Chapter 9: Kira and Lacus do what?

"Cagaili just clam down and tell me about everything that had happened." Lacus said after leading Cagaili to the nearby bench.

"Lacus I…I…I am so confused! A part of me wants to listen to what Athrun had to say but I am scared, scared of what he is going to tell me. What if he really chooses Meryin over me? I don't think I will be able to take it Lacus." Cagaili said as she hugged Lacus tightly and cried.

"Cagaili…" Lacus said as she stroked her hair and whispered comforting words to her.

"Lacus what should I do? I am so confused!" Cagaili cried.

"You should stay and listen to what Athrun have to say." Lacus replied.

"Why?" Cagaili asked "Why must I listen to him if he is going to tell me something that will hurt me?".

"Because if you don't you will never know the truth if he really loves you or not." Lacus said.

Cagaili's crying soon stopped as Lacus continued.

"I know how you feel Cagaili." Lacus said. Cagaili looked surprised and asked "How do you know how it feels like?"

"Well it was just after the first war when Kira had decided to stay with me on earth. I was surprised that he would want to live with me but I knew that he live with me only because he doesn't want to live his parents after finding out about his birth." Lacus paused as she stares at the crimson sunset.

"Lacus?" Cagaili asked.

"I also knew that Kira was in love with another person when he was living with me but, even though she is dead but I know that Kira will not be able to forget her and even though it hurt me that he will never love me, I would always try to act as if nothing had happened and try to make him happy."

"I know that too…Kira was in love with Flay during the war until she's killed…"

Lacus nodded. "I know that Kira was in love with her too, but Athrun told me that Kira said that he love me even more than he loves Flay, but I knew that Flay will always be the one in his heart and Kira will never forget her. Even thought I know that, I would live everyday with a glimmer of hope that someday Kira will really love me for who I am. That was the only thing that keeps me going to cope with the death of my father. However one day when Kira and I were taking a midnight stroll on the beach what Kira told me was almost the same thing that Athrun had told you…"


2 years ago...

"Lacus there is something I want to tell you about…" Kira started as they were walking.

"You can tell me anything Kira." Lacus replied.

"Lacus I have doing a lot of thinking recently…about the war, Flay…and you…"

"Me?" Lacus asked surprised.

"Yes. I know that you love me and you have sacrificed almost everything in your power to help me…"Kira paused and continues.

"Lacus, I just want to tell you about…about the both of us."

"About us?" Lacus asked. 'What does he mean?' Lacus thought.

"Lacus I love you but I…I…"

"It's ok Kira. I understand." Lacus answered knowing very well what Kira was trying to tell her.

"You do?" Kira asked surprised as the both of them stopped walking all together.

"I know that you cannot accept my feelings for you because you love Flay and you are afraid that I will hurt you just like how Flay did right?" Lacus said as she tried to act as casual as possible but deep down she was breaking down slowly.

"Lacus I…"

"Its ok Kira I understand. I will not force you to do anything because it is fine by me. But we will always be good friends right?" Lacus said as she flashed a false smile.

"Lacus…"

"It's late already I must go back to the house or else the children won't sleep at all unless I tell them a bedtime story." Lacus said as she started walking back to the house.

"Lacus wait!" Kira said as he hugged her from behind. "Lacus please hear me out first before you go anywhere." Kira pleaded. When Lacus remained silent Kira continued.

"Lacus I wanted to tell you that what Athrun said is true because…because I really love you with all my heart. I am sorry if I too so long to tell you but I just need the time to sort out my problems." However Lacus was not convinced. If Athrun had talked to Kira he must have gave Kira another one of his talks to help Kira snap out of depression and other things like her feelings for him.

"Kira, you don't have to say that just because you feel sorry for me I don't want to force you into anything…"

"Lacus I mean it. I am not lying or anything. Please believe me…" Kira pleaded.

Lacus turn around in his arms and was about to speak when she was kissed by Kira. Lacus was surprised at first but soon gave in and started kissing back with the same amount of passion. After a few minutes the both of them finally broke their kiss for some much needed air.

"Kira I…I love you too… you don't know how long I waited for you to say that…" Lacus said as tears of joy flow out of her eyes.

"I am sorry if I take so long Lacus, because I just need to settle some of my problems before I can move on with my life…" Kira said sheepishly.

"So have you found the answers to all your problems?" Lacus asked.

"Yes I believe my answer is standing right in front of me." Kira replied as he shortened the distance between their lips, kissing her with all he had.


"So there is always a chance that he will say that he still love you and the both of you were lovers before so, I think the chances of that happening is very high." Lacus said thoughtfully.

"I guess you are right then..."

"Well then let's head back now shall we? We couldn't keep Athrun waiting you know, he will be worried if you didn't go back soon." Lacus said cheerfully.

"We cannot keep you beloved Kira waiting you know. I better hurry back before my brother kills Athrun for breaking my heart." Cagaili joked.

Lacus nodded as they made their way back to the memorial.

"So tell me Lacus, how are you and Kira doing now?" Cagaili asked while they were walking.

"We are fine." Lacus answered.

"I don't mean how the both of you are but how far are you in your relationship with Kira."

"Well Kira has become more intimate and have become more open with his feelings now…and last night he finally took our relationship to the next step." Lacus replied while blushing as she recalled the events that happened the night before.

"Really? So the two of you really did…that?" Cagaili asked shocked.

"No! No, not yet we only got to second base last nigh." Lacus replied immediately very well knowing that Cagaili had a wrong idea of what they did.

"What? You and Kira too two years just to get to second base? I thought the both of you were way over that stage a year ago!" Cagaili exclaimed.

"Well Kira and I used have some intimacy problems because he is shy but now I am trying to help him change that…"

"I can tell that Kira is becoming more cheerful now that he is living with you so I only natural for him to open up to you now."

"I guess you are right…" Lacus said as they saw Kira and Athrun sitting on the bench talking.

"So that was all that the both of you talk about." Athrun asked after Cagaili had finish speaking.

"Well that's about it. Now it's your turn."

"Okbut you must not tell anyone else about what I told or else Kira will kill me. What I am about to tell you is about how Kira..."


In the other room

Kira and Lacus were making out fiercely as Lacus had Kira pinned down on the bed and they only broke the kiss when the both of them were out of breath. Kira stared deep into Lacus eyes as Lacus lay on top of him.

"Lacus, are you sure you want this?" Kira asked because this was something that they cannot undo after they had done it. Lacus smiled as she lean forward to kiss him.

"Kira I trust you that's why I am sure…" Lacus replied as lay her head on Kira's chest.

Kira turned over so that he is on top of Lacus and began to place kisses all over her neck as they continue to make out again.

Just as Kira's hand was about to remove Lacus dress, something round and hard came flying to his face.

"BANG!"

Kira fall face down onto the floor from the impact and a mechanical voice was heard.

"Haro! Haro! What are you doing Lacus?" Pink chan asked while bouncing on the bed.

"Pink chan!" Lacus exclaimed as the haro jump onto the bed. "Don't you ever do that again okay? It's dangerous." Lacus then went to examine Kira who was lying on the floor.

"Are you alright?" Lacus asked while cuddling Kira's injured head against her own.

"I am fine already even thought that was quite a hit." Kira replied half jokingly. Lacus giggled.

"Anyway don't you find it strange that pink chan and the other haros seem to disturb us every time we are in the middle of something?" Kira asked.

"I must admit it's a bit strange but what can it be? Unless Athrun reprogrammed them or something they would not act like that…"

"Wait…did you give him your haro for repairs recently?"

"Well I gave my haros to him for repairs when we were still on the Eternal so it was quite recent I guess…" Lacus said thoughtfully.

"Then I am sure it was him alright. I figured it out when he called me a few days ago so I am sure."

"I guess I will just have to ask him to program them back right?" Lacus asked.

"Of course but this time I will ask him myself." Kira replied as he climbed back onto the bed. 'A perfect moment ruined by a stupid haro, I will get back at you Athrun!" Kira thought.

"Actually it is not ruined at all…"

"What?" was Kira's last thought before he was tackled by Lacus who started to attack his lips again.

The both of them made out on the bed until Kira broke the kiss after awhile and sat up on the bed looking around for something round…and noisy.

"Kira what are you looking for?" Lacus asked while she leaned against him.

"Where is haro? I don't want him to come interrupt us again…"

"Don't worry I switch it off already." Lacus paused before gathering her courage and asked her next question. "Kira would you like to take a bath?"

"What?" Kira asked shocked.

"Would you like to take a bath with me? I got something that the both of us will enjoy…" Lacus asked while taking a pink bottle from her bag.

"Err… sure…" Kira replied while Lacus pulled him along with her...
