"I'm home!" Kira yelled as he shut the door behind him, "We're in the living room!" a voice yelled back. Kira followed the voice and plumped down onto his couch "Today has been very eventful" Athrun said looking at his friend, Kira sighed "What's the first thing I do? I tell Shawn I'm dating Lacus and now both nations know too" Cagalli chuckled "That's what you get for not asking her out" Kira cringed "It's not my fault that I get swarmed everyday by people, anyways did you guys eat?" they nodded "I finished what you were cooking" Lacus said looking at him. He smiled "Well then I'll just have my coffee" he got up and poured himself coffee "What about dinner?" "I hardly eat dinner anyways, I usual have work to do" Lacus frowned "You don't have work so you have to eat" Kira smiled "Ah that's when you're wrong, I have work want to see?" he put down his coffee and disappeared behind a corner, when he returned he brought with him a stack of papers piled all the way to his chest. He walked to the middle of the room and dropped the stack "This is what I deal with during weekdays" Cagalli looked at the stack and at her brother "Is this typical?" he nodded "I've been doing this since me and Athrun graduated from University, but it has gotten easier over time so no need to worry about me" Athrun relaxed "And you guys say your line of work is hard, look what Kira does"
"When do you finish?" Lacus said looking at Kira, "If I started from this morning then I would have finished by the afternoon? Really it varies depending how much paperwork I need to do" he sat down. "Hey Kira are we still going the assembly line?" he nodded "I plan to, I need to go head back to the Union on Wednesday to sign the stuff" Cagalli joined in "What is this assembly line?" Kira closed his eyes "What me and boyfriend plan to do is to basically create more jobs that will draw people to OS" he continued "In that line we will need OS designers, testers, researchers, and people who will work the manufacturing line and what I mean by that is we basically need people to add existing OS mechanics things to the 'developing' OS as it travels down the line, keep in this in mind the existing OS mechanics will change depending on what OS we want to make" Lacus and Cagalli looked at him dumbfounded "Do they get paid?" Kira smiled "Yes they do, me and Athrun worked this out they will get paid $20,000 per week there are 4 weeks in a month so the people working the assembly line will get about $80,000 a month; and in a whole year that would be around $960,000" Cagalli gagged "That's almost 1 million a year" Kira nodded "Ever since I became the boss we have added about 500,000 workers, we have about 1 million workers, and they all get paid differently depending on their job"
"Yeah, ever since Kira and I redid everything we have become more active than before and to accommodate the amount of requests we had to hire more workers" Kira added "But this will be the last time we'll hiring because we can now keep up with the demands and pay everyone accordingly" Lacus giggled "I may have spaced out to have of that but I think what you're doing is wonderful" Kira smiled "Why thank you, anyways where are you staying Lacus?" "I'm staying at Cagalli and Athrun's house for the week" "That's good" he looked at Cagalli "Like I said I can't hangout Wednesday because I need to sign this deal with the workers union" Cagalli shouted "No! You have to reschedule" Kira shook his head "It will only take a few minutes, you guys can come with if you want to" "Cagalli I think what Kira wants to do is very important" Lacus said backing up Kira. Cagalli looked at him "As long as we get to sleep here until Wednesday" Kira shot up "Why so long?!" he glanced over at Lacus before looking Cagalli straight in the eyes "Where will Lacus stay then?" Cagalli smiled "She'll come with us here and she'll stay here with us until we leave on Wednesday" Cagalli turned towards Lacus "You wouldn't mind would you?" Lacus blushed "I-I don't mind" Kira sighed "I don't know what you're trying to pull here Cagalli but I will not fall for it" Cagalli let out an evil laugh "Oh yes you will" Kira rubbed the bridge of his nose "Lacus follow me I'll show you to your room" he started walking up the stairs, Lacus followed. Once Kira got to the top of the stairs he said "You can have any room up here other than mine and the couple down there which is that one" he pointed, Lacus nodded, she started walking up and down the hall thinking she decided to pick the room closest to Kira "I'll take this one" she said blushing, Kira looked at her "S-Sure, make yourself at home then" he was about to walk back down when Lacus stopped him "Why do you have lots of spare rooms?" Kira smiled "I don't know I think they'll come in handy someday" "And why are the rooms so big?" "I don't know, I like the wide open feel"
"So Clyne how are you going to kill the boy?" he looked at him "I thought for a few minutes, I cannot kill him but you can" Mr. Smith looked at him "How so?" "That dinner we were supposed to have on Saturday can be held on Thursday Kira will attend" "How do you know if he'll attend?" "I asked him personally on the phone earlier today" Mr. Smith smiled "Very well, let's put a twist on this" Mr. Clyne narrowed his eyes "Twist?" "Me and my son will kill him, but if he doesn't attend and your daughters there-""You will not hurt my daughter is that understood?!" Mr. Smith laughed "Then make sure he attends or your daughter goes bye bye" Mr. Smith then vanished out the door leaving Mr. Clyne in a state of panic.
"Oh man! I regret everything!" Mr. Clyne said mentally slapping himself a thousand times over, "I need to make sure Kira shows up" he quickly dialed Kira's number
Mr. Clyne finally heard the phone pick up "Hi Kira?"
"Hi sir!"
"The dinner will be held on Thursday"
Kira muttered "Thursday?"
"Yes we are going to have it held on Thursday"
"Oh okay, let me tell Lacus"
Kira moved the phone away from his mouth and yelled "Lacus! Your dad moved the dinner to Thursday!" "Okay!" Lacus yelled back.
"Okay she knows now"
"Why is Lacus at your house?"
"Oh Athrun and Cagalli let her stay at their house, but since Cagalli demands that they stays here until Wednesday, Lacus is forced to stay over here until Wednesday too"
"Don't pull any funny business on my daughter got it?"
Kira decided to play around he whispered "Too late"
"What you say?"
"Ah I mean you have my word"
"That's what I thought"
"Bye sir"
"Bye"
Kira put the phone back and sighed "This week is going to be a long week" "How will it be a long week?" Lacus said joining them in the living room. Kira stared at her "Lacus stay away!" Kira said moving to the other end of the living room, she looked at him confused so did the others "What did Lacus's dad tell you?" "Yeah what did my dad tell you" he grinned "He told me what Lacus does when she's alone" Lacus's eyes widened, she ran up to him and punched his arm "Don't tell lies! What did my father actually tell you?" Kira rubbed his arm "Geez didn't need to hit so hard" "Tell me!" Lacus demanded. Kira instantly grabbed her and trapped her in his arms "Let go!" Lacus said giggling; he shook his head "Your father said I am not allowed to pull any funny business with his daughter" Suddenly Lacus stopped squirming "No funny business?" "Yeah no funny business" "What do you mean by-"Lacus's eyes widened "Eww!" she pried herself from Kira's grasp "He said that!?" Kira laid down his eyes stared at the ceiling "Well you're the one who said I'm dating you" "Well you're the one who told both nations!" "You'll thank you later"
Cagalli smiled "You guys are such a good couple, I'm glad you guys said you were" Kira smiled "Hey speaking of couples when are you two going to get married?" Athrun looked at him "W-What?" "When he finds out he needs to buy me a ring first!" Kira chuckled "I won't allow you two to get married" Lacus frowned "Why not?" "Because it will be weird to have Athrun as my 'brother-in-law' and besides when I fire him things will not go well" Athrun's eyes widened "Fire me?" "Geez man I was just kidding, but that marriage thing I'm serious even though I want a nease" Kira got up and poured more coffee for himself. "What is with you and wanting a 'nease'?" Athrun said looking at Kira "Well it will make up for me not having a baby girl" Lacus mumbled "Maybe that's why Kira has so many rooms" he smiled "You're right, that's one of the reasons"
Kira looked at the clock "Oh dear it's 8:00pm" he quickly chugged his coffee before placing the empty mug on the table "Well it's my bedtime now" he got up "Don't make a mess or make loud noises" Cagalli smiled "Doesn't matter since the only thing that can wake you up is Nothing" Kira looked at her vaguely "Meh" he started walking towards the stairs "Oh and Athrun if you want beer it's at the bar" Lacus and Cagalli stared at him "Why do you have beer?" Kira sighed and continued walking "I'll tell you tomorrow, oh and when Athrun is here without you he and I drink a couple" Kira then disappeared upstairs. Cagalli turned to Athrun "Why?" Athrun stared at her, he started inching his way to the other side "U-Uh, I need to get our clothes!" he said running out the door. Cagalli sighed "I guess we'll have to wait for a bit" Lacus smiled "Indeed"
Next Morning
It was Tuesday morning and for once Kira woke up before everyone else; he started dragging his body towards the stairs. When he made it down the stairs he went towards the kitchen to eat his breakfast when he finished, he walked into the living room only to see Lacus asleep on the couch. Kira smiled and walked up to her "The things I do for you" Kira then picked her up and started walking towards the stairs "Kira?" "Go back to sleep" "W-What are you doing?" Lacus asked her eyes re-adjusting to the light "I let you borrow a room for a reason you know" "I feel asleep in the living room?" he nodded "Go back to sleep" she nodded and rested her head on his chest, she slowly closed her eyes. Kira smiled, he started walking up the stairs. Once he reached the top he turned towards Lacus's room he slowly opened the door and walked to the bed, he placed Lacus on the bed and brought the covers over her body.
He whispered "Lacus?" he nudged her and the only response he got was Lacus rolling over to her side. Kira smiled and unconsciously leaned down and kissed Lacus on the cheek, Lacus blushed immensely, Kira on the other hand slapped his forehead "Why did you do that stupid!" he whispered to himself, Kira decided to roll with it and quietly walked out of the room slowly closing the door behind him. "Okay Cagalli you can stop hiding now" Suddenly Kira heard a bang "How did you know?" Cagalli said rubbing her head "I'm smarter than you think" he looked at her "Well as you can see this is not the time I wake up so I will go back to bed" he turned towards his room and started walking "Oh and don't destroy the house or you'll have to clean it up" he said entering his room closing the door behind him. Cagalli muttered "Still don't know how I'm his sister" before walking down to the living room to watch some TV.
Eventually everyone started to gather around the living room, well except Kira Yamato. "Why is he taking forever to wake up?" Cagalli yelled, Athrun sighed "Maybe because he is tired" Cagalli smirked "From carrying Lacus to bed" Lacus's eyes shot towards Cagalli "Not true!" "Oh? Then what's the truth?" "I was busy thinking about Plants and I must have fallen asleep" Cagalli crossed her arms "Mhm" Suddenly they heard something or someone fall down the stairs "Kira?" "Don't mind me just minding my own business" Kira said looking up at the ceiling. "Why did you fall down the stairs?" Kira chuckled "I didn't fall down, I rolled down the stairs" "Then why did you roll down the stairs?" "To get down faster" Kira stood up, and gave his body a good shake "Alright time for my morning coffee" Lacus frowned "Is that all you eat now days?" he nodded "For breakfast and lunch I drink coffee, dinner I have a feast" "That's not good you know" Kira smiled "Yup I know"
He got his coffee and sat down beside Lacus "Okay kiddies where are we going?" "Let's go to a park or something" Athrun sighed "We are too old to go to the park" Lacus thought for a bit "How about we go to the mall?" suddenly Kira spat out his coffee "Oh man! Knowing girls they will buy everything" Lacus smiled "You have to get used to it if you want to have a girl" Kira frowned "Get Athrun to bring you, I'll take a nap here" Cagalli shook her head "You're coming whether you like it or not" Kira smiled "You cannot boss around your older brother Cagalli" "I don't know what you're getting at but I'm the older sibling" Kira shook his head "Then why do you want me come? To babysit you?" Cagalli glared at him "Fine then! Don't come! I don't need you to babysit me" Kira smiled "Sweet! If you need me I'll be in my bed" he started walking triumphantly "Oh no you don't" Lacus walked up behind him and grabbed his ear "Hey! Don't do that!" Lacus ignored, she just dragged him back to his friends "He's coming he'll just get changed" Kira shook his head "No way" Lacus tugged on the ear, Kira winced "You coming?" Kira yelled "No!" and shook his head violently finally removing his ear from Lacus's grip. Kira then ran towards his kitchen island and grabbed a bottle before running up the stairs to his room, screaming "You'll never take me alive!"
Lacus sighed "He may be a successful businessman but he is very childish" Cagalli burst out laughing "Thank you for agreeing with me mom" Lacus blushed slightly "What did Kira bring up anyways?" Athrun shrugged and walked to the island, he looked into the drawer and chuckled. He popped his head out smiling, the girls watched as they heard something being opened. They watched as Athrun brought a bottle from underneath the counter, he took a long gulp from the bottle before placing it down. "Athrun what your drinking?" Cagalli said looking at him "I'm drinking the thing Kira brought to his room" "Which is?" he shrugged and quickly chugged the drink before tossing it in the recycling bin. "I'll take a little nap" he started walking "What did you drink?" Athrun shrugged and continued his quest to his room. Cagalli walked up the recycling bin, her eyes fixed onto the bottle "Why did you drink beer!?" Cagalli yelled, she didn't get a response because Athrun ran up as quickly as he could, closing the door behind him.
"You mean that Kira?" Cagalli turned to her and nodded "I'll get Athrun and you get Kira" Lacus nodded and the two girls marched upstairs. Cagalli quickly barged into her room "Athrun!" "W-Wait Cagalli I-"Cagalli slammed the door shut. Lacus knocked on Kira's door, no reply; she knocked harder still no response. She opened the door slowly and saw Kira asleep one arm dangled off the bed holding the beer in his hand, his body covered by blankets and pillows. She slowly walked up to him she slowly leaned down and reached to take the beer out of his hands, once she grabbed hold she pulled it out slightly. Suddenly the bottle was gripped tighter; Kira muttered a phrase before dozing off to sleep. "Kira?" Lacus quickly pulled the bottle out of his grasp, her eyes widened when she noticed that the bottle was basically empty. She placed the bottle on the nightstand before giving Kira a nice shake "W-What do you want mom?" "I am not your mother" Kira rubbed his eyes "Oh it's just you" Kira pushed her away "Go back to bed" Kira flipped over and was about to fall asleep when Lacus jumped on the bed "No you get up mister"
Kira moaned "I don't want to get up let me sleep!" Lacus hopped onto Kira's back, she took his head and started plowing it into his pillow "What are you doing?" "Get up!" "Take a nap with me then?" Lacus blushed "W-What no!" "Then I won't get up" Kira then slowly started to fall asleep "Don't sleep Kira Yamato!" she the response she got was heavy breathing. She sighed "I guess I better get Cagalli"
