DISCLAIMER- I do not own Gundam Seed or Gundam Seed Destiny

It has been over a month since Lacus and Kira were re-united. They finished their touring of the PLANTS and raised well over 5 million dollars in total. They are now all back on Earth, and Kira is staying with Lacus in her mansion. He got a pretty large room right next door to hers, but they've never really slept together. It's like there's still a invisible wall that needs to be scaled before that can happen. Kira wasn't complaining though, he was actually happy, in years. The last time he felt joy like this was the time he spent with Lacus at the orphanarium. The orphanarium closed, since all the children were adopted thanks to Lacus' efforts, and now she could focus on worldwide issues. Kira got his old car back, and was surprised it wasn't towed away after sitting there a whole year. Lacus and Kira were dating, and were now official boyfriend and girlfriend. It was all over the news, when Kira and Lacus went to Southern Australia to help out. And Kira started a scrap book of their time together. He had a picture of him and Lacus in safari gear touring the plains in Australia in a jeep, the both of them posing in ancient Chinese robes, as well as numerous other things that have happened. Kira caught up with his friends, and learned he missed a lot of things. Tolle and Kuzzey started working at Clyne Inc. since they worked on Project Gundam as well. Yzack had enlisted himself in the ORB pilot team to go explore Mars in his own custom Mobile Suit, made specifically with Duel's data, which made it melee orientated. Dearakka and Miri were starting up their own Newspaper business, while Cagalli and Athrun got engaged. Life seemed to be going real smooth for everyone, but it was going to go bumpy.

Somewhere else...

" Damnit! Curse that stupid kid. Him and his OS... " Jibril began muttering to himself.' Ever since that expo, things have been going wrong. With the OS Clyne got, now he is making a profit and out of debt. Plus, I wasted a ass load of cash on that crappy Neutron thing. And now, his precious daughter is back with that punk. If they tie the knot, and he starts helping Clyne Inc. , there's going to be trouble for me. I spent the last 3 years trying to take over Clyne Inc. , things were going according to plan, until that stupid kid appeared. If he didn't give that old fart the OS, then I would already have that pink haired bitch and own that crappy company. And our Neutron OS was completely overlooked by ORB, ZAFT, and the EAF. I wasted so much money on that shit too! ' Jibril was getting angry now, the more he thought of it, the more he hated that stupid kid who ruined his plan. He suddenly got a plan, a twisted plan, that broke so many laws, he could end up getting charged for life in jail if he was caught, but it was the perfect plan. So he grabbed his phone and called his secretary- " I want you to schedule a meeting with someone for me,on Thursday, her and make sure she comes,her name is Meer Campbell." He hung up and started to look at his company's sales on his computer. And then started to snicker at the thoughts of how his plan would work.

Sunday,2:40, Clyne Mansion

It was Sunday, and Kira was waiting for Lacus. He was dressed casually, in a dark black shirt, and long pants with the same color. It was something Lacus gave him when he moved in. She told him that he looked good in it, so he chose to wear this one on the date. After a few minutes of waiting, Lacus came downstairs, Kira thought he was going to have to get an inhaler. Lacus was wearing an green sundress that went down to her knees. She was wearing the hair clip Kira gave her, as well as a pair of jade earrings.

" You look beautiful " Kira complimented while getting up.
" You don't look half bad yourself, Kira. " she replied while choosing what shoes to wear.
" So wear are we going today? " Lacus asked
" I didn't tell you yet? " Kira said trying to sound surprised
" Alright Mister, I'll give you till the count of three to tell me where we're going or I'm not going. " Lacus teased
" You sure you want to know? It'll ruin the surprise... " Kira pretended to wimper
" Oh alright... " Lacus pouted

When they got to the car, Kira opened the door for Lacus, and she saw something she just couldn't believe, on the seat. A pink rose flower sat on the seat, and Kira reached for it and took off her hair clip. Then he replaced it with the flower and smiled at her.

" The place we're going to today is probably going to make you lose that clip. So it's better to wear this instead. And besides, you look even cuter with it on. " Kira began to get in himself when he heard her reply.
" Thanks Kira.. " and she blushed as she sat down.

Kira unrolled the cover and soon it was in convertible mode. The wind was cool and nice that day. And the breeze made Lacus' hair flow with the wind.' God she's cute. ' Kira thought, and began imagining some things until he slapped himself mentally telling himself to control himself better. When they were near their destination, Kira told Lacus to put on a blindfold.
" Aww.. is it really that big of a surprise? " Lacus asked now curious.
" Yes. " Kira said trying to hide his laughter
" Alright, but you better take it off when we arrive. Or else. " Lacus said slyly
" Or else what? " Kira responded playfully and when they arrived at a stop light he found out.
Lacus swiftly turned Kira's face with her right arm to face her, and gave him a quick but melting kiss." Or else you won't get that anymore. " Lacus giggled as she blindfolded herself.
" Hey! Your not playing fair. " Kira whined as he blushed
When they arrived, Kira helped Lacus out slowly, but she tripped over the handle on the seat, and was about to fall. Kira quickly manoeuvered himself so he'd be in front of her and when she fell, Kira took the bulk of the impact.
" Oh Kira are you ok?! " Lacus sounded concerned and was reaching for the blindfold when Kira stopped her.
" Don't take it off yet, we're not there yet. Besides, I think I'll keep it on if this'll happen again. " Kira joked
" Kiraaaaa... You promised. " Lacus imitated Lily and Quintin
" Alright, alright, just hold onto me and try not to get lost in the crowd. " Kira grinned since he knew she'd be happy to see where they were going.

Lacus leaned her head on his shoulder and wrapped her arms around his. Kira did likewise, but put his arms around from behind her waist. They both felt nervous and blushed, but they were now officially boyfriend and girlfriend, according to the news, and Kira wanted to make sure Lacus didn't get lost or worse.When they arrived at the place Kira wanted, he let go of Lacus.

" Alright, we're here. " Kira said as he took off the blindfold. " Oh my god! An amusement park! How did you know Kira? I've always wanted to go to one of them. " Lacus smiled looking at the giant roller coaster and merry go round.
' So thats why he told me to take off the hair clip ' she thought as she saw the triple loopdy loop the roller coaster performed.
" Come on Kira! I wanna go ride that first! " Lacus said dragging Kira towards the bumper cars.
The rest of the day was heaven for them both. Kira enjoyed spending time with Lacus and she was happy to be able to spend time with Kira, free of worries from the world. There was no paparazzi at such a small place, and it wouldn't seem odd to the common person to see a couple riding on rides and eating ice cream cones together. At last they had went on every ride, some twice even, and eaten everything from cotton candy to chocolate ice cream. Kira and Lacus were sitting on a bench looking up at the sky. It was already dark, and most of the rides stopped running, but Kira insisted on staying, and he chose such a desolate place, up on a hilly area. Then, before Lacus could ask why, she found out. Fireworks. Hundreds of fireworks went up, small ones, large ones, loud ones, quiet ones, colorful ones, unusual ones, every type imaginable began to appear in front of their eyes, Lacus watched in awe at the display, while Kira looked at her looking at the fireworks. The expression he saw that she had was alone worth the trouble of bringing her here blindfolded and kept in the dark. When the show stopped, Kira began to talk.

" So Lacs, did you enjoy my surprise? " Kira started to get ideas in his head. " Yes, it was so beautiful... " Lacus whispered
Kira leaned closer to her ears and told her something only she could hear- " Not half as beautiful as you are. "
Before she could respond, Kira gave her a kiss, surprising her, but she quickly adjusted and it soon became a passionate French Kiss, and soon that turned into making out. They kept on going for who knows how long, until Kira heard his cell phone ring, and unwillingly stopped the making out to answer, it was from Cagalli.

" Hey Romeo! Get your butt back here. Did you forget about the rest of us? " Cagalli screamed in his ear. Kira almost forgot the plan, and he quickly apolagized and closed the phone. " Let's get going Lacus. It's kinda late. " Kira said, trying not to get caught
Lacus thought something was up, but she didn't question him, and she felt something nagging her in the back of her head, but she just brushed it off.
" Alright, let's go back I guess. "
When they arrived back home, Kira stopped her before she got out of the car.
" Blindfold please Ms. Clyne. " Kira tried to sound like a bodyguard to make this more realistic.
Lacus sighed as she obeyed and put on the yellow blindfold and followed Kira's lead, and when he opened the door, Kira took it right off.


" SURPRISE! "

Lacus jumped with a start, only to fall on Kira's chest, and blush. Everyone was there, and the room was decorated with balloons, banners, and streamers. Lacus was confused what was going on until she saw the giant banner in the center that read- HAPPY BIRTHDAY.
Lacus turned around to see Kira grinning, at her and laughing at his own achievements. He kept her so busy the past week, she even forgot her birthday was coming up, and he distracted her all day today, while they det up the surprise.
" Happy Birthday Lacs. " Kira said smiling as he gave her the hair clip back.
' It seems different... ' Lacus thought.
" I guess you noticed it right? " Kira said, and then he began opening up the crescents. Each one of them held a picture, so in total, there were six pictures, each side of the opened moon had one. One was a picture of them in Australia in the jeep, another one was the chinese robes, casual in a park, one they just took an hour ago at the amusement park with Mason the Moose, then there was the picture they took at the beach, and finally, there was the one Miri took a year ago at Starbucks. Lacus was left speechless, she never knew her hairclip could open up and hold photos. She felt herself get emotional and eyes fill with tears all of a sudden. But before she could cry, something stopped her. Yet another kiss from Kira, but this one seemed more calm, relaxed, just as passionate, but softer and it seemed to have a more romantic air to this one. Somewhere during the middle, Kira swore he saw camera lights flashing, and he guessed it was Cagalli or Miri, but he didn't want to break the kiss just to yell at them. But when the kiss ended, everyone broke into applause, and then they started the party. They spent all night playing games like truth or dare, and Twister, as well as talking and eating.

When it came time for Lacus to blow out the candles, everyone gathered around the giant cake. " Cmon Lacus! You can do it! One blow! " Dearraka chanted " Don't listen to him. Just try your best. " Miri said shoving Dearraka aside. Kira stood behind her, and gave her a good luck nod, she took a deep breath, thought of a wish, and blew.

All the candles went out at once, and everyone cheered and Kuzzey handed her the knife. The cake was vanilla with fruits in the center, it was a tad sweet, but it was delicious. Everyone took a large chunk home, since they really couldn't fit it all in the fridge, and Kira didn't want to eat cake 3 meals a day the next day. When the party was over, everyone gone, and everything was cleaned up, Lacus and Kira collapsed on the couch, tired. Siegel had already turned in for the night, telling them to go get some rest once they cleaned up, so it was just Kira and Lacus. Kira knew what was next, he had to get Kira Express running again. He carefully scooped Lacus up in his arms, bridal style, and tried to carry her up the stairs. Doing this made Kira blush, but he knew that it was hard to get her on his back when she was lying down. When he put Lacus on her bed, he pulled the silky blankets over her, and gently kissed her on the head.

" Good night, birthday girl. " he whispered the tease and started to get out of the room, when he heard her talk in her sleep- " Kira, goodnight "
Kira was surprised that she responded, but he just thought it was sleep talk and brushed it off. He then took a quick shower and changed into boxers and went straight to bed, he was too tired to go online.' Just a while longer, and I'll show her my plans. ' he thought and he fell asleep, and started to dream about the events that just occurred that day.

I hope you've all enjoyed this chapter. Due to recent stressful and un-happy things, I've tried to make this chapter as light hearted as possible. I'm sorry that I had to add in the Jibril thing in, but getting to read about the party and surprise was worth seeing his ugly jackass mug for a few minutes, right? I just enabled anynnomas reviews, so sorry if you couldn't before. Remember to review and comment. Chapters will slow down from now, maybe to 1 or 2 chapters every day or three. I don't have much free time during weekdays, but during weekends, I'm free to spend as much time as I want on writing. I enjoyed reading your reviews, so keep it up!
