(Romeo stared at Chelia as if she plucked out his heart, dribbled it, threw it to the ground and stumped down on it. Oh wait...)
Chelia (looking at the ground): I d-don't think we're right for each other.
Romeo (tears threatening to spill out of his eyes): B-but why?!
Chelia (sighing, still clutching her chest): The spark, I don't feel it anymore. I don't feel the spark in our bond anymore.
Romeo (speechless, almost on the brink of crying): I-it's our anni...
Chelia (turning away from him, walking off): I'm sorry, Romeo.
Narrator: And that's how I lost the girl that I loved the most. Weeks after that, I still couldn't move on. Everything reminded me of her ....and that scared me to death.
Natsu (waving his hands in front of his face): Hey! Yo, Romeo!
Romeo (blinking): What?
Narrator: The guy with me is Natsu Dragneel, my best friend. We've known each other since we were kids. I looked up to this daredevil-of-a-guy but right now, he was annoying me.

Romeo (rolls his eyes)
Natsu (sighs): I'm your best friend and I'm supposed to help you.
Romeo(smirks): That's a first.
Natsu (finger on his mouth): This only happens once. Enjoy it.
Romeo (raised an eyebrow): Okay. What are you thinking?
Natsu (hand on his chin): I think you need a new girl.
Romeo: A what?
Natsu (flashes a mischievous grin): A rebound.
