Volume Ten

"Let's see…" Shiho whispered while looking at the manga. "Fall In Love Like A Comic Book has increased numerous fans up to nearly thousand girls."

"WOW! THAT MANY?" Lacus exclaimed excitedly. "This is so exciting isn't Cagalli?"

The twin girl blushed. "Come on guys… It's been three and a half months I've release my latest manga." Cagalli said.

"Still it's incredible that you raise high. You should be happy to it." Kira smiled at his sister.

The blonde haired girl blushed harder at her twin brother and her friends' compliment. But not just their high compliment, also for having such numerous rating s and fans of her newest project. It was all thanks for Athrun's help making her draw more realistic of her romance scenes yet her friends and Kira still didn't know that the navy blue haired lad had already knew her secret. She wants to tell them yet her hearts was still not ready.

"Anyhow do you guys want to hit the mall later?" She asked them with a smile on her face.

"I thought you have a deadline to settle?" Kira pointed out.

"Oh that… I've taken care of it." She smiled.

"Hey guys!" Athrun greeted them. "Hey Cagalli."

Athrun wrapped his arms around the twin girl, which causes her to blush. She move him aside then started to scold him once more while the navy blue haired lad just smiles at the furious mangaka. Kira, Lacus and Shiho started at the strangely behavior of Cagalli and Athrun. The twin boy has uneasy feeling of his friend's attention to his sister.

"ATHRUN! IF YOU'RE MAKING A BAD MOVE ON MY SIS!" Kira shouted at him as he took a rope out of nowhere.

Everyone went to chibi then sweat-drop as they saw Kira's over protective mode They were quite surprised seeing the twin boy's other color yet they didn't quite expect this would come. Except for Cagalli who was embarrassed to see his mode again as she slaps her head and sighs softly.

"Gosh… This is the first time he show it here." The blonde haired girl muttered irritated.


Stellar was reading her favorite manga, she was incredibly in a good mood as she has her cute smile pasting on her lips. She was also sitting under her favorite tree in the shade that helps her preventing to get sunburn. As she turns the next page, she noticed a shadow of a person appears. She looks up and saw a handsome guy with blonde hair and emerald green eyes holding a bouquet of flowers.

"Excuse me… erm… do you know a girl called Shiho Hahnenfuss?" the guy asked her nervously.

"Yes I know her in fact I saw her at the back court not so far " Stellar replied. "You should take that route."

"Thanks you helped me." He thanked her.

The mysterious guy bowed politely at Stellar gratefully and left her. The magenta-eyed girl just watched him go curiously of the color of his eyes. She felt his emerald eyes were rather familiar yet she doesn't recall where she had seen it before. Then she noticed Shinn was standing net to her as he sat down.

"Oh hi Asuka. Were you here the whole time?" she asked him.

"Na… I was here a second ago before that guy you talked with left." Shinn replied. "IS he your admirer? I mean he was bringing flowers."

The magenta-eyed girl shook her head. "No he wasn't but I think he is Shiho's admirer." She answered.

Shinn let out a relief sigh. "Boy and I though she was going out with him." He whispered.

"Did you say something, Asuka?" she asks him.

"Ah! No-I… I d-d-didn't say anything!" stammered the messy-raven haired lad.

The magenta-eyed girl watched at the messy-raven haired lad's stammering and nervous then she saw him forcing himself to laugh, which she finds it really weird. But she didn't say anything to him but she just sighs softly and thought boys-are-weird. Shinn saw Stellar's expression and hung his head embarrassingly.

"Now she thinks I'm really weird." He told himself.

Away from Shinn and Stellar, Meyrin was standing secretly watching at the two. She has two mixture expressions on her face while she was keeping her eyes on the magenta-eyed girl. She is worried and concern for Stellar while she was angry at Shinn. She gripped her hands and gritted her teeth then she walks away.

"I won't let Shinn take away someone dear to me." Meyrin whispered. "Don't worry Stellar I will protect you."

Heine was having a hard time looking for Shiho around DESTINY Academy, not just he was lost but he felt uneasy felling when he saw all the girls were staring at him love-struck and the guys were glaring at him envy. The blonde haired lad felt so unfair why things happened to him but he didn't complain as he continues searching for the certain long copper brown haired girl.

"Let see… she said I could find her here." Heine thought.

The blonde haired guy continues to look around the school ground's backcourt where he sees a track and field course. Of course he found nothing just as he was planning to go back and asks to the girl he met earlier then he sudden heard a familiar voice not so far away. He looks around and saw Shiho with four unknown people. He felt lucky that he finally found her.

"SHIHO!" Heine called her.

Shiho turned around and saw Heine standing in front of her while he was carrying a bouquet of beautiful red roses. The college guy was out of breath as he was gasping to catch his breathe again. Cagalli, Lacus, Athrun, and Kira noticed an unfamiliar guy was talking to their long copper brown haired friend. The navy blue haired lad gasped when he saw Heine then he turned around quickly.

"Crap! Why is that guy here in the first place?" Athrun muttered.

As Shiho and Heine were having some small talk, the blonde college guy gave her the flowers and she kindly accepts it then she smiled at him sweetly. Cagalli and lacus started to cheer their friend while Kira whistles and claps. The long copper brown haired girl blushed at their cheering especially the blonde college guy was embarrassed. Then he noticed one navy blue haired lad had his back turn yet his back was somehow familiar.

"Are you gonna introduce me to your friends?" Heine asked her.

"Oh right… Guys I'd like to meet you another friend of mine Heine Westenfluss. He's a college takingFine Art in Minerva." Shiho introduced. "Heine these are Lacus Clyne, Kira and Cagalli Hibiki."

"You two are twins?" Heine gasped surprisingly. "Now this is the first time I'm seeing a boy and girl twins."

"I'm Kira." Kira smiled. "This blonde girl is my sister, Cagalli."

"Lacus Clyne… also known as Kira's current girlfriend." Lacus smiled proudly while holding her boyfriend's hand.

"Also not least Athrun Zala." Shiho added.

Heine's ears perk up when he heard Shiho's addition introduction of her other friend. He turned his attention to the certain navy blue haired lad who still had his back. Athrun gulped but he took the courage to face him and greets him with a nervous smile. The college guy stared at Athrun then… he suddenly gave him a headlock.

"HEYYA ATHRUN!" Heine smirked. "I didn't know you were studying here all along! It's been years since I last saw you!"

"Ack! You-'re… Cho-king me… please… let… go...of… me… He... ine.." Athrun choked.

Cagalli, Lacus, Shiho and Kira stared strangely at Heine sudden changed personality towards Athrun as he was still busily giving him the strongest headlock. The navy blue haired lad was nearly gonna die as he was losing his conscious luckily the college guy noticed his unmoving figure as he let him go. Few minutes later, the handsome lad finally revives then he glared at Heine with furious look.

"Anou… Heine, Athrun." Shiho called them. "Do you guys know each other?"

Heine coughed his throat clearly. "Let's just say Athrun and I are cousins." He replied with a smile.

"WHAT? IS THAT TRUE ATHRUN?" Kira gasped while he held Athrun's shirt.

"Yes, Heine is telling the truth." Replied the handsome lad. "Will you take it easy, Kira."

"No wonder why you two shared the same eyes color." Shiho wondered. "Heck I never expect they were cousins."

"This is a perfect event for my next chapter!" Cagalli squealed excitedly

Heine looked at his watch, "Hey I think you guys should head to class." He told them. "Also I need to talk Athrun privately."

As the college blonde haired lad emphasizes the word, Athrun suddenly frown at his cousin's words but he did what he Heine said. He told his four friends to go without him he'll catch them up later. Kira, Lacus, Shiho and Cagalli blinked their eyes then they gone back to the school building heading to their classroom. Athrun and Heine watched them go until they're gone, the handsome lad looked at the college guy with serious look.

"Okay spit it up, Heine. Did my Father order you like the rest did?" Athrun sneered him.

"No but I didn't side him." Heine replied. "Also if I was siding him why on hell I live normal like others do. And I also escape that damn place with you years ago.Like you I want to be free and I don't like to go that place again."

The navy blue haired lad observed his cousin's sincere expression. "Is that so…" he whispered. "But I saw them… Father's men came to this school few days ago."

"WHAT? ALREADY! Has he ever gonna give up?" the college guy hissed.

Athrun shook his head sadly. "No I guess he is willing to use his powers hunting us down." He told him as he clenches both his fists.

Heine noticed Athrun's anger risen up and his expression were much angry than he last saw it. He also felt mad as he gritted his teeth together. Both boys shared the same emotion that they were angry at, as they seem to be recalling some bad memories that they have in their whole lives.

"Now that we already know that Father is serious. We should be extra careful." Athrun concluded. "How far will be live normal?"

"That cousin I don't know yet." Heine replied. "It's nice meeting with you again."

Athrun nodded his head as he watched his cousin walking his way out of DESTINY Academy. Heine's serious expression has not yet remove from his face when he was heading out. Then he recalls one unpleasant memory of his young self-stayed solitary in his room.

"Uncle… Athrun and I won't go back not even in a million years." Whispered the college blonde haired guy.

As Heine almost reached his way to the gates but then he suddenly stopped as he saw someone was blocking his way. One certain guy was standing in front of the college blonde haired guy and that person was no other than Yzak. The platinum-silver haired lad was glaring at him as Heine seems to know why he was glaring like that then he walks pass him.

"I've already made my move on Shiho." Heine told him.

"What are your plans to her, Heine?" Yzak sneered him.

The college guy smirked. "Courting her what else?" he replied. "Is there something wrong if I court her?"

Yzak winced at Heine's word. "Let's see about that, Heine. I won't let you succeed." He said.

The college blonde haired guy didn't say another word to eh platinum-silver haired lad but he continues to walk his way out of DESTINY Academy. Yzak stood there like a figure of statue still has his serious expression on his face. Then he started to walk his way to his classroom still has that expression stuck on it.

"I won't let him get away." Whispered the ill-tempered lad. "What the hell— am I thinking? Why am I worked up to that Hahnenfuss?"


"Stellar!" Meyrin called the magenta-eyed girl.

Stellar almost got surprised when she saw Meyrin's face was making a scary look but that's not all as her loud voice rings her ears. The magenta-eyed girl looked at her young friend then she gave out her normal smile.

"Is there something you need, Meyrin?" Stellar kindly asked her.

"Yes can you tutor me on my math? I'm not good at it.' She pleaded her.

"Sure thing want me to meet at your place?" she suggested. "I mean your house is near."

"That'll be great!" Meyrin smiled excitedly. "I'll make something delicious when we reached there."

"Errm… yeah…" she nodded. "What's wrong with Meyrin? I've never seen her acting like this before."

As the magenta-eyed girl was staring at her young friend Meyrin was smirking evilly from the inside as she looks at Shinn who appears to be standing behind her. The messy-raven haired lad seems surprise when se saw the younger Hawke was in front of Stellar. Not just he was surprised as there was a slight sweat on his face. The young Hawke secretly smiles victoriously.

"Looks like I won this time, Shinn." She smirked.

Shinn looks at Meyrin still nervous yet somehow afraid when he saw her strangely expression that she was giving him. Then he noticed Stellar was staring at him curiously then he suddenly excused himself that he left something from the lockers as he quickly exits the classroom as fast as he could until he reaches the boys' restroom. He looks himself at the mirror with a painful look.

"Meyrin… are you still angry at me?" Shinn whispered himself. "What errors have I done to you?"

Back to Cagalli, Lacus, Shiho and Kira who are sitting in their desk waiting for their teacher to arrive any minutes. The brunette twin lad was getting anxious of his pal's strange behavior towards his cousin called Heine. He has a bad feeling that Athrun was hiding from them on something yet his mind started to wonder. Then Athrun appears with his usual smile across to his face.

"Sorry guys… things have gone longer for me to explain my cousin." Explained the blue haired lad.

"It's okay, Athrun. We thought you two were very close so it must be normal that you should catch up." Said Lacus with her usual calm and angelic smile.

"Hey Zala tell us how you know about your cousin?" Cagalli asked him curiously.

Lacus, Shiho, Kira and Athrun shoot her a questioning look to the famous mangaka. Cagalli blinked her eyes probably numerous times while her face was written 'what'. The half twin lad was much surprised hearing his sister was interested to know someone since he had known her that her mind focus in the world of manga.

"I didn't think you get interested, Cagalli." Kira pointed out sincerely.

A large vein pop appears on Cagalli's head. "People change for somehow so they could live!" she yelled at her brother irritated. "WHAT ABOUT YOU CHANGE TO HORNY?"

Kira glared at his twin with deep crimson flush on his face embarrassingly then he started to yell at Cagalli for blurting out too loud that is not true. Later on Cagalli yelled at him back, which started them another brother and sister quarrel. Shiho started to sighs defeated while watching at their fight. Lacus was trying her best to break their fight as for Athrun he just enjoys the show.

"I'd rather enjoy this kind of life than being in that cage." The navy blue haired lad thought. "I won't go back to that place again even Heine dislike it too."

Athrun turned his attention to the furious blonde haired girl who is still arguing Kira and Lacus was still trying to stop their arguments as they see their Biology teacher was already there. the navy blue haired lad grinned with interest still has his eyes on Cagalli.

"Without Cagalli I won't find life interesting." Athrun added.
