DISCLAIMER: I do not own Fairy Tail or its characters.

I know this might seem like some Nalu bashing story, but its not. I like to be secretive of my plot outline and foreshadow some things. There are many things that are going to be left unsaid, that I want to tell you! ... But I can't, because that's something you will have to find out yourself as you read on.

Enjoy! :)


"Is the guild always this loud and rambunctious?" Lisanna found herself thinking aloud, which isn't really abnormal, but it still unusual, by her standards. She observed the guild, watching everyone do the things they do best. Although everyone else looked so welcoming and cheery, she didn't share the same sort of feelings.

Why did she always feel like this? She knew better than to let her feelings sway her morales. Lucy wasn't a bad person, so it didn't seem fair that she had an urge to retaliate. Needless to say, it would be pointless. Would would she gain from that? The pent up feelings she had for Natsu. Lisanna usually would tell her problems to anyone here, but… what she was feeling now felt much more personal. Even so, she couldn't seem to ward it off.

In the end, Lisanna knew she couldn't win the heart of Natsu. They had become so close, in such little time, almost to the point where it became unbearable. Lucy Heartfillia. The girl that single-handedly was able to bond in a way that she could never had hoped to accomplish. Lisanna just felt so hopeless and forgotten.

Lisanna sat at one of the many tables in the guild, fantasizing what life could of been like if she hadn't been sent to Edolas, in that one freak accident. If only she could of rearranged those events. Although, Lisanna still had her family to give her support. To her, it just felt like there was a huge piece in her life that had gone missing and she couldn't replace it.

Everyone thought that she had died and they all moved on, as if it never happened. Supposedly, if she had never come back, they would still live their lives in the guild, without a care in the world. Maybe things would be better off that way.

"Hey, are you listening to me Lisanna?" Her thoughts were interrupted by Cana, one of the loudest in the guild. It was a late night, so she's probably drunk, Lisanna had assessed. Perhaps it was because she was so deep in thought, but suddenly, out of nowhere, Lisanna's anger flashed, like never before.

"Cana, I will politely ask you to never speak with me again." Immediately afterwards, Lisanna was baffled by her own words, and Cana was equally surprised. Lisanna was met with awkward silence. Lisanna left in a hurry after that, without saying goodbye anyone present. Cana didn't really think much of it, she was simply confused, which quickly subsided.

Lisanna on the other hand, immediately regretted lashing out. She was disappointed at herself, but mostly at the fact that she felt replaced, losing someone she loves. She tried to drown out her own feelings, which backfired. Her emotions reached a breaking point, causing all of her stress to surface, so she snapped.

Another person was outside with her. She had to strain herself, to stop the tears from flowing freely. To her surprise, it was Gray who was also outside with her.

"Long night?" Gray asked her, which nearly made her jump out of her skin. Gray hadn't even glanced in her direction, so her only guess was that he had heard her exit through the guild doors.

"I guess so," Lisanna said as she exhaled a big sigh. "What brings you out here?" Lisanna asked, hoping that the conversation wouldn't grow stale.

"It's too loud in there sometimes, you know?" It seemed as if Gray had a lot on his mind. Of course, with the constant rowdiness of the guild, it would be impossible to think about anything inside. "Throughout most of the day, I can't really get away from my problems." Gray's statement intrigued Lisanna.

"What kind of problems?" Lisanna said carefully, trying not to tread in places where she shouldn't.

"The arguments and fights with that pyromaniac, and Juvia constantly following me around... I don't really get any time to think about anything going on in my life." It seemed Lisanna was right about his reason for coming outside. While Gray was talking, Lisanna couldn't help but notice that he had stripped down again.

"Do you harbor any feelings for Juvia?" Lisanna didn't realize that she was asking her question based on her own problems, until after the words had left her mouth.

Gray stood there for awhile, not saying anything, so Lisanna gradually convinced herself that she might of been right on the nose.

However he finally spoke aloud, "Yeah she's a great friend," Gray glanced back at the guild. "Still, I'm just out here because her clinginess is getting to me a little. I just needed a break," Gray paused for a moment.

Lisanna smiled for the first time that night. Gray was always like that, but Lisanna suspected there was more left unsaid than he was leading on. Maybe she was just overthinking it all a little. Perhaps Natsu hadn't replaced her. Natsu and Lucy were supposed to be on a team together, so that probably explained the reason as to why they were always so close.

Lisanna usually never let her these kind of thoughts dwindle when she was in the guild. She would forget about it, because of all the commotion that transpires whenever she is around. Her jealousy caused that outburst, so maybe a break could be what she needs to unwind and relax.


That's my brief first chapter, I plan to upload more this week, but again, this chapter is a pilot. So unfortunately if it isn't successful there would be no point of continuing, so I can then write something more appealing that way.

I love feedback, so leave me any kind! Stay tuned for more!
