Prologue
Ever fallen out of love? How do I describe it….well it feels like the world stops turning, all life stops moving, people look like statues, birds hang in the air and the stillness screams silence. It's like every drop of warmth in the sun is draining along with every bit of affection you held in your heart. There is panic as you try to hold onto it by the mere finger tips, but it all eventually slips your grasp. Then finally all you're left with is a cold, grey, silent and dead world. That's when the numbness sets in, everything start moving again, sound returns but the colour is still gone.
It's then you realise that the object of your affection has been calling to you and you have just been walking away unintentionally ignoring them and blocking them out. Still when you realise that they are trying to reach for you, you intentionally ignore them. The hurt is gone, the love is gone…you're just a shell waiting for the initial shock to wear off and then pain starts all over again and you can mourn the death of your relationship.
"Levy!" Gajeel kept yelling to me, "dammit puny girl just listen!"
I didn't say a word; I just kept walking away like a zombie, the tears on my cheeks drying.
"I swear it isn't what you think!" he promised. I couldn't even feel his hands grab me, his pleainf made me sick! "You can't just leave, you have to listen!"
I almost gave out a bitter laugh, all the rouge around his face, those horrible lipstick marks that marked betrayal. I didn't have to do anything, clearly what we had just wasn't worth saving.
