Chapter 1 a perfect couple

(Athrun's POV)

"Hey Lacus," I said, greeting her with a kiss on her cheek.

"Hello Athrun, it's really nice to see you again!" Lacus yelled back at me, whilst walking towards Haro.

"Hey, did you hear that Kira invited us both for a walk in the park? He said that he'd try to convince Cagalli to come as well! What do you think? It'll be fun!" Lacus explained.

"Well then, I think that it's going to be a perfect day!" I replied while grabbing my sweater.

I heard the doorbell ring and walked towards the large oak front door. When I pulled it open, I came to find that I was face to face with Kira, Cagalli, standing slightly behind him, her face pointed down towards the floor. She was wearing a casual green dress, with the sleeves flowing perfectly off the shoulders and her honey blonde hair was tied back, instead of loose, and dangling around her face as she always had it.

"Is there something wrong, Cagalli?" I asked curiously.

"I hate wearing dresses!" she mumbled quietly, glaring angrily at Kira.

"Believe me, it wasn't an easy thing to do. I had to hire professionals to help me!" He replied with a slight smirk on his face.

"Shall we go then?" Lacus asked, coming to stand behind me, a wicker picnic basket gripped in her petite hands.

(Cagalli POV)

"I guess so….." I said with a friendly smile at Lacus.

Athrun, who was standing in front of Lacus, held a hand out for her. Lacus stared at it, slightly shocked at his actions. However, after a few moments, she accepted his offer and as she placed her hand within his, Athrun closed his around hers, molding both of their hands together.

"I love you!" Athrun whispered gently in her ear. However, it was loud enough for me to hear it, and I think that Kira did to because when I glanced up at him, his face showed that he was somewhat uncomfortable with the situation. Why he was uncomfortable, I guess I'll never know.

Athrun smiled at Lacus, and she smiled back at him lovingly. I felt something stir within my, I couldn't quite identify the emotion that I was dealing with, but it wasn't good. And let me tell you one thing… I certainly didn't like it… no, not one bit.

"There something wrong?" Kira asked, leaning in to whisper quietly in my ear so that the other two wouldn't hear. Not that they would notice anyway, no, they were too busy making googly eyes at each other… pfft… love.

"Wha-" I started, but was cut off by an annoying taunt from Kira.

"You're jealous aren't you?" He teased, "'cause you're in love with Athrun... You love Athrun Zala…"

"Cut it out, would you?" I whispered back furiously, as we were walking down the street. My eyes never faltering from Athrun's muscular back. "No I'm not, and if u know what's good for you, you will shut up!"

Before I had noticed, we were at the park. I glanced around curiously. It had been a long time since I had been here; it brought back so many childhood memories.

Kira, walked over to the swings, closely followed by Lacus, who had swiftly let go of Athrun's hand as soon as Kira had walked away, while I sat down on the bench alone.

"May I sit...?" Athrun asked, his voice was soft and gentle.

"If you really want to," I replied, staring at him and moving slightly in the opposite direction.

"You know what Cagalli?" he asked while staring at me and smiling.

"What…?" I replied.

"Well. I have never met a girl quite like you before. It's rather strange," he said

"What do you mean by that?" I asked, rather bitterly, giving him an evil glare.

"I meant that in a good way." He said grinning slightly and making me blush, hopefully not noticeably.

"Hey, you're cute when you blush like that," he added with an honest smile. Damn… he had noticed. This caused me to blush even darker. I was about to reply when a brown haired guy walked up to us and smiled.

"Hello," I greeted kindly, unsure of what to say.

"Is it you? The unknown man questioned. I stared at him, perplexed. "It is you!" he yelled out, quickly, making me jump slightly.

Both Athrun and I raised a curious eyebrow.

"Allow me to introduce myself, my name is Alfmed" The strange man started, "it is a pleasure to see, my princess. I have longed for this day to see you once again. In addition, it is a relief to find that you are in a good condition!"

"What is he-" Athrun started, but I hastily interrupted.

"Hey, I told you not to call me that, especially since we are not in our home grounds!" I cried angrily in a hurried and frantic whisper.

"Please do forgive me my prin- Cagalli, I mean, it was in the moment," he explained.

"Well watch your mouth next time!" I warned him.

"You mean to tell me you're a princess?" Athrun asked, disrupting our conversation, "And you never told us?"

"Only Kira knew." I explained, "I thought that you guys would treat me diff-" once again, the conversation was cut short.

"HEY I WOULD WATCH YOUR MOUTH NEXT TIME YOU TALK TO THE PRINCESS OF ORB LIKE THAT!" Alfmed shouted angrily at Athrun. I made a mental note to warn my people to stop being so over-protective.

"What? You're the-"Athrun started, now whispering crazily.

My eyes darted hastily over to the swings, where Kira and Lacus sat, deep in conversation.

"Yes I'm the daughter of Lord Azumi Nara Atha," I told him, hesitantly, "but please don't tell anyone!" I added, pleadingly

"Its okay I won't. You're secret is safe with me!" he explained, "Don't worry about it!"

"Good…"I said

"Miss…Miss Cagalli? …there is something important that I wanted to tell you…" The dark brown haired man said.

"Huh?" I asked in confusion, suddenly nervous of what was to be said next.
