Chapter 2

Cagalli and Athrun ran to try catch up to them, but they failed they decided that they would meet them at the ice cream shop. Once they came into the ice cream shop they saw Kira and Lacus eating ice cream having a good time, Kira looked up and saw them he said "Get your ice cream" Cagalli told Athrun what she wanted and walked towards her friends leaving Athrun to buy for himself and Cagalli.

The three talked and talked until Athrun brought Cagalli her ice cream, he sat down as he joined the conversation "That was really manly of you Kira" Kira smiled "Well thank you my fellow female" Cagalli choked on her ice cream before letting out a laugh. "Nice one Kira" Cagalli said wiping a tear from her eyes "It wasn't that funny" Kira said looking at her, she shrugged and raised a finger towards Lacus she looked at her confused "What is it Cagalli?"

Cagalli smirked "I saw what you did back there" Lacus replied "I don't know what you're talking about" as she continued to lick her ice cream "Don't pull the innocent card, Kira saw it to! Isn't that right?" Kira smiled "Sorry I have real bad memory" Lacus giggled catching Kira's attention he smiled. "Don't give me that! I saw Lacus grab onto your arm like the two of you were a couple" she took a licked her ice cream before continuing "And on top of that I saw you Kira" she shifted her finger towards him "I saw you play along I saw you rested your head on hers don't play me like this!" Lacus blushed a vivid red "I-I still don't know what you're talking about" Cagalli turned her glares to Kira "And you?" Kira sighed "Ask Lacus" Lacus quickly directed her stares to Kira "Why me!" "Well you're the one who did that"

"Yeah Lacus why did you do that?" Cagalli said smiling at Lacus "I would like to know too" Athrun said looking at her and to add to the situation Kira decided to join in for the fun of it "I would too" Lacus slapped his arm "Ouch" Kira said pretending to wince at the pain. "Well?" Athrun said looking at her "W-Well he helped me out with getting rid of Shawn" everyone leaned in closer to her causing her to back up in her seat "Who is this Shawn" Cagalli said looking at her. "H-He is a senator up in The Plants" "And why did he follow you here?" Lacus looked at Athrun "I don't know" Kira leaned back in his chair "Serves you right for having a pretty face" Lacus blushed "I told you my father wants me to get married to him" "What for?" "Well his Shawn's father runs a company up in Plants and as you guys know my father has his company too, if I were to marry him that would give a world of possibilities for both companies" Kira nodded his head "To be honest with you that is a very good business strategy" Cagalli wacked Kira "Now is not the time for you to be thinking about business" Kira caressed the side of his head "Funny enough the meeting I was supposed to attend today was about expanding" Athrun looked at him "We're still doing that?" "I don't want to but if they give me a good reason then maybe I would consider it" Cagalli smacked the table "Now is not the time for business!" "Geez Cagalli, if anything we'll expand up in Plants".

Cagalli grunted, she looked at Lacus "Did you tell your father that you didn't want to" Lacus nodded "I did but he still treats me like a child" Kira shook her finger "That's because he believes in 'Daddy's baby girl'" Athrun chuckled "You believe in that too Kira" "Well I'm the exception". "Sorry for interrupting Lacus please carry on" Kira said gesturing her to continue. "I told him that I am an adult and that I will marry who I want to marry" she placed her phone on the table "And every day he calls me trying to convince me, he probably told Shawn to come here to try to convince me too" Suddenly Lacus's phone went off, it was Shawn.

She picked up "No Shawn I will not marry you"

"Well you are going to have to sweet cheeks"

"No I am an adult I will not submit to this arranged marriage"

"It's not an arranged marriage if you go with it"

Lacus spoke louder into the phone "Well I-"Kira quickly swiped the phone away from her.

"Hey Shawn! Its Kira again nice speaking to you! I would just like to let you know that you can go back to Plants because her friends are taking good care of her down here"

"Listen, don't interfere with this okay?"

"I interfere with a lot of things and I am sure as hell going to interfere with this" Kira said smiling

"Look kid I can ruin you so back off"

"Well my child, I am faltered that you would good to such an extent just for me it makes me feel honoured"

"Why are you trying to ruin her life by taking away her soul mate?"

Kira laughed "Soul mate? More like prison mate, judging the way she acted towards you today it seems as if she doesn't like you"

"You are just-"

"You listen here Senator Crackers, you can't have her because she mine like I told you before back off"

"How dare you disrespect a Plants senator, her father-"

"Oh right! I know her father too, you see me and Lacus have been friends since preschool and I used to hang out at her house a lot"

"You haven't heard the last of me Yamato"

"I'll be waiting Senator Crackers!"

Kira hung up and passed the phone back to Lacus "You are welcome" Kira said relaxing in his chair, Cagalli and Athrun exploded into laugher "Oh Kira it never gets old" Kira playful hugged Lacus "See I got your back" "T-thank you" a blush was visible from her cheeks from when Kira claimed that she was 'his'. The laughter died down as everything turned back to normal "Kira he is probably going to tell my father" Lacus said looking at the brunette besides her. "It's just your dad, I think I'll be fine" Suddenly her phone rang yet again, Kira looked at the caller and said "Speak of the Devil"

Lacus picked up "Hi father"

"Hi dear, Shawn was pretty upset today when he talked to me on the phone"

Lacus smiled "Well that's good to hear"

"He also told me that you're in a relationship with Kira is this correct?"

Lacus mumbled "Relationship with Kira" drawing the attention of everyone as they stared.

"Yes father I am in a relationship with Kira" Kira quickly slapped his head causing Lacus to giggle

"Oh what's so funny? Is Kira there by chance?" Lacus looked over at Kira and watched him shake his head, she smiled

"Yes father he is right beside me" she passed the phone over to Kira.

Kira put the phone on speaker "Hi Mr. Clyne, it's been a while"

"Yes how is your company?

"The company is doing fine; how is yours?"

"My company up here is doing splendid"

"So I hear from Shawn that you lay the hurt on him"

Kira scratched his head "Yeah I did"

"And why did you do that to the senator?"

"Well sir, Senator Crackers made Lacus feel really uncomfortable with him always reaching out to grab her so I decided to spare Lacus the grief"

"Ah well here is the deal, Lacus needs to marry Shawn"

"I respectfully say no deal sir; your daughter shouldn't be subjected to her father's will when she is the political leader of Plants"

"I understand your reasoning but it's in her best interest"

"Sir I have talked to Lacus, and she and I know it isn't"

"Look I understand you love my daughter but you need to break off with her"

Kira looked at the phone his face showing disapproval he looked over to Lacus he mouthed "Nice father" he turned his attention to the phone and said with confidence.

"I'm sorry sir but I'm afraid I cannot 'break off' with your daughter" he said smiling, everyone sitting at the table they couldn't help but smile and say 'awe'

"Well Kira I'm afraid-"Lacus quickly grabbed Kira's arm and pulled him close to her "I rather have Kira than Shawn" she said joyfully looking up at the blushing Kira.

"Well if that's so then Kira wouldn't mind spending dinner with us and Shawn's father and Shawn himself correct? This Saturday correct?"

Kira looked at her, his eyes wide, his body frozen, he stuttered. Lacus smiled and said "Of course we will be there"

"Very well see you this Saturday" he said before hanging up.

Lacus ended the call and placed the phone back into her pocket. "Wow Lacus that was a really fast decision" Cagalli said looking at her "Well I may have crumbled from the pressure, but I'm sure Kira would be fine with it"

All three looked at Kira; he just stood there faced in one direction at Lacus. "Kira" Athrun said snapping his fingers, Kira awaken from his Trans as he inhaled and exhaled heavily "Kira were you holding your breathe?" Kira panted "Yeah" Cagalli looked at him "And why is that?" Kira sighed "Well me and Lacus are not even a couple and I'm going to have dinner with the family this Saturday" he said leaning back into his chair. "Hey it won't be that bad, you've handled both my father and Shawn very well" Lacus said looking at him "I predict he is going to talk business" "And why do you think that" Kira leaned one arm onto the table "Well Shawn's father is going to be there he is a businessman, your father is one, and I am too" he continued "And what we us three have in common? We are owners of very successful companies"

Athrun looked at him "Then don't talk business" Kira rubbed the bridge of his nose "It's pretty hard when your time is completely eaten up by work" Kira shot back up "That reminds me" Kira swiped the air it brought up a user interface he clicked the caller interface and clicked 'Amanda' he waited until she picked up.

"Hi Amanda"

"Hi Kira, how may I help today"

"Yeah can you clear my schedule for this whole week please?"

"Of course I can do that, but you have important meeting scheduled this week"

"Are they mainly about expanding?"

"Yes it is, I'll reschedule them for you"

Kira smiled "Thank you Amanda"

"No problem"

"See you next week"

"Goodbye"

Kira closed the interface, "Done!" her said placing his hands on his head. "Let's start heading back to your house Kira" he nodded and got up "Yeah I need to finish my nap anyways" Lacus giggled "Told you guys we shouldn't have bothered him" Cagalli smiled "If we didn't then you wouldn't have told your father that you're dating Kira" Lacus blushed "W-Well" Kira smiled "Come on guys I have a bed that needs to be slept on" he said grabbing Lacus's hand as he dragged her out the ice cream shop, Athrun and Cagalli followed.

The two walked on the sidewalk enjoying the view, when suddenly Athrun chuckled catching their attention "What is it Athrun?" Cagalli asked. "Well if you didn't notice anything that Kira does whether it's minor or not always finds its way onto the news" Kira smirked "I don't think Senator Crackers would do that would he?" he looked over at Lacus "Would he?" Lacus shrugged "He'll probably say that you're cheating on him too Lacus" she sighed "I know" Kira stood silent for a second before he spoke "That won't be good for a political leader's rep, so if that does happen we'll do a press conference at my work to clear it up" Cagalli looked at him "What about you?" he smiled "Well I have a reputation of being someone that would 'shock' the world, so I don't mind being called a 'bad' boy" Cagalli placed her hands on her hips "You sure do walk the line between insulting and sarcasm" Kira mimicked Cagalli "And you act like a really saucy girl sometimes". Athrun and Lacus laughed "We can play around when we get to Kira's" Lacus said gesturing them to continue walking, they nodded and walked all the way to his house.


"We're finally home" Kira yelled running up the stair towards his room "Looks like he's going to finish his nap" Cagalli said shaking his head. "Athrun walked towards the living room "Might as well get comfortable" The two girls nodded and entered the living room, Athrun had already turned on the TV and was watching the news "You'll see the news about you two just you wait" Cagalli said "If anything Shawn is giving you and Kira more publicity" Athrun chuckled "And Kira loves being on TV screens now a days" Lacus sat down "Why is that?"

"You know how in university Kira accepted becoming the owner?" Lacus nodded "Well once he did he got surrounded by news reporters, they asked the same questions but in different ways" he continued "They still do that now, and Kira hates them they never ask anything different always the same questions, that's why when we do press conferences, he either says 'No questions' or he either makes fun of them like he did Shawn or just doesn't answer and says 'Next question'" Lacus giggled "At least he can actually deal with the press" Athrun smiled "He is called ruthless by the media, but in reality we know he isn't, he even goes to high school he talks to schools about OS and does a little workshop with them. Teachers' and principles' love him because it makes their jobs easier when he goes over"

Eventually the three got carried away in their conversation; they laughed and enjoyed each other's company. By the time the conversation died down it was already 4:00pm. "It's 4pm and Kira isn't awake yet" Cagalli said relaxing in a chair. Suddenly they heard footsteps coming down the stairs "Speaking of Kira" Kira yawned "I thought you guys went home why you guys still here?" Athrun smiled "We are not leaving without dinner" Kira smiled weakly still groggy from his sleep "Yeah, Cagalli cook something I need my morning coffee" Kira walked to the coffee machine and started brewing himself coffee "My cook? We are the guests here mister so you have to cook" "Well you and Athrun are in my house more often than me so you cook" Kira said pouring his coffee into a mug.

Lacus looked at Cagalli confusion written on her face "You guys are here often" Athrun nodded "Because Cagalli here likes sleeping her on some days" "How do you guys get in?" "Kira normally just leaves the door unlocked when he knows we're coming over" Cagalli said. Suddenly a question popped into her head "Kira why did you give Lacus a key to your house and not me?" Kira walked over to the where everyone was sitting and relaxed into one of the chairs "Because I can trust her with my key" he said as he started taking sips from his coffee. "But I'm trustworthy!" Cagalli yelled, Kira smiled "Tell me when I'm 30" Cagalli sighed "What's the real reason?" Kira shrugged "I don't know I forgot, she can have it I don't need spare keys" Lacus smiled "Thank you".

"So anyways, who wants to eat what?" Kira said as he finally took the last sip from his coffee, Athrun and Lacus said "Anything" "Anything would be fine" Cagalli on the other hand said "Something fancy" Kira smiled "Okay Lacus and Athrun something fancy, and Cagalli a cheese sandwich" Cagalli slapped Kira "Okay! Okay! I'll cook you something too geez" Kira walked to the kitchen and started cooking when Lacus asked "Kira you've never had a girlfriend before right?" Kira shook his head "No, you're the only non-official girlfriend I've had" Lacus blushed quickly turning her gazes away from Kira. Athrun said "Hey guys looks like Lacus and Kira are famous again" Kira yelled "Woohoo! I love it when the press try to get into my estate! Oh joy!"

"Today on Orb News Plants Senator Smith has reported that Multi Trillionare Kira Yamato has been dating Supreme Chairwoman Lacus Clyne. He has also reported that The Chairwoman and the Senator were supposed to get married! Stay tuned for more insight after at 5:00pm"

Kira smashed his hand "I'll be right back" Kira then quickly ran up to his room. Lacus looked at Athrun "What's he doing?" Both Athrun and Cagalli smiled "Just keep watching the TV". Kira then ran down the stairs he was dress in a very fancy suit his face written with anger "I'll be back at 6" That was all Kira said before marching out the door. He slammed it shut. All the three could he was a car turn on followed by a loud screech. "Okay Lacus just watch the TV" Lacus relaxed in her chair as she watched the screen she had full faith in her friends and most importantly in Kira.


At the new station

"We're on in 5 minutes" said a Director everyone scrambling to get into place, once everyone got into place the director started counting down "5, 4, 3, 2, 1, we're on air" "Hi everyone and Welcome to gossip corner, today I have a guest here he is a critic" He waved to the camera and shook the reporters hand. The News reporter continued "And our topic today 'Celebrities' in particular 2 people one in business and the other in politics" The critic nodded "Yes the Supreme Chairwoman, and Trillionare Yamato scandal" "What is your take on this little relationship that has been probably under wraps for years?" "Well my personal take on this is-"he stopped when they heard a door swing open.

They watched as a fumed Kira walked up towards them, he walked into their scene and sat down next to the critic. Kira stared at them for a while then smile, the new reporter looked at the director and saw the director gesture to continue. "W-Welcome Mr. Yamato, nice you of you to come here… Do you mind introducing yourself to the people at home who don't know who you are?" Kira smiled anger lingered in his voice when he said "Certainly"

He turned towards the camera, "Hi! I'm Kira Yamato the owner of the Multi Trillion dollar company that handles with creating OS for the general public and for political and Military use" He turned back to the reporter. "And why did you come here today?" Kira chuckled "I came here to tell you the truth, I would have done it over social media or over the phone, but knowing news reporters and the press they will alter what I say so I came to tell everyone in person" The News reporter froze "You can go ahead"

He smiled "Thank you" he relaxed in the chair "Well first things first, the 'supposed' marriage is a lie, The Supreme Chairwoman does not want to marry Senator Crackers it is an arranged thing that Lacus does not want to partake in" The critic and News reporter laughed "Senator Crackers?" Kira smiled "Shawn and I met for the first time today, it didn't go well" The critic asked "And the dating between the two of you?" Suddenly Kira received a text, he took out his phone and the text said "Kira :)" Kira smiled. The news reporter asked "Who is it from?" Kira looked up "It's from someone" he put the phone back in his pocket "Yes me and the Chairwoman are dating" "How long have you two been dating?" Kira said with a smile on his face "Since High School"

The critic said "So to get this thing straight, you and the Chairwoman are dating and the supposed marriage between the Chairwoman and the Senator is an arranged marriage that the Chairwoman completely doesn't agree to" Kira smiled "That is completely correct" "Well thank you for clearing that up, we'll be back after a message from our sponsors" The on air symbol dimmed out signaling that they were not being recorded. Kira got up and shook the critic's and the News reporter's hands, "I'll go now" "Thank you for showing today" Kira smiled "No problem" he started walking to his car, and started driving away.


Lacus breathed a sigh of relief, "That was close" Athrun smiled "Now everyone thinks that the two of you are dating" Lacus blushed "I-I don't mind it" Cagalli smiled "Well congratulations! The only problem is now your father and Shawn" Lacus looked at her "Kira will help me I know he will" she said smiling.


"Kira is getting in the way of everything" Mr. Clyne said looking at the TV "If you want our companies to negotiate then get rid of him" Mr. Smith said looking at him. "What do you mean?" "Get someone to kill him" Mr. Clyne looked at him crazy "Kill him? Can't I just kidnap him?" Mr. Smith shook his head "Kill him and I will negotiate until then don't even think about it" Mr. Clyne nodded "I'll get someone don't worry" his acquaintance nodded, Mr. Clyne looked at his phone "I'm sorry Lacus but it's for business"
