I know I know… I have an unfinished Gundam story but… Well I know what I want to write but I don't know how… So until I figure it out I would like to update this new story. I hope you will like it! I am still learning English so there might be some grammar and spelling mistakes… I am really sorry!
Anyway, this story is about Kira and Lacus sometimes after GSD.
I need You
Chapter 1
"Ms Murrue, how much until we can meet with the Eternal?" Kira asked uneasy.
"A few more hours." Murrue said smiling.
The news was shocking and disturbing. A few hours ago, there was an attack on the Plants. Kira was still white with fear. He kept saying no until Mr. Waltfeld and the Eternal signed in finally. Lacus was safe on the ship, and they were heading toward the Archangel. They would have enough time to find out what happened and who attacked the Plants once Lacus was safe with them… near him.
"Don't worry Kira. Everything will be all right." Athrun patted his friend on his back.
Kira smiled his small 'thank you' smile but he couldn't relax until Lacus wasn't there with him so he could protect her in case something happened. Somehow, he felt uneasy and worried. Even more worried than he was when Lacus went to the Planets in the second bloody valentine war.
"I am going to check the Strike Freedom." he said finally and left the bridge.
Athrun and Murrue looked at each other worriedly.
"We better hurry and meet the Eternal if we don't want the kid to go insane." Mu said from his place beside Murrue.
"I am going to keep him company." Athrun said after a while and left the two alone.
"I have a bad feeling." Mu said.
"What do you mean?" Murrue asked frowning.
"I don't know..."
"Captain! We got a massage from the Eternal! They are under attack!"
Murrue wasn't sure who said it... 'The Eternal? What is going on?'
"Where are they? Can we reach them and help?!" Murrue asked fearfully.
"No, they are too far away! Oh my God!" The same solder gasped.
"What?" Mu stood up. "What the hell is going on?!" Mu shouted, he couldn't keep his calm as Murrue did in these situations.
"We lost their sign!"
"Try to find them! Try to contact the ship!"
After what seemed like an eternity, a click could be heard.
"Got them! The video connection is active!" The solder said.
On the screen, they could see the bridge on the Eternal but couldn't hear any voice.
"It is strange." Mu frowned.
"Eternal? Are you there? Mr. Waltfeld? Miss Lacus?" Murrue asked nervously.
Nothing. Then suddenly they saw a flash and heard an explosion. The Eternal exploded before their eyes then the video connection interrupted.
There was silence on the bridge. Everybody looked with wide eyes on the black screen.
"No fucking way!" Mu interrupted the silence.
"Did the Eternal just... explode?"
Something hit the floor with a thud behind them. Turning around they saw Athrun with white face in the door. He dropped the disc he was holding when he heard the solder.
"Athrun..." Murrue began but didn't know what to say.
"It can't be... Lacus..." Athrun hasn't blinked for at least 5 minutes now, his mind didn't want to accept the fact that Lacus could have died.
"But how? Who?" Murrue murmured her confusion and sadness evident in her voice.
"How are we planning to tell this to the kid?" Mu asked suddenly.
"Kira..." Athrun said thinking about his friend. Their grief was nothing in compeer what his friend will feel. He just hoped they won't lose him after this.
"Tell me what?" Kira asked from beside Athrun. He looked around puzzled. His nerves were already on edge and what he saw on his friend's face didn't help at all.
"What is going on?" He asked again taking a step forward.
"Kira... the Eternal..." Murrue began but couldn't finish her sentence, her voice cracked and her eyes were full with tears.
"What? What about the Eternal??" Kira felt as fear took over his whole body. He was sure he was trembling too.
"Kid... Someone attacked the Eternal..." Mu tried to explain but couldn't bring himself to look in his eyes.
"Lacus..." Kira whispered so quietly it was a wonder they heard it.
"Kira, the Eternal exploded." Athrun said shortly.
Kira looked at them with disbelieve in his eyes. "No." he said finally.
"I am really sorry Kira..." Murrue said.
"No... It is a lie!! Lacus is all right!! You are lying!!" Kira shouted, turned around and ran away.
"Kira!" Athrun cried out but Mu grabbed his shoulder before he could follow him.
"Let him be now." He said quietly.
"But!"
"I don't think he understood us. He is in denial now. Maybe it is better this way." Murrue said and couldn't help the tears that escaped her eyes.
"It will be a nightmare when he finally accepts it." Mu murmured.
"Captain! The Strike Freedom! It is lunching!"
Everybody turned to the screen stunned.
"Kira what the hell are you doing!" Athrun shouted through the radio.
Kira didn't answer.
"I don't give permission for you to lunch!" Murrue said but when she saw the boy's face, she went quiet.
Kira looked at them with emotionless eyes and lunched the Freedom.
"Where the hell is he going?!" Mu cried out.
"The Eternal... I have to go after him!" Athrun shouted and ran to the hangar as well.
Murrue looked worriedly at Mu.
"What will we do now?" she asked.

Kira's POV
I flew with full speed toward the coordinates I knew the Eternal would be. It couldn't be true, right? Lacus was all right! She had to be! I didn't know how long I was flaying the next thing I knew my heart broke. I stopped my Gundam. Before my eyes were the Eternal... At least what stayed from it. Funny way the bridge was quiet intact... except it didn't have top. I don't think my mind was working at all. I still couldn't believe what I saw. Slowly I moved my Gundam toward the bridge. Once I stood where the captain's chair should had been I stepped out the Freedom. I heard Athrun shouting something dimly. Was the Justice here? I floated on the bridge, not really caring if I would just float in the space and couldn't find my way back to the Freedom again. I didn't care. The only thing in my mind was Lacus.
"Lacus..." I whispered when the Justice landed beside me.
"What the hell are you doing Kira?! Are you crazy?! Come back!" Athrun shouted but like I said, I didn't care.
Suddenly I saw something shining and I bent down to look at it. I wish I hadn't done it... It was Lacus' golden hairclip...
"Kira..." Athrun whispered beside me. It seemed he also got off his Gundam.
"No..." I whispered brokenly.
Athrun glanced at the hairclip in my hand.
"Kira..."
Suddenly there was a heart-breaking cry. It took sometimes until I noticed it was me, who was crying. My tears ran down my face like a river. My heart broke in thousands tiny parts and eventually it stopped beating. I am sure it did. The grief blinded me, I let out another cry, and my grip on the hairclip hardened.
I didn't know how or when I got back to the Archangel. The only thing I knew, my tears didn't stop. I was still crying while I was lying on the bed in the infirmary. I was on infusion because they were afraid I would get dehydrated. I didn't know I had so many tears... The grief slowly took control on my mind completely and I sobbed out Lacus name again.

Narrator POV
"How long is this going on?" Murrue asked.
Athrun, Mu and Murrue were standing outside the infirmary.
"For 4 hours now. I don't know how much more he can take." Athrun said glancing at the closed door.
"He should have fallen asleep a long time ago. I mean, come on, who can keep crying for 4 hours without passing out?" Mu said running his finger through his hair nervously.
"At least the shouting is over..." Murrue closed her eyes. As long as she lived, she wouldn't forget the state Kira was in when he came back from the Eternal, he couldn't stand without Athrun's help, he was crying and shouting Lacus' name over and over again. The pain and grief in his voice was unbearable. Now he stopped shouting but he wasn't sleeping, only crying and never letting go of the golden hairclip.
"What do we do now?" Mu asked.
"I hope he will fell asleep soon. When he wakes up, I will try to talk with him. Miss. Murrue can you please contact Cagalli?" Athrun said.
Murrue nodded and they left for the bridge.
Okay so this was the first chapter. Did you like it? I am a big Lacus/Kira fan and I always wondered how Kira would react if Lacus dies… Well I am letting you know she didn't really die I will explain it later! Please please let me know what you think!
