Chapter 1:

It was that time of the year in Magnolia. The Streets had a thick blanket of snow and every house had lights draped across them. As you can see, its Christmas. Or in other words, Lucy's favourite time of the year. Everything about it made her feel so joyful, from the cozy warm sweaters decorated with reindeer or snow flakes to how the streets sparkled every morning after heavy snow fall.

But most of all she loved how she could celebrate the festivities with all of her friends in the guild. Unlike her previous Christmas's spent with the house servants.

It was morning of December 24 and Lucy had all of her presents for her friends lined up beside the table in her room. They all were wrapped in a different colour and had ribbons tied in perfect bows (which mira-san had to help her with) that glimmered under the light coming through her windows.

Lucy woke and shivered as she pulled the covers from herself and got ready for the day. She immediately headed for the bath room to wash up.

"Luce, Oi, luce" shouted the rosy haired mage. He tapped on her bedroom window several times before entering along with Blue companion.

Lucy came out of the bath room wearing only a towel and a toothbrush in her mouth. As soon as she saw Natsu her eyes widened and a blush crept onto her face.

"N-Natsu! I told you to knock before you come in!" She managed to spit out before she ran into the bathroom grabbing the first thing to wear on the way. Her blush deepening as she shut the door behind herself.

"Hey I did knock this time!" Natsu said back in the most casual tone he could manage. And he quickly turned himself to hide his blush from happy who he knows would not let him forgot it.

Natsu immedeatly hopped onto Lucy's bed as he waited for her to finish getting ready.

"So Natsu" Happy started in a hushed tone. "since its Christmas and all…..do you think you will tell Lucy that you know, you liiiiiiiiiiiiiiiike her" Happy eagerly asked.

"W-what" Natsu started to stammer, "Umm well I….Wait what does that even have to do with Cristmas?" Natsu ended in a harsh and defensive tone

"Well, because of people…..getting together…..and….well it doesn't matter are you going to tell her or what?" Happy begged Natsu.

"I-I don't know…." Natsu's face was now pinker then his hair. But before Happy could bug him anymore lucy came out in a red turtleneck that came down to her thighs, white tight pants and her black boots with a slight heel.

"Here" Lucy handed him a pile of presents "help me carry some of these to the guild". She ran to the other side of the room to gather the rest of the presents in her arms.

"Geez Lucy, how many people did you get presents for" Natsu said playfully looked down at all of the little perfectly wrapped gifts.

Lucy giggled "Not really that many people, I just went a little overboard with the amount of presents" They walked downstairs and Lucy put on her White scarf to match her pants and white gloves and threw on her black jacket.

Natsu couldn't help but notice how damn good she looked in that outfit. But he shook the thought from his head. They got outside and started heading towards the guild.

"So Luce, what are you doing Christmas morning?" Natsu asked not keeping his eye off the road in front of him, making sure he doesn't slip on any of the ice.

"Oh I don't know, I'll probably just wait until the afternoon to go over to the guild. So I guess nothing really" before Lucy could have a chance to say anything else

"Well since your not doing anything, and I obviously don't have anywhere to go maybe we could spend it together?" Natsu said as quickly.

"Sure, that sounds great" Lucy turned to hide her blush

"YEAH!" Natsu got so exited he almost dropped all of the presents. He stumbled a bit but regained his composure and gave her his traditional canine smile along with a dust of rose across his cheeks. Lucy chuckled at his clumsiness and gave him a sweet smile back.

The pair arrived at the guild in the early afternoon. Mira was at the bar as usual cleaning the glasses and preparing for the celebration tonight. Off to one side sat Wendy, Charle and several other of the guild members. But most were still out and about, whether it was rushing around for last minute presents or helping Mira-san prepare for tonight.

Natsu and Lucy walked over to the beautifully decorated evergreen tree and placed the presents among many others.

"hey, we have some time to kill how about we go in to the town, they must have a festival going on, I mean it is Christmas eve. And they have festivals for about everything around here" exclaimed Lucy as she pulled Natsu by the hand and ran out the door.

As soon as they got outside they noticed how much the wind had picked up since they had gotten there.

"We were only in there for a few minutes what the hell happened?" Natsu complained.

"Oh, Natsu its just a little wind come on lets go" tuging on his and and giving him a smile that he knows he cant say No to.

"Um I think I'll stay back here guys" Happy waved. Well he only is 10 pounds he would probably blow away anyways, Natsu thought to himself.

They started to head out on the street. It was bustling with people trying to get through the wind and snow and go home to their family's.

"So, did you and Igneel celebrate Christmas together" Lucy looked up at Natsu

"Naah, I didn't even know what it was until I came here. How about you, did you get as exited as you are now about Chritmas?" Natsu gave her a smile knowing how cheerful she gets every time December rolls around.

"Ya….we celebrated Christmas at home. After mom died it was never the same though. We had a tree and presents. But we didn't actually celebrate. Christmas is suppose to be around the people you love" as she said that she quickly looked up at Natsu and they locked eyes for a quick seconde but she continued on "and I just spent Christmas with the house servants. I was never this exited I just… I love it here because its so nice how we all get together like a real family should"

Just as she finished they arrived to the shopping district and just as Lucy said there was a festival. Lucy hoped to herself that it wouldn't get any worse then it is now. And if just on cue she was hit by a gust of wind that startled her quite a bit.

"damn, why didn't I wear an extra layer" Lucy thought to her self. She felt herself shiver and crossed her arms. Natsu immediately and wrapped his arm around her shoulder and pulled her in close to him, like the automatic thing to do. It caught both of them by surprise. Natsu couldn't believe he had even done such a thing. How could he have been so brave when he blushes when almost every time he see's her

"N-natsu?" Lucy started and looked up at him.

"Um, you eh looked cold so" before he could finish she snaked her arm around his waist and leaned in farther. They were both so relived that they couldn't see each others face, they were both blushing madly.

"what did I just do, why is she letting me put my arm around her, is she just cold or does she actually…no she's probably just cold" Natsu's thoughts rushed through his head.

They had been walking for a while, just people watching and looking at the tents that the festival set up. Sadly most of them had to be shut down because of the winds but there was still a good amount open. Natsu noticed a tent that sold hot chocolate. He remembered Lucy said that she used to always drink that around Christmas time.

"Luce wait here I'll be right back im going to get some of that hot chocolate stuff you like" Natsu said giving her his canine smile

"oh ok, sounds great" Lucy gave him a smile as he walked off. And as soon as he left she felt so cold again and retreated back to crossing her arms to shield herself from some of the winds. As he walked off to wait in line for them she noticed a blonde haired girl walking along with the croud of strangers. She had almost passed her before the girl also recognized Lucy

"Hi Lucy" Said Lisanna with a wide smile.

"Hey Lisanna, what are you doing here? Oh, a little last minute shopping I see" Lucy smiled as she looked down at the cluster of different coloured bags filled with trinkets and jewellery.

Lisanna let out a small laugh "Yes, it seems so. I didn't realize how close Christmas was and I kept putting off gift shopping, and now here I am"

Lucy looked behind Lisanna her arms still crossed from the cold and saw Natsu making his way through the crowd with two cups of hot chocolate in his hands. He handed Lucy her drink and wrapped his arm around her again. It had only been a few minutes but she missed his warmth. Lucy noticed some of the light from Lisanna's eyes fade when Natsu did that. She Had forgotten that Lisanna and Natsu had been an Item. But its not like were an item or anything I was just cold so he put his arm around me that's…..that's all it is…Im sure he doesn't want anything more. Lucy sighed.

"Oh Lisanna, what are you doing here in this weather" Noticing that the weather has gotten even worse he held Lucy a little closer.

Lisanna lifted her shopping bags and smilled making it quite obvious on why she was here.

"well, I best be going now. I'll see you two at the guild later" she started to walk away and waved goodbye.

"See ya around Lisanna" Lucy said trying to raise her voice above the winds.

They both spotted a near by bench and decided to sit for a while.

"Thanks for the Hot chocolate, I cant belive you remembered something like that" She looked at him with soft eyes that made his heart melt

He smilled back "No problem, Luce."

Natsu Still couldn't believe that this was happening. They have been close before, but nothing like this, nothing this….intimate. But what did it mean? Does it even mean anything?

They stayed like this for a long time. Sipping on their hot chococlate, and enjoying each others company. But the sky begun to darken and that had to return to the guild.

When they arrived at the guild it was its normal and loud self. There were even more decorations then when they had left this afternoon. And they could smell the food cooking in the kitchen. Even after the had entered the guild they didn't realize they were still holding on to each other despite the fact that they weren't out in the minus 15 temperatures anymore.

But it didn't last very long, not while Grey was there picking fights with Natsu. And now the guild looked normal. Cana was drinking, Natsu and Gray were fighting, Happy was ogling Charle. This is how Lucy wanted all of her Christmas's to be spent.

Lucy started to stare off into space when she noticed that Lisanna sat beside her.

"Her Lucy" Lisanna started and before Lucy could even say her greeting Lisanna started "So you and Natsu huh?"

Lucy was taken by such a surprise, a blush crept on her face and she didn't know what to say

"what! No no, I was just cold and he was um there and" Lucy was so embarrassed and Lisanna stopped her before it got any worse and gave out a light chuckle

"don't worry Lucy, he likes you too. I cant tell by the way he looks at you" Lisanna said with a saddened expression on her face.

"R-really he likes me back" she whispered to herself.

Just before anything could get any more awkward between the two girls Mira-san called everyone's attention to announce the start of their celebration.

"OH YEAH IS THAT SO PINKY"

"YEAH YOU HEARD ME ICE BRAIN!"

Natsu and Gray were at it again.

"Guys, cant we just enjoy the celebration together without any fighting" Lucy pushed the two apart.

Natsu snarled at Gray but took a step back.

"Really that's it" Gray was still egging him on.

"OKAY THAT'S IT!" and with that Natsu turned and ran at Gray with full force.

"*sigh* I guess there's nothing we can do about that" Lucy walked off and waited by the bar and talked with Mira-san while she waited it out.

"Lu-chan, how are you spending Christmas morning tomorrow?" Asked Mira with her usual gentle tone.

"Im not quite sure, Natsu and I are probably just going head over to the Guild to exchange gifts with everyone else" Lucy shrugged, tiredly waiting for Natsu and Gray to tire themselves out.

"Well, I know the guild is getting together as usual to open presents together in the afternoon, but you and Natsu are spending Christmas morning together" Mira said with a knowing smile

Lucy was too tired to realize what Mira was getting at, and just shrugged it off. It was only 11:30 but she felt so tiered from all the food and festivities of today, she had know idea how Mira was still up and about and absolutely no clue how Natsu and Gray were even fighting!

Her eyes felt so heavy, maybe if she just laid her head down for a few minutes…

"Oi, Luce" Natsu was gently shaking her awake.

"MmmmMMM" Lucy murmured half asleep

"Luce wake up we have to go home" Natsu said gently trying not to disturb her to much

But she still wouldn't wake up. "Okay Luce we'll do this your way." Natsu muttured

He lifted her from the stool as gently as he could manage. He nudged the guild door open and luckily the storm had stopped before he would have to carry her home in the middle of a blizzard. He got a couple of concerned looks from people on the street. Who wouldn't look. A strange boy with pink hair carrying an unconscious young blond in the middle of the night through 2 feet of snow.

He didn't have a key so he merely went the way he always went, through the window. He laid her down on her bed and shook the snow from his pants. She started to stir and slowly opened her eyes.

Natsu let out a weak laugh "you wake up now?" and smiled down at her.

"what? where am I" she said in a raspy voice and looked around at the familiar room.

"did….did you carry me all the way here" here head still on the pillow where he put her

"yup" He stated, beginning to rub the sleep from his eyes.

"wait, where is happy" Lucy started to look around for the small blue cat

"I think he turned in a while ago" OH CRAP I hope he turned in a while ago, he has to be in here somewhere he knew we were coming Natsu thought not wanting to worry her. Thankfully he spotted him curled up on the chair beside Lucy's desk.

Lucy let out a yawn "You get to sleep, I'll be down stairs. Gnight' Luce" Natsu waved goodnight

"goodnight" Lucy murmured.

so does he like me, he did carry me all the way home in 2 feet of snow. He always could have just woken me up. And what about what Lisanna said. She's known him ever since he was a kid. Wouldn't she be able to tell? Lucy mulled over the thought of her and Natsu together. Or even if Natsu liked her, she knew that she couldn't tell herself she didn't have feelings for him, she just couldn't.

Hi guys, the Next chapter will be out really soon. Since this is my first Fanfiction I would really appreciate if people told me what I can improve on and give me some advice. Thank you so much xoxo
