Chapter IV : A Twist on the Dance Floor

Disclaimer : I do not own Gundam Seed/Destiny…


Forgetting on how to control her mouth, and stunned at her own words, and remembering that she was in that type of place, she quickly restated "Oh what I meant say was, 'Oh gosh what about those pictures'"

Good for her the only one who heard anything was the person she was dancing with.

For the better or the worst the person that she was dancing clearly heard both statements, and was a bit startled, "Cagalli?, What are you talking about?."

"Nothing just a slip of the tongue…" said the blonde princess turning her head away to look at the other guest dancing. "Just something I forgot O.K?"

"Perhaps Ms. Athha, would there be something you like to share with me? Or better yet the truth?" coolly replied by Athrun.

'Now what's exactly gotten into him? Maybe I should've worn that shirt after all.' The blonde thought, "Athr—Mr. Alex possibly there is a dilemma within you at this moment?" Retorted Cagalli, easy on the names she order herself.

"Don't try to talk fancy with me it doesn't suit you that well….."

She cut him off "Oh and excuse me, I didn't believe I was being accused of something earlier…"

"I'm not accusing you of anything, it just seems that you're a little bit distant from me the past days.."

"People get busy Ath- Mr. Alex, it's natural especially for people like me, you are being anxious too much.."

Shocked ,just a little bit of what the blonde said he pulled her close so that she hear him whispering in her ear "I'm sorry I didn't mean to upset you, I hope you wont get annoyed by me."

She pulled away, although she was shocked even more because she just won, a bit too easy, she still remember where she was, and she had to keep her distant apart, no matter how much it hurt her.

She wouldn't admit that she was wrong, she just had too much pride. However what she did do was, to relieve him somehow by saying "Oh, your making me feel guilty. Now I do quite believe I should tell you about it, you're going to know sometime anyway."

The sense of relief made him feel better, and so accordingly made him forget that they were still dancing, and made him mess up. Just a little bit. He brushed it off.

Unfortunate for the blonde princess, because wasn't lying when she said she couldn't dance, and consequently couldn't brush it off and ended up stumbling, and yes some people did witness it, including Ms. Simmons…

They stopped dancing

"Are you ok?"

"Quite …"

"Cagalli!" she darted over, and saw that she was yes indeed dancing with Athrun, or no it Alex now right?

"I never thought you would play one of your childish tricks on me Cagalli, please you still have to greet some other people, I just can't the Representative taking off on me can I?" Ms. Simmons stated, while pulling the blonde princess away from her knight.

"I tell yah later!" she told him.

Although still confused at the moment, he couldn't help to grin for the fact she stop talking so upright with him.


Other side of the ballroom, Kira was the one having difficulty leading..

"Lucky you have me to guide you" Lacus giggled out.

Something was wrong with Lacus, she was always so serious, well not like that but still.. But now she's like different. 'It's probably just her way to shake off some stress.' The brown hair boy thought.

"Might I inquire on something?" His curiosity left him with a way mark with trouble.

"Of course Mr. Kira," She said while still able to guide them both gracefully along the dance floor.

"Why was Cagalli crying?; And what about you too? Is something wrong?" Kira did share similarities with his best friend after all.

"Oh my, of course not, what ever made you think that?" sounding more like herself Kira pressed on..

"Well you were crying both of you, and that some extremely a rare sight…." He almost glared at her.

Recognizing the attempt "Kira, nothing is wrong with me, I promise you…." She sounded almost sadden.

Sigh of relief he had believed her, he always did. But after all his curiosity went on.

"I know that, sorry for that, but I can't to bother that it's not about you it's about Cagalli and Athr-…"

"Shssh Kira please don't mention names…"

And without complete examining, of the more than obvious situation at hand the brown hair told himself 'It is about those two then, Isn't?'


After the waltz stopped, Kira was finally at ease, because he could sit down and try his best to understand the 'situation'

Lacus was free too now, the night was almost over she still felt that what Cagalli had mention earlier did have some importance, otherwise she wouldn't of neglecting her hosting duties, or was that just her perspective on the matter. Nevertheless she still thought maybe she could go see the blonde princess.

She elegantly wander off into crowd of people looking for the representative.

Kira, lost in his own thoughts, still sat at the table telling himself, 'I wonder if it was Athrun or Cagalli, that caused something.' Still he didn't want two people who he really cared about not to be in good dispositions.

So he set off to a plan, to solve a problem he was totally wrong and in fact did not even exist yet.

But before that the blue hair boy sat beside Kira, and casually said "So how's the evening so far with you? Not much of a dancer are you?" grinning at the last part.

"And you do all so well covering up the fact she can't dance really, didn't know you could"

"She's not a bad dancer"


She was at last freed from her guest and found the pink hair princess coming up to her.

"Ms. Clyne well certainly glad to see that you're the first person other than those…."

"As well as I, were you trying to ask me something a while back.." she had hoped it wasn't too serious.

"Yes, about that we need to talk somewhere private even just for a couple of minutes.."

Cagalli lock the door just make sure no one could listen to their conversation..

"Cagalli?" Lacus voice fainted, she was a bit scared for a moment,

But much worse was about to happen next

Cagalli fumbled through her hand bag and a bit surprised herself she was using one. Pulled out her cellphone, And did display the picture of them eating ice cream after the wind came, and a article

It read…

"The Two princess Trading Top Sercets….

….Over Ice Cream…"
