Chapter 11

Cagalli leaned back on the tree and sighed, wiping away the tears that were falling down her cheeks with the back of her sleeve. Her thoughts and senses were filled with the words from the letter. She felt confused and a little upset with herself for acting and treating Athrun that way, and too hurt him so bad.

She picked up the box that rested on her lap and slowly opened the box. Inside was a beautiful tear-drop shaped emerald with diamonds surrounding the stone and it was on a thin silver band. On the inner ring there is an engraving and it read,

I love you my angel.

After reading the engraving Cagalli put her head in her knees and started crying. In her mind she lulled over the words Athrun had wrote and the ring and how stupid she felt. She placed the ring back into the box and closed it back up.

"I can't believe I was so stupid." She thought to herself as her grip on the box in her hand tightened. Folding up the letter, she got up off the ground and started walking towards where Yunna and Asagi were.

'I have to go.' Was all she said then she broke out in a run and headed out of the park leaving no room for argument. She ran out the gates of the park and down the road tat leads straight towards the manor. As she was running she noticed everyone was staring at her but she couldn't care less.

When she got within five feet of the gates to the manor she gripped the box and walked straight up to the guard at the gate.

'I wish to see Prince Athrun. It's very urgent.' She said in a polite but firm tone, indicating it was serious. The guard looked up at her and saw the letter and box in her right hand.

'You must be Miss Cagalli. My prince told me to let you in if you came. Go straight in and a maid will assist you.' He said opening the gate, making a slight bow as she walked through the gate. He closed it and watched her retreating shadow heading towards the door.

'Be kind to him, fair maiden.' He whispered, closing the gate tightly. When Cagalli made it to the doors she pushed one open and looked around for a maid. She could hear voices coming from down a corridor so she let her feet follow the sound. She barely made it four steps from the door when a maid stepped out in front of her.

'Please follow me miss.' She said with a smile. The maid turned and led her through a set of doors that lead out in the courtyard that joined to the gardens out the back. They crossed the courtyard out into the garden and the maid stopped. She looked over shoulder at Cagalli and pointed out to the figure that Cagalli knew all too well.

Cagalli stared at the figure while the maid snuck away quietly to leave the two of them alone.

The breeze blew through the trees and caused Cagalli to shiver. She studied Athrun's clothing for a second. He had a navy blue coat on that went down to his knees, white pants and black boots. She couldn't see his top but she guessed it was white. Either way he looked gorgeous.

Summoning up any and all courage she had left in her she slowly walked towards him, forcing down all her nerves and senses that told her to turn and run. She walked down the path until she was about six feet behind him. She stopped and her shoes dragged on the gravel, telling Athrun someone was there. His hand went to the handle on his waist and he drew it pointing it straight at Cagalli's neck, not knowing it was her.

His eyes widen at the sight of her and his hand froze in place, the sword still pointing at her neck. Cagalli's face remained cold and didn't change even with the sword pointing at her.

Instead her eyes narrowed and she crossed her arms across her chest.

'So you're going to kill me? Shouldn't I be the one doing that?' She asked, in a warning tone, giving the hint that she was already ticked off at him when in fact it was an act. He stared at her in shock for a few seconds but slowly lowered his sword and it dropped from his hand to the ground with a loud clunk. He looked down at the sword for a second then raised his gaze back up to Cagalli.

'I didn't think I'd ever see you again.' He said, tears running down his cheek bones and down his cheeks. Athrun would have taken a step forward but Cagalli's glare kept him stone cold to his spot.

'I came, because I need to know your feelings. Not just through a letter. It's just a piece of paper and words to me. Do you mean them?' She said sharply, pulling the letter out of her pocket. Athrun looked at the letter, then back at Cagalli, with a slightly shocked expression.

'I didn't think you'd read it.' He said lowly. She almost didn't hear what he said.

'I was curious to know what you had to say for yourself.' Cagalli said, leaning back on her left leg. She shivered slightly from a gust of wind, and rubbed her hands up and down her arms trying to get warm. Athrun noticed, and stepped forward taking off his coat. He placed it on her shoulders and she looked up at him.

'Cagalli, I…I didn't want any of this to happen. I should have stopped Mia but I couldn't. I'm so sorry Cagalli.' Athrun said, tears streaming down his face. Cagalli kept the strong gaze on him for a second, as if looking for a fault, showing her he didn't mean it.

'What about Mia? What are you going to do about that?' She asked bluntly, feeling her insides churn with the mention of the name.

'She's gone, for good. You and I will never have to see her again. I promise.' He replied. His voice strong and determined. Cagalli looked into his eyes for a minute searching for anything to show he was lying.

When she saw he was being truthful she felt slightly guilty for doubting the man in front of her, who was crying because of her. Cagalli took a few steps forward closing the gap between them and she raised a hand and put it to his cheek.

'I'm sorry to Athrun. I over reacted and didn't let you explain.' She said tears forming in her eyes. She rubbed her thumb along his cheek, wiping away the tears. She bought his face down to hers and rested her forehead on his. She looked into his eyes with no hate or anger and smiled through the tears.

Athrun wrapped his arms around her waist, loving the warmth her hand was giving.

'I love you Cagalli, my angel.' Athrun said, smiling warmly down at her. Cagalli smiled back and wrapped her arms around Athrun's neck.

'I love you too, my red knight.' She said, sealing their words with a passionate kiss.

And there these two stood, wrapped in each other and their new found love. Nothing would tear them apart.

1 month later

'Cagalli, you look stunning.' Lacus said her hands clasped under her chin. Cagalli turned around from the mirror and faced Lacus with a beautiful smile. Today was her wedding day and she looked every bit the beautiful bride.

Instead of traditional white for her gown, Cagalli opted for ivory silk. The dress was floor length and slim shaped with a gold silk belt and broach around the waist. In Cagalli's hair, several pink cherry blossoms were arranged in a crown shape. No make up was used and she still looked gorgeous.

Lacus stepped forward in her baby pink fitted gown. A white flower was pinned to the right shoulder of her dress and her long hair was braided into a bun. In her hands she had two bouquets of flowers made up from her garden. She handed one to Cagalli who accepted it and smelled the fragrance.

Lacus smiled at the expression on Cagalli's face. She was so happy for her and Athrun. After all that had happened they could finally be happy and live a happy life together.

'Cagalli, it's time.' Lacus said, placing a gentle hand on her shoulder. Cagalli took a deep, calming breath before nodding with a smile.

'Let's go.' Cagalli said. The two walked out of the room and down the corridor towards the courtyard. The two stood in front of the French doors and Cagalli could see Athrun standing under the arch way at the end of the path. He was wearing his military uniform which consisted of a deep red dress coat with a white shirt underneath with the collar turned up. He was also wearing black pants and black dress shoes.

All in all, he looked gorgeous.

He stood there rubbing his knuckles in a nervous jitter. Every three seconds he checked the doors, waiting for Cagalli and Lacus to walk out so he could see his beautiful bride. He looked around at the people sitting in front of him. They were having a small ceremony, with a few friends and what family Athrun had left.

Suddenly the doors opened and Lacus walked down the aisle towards Athrun and stood opposite him. She smiled at him and turned her gaze to where Cagalli now stood. Athrun look over his shoulder and slow turned around in awe. The wind blew gently, flicking her hair from side to side, catching the sunlight.

'Athrun, you ok?' Kira asked, placing a hand on his shoulder.

'Yeah, she just… she's gorgeous.' He replied smiling gently at Cagalli. She smiled back and started walking slowly, carefully stepping on the uneven ground. A few times she felt like she was going to trip but Athrun saw her struggling and came forward and took her hand to guide her.

'I could have managed.' She said, smiling gently. She didn't mind him coming to help her at all but she really could have managed on her own.

'I don't mind. I can't have you tripping over.' He replied tugging her hand to start walking. The pair walked towards the arch way and stood side by side as the priest came forward.

'Shall we begin?' The priest asked, looking from Athrun to Cagalli.

'Yes please.' Cagalli said, feeling slightly nervous. And it showed through her voice.

'Very well then.' The priest said, cough a few times to clear his throat.

'Ladies and Gentlemen, we have gathered here today, to Join Athrun Zala and Cagalli Yula in marriage. I won't bother to ask if anyone objects to this joyous union because to be honest, I won't accept any. So ill get straight to the point. Do you Athrun Zala take Cagalli Yula to be your wife?'

'I do.' He answered, smiling widely at Cagalli.

'And do you Cagalli Yula; take Athrun Zala to be your husband?'

'I do.'

'The rings.' With those words said, Kira stepped forward and handed Athrun and Cagalli a gold band each. They both faced each other and smiled brightly as Athrun placed the band carefully on her ring finger. Cagalli breathed deeply, holding back the tears that threatened to spill as she reached for his left hand. She placed the ring on his ring finger and held his hand between both of hers.

'Under this joyous sun we bless this happy couple to the future. Their vows of commitment and loyalty have been spoken in the eyes of the lord. May their love be pure and strong. You may now kiss the bride.' The priest said, smiling at both Athrun and Cagalli.

Athrun wrapped his arms around Cagalli's waist and smiled down at her before placing his lips over hers, sealing their fate. Cagalli's hands rested on Athrun's shoulders as the broke apart smiling brightly.

'I love you my wife.'

'I love you my husband.
