LUCY'S POV
As soon as Gajeel and Levy walked in, we made our way up to our floor. After the elevator ride of doom, I stumbled out of the car and flopped on the couch. Wendy and Levy joined me, Mira walked up to us.
"Come on guys get up. We're supposed to meet the others at....."
She checked her phone
"......The Japanese buffet, we are having a meal as a guild. So get to it people meet back here at around 9:00. Let's go Laxus".
Mira grabbed Laxus's hand and dragged him into their bedroom and slammed the door.
Jellal and Erza walked into their bedroom and shut the door.
Levy stood up and walked into the bedroom she was sharing with Gajeel. He followed behind her and shut the door.
"Let's go get ready Juvia".
"Hai"
Juvia stood up and walked into the room with Gray.
"Let's go Luce".
Natsu grabbed my hand pulled me into our bedroom and closed the door.
He flopped on our bed and looked at me.
"You can bathe first if you wanna."
I nodded, I opened my drawer and pulled out my towel. I walked into the bathroom and shut the door, I took off my clothes and turned the shower on.
I heard some noise coming from outside the bathroom door.
I pressed my ear against the door nothing.
I almost pulled my head away when I heard
"Gosh what's taking so long. Calm down Natsu she just got in the shower. I know but, I just can't do things without her by my side. You can do this Natsu, it's for a few minutes Natsu you can do this".
Is Natsu arguing with himself, OVER ME. He can't live without me? NATSU REACHED STAGE 1 ALREADY!!?!?
Wow I'm flattered, what else is he saying.
I never found out because I slipped on some water and fell on my back. And I wouldn't have found out because Natsu kicked the door down.
"Lucy! Are you ok?"
"I'm fine Natsu, I just slipped no big deal".
He helped me up, I stepped into the shower to only notice that he put the toilet cover down and sat on it. I closed the shower curtain "Natsu, why are you still here?"
As soon as I said that he looked a bit disappointed.
"NOT THAT I MIND!?!?(coughs) I mean it's fine if you stay here just don't open the shower curtain mkay."
"Sure Luce!"
I laughed, I stuck my head under the water and grabbed the soap.(I'm not going to go into detail on where Lucy cleaned herself).
As soon as I turned the water off Natsu stood up. I grabbed my towel and stepped out the shower to see Natsu ...... naked.
"HOLY MAVIS, Natsu where are your clothes".
"I don't know somewhere on the floor".
"Well put some clothes on".
"Nahhh, I have to shower first".
I sighed, I kept my hand on my eyes and used the other one to find the door.
My hand touched something chiseled and warm, I traced my finger around the middle of it and put my hand there.
"Natsu, is this the door?".
"Nope, it's my chest".
I opened a space between my fingers to see my hand on Natsu's chest.
I blushed like crazy but, hand was still on his chest. He grabbed my other hand and pressed it to his chest.
"What Luce, you like the way it feels?"
"Ummmmmmmm, I um".
He laughed he let go of my hand and stepped into the shower. My hand was still up there longing for Natsu's chest to come back. I snapped back into reality and walked out the bathroom.
I guess I'll call room service to fix the door
Natsu started to groan as I walked further away. I quickly walked into the closet and Natsu started to yell in pain.  Gosh what to wear what to wear?!?!
As I stepped further in Natsu began to roar in agony, our bedroom shook. I immediately grabbed the nearest dress I could and ran out the closet. I stood by the hole where the door used to be. He stopped roaring and continued to shower. I sighed in relief, Well I guess the stronger the connection the more pain. Poor Natsu.
I dropped my towel on the bed and looked at the dress I picked up. It was a laced strapless dress with a pink background.
I pulled open my drawer and put on my bra and underwear. I slipped the dress on and stood outside the door frame. The water had stopped, and the shower curtain opened. Natsu walked out and looked at me.
I could've sworn that Natsu blushed when he saw me.
"You look great Luce", he sealed it with his signature grin.
I blushed myself "Thanks Natsu, you look good too". 
HOLY CRAP LUCY, YOU JUST SAID THAT NATSU LOOKS GOOD. NAKED?!!??!
"N-Natsu I didn't mean it like that".
He didn't seem to care which is one of the reasons I love him so much.
He grabbed my hand and pulled me towards his dresser. Natsu turned around and grinned "Luce, can you help me get ready for dinner".
I opened his drawer and pulled out a white shirt, black coat, and black pants. He put them on, and put on a pair of black converse. I walked into the closet and grabbed a pair of black pumps, I slipped them on and walked out.
I checked my phone, the time was only 8:30. A hour is still left, I threw off my shoes and flopped on the bed. I picked up the remote and turned on the television to Cartoon Network. The Amazing World of Gumball was on, Natsu grabbed some chips out the cupboard and flopped next to me.
We laughed and binge watched Gumball until 9:58. I put my shoes back on, and put my phone and spirit keys in my side bag.
I walked over to Natsu and dusted the chip crumbs off of his jacket and his mouth. I grabbed our room key and we walked into the loft. I sat down and waited, a couple seconds later Gray and Juvia walked out(wearing what they're in the picture), I ran up to Juvia and squealed. She spun around and laughed. "You like it Lucy? Gray chose it out for me."
I looked at Gray and he just glared at me "What, I think she looks hot in this dress".
Juvia just blushed while I laughed, Natsu scoffed and walked up to Gray. Gray head butted Natsu and said
"What're you scoffing at flame for brain?"
"I was just thinking, The stalker and the stripper it's like a match made in heaven".
"Puh- lease man, at least me and Juvia are a better match than you and Lucy".
"YOU WANNA GO SNOWMAN!!!"
"I'M READY WHEN YOU ARE FLAME FOR BRAIN!!"
As Natsu and Gray were about to fight they did not notice that Erza just stepped out of her room.
Juvia and I took a step back, nope that's an understatement. We ran to the back of the room, which was a safe enough distance away from Erza.
She grabbed their heads and smashed them together.  They walked around dizzy, until Gray bumped into Natsu. They clashed heads once again and was about to fight when Erza started to give off a dark aura. Gray ran behind Juvia, and Natsu put me in front of him like a shield. She walked up to Juvia and I,
"Listen up, Lucy and Juvia. Make sure you keep your men in check, because I heard that the restaurant here at the resort has the most amazing strawberry cake. If either one of your men messes it up, they will be missing their heads. UNDERSTAND?!?"
I was too terrified to say anything and Juvia was in the same case as me. Our shocked faces seemed to be a good enough answer for her.
"Good to know".
Mira and others came out their bedrooms and we headed off down the elevator.
On the elevator the boys was giving us girls no space at all. I had no breathing space what so ever, as the elevator stopped all of us girls flopped out gasping for air, which only made things worse. The boys crushed us with bare hugs and yells in our ear asking us if we were ok.
I felt bad for Mira, Laxus is so big and buff he looks like he could pop a basketball ball with his bare hand.
Scratch that, I feel sorry for ALL the girls with dragon slayers. They are so damn strong!!!
Ugh, I feel like Natsu's gonna pop me any second now.
"Natsu...can't...breathe...hugging...too..tight...let...go...PLEASE!!"
He let go of me instantly and kept bowing
"Gomen, Gomen,Gomen,Gomen,Gomen...
"It's fine Natsu, calm down".
He stood up and grabbed my hand and dragged me along with the other girls inside.
This is going to be a long night.
MIRA'S POV
The guys dragged us inside the restaurant. I told the others to stay behind, and I would go and ask someone who worked here. Laxus let go of my hand, I sighed in relief. Moments later he grabbed on again and pulled me in the direction of the nearest waiter. Laxus tapped on the males shoulder, he turned around. A smile crept across his face as he looked at me, then Laxus, then the others behind us.
"HOLY COW, YOU GUYS ARE FROM THE GUILD FAIRY TAIL. YOU ARE MIRAJANE THE SHE DEVIL.(gasp) YOU'RE LAXUS DREYAR AN S CLASS WIZARD.(squeal) YOU'RE NATSU THE SALAMANDER DRAGNEEL. YOU DEFEATED LAXUS DURING THE FANTASIA PARADE. WOW IT'S LUCY, ERZA, AND WENDY YOU GUYS ARE SO POWERFUL AND CUTE. SQUEEEE!!!! ITS JUVIA AND GRAY, THEY'RE SO AWESOME. IS THAT BLACK STEEL GAJEEL AND LEVY MCGARDEN!??!!?? I REMEMBER WHEN NATSU BEAT YOU WHEN PHANTOM LORD TRIED TO DESTROY FAIRY TAIL. AND YOU ARE ROMEO AND JELLAL. I REMEMBER WHEN NATSU DEFEATED JELLAL DURING THE TIME WHERE YOU HAD TRIED TO RESURRECT THE BLACK WIZARD ZEREF. WOW MY NAME IS EVAN AND-"
Natsu stepped in front of me and glared at him
"AND we don't care. Look Evan was it? I'm starving, and so are all of my friends standing behind me. So would you be so kind to tell us where the Fairy Tail guild table is. Thanks."
I glanced at Evan he looked more than happy to do so. He pointed in the direction of a big table that had a 'FAIRY TAIL' sign in front of it. 
"Oh, and Evan.... "
Surprisingly all of the guys talked at the exact same time,
" If you ever come near my girl, I'LL KILL YOU!!"
Evan flinched at the sight of the guys glaring him down.
We all walked off leaving Evan rather stunned. I giggled and his face and waved goodbye. He smiled and quickly shrieked and into the kitchen. I frowned, are we that  bad?
I shrugged my shoulders, oh well.
We made it to our table and our other  guild mates shouted out
"HEY GUYS!"
Sitting at the head of the table was Master Mavis and Master Makarov.
"ALRIGHT BRATS, LET'S EAT!!"
Everyone dug into their food. We all laughed and talked. It was a great night!
GAJEEL'S POV
The night went pretty well I guess. Salamander and Gray were having eating competitions  with me. And shrimp and Bunny girl were talking with Titania and Mirajane.
I couldn't stop thinking about what happened to me. Why the hell was I so protective over shrimp? Is it cause of that Mating Season crap. What if she's on to me Would I die of awkwardness if she ever found out? Does she even feel the same about me? Nah there is no way shrimp would ever love a guy like me. Even Jet and Droy have better chances then I do. And they are losers!! And why the hell I am I thinking so much???!??? I-
"-eel"
"-ajeel"
"GAJEEL!!!!"
"Huh?"
Shrimp was standing in front of me with a concerned look on her face.
"What the hell man. I have been trying to get your attention for five minutes".
"Gi-Hi, since when do you do you curse, shrimp?"
She twisted her face into a pout and I grinned.I loved seeing her pouting face.
"We're going back to the hotel now. Are you coming or not?"
I stood up and walked out with the others. Laxus had his arm around Mirajane and was whispering stuff in her ear.
Salamander had bunny girl on his back and was either talking to her or himself. 
Ice Man actually looked like he was the one stalking Juvia.
Romeo and Wendy were just talking and holding.
Jellal was holding Titania fireman style.
What the fuck are they doing?
I looked down, what the fuck am I doing??!?
My arm was around shrimp's waist and she was holding on to my waist.
I tried to yell out something or let go of shrimp. But, it wasn't working it was like I was attached to her.
Even on that stupid elevator me and the other guys had not moved from the positions we were in.
As I walked out the elevator all the boys took their mates and went into their bedrooms.
I took shrimp with me into our room and shut the door.
Please don't make me do any thing I will regret BODY!'
I walked over to my bed and fell asleep.
Sigh, tomorrow is Christmas Eve. Hopefully this mating crap doesn't ruin it.
