Somewhere Out There
A Kira and Lacus FanFic
I was bored so I just decided to write this... please leave reviews so that I could have ideas on how to continue...
Chapter 1: Distant Dreams
She stood there outside the window of the big mansion. She was watching the waves and how it would look like in the night. She sighed deeply, as she recalled the past events of her miserable life. She recalled that day when she decided to join the war, all because of one man- Kira Yamato.
Her pink locks cover her face so she brushed them away. She was sad and in pain and she didn't want to remember any more sad things... especially that time when a certain red-haired girl survived the war and her lips locked on to a certain brown-haired coordinator. It was not like she wanted her to die, but for that reason she could not tell Kira how she felt for him- it would only leave him confused; that would be the last thing she would want to do.
In fact, she wasn't looking at the waves. She was looking at the couple kissing near the shore. It was Kira and Fllay- the brown-haired coordinator and the red-haired natural. She seemed to love the sight since Kira was really happy but a bolt of jealousy stung to her soul and it brought her tears- tears that would never shed.
She continued to look at the happy couple kissing under the moon light. It would be hard to face the facts that they are already engaged- or maybe they got engaged after the first war- either of the situation broke her heart and the pieces are too scattered to be cleaned up.
Kira gazed into her blue and loving orbs. He would often wonder why he quickly asked her to be his fiancé but he knew what he should do... he needed to protect her at all costs.
His arms were around her waist as he inched forward and kissed her again, longing for her touch. He devoured her lips and licked the insides of it. He would never get enough of her. She parted away from him to breath and a smirk escaped her lips.
"I love you Fllay..." whispered Kira as he pulled her into an embrace so promising that no words could ever explain- no words could ever say.
Fllay didn't answer but just melted in his arms.
Now you know why Lacus is so sad?
Sometimes she wondered why Kira wanted her to stay... sometimes she wondered why Kira would embrace her every time she would be sad or think about her father's death. What would that mean?
He looked into her eyes and sensed the sadness within; but she was still smiling like there's no tomorrow- or maybe crying like there's no tomorrow. It either way. She could often ask questions like why is he this so damn nice that everyone can take advantage of him. She couldn't even find the answer unto why she loved him so deeply. I guess the heart has a reason that reason itself cannot understand.
She shook her head. Since when did she have this kind of crazy logic about love and relationships?
Kira continued to look at her so worriedly. "Are you all right Lacus?" he asked, his voice filled with concern. She didn't look at him; she knew she would give in and somehow bring herself once again in his arms. Why did she have to fall in love with him? The hell she didn't care- but a part of her wanted to...at least she tried to.
He stretched his had to wipe away the now falling tears. She flinched at his touch and he wondered why. She never hesitated to before- 'what's wrong?' he thought. She wasn't moving nor was she hearing everything he was blurting out- she wanted him to just leave her alone with her thought and, as what she was thinking, her crazy logic about damn love and relationships!
To her surprise, he brought her into his arms in a very loving embrace. He knew her problem- oh really?
"You can stay with us- with Athrun and the others. I don't wanna leave you like this..." he whispered, tears now running down his eyes. He wasn't used to seeing her like this... no.
Lacus sobbed but silently; she didn't want to burden him with her problems- the same old Lacus right?
What the hell was he doing embracing Lacus after finally asking Fllay to be with him- forever?! Love really sucks!
"I'm sorry," she said, while breaking the embrace. She was wiping the tears away and the next thing he knew was that she was smiling all over again. "I don't want to leave you like this. You can stay with us, please..." he begged. This time he caught her gaze and he caressed her shoulders. She hated the way her skin would react to his touch; she had no other choice. She later nodded in agreement and Kira was smiling so happily. Maybe he did have something for her- that's waiting to be revealed. 'Shut the hell up Lacus!' she scolded; her thought now dominating her entire being.
He led her out of the dark hallway to join the celebration.
She sighed heavily, 'I wish I had left a long time ago...' she thought, now really getting so depressed. She closed her window and returned back in bed with those teary eyes. As a teen, they say that you should never take love seriously but now its giving her a disease known as self-denial! Damn does she enjoy the feeling of getting hurt!
She continued to cry and then she fell asleep.
The next day she woke; she did her early routine. She would greet Kira a good morning and prepare food for the orphans with the help of Fllay of course; go to Cagalli and give her advise, take care of the children and have some talk with Athrun. Is Kira really that lucky to have two girls living in his own residence?
After her work she went outside to look at the ocean. Kira and Fllay along with the children went to the mall. She decided not to come along since she wanted to see the sunset.
"You okay Lacus?" asked a very familiar voice. She turned around and saw Andy looking at her so worriedly.
"Mr. Waltfelt; I was thinking maybe we could go to the PLANT's and live their. I know father would never want me to stay here. After all, who would take care of things he had left for me?"
Andy smirked, "Are you sure it's about your father's inheritance or is it about Kira?" Lacus flinched at the idea and caught herself laughing.
"I thought you would never notice..." she whispered.
Andy smiled, "If you wanna look for a life back at the PLANT's then I can help you; since I'm your godfather, I can't leave you like this right?" he said, with a bit of humor in his tone, "When do you want to leave Lacus?"
Lacus closed her eyes, "I was thinking tomorrow... or maybe as soon as possible; I just wanna get out of here!" she exclaimed, her eyes now teary. Andy nodded in agreement.
"What?!" shouted Cagalli as she heard Lacus' request. "Why are you leaving and where will you live? Did my brother tell you to leave or have you told my brother about your departure tonight?" Cagalli asked. Lacus was a bit shocked at her expression; she didn't expect Cagalli to worry about her this much.
"You idiot, why will you leave? Don't you know that your life may be in danger out there! Damn!" Cagalli continued. Lacus could only smile, "I can't tell Kira I'm leaving. I know he won't approve to it. I wanted you to know because I don't want him to end up trying to find me..." Lacus said, her voice now trembling.
Does Cagalli know her situation or not? "Why do you want to leave?" she asked. Lacus paused for a bit then raised her head, "I want to find my own life- again. I know its hard to start from the very beginning but I'll have to try."
Cagalli frowned but she had to respect Lacus' decision, "what will the orphans say?" she asked. Lacus didn't answer, "Is it because of that bitch Fllay?" she mumbled. Lacus was a bit dumbfounded, "Cagalli, don't say such things!"
"Oh yeah, she was a bitch before and you said she had changed... it's pretty hard to believe but... you said it!" Cagalli cheered, trying to make the surrounding lively. Lacus only smiled.
Cagalli gave up, "Oh well; since you do wanna leave then I'll just tell my brother tonight. Are you sure you're not saying goodbye to him?" with hopes of making her stay until tonight so that Kira could stop her. Lacus shook her head in disagreement.
Cagalli sighed heavily and dialed something on her phone.
IN A HUGE TRANSPORT PLANE
"I'm going to miss this place Mr. Waltfelt," she whispered weakly as the plane started its engines.
"Any chances of us coming back here?" DaCosta asked; Andy decided he should come along. "No DaCosta... there are no chances," she replied weakly, tears now starting to form in her eyes. She looked at her watch- it was 7 p.m. At this time Kira and the others would arrive at home.
"Cagalli, when Kira arrives tell him to look inside my drawer and his room table. I took away something from him and I left something for him at the same time... promise me." Lacus looked so sad yet still very determined.
Cagalli looked so confused, "I will but..." when she saw the very sad look on her face, she stopped asking, "Okay... I promise Lacus,"
If we can't be together...
Kira opened the door to his residence and found the house empty.
In this time and place...
He looked worried and so were the others behind him. He looked to every room inside except for Lacus' room since he thought that she was with Cagalli.
I don't know if I can still wait or hope that you will find me...
He ran outside the shore to try and find anyone, 'Andy, DaCosta; where are you guys?' he thought. He was breathing hard, 'Lacus... where are you?' Cagalli wouldn't answer her cell phone.
I just want you to know Kira...
He opened his room and found out that the ring that Lacus gave to him was gone!
That all this time...
He opened Lacus' room and found no more clothes inside her drawer and a sheet of paper fell off.
I...
Kira couldn't stop the tears from escaping her eyes. He clenched the piece of paper in his hands and went outside the room. Fllay was looking at him, confused.
"They're gone...to live in the PLANT's
Had loved you
Fllay's eyes widened a bit but happiness also streamed down her cheeks, 'it's a good thing that bitch got out of here. Now I got Kira for myself!' she thought evilly.
"Why didn't she tell me she was leaving?"
Even from the beginning...
"Lacus..."
