JC: Here's the 3rd one-shot! It's about Lunamaria's love life. Though I don't like her character much, I still wrote this for a friend. I hope you enjoy this.

Disclaimer: I don't own Lunamaria Hawke! The plotline is inspired by the story "It's just a small dream" by Ma. Aisa Dimacus.

Lost Love

There was this guy I admired in school. He was definitely hot and cute. He was a delinquent student, but I, Lunamaria Hawke, didn't care. His attitude may be a little scary, but I knew that he was nice guy because of the way he treated his younger sister. However, most of my classmates were afraid of him. I couldn't blame them because he was a big threat to them. Still, Shinn Asuka was an important person to me.

It all started my high school days. He was my classmate from 1st year to 3rd year high school. The first time I saw him, I found him handsome and felt that there is something in this guy. I got myself a source friend to find out his lucky girl, and that was not I, but another classmate of ours and her name was Stellar Loussier. When I found out about this, I felt so disappointed and jealous. I kept asking why he picked Stellar! But I wasn't going to give up on him.

I started befriending him. He wasn't really into the idea of becoming my friend, but he accepted me in the end. Eventually, we became close to one another.

My friends noticed our closeness and teased me. Of course, I felt a little shy but happy at the same time.

In our 3rd year of high school, he finally became my boyfriend! I've never been so happy in my entire life. Shinn was still a delinquent, but that didn't bother me at all.

On our prom night, he asked me to dance with him for seven times. And I was his first and last dance! After the dance, a very sweet thing happened. He kissed me for the first time! It was definitely a memorable night for me.

But as times passed, he started changing. He was growing farther and farther away from me. I didn't know why. I felt like he wasn't in love with me anymore.

After graduation, he dumped me. I asked him for a reason and he told me that he didn't love me anymore. Ouch! I couldn't believe the fact that the guy I love was dumping me for a pointless reason! I cried and cried for hours. Luckily, my little sister was there to comfort me.

Months have passed and I found out that Stellar was his new girlfriend. My source friend told me that he was seriously committed to Stellar. I wasn't going to accept it! When I saw him walking together with Stellar at the park, I gathered the courage to approach him.

"I can't believe that you dumped me for this stupid girl!" I shouted, glaring at him and Stellar.

Suddenly, Shinn slapped me and said, "You have no right to insult Stellar!" He clenched his fists.

I held my swollen cheek, looking surprised and hurt, as I slowly turned my head back at him. "I don't get it. You said that you love me. You said that I'm the only girl for you."

Then Stellar placed a hand on my shoulder, forcing me to look at her, as she knitted a smile on her face. "Hawke-san, please understand Shinn," she said.

"What did you say!" I yelled out, pulling myself away from Stellar. "Shinn hurt me!"

"I'm sure he didn't mean to," answered Stellar. "Besides, you don't know the real reason why he left you."

"And what reason is that?" I sounded irritated.

Shinn answered, "First, I thought that you were the right girl for me. I thought that I loved you, but I realized that my feelings for you weren't real. I kept saying that I loved you to convince myself to be committed to you. But in the end, it didn't work. I felt so stupid. I hurt you and I regretted that." He faintly smiled.

Tears formed in my eyes. Sadness overwhelmed me. I took a few steps backward, looking at them in disbelief, as tears streamed down my face. Stellar approached me to comfort me but I turned her down. I quickly ran away from them.

Weeks passed and I still thought about him. I realized that I was being stupid and selfish. I should have noticed Shinn's feelings in the first place. I should've guessed that his heart only desired Stellar. But I was too conceited! I didn't care about his thoughts and feelings at all. I let him go... I tried surviving.

I was still in love with him, but I wasn't planning on taking him away from Stellar. She even became a close friend of mine. I accepted the fact that he loved Stellar more than his life. I actually grew to like the couple. I supported them until their wedding day. I was one of the bride's maids during the occasion.

I lost the love of my life but it doesn't mean the end of the world for me. I know that I can find the right guy for me someday.
