Ch 4: A Date Too Far
The sun was already setting. Kira was home getting ready for his date. Why am I even bothering, he thought.
Don't you think she's hot, a voice answered.
Kira jerked up. Well no I don't!
I know better you know. You can't stand losing that pretty face, hmm?
Shut up! If you're my conscious, you should be telling me better!
Well I'm not your conscious.
What?
I'm your desire.
Kira groaned and walk to his closet. He picked out a plain blue shirt with white pants. He then looked at the time and gasped.
Oh no! I'm late!
He quickly put his clothes on and ran to the schoolyard. When he finally made it, he didn't find Flay. He started to look around, but saw no trace of the crimson haired devil. Maybe she forgot, he thought, or maybe she got tired of waiting. Maybe-
His list of maybes came to an end when he felt 2 hands creep up his back and rest on his shoulders.
"Sorry I'm late," said a familiar seductive voice.
Kira turned to find Flay now up against his back. Of course she changed her attire, now wearing a thick, light green tank top with a black miniskirt. Her new slippers were also black, and she retained her previous ties in her hair. This made him blush. She looks… pretty cute, he thought. "I-it's alright. I just got here myself."
"Well, you really know how to sweet-talk a girl, don't you Kira," Flay asked, now deliberately trying to push her breasts into his back.
Kira tried hard to restrain himself with great difficulty. "Really, I did just get here."
This didn't stop Flay, but rather, encouraged her to keep going. I'll make sure you belong to me and no one else. "So anyway, where do you want to go first?"
This got Kira to forget the feeling and think. Well, I suppose you normally eat on a date. Yeah, why not? He motioned himself to signal Flay to get off, and she, surprisingly obliged. "Well, why don't we go eat something?"
Flay just gave Kira a lustful stare before nodding. He's already sweating. I'll have him soon then.
So they wandered off aimlessly for a restaurant, and stopped at Churchill's Chicken.
As the name implies, they both ordered chicken dishes. Flay also took a salad, along with soda, while Kira just took a glass of water. Both foods were served and they ate; Kira had garlic chicken, and Flay took normal chicken covered in lemon juice. The waiter mistook them for a couple and gave them a discount which put more strain on Kira's wallet. They were sitting outside on black, highly designed chairs and a similar table. It was quiet for the most part, until Flay started talking.
"So Kira, do you have any plans for the week?"
Kira thought it over for some time. He knew Flay was doing this to set up another time for them, but he couldn't lie. Then, he suddenly spoke out his current thought: "Well, I do have plans to see some old friends over the weekend, and I've got some work to take care of on Friday."
Friday was 2 days away. It was Wednesday today, and Kira knew he was seeing Lacus tomorrow. He had accidentally lied, but he was glad about it.
Flay didn't waste any chances. "Well, what about tomorrow?"
"I was asked for something already tomorrow."
"By who?"
"Ms. Clyne needed to see me."
Flay tried to maintain a cool temper at the sound of that. That women is trying to take my Kira! Guess I'll just have to make sure he doesn't see her! "It's probably nothing though, why not just-"
"Flay, I already suggested it to her."
WHAT! Him to her! I'll-
"But I'm free for the rest of the day after that," he added.
-gladly take you for another date tomorrow then. "Well, how about we go out again, hmm?"
As much as he wanted to say no, he couldn't, and nodded his head. Flay smirked. "Alright then, same time tomorrow?"
Kira nodded again, and they continued to eat after.
Miriallia was sitting on a bench by the school. She had apparently been waiting for someone to show up who never did. Finally, she got up and walked off.
Jeez, he's always keeping me up every day, she thought; I wonder if I should even bother.
"Missing him?"
Dearka had popped up behind her, causing her to stumble back a few steps.
"W-what are you doing here?"
"Just thought I'd give you company. After all, he's still busy you know, especially with other ladies."
"Sure, like I would take any crap from you."
"Guess it doesn't matter to me. It's matters to you though."
"Why don't you just keep your nose out of my business? I'm not coming to you."
"Suit yourself. Feel free to come crying to me after you learn the hard way."
And he walked off.
What the heck? I can't keep my mind off her.
Athrun was trying to relax in bed, but every second, Cagalli's image would fill his mind and break his trance. He was now sitting up, wearing frustration on his face. Cold sweat had formed around it and his hands.
I think I'll just take a walk. Yeah.
Kira groaned in thought. They were now at Flay's house, and it was empty for the week; so Flay said. They both stepped out of Kira's car and Flay was already heading in. Kira paused for a moment which Flay caught.
"Coming?" she asked.
Kira responded with a sigh and walked in. They had just, or rather, Flay had just suggested that they could go to her house while they had been strolling around in the park. Out of instinct, Kira said no, but as Flay was always pushy, and he had to give in.
He took a seat on the couch before looking out the window. It was dark out, and a blue shine of the full moon seeped its way through the window and filled one fragment of the house. The stars weren't great in number, but their luster was as bright as ever.
Turning around, he looked at the house. It was pretty neat and clean, lots of marble walls and white carpet floors, a fireplace far-sided from the stairs, and the dining room just down the hall.
Turning to find Flay, however, Kira saw her walk upstairs and enter a room. He decided to wait for the time being and think. He lied to Flay earlier, he had to see Lacus tomorrow, the date actually went pretty well from his perspective, and he was free for the rest of the week. He then remembered his homework, but then recalled that he finished it in study hall. He sighed in relief at the thought.
5 minutes passed and Kira was still waiting. What's taking her so long, he thought, she went up to her room I think. Kira waited a little longer, and finally decided to go check on her. Climbing up the stairs, Kira tried listening for anything, but he heard no sound at all. This made him stop before entering. It's like a lion sitting in the grass, waiting for its prey. What's Flay up to? He thought it over, and eventually his curiosity got the better of him. He walked up to the door and slowly pushed it open. He glanced at the inside and saw nothing. Kira was now starting to worry. He then heard another door creep open in the hall. Jerking his head in the sound's direction, he was staring at what appeared to be the master bedroom. "Flay, is that you," Kira called. He received no answer. So Kira stepped away from her bedroom and walked over to the room. He saw nothing, felt nothing, heard nothing; he was enveloped in fear. At last he stepped inside. Taking another look around, he noted on how clean the room appeared. Everything seemed new to him, never been touched. Something then caught his eye. He was now staring at a shelf top, housing a simple pendant with a chain of gold. The pendant itself had a gold boundary, was shaped as an oval and its core held a mix of glittering emerald, amethyst, sapphire, gold, maroon, and black color.
Kira was dazzled by the linking swirls of its core, how they formed quite an abstract picture. He walked toward it for a better look and then plucked it off the shelf.
"What are you doing over there?"
Kira jumped and hid the necklace behind him. Flay was at the opposite edge of the room. Now wearing a very seductive, lustful stare, she made her way to him, slowly. Kira carefully put himself against the shelf and replaced the pendant before turning to face her.
"Where were you? I called for you earlier, but you-"
Kira was stopped as Flay reached up to him and kissed him. Now completely surprised, Kira broke away from her as fast as they had joined. "What's with you? What are you doing?"
Flay didn't answer. She just attempted to retrieve his lips as he tried to avoid her. "Come now Kira, don't you want me," she asked in the deepest tone she could possibly muster.
The words he just hear shocked him to his very soul and he stood there, frozen.
Flay just took it to her advantage and kissed him again.
Cagalli was sitting at home wrapping up her algebra assignment. Looking at the clock, she wondered where Kira was. It had been at least 5 hours since he had to meet her, and it was almost 10 P.M. If he doesn't show, he won't be able to get up for school, she thought, unless he's sleeping right now somewhere.
She got up and grabbed her jacket. Guess I'd better find him.
Kira was now struggling against his desire to stay down. Flay had shoved him down on the bed and was now on top of him, attempting to remove his shirt. When she saw that he was at unease, she pulled back and decided to remove her own, beginning with her skirt. Kira took notice and finally flared, pushing Flay off him and running out of the room.
What the hell was that! he screamed in his head, I shouldn't have even taken this date!
He grabbed his keys, unlocked the door of his car and started it up. He took a quick glance to see if Flay was following, but didn't see her. So he drove off without looking back.
Flay hadn't moved since Kira had escaped. She was astounded; no one had ever done something like that to her.
Oh well; at least this makes it more interesting, and fun too.
She turned to leave, but then caught something. The pendant on the shelf seemed out of place. Her face then turned dark as she grinned. An idea had sprung to her.
What do you know; 4 chapters in such a short time. Well, hopefully you all enjoyed them, and I'll try for chapter 5 tomorrow. Don't bet on it coming though I will be going on vacation soon and tomorrow is mass packing day, so I may not get the time to post it. Hopefully I live through the prying heat of India to finish this off. Later!
