Disclaimer: I do not own Gundam Seed

Yay. I got to update.

Just a little note... PLEASE READ BEFORE CONTINUING

Thanks for all the reviews! For those who tell me to change the story because my it sucks, There's nothing I can do about it. I don't continue writing because I want to show off my "stupid" writing skills, But I do it to keep others entertained. So Im telling you right now, If you don't like the story, you may comment on how bad it is.

From the start, I didn't expect everyone to like it. I don't like some stories I read, So why should everyone like mine? It's just that, If you have anything to say, feel free to say it. But don't think that Im just going to stop. That will let others down, and Im not going to do that. I will continue this to the end.

But seriously, If you don't like the plot or anything, (HELLO, Its in the summary), Who told you to click the link to it! I know I know, I get distracted and don't concentrate, But bear with it please. I will try my best.

Thank you for taking your time to read this.

As for Shinn. Hmm...does anyone want to give him a girlfriend? Haha. I don't know...I did watch some of Gundam Seed Destiny and aware of his feelings towards Stellar, But I really don't know about their character as well as the main 4. Anyone smell a vote?

Anyways, on with the story.


Relax...Breathe...In...Out...

BREATHE...

And CONCENTRATE

Kira clenched his fists on the steering wheel. Lacus was sitting in the passenger seat looking out the window. Everything was...well silent.

He came to a red light and stopped. He hated this. It was so awkward. And it all started with Athrun and Cagalli. Lacus, on the other hand, was flashing back to her meetings with her other long time friends, trying to concentrate on something other than the tense-ness in the car. She had seen Yzak, Luna, Rey, Meyrin, and even met a girl named Stellar.

" Take her home! It gives you some time to talk to her one on one."

" I'm going to make a total fool out of myself"

" Don't talk to her as if you guys just broke up, talk to her like a friend...A regular friend.."

" Kira?"

Kira snapped out of his thoughts when he looked at the green light. He gulped and started driving again. Lacus just giggled.

" We're really quiet aren't we?"

" Yea." Kira said. " To tell you the truth, It's really getting rather awkward."

" I agree." Lacus said. " So how are you?"

" I'm okay" Kira said. Yea...Im great. Great after you broke my heart. Yep, Just fine. " And you?"

" I guess I could say the same" Lacus said. " Nothing much has happened over the years..." Big lie, Big lie, Big lie..

" I see."

Silence.

"Err...You look nice" Kira said, trying to cook up a conversation. Lacus had let her hair down and he saw that it went to where her ribs were. Even though she cut it, she still looked as beautiful. Lacus smiled, use to his 'sweetness'.

" Thank you. You look very handsome too"

" haha..."

Silence.

" Um..Kira, do you know where I live?" Lacus said.

" The mansion right?"

" No, not anymore.

Kira stopped the car. The roads were quiet and no cars were in sight. " Sorry, I thought it was your old house"

Lacus smiled. "It's alright, I should be the one to blame." She told him the new location and Kira nodded. He started the car, and once again, silence erupted. It continued for a while too, until they arrived at Lacus' new place. It was an apartment, which surprised Kira. Lacus was rich...but she had an apartment? She could afford a mansion, but..an apartment?

As if reading his mind, Lacus looked up at the building. "I came alone this time, No maids, no nothing. I wanted just a small place to myself, A mansion could get awfully dull and empty at times."

Kira nodded, understanding.

" Want me to walk you back up?" Kira said. Lacus shook her head.

" That's alright, I can manage" Lacus said. She unbuckled her seatbelt and was about to open the door, when Kira's hand stopped her.

" Kira?" Lacus said. Kira didn't make eye contact with her. He stared at the steering wheel as if trying to get himself together. " Lacus...Why are you back?"

The question hurt Lacus. Didn't he want her back? She should've expected it as much. " For a visit...If you want to Kira, I could leave" She turned away from him.

" It's not that" Kira said quickly. He looked at her, turning her to face him. " If you knew you could come back...why...why did you break it off with me?"

Lacus didn't say anything. She had her reasons; yes, but she couldn't explain them now. Kira continued when he didn't get an answer.

" Didn't we have fun together? I mean..I thought you were happy. If you weren't, why didn't you say so? I could've changed. I would've done anything to keep you by my side.." Kira said. " I need you, Lacus.."

Lacus turned to him, hiding her tears. "Kira...I was the most happiest girl in the world. I loved you with all my heart...And yes, I had a reason for breaking up with you. A reason which I cant tell you at the moment." She took his hand in hers. " It's getting late, Please excuse me" She leaned over and kissed him on the cheek before she got out of the car and left.

Kira sighed. Was she ever going to talk to her? I will find out Lacus...


" Score!" Cagalli cheered. Athrun sighed.

" Doesn't look like they did anything though"

" What did you call that kiss on the cheek?" Shinn said.

" Yea, knowing Kira and Lacus, A kiss on the cheek means nothing" Dearka said.

" Could'vegivenhimahickey"

All heads turned to Shinn.

" What! Im kidding!"

Kira got out of the elevator and walked towards his apartment. He was about to open the door when he felt someone pounce onto him from behind.

" Kira!"

Kira gulped. Did...he just hear that voice? He turned around slowly, coming face to face with the red haired girl." Fllay?"

Fllay smiled. " I've missed you so much!" She leaned in for a kiss when Kira put a hand in front of her face." What are you doing here? Aren't you with Sai on vacation?"

" I came back for you" Fllay said. She twirled her hair and gave a seductive smile. "Let's play tonight, But promise you'll go easy on me"

" No Fllay, I won't" Kira said. Fllay's eyes widened. Was she hearing him correctly? Kira had said no to her. She frowned as she moved in between him and the door.

" You usually would say 'next time' whenever I said that. What's wrong Kira?" Fllay said. "What happened when I left!"

" Nothing Fllay, It's getting late, go home" Kira said, pushing her out of the way. Fllay fumed.

" It's another girl isn't it!" Fllay said. " Kira! If you wanted someone with you, you should've called me, I would've came back! That bitch...Who is it!"

Kira clenched his fists together. " She's not a bitch...Fllay...I love her!"

Fllay took a while to absorb the information he said. He...loved her? He never loved anyone...anyone except...

" Lacus...Clyne..." Fllay said through clenched teeth. " She...Is she back?"

Kira didn't answer her question. "Good night Fllay" He unlocked his door and walked in, closing the door behind him. Fllay stood there, shocked. So...Lacus Clyne was back was she? She had competition...And she had to win.

" You're going down Clyne!"


" Tell me, Why am I here again?" Yzak Joule muttered. His life was definitely more amusing than shopping with 2 girls who had pulled Athrun along with them. So why was he here?

" Because Yzak, I need a present for Dearka as a anniversary gift" Miriallia said, walking up to him. " And seeing as you are his best friend, I figured you could help me"

" Oh joy" Yzak muttered. Cagalli scoffed.

" Admit it Joule, You need us to be your entertainment"

Yzak burst out laughing. Cagalli narrowed her eye at him as Miriallia and Athrun sighed. Yzak stopped laughing and looked at Cagalli.

" Oh..you were being serious"

Cagalli's face turned red from Anger. Athrun walked over to her and pried her away from the smirking Yzak, saying something about treating her to ice cream later.

" Seriously Yzak, you being Dearka's childhood friend and all, I think you would know what Dearka REALLY likes, Every time I give him a present, He would say he loves it" Miriallia said. "I really don't know if he means it at times, or he just doesn't want me to feel bad. I want to know what you think makes a good present for him."

" You really want to know what I think Milly?" Yzak said. Miriallia nodded.

" Well...Dearka would definitely love to see you in lingerie" Yzak said. Athrun and Cagalli stared at him in amusement. Did Yzak Joule just say that?

" I..Well...You see...Wh-What!" Miriallia exclaimed. " And how do you know this?"

" Let's just say...We talk." Yzak said. Miriallia blushed from head to toe. Cagalli held in her laugh.

They were silent for a while.

" Ice Cream Anyone? My Treat" Athrun said, pulling out a twenty dollar bill.


" How about a dog?"

Dearka ignored the comment and kept walking.

" A cat perhaps?"

" Shinn...Why are you here?" Dearka snapped. Shinn shut up and hid behind Lacus slightly. Lacus frowned at Dearka and he sighed.

" ...I'm just really stressed." Dearka said. "I need this gift to be perfect ya know..We've been together for a long time...and I just...I don't know.."

" It's Okay Dearka, That's why we're here" Kira said, patting him on the shoulder. Lacus smiled.

" We'll help you find the perfect gift for Milly." Lacus said. Shinn just mumbled something about trying to help but getting snapped at. Lacus just giggled at his remark.

" Didn't I apologize for that already Shinn?" Dearka said.

" You did, But Kira answered it for me" Shinn said. Kira looked at him with a confused look.

" What? I wasn't answering your part, I was saying It was okay for Dearka to be stressed at a time like this" Kira defended. Shinn was about to say something back when he suddenly saw a blonde haired girl walk by. Her magenta eyes shined with delight as she walked with who he recognized as Meyrin Hawke. Lacus followed Shinn's gaze and looked at the two girls.

" Meyrin! Stellar!" Lacus called. The two girls turned as Meyrin waved.

" Lacus! Hi" Meyrin said. Lacus walked up to them and saw the bags they were holding. It looked like they were on a shopping spree. The blonde noticed her looking down and smiled.

" Want to join us?"

Lacus shook her head. " I would love to, but I promised Dearka I would help him find a anniversary gift for Miriallia"

" Dearka..?" Stellar said. Her face wrinkled in confusion as she looked at the group of boys behind Lacus. She didn't know any of them. Meyrin saw them as well and waved.

" Hey you guys!"

Kira smiled and waved back. Shinn just snorted as Dearka rolled his eyes at him. Lacus took Stellar's hand in hers. " let's go introduce you"

Stellar gulped. "I...uh...But..."

" This is Stellar" Lacus said, looking at Shinn especially. Shinn noticed this and looked away. Lacus looked back at Stellar. "Stellar, This is Kira, Shinn and Dearka"

" Nice to meet you all" Stellar said. Meyrin walked over to them, and stuck her tongue out at Shinn. Shinn just ignored her.

" It's nice to meet you too Stellar" Kira said. Lacus looked at Shinn and Dearka, obviously trying to tell them to say something.

" Yes, What Kira said"

" Uh Huh"

Stellar walked over to Shinn and stared at him. Shinn felt his face heat up as she moved closer to him.

Beautiful magenta orbs...

" I love your eye color" Stellar said and smiled. " I bet you have a strong spirit, Full of rage Im guessing."

" Oh yea" Kira said.

" Couldn't have said it better" Dearka muttered. Shinn fumed.

Stellar smiled as Meyrin tugged on her arm, signaling her to say goodbye. Stellar nodded and waved a goodbye to the 3 boys and Lacus. Meyrin did the same and they disappeared around a corner. Kira cleared his throat and looked at Shinn with an amused look.

" Shinn's got a crush"

" Never knew that could happen" Dearka said, messing up Shinn's already messy hair. Shinn growled, smacking his hand off his head. Lacus just giggled.

" Stellar is really cute, I guess Shinn likes those type of girls."

" I do not" Shinn said. " That girl has no effect on me whatsoever, I don't even know what you're talking about, in fact-"

" Your babbling"

" Im aware of that"

" I'm sorry to interrupt this conversation but we really don't have all day." Dearka said. He just sighed and tubbed his temples. " You know what, Why Don't I Just do this myself? It would seem easier that way."

" You Sure Dearka?" Lacus said. Dearka nodded.

" Yea, But thanks for your help-"

" KIIIIRRRAAAAAAAAAA"

" For the love of.." Shinn shook his head and took Lacus' hand. Lacus looked at him in confusion as Shinn pulled her away from Kira. " Shinn, What's wrong?"

" Trust me, you don't want to see this" Shinn said as a girl jumped onto Kira from behind. Dearka just sighed and followed them. Lacus bumped into Shinn as he stopped and frowned. He pulled Lacus over to a nearby corner and hid behind it.

" Kira baby, Did you miss me?" A brunette said as she blew in his ear. Kira frowned and made her get off him. He faced her and regret ever not listening to his friends. She was wearing something somewhat showing too much skin.

Lacus felt something tug at her heart. So...what Athrun said was true. She looked at the brunette. She was much prettier than herself, so why wouldn't Kira choose her? Athrun's words echoed in her head.

" He still hasn''t gotten over you Lacus..."

"He tries to take his anger out on other girls, by...seducing them and then breaking their hearts the next day"

'Oh Kira...'

" Um...Suki, Hi" Kira said, looking rather uncomfortable. He looked around and saw Shinn and Dearka giving him a bad look. Lacus was with them..and...

"It's been a while." The girl known as Suki said. She licked her lips in a seductive way as Kira looked back at her. He couldn't do this anymore. Lacus was back, He didn't have to do this anymore.

"Yes, I've got to go" Kira said and was about to walk away. Suki grabbed his arm and Kira looked back. She gave him a puppy-dog face, her eyes pleading with him. She flung herself to him and pretended to sob quietly.

" Kira...He left me!" Suki cried. Kira groaned, running his hand through his hair. Suki continued. "He Left me for some other slut! Kira...Please...Help Me...Comfort Me...Make This Pain go Away!"

Lacus peered over the corner, just as her eyes met with Kira's. What was he trying to do to her? Make her jealous? Make her regret? Make her even feel more guilty? She was already feeling all of those...Just by one girl. Who knows about all those other girls he seduced. Who knew if she could be able to take it?

Kira pushed the girl away from him as soon as Lacus turned away. "Get a Grip Suki! You Can't Run To Me Every time Something Happens Between You And Another Man! I'm not your toy, And to tell you the truth, I never even loved you! Please, Leave me alone."

Suki gasped, her eyes widened. "You promised you would be there for me."

Kira's eyes narrowed. "I never did such a thing."

Suki growled, her eyes burning with rage. "You bastard...You took my virginity and this is how you treat me!"

Lacus gasped as Shinn and Dearka looked at her with worry. He...took her virginity? With no intention of loving her back? She shook her head in confusion and started to walk away. Shinn and Dearka looked at each other.

" I'll go." Shinn said. Dearka nodded and looked back at Kira.

Kira didn't say anything. He just looked away as Suki clenched her fists. She glared at him. "Go to Hell." She ran away, leaving Kira breathing heavily. He suddenly snapped back to reality and ran towards Dearka.

" Lacus.."

To his disappointment, she wasn't there. He just sighed and leaned against the wall. Dearka put his hand on Kira's shoulder, a frustrated look on his face.

" This isn't going to be the first time this will happen." Dearka said.

We warned you Kira, and you didn't listen, now you have to face the consequences.

Kira just had a blank look in his eyes. Dearka pried him off the wall and gave him a light shake.

" Come on, Let's go walk around."


"Lacus, I'm sorry you had to see that." Shinn said. They were walking outside in a nearby garden. Lacus just sat down on the grass, letting her senses clear.

" It's not your fault Shinn. Don't apologize." Lacus said. She patted the patch of grass next to her motioning for Shinn to sit down. Shinn did as she said and sighed.

" Let's not talk about me." Lacus said. "We really haven't talked since I was last here, How are you?"

" Me?" Shinn said, caught off guard by the question. Lacus giggled.

" No Shinn, My imaginary friend."

Shinn frowned but then a small smile came onto his lips. " Stop teasing me."

" I'm sorry." Lacus said. Shinn looked at the view in front of him. The view was definitely breathtaking. Butterflies were dancing with each other, as birds chirped. The flowers were in full bloom and the colors amde each and every second worthwhile.

"I'm alright." Shinn said. "Now that our car has made it into the finals, dropping out of highschool has made it worthwhile I guess."

Lacus nodded. " I'm really happy for you guys, all of you put a lot of effort into this sport."

" I guess you could say that." Shinn said. Lacus fingered a flower and it made her think of Mayu.

" How about Mayu? Is she alright?"

" She's great." Shinn said. "She's doing good in school, not to mention making a lot of friends. I even caught her with a guy the other day."

" Oh my." Lacus said, but smiled. "She's dating already?"

" To tell you the truth, I really don't know." Shinn said. "She never tells me, and If I ask, She only asks me back, which is why I never ask her."

Lacus giggled. "Shinn, I would love to see you be with someone."

Shinn's brows furrowed. "I don't know Lacus...It's hard to find the right one these days."

" how about Stellar?" Lacus said. Shinn stiffened, but tried not to show it. Lacus put her hand on his shoulder.

"I saw the way you looked at her. You can't hide it Shinn, Even if its just a little crush." Lacus said. Shinn suddenly found a blade of grass in front of him very amusing.

"Love is complicated. You can't be scared of getting rejected, or getting hurt. Your first love will stay with you forever. They were the ones who taught you how to love, how to be happy and how to enjoy life. Even if it comes to the point where you must separate, they will forever haunt your mind." Lacus said. Shinn slowly looked at her.

" what I'm trying to say is, If you're scared of getting hurt by her, don't be." Lacus said. " You must take a chance, and I'm sure that Stellar has a liking towards you."

" I see..." Shinn mumbled.

They were in silence for a moment. That's when suddenly Shinn felt uneasy. His head perked up and his eyes scanned the area. He quickly, but ever so gently, grabbed Lacus' arm. Lacus looked at Shinn in distress.

" Shinn...What's-"

" Be careful." Shinn said. His senses still alert. A shadow appeared behind them as Shinn flew into a tree.

" Shinn!" Lacus gasped and turned to the shadowed figured.

" You're coming with us Miss. Clyne"


Thanks for your help guys!
