Chapter 2: Treasured memories

The sun was down and lights were off throughout the city. Kira lay in bed unable to sleep, his mind once again focused on the events that took place this afternoon.

Should I tell her how I feel? But what if she doesn't like me at all?

Kira closed his eyes in frustration as his mind desperately tried to find a solution, a solution to a problem that had affected him for almost 2 years now….

Flashback

"Oh shoot, I am going to be late on my first day to school!" Kira yelled in frustration as he sped across the busied streets that threatened to slow his progress even further. However, things took a turn downhill as Kira was soon forced to a slow walking pace due to the amount of pedestrians.

"Um…excuse me? Do you know how to get to Archangel academy?"

Kira turned around almost instinctively towards where he heard the sweet voice. A beautiful pink haired girl stood before him with the most adorable smile.

"uh….no…I mean yes I do" stammered a flushed Kira as he slowly took in her features. Oh my goodness, who is this pink haired princess? She looks so beautiful.

"Are you sure?" the pink haired princess giggled at how shy the brunette appeared.

"Absolutely. After all I am heading over there myself you see." Kira replied with a bit more confidence while showing off the school blazer. Why am I so nervous? Just act normal!

"Oh yeh! I almost didn't notice. Since we are going to be fellow schoolmates now, why don't we properly introduce ourselves? I'm lacus Clyne." She said smiling and extended her hand

"I'm Kira Yamato." Kira replied with a smile as he took her hand.

End Flashback

Kira smiled happily at the memory of their first meeting. To him that day was the start of both his happiness and pain. Despite all his efforts, he could not bring himself to confess to her. He wished for a way, a way to know what she wanted and how she felt towards him. Kira gave another sigh and soon succumbed to his tiredness.

He got up the next morning and quickly took a nice quick shower. The steaming hot water always helped clear his mind and ready him for everything the day has to offer. He quickly slipped into his school uniform before proceeding downstairs.

"Kira! Are you awake? Your breakfast is ready!" Cagalli yelled.

"Yes, I'm on my way down!"

The twins have been living under the same roof ever since attending Archangel academy. Although Cagalli would occasionally stay over at Athrun's house, she would always be back early enough to ensure that her 'little brother' got a proper breakfast.

"We better hurry Kira, only 20 minutes before the next bus leaves."

"There is still plenty of time, don't worry"

The pair ate their breakfast slowly, all the while keeping an eye on the time. Cagalli however soon broke the silence.

"So Kira, have u decided who to ask to the prom yet?

"Uh. Wait, what prom?" asked Kira between mouthfuls of scrambled eggs.

"You mean you never even gave it a thought?" Cagalli sighed with defeat. She always knew the brunette wasn't much of a social person, but she never expected he was ignorant to school events as well. "It's this Friday, you better ask someone before all the good ones get taken." Cagalli said with a wink.

Before all the good ones get taken? To me there is only one good one Kira thought dreamily.

"Kira, stop spacing out on me like that."

"Uh… what? Sorry lets just go to school now"

School classes passed by rather uneventfully, and Kira couldn't get his mind off the prom. Classes ended after class and before long the last bell rang signalling the end of school for the day. Kira slowly packed up his books when all of a sudden he heard a familiar voice calling out his name.

"Hey Kira! Want to walk home together today?" came the usual cheerful voice of the pink haired princess.

"…Sure" Stuttered Kira, for he had been thinking about her the whole entire day. "If you don't mind, do you want to grab a bit to eat at the freedom mall on the way?"

"Sounds great to me"

The pair strolled out of their classrooms and slowly passed the courtyards leading straight to the school gates. The cool gentle breeze helped ease down Kira's nerves. The only thing that was on Kira's mind was the prom. Although they chatted throughout the journey, Kira wasn't really paying attention. In his head, he was trying to find a way to ask Lacus out to the prom.

"So Lacus, what would you like to eat?" Kira asked casually as they arrived at the food court.

"Its ok, you don't need to bother youself." Lacus replied with her usual smile.

"How does the chicken burger meal sound?"

"Sounds great! Thanks Kira."

Kira soon found himself sitting across the table from Lacus as they ate their meal. It has to be now or never! Kira took a deep breath and decided to take action.

"Um Lacus, I was just wondering…."
