Chapter 1: A Child's Wish
xXxXxXxXxXx
Young Lelouch Vi Britannia better known as Lelouch Lamperouge to the people of Japan sat with young Kallen Stadtfelt and Suzaku Kururgi.
"Hey Suzaku, Kallen lets sneak out."
"You can't be serious Lelouch." Kallen responds to Lelouch's absurd proposition.
"Then you can stay here," Lelouch tells Kallen cheekily. "You in Suzaku?"
"Sure Lelouch."
"I knew I can count on my best friend to come with me." Lelouch says as he and Suzaku start walking away from the table.
Kallen stayed sitting at the table fidgeting nervously from being alone. "W-wait Lelouch, Suzaku." Kallen gets up and runs to catch up to her two friends.
"Ah what's wrong Lady Stadtfelt? I thought you didn't want to come with us." Lelouch says in a teasing manner to Kallen.
Kallen glares at Lelouch for teasing her. "There's no way I was going to stay there alone."
"It's ok if you really want to come with us Kallen. I'm glad that you're joining us." Suzaku tells Kallen with a smile.
She smiles back at Suzaku. "Thank you Suzaku you're so sweet."
It was Lelouch's turn to glare, but at the pair who were currently smiling at one another.
"Let's just go ok." Lelouch says frowning.
The three kids walked sneakily out of the manor attempting to avoid any adult gazes. Outside they were greeted by the Kururgi's household's beautiful garden.
"I just love coming out here." A grinning Kallen says.
"See it was a good idea to come out here." Suzaku responds.
"Yeah." Both Kallen and Suzaku are still smiling at one another.
Lelouch's frown deepens. What are those two so happy about? It was my idea to come out here in the first place. He passes by the two without saying a word still frowning. His two friends confused by his weird behavior follow him.
"Lelouch is something the matter?" Suzaku asks his best friend.
"It's nothing." Lelouch responds coldly without turning around to his two close friends.
Kallen looks down at her feet. "Is it because you really didn't want me to come with you two, Lelouch?"
"N-no Kallen, I'm glad you came!" Lelouch says rather quickly then turning around to face Kallen.
Kallen beamed at his response and gave Lelouch a smile.
"Thank you Lelouch."
Lelouch was glad that she was smiling at him now and not at Suzaku. He then smiles back at her.
"Let's go to the usual place." Lelouch tells Suzaku and Kallen.
Both nod their heads at him; both happy to see their friend back to his normal self. They walked to a grassy area with rose bushes in the background. The three lay on the grass in silence staring at the clear blue sky.
Ugh what's wrong with me? Why did I feel so annoyed to see Kallen smiling at Suzaku like that? If I keep thinking like this I'll go crazy.
"Hey Lelouch, Suzaku do you think do you think we can stay how we are forever?" Kallen asks interrupting Lelouch's thoughts.
"Hmm, what do you mean Kallen?" Asks Suzaku.
"I mean Lelouch or I might have to return to the homeland one day. But I don't want that. I want the three of us to stay together always."
"Is that what you wish for Kallen?" Lelouch asks her as he stands up.
Kallen and Suzaku sit up to get a better view of Lelouch.
"Y-yes." Kallen answers Lelouch's question.
"Then I Lelouch Vi Britannia will grant you that wish. That you Suzaku and I will always stay together." He says smiling at his friends. He sticks both his hands out to help his two closest friends get up. "And I bet that's what Suzaku wants that too right."
Both Kallen and Suzaku moved by Lelouch's words reached for his hands. But as Lelouch attempts to help his two friends up his own strength or lack of strength causes him to fall on his butt.
Kallen and Suzaku busted into fits of laughter at their fallen friend.
There goes my 5 minutes of being cool. Thought Lelouch.
Lelouch looks up to see two hands offering to help him up. He sees Suzaku and Kallen grinning down on him.
"Well I'll keep it to you that you will grant me my wish Lelouch."
"And I'll do anything to help you out."
Lelouch smiles at his two closest friends in the world and grabs both their hands.
That's right make sure the three of us stick together. Lelouch was so happy that his eyes began tearing up.
"Hey Lelouch are you crying?"
