SIMPLE

The true beauty lies within something simple

-Chapitre one : Kira-

Why does Athrun love Kira very much?

Simple. It's really simple.

Athrun loves the way Kira turns when someone calls his name. He loves the warm lavender eyes' stare that Kira always give to everyone. And also loves the way Kira nods when the boy understands something, or shakes his head when he doesn't want to do something.

To Athrun, Kira is the most wonderful world's miraculous. That older coordinator is really full of beauty. Athrun can see the beauty in every inches of a figure called Kira Yamato. He's really one of God's masterpieces. Athrun can see the magic behind the beauty in Kira's brown hair, Kira's lavender eyes, Kira's fresh and clean face, his slender fingers, his slim and sturdy body, his pointed nose, his clear nails that are always cut so neatly..

Kira has a lot of expressions. And Athrun loves those all. Especially when Kira is smiling widely. Ah, no, even if Kira only smiles a bit, Athrun loves it, too. And Athrun loves the times when Kira laughs. His white teeth will be seen, and his gleaming eyes will be closed with a beautiful motion. Also, his surprise reaction is funny, too. Athrun loves to surprise him sometimes, so that shining eyes would widen in a sudden, followed by a hald up yell. Very funny.

Athrun hates to see Kira cry. But he has to admit that he loves the boy's sad expression, too. So flowing. And as the clear, salty water runs down Kira's cheek, those lavender eyes would crack, as if it's ready to shatter, and Athrun had to watch it carefully so it wouldn't shatter. But only in those times, Athrun could see the sparkle called sadness appeared in those weak eyes, -the sparkle that Kira had been hiding from everyone else- and just so, so Athrun could reach, and whipped the sparkle away, faraway, together with the suffering of life inside of it.

Why does he love Kira? Simple.

It's because Athrun loves to hear the best coordinator's gentle voice calling him, "Athrun...", however it sounds. That voice will always echoes in his ears and heart, just like an angel sing...

Athrun loves the times when they were able to pass the war and came back safely, the times when he went out of Justice's cockpit, and saw Kira's figure was waiting for him not far from Freedom's leg, with a hopeful and worried face, which would change into a bright welcoming smile when Athrun aimed down for him.

Or the times when they shared what's in their hearts, talked about lots of things – war, peace, ORB, ZAFT, OMNI, childhood, future, plans, friendship, stars, love, love, love – and Athrun really loves Kira's blushing face, smiling shyly every time Athrun held his hands, or stroke his hair, or touched his cheek slightly, or hugged him firmly.

Athrun loves to embrace Kira, too. He could breathe the smell of Kira's shampoo every time he buried his head on the thick, brown hair of Kira. Or the smell of Kira's sweat, mixed with the shorter coordinator's deodorant. Then, Kira would grunt, protesting, saying that he's wet with sweat and hadn't taken a bath yet. But Athrun never cares. He loves how Kira smelt, especially when that boy had just taken a bath. His fresh face, his wet hair, and his cold hands…really, Athrun loves them.

Athrun loves to see Kira's face, every time Kira stares at his eyes, deeply, asking if Athrun has any problem. Those lavender eyes seem able to sneak into the deepest chamber on Athrun's heart, making Athrun never able to lie to him.

Is that all, the reason of his love to Kira?

No. Actually, it's much simpler.

Athrun loves Kira's warm personality. He's really kind and friendly, too kind to other people, so sincere with his feelings for others. Always and always trying not to make other people sad, to make them happy, even if he has to suffer and cry because of it. Athrun loves Kira, the Kira who always wants to protect others even if he has to sacrifice his own life. He's the one who have always been hiding his tears and pain from everyone.

But actually, a thing that Athrun loves the most from Kira is the real and pure Kira. Who always opens himself and his heart to Athrun. Kira only cries when he's only with Athrun and no one else around, making Athrun feels a really strong desire to protect the older coordinator. Kira only becomes childish in front of Athrun, acting super-naively in one time, and acting as if he knows everything in this world in other time. It makes Athrun feels that he's needed by Kira. Kira, the one who is always ready to catch him if he fall down, watching him and taking care of him, giving him so much loves and cares, much more than Athrun expects to be given..

Kira always laugh whenever Athrun says something funny, always smiles every time Athrun needs supports, always be there when Athrun needs him…

"Athrun? Hey… you're so deep in your mind, what're you thinking about?" Kira's voice comes from his back. Athrun turns his stare from the wonderful view of the beach and sunset in front of him to the figure of a coordinator who is now sitting at his right side and leaning his head on Athrun's shoulder.

Athrun needs some minutes before letting the words slips out from his mouth, "I was thinking… why do I love you?"

Kira smiles. "Really? Why, then?"

Athrun thinks for a moment, looking for the conclusion of all the reasons he has thought before. A simple reason, a reason that will explain all his feelings in a short statement…

"I love you…because…you..are…Kira Yamato."

Kira chuckles, squeezes Athrun's hand and brings his mouth to the side of Athrun's ear, and whispers softly,

"That's so simple…"

Athrun smiles.

Yeah, it's simple. So simple. That's his love, simple.

As simple as Kira. As simple as Kira, who saves so many real beauties inside his simple-ness.

Yepp!!! It's done!!!!! What do you think? I was soooooo inspired by my friend's statement about 'simple ness', HA! So, I decided to write something about Asukira in a theme called simple ness. Hemm…but my English is really bad, so I'm so sorry if there are some parts that make you confused…
