"Hey Lucy? Can I get a bit of help over here?" I look away from the mirror and look over at Zeref struggling to wrap a present. I giggle and turn back to face the mirror.
"Yeah, hold on, let me get this necklace on." I hear Zeref grunt in frustration, and as I got the clasp in at the perfect size, I hear a loud crash and I quickly rush towards the sound.
"H-Help....?" I take a step back, my necklace jingling as I move. I place a gloved hand over my mouth in an attempt to muffle my laughs. "Pfftt... Hahahaha!!" I stumble back, holding my stomach with one hand and trying to muffle my laughs with the other.
"Stop laughing and help me! This position is uncomfortable." Zeref had somehow managed to get tangled in the gift ribbon in the time span of me clasping my necklace.
"How did you get yourself into this?" I giggle, walking over to help the poor soul. I tug on one of the pieces of ribbon that was attached to his head. "O-ow ow ow!!" I chuckle, "Its your own fault." He grumbles as I get the last piece of ribbon off.
"Alright, give me that gift so we can go!" I cheered, outstretching my hand. Zeref gave me the box and I started to wrap it neatly and efficiently. "Alright! Done! Now get your jacket on and let's go to Natsu's house!"

I skip up to the door, leaving Zeref behind as he grabs his present. I press the doorbell as I wait for it to open. It suddenly does and Natsu greets me with a lopsided smile. "Hey Lucy! Do you have a plus one or are you alone?"
I smiled back, motioning towards the blackette digging around in the backseat. "Sorry that we're late, Zeref got tangled in the ribbon, I actually think it was worse than when Gray got stuck in the Christmas lights." I laugh, making Natsu laugh with me.
Zeref finally got his gift and joined the area next to Lucy. "Well, it's rude to keep you guys out in the cold like this, come in, we're playing Secret Santa." I walk in with Zeref, hanging my coat on the overflowing coat rack.
"Okay guys! Everyone is here now!" I heard Natsu an ice from the living room. "Ugh, about time that bimbo joined us." My eyes widened as I hear the familiar voice. I walk into the room and I see almost about everybody.
"So first things first, lets go over the invited list, and when I call your name, say your plus one." Grandeeny announced, coming out of no where. She smiled warmly. "Just to see how much food I have to prepare."
She took out a list, scanning over it with a nod. As she reached the top, her eyes started to sparkle. "Oh, by the way, the order I call these is who Natsu thought of first." She smirked, glancing at the flustered Natsu.
She said the first name pound and clear. "Lucy Heart! Who's your plus one?" I slightly blush, knowing that Natsu thought of me first.
"Zeref Dark." The list went on and on, but because author-chan wants to spend time with her best childhood friend that she barely gets to see and her family, here's a picture. (Cough* pluethedogg Cough* Cough* Sneeze* Sneeze*)

"Alright! Thank you!" Grandeeny walked out, going towards the kitchen.

"And, open!" Natsu yelled, tearing open his present like everyone else. "Who has me?!" Natsu yelled, throwing up his gift. "Oh, I did." Levy said, raising her petite hand. "Thanks!"
"Oh, who got me?" Zeref asked quietly. "I did." Jellal said, looking over at the boy. "Sorry, I don't really know what you like." Zeref shook his head, staring at the book in awe. "Did you monogram this yourself?"
Jellal nodded as Zeref lined the rimming of the journal. I leaned over his shoulder, reading the monogram.
The Book Of Zeref
"Woah Zeref! You have your own journal to spill out all your thoughts and everyone will know it's yours!" I cheer. He hugs it close to his chest. "Yeah."
He looked over at the tattooed boy. "Thank you." Jellal nodded. The chain continued until it was my turn. "Who got me?"
"Me!" Erza proudly announced. I laughed, as I opened the present. "Woah... thanks Erza!! I've been thinking about getting one of these sets!" Erza nodded proudly to herself. "I know you like to write, so I thought about getting you a writers set."
I hugged her as everyone else left to go to the dining hall. I let Erza go ahead as I start cleaning up the wrapping and tissue paper scattered all over the floor. I notice another presence in the room as I turn around.
"Oh, Natsu, I can handle it." He shook his head, "Come on, lets go eat first." He took my hand as I slightly flushed. He walked me through the familiar halls, until we got to the dining one. He walk me through the door as Mira suddenly pushed us backs
"What? Mira—?"
"Kiss! Kiss!! (fall in love! XD)" some people cheered and I look up confused. There, I saw a mistletoe and blushed. I looked up at Natsu as he looked to the side. I roll my eyes, building up my courage. I stand on my tippy toes as I peck his lips.
A blush coated his cheeks as his eyes go wide. A couple people were awing, taking pictures, and one specific person was gagging. I roll my eyes at the scene and sit down. Natsu still seemed in a daze but sat down anyway, tracing his lips with his finger.
"Let's eat, and have a Merry Christmas!"
"And a happy new year!!"
——— Have a Merry Christmas everyone! I hope everyone enjoyed their gifts and if you don't celebrate Christmas, have a great day and enjoy the upcoming new year! Oh, by the way, my friend was going to do this so I thought I'd share it with you.
If you play "Feeling Myself" by Nicki Minaj and Beyoncé at exactly 11:58:50 pm on New Years Eve, Beyoncé will say "World Stop" in 2017 and "Carry On" in 2018. What a great way to start the year!
There were also some that said if you played "It's Everyday Bro" at a certain time it ends right before New Years So you can keep that crap in 2017. But I wouldn't want to end my year like that 😂
