You are My Sunshine

By: Nareiya

Summary:

It all began with a misunderstanding with the exchange gifts and it leaded to an emotional miscommunication. Please R & R! AsuCaga!

Chapter One: The Picking of My Exchanger

"Are you sure you didn't bewitch this, Yamato?" a certain hot headed Yzak Joule inquired to the ultimate coordinator.

He faced him, "For the last time, I haven't cursed or pulled a string or two in that damn box. So if I were you, accept the truth that the one you'll exchange gift is no one other than Dearka and get your butt searching for the gift."

Yzak sighed and saw Dearka smile triumphantly as if he won the Olympics or something similar to that. Kira can swear that he heard Yzak murmuring some profanities as he stomped away from the living room. His gaze shifted at his newly found best friend…well, Kira calls him as bf (best friend) # 2 because Athrun is bf (best friend) #1. Well, bf #2 is no one other than the raven-haired teen, Shin Asuka. During the past two years, he can see Shin's improvement, physically, mentally and last but not the least though in fact, the most important so to say, emotionally. Yet still, until now, he cannot get over the death of his beloved friend, Stellar. He feels sad whenever they mention her name because he is partly to blame but Lacus always tells him that he is not and they must choose to move on and make a bright future.

Kira approached the eighteen-year-old teen, "Hey buddy, what's up?"

"Just the usual. Lunamaria and Meyrin kept on bugging and asking me out as if I am the only man leaving here and they are desperate to have a child." He smiled at his last statement.

"By the way," Kira tried to form a question to ask him, "Luna and…Meyrin, where are they by the way?"

"Them?" he asked, "Athrun sent them to Germany, telling them to find a boyfriend or two there so that they'll stop bugging me. In fact, it had helped me a bit now so I will probably thank Athrun later for that."

Kira burst; he laughed at Athrun's actions, "Okay, I think he did not use his brain during that time, did he?"

He shook his head, "Nope…actually, I am starting to think that he does not really use his brain all the time!"

The two laughed together but still, lover boy, a. k. a. Athrun Zala, was too busy flirting and chatting with the blonde princess, that he did not have the opportunity to eavesdrop or overhear their little conversation.

"Anyway," Kira tried to suppress his laughter, 'Let's talk a little later because I have to talk with Athrun and Cagalli. You don't mind, do you?"

He shook his head, "Just go ahead. I'll just go wreck your priceless piano into pieces if you don't come back by thirty minutes." He threatened him in a friendly manner.

Kira shook his head and headed off to his best friend and older sister.

Athrun's POV

Here I am, sitting beside my gorgeous future wife, the most…the most…the most…responsible(?), intelligent(Kira and Yzak might object) and beautiful(if ever Meer is alive, she'll tear this apart if my thoughts are written in a sheet of paper), Cagalli Yula Athha. Okay, one thing to make things straight, she is not anything near or similar of the perfect woman that I imagined or my dad told me but I don't know, something makes her special…it's like she is wearing red when everyone else wears white. You see, I love Cagalli for who she really is unlike Lacus. Well, when we were engage, I just have this feeling that it is oh so impossible for someone to be oh so sweet, kind, influential to people. Before, I and Yzak, okay, include Dearka, Rusty and Miguel, bet that probably she is adapted or Siegel Clyne is using drugs or some whatchamacallit thing to control her brain. Now…I respect Kira of liking and loving Lacus but if I may say my part, Kira, buddy, remember that I have fore warned you! Remember that!

"EARTH TO ATHRUN!" her voice interrupted my train of thoughts.

I bolted up, "What were you saying again?" and thus, I received a pinch and a hysterical laugh from Shin.

"By the way, have you heard of PROJECT A. L. C. W.?" she inquired and I stared at her blankly. "It A.L.C.W. stands for Athrun is a loser and Cagalli is a Winner!"

I was dumbfounded. Yeah, as in, to the max. Sometimes I can't believe her stupidity.

"Whatever!" I said and saw Kira sitting beside me.

"Hey lovers, how's the wedding kicking?" he asked us and I and Cagalli stared at each other.

"For God's name Kira, we've only been engaged and then you're asking us for our wedding?" she started to heat like a tea pot was set on the stove.

"Just kidding!" he said quickly, wanting no trouble and a body free from injury, "Anyway, I just asked that because Lacus is starting a little business on making wedding garments and every season has different designs of garments."

"Oh!" she hit Kira's head, "You should have told us straight forward!"

"That hurts you know, that hurts you know! It hurts, it HURTS!" then he received a flying kick and s double slap from his older sister.

"Never make stupid punch lines because that's my job." She told him, more like a threat to me.

Throughout the scene, I just scratched the back of my head and laughed it away, wanting a body free from injury.

"Anyway, we're just hoping for a spring wedding, start of the season and sign of start of making changes and moving on." I was surprise with that. I seldom heard her nowadays speak in a serious tone and connote serious things like that.

I smiled, "She's right but will take it slowly because we have a lot of saving to do, isn't that right, Cagalli?" I dared asked her and she just smiled sheepishly.

"Well if that's all, got to go. Shin might wreck my priceless piano!" Kira left in a jiffy. I was happy that after the war, Kira and Shin manage to get along with each other. Strange, they kind of following the saying, the birds with the same feather flock together. After he left, I continued to listen to my lovely princess.

Lacus' POV

"KKKIIIIIIIIRRRRRAAAAAAA!" I screamed, as I feared that no one other than Kira's bf #2, Shin Asuka, might demolish my priceless piano. Strange. I kind of consider him as Kira and Athrun's little brother so I have no problem of adapting and going with the flow, well, that what everyone sees as of now. In fact, I kind of sometimes envy him. It seems that there are times that Kira spend more time with Shin than with me but then again, I must learn to understand and share, right Reverend Malchio? Anyway, it just seems yesterday since the first time I Saw Shin with Athrun, actually, during the first time, I thought that Athrun had a half brother because they kind of look alike, don't you think? When Shin learned that Athrun had a great job, saving Cagalli's big ass, he tag along with Kira and meddled with cars and other mechanical stuffs that I cannot understand.

Kira came in, pulling or pushing Shin away from the piano, "Hey! I wasn't even that long yet!" he protested and Shin just smiled and poked his nose.

"I just want to talk with you again since there is ho Lunamaria or Meyrin to bug the almighty (Thunder begins to sound), makes the impossible possible (Mwu, wherever he is, clenches his fist tightly), Shin Asuka!" then a small piece of confetti fell.

"Nice try but you aren't really getting me, Shin." Kira was dumbfounded.

Then, I felt Athrun tapped my shoulder and mouthed goodbye as he carried Cagalli to their car in bridal style and went were only God knows.

I sighed and looked again at the two coordinators. This will be a long day of cleaning! I then left the scenery.

Dearka's POV

Even thought many people know me as the number one pervert in the gang, I ain't really like that. Honest, swear to God! Okay…cut the last part off. Well, I am actually happy that Yzak overreacted when he picked my name in that (cursed/bewitched as what Yzak has stated) box. It only proves that he is normal and ready for action. I kind of pity him when he found out that Shiho does not really love him and ran away with the Auel guy. It was strange. I know that Yzak and Shiho were meant for each other but why did she betrayed him and ran off all of a sudden. Why did she choose that natural or something than Yzak? I just cannot understand why she did that. I know I love Milly but Shiho's case is off the list. Who can believe that she did that thing to Yzak? What will Ezaria do to her if she finds out about the Shiho and Yzak incident?

I let my hand ran through my blonde hair, "Hey Yak, where are we heading?"

"Hotel, stupid." His reply came short and I smirked to make him angry a little but it also tells me that he is okay and still cool.

God, Milly, if you can hear me wherever you are, help me and tell Shiho to come back!
