Chapter 1/A Past, A Girl and A New Boy
In a sunny evening, there were three little kid around the age of 7 at a field. One of them was a little girl with bright blonde hair while the others were boys. The boys were wearing the expensive-looking clothes, especially the one who wore a green hat.
"Arrgh! Give my pendant back! My Dad will kill me if I lost that!"shouted a blonde little girl. "Give it back! Give it ba…umm…"
A kiss covered his mouth. The blonde's eyes widened while her kisser's eyes closed. Her kisser was a cute little boy with his quite long blue hair hanging freely in his back. His hat fell as he made a lip-lock with the little blonde. Another little boy was gasping anxiously behind him.
"Hey, we must go now…I'm afraid your care-taker will find us…come on…He's near…"said the another boy with green-short hair as he looked at a device with worried face.
The blue-haired broke the kiss short. He was holding a pendant in his right hand. The little blonde was red with both anger and shy. Her clenched her fist angryly and glared at the boy who kissed him just now. For her surprise, the two boys had just ran away.
From a far, the blue-haired boy shouted as he waved. "I'll return this later! Thanks for the kiss! I'll kiss you longer when we grow up! Promise! Hahaha, farewell!"
The blonde girl gnashed her teeth and tried to catch up with the two boys. Unfortunately, they were too far from her and she fell accidentally. The blue-haired boy noticed this and stopped. So did his friend. "Hey! Don't run after us! I promise I'll return this! Take good care of my hat, I don't have time to pick it up now! We'll meet again and return each other belonging!"
"But that pendant is…!"Too late for the blonde girl to complete her sentence. The boys were already disappear from her sight, leaving her no choice but to pick the hat that the boy had left and cried on her way home. She was sure that her father would kill her when he knew she had lost her pendant.
Orb High School.
"Hey, do you know, Cagalli? They said a transfer student will study at our school and in our class. I wonder how the new student looks like…"said a pink-haired girl with star-shaped clip at her hair dreamingly.
Everyone knew her as Meer Campbell, who had sweet voice and stunning long- pink hair. But most of the boy remembered her by her outer look or to be more exact, her wonderful body shape. She was still single even after searching for a boyfriend for almost three years.
Her friend, Cagalli Yula Attha whom she talked to didn't seemed to hear her since she was busy finishing her Biology homework. Meer frowned when she realized that Cagalli didn't listen to her. She turned to her twin sister, who smiled at her symphatically.
Meer pouted at her twin sister childishly. "Look at her, Lacus. At least she listen to me…Why didn't she do that homework at home? The homework supposed to be done at home, right?"she grumbled.
Her twin sister, Lacus Clyne just smiled and carressed her twin's hair softly. She seemed more matured than Meer even though Meer was older than her. And she already had a boyfriend, Kira Yamato who happened to be Cagalli's twin brother. She also had the same sweet voice as Meer and the two was really looked similar. Only the ones who were close to them could recognize them apart.
"Hah! I'm done! There's no way that Seylan could put me in detention today!" exclaimed Cagalli suddenly as she banged the table happily. She turned at Meer who was still frowning. "What did you say just now?"
"I said a transfer student will come to our class today. They said, it was a boy. Oh… I hope Cupid will come to me…"again, Meer said dreamingly.
Cagalli narrowed her eyes at her, feeling bored with her storied about boys. Cagalli was not the type of girl like Meer. She didn't like to flirt with boys and definitely wouldn't let the boys to flirt with her. Some students said she was a tomboy. She didn't deny it but even agreed with them. She really didn't interested at boys, until some of the girls said she was a homosexsual.
Unlike the tomboy calling, Cagalli hated the homosexsual calling very much. She threatened the girls who said that to say it again and she would kill them proudly. No one dared to say it again until now since all of them knew how strong Cagalli was. Even Kira, her twin, couldn't match with her.
Kira, on the other hand, was a crybaby. Cagalli just hated to admit that she was younger than Kira by two minutes. Only Lacus felt symphaty at Kira's attitide and promised would try to change it gradually.
"Uh, you and your boys…I wonder when it will end…"
Meer made an angry face. "Hah! At least I'm not like you, reading manga all the time! High school is where we find our love and this is our last year in high school, you know!"she retorted, seeing Cagalli took out her Death Note manga from her bag.
Lacus smiled as she noticed something under Cagalli's desk. She knew Cagalli always brought that thing along but she never asked what was it. She decided to ask it now.
"What is the thing in your desk, Cagalli?"she asked curiously.
"Eh, what thing? Show it to us, Cagalli!"urgued Meer.
Cagalli took the thing out from her desk and put it on the table without saying anything. She continued to read her manga.
Meer and Lacus took a look at the thing. It was a hat, a small hat for the teens like the three. The twin looked at themselves confusely. They wondered why Cagalii brought the thing to school. Cagalli wasn't a girl who always played with the kid even though her mother was working at an orphanage.
"I'm sorry, Cagali but what the hell is this?"asked Lacus.
"A hat, can't you see?"Cagalli answered it coldly.
Meer pouted. "Yeah, everyone know it is a hat. But whose hat? Don't tell this is your hat."she retorted.
Cagalli put down the manga that she was reading. She looked at the hat. The old memory came back into her mind.
"It…belonged to a boy. I met him when I was small. I bring it anytime in case I meet him accidentally. It has been ten years."
Lacus and Meer looked at themselves. A evil grin drew at the twins's lips. Meer punched Cagalli's shoulder playfully while Lacus smiled with a mischievious glint in her baby-blue eyes.
"I know now, Cagalli! You have someone to wait! No wonder you don't interested in searching boyfriend!"said Meer teasingly.
"H-Hey! I didn't say he was my boyfriend! He wasn't my friend either! We met one day and he took my pendant! Yes, I'm waiting for him. Waiting him to return my pendant!" Cagalli retorted as she was ready to hit Meer with her manga. Meer quickly hid behind her sister.
Lacus still wore her sweet smile. "So you did wait, right? Anyway, isn't it great if you two meet again and fall in love?"
Cagalli was about to reply before her brother, Kira rushed at them and ushered them to sit at their seat since the teacher had came. Meer was trembling excitedly. She was sure the teacher came with the new student.
Meer was indeed right. Their class teacher, Miss Murrue came with a boy behind her. The girls, except Lacus and Cagalli, whispered excitedly.
"Good morning, class. As you all know, today we will have a new student, He had transferred from PLANT High School. Mr. Zala, introduce yourself please?"
The boy stepped in front. The girls began to squel more loudly. The guy was just too perfect. His midnight blue hair and emerald eyes stunned anyone who saw them. He smiled sweetly.
"Hello, everyone. My name is Athrun Zala. Nice to meet you all."
Cagalli stared at Athrun. Old memoried started to resurface but the image of the boy in her mind was still unclear. She wondered if Athrun was the boy since her heart said so but she didn't want to admit it. Maybe it was a coincidence. Many people had blue hair and emerald eyes, not only him.
"Yeah...I don't think he is the one...Even if he is the one, maybe he had already forgotten about it..."thought Cagalli as she hoped what she thought was true.
"Mr. Zala, your seat is beside Miss Attha. Miss Attha, raise your hand please?" said Miss Murrue.
A hand risen relucantly. Cagalli knew he would sat beside her since there was only one seat left. Meer pouted disapprovingly. She hoped Athrun could sit beside her.
Athrun looked at the blonde who raised her hand just now. He didn't know why but he thought he ever met her. He walked aprroaching the blonde and sat beside her. Drawing his smile, he offered his hand to her.
"Nice to meet you...umm..."
"Cagalli Yula Attha." replied Cagalli coldly as she ignored Athrun's hand.
The blue-haired guy drew back his hand and smiled. "Nice to meet you, Cagalli. I can call you Cagalli, can't I?"
"Whatever."
She's cold. I wonder why. Look like I will have fun in my last semester. But she's quite cute...hah! What are you thinking now, Athrun Zala! You come here to study! Athrun thought in his mind. Furthermore, I have to wait for someone...No, I can't fall in love with anyone now...
How is it? Hope you all like it. There's a announcement here...I'm sorry to say that I can't update any faster than once a month. This also goes to all my multi-chapter fics. I'm very sorry. Anyway...it's review time! Please, review?
