"They weren't together, but he just couldn't get their friends to accept that there wasn't anything between him and the Shrimp. He knew she'd forgiven him for the Phantom Lord incident – she'd reassured him of that plenty of times in the years since." (GaLe FanFic, with NaLu and other pairings - my first ever fanfiction, I wrote it for fun but my friend told me I should share it)
