To Only Love You More
Disclaimers: I do not own Gundam Seed, they belong to their respective owners and that's that. Although having a guy that looks like Athrun around wouldn't be so bad, eh?
Story takes place during the time of Gundam Seed, although since I'm not familiar with the new series only been reading up on the current episodes as they come up. So if I'm not 100 true, I apologize and will try to correct as I go along.
Chapter one
Night had fallen upon the earth and what would seem like a peaceful night was not always peaceful. It had seemed the two years of quiet time of peace was over to only be started up again by an attack on Orb. However the stars seem not to agree with what was going on around them. They shined brilliantly in the night sky that even in a moment of turmoil there was time to for even a moment of peace.
Kira Yamato stood on the balcony of the orphanage where he was found after a raging battle two years previous, and enjoyed the night sky. His part of the war had been currently over until this new development as he decides whether or not to move into action will be a different story. Until the time of decision making, he was going to be content right where he is standing.
He felt hands slide across his side to meet in front of his stomach and someone's head resting against his back. He smiled already knowing who it was; it was his center of peace and love. After the war he was lost and confused and hurt by all of the events that took place. He had lost many friends and allies during the war of his time. He was only sixteen and had taken a huge responsibility of protecting a ship and its crew. And through one moment of a brief meeting that would lead to another, was Lacus Clyne his peace.
Lacus let out a sweet sigh as she lay against her boyfriend, the two did not become a couple right after the war but waited till Kira was ready to be in a relationship, one that was true. Lacus had waited patiently only to be surprised one night when Kira entered her room only to shower her with a passionate kiss. The two had made love maybe not in the most romantic way the first time around, but he did make up for the romance later along the line.
"What are you so content about Lacus?" Kira's voice waking Lacus out of a sweet daydream she was having of him, more like a memory of many occasions they shared intimate moments.
"Just remembering," Lacus replied and Kira just chuckled as he turned around in her arms to hug her in return.
"Oh really, remembering what now?" Kira asked in a teasing tone. He would only receive a small sweet smile and a short kiss on his lips.
"If you want to, we can go to the bedroom and I can show you what I was remembering." Lacus whispered sweetly and yet seductively into his ear.
Kira just laughed and held Lacus closer to him. She had been a center post in his life for quite some time now and he could not imagine life without her. Though she still portrayed that sweet and innocent Lacus from the past however there was much more to her than what most would like to believe. The sweet innocent girl was actually quite vixen when she wished to be.
Kira enjoyed the fact he was the only one that would see this side of her, but she was a hellcat when she wished to be concerning matters that needed to be settled. He placed a soft kiss on her forehead and quickly pulls her back into the house to lead her back into their bedroom which they now share.
In the mist of Kira and Lacus's bliss, there was turmoil in some other's soul that was closer in their relations than one would believe. Cagalli Yula Athha was on several different missions of peace talks. After Orb being under attack on earth she was spending more and more time trying to calm some areas to renew hope. After her adoptive father's death she was automatically placed as the leader of Orb and the official representative.
She looked herself in the mirror, she was wearing a traditional outfit that a representative of Orb would wear and resembled what her father wore before he died. She then stood up and walked over to her closet to pull out something more elegant. She didn't like to wear dresses that much but however it seemed they were not talking her serious in the current attire she chose to wear.
She pulled off each article of clothing and pulled out a red formal gown. She sighed and changed. As she was pulling up her dress her personal body guard walked in upon her to freeze in his position. He had never seen her in a state that she was in, but she didn't seem to budge from her position as she pulled the dress completely over her body. She turned her head over her shoulder to see him standing behind her.
"Athrun, could you zip me up please," Athrun didn't know how to respond and after a few moments of hesitation walked over to her and pulled the zipper up from its relatively low position on the gown. Cagalli lifted her hair up as she felt the dress get tighter as he pulled it up higher. She had let her hair grow slightly longer in the past two year but not much.
"There," Athrun told her and she let her hair fall down. She then turned and walked over to her dresser where she was looking in the mirror earlier. She then pulled out a brush to pull her hair up into a red rhinestone stone clip. Athrun quickly broke the silence, "You changed, why?"
"It seems that not only some of the men I've been speaking with but women too have forgotten that I'm a girl," Cagalli replied once she was finished with her hair. She then stood up to go find her shoes but Athrun held up a pair of red strap heels that she was looking for. "Thank you," She took the shoes from him to only sit down to put them on her feet.
"I haven't forgotten," Athrun said to only receive an empty stair from Cagalli.
After a few moments of silence Cagalli turned her face away to speak, "Have you? It seems you are more interested in protecting me and flying that new mobile suit of yours." Cagalli stood up to walk out of her room to be caught in Athrun's grasp.
"Cagalli, my job is to protect you it was entrusted Colonel Kisaka. And now I'm doing something that my heart tells me to do and that is protecting you and people aboard that ship." Athrun told her softly and hoping she would understand.
"You say that Athrun, but you never seem to get what I'm trying to say." Cagalli said sadly and pulled her arm out of his grip and walked out of the room.
Athrun ran his hand through his hair and quickly followed out after her. He never could understand what she was talking about. It confused him to no end, they were close and spend a large amount of together whether professionally as bodyguard/representative or as in a close relationship. He was never sure of what Cagalli wanted to hear or know from him.
However that was a lie and he knew it. It had to do with the kiss their shared two years ago and a few small moments that they have shared over the two years. He admits that he hasn't laid his lips on hers for quite some time and wanted to remember what that kiss felt like. It almost seemed as if he was letting their new positions get in the way of things and now with this new development and him standing aboard of ZAFT ship might be also a factor.
Athrun was glad that Cagalli hadn't walked to far from her room and quickly after her; they had landed on a space colony, a PLANT colony no less. He noticed that Cagalli was right about her assumption of people mistaking her as a male but now he didn't like the stares she was receiving dressed up. He hadn't noticed but the dress had a slit in the front that showed a clear view of one of her legs but a sneak view of the other when she walked.
When did she start wearing dresses like this? Athrun stated to himself as he looked at his 'assignment' and noticed more and more about the dress he liked but not like the attention she was receiving. He noticed the dress also revealed that she was showing off what too much of her breasts to the public.
Cagalli seemed unaffected by the remarks a few ZAFT soldiers were making about her. It seemed the usual spit fire wasn't going to go off, but internally she was raging like a storm that has yet to settle on the ground. She vowed today she was going to act like a lady today even if it wanted to make her lash out. She was going to behave like a girl even if it killed her.
Cagalli entered the conference room to only hear gasps and have them standing to their feet. Athrun just followed behind her till she reached her seat, he pulled it out for her and pushes it gently back in as she sat down. The council members looked at her as if they were looking at a ghost, they did not realize that the young Orb Princess spit fire was dressed as a beautiful young woman.
For what seemed like ages there was silence as the other members took their seat but the meeting seems as if it were not to start. "What are you staring at? There is a meeting to attend to is there not?" Cagalli said civilly to the members and they seemed amazed by the woman sitting in the chair before them. Slowly the meeting took place and like always no progress was made, at least in Cagalli's opinion.
As the meeting drew to a close Cagalli stood up and walked out of the room. Athrun, of course, was following right behind her. He didn't know what to make of the girl walking before him, she was something of amazement. He seemed to be lost in his thought and didn't realized that Cagalli had stopped till he bumped into her and felt her hands on his chest. He looked up to see her tear eyes.
"I'm sorry," she simply said and Athrun embraced her confused at her sudden apology.
"For what," Athrun whispered into her ear.
"I don't know, I just wanted to say sorry," Cagalli said as she looked up into his deep green eyes. Athrun stared into her golden orbs to only smile; he kissed her softly on her forehead.
"You hungry," Athrun asked and received a nod. He held her hand to lead her away further from the conference room to go outside to find something for them to eat. Athrun came to a quick halt and turned to look at Cagalli with a smile. "By the way, before I forget. You look great in that dress, although I don't know if I approve the new ZAFT cadets looking at you."
Cagalli playfully punch Athrun on the shoulder and both shared a moment of laughter as he led her away from the building. However, their moment was going to be shattered quickly the moment they were to step out the door and to return to the ZAFT ship which held a few of their new acquaintances and to reunite with a few of Athrun's former comrades.
Well here it is…I know it might not be much but it is something I started cooking up on the top of my head. I hope you enjoyed what it is so far. Those of you that are familiar with a few of my other stories, I'm sorry I haven't updated for quite some time due to a huge writer's block for all them. I will try to update them when I can.
Anyway thanks for reading and I'll update soon, I hope.
