Chapter 3: Names
Yuno then yelled out, "I don't know his first name but his last name is Creuset".
"Wait did you say Creuset", Lacus asked?
At fist Kira was startled by her sudden question and saw she was next to him. He then turned his attention back to Yuno who was slowly trying to reach for something under the table cloth. Kira was too late Yuno had grabbed a revolver and aimed it at Lacus. Kira quickly moved in front of Lacus. Yuno stayed still with his gun pointed now pointed at Kira.
Lacus was surprised at his speed; her eyes had been closed the entire fight and couldn't bring herself to open them once. She than began to think to herself, why is he protecting me? I don't even know him, and yet he's ready to take a bullet for me. It's not like she was complaining but she just found it odd.
Kira was growing frustrated until he noticed something. Lacus and Yuno were stunned when Kira began laughing.
"What are you laughing at? In case you haven't noticed I'm the one with the gun pointed at you so you should be quiet", Yuno said in an agitated tone.
But this only made Kira start to laugh harder.
Yuno became furious and yelled out, "shut up if you don't I'll shot you and that little bitch".
When Kira seemed to get his laughter under control he spoke up and said "With what in case you haven't noticed you don't have a trigger on that gun".
Yuno looked at the gun and was horrified to see that Kira was right. There was no trigger. He dropped his gun and closed his eyes waiting for the gun shot. Instead he felt something come into contact with face and blacked out.
Kira rubbed his fist as he turned to Lacus. He noticed the odd look on her face. She was studying Kira so intently she didn't notice Kira staring at her. After a few moments it dawned on her that he was actually looking at her. Once she realized she'd been caught she averted her gaze and began to blush uncontrollably.
Kira began to laugh at this and said, "It looks real cute when you blush".
Lacus slowly returned her gaze back to Kira and noticed he was smiling at her. That smile reminded her of someone. 'Who is this person he reminds me of someone but I can't put my finger on who it is'. Kira was simultaneously thinking the same thing. 'Who is she I know her from somewhere but I can't remember where.
After a few moments of silence Lacus finally decided to speak up.
"Um thank you for saving me when I tell my father I'm sure he'll give you a huge reward", Lacus said.
Lacus normally didn't like to throw her money around but she was still a little unsure about this mans intentions toward her.
"Thank you for the offer but no reward is necessary helping you was thanks enough", Kira replied.
All of a sudden Lacus started to laugh. Kira was puzzled. 'Why is she laughing did I do or say something', Kira thought to himself.
Lacus noticed his confusion and decided to solve his bewilderment.
"I'm Sorry for laughing but what you said sounded like it was from a movie in the fifties", Lacus said while trying to control her giggles.
Kira sighed and asked, "What were you doing around here anyways you don't look like your from around here".
Lacus suddenly remembered what had happened earlier and the feelings of sadness rushed back to her.
"I got lost", Lacus replied in a sad tone.
Kira noticed this but also new she wasn't telling him every thing. But he decided not to push it as it was none of his business and it obviously upset her.
"So who is this Creuset person that Yuno spoke about", Kira said trying to change the subject.
This had got her attention away from what she was thinking and back to the present. At first she didn't know what he was talking about then it came back to her.
"Well if it's who I think it is he's the commander of zafts military and he reports directly to chairman Zala of the plants.
This got Kira worried, "the commander of Zafts military? If he wants you captured that's a bad thing because he's got almost endless resources at his disposal and as a bonus it's not likely anyone would believe us even if we told anyone because he's got to be a highly respectable man in order to get into that position", Kira stated.
"Well although you're right about the near endless resources I'm not to sure about the respectable part. From what I heard he and chairman Zala have done horrible and dishonest things to get where they are", Lacus replied.
"Well that still doesn't make anything much better but then again there's no use in worrying about right now", Kira said while yawning.
Lacus was about to say something when she noticed there was blood running down Kira's arm.
"You're bleeding. Are you hurt"? Said Lacus worryingly.
Kira looked at his arm and remembered the gunshot he'd taken during the fight.
"No it's nothing just a minor flesh wound". Kira said trying to keep Lacus from worrying.
Lacus saw right though his lie and lifted up the sleeve on Kira's shirt reveling the gunshot wound.
She gave him an angry look and said, "this is no minor wound you were shot".
To Kira it was a minor wound because he'd been shot several times before therefore getting used to it and plus he'd always had a high pain and blood loss tolerance.
"No it's okay I'm used to it it's no big deal I can handle it", Kira said trying to keep her away from it.
"Let me take care of it if you don't take care of it soon it could get infected and you could get sick and besides if it weren't for me you wouldn't have got shot in the first place so please let me take care of it, Lacus pleaded with him.
Kira was about to protest but then he saw the look of sadness in her eyes as she was close to crying. Kira didn't know why but he lightly embraced her. At first she was shocked at his sudden action but quickly relaxed as it some how felt right to her. After a few moments he slowly backed away, put his hands on her shoulders, smiled slightly, and looked her right in the eyes saying:
"All right you win I'll let you take a look at it".
Lacus smiled as she looked around for a first aid kit. She found one on a wall next to the door. As she ran off to go get it Kira wondered to himself 'this is strange I've never acted like this before. As a matter a fact I've never felt like this about anyone before'. As he was thinking that she'd come back with the first aid kit.
"Alright lift up your sleeve", she ordered.
Kira obediently did as he was told and lifted up his sleeve. She took a pair of tweezers out of the the kit and began to look for the bullet. It wasn't long before she'd found it as it wasn't deep.
"Alright I found the bullet I'm going to pull it out now okay so this might hurt a bit", she said.
As she began to pull the bullet out she noticed he wasn't making any sign that he was in pain he just stood there with a calm look on his face watching what she was doing. She shook the thought out of her head and continued what she was doing. When the bullet came out the wound started bleeding worse so she quickly applied pressure to the wound until it stopped bleeding. She than cleaned the area around the wound and applied a cloth that had peroxide to the wound itself. Lacus was amazed this had to hurt like hell and yet he was just sitting there looking as if nothing had even happened to his arm. She removed the cloth and rapped his wound with cloth.
"There all done now that wasn't so bad now was it", Lacus said smiling.
"Don't take this the wrong way but I'm surprised you know how to treat a wound like that", Kira said in disbelief.
"We'll my father made me learn things like this just in case something happened".
Kira was about to say something when he heard sirens. And they were getting closer. Someone must have called the police after hearing all the gunshots. Kira got nervous real fast it wasn't like he was wanted by the police it's just they tended to ask questions that Kira didn't like.
Kira suddenly grabbed Lacus's hand and led her outside the building to the side of the street where he knew they'd see her.
"I'm sorry to leave you like this but I have to go just wait here until the police arrive and than tell them everything okay".
"Okay", Lacus responded still confused about his sudden urge to leave.
He than quickly began to walk away and when he was almost out of sight Lacus called out to him saying, "Thank you again and I hope we meat again".
He turned and said, "Your welcome and I hope we meat again to".
He than walked out of sight.
When he was about four blocks away both of them remembered something.
They both forgot to tell each other their names.
