Lucy, jellal and Luna walked down the busy streets of magnolia. They were currently searching for gifts for the wedding. Happy and Carla were to be wed tomorrow, Luna was super excited to get a gift. "Mommy, let's stop here!" Luna said, spotting a tea shop. "Okay." Lucy said, as Luna took her hand. Lucy was drug into the tea shop by her giggling daughter, jellal falling in behind them. "Let's get this!" Luna exclaimed, holding up a box of darjeeling tea. "I'm sure Carla would love that." Lucy said with a smile.

They walked around the shop some more, looking at all the different types of tea. "Wow!" Luna exclaimed, her eyes lighting up. "What is it, Luna?" Jellal asked, following Luna's gaze. On the shelf before them at the very top, sat a tea maker that was controlled by a lacryma. "Woah!" Lucy and jellal both said, their mouths hanging open. They had never seen anything like it before. "Ah, I see you've spotted the newest edition!" An excited voice behind them said. They turned to see a shirt, balding man before them. "I am the shop owner, Franklin Weston." He said, bowing to them.

"Hello, my name is Lucy." Lucy said with a small curtsey. "This is my daughter Luna and husband Jellal." She said gesturing to the two. Luna smiled and gave the man a curtsey, jellal tipped his head towards the gentleman. "What can you tell us about this tea maker?" Lucy asked, pointing to the top shelf. "Well ma'am, that there is the best selling tea maker on this part of fiore. It has a timer there." He said, gesturing to a button. "You set that and it makes tea for whatever time you set it. It takes any type of tea and any flavors." He continued.

Lucy listened in awe, never having heard of such a machine. "How much is that.?" Lucy asked. "Well that's 200,000 jewels, but for you ma'am I'll sell it for 100,000 jewels." He said with a wink. Lucy looked to Jellal thoughtfully, debating on if she wanted to spend that much. "We can afford that." Jellal whispered in her ear. "We'll take it." Lucy said to the shop owner. "Excellent!" He exclaimed, clapping his hands together. They went to the front of the store and purchased their items, leaving the store with smiles on their faces.

They continued down the road a ways until coming to a fish market. Lucy stood there for thirty minutes choosing different types of fish for happy. Once their items were purchased and wrapped beautifully, they began to head towards the guild. Everyone was excited for happy and Carla's wedding. Levi and Sylvia agreed to meet Lucy and Luna at the guild to decorate, while the boys moved things around and set up the food bar. Why anyone would put natsu near the food bar was a mystery to Lucy. They could hear the voices of their guild mates as they approached, due to the guild doors being wide open.

"Lu-chan!" Levi said, waving them over. She stood on a ladder, her arms stretched high above her trying to hang some ribbons. Lucy rushed to the ladder to steady it in case Levi fell. Jellal picked Luna up, moving her to the ribbon so she could grab it. Luna hung the ribbon on the nail hanging out of the wall, giggling as Jellal placed her down again. They spent the next two hours preparing the guild for the wedding, then rushing home to change. When they returned, everyone was in dresses and tuxedos. Happy and Carla had yet to arrive as it was still early.

Happy had asked natsu to be his best man, so natsu currently stood on the stage. Wendy stood on the opposite side as the bridesmaid. Luna and silver were to be the flower girl and ring bearer, they were currently being given a basket of flower pedals and a small box containing two beautiful gold rings. "Here they come!" Erzas voice boomed from the doorway. Everyone got into their places as happy came rushing forward in a black tux, trying to straighten his red tie as he went. He walked to the stage and stood before master, a nervous grin on his slightly red face. "I made it." He said, causing those close to him to chuckle.

The sweet sound of gajeels guitar began to play, here comes the bride reverberating from the walls. Carla began to walk through the guild wearing a beautiful white dress, holding a bouquet of pink and red roses. Everyone oooh'd and ahhhh'd at the beauty of the dress and how radiant Carla looked. She smiled the whole way down the aisle. Happy took her paw in his as she approached, slipping her veil behind her head. Makarov cleared his throat before beginning his speech.

"Love is patient, love is kind. It does not envy, it does not boast, it is not proud. It does not dishonor others, it is not self-seeking, it is not easily angered, it keeps no record of wrongs. Love does not delight in evil but rejoices with the truth. It always protects, always trusts, always hopes, always perseveres. Love never fails. Do you Happy, take Carla to be your lawfully wedded wife; to cherish and hold in sickness and health?" Makarov asked, a smile on his face. "I do." Happy said. "And do you Carla, take Happy to be your lawfully wedded husband; to cherish and hold in sickness and health?" Makarov asked Carla. "I do." She said, her voice cracking as the tears of joy were already flowing.

"I now pronounce you, husband and wife." Makarov said, blowing his nose. "You may kiss the bride." He said happily. Everyone cheered as happy pulled Carla into his arms, giving her a passionate kiss that left her blushing and breathless. The music began to change as the guild members began to dance. Happy and Carla were already opening gifts before cake. "Wow! Look at all the fish!" Happy exclaimed, opening the box Lucy gave him. It contained five of his favorite fish along with five rare fish. "Thanks Lucy!" Happy exclaimed, giving her a hug. "Your welcome." She giggled, hugging him back.

"Open this aunt Carla, I picked it out!" Luna said excitedly, giving her two boxes. Carla unwrapped the box of Darjeeling tea with a smile on her face. "Thank you, I needed some more." Carla said with a smile. "Wow, this is amazing." She said in awe, as she opened the tea maker. "You can set a timer, and it has self cleaning." Luna told her. She had read the back of the box before it was wrapped. "Thank you so much." Carla said, giving Luna a hug. They finished the rest of their presents, enjoying everything they received.

"Let's do cake!" Natsu yelled happily. "Aye sir!" Happy said, jumping into the air. Happy grabbed the knife beside the cake, Carla placing her hand atop his. They stood there pretending to cut the cake for pictures, the. Proceeded to cut a slice for everyone. They are cake, drank and listened to music the whole night long. Everyone had smiles on their faces and laughter in their hearts. Lucy looked around the guild, smiling at all the happy faces; nostalgia coming to her reminding her of her first day here.
