Hi, Mayu's here! Here is my fourth fanfiction, my second not one-shot fic. But this stories will not be long as Archangel High, maybe just around 9-11 chapters. Please enjoy and don't forget to review!
"What! My poem lost!"shouted Cagalli.
Her bestfriend, a pink haired girl nodded and smiled faintly.
"We've copied the poem that is won. Here it is."said Miriallia Haw, one of Cagalli's bestfriend and had the short brown hair.
Cagalli, the blonde who was an active girl and the most popular girl in Kusanagi High looked gloom. She was known as the best poet in her form and now she was lost for the first time.
"Lacus, take my poem. I want to compare it with this one."she odered the pink haired girl.
Lacus Clyne obeyed the order. She took a book and gave it to Cagalli. Cagalli opened the book. "I wonder what's wrong with this poem…"she grumbled. She loud the poem loudly.
In this quiet night … I'm waiting for you…
Forgiving the past…and dreaming of you…
Time passes by…and memories fade…
But time can't erase…
the love that we've made…
And the the stars in the sky…
That I wish upon could lead you back to my side…
Though you not here with me, I dream of the day…
We'll meet again…
Hold me close…so deep in your heart
I will find you…no matter where I have to go
And dream of me, for I will be there…
Follow the stars that will lead you…
into the quiet night…
"I think, nothing is wrong with this poem…"said Miriallia.
Lacus nodded, agreeing with Miriallia. "But, let's take a look at the winner's poem."
Cagalli read the poem, entitled, Shinkai no Kodoku.
Teach me about sadness…
If you closed your eyes, you won't gaze into sadness…
If you forget the feeling of warmth, you won't feel pain
I can't recall that gentle voice
In the depth of my mourning heart
Someone is calling me, from my forgetten past
Asking me when I will take the sorrow back into my hands again
At the moment that will never come twice
You are all that I can see
A little ship glitters silently in the distant, all alone
Swept away by the torrent of grief , it disappears under the waves of my heart.
Why doI search the ocean depths
For the warmth that I should not have known
Swaying with the ripples, the ship of life sails on
Though no stars can bee seen, it overcomes waves and advances on
Beyond the darkness, you are all I can see
The waves that we saw arrre flowing towards senerity
Flowing to the kindness that disappeared underwater.
I know there's a future where we will love each other
Until I take the sorrow back to my hands again
At the moment that will never come twice,
You are all I can see…
The three of them silenced for a while after Cagalli finished reading the poem. The first person who talked was Lacus.
"I'm sorry, Cagalli…but I think…this poem is great."she said.
"I'm agree with Lacus."said Miriallia, smiling.
Cagalli cursed under her breath. She hated to hear her friends complimented the other poems except for hers but she couldn't change the fact that the poem was better than hers.
"Who is the writer?"she asked.
"Athrun Zala."answered Lacus.
Athrun Zala was not a familiar name for Cagalli. But she felt that she ever heard that name. She tried hard to think who was the Athrun Zala but couldn't find it in her mind.
"He is from which class? Not ours, right? I know all the boys in our class."
Miriallia scratched her head. "…Umm…if I'm not made mistake…he is in…2-B, right, Lacus?"
Lacus nodded.
Cagalli rolled her eyes towards Lacus. " You know about him a lot, aren't you?"
"Yes. He is my ex."Lacus answered calmly.
"WHAT!" Miriallia and Cagalli shouted as Lacus covered her ears. She knew that would be their respond.
"He is your ex? Your boyfriend before Kira?"asked Miriallia, disbelievingly.
Again, Lacus nodded. "But we became a couple just for two weeks. I can't stand him. He's my type, calm and cool but Athrun is just too calm and too cool. I heard he is still single now."
Cagalli thought. They would have a one week holiday started from tomorrow. And after that, there would be a poem contest again. If only she could be close to this Athrun in this holiday and asked him how to make a good poem…No, she shoved the idea. He wouldn't give tips to her that easy. Wait…if she could seduce him…
"Lacus."she called.
"Yes?"
"He's in 2-B, right?"
Lacus nodded. "But I think he is in the library now; he is a book maniac."
"Okay, thanks!"with that Cagalli dashed from the room.
Miriallia and Lacus looked at themselves.
"What's wrong with her?"asked Miriallia.
Lacus just shrugged.
"Sis, I heard you lost in the poem contest, I'm sorry for you", a male voice suddenly could be heard.
The two girls turned to the voice. Their eyes met Kira who saw playing with his cell phone. No wonder he didn't notice that Cagalli wasn't in the room.
"If you were talking to Cagalli just now, I'm sorry but she's not here."said Lacus.
Kira was shocked as he heard Lacus' voice. He immediately put his cell phone in his pocket. Then he looked around the room and finally noticed that Cagalli was not there.
He chuckled at his own clumsiness. "…Umm, where's Cagalli?"he asked.
"We don't know. She dashed from the room after asking about Athrun Zala."answered Miriallia.
'Athrun Zala!' thought Kira. He quickly looked at Lacus who looked down when the name Athrun Zala was mention. They silenced for a while.
Miriallia scratched her head, looking at the couple. 'What's wrong with them?'she thought.She felt bored in the silence.
Five minutes passed but no one spoke. Miriallia gave up. "Hey! What's wrong with you two! Are you playing a game or what!"she retorted.
Lacus stood up. "Sorry, I have music class now. See you." she said as she walked out from the room.
"Kira, doushite? What's wrong with Lacus?"Miriallia asked curiously.
Kira just walked out from the room. "Ask herself what's wrong with her."he said before closing the door.
Miriallia blinked her eyes. Was she just talking with Kira Yamato? But Kira Yamato wouldn't talk like that about his beloved girlfriend. And Lacus never ignored Kira like she did just now. There's must be something very wrong with the couple.
"Ah! Why must I bother about their problem! Wait…it's 4.20 already, and I have a date with Dearka at 5.00! I must hurry!"
"Shoot! I forgot to ask them what he looks like…"Cagalli grumbled when she was at the library. She forgot that she never saw the Athrun Zala that she was looking for.
Her eyes, then, caught a figure who was reading a book quietly. He had the very charming blue hairs and his clothes expensive.
'Wow! He's my type of guy! …umm…what if I ask him…' thought Cagalli.
Cagalli approached the guy and sat beside him. "Excuse me."she said.
The guy looked up and their eyes met. Cagalli felt thet his eyes were the most beautiful eyes she ever seen in the world. She didn't why but her heart started to beat faster.
"Stop staring at me. What do you want?"asked the guy.
Cagalli woke up. She remembered her intention. "Ah, sorry. I want to ask if you know someone by name Athrun Zala?"
"I'm Athrun Zala. Why?"he asked indifferently.
Cagalli's eyes widened. So this was Athrun Zala! She started her plan.
"…Uh…umm…Athrun, hi…umm…can we talk somewhere else…?"Cagalli acted as innocent as she could.
Athrun took it calmly, not like the other boys. There was no even a single blush on his face. "Here is fine. What is it?"
'What! He didn't blush? He's weird…' thought Cagalli.
"…Umm…that… my name is Cagalli, Cagalli Yula Attha…umm…I like to be your girlfriend…can I? Please… I really like you."pleaded Cagalli.
"I'm sorry but I'm not interested."
His answer made Cagalli disappointed. No guy ever rejected her and now this guy…rejected her.
'Fine. What about this…'Cagali thought as she moved her face closer to Athrun's. Then, she kissed his lips passionately without thinking about the people who were watching.
Athrun was shocked. 'W-What…? She kissed me…? … umm…she's not bad, I should think about her offer…'thought Athrun as he responded back.
They broke the long kiss. Both of them panted.
"You're good…"complimented Cagalli as she blushed a little. She didn't expect that Athrun would respond.
"Cagalli, right? I accept you offer but we will break up if I think I'm bored with you or you think you're bored with me."Athrun said, reading back his book to hide the blush on his face.
'Oh my God, why did I blush?'he cursed under his breath.
Cagalli was stunned at first. Then, she realized what Athrun just said. Athrun accepted her! Her first step had succeed. She hugged Athrun happily and kissed his both cheek.
"Thanks, Athrun!"she cried happily.
'I'm gonna win, Zala…I'm gonna win this time…'
How is it? I'll not update until next two weeks. I'm going to sit for an important exam so I must concentrate on my study. Please review, I won't continue this story if you all don't like it. See ya!
