A/N: My latest fic of Gundam Seed. And as always, an AthrunxCagalli fic, but this time, the fic has a love triangle. The pairing is: Surprise CharacterxAthrunxCagalli. The story is from the Surprise Character's point of view.
Disclaimer: If I did own Gundam Seed then I won't be wasting my time writing fics.
"Only Friends"
Chapter One
I take a peek on the huge audience from behind the stage curtains, hoping that I could see you.
I reserved a seat for you, on the front row. So that you maybe able to see me perform clearly.
You are everything to me, my light in the dark, the blood on my veins, my life, my world.
I need you like water to quench my thirst, I need you like oxygen to live.
Without you, I'm incomplete, I'm sad, I'm dead. You're my one and only love.
Someone tapped me on the shoulder, I looked behind me and notice tat it was just Flay, Flay Allster.
She's Kira's girlfriend. And her best friend, I'm merely just her friend and noting else more than that but maybe something lower than that too. How I envy Flay, she has her love one on her palms, unlike I, who doesn't.
"You're up next." Flay informed me and tossed me a bottle of water "Good luck!"
Then she ran to the stairs leading down to the audience.
I saw her hug and peck Kira just before she sat down beside him and hugged his arm.
I heard my name being announced by the host, that was my cue to go in front of the people and perform. Perform for them, for him.
I took a deep breath and I walked out from the curtains.
The lights were still off, I was behind the microphone. A microphone that I didn't own.
I hate using things that aren't mine, I think of those as garbage. That's why I use my head-microphone. So that I may dance around.
All these are for you.
I see your face in mind before the lights went on, signaling me to start.
"In this quiet night…" I begin to sing.
I looked at your seat but only to find you that you weren't there.
I continued to sing and dance, I thought positively. You were just late, traffic maybe or you ran out of gas.
As I was almost at the end of the song, I was about to fall in tears. But I still fought hard to keep composure.
You didn't come, I told you lots of times to come. I reminded you three times a day. But you didn't show up.
As the song ended, I bowed down. Then looked at Kira and Flay, they had worried faces. Yet, somewhere in my mind, I think that they know something that I don't, something very important.
But still, I thought again, did I do bad?
I walked back behind the curtains. I took a seat, sighed and drank from my water bottle that Flay handed to me earlier.
Then Kira and Flay arrived.
"Great job!" Kira complemented.
"It's your best performance!" Flay squealed happily "You've got a great voice you know that?"
I nodded sadly, I tried to reply and smile happily. But nothing would come out from my mouth, but a fake smile.
Tears threatened to fall from my eyes. I tried to hold them, but I couldn't. They fell freely.
I placed my hands on my face and cried. Cried my sadness out.
"Why?" I sobbed bitterly.
Kira and Flay looked at each other worriedly. Then they comforted me.
"Why isn't he here?" I cried some more.
"Doesn't he care for what I feel for him!"
"Why won't he understand! I did everything for him!"
"So why can't he ever love me!"
"I'm the best in all my classes ever since, I'm the best in singing, in dancing, in fashion! In everything! I'm the best in everything! So why can't he ever love me!"
I cried some more. Flay hushed me, but Kira suddenly stood up and slapped me har on the face.
I looked up at him, he wore an angry face.
"Stop being so self-centered!" Kira shouted "It's not always about you!"
"You aren't the best at everything, okay! Sure, you're good in school, in singing, in dancing, in fashion and all the damn other, but you aren't the best!"
"Kira!" Flay tried to stop him, but he didn't listen.
I stood up and yelled "You don't even know what the hell I'm going through!" I cried as I yelled.
"I just want—"
"You're being such a spoiled brat!" Kira yelled at me.
"You don't get it o you? He doesn't love you! All those times you've spent with him and all those shit nothings he whispers on your damn ear are all bullshit!"
I slapped him on the cheek, I was mad, no one had ever insulted me like that ever before.
"He doesn't love you because you're like this, he no longer did even see you as someone to love ever since before!"
"Shut-up!" I yelled back.
Covering my ears with both my hands and shaking my head, closing my eyes as more tears fell from my eyes.
"You can't o anything now! And even if you try to change, you'll never get his love or anyone else's love! But friendship is all he can give you! If you stop being self-centered, if you stop being a fucking spoiled shit god damn bitch!"
With that, he turned away and Flay followed him, holding his arm.
