A/N: I totally understand everyone's outlook on Yzak and Cagalli, it does seem queer but there is a meaning to it. Or else I wouldn't have put it in. Also I couldn't resist putting an older generation of Gundam Pilots into this story (hehehe, I got into the whole Gundam scene, after I watched Gundam Wing, so I owe that show something!). A comment made by Tanwen Whitefire is true, I have very little knowledge about Tae Kwon Do and I was too lazy to actually research anything about it…please don't kill me! Let's just pretend that they can do flips in Tae Kwon Do…because I'll be need that move for future chapters. Thanks for reading this story! And don't worry it is an (AthrunxCagalli fic!)
FBG: After you read this chapter, the musical preformace of the season will be preformed! It's called!U.P: Dun Dun Da Dunnnnnnnn!

Chapter 10: Athrun Saves the Day
"WHAT IN THE NAME OF EGGNOG IS GOING ON HERE!" screeched Athrun as he came running out of his room, wearing nothing but his boxers, today they had a pattern of French fries all over them.
"Good morning dude!" said Kira giving Athrun a salute with his spoon. He was busy eating Frosted Flakes.
Athrun growled, "Who said you could eat MY Frosted Flakes!"
"Athrun you have another two whole unopened boxes in the cupboard, relax!" said Yzak rolling his eyes, when it comes to his cereal Athrun can be like an overprotective mother.
He turned around grumbling something about friends stealing food and went into the bathroom.
"Kira," said Dearka, "I suggest if you wish to make Athrun happy you buy him a new box of Frosted Flakes."
Kira laughed, "If he loves his Frosted Flakes that much he should marry it."
"I don't think he will," replied Yzak, "I don't think he wants everyone to get the impression that he's gay since Tony the Tiger is a male and all."
They all started laughing; it's not everyday Yzak Jule makes a joke and a good one at that. Athrun came out of the bathroom wearing a large black t-shirt and his French Fry Boxers.
"So Kira I assume you're here to tell me when my next date is? Although I'm not looking forward to it seeing that my last two were COMPLETE, I repeat, COMPLETE disasters," said Athrun grouchily, pouring some cereal into a bowl.
"Maybe for you," replied Kira happily, "but for me your disasters will be bonus marks!"
"Ha ha ha," replied Athrun sarcastically, "So funny!"
"Yeah," replied Kira, "Anyways your date is with Tanya Morgan today. You'll be going to Cosmic Bowl, the bowling alley."
"Which one of your obscure family member owns it this time?" asked Dearka, he like everyone else could not fathom the amount of family Kira has.
Kira chuckled patting Dearka on the back, "It happens to be owned by my dad's friend. So this time it isn't an obscure family member. Sorry Dearka."
"Bowling eh?" said Athrun, "I'm sure nothing can go wrong…"
"Just in case," said Dearka, "I'll be going there with Miriallia, so if you need back up you have us."
Yzak added thoughtfully, "Maybe I could ask Cagalli to come too…"
At this statement; Kira bit down on his spoon to hard yelping loudly in pain and Athrun ended up overflowing his bowl with too much milk. Dearka didn't react, pretending as if he didn't hear anything. Yzak looked at them funny, "Is something wrong?"
"Nothing," they replied simultaneously, although both Kira and Athrun did with slightly grinding teeth.
Athrun was now wearing a grey mask with a green line around the edges; his outfit was a simple pair of Levis Jeans and Calvin Klein polo. His shoes were silver basketball Adidas.
"Bowling..." muttered Athrun adjusting his mask, he was wondering how Kira managed to think up such ridiculous ideas, this date better turn out good or I will personally murder Kira…not even…I will torture and THEN murder Kira!
"Hi Mr. Mystery," said a girl standing by the entrance, she was blonde and quite attractive but she seemed very, bouncy.
"And you must be Tanya I presume," replied Athrun, she nodded, he gave her fingers a gentle kiss and she started to giggle, blushing,
"Let's enter shall we?" he said, Tanya immediately latched on this arm, Athrun groaned mentally, why do girls ALWAYS have to grab my arm for! My poor arm…
"Hey that lane's empty let's take it!" she half dragged him over to an empty bowling lane. Athrun turned looking around, hoping to see Dearka and Mir somewhere. He saw them; they were two lanes down the right from where he was. He saw Dearka pitching is ball, it went straight into the gutter, Athrun chuckled, but his smile vanished when he saw the next bowler. Her blonde hair caught the bright lights beautifully and she skillfully gave herself a strike, Cagalli…
He saw her run over and give a silver haired guy a high five, he growled, the feeling of contempt rising.
"Are you okay?" he turned around, Tanya looked at the masked man with worry etched on her face, he smiled, "Yeah I'm fine. You wanna play?"
"Sure," she smiled; they put on their shoes and started to play. The game was going quite well for Athrun managed to get two strikes all ready. He beamed.
"You're really good!" exclaimed Tanya who was quite a poor player; she added more seductively, "I wouldn't mind some pointers…"
Athrun turned a little pink; as he stood behind Tanya trying to teach her how to properly aim the ball. It went quite well and they both decided to continue after some lunch. Athrun order a small pizza and he listened to her talk while he ate, his eyes glancing towards Dearka's group every spare moment. He saw Cagalli laughing; she looks so pretty when she laughs…ATHRUN ZALA! SLAP YOURSELF!
Athrun's hand automatically slapped his head quite hard, Tanya quickly asked him, "Are you okay!"
"What? Oh yeah, I'm fine," he replied lightly, "I just remembered I forgot to send a rather important e-mail but its okay. I can deal with it later."
"Are you sure?" asked Tanya, "I mean if you want to do it now…"
Athrun shook his head, "No, no. It's okay really. You wanna practice some more?"
Tanya nodded, "Alright, sure."
He started practicing with her, things were going really well. Athrun was actually starting to believe that this date will end with no disastrous occurrences but unfortunately he thought too soon.
"Tanya? Is that you!" said a voice loudly from behind them. Tanya turned around, her eyes growing dark, "What do YOU want Butch!"
Behind them stood a rather short bulky figure, he wore jeans and a t-shirt and had ridiculously large square glasses. He was looking at Tanya rather hopefully but when he caught sight of Athrun his eyes darkened, he asked him accusingly, "What are you doing here with MY girlfriend!"
Athrun gulped, although this guy was much shorter then his, six foot two stature, he felt sure that this guy would probably beat him up bad.
"I told you Butch! I am NOT YOUR GIRLFRIEND!" shrieked Tanya, crossing her arms over her chest, "What are you doing here anyway!"
"I work here," replied Butch and then he added, "and I told you Tanya! There was nothing going on between me and Marcy! I was tutoring her!"
"Don't lie to me!" said Tanya almost crying now, there was quite an audience starring, Athrun felt his cheeks go red with embarrassment, "I saw that girl on top of you!"
"She made a move on me! I didn't ask for it!" replied Butch, looking rather upset himself, "I swear to god Tanya! I was never, NEVER unfaithful to you!"
Tanya was crying now, "Then why didn't you say anything before!"
"Because I didn't know what to do, I thought you'd never speak to me again. But all I want is you back Tan! I love you! I NEED you Tan!" replied Butch; he stepped closer to Tanya who shied away. Athrun noticed Sai and Kuzzey filming from the eating area. He sighed and turned to Tanya and said, "Look, I think what Butch here is saying is true. He looks sincere and he knows what he wants. Just give him another chance."
"You won't be mad," she asked looking at Athrun through tear streaked eyes. He shook his head, "No. He needs you more then I ever would."
Butch looked at Tanya hopefully and gave Athrun a small smile of appreciation, Tanya started to bawl now and ran into her boyfriend's arms, "I'm SO SORRY BUTCH!"
"It's okay," he replied soothingly, he turned to Athrun, "Thanks man. I appreciate it. You know this was the first time I met Tanya, right in this lane. I really hope the luck it gave us shines on you."
"Thanks," replied Athrun walking away, he turned and smiled at them, "I wish you guys luck."
As Athrun walked away, he didn't notice the look of admiration in the amber eyes of a girl holding a bright emerald green bowling ball.
