"I passed!" Cagalli shouted jumping up and down. "Lacus, Shiho I passed!"
The two smiled at her. "Congratulations."
"Oh my." Lacus looked at her and pointed to someone. Two people were walking towards them, one was waving and the other one was looking at the ground while walking.
"Kira!" Cagalli waved enthusiastically. "I passed!"
Kira smiled as they stopped in front of the girls. "Well then congratulations."
"How about you? Did you pass?"
"Yep."
Cagalli smiled widely and held her head proudly. "Haha.. I knew I could do it."
Shiho and Lacus clapped for her. Kira smiled and then remembering something. "Ah oh yeah."
Cagalli looked at him and so did the other girls. "Hey. I want to introduce you to my best-"
"Athrun!" Several girls shrieks were heard. They were running from different places and all towards him.
The girls noticed this and thought that trouble is on its way. "Uh, then we'll be on our way. see you" and the three left in a hurry.
Kira sighed. And turned around to see His best friend already circled by a barricade of women. "This will be hard."
"Hey, mind if I sit beside you?"
Athrun looked up from his laptop and was about to apologize since he doesn't want girls to sit beside him coz they would only try and distract him with their annoying attention and petty conversations. But apparently he did not when he realized who it was. "Uh, go ahead."
"thanks." She placed her bag and sat down on the chair beside him. And promptly looked at him. "You're Mr Athrun Zala, right? The one who was always with Mr Kira Yamato."
He nodded. "And you are..."
She raised her hand and offered him a handshake. "Shiho. Shiho hahnenfuss. I'm the friend of a friend of Kira's."
He took her hand and gave it a firm handshake. "Pleasure to meet you. As you may have already known, my name is Athrun Zala. I am the friend of a friend of yours."
Shiho laughed as they released each others hands and Athrun turning his attention back to his laptop he was still in the middle of putting up a new presentation for the new marketing strategy for the company. "Hey. Can I ask you something? You have a crush on my friend? Right?"
He jerked but tried to remain composed not looking at her. "I d-don't know what you're talking about."
Shiho smirked and placed her chin on her hand looking at him. "Rea-lly now. Then I guess you being all blushing and glancing at her whenever we met you would mean nothing?"
Athrun slightly nodded. Not speaking, afraid that it might just give him away.
"Oh, alright then." She retreated her hand and stood up from her seat. "Cagalli! Over here! I saved you a seat."
Athrun looked at the person beside him before looking at the person who she just called. He was sure his breathing had stopped.
Shiho moved away from her chair and took her bag. Slinging it on her shoulder. "Then I guess you won't mind being her seatmate for this class the whole semester." She said winking at him. "I'll be leaving her to your capable hands." And then she left. Going to her real class.
Athrun really did not know what had happened as his heart had just gone on ahead and exploded. And his mind...where was his mind?
"Hello. My names Cagalli Yula Attha and you are?"
"Hey! Wait up!"
The two boys looked around to see who was calling. Cagalli had just stopped in front of them and then catches her breath. Then looked at the two. "Mind if I join you guys for lunch? Shiho has a seminar to attend and Lacus was dragged off by the music club to God knows where. And the others has a statistics retake. So I'm afraid I'm all alone for lunch."
Kira took a glance at his friend before giving her a smile. "Sure you're very welcome with us. But I'm afraid I would have to pass. The professor wants me for something. Athrun is the only one who's free. Do you mind?"
Cagallis shoulder slumped slightly but her smile was still intact. "Of course not. If Mr Zala doesn't mind?" She looked at Athrun who was on the process of smacking his thick book at the brunette. "Umm.., would that be fine Mr Zala?"
Athrun immediately hid his textbook behind him looking everywhere except the blonde. The usual blush on his face which was unnoticed except for Kira. "Um, th-thats fine with m-me."
"Alright, OK, I'll be leaving you two now." Kira dashed away from them afraid that once the girl turns her back. Athrun would murder him.
Cagalli watched as Kira turned the corner. Before looking at Athrun. "So. Should we head out?"
Athrun looking at the opposite direction nodded.
Athrun ate his sandwich silently as he sat relaxed at a bench somewhere around the University Garden while reading his book. The quiet atmosphere and the cool gentle breeze was so relaxing he thought there was nothing in the whole world that would distract him from his reading.
"Mr Zala, the book's upside down." came the voice of someone who would make his whole relaxed state a mess.
"Uhh, yeah" he blushed and turned the book to its right position. "T-thanks."
"You're welcome." She shrugged then continued to eat her double cheese burger with ketchup and chili sauce.
Athrun took a glance at her from the corner of his eye. His heart beating at the speed where a race car at its fullest would be shamed and its beating like that of a drum being beaten continuously without mercy. It was like a dream come true. Well actually he hasn't even thought of being with her like this. Her not knowing that he existed until a week ago.
"What a beautiful day it is." She stared at the blue sky.
"Yeah…" He said looking at the sky as her.
And they remained silent. Her finishing her burger while looking at the sky. While he took a bite at his sandwich while trying to calm his beating heart.
"Hey." She looked at him. And he immediately gave up quieting his heart. "Can I ask you something?"
"S-sure." He stuttered not even trying to conceal the heat that was plastered in his face.
She looked at the sky again. "Is Kira always...Happy?"
And Athrun's face immediately dropped. Suddenly remembering that having to bear affections with this girl was pointless Because of the reason that she was in love with his best friend. He stared at the ground not wanting to see the smile that he had so longed to be for him as she thought about someone else. "Yeah."
And they remained silent. Him not even taking a look at anywhere but the ground. Her looking at the sky with content as she finished her burger with ketchup and chili sauce.
His sandwich was left unfinished.
Meer Campbell was fidgeting as she fixed her long straight pink hair when she entered the classroom and immediately looked for someone. Noticing that he was not there. She exited and made her way through the corridors in search for him.
And she smiled widely when she saw him walking towards her way his head lowered. "Athrun!"
And he looked at her as she hugged his arm. "I need to talk to you. Please."
Athrun tried to pry her hands off him. "Wait…Let me go…Meer...!"
And then she stopped tugging on his arm as she heard a voice near them. "Well then I'll just go on ahead. Thanks for accompanying me Mr Zala." The blonde bowed and then left them.
Meer then stopped smiling when she realized that Athrun stopped struggling. And her heart broke as he saw his eyes longingly looking at nowhere else than the blondes back as she walks away from them.
She slowly let go of his arm.
He has rejected her even before she can confess.
And that won't be the last of Meer Campbell...I have nothing against her...just...
Well anyway, Thanks for reading! Don't forget to review!
