'I want to wring his neck!!' Cagalli's mind fumed as she stomped to her office.
It had been a while since she Cagalli Yulah Attha got out from her boss's office and boy was she ready to pop his head of. She was to go to the New Manhattan Launch of Jewelry by the Zala-Gem Empire, with Yuuna Roma Sieran she knew he had much something else in store. 'Pathetic' she thought he's just doing that because he's aiming for 1 thing and that's getting her to bed. 'Argh!!' she thought 'Never mind I'll just approach the board myself, even though I know that Sir Leonard has his own melodramatic Victorian era inside him.'(you know the kind that doesn't like girls to be head of anything)
"Cagalli!" Miriallia said as she entered Cagalli's office
"What?" Cagalli asked rather spaced because she just snapped out of her 'inner thoughts'
"Yunna's on the phone"
"Err... Yeah… I'll take that at the reception" She said as she closed her suit case and went by Mir "Bye, I'm taking an early leave for the ball, see you tomorrow" She said and waved good bye to her friend.
"Bye Cags!! Good luck they say big man Zala's going to be there and your phone call" she reminded with a smile.
"Yeah… that I'll get to that right away!" she replied and walked faster to the reception.
"Hello?" a male voice that sent Cagalli's back hair standing purred through the line.
"What is it Yuuna?" Cagalli held back the urge to spout out bad words from her mouth.
"So… What time will I be picking you up?" he drawled
"No thanks Yunna, I'll take the cab I'll meet you there, 6:30 right?" she asked
"Okay but don't miss it" he replied as Cagalli heard him lick his lips and felt her knuckles grow white
"Good bye" and she closed the receiver and didn't even let Yuuna finish mocking her and went straight out of the door.
0+0+0+0+0+0+0+0+0+0+0+0+0+0+0+0+0+0+0+0+0+0+0+0+0+0+0+0+0+0+0+0+0+0
Anger transformed itself into fueled adrenaline. She was near her apartment within 10 minutes usually it took her about 20 minutes: advantage she was tall for a woman and very slender (okay Cagalli's a bit taller than her GS or GSD height and her hair is way way longer). Disadvantages: she wears her usual linen suit and the skirt is a bit narrow (and in this fanfic she doesn't mind wearing skirts and dresses).
Her spiky stilettos jabbed the cement hard as she made her way stomping to her apartment block. 'I can't believe this?!! I'm just this close to my goal and this self-centered bastard comes and offers me promotion in turn of warming his bed!!!' finally when she was on her apartment block, the anger somehow disappeared.
"Hi Cagalli!" Murrue hollered as she poked her head out of the coffee shop she was working in.
"Hi Murrue!" Cagalli hollered back fondly. She was always fond of Murrue she was like an older sister to her and she still remembered that they met there at AA Cofi (Archangel Coffee House) when she surrenders to her weakness of a pleasant Sunday breakfast which was composed of 4 pieces of croissants with 5 tablespoons of Greek honey and brood coffee with extra cream and a little cooled down. Yeah… every Sunday she goes there to chat with Murrue and sometimes with Mwu the owner and the husband of Murrue.
She pressed the summon button of the elevator. 'Ding' and revealed Athrun. He's probably from the gym in the basement, is she wasn't immune to men and relationships she might have gone loco a long time ago, I mean seeing this very handsome guy with fitting shirt and shorts…
"Hi Athrun" She said casually as she entered the elevator.
"Hi lovely" he said back
'Squash definitely squash; she thought to herself. She met Athrun in the pool a few months ago and they were the only occupants left and started talking and got some coffee together they also had have coffee a couple of times. He's occupying the Zala-Gem penthouse she assumed I mean c'mon a family as rich as the Zala's could well afford a black sheep ne? No, wrong they could well afford ten black sheep and have enough cash to buy the hope diamond and the pearl of Allah to be put into one necklace, ha!
"Would you want some coffee lovely? He asked with his gorgeous English accent
"love to Aths but not now I've got to much on right now" she answered looking at him and smiled lightly "love to chat longer but I really have to go, bye see you later" she waved past him and went to her apartment.

Cagalli slammed the taxi door and went through the main doors of the hotel, a bellboy greeted her and bowed his a bit and she smiled back. She walked toward the elevators and pressed the summon button waited fir the elevator and 'ding' she went in she studied herself in the mirrors of the elevator. She was wearing a dainty inky violet Liz Claiborne cocktail dress with heavy beadings on the hem line. She wore a pair of the loveliest chandelier earrings which were made out of amethyst and a matching teardrop necklace. She put on silver eye shadow which made her golden orbs more sparkly she wore on light foundation and a tinge of coral red lipstick just to make he lips pop. And her hair was don in a neat chignon the only thing holding it was a pair of violet pins with rhinestones that sparkle every time she moves. A silver clutch bag with a pair of silver and violet sling-backs which were like what 3, 4 inches?
Cagalli saw the familiar purple haired head standing out of the crowd, and twitched as he called her.
"Calla darling, I thought you wouldn't come, you know that I sweat blood just for me to get these invites?" he asked with a silky tone
"no, sorry" she answered back dismissively and looked around and say Athrun. Athrun, she thought as a smile ran over her face.
"Wait here Yunna. I'll introduce you to someone." Cagalli stated and began to walk away
'Please oh please walk away from the crowed' she whispered slightly to herself. 'Yes!! Thank you!!' she thought as she looked up and went straight to her target
"Athrun" She breathed
"Cagalli what a pleasant surprise! Should I take it you followed me here?" Athrun asked jokingly
"Athrun would you please do me a big, big favor?" she held her breath
"Sure pumpkin name it and it shall be" Athrun smiled at her
"Well…. Err… can you pretend to be my fiancé just while I introduce you to my boss back there? Please Athrun!!" She pleaded
