12:30 AM
Me: Okay! Can't wait! It's gonna be so much fun!
I smile as I texted Mira.
Mira: Ikr! We'll see you tomorrow or later today then!
Me: Yep! Oh and thxs for invitng me!
Mira: Of course!
Me: Okey! Good-night!
Mira: Good-night!
I sigh as I turn off my phone. Well I better set my alarm to 6:30 so I have time to pack later!
~Later that same day...~
Whew! That was a long trip! I'm finally here again in Magnolia! I looked down at my phone. "9:35 am and not a moment to lose." I said as I grab my luggage and walk out of the train, taking a deep breath in.
I then started to walk forward until I saw the Fairy Tail Guild Hall infront of my eyes. The excited person I am, I sprinted to my destination and excused myself from bumping into people. I almost made that old lady fall over her kid! Whoops!
~2 more minutes later...~
*knock *knock
"Hello?" I asked opening the tall heavy doors of the guild hall. "It's me. I was wondering..."
"Why are all the lights off?"
"MERRY CHRISTMAS!!!!!" exclaimed everyone as the lights were turned on.
"Wow!" I exclaimed, looking at the inside of the guild hall. All the decorations were neatly created and hung everywhere. And the Christmas tree with lights look big and beautiful as ever!
"HAPPY BIRTHDAY!"
"Wut?" I said turning towards Gray.
"Firebrain dared me to say it!!" Gray complains, pointing to the rolling-on-the-floor-laughing-out-loud fire dragon slayer.
"I-I... thought it... w-would be... really funny... though!!" Natsu says between laughs.
"Well it isn't!!" Gray shot back.
"Oh, really?" asks Natsu who was now at Gray's height. "Says the annoying idiot who drew on my face last night."
"Oh yeah, says the more-annoying idiot who almost drew on Lucy's face the other night!"
"NATSU YOU DID WHAT???!!"
"GRAY-SAMA LOVES LOVE-RIVAL!!!! LOVE-RIVAL MUST DIE!!"
"I DON'T LOVE HIM, JUVIA!!"
"DON'T YOU TALK BACK TO ME LOVE-RIVAL!!"
"YOU WANNA GO, ICE PRINCESS, BECAUSE I CAN TOTALLY KICK YOUR ASS RIGHT HERE, RIGHT NOW!!!"
"OKAY, FIREBRAIN, YOU ASKED FOR IT!!"
"Ice make, floor!"
"Fire dragon iron fist!"
I silently watch the four mages bicker and dog-fight for a few moments until Miss Mirajane walks up to me.
"Hey, Jasmine! I thought this might come in handy." she sweetly says, handing me a big, heavy book.
"Thanks." I replied receiving the book and casually started to walk towards the four mages.
"MAKA-CHOP!"
"MAKA-CHOP!"
"MAKA-CHOP!"
"MAKA-CHOP!"
"Well, that takes care of that!" I said proudly looking at the four mages I 'Maka-chopped' who were now sulking and clutching their throbbing head.
I then clear my throat, "Thanks for the welcome everybody! I can't wait to celebrate Christmas with you!"
The whole guild raises their fists and cheers.
_________________
"WHAD'YA MEAN NO ONE GOT PRESENTS??!!" I yelled in astonishment.
"Well you see, I accidently forgot to tell them to get presents since we were so busy getting ready for the party." Mira responds nervously.
I rub my temples and sigh," Aye-ya-yie..."
All of a sudden Asuka pulls on my sleeve, making me croutch down to her level. She them whispers something into my ear.
I give her a small smile and nod.
"I suggest we play a game." I said.
Everyones' eyes lit up, "What sort of game?" asks Wendy.
"Drumroll please..."
"Gift War!"
Everyone sweatdrops except Natsu.
"ALRIGHT! NOW I GET T-" I suddenly Maka-chopped the dragon slayer's head.
"No, Natsu! It does not include fighting Gray, Erza or Gildarts to the death." I said giving him a scary death glare.
Natsu sulks clutching his head again.
"Asuka's idea was to combine receiving and opening gifts into a game," I said. "So I thought everyone should participate in 'Gift War!' It's really fun! I play it with my family at home every year during the holidays."
Everyone exchanges smiles and small conversations with each other.
"Alright." Erza says. "But how do we play?"
I smile, "I would like everyone to buy or create a gift. The people who are bringing a gift are the only ones who are participating in Gift War. The gift can be as crazy and as silly as you want really! But, you have to choose wisely. If you don't like the gift you are giving, nobody will like it as well. Also, you must NOT tell anyone what you are contributing to the game, so that means you have to wrap it up. Got it?" I said.
Everyone nods.
"Is that all?" Levy asks writing everything down.
"Nope! There's more to the game, but I would like to keep it as a surprize!"
"Alright! You've got the whole day to buy or create one gift!" I said. "Starting..."
"NOW!"
As soon as I finished my sentence, everyone quickly made their separate ways.
I giggle to myself, "That was faster than I expected."
___________________
Lucy's POV:
A gift... A gift... A gift... What would I want for Christmas? Hmmm...
"Hey Lucy?"
I keep walking forward but turn towards the fire dragon slayer on my left, "What is it, Natsu?"
"Can we go to downtown together?"
"Why would you want to go there?"
"To buy a special present for 'Gift War,' duh!"
"O-Okay. Just let me get my wallet first. I see my hou-" "No time, Luce!" Natsu interuppts grabbing my hand and dashing the other way.
"Let go, N-Natsu!! Ow! Your squeezing too hard!"
"Sorry. Can't. I have to get to the shop before it sells out the item I'm looking for!"
"Well can't you go any slower?!" I said, almost out of breath. "I can't keep up with your pace!"
All of a sudden Natsu stops in his tracks, making my face crash into his back. I rub my nose, "Ow?" I said waiting for an apology.
But no apology came when he crotches down showing his back infront of me, "Hop on."
"Eh? No. You are not going to carry me."
"She liiiiiiikeeessss him!"
"Shut up, you stupid cat!"
"Would you just hurry and hop on?"
I roll my eyes, "Whatever." I said and climbed onto Natsu's back.
"Hang on tight." "Don't you worry, I will!" I replied nervously.
He lifts me up and started sprinting forwards with Happy tailing along. Wow, I never knew he can be this fast. I glanced at Natsu's face. He looks really eager to buy this gift. I wonder why he is so head-over-heels for this item. Is it really that important to him?A sudden smile curls upon my lips as I close my eyes and snuggle in the back of his warm neck for comfort.
Guess I have to wait until we get there.
Gray's POV:
"Dammit!" I yelled punching the coffee table with my fist. I just can't seem to think of anything to give for Gift War.
"I-Is G-Gray-sama okay?" asks Juvia who was sitting next to me.
"Yes Juvia, everything's fine." I lied, resting my back against the couch.
"Does Gray-sama want any ideas for a gift?" I turn towards Juvia on my right, "O-Okay. What ideas do you have in mind?"
"WOW! GRAY-SAMA ACTUALLY WANTS TO HEAR FROM JUVIA!!! THIS MAKES ME SO HAPPY!!!"
I sweatdrop at the crazy water girl.
She stops swooning and takes out her phone, "I have a list in Notes."
It took her a few moments to get into Notes and begin what she wanted to say, "Ideal gifts for Christmas, by Juvia."
I nod, "Go on."
She smiles at me and continues, "A body pillow of Juvia in a bikini for Gray-sama, Juvia dolls for Gray-sama, a bundle of warm scarfs for Gray-sama and two big boxes of underwear for Gray-sama!"
I stare at her in shock, "WHY ARE ALL YOU IDEAS SO WEIRD?! AND WHY ARE THEY ALL FOR ME?!"
"Gray-sama doesn't like the gifts that I want to give him? Juvia feels sad." Juvia responds looking down at her lap.
I put a hand on her shoulder, "Hey look, I'm sorry I said that. Don't get so worked up about it. I honestly wouldn't mind what you give me. Even if it's a little... unexpected."
All of a sudden Juvia jumps on me giving me a big hug, "Thanks Gray-sama. You really are a great guy!!"
I smirk and hug her back, patting her head, "Sure thing."
After a few minutes of Juvia squeezing me to death, I push her off me and got up from my couch.
I then made my way to the door and open it, "Now if you mind, I would like to research on my computer in peace, please."
Juvia was staring at me as I gesture for her to get out of my bedroom, "S-Sure thing, Gray-sama." she responded as she got up from the couch.
As she was passing me towards the open door she smiles and gives me a quick peck on the cheek then waddles her way outside, "Bye, my Gray-sama!" she calls back.
"Bye." I respond smirking.
Levy's POV:
"How about this one, Gajeel?" I exclaim pointing at a DIY picture frame from my DIY book.
"Eh. I don't care, Shrimp."
Hmph! Gajeel is always so negative about my opinions. I already asked him about 36 things and he hasn't comment anything good about my choosing.
I write down the DIY picture frame idea and then took a glance at Gajeel who was searching some stuff up on his Ipad, "Did you find anything to give yet?" I ask with curiosity.
Wait. Is that?
"WHY ARE YOU LOOKING AT THE GUILD'S EMBARASSING PHOTOS??!!" I yelled at the dragon slayer, hiding my red blush.
He turns to look at me, "I just thought it would be funny that's all."
"Ugh. Gajeel! You know there are some pictures of us that weren't suposed to be posted on the internet. Now that I think about it, how did those pictures get on the internet anyway?"
"Beats me. Hey! Look at this photo, Shrimp!"
I glance at the Ipad. It was a picture of Natsu dancing like a maniac. I could see an evil grin appear upon Gajeel's face.
"Pantherlily, can you please tell Gajeel not to search up embarassing stuff on the internet?" I ask the black cat who was sitting in the chair reading a book. "Why are you asking me?" the cat responds.
"Well, he's looking at the picture of you in the bath."
"WHAT??!!" Lily exclaims snatching the Ipad away from the laughing dragon slayer's hands.
"Who even took this photo?!"
"How should I know," I replied. "All these pictures are from the internet. I have no clue who would post them up... on... there..." my voice trails off and my eyes grow large.
"And post! There all done."
"GAJEEL!!" I yelled as a red aura surround me. "SO YOU WERE THE ONE WHO POSTED ALL THOSE EMBARASSING PICTURES ON THE INTERNET???!!!"
*click!
"And post! Wow Shrimp, you look cute when your mad."
"GAJEEL!! I WILL- wait what? D-did you just call me cute?" I said as I feel my cheeks warm up from my blush.
"Eh?" I see a bright blush dusted on Gajeel's cheeks. "No."
I giggle to myself, "Yes, you did."
"How do you know? You were yelling at me."
"I knew because I'm smart."
"Says who?"
"Says me."
It then came to my senses that our faces were so close to each other that our lips were a few inches apart. I quickly back away, "Umm... sorry about that, Gajeel."
"Whatever."
"Got it!" exclaims Lily.
"Got what?" asked Gajeel.
"This!" replied Pantherlily showing us a picture.
The blush rose to my face as I touch the side of my cheeks. Gajeel smacks his mouth shut with a slight blush. It was a picture, that Lily took of a few minutes ago, of Gajeel and I together. But it was a close-up, so it looks like we were almost k-kissing.
"WHAT THE HELL LILY!" Gajeel and I exclaim in fury at the cat, who was laughing at us histercally.
"Aw, c'mon you guys! You should thank me."
"WHY?!"
I see a evil smirk appear on Lily's face, "Because I already posted the picture on the internet."
Natsu's POV:
"Lucy? Hey, Luce! Wake up!!!"
"Huh?"
"You were asleep."
"I was? Probably because your neck was so warm I, *yawn, drifted off to sleep."
"She liiiiikkkkkesss you!"
"LUCY KICK!" Luce exclaims kicking Happy in the stomach with her leg. She then goes back to snuggling in the back of my neck and her grip becomes tighter than before.
I ignore the warmness rising to my cheeks, "Okay, well anyways, we're here!" I exclaim.
Her eyes shot open and jumps off my back, "Yay!... Eh? We came all this way just to go to the magic shop?"
"Yep!" I responded opening the door for Lucy. "I just hope they didn't sell it though, since it's Chirstmas Eve."
The three of us went inside and notice that there were only a few people shopping. Lucy walks the other way, while Happy and I made our way to the counter where an old guy was watching us with a smile, "Hello there. How may I help you?" asks the old man.
"Hey gramps, we need one of those 'Magic Orbs' that everyone has been talking about."
I could tell the old guy knew what I said because he already left to go get it from the back.
"Hey, Natsu! Look what I found!" exclaims Lucy.
Happy and I turn around to see Lucy holding a small, black box in her hands, "What is it?" I ask. "More keys?"
"Nope." she replys as she opens the box revealing a jewellery set, with a boring colour of earrings, a necklace and a bracelet.
"And I'm suposed to be excited, why?"
She rolls her eyes playfully, "Natsu! Don't you see? Whenever I put these on at the same time, they instantly change my outfit and colour to what I want it to be."
My eyes light up, "So it can change me into a dragon costume?!"
Lucy and Happy sweatdrop.
"You are already a dragon, Natsu." Happy said.
"Aw, yeah. Forgot."
Lucy smacks the side of my head. "What was that for?!" I yell at the blonde.
She giggles at me, "For being so absent-minded all of a sudden."
Happy and I laugh along with her.
"Here you go, young man." says the old guy from behind me.
I turn around to see the Magic Orb on the table. "Thanks gramps." I said as I gave him the money.
"Aw. Too bad. I forgot that I didn't bring my wallet." whines Lucy. "Next time I suposed."
"Hey, Luce. If you want, I can pay that for you."
Her eyes grew huge, "N-Natsu! I-I couldn't ask you to buy this for me! It's too expensive!"
"It's okay! I've got a lot of money with me anyways!" I said snatching the black box from her hands. "I can afford it."
"B-B-But N-Natsu-" "Don't worry! It's Christmas Eve! I rather give this season than get." I replied putting the money down on the counter.
"Says the one who wanted a truck load of presents last year." Luce mumbles while rolling her eyes.
The old man gives me a bag and I put the box inside. I then give the bag to Luce while holding my Gift War present in my hand. "Come again!" exclaims the old man.
"We will. Thanks!" I said exiting the shop with Happy and Lucy trailing along.
~6 more minutes later...~
"Luce?"
"Luce?"
"Hmmm...?"
"You okay?" replied Happy. "You've been quiet for about six minutes."
"Yeah." I added.
"I can't believe you would buy me that." She mumbles under her breath.
"What?" I questioned.
"I can't believe you would buy me that jewellery!" She says with a bit more volume in her voice.
"What? You didn't want it?" I said a little hurt.
"No. Of course I wanted it."
"Then why are you getting so mad?"
"I'm not mad," her voice trails off. "I just don't understand why you, of all people, would buy me this." Luce says as she shows me the bag in her hand.
"Because I like you." I mumble under my breath.
"What? What did you say?"
"Nothing."
"I know you said something!" anger in her voice beginning to come out.
"No, I didn't!"
"Yes, you did!"
"No, I didn't!"
"Yes, you did!"
"No, I didn't!"
"I like you too."
"No, I didn't!"
"Wait, what?"
Did she...?
It was silent for a few moments until Happy chimed in again, "You liiikkkkkkeee each other!"
"SHUT UP!" Lucy yells kicking Happy in the stomach, again.
I then sigh and smirk to myself.
Thank-you, my Lucy.

Author-chan's POV:
I wonder how everyone else was doing. It was quiet in the Guild hall, even though I may encounter a few mages running in and out every few minutes.
I was sitting down at one of the tables in the dining room working on my DIY 'Gift War' present.
I hum to myself as I glue on one final piece, "There. I hope that stays on well." I mumbled to myself.
I then wrap my present in pretty Christmas wrapping paper. Once I was finished, I grab my 'Gift War' gift and I made my way to the gigantic Christmas tree the guild put up. I place my presents under the tree hoping no one will notice it's there.
"I CAN'T BELIEVE YOU DID THAT LILY!!!"
Sounds like Gajeel and Levy were yelling at Pantherlily about something. But I don't know what though. I slowly made my way towards the library where more yelling was to be heard.
I kick open the door, "Why are you guys yelling in here?"
"Jasmine!" exclaims Levy. "Pantherlily just-"
"Posted an image of you two almost kissing? Yeah, I hear things real well." I smirk while crossing my arms.
Gajeel and Levy stares at me wide-eyed. "Anyhoo, I hope you figured out what you are contributing to 'Gift War,' because we only have two more hours until the party starts." I said.
"WHAT???!!!"
"I take that as a no. Hurry up then!"
"Okay!" excliamed a frantic Levy who was flipping a ton of more pages in her book.
Gajeel didn't look as frantic as Levy did, proabably because he was still really pissed off that Lily posted the picture on the internet.
"Okay! See you guys later!" I chirped heading out of the library.
~1 and a half hour later after the party has started...~
"Mmmm... This is so good!" I exclaim as I constantly chewed on Erza's strawberry cake she finished making a half-hour ago.
"I'm glad you like it!" Erza replies taking another big bite. "Do you think I may have put a little too much sugar in the whipped cream?"
"Nope," I replied as I gulp down another tasty bite of the delicious cake. "It takes divine!"
"Thanks!"
All of a sudden someone taps on my shoulder from behind, "Hey, Jasmine. Are we going to start the game now?"
I turn around to find Mira holding her gift and mine in her hands, "Of course!" I said, finishing the last piece of cake.
"Everyone!" I announced. "We will start playing 'Gift War' right now!"
The guild cheers getting their presents from under the tree. I greatly accepted my gift from Mira's hands and started to explain how 'Gift War' works.
"Mira will be handing out pieces of paper in the hat to all of you," I said, gesturing Mira to hand out the hat. "Each piece of paper has a number and don't tell anyone what you got. There are 15 people playing. The goal is to NOT get number 1. That's the unlucky number in the game. The person who has 15 is the lucky one and you'll see why in a minute. Anyways, who has number one?" I said, picking the last number from the hat.
Everyone looks at their number.
"Sh!t! I have number 1!" Gray whines. "What do I do?"
"You can pick one of the gifts in the middle of our circle."
"Okay." Gray replies making his way to the center of the circle. He picks up a large cardboard box with red and gold wrapping paper and shakes it, "What's in here?!"
"Is that the one you want?" I ask.
He then eyes on something else and picks it up. It was a small box with blue snowflakes on it. The present was about the size of his hand, "I'll take this one! Now what do I do?"
I smile, "Open it!"
Gray does without told and opens the present. He gasps. It was a Juvia doll, made by 'you-know-who.' She was dressed up in a cute red dress holding a red sack full of mini presents.
"I think I know who made this." Gray mumbles. "Do I keep it?"
"Yep." I said. "Only until someone steals it from you."
Everyone looks at me with confused looks. "Don't worry. I'll explain when number 2 comes up. Who is number 2?"
"I am!" chirped Wendy getting up from her seat.
"Before you get a present from the middle, would you like to steal the present from Gray so he can open another present, or you open another present?"
She glances at Gray who had a pleading look in his eyes. She smirks at him, then turns to me, "I will open a present." she says and grabs the present with rainbow Christmas trees on the front.
"Huh...? It's another box?"
"Open it!" exclaims Carla."
"I'm trying to." Wendy says, figeting with the tape. "Here." I said giving her a pair of scissors. "Thanks." she says and quickly opens it.
"What is it?!" asks Levy.
"It's a hair bow!" Wendy excliams holding up a pretty silver bow with diamonds on the front. I glance at Romeo who was sitting next to his father. I could tell he was blushing. Great gift, Romeo.
All the girls "Oohed" the hair bow.
"Okay, who's number 3?" I questioned.
"Oh, me!" Levy exclaims.
"Remember you can steal or open a present. It's your choice!" I said.
"Hmmm..." she says making her way to the middle. She then starts shaking a small rectangular present. "Open it!" says Natsu. "Okay. Hold on!" Levy says smiling.
"It's a... huh? Mens underwear?" Who in the world..."
"Ahahahaha!!! Mens underwear??!! Why??!!" laughs Natsu who was litterally rolling on the floor.
"Seriously? Elfman, was that you?!" Levy asks.
"Are you kidding? Those sizes are way too small for a man like me!"
Everyone bursts into laughter.
"Wait, there's something inside the packaging." exclaims Levy as she opens the plactic cover. "It's a picture frame with 300 worth of jewels stucked to the back."
Gray spits out his water, "Aww! I couldv'e got that one!" Levy giggles, "To late!" she says giving him a 'loser' sign on her forehead.
"Is there a picture?" asks Mira.
"Let's see... pft. Ahahahahahahahahaha!!!!" Levy exclaims rolling on the floor. The rest of us gives her confused looks. I pick up the picture frame and glanced at the photo, "Ahahahahahahahaha!!!!" I laugh.
"What's the picture?" asks Natsu.
"Ahaha... YOU NATSU!!!" I said showing him the pic of when Natsu was dancing like a maniac on the table. He was even half-naked wearing a toliet seat around his neck while doing it to. Was he drunk that day? I guess I'll never know.
"AHHHH!! WHAT THE HELL??!! WHO TOOK THAT PICTURE ANYWAY?!" yelled Natsu while the rest of us were laughing our heads off.
"I don't know, but it's really funny!!" I said. "Who gave that?"
"I did." Gajeel responds with a smirk.
"GAJEEL YOU BASTARD!!!" yells Natsu who was running towards Gajeel. Mira Maka-chops Natsu's head since she was closer enough to reach the fire dragon slayer. "I'm beginning to enjoy this punishment, Jasmine!" exclaims Mira.
"Tell that to Maka Alburn herself! She's amazing!" I said. "Anyways, who is number 4?"
"I am!" Lisanna says.
"Would you like to steal or open a present?" I ask her.
"Hmmmm... I would rather open a present." She says as she grabs a Christmas bag with tissue paper on top. She opens it and gasps, "No way!"
"What? What is it?" questioned Erza who was so hyped up.
"It's a 'Magic Orb!'" exclaimed Lisanna.
"Hey! I was the one who bought that!" said Natsu who sat up in his seat.
"I love it!" she winks at the fire dragon slayer. "Thanks, Natsu!"
"Your welcome." he replies.
I took a glance at Lucy. She looks like she wanted to attack someone, and by that someone I meant Lisanna. I was pissed off too, since I really ship Nalu so hard.
"Ahem," I said clearing my throat. "Who is number 5?"
"I am, Jasmine," exclaims Mira who was walking towards Lisanna. "I'll take that!"
"Aw, sis! Why?" Lisanna whines. "Lis." Mira said, giving her a death glare. Lisanna shudders in fear as Mira takes the Magic Orb from her sister's hands.
I sigh of relief. I told Mira the rules to 'Gift War' when she was helping me gather the materials for my Gift War present. Thank god she was playing smart.
"So, does that mean I open another gift?" Lisanna asked. I nod, "Yup! And you can't steal back from Mira."
"Okay." Lisanna says opening a large gift wrap. "What is it?" asks Mira. "It's a... rocking reindeer? What am I suposed to do with a rocking reindeer?"
"Ride it?" chuckles Natsu. Lisanna turns to look at the snickering dragon slayer, "Ha ha. Very funny, Natsu."
Natsu shuts up and looks the other way. "Well, I guess I have to keep it." Lisanna says, smiling.
"Who gave that? It's really nice!" asks Asuka who was eyeing the reindeer ever since Lisanna opened the package. "I did!" exclaimed Wendy.
"Cool!" I said. "Now, who is number-" "6! That's me, Jasmine!" Asuka exclaims jumping up and down. "I want to steal the rocking reindeer from Lisanna!"
Lisanna places the small rocking reindeer infront of Asuka, "Thank-you Lis!" Asuka says.
"Your welcome." smiles Lisanna as she opens another present, "It's... toe socks and a body messager?"
The guild and I burst out laughing.
"Oh my god! Who gave that?" laughs Lucy.
"I d-did!" laughs Gray who was holding his stomach becuase of laughing too hard. "I-I couldn't think of anything else to give."
"Thanks, Gray!" Lisanna exclaims.
"Okay, who's number 7?"
"O-Oh me!!" yells Natsu as he walks to the center where all the gifts are. "Hmmm..." he says to himself as he was looking at the gifts the others got, "Eh, no. No. No. Possibly. No. And No. I guess I will open a present then!"
Natsu then shakes all the gifts, "Hurry up!" complains Gajeel. "We don't have all day, y'know!" "Hold on! I want the best present... Ah ha! This one!" Natsu exclaims, holding up a Christmas bag full of tissue paper. The gift was decorated with glitter and I adore the bag. "Who gave that present?" I ask. "I love the bag."
"I did, Jasmine," Lucy says smiling. "Thanks!"
I nod, "Your welcome!" I take a glance at Lisanna. She was frowning. Yes!
"What is it?" asks Happy. Natsu smiles, "It's... hand soap and towels?" he says, turning towards the blonde. "I know. Sorry. I couldn't think of anything to give." Lucy responded, sadly.
"I..... LOVE IT!! Thanks Luce!" he says giving Lucy a big hug.
"Y-Your welcome?" reponds Lucy who was hugging the dragon slayer back.
The rest of us awed (except Lisanna) while Mira, Levy, Juvia, Wendy, Erza and I squel so hard and took millions of photos.
"They liiiiikkkkkkkkkkeeee each other!!" cooed Happy.
"WHAT THE HELL YOU GUYS??!!WE ARE NOT A COUPLE!!!"
"Yet!" added Mira taking more photos.
"Alright! We get it!" Lisanna claps for our attention. "Let's get back to the game, alright?"
Mira, Levy, Juvia, Wendy, Erza and I give Lisanna a nasty glare as we took our seat. She ignores us and says, "Who's number 8?"
"Oh, that's me!" I exclaim.
Heh heh. I already know exactly what I wanted to do. I pick up the present that was cover in shiny gift wrap. Wow! It's heavier than I imagined it to be! Maybe beacuse of of the glass platter inside.
"What is it?" asks Lucy as she plays with Natsu's sweet salmon hair, who was sitting on the floor leaning against Lucy's legs for support.
Oh mah gawd! They are acting so coupleish!! The feels are getting to me!
I smile, "It's... aw nice! Thanks Erza!"
Erza turns to look at me, "You're welcome!"
"What is it?" Natsu said, repeating Lucy's words.
"It's a strawberry cake with cute strawberry flavored tree cookies!" I said.
"Typical Erza!" shouts Mira.
The guild and I laugh once more.
I take a bite of the strawberry flavoured cookie tree. Holy crap! This is so good! I offered some to Wendy, who was sitting on my left, and Mira on my right.
We had so much fun playing 'Gift War,' I could tell the Guild was enjoying my game.
Romeo was number 9 and got a cool remote-control car, that was given by Elfman.
Elfman was number 10 and received Asuka's gift, which were mugs painted by Asuka herself. Elfman had no idea what to do with her gift, so he said he was just use it as a 'beer' mug instead.
Juvia was number 11 and received sparkly blue alcohol that was given and stolen by Cana herself (she was number 12), and ended up with my gift which was a collage of the whole Guild I decorated and pasted on a giant canvas. Hey, I like arts and crafts okay?
Gajeel was number 13 and ended with Levy's gift, a book of weapons and torture. I think that was the only book Levy couldn't keep because of all the horrific stuff the book contains. But Gajeel seemed to like it and gave Levy a pat on the head.
Lucy was number 14 and stole the Magic Orb from Mira's hands. I told everyone that you can only steal the same gift twice and that's done. Mira and I were so happy about Lucy choosing Natsu's gift. Mira ended with Lisanna's gift, A pink instax mini camera. Yeah, I don't know where she got the money for that.
And finally the queen of all the fairies, Erza Scarlet was the lucky one who came in last. It was her choice to steal or open a present.
"So, Erza? Would you rather steal or open a present." I ask the S-class mage.
Everyone was clinging on to their gift so the titania wouldn't steal it. I even saw some people hiding their gift or pretend it wasn't there.
"I think I will..." Erza says scanning her eyes at the others' gifts. "Open a present!" she exclaims and rips open the very last present. I take a glance at Mira who had a evil smirk plastered upon her face. This must be her gift.
"What is it? What is it?" Asuka asks while riding on her rocking reindeer.
"It's a poster of..."
All of a sudden Lucy starts laughing, then Natsu, then Levy, then Gray, then Wendy, and so on. The whole guild erupted with laughter while Erza was giving all of us a confused look.
She turns the poster over and blushes five times redder than her own hair.
"WHY IS THE PICTURE OF ME AND JELLAL KISSING??!!" Erza screams giving everyone a evil death glare.
We all shut up at her sudden voice and pretend we weren't even here at the moment. I then see Mira approaching Erza with a ...
*click *flash
"Nice poster, titania." Mira responds sweetly.
Oh, sh!ts about to go down.
"SO YOU WERE THE ONE WHO DID THIS, WERE YOU??!!"
The rest of the guild and I hid under our chair, watching what will happen next.
"Well, I am a matchmaker after all, so yes I did!" Mira responds. Geez. How come she is not frightned like the rest of us. Well, she's Mira after all. Nothing really freightens her, except knowning that her ships will never be canoned.
"YOU ARE SO GONNA PAY FOR THIS, MIRA!" Erza yells at the demon girl.
Mira silently walks up to Erza giving her a hug. She whispers something into her ear, "I know you will thank me one day, Erza, so don't kill me like it's nothing."
Erza turned pale white and whispered something back, "Thanks."
Mira smiles and lets go of the hug, while Erza sat back in her seat.
"Okey!" I said getting up from under my chair. "That was scary. Anyways, I hope you all enjoyed playing 'Gift WAR' with me because I very much enjoyed it with you guys!"
The whole guild cheers.
All of a sudden Mira turns on the music and I get into the music as I start leading everyone into the song,
♪♪"We wish you a Merry Christmas,
We wish you a Merry Chrismas,
We wish you a Merry Christmas and a happy New Year!
Good tidings to you and all of your kin,
Good tidings for Christmas and a happy New Year!
We wish you a Merry Christmas,
We wish you a Merry Chrismas,
We wish you a Merry Christmas and a happy New Year!"♪♪
The whole guild and I cheer after our sing-along.
"MERRY CHRISTMAS!" I said.
"AND MERRY CHRISTMAS TO YOU!" they replied back.
🎄The End. 🎄
