Author's ramblings: Huwawwww... It really has been quite some time since I last wrote a story. A lot of things have been occupying me as of late. And now, I'm back from the dead. So, be gentle with me please. Hohoho. Also, this is also my first Fairy Tail story.

Just a lil trivia. Some parts of this are based from what happened to me. And this is my way of coping up with it. A lil bit sad but life goes on. So, enjoy. And reviews are very much appreciated as it lets me know if there are people who are interested.

Now, let the story begin!
Title: Freinds, Lovers, or Nothing (John Mayer fans will get this XD)
Pairing: Lucy X Natsu X Lisanna (hohohoooooooo) (feel free to suggest other pairings : )


PROLOGUE

"I want to be honest with you. I fell in love with somebody else. You're my friend. I hope you understand." That's what he told me.

Understand? He expects me to understand it as if nothing happened? As if... as if it doesn't hurt me at all? As if what happened between us never happened?

"With who," I asked even though I already know the answer. He pauses for a while, thinking, perhaps? Or is it guilt? Shame? His conscience that's preventing him from talking? There was a moment's pause. An unbreakable silence between the two of us.

"Lisanna," he whispered, looking at a distance.

No. No. NO! I don't want to hear it! I don't want to know! But even if he doesn't tell me, in the corner of my heart, in the deepest part of my mind, and into my very being, I know. I know...

"Wow. that's great! I'm happy for you. Since when?" I asked, putting up a cheerful front. I have to smile because if I don't, I'll break down and cry. And I might not be able to stop crying all together.

He did not utter a single word. Why? Why won't you talk to me? Cat got in your tongue? Or is guilt trying to seep into your heart? Or is it because you don't want to see me cry? Or is it because you pity me? Just how low do you think I am?

A few more minutes pass and there is still not an answer, not a single syllable out of his lips. His eyes meet the ground, his fists clenched on either side of him.

"Then, if you're no longer going to say anything, I'll be on my way. I'll see you at the guild. I'm really happy for you, Natsu."

I can't hold it any longer. If I stay here a second longer, I'll cry. I'll cry and be a pathetic mess. I need to get away from here.

"Hmm. See you, I guess..."

And that was it. I ran, not wanting to look back. If I turn my head and look back, I'd end up running back there and hug him. Tell him to quit the joke. Make him tell me that it was just a stupid prank that he and Happy are pulling. No. I mustn't look back. I have to get home.

"Oh, Lucy. Welcome back. Not feeling well?" the landlady said.

"Ah. I'm back. Uhm, yeah. Just a little trouble at the guild," I said, putting on a cheerful act.

"Take a rest then. It's not good for the skin if you're always stressed."

"Yes, thank you very much," Isaid, climbing up the stairs to my room.

I slumped into my bed, no longer able to carry on my cheerful act. I can't take it anymore. I can't stop myself from crying.

Lies, lies, lies! They are all lies! Please, please just tell me you're lying. Please? I won't mind you barging in my house again. I won't get mad at you again. So please, just tell me your lying... Please...

And with that, the night died away with tears running down my eyes.
