Disclaimer: Story Plot belongs to the movie: The Philadelphia Story. ( 1940 starring Katharine Hepburn ) and the Characters belong to the people that broke up Athrun and Cagalli.
With his foot, he opened the door and with a good look Athrun Zala put down his luggage and slammed the door close. Walking over to his door, he saw the door open again with a light step his wife. Well ex-wife as of ten seconds ago walking out as if she was a goddess she held on to his tools and papers.
Stopping in front of him with a smirk she held out his beloved tools and bag of important papers out to him. Thinking kindly of her, Athrun about to place out his arm to take the items of great importance to him. But unknown to him she dropped the items between his arms and it was smashed as it hit the ground.
Not saying anything Athrun looked on as Cagalli took a roll of paper and tossed the rest of the bag onto the ground next to the piece of paper and with a cold smirk she ripped in half and tossed the pieces into the ground next to the distressed tools and bag. Turning around with grace and pose she walked back to the door.
Athrun filled with anger, dropped his bags and follows her taking her arm before she could walk away. Turning Cagalli looked at Athrun with a questioning look but felt great relief what she did. Athrun frowned even more as he saw the smile she had on her face.
Making a fist with his left hand, as he's right hand was still tightly around Cagalli's arm. Athrun raised his fist, about to punch her out. But he put it down in a sigh and with his palm pushed her face. Her body hitting the ground, frowning she watched Athrun put his bags into the car and drive away.
Two years later Athrun lazily picked up the newspaper that was sitting on his coffee table and read it:
Orb awaits its new prince: Cagalli Yula Athha Zala, representative of Orb and former wife of Athrun Zala the most known solder for the peace keeping duties; is to be wed this Saturday to Mr. Yuuna Roma Seiran one of the representatives of Orb.
Giving a light frown, Athrun got out of his chair and went to get dressed.
"Cagalli! Where are you?" Kira Yamato yelled loudly as he walked around the mansion looking for Cagalli. Smiling he saw Lacus and Cagalli sitting down looking at all the gifts from everyone. Sliver plates and Crystal laid everywhere. Taking a hold of a box he opened it and saw a necklace that was bigger then his neck.
"How can anyone wear anything like this?" Kira looked at it as he placed it on his neck feeling the weight of it bringing down his back. Cagalli sighed looking at the list of names and didn't pay any attention to Kira. Lacus smiled walking over she unclipped the necklace and place it back into the box. Kira smiled and gave his wife a light kiss on the cheek, as he gave her large stomach a pat at the same time.
"That necklace cost more then everything your wearing Kira, I have to wear it someday so please put that down before you break it." Cagalli said disgusted at the necklace and felt like breaking it herself but the neighboring country gave it to her as a gift for her wedding. Knowing that it would be bad if she didn't wear it when visiting them wouldn't make them happy.
"How can you be so calm when you have to marry that idiot? Seiran?" Kira walked over to Cagalli. Thinking of how much shame he would have to live in if Cagalli was really going to marry Yuuna.
"Oh hush, Kira. I love Yuuna. He's everything my first husband wasn't." Cagalli said looking away, trying hard not to think about the blue haired coordinator and more about her soon to be husband. Sicken by the fact that his best friend and he's own sister divorced hurt him a lot.
"I still like Athrun more." Kira hissed at Cagalli.
"Then go marry him, Kira if you like Zala so much." Cagalli said madly. Lacus laughed and tried to make things more light hearted.
"Please, Cagalli don't give him ideas."
"Well its not like he really punched you out, like all the newspapers wrote. How bad that was for Athrun. Saying that he was a drunk and punched his wife! Athrun would do nothing like that. Took me months to get the rumors out. I mean he only pushed you that's all. Your stronger then that Cagalli! I mean you did almost shoot him when you two first met." Kira said trying to give Athrun a lighter heart. Knowing what half he said was a semi lie.
"Yes, Athrun was a good man." Lacus said with a smile looking at the haro fly pass her feet and into the garden.
"Lets stop talking about him okay? Where is Yuuna? He is never late." Cagalli said trying hard to change the topic.
"Oh he said he will meet you there." Kira said with a smirk before he ran off to his room to change.
"Kira!" Cagalli gave an annoyed scream. Before running to her room to change, leaving Lacus to just sit down and start looking over the list of people to write thank you cards too.
Wow this has to be the longest chapter I have wrote in a long time. Funny story to this. I was watching The Philadelphia Story at around 2:00am and when it was over around 2:40am I covered my eyes and went to sleep. Then PING! The idea to write this out as a Athrun and Cagalli story. It's a lovely movie. Starring Katharine Hepburn, Cary Grant and James Stewart. 1490, black and white. But it is a very good movie. I changed the plot around so the movie and this story isn't the same but it is at the same time. I mean like in the movie the father has an affair with a dancer but Cagalli's father is dead so I had to change it.
Thanks for reading
