The sight of all the looks of disgust and all the sneering towards her had become a common and everyday event for Lacus Clyne
Kira groaned as he opened his eyes. It took him a moment of looking around the familiar room before he realized that he was still in Lacus's room. 'Oh yeah, I came to watch a movie last night,' he thought as he looked over at the clock and saw that it was only six in the morning.
Kira closed his eyes figuring that he could get a few more minutes of sleep but found that he was already too awake and gave up. 'I might as well just get ready so that the two of us won't be late,' he thought taking another look at the clock before he slowly separated himself from the still sleeping Lacus.
He then made his way over to her drawers. He pulled out a set of clothes to wear for the day. For the most part the two of them always stayed at one house or the other so they figured that it would be a good idea to keep a few spare clothes at the other's place for times like these.
Taking one quick look at the sleeping Lacus, Kira smiled as he headed towards the bathroom to take a quick shower before she woke up and needed to take one herself. He then turned on the water and undressed before he got into the shower.
The warm water hit Kira's body which relaxed him. 'I wonder why it is that Lacus and I have no problem with these kinds of things. Usually it is couples that are like this and yet we aren't like that,' he thought even though it was a thought that he had many times before.
'The two of us first met when we were in kindergarten. It was because our fathers were close friends and business partners. It was expected of us but we grew to be the best of friends really quickly. Our friendship has always been like that of a brother and sister, right?' he asked himself before shaking his head afraid that he would start having weird thoughts.
Kira and Lacus had been friends for thirteen years and yet Kira had never really given it much thought as to how deep their friendship really was. Everything they did with one another always felt so natural to them.
'This is ridiculous. Lacus is my best friend. That is all that we will ever be,' he thought as he turned off the water and stepped out of the shower. 'Who cares what Athrun and Cagalli say about us? We're happy just being friends. We don't need anything else,' he thought with a smile.
Meanwhile, Lacus's eyes slowly started to open. "Huh?" she murmured noticing that Kira wasn't next to her. "He must've gotten up already," she thought looking at the clock and saw that it was already six thirty. "Guess I better get up," she murmured even though she really wished that she could sleep in that day and not have to worry about going to school.
Dragging herself out of bed, Lacus walked over to her dresser and pulled out a fresh pair of clothes for the day. She then dragged herself out of the room and headed towards the bathroom figuring a nice long shower was what she needed in order to wake up for the day.
The door to the bathroom wasn't completely closed so Lacus just opened it up and walked in. As soon as she took the first step though she froze completely in her tracks. Her jaw fell open and her eyes widened at the sight before her.
There Kira stood. There was only a towel in his hand and nothing on his body. He was as naked as the day he was born, exposing every bit of himself to the eyes of the woman who had just walked into the room. All that Kira could do was just stare at Lacus in shock at the fact that she was just standing there and staring at him.
Lacus's face flared up a deep shade of red. 'Oh my God!' she mentally screamed yet for some reason couldn't turn her face or eyes away from the sight. 'Just turn around and leave,' Lacus thought to herself but found herself still unable to move.
"L-Lacus!" Kira yelped in surprise as if he had just realized that she was there even though it had been a long few moments for the both of them. He then quickly took the towel and wrapped it around his waist blocking off sight of his lower regions.
"Oh god! I'm so sorry!" Lacus screamed in embarrassment as she was finally able to turn around. She then ran out of the bathroom in complete embarrassment that she had been staring at the naked figure of her best friend like that.
Lacus hid out of sight of the bathroom waiting for Kira to get out. She just didn't think she could face him right then when she still couldn't stop feeling embarrassed at the memory of the event.
'H-he sure has grown,' she couldn't help but think as her face flared again. 'I mean we did used to take baths together and all that but we were just really young and didn't think about it,' she thought feeling her face grow more heated. 'He's definitely grown up though. His scrawny body from back then has filled out nicely with some muscles and his…' she thought before feeling her face seem to explode with stream from how heated it had become. She was wondering how she hadn't passed out from all of it yet.
Hearing the sound of the bathroom door opening, Lacus waited a minute before she rushed into the bathroom but this time making sure no one was in it. She then slammed the door shut and took a nice long cold shower to try and cool herself down as much as possible.
Kira meanwhile walked into the kitchen being as embarrassed as Lacus was. It was just so embarrassing how she had seen him so naked. It embarrassed him even more when he remembered how intently she had been staring at him. 'What was that look in her eye?' he asked himself before shaking his head to get rid of those thoughts.
'Lacus probably needs time to cool off as well. I should probably leave before she gets out of the shower,' he thought before shaking off the sudden thoughts he was starting to have about what she would look like nude.
Grabbing his backpack, which he'd brought with him the previous night, Kira made his way out of the door in a hurry especially after he heard the sound of the water being shut off. He knew that he was just prolonging the weird awkwardness that was bound to come but he didn't feel like dealing with it right then.
Kira was in such a hurry to leave that he didn't realize that a certain someone had been waiting outside of the house for Lacus to show up. "What the hell are you doing here Yamato?!" Eric growled out as he stepped out in front of the violet eyed man.
'Oh crap! I forgot to make sure that no one was there,' he thought in a panic though he tried to keep his cool. "What do you care?" Kira said putting on a confident look even though he was afraid that Eric might actually realize about his relationship with Lacus.
"I don't care. Just wondering why the great Kira Yamato was coming out of the house of a slut like Lacus Clyne," he said in a serious mocking tone. "Man, I can't help but wonder what the rest of the school would think if they heard about this. You sure have no class," Eric said with a smirk even though he was seething inside. He didn't want anyone getting close to his Lacus before he finally took what he wanted from her.
"Not that it matters to you but I had business with her father since he's a business partner of my father's. Figured that I would leave early to talk to him before school. Didn't realize that he was out of town though," Kira said with a shrug of his shoulders. "Why are you here? I thought you already had your fun with her. Isn't that how this whole thing started?" Kira questioned with a smirk even though he knew the truth. He really just wanted to see if the guy would spill or not. He was betting on the ladder though.
Eric growled knowing that Kira was just taunting him. Sometimes he wondered if Kira knew anything or not. His sister was Lacus's friend so he might've overheard something. He'd shown great dislike for her in school though so he might just be that he didn't care. At least that was what Eric hoped.
"Whatever, I have no interest in Clyne. She's nothing but a slut. I could do way better than that. I mean I have pretty much the whole school wanting to be with me. Why would I want used goods?" he questioned back with a smirk.
"That doesn't answer my question though. I have an excuse. I just can't help but wonder what your excuse is for waiting in front of the Clyne place this early in the morning," Kira said with a provoking glance at the other man.
"None of your business. I was just driving by!" he growled as he turned away and got into his car before driving off at full speed. All the way he was doing nothing but cursing Kira for ruining his opportunity.
Once Eric was finally gone, Kira breathed a sigh of relief knowing that he just barely managed to scrap himself out of the mess that he so recklessly got himself into. "That was too close," he thought making a mental note to be more careful the next time. His embarrassment had made him not think as clearly as he usually did and made him do something that could've hurt Lacus later. Then before anyone else could see him, Kira took off towards the school.
Cagalli burst out in laughter because of what Lacus told her about what happened earlier that day. "Oh my god! That's just too freaking hilarious! It's even funnier since all that you could do was stare!" she said trying and failing miserably to hold back the laughter that was erupting from her.
"Come on Cagalli, it's not really all that funny. It was way too embarrassing though," Lacus said with a blush already regretting that she had told Cagalli about what happened between her and Kira earlier that day. "I don't know how to talk to him after that," she said sadly since she got too embarrassed every time that she tried to secretly talk to Kira throughout the day.
"I have an idea, why don't you show him your body. That will make the two of you even," Cagalli responded with a chuckle while they walked down the street towards her place after school had ended for the day.
"NO!" Lacus yelled crossing her arms in front of her in an x pattern. "That would be even more embarrassing than what happened earlier. I mean I don't exactly have that great a body to look at anyways," she said modestly.
"Oh don't be ridiculous. You have a great body. You need to give yourself more credit," Cagalli said with a grin making Lacus blush. "I'm definitely sure that Kira would probably agree with me as well," she said going back to her teasing about Kira and Lacus's relationship.
"Oh stop it Cagalli! We aren't anything like that!" Lacus screamed in response hating how Cagalli wouldn't drop the subject. "We're the best of friends and that's it!" she yelled out hoping that Cagalli would drop the subject.
"Of course we are," Kira's voice came from slightly ahead of the two of them. He then stepped out from his hiding spot behind the tree and smiled at his sister and best friend. "You alright Lacus?" Kira questioned seeing how she suddenly blushed and turned away. He knew it was about what happened earlier though.
"Of course she isn't," Cagalli interjected playfully glaring at her brother. "She's traumatized by having to look at your teeny winky earlier. How could you show something like that to such an impressionable young lady such as Lacus?!" she playfully chastised.
'He definitely isn't small,' Lacus found herself thinking as she remembered back to that morning. 'What the hell am I thinking?! I can't believe that I'm thinking about Kira that way!' she mentally screamed before taking a deep breath to calm herself before turning back around. "I'm fine Kira. So don't worry about earlier today. It was an accident and I'm sorry about that," she said giving him a comforting smile.
"No need to apologize Lacus. It was my fault for not properly closing and locking the door," Kira said since this whole situation could've been avoided if he didn't so carelessly leave the door to the bathroom open like that.
"No, no. It's my fault. I should've knocked before I came barging in like that even if the door was open," Lacus retorted in what Cagalli was beginning to see as a battle over who was the most sorry between the two of them.
"Alright! You're both sorry! I get it! Now why don't you stop arguing over who's the most sorry and just kiss and make up!" she yelled getting tired very quickly at what was going on between the two of them.
Both Kira and Lacus stopped their small argument when Cagalli spoke up. "Sorry," the two of them said in unison before they broke chuckled at saying the same thing at the same time.
Cagalli rolled their eyes with how in sync they were with one another. "Anyways!" she interrupted once again, "There's a party tonight, let's all go to it," she suggested with a grin. If there was one thing she loved, it was to be able to party.
"You know I'm good with those things. Plus I don't think that there would be anyone there that would be happy to have me there," Lacus stated with a sigh. She didn't particularly like partying but Cagalli would probably find a way to drag her there anyways.
"She's right Cagalli. It's best to keep Lacus away from places like that. There are many people would probably try to take advantage of her being there anyways," Kira said seriously as he glared at his sister for making such a suggestion.
"There's nothing to worry about. I'd be there with her anyways. Besides, if you go then there no chance of anything happening to Lacus," Cagalli responded looking towards her brother with a look like it was the most obvious thing to say.
"Cagalli," Kira said in a dangerous voice since he didn't want Lacus going anywhere near a party with the assholes at their school. "She's not going and that's final. Now I need to go. There's something that I need to do," Kira said with a tone of finality as he made a different turn then the other two and took off.
"Well there you have it Cagalli. A party is obviously not something I really should be going to," Lacus continued from where Kira left off with a smile. This however dropped when she saw the grin that was on Cagalli's face. 'Somehow my bad feelings always seem to come true,' she thought with a grimace.
"Oh don't worry about what Kira said. A little fun will do you good. Besides, the reason people get a bad opinion of you is because no one knows you. You need to get out and talk to people. I'm doing this for your own good. I'll be right there beside you so don't worry so much," Cagalli said with a grin as plans were forming in her head.
Lacus was really getting a bad feeling but couldn't get a word in to object to Cagalli's persistence. Even as she was being pulled to Cagalli's house to get ready she couldn't help but wonder how much more damage this was going to do.
Although Cagalli hated how she was dragging Lacus to this party against her will. She thought it would all be worth it. She wanted people to start seeing the real Lacus, not the one painted out by all the rumors. She hoped that if people saw what Lacus was really like that they would finally stop harassing her.
"This is for the best Lacus so please stop giving me those looks," Cagalli about the glare that Lacus had been giving her. "Athrun's going to be there as well so you don't have to worry about being taken advantage of," she continued since Athrun also thought that maybe getting Lacus out there would help her situation.
"I still don't like going to parties. Knowing my luck he's probably there just waiting for me to show up to try and get me," Lacus responded as Cagalli played dress up with her. The mere thought of being in that position sent shivers down her spine.
"That's why Athrun will be there. It's to keep that guy as far away from you as possible. We both want to try and improve your life. That's the whole reason we're doing this," Cagalli said right back at Lacus with a smile.
"I still don't like it!" Lacus vented out her frustration at being forced to go like this. She knew Cagalli had her best interest at heart but it was still frustrating that she wasn't being given a say in all this.
"I'm telling you not to worry though," Cagalli said cheerfully while holding up an outfit for Lacus to wear. "Things are going to be fine," she said giving a comforting look as Lacus reluctantly got into the outfit that she put out for her.
The atmosphere that Lacus witnessed upon entering the party was a bit unnerving to her. She followed after Cagalli and Athrun who were talking happily with one another. Her eyes couldn't help but dart around to all the people.
Several had already noticed her presence and most of them weren't too happy to see her there. Many of the women were giving her cold glares while watching her carefully and pulling their boyfriends close. They were obviously afraid that Lacus was only here to try to get someone new.
"Look at her, walking in here like she owns the place," one of the girls said to a friend in a not so quiet voice that Lacus was able to hear. "Better be careful or she'll just go after our boyfriends," she continued to say while giving Lacus a menacing glare.
"I know what you mean. Just because her family is rich doesn't give her the right to do whatever the hell she wants. Someone needs to teach her a lesson," she said with a sinister look in her eye.
Her friend stopped her by putting a hand on her shoulder. "As much as she deserves it for going after our boyfriends, its best not to. She has that bitch Cagalli and Athrun protecting her. Honestly, why would a guy as popular as him want to be friends with the likes of her? Maybe he's just getting some to do that for her," she said angrily.
Lacus did her best to cut off the conversation. She tried not to show it but it really did hurt to hear stuff like that being said about her in person. 'Why is it that things just keep getting worse no matter what I do?' she asked herself mentally.
Athrun placed a hand on Lacus's shoulder, "Don't worry about it Lacus. We're going to do what we can to put to rest these rumors," he said to her unspoken words. He was worried for Lacus though. He didn't want her to be here at all yet it was the best place for her to try and socialize. 'I'm awful for doing this,' he thought knowing that Cagalli felt the same. 'We just have to make sure that no one touches her though,' he thought looking around to see who was there.
Lacus sighed as she walked towards a couch on the far side of the room with Athrun and Cagalli following her. "I know the two of you just want to help but I just don't think that this is going to work," she said as she sat down.
"Give it time… hopefully," Cagalli said hesitantly as she looked around the room for anyone that might be able to help. "I just can't stand things staying the way they are. You deserve so much better than that," she said sadly while looking at the floor.
Athrun noticed a friend in the room and stood up. "Be right back. I need to talk to someone," he said feeling that Cagalli would be enough to look after Lacus for a few minutes. He walked over to the person and started up a quick conversation with the person since they were holding the party. He was a decent guy from Athrun's experiences with him and hoped he could manage to keep things civil with Lacus around.
Kira growled out loud as he rushed out of his house as fast as he could. "What the hell were they thinking when I told them not to?!" he screamed as he rushed to his parents car so that he could get to the party quickly.
"I told them not to. They know what people think of Lacus. I can't believe this!" he growled while starting the car. He immediately took off planning to a put a stop to what they did before it could have some bad side effects for Lacus. "I just hope he's not there or that will just cause more problems," he said growing more worried since he knew Eric loved to go to parties as well.
"Yo Eric," one of Eric's friends said pulling himself away from the girl he was making out with. When he saw Eric looking at him he continued, "Take a look whose here," he said pointing in a certain direction.
Eric took a sip of his beer and turned in the direction that his friend was pointing to see what his friend was talking about. A smirk crossed his face when he saw Lacus through a doorway from a different room in his house. It was only because of where he was sitting that he was even able to see her.
"What great fortune I have tonight. Who would've guessed that she would turn up here? I actually didn't take her for a partier," he said with a laugh as he took another sip of his beer before he stood up. "I guess I will just have to end the dancing around she's been doing with me," he said since his friends were helping him out with his plan to get Lacus since he promised them that they could have her after him.
"How do you expect to get close to her? That guard dog of hers won't let you get anywhere close to her. Plus Lacus still seems to be sober," his friend responded while looking at Cagalli who was chatting it up with Lacus.
"The guard dog problem has already been solved," Eric said as he turned his eyes elsewhere. He saw Fllay and her posse approaching Lacus. "She's definitely enough to keep the bitch away from my Lacus. I will make my move then," he said with a grin as he kept watching.
'I'm getting thirsty. What is there besides beer around here?' Lacus asked herself looking around. She then cringed when she saw Fllay approaching the two of them with a grin that obviously said she was gonna be a bitch and give them a hard time.
"Well what do we have here? Better look out everyone! Lacus Clyne is here! She's probably gonna be having an orgy later! Better get ready for it!" Fllay joyfully yelled out with a laugh.
Cagalli stood up and got right in Fllay's face. "This coming from the woman who's slept with pretty much everyone in the country," Cagalli retorted angrily. She glared at Fllay, just daring her to retort.
"I take great insult in that. I have never once been with anyone like that," she lied and Cagalli could see most of the men in the room turning away guiltily. "I just bet that you're as bad as her though. You two seem to do everything together," she said with a grin.
Cagalli got really mad and pounced at Fllay. "I swear to god that I'm going to tear all your hair out you lying whore!" she yelled punching Fllay since she was already getting very tired of her incessant bitching.
Lacus backed away knowing that there wasn't any way of stopping Cagalli. "Cagalli, please stop," she called out but the ferocious look in Cagalli's eyes scared her. "Athrun, do something," she pleaded to Athrun when he came running over.
Athrun immediately went about trying to break the two women up. Lacus continued to watch but found it getting harder and looked away. She immediately grabbed the first cup she could find and downed it hoping to get her mind off the fight until it was over. She really didn't like that they were fighting because of her.
She immediately knew what a mistake it was when she started to feel dizzy. Unfortunately for Lacus she had absolutely no tolerance for alcohol so it had the maximum effect on her. "Ugh, I feels funny," she slurred as she tried to head for a bathroom but stumbled a few times.
Lacus made her way through the halls freely since everyone was watching the fight taking place in the living room. However she couldn't see straight or clearly and ended up running into someone. "Sssorrry," she slurred drunkenly.
"It's quite alright. Let me get you out of here," Eric said in a kind voice so that she might not recognize it. He then grabbed her by the shoulders and started to head for a bedroom for something he felt was long overdue.
It took a lot longer than he expected but Athrun finally managed to get Cagalli off of Fllay who was a bloody mess on the floor. Even when he had her off, Cagalli kept lashing out at Fllay even though the other woman was already unconscious.
Athrun then looked for Lacus but saw that she wasn't there. "Cagalli! Lacus's gone!" Athrun yelled immediately snapping Cagalli out of her fury. "We have to find her!" he said as Kira came running into the room in a fury of his own.
"Where is she Athrun? I told you not to do anything," he said turning towards Cagalli. He saw People watching but he kept his voice low enough so that they wouldn't be able to hear over the music.
"We don't know. Cagalli got in a fight with Fllay because Fllay couldn't keep her mouth shut and Lacus just disappeared. I hope it's just that she left but that might not be good either at this time of night.," Athrun responded getting worried.
Kira growled in annoyance. He then just wondered off hoping to find it while leaving everyone else in the room completely baffled about what was going on between Athrun and Kira. Some just assumed that it was Kira playing protective brother to his sister after Athrun brought her there. No one even suspected that it was about Lacus.
Kira rushed towards the room area. He was going to stop anyone if they tried to take advantage of her. He threw open a door and there was a scream but Kira immediately recognized that it wasn't Lacus and slammed the door shut in utter embarrassment.
"No! Stop!" Kira heard a girl yell with a voice that he recognized immediately. "Oh no!" he said startled since he wasn't sure which room it was that it came from. He started going through every door.
It wasn't until the final door that he finally heard the same plea to stop again and knew he had it right. 'No one touches Lacus!' Kira thought with a growl as he threw the door open and saw what was happening.
A still clothed Lacus was struggling laying on her back on a bed in the room. Eric was hovering over her trying to get her to stay still while he had his way. He didn't seem to notice that Kira was in the room yet since he was staring at Lacus so intently.
"Get your filthy hands off of her!" Kira screamed punching Eric with all of his might sending the man flying into a wall hard. He then fell unconscious to the floor since he also hit his head pretty hard from the impact.
Kira took a deep breath to calm himself when he saw Eric out of it. He then turned towards Lacus. "Lacus! Are you ok?" he asked wrapping his arms around her worried about what kind of impact this would have on her.
"Kira?" Lacus slurred turning towards Kira still feeling the full force of the alcohol. "Oh Kira, my prince came to save me," she said drunkenly since it is something that she probably wouldn't normally say. She then grab onto Kira and held him tightly.
"Are you drunk?" Kira asked surprised with how she was acting. He saw her make a hand gesture of a little and sighed. "This isn't good. We need to get you out of here," he said wondering just how it was she got drunk. Kira knew that Lacus wasn't a person to drink alcohol like that.
"That's not necessary, I'm happy right here," she said giddily as she clutched onto him tighter. "I'll be fine as long as you're here with me," she said giving him a bright drunken smile.
"Come on Lacus," Kira said as he tried to stand her up only for her to pull him back down forcing him to sit on the bed. She didn't seem to care that an unconscious Eric was in the room and could possibly wake up at any moment if they didn't get out of there quickly.
Lacus stared intently at Kira's face it was as if she was at for something she had never noticed before. "You know, you really are very handsome Kira," she said honestly words that she didn't want to before.
Lacus's words made Kira blush. "Don't say stuff like that Lacus. You're drunk. You don't know what you're talking about," Kira said as he tried to stand up again only to be pulled back down.
"No, I've always thought that," Lacus said with a small grin as she stared at him. "I didn't like him touching me but I don't think I'd mind it if you did," she said as she started to lean up towards the greatly startled Kira to try and kiss him.
Kira had no clue what to do as she was getting closer and closer. A part of him was telling him to pull away and put a stop to this. That they were best friends and that they shouldn't be doing that. Then there was another part of him that was screaming to let her. That it was something he actually wanted. He didn't know why though.
Lacus was only an inch away from his lips when she suddenly stopped and her head fell onto Kira's shoulder. "Lacus? Lacus?" Kira called out wondering why she stopped. He gently lifted her off of his shoulder and saw that she had fallen asleep. "I don't believe it," he grumbled feeling somewhat disappointed.
It was in that moment that Athrun and Cagalli came running into the room after having done a search of their own. "Oh thank god, you managed to find her," Athrun said breathing a sigh of relief since Cagalli had been looking elsewhere in the house and Athrun had gone out to see if she had left but neither had any luck finding her.
"Yeah and she was really drunk," Kira said glaring at the two he held responsible for the situation. "And he almost took advantage of her," he continued pointing to the unconscious lump in the corner of the room.
Cagalli looked over and growled at the sight of Eric. She stomped over to the unconscious body and gave his nuts a good kick hoping like hell he would be in great pain from it when he woke up.
"Hey now take it easy, not much good that does while he's unconscious," Athrun said even thought he was inwardly cheering for her to do much worse. "Sorry about this Kira. We just wanted to see if we can get people to know the real Lacus. So taking her to a gathering like this seemed the best way. We thought that we could protect her," he said with a sigh since their plan was an utter failure.
"I'll deal with the two of you later," Kira said darkly as Kira picked Lacus up in his arms. "Take her to my car. It's parked around the corner out of view. I don't need to give her any more trouble by letting people see us together," Kira said handing Lacus over to Athrun. "I'll take a different door out," he said and Athrun and Cagalli nodded their heads as they quietly headed out so that hopefully no one would notice.
It took Kira longer than he thought to get out. Everyone that he ran into always came up to him and started up a conversation. He tried to bring them to an end as quickly as possible without causing any suspicions but it took too long.
As he approached his car he saw Athrun and Cagalli waiting for him. He didn't say anything to them; he just got into the car and started it up before driving away while Lacus slept comfortably in the seat next to him.
Kira drove to his own house since Lacus's was still empty since her father still hadn't come back. When he parked the car he didn't bother to wake Lacus up, he just took her into his arms and carried her.
Caridad Yamato came walking out the front door with a frown. "Take her inside, Athrun's already informed me about what has happened. Good thing you got there when you did," she said and Kira merely nodded as he walked into the house.
Carrying Lacus into his room, he set her down on the bed and covered her up still fully clothed. "You're such a troublesome girl," he said with a light chuckle as he smoothed the bangs away from her face.
Kira's eyes fell upon Lacus's lips. He remembered earlier when Lacus had tried to kiss him and he blushed. He gulped a bit when he suddenly felt an urge to finish the job that had already failed earlier.
'What the hell am I thinking?! This is not something I should be thinking!' he mentally berated himself as he quickly got changed and got into bed next to Lacus. 'We're friends, friends, friends, best friends,' he repeated in his head to try to stop himself from having any more weird thoughts. 'Lacus was drunk, there's no way that she would have said those things otherwise,' he told himself to assure himself that it was really nothing.
It troubled Kira though. He didn't know why but he felt as if something had changed because of this weird night and Lacus's strange drunken actions. The little girl that he'd drown up with, the one who always clung to him as her protector, his best friend; he really started to see what a woman she had become. 'In some ways I don't want that. I want things to remain the same. That way we could always go on being friends forever,' he thought closing his eyes and falling asleep.
Caridad took a quick look in on her son and the woman she thought of like a second daughter. She smiled when she saw that they were peacefully sleeping before closing the door and walking away.
'I wonder how much longer it's going to take before they realize their true feelings. Even I can see that the two are madly in love but they seem to unconsciously be holding themselves back. They're both refusing to admit their feelings even to themselves,' she thought with a frown. She hoped that they would realize it soon because she felt that the two of them would be perfect together.
hope this puts a little light on Kira and Lacus's feelings. Lacus is an honest drunk even about stuff she won't admit to herself sober. lol. anyways, i hope you enjoyed and be sure to leave a review.
