Gundam Seed Destiny: A New Future
CHAPTER 9: Misinterpretation
Cagalli awoke early the next morning, and felt glad when she remembered that her brother was finally with the one whom he loved the most. Feeling whimsical, she decided to go to Kira's room to see if he was awake yet.
She paused outside the door of his room and listened in, but did not hear anything, so she presumed that her younger sibling was still asleep. Slowly, she inched the door open and peeked into the semi-darkness. When her eyes adjusted to the dim light, she was so surprised by what she saw that she stood rooted on the spot, gawking at the scene.
Kira and Athrun were sleeping together on the same bed, and they seemed to be naked as well. The blanket that the two boys were sharing was covering the bottom half of the both of them, so Cagalli could not be sure if that was true or not. But what she could see was that Kira, who was smaller in size and slimmer, had snuggled into Athrun's exposed chest and he had his arms wrapped around the larger boy as well.
When Cagalli finally recovered from her surprise, a mischievous grin crept onto her face as she thought of a brilliant idea. She wanted to have souvenirs of that beautiful scene for herself to remember, and to a lesser extent, to have something to tease Kira about. So, quietly, she snuck back to her room and retrieved her personal camera, and returned to Kira's room, where she took several pictures of her brother and his boyfriend sleeping peacefully together. After doing that, she closed the door and returned to her room to contemplate further about what she saw. Could her little brother and Athrun really have�
Half an hour later, she gave up on wondering about the issue and returned to Kira's room. This time, however, she did not bother to be quiet about it. Instead, she banged loudly on the closed door.
"Kira!" Cagalli yelled. "Are you awake yet? I'm coming in alright?"
When she heard a startled exclamation to her announcement, she smirked to herself. Then she quickly pushed the door open.
The scene inside was chaotic. Athrun was sitting on the bed, while Kira had fallen halfway to the floor, his legs still tangled in the blanket that was currently wrapped around Athrun. Both their faces were red with embarrassment and had panic written all over it. To Cagalli's relief, she could see that both boys had their boxers on, meaning that they might not have done anything the previous night after all. Furthermore, it also prevented Cagalli from seeing two naked boys together, which was something that she was not quite ready to see yet.
Cagalli suppressed her laughter and feigned a look of surprise. "Oh my. Did I interrupt something important?" She asked innocently.
"No! Nothing was going on!" Her younger bother replied instantly, his face very, very red. "I know this look wrong, but we didn't do anything! Honest!"
"Oh?" Cagalli gave Kira a faked look of suspicion and disbelief. "Nothing happened last night?"
Kira shook his head vigorously, his voice going squeaky as he protested hurriedly. "It's not what you think Cagalli! We didn't do anything of that sort!"
Athrun, who still had not said anything, nodded his head in agreement.
"Really?" Cagalli asked dubiously, a small smile on her face.
"Please believe me Cagalli!" Kira pleaded, giving her a look of total innocence that made him look like a small, cute kid.
Cagalli's smile widened, as she approached her brother and leaned down to hug him. "Of course I believe you Kira. I know that you would never lie to me about such things. I was just playing with you anyway, so don't get upset over it."
She stood up and grinned at the two boys. "You two should get changed before the others wake up as well and see you in this situation. They might not believe what you say about it."
As she turned to leave the room, Cagalli looked over her shoulder at her younger brother. "Actually, Kira." She remarked. "What you and Athrun do is none of my business, so you can go ahead and do whatever you like with him. He is you boyfriend after all, not mine."
At that, Kira's face turned redder, if that was possible, and he exclaimed indignantly. "Cagalli, stop teasing me!"
Cagalli laughed and closed the door behind her.
"I wish Cagalli would just stop teasing me." Kira muttered, half to himself as he dressed for the day.
"Your sister's just having a little fun, Kira, so don't get too bothered about it." Athrun assured him. "I'm sure she loves you a lot, and would never think of harming you in any way."
"I know that, Athrun." Kira replied. "It's just that it makes me really uncomfortable whenever she does that. Just now was really embarrassing too. I just hope that she really doesn't think that we did that. Maybe I shouldn't have asked you to sleep together with me so soon."
Athrun sighed. "Kira, you're taking this too seriously. Cagalli was just joking." He moved over to hug the smaller boy, who was sitting on the bed. "Sleeping together is the natural first step. We may not have done it yet, but we will get round to it someday you know. As Cagalli did say, what we do together is our own business after all."
Kira blushed at Athrun's response. "I haven't quite thought that far yet you know."
Athrun gave Kira a small kiss before standing up and opening the door. "It doesn't really matter yet does it? Let's just enjoy being together for now."
Kira smiled shyly in response, and stood up as well. "Alright then." He murmured, moving over to give Athrun a hug. "We've still got Shinn and Luna to talk to today after all. And I don't know what might happen then."
Athrun nodded, smiling as well, and they left the room to look for their friends together.
