CHAPTER10

Athrun Zala opened his eyes, feeling the warmth of his bed surrounding him. But after a few seconds, he immediately closed it once more, The alcohol's effect, finally settling in. The blue haired boy cursed at himself for allowing himself to get so drunk.

While his head felt like it was ripping apart in two, he looked around and was glad that he was in his room. It seems as if he magically found himself back home. The last he remembered was sitting on his chair back at the office.

With his head still throbbing, he was about to step off the bed when he felt something move beside him.

His eyes widened upon seeing a tousle of red hair just inches away from him.

On the 29th of October, Every newspaper read the same headline:

"Songstress weds ORB Commander:The Wedding of the Year"

"Wedding of the year?" Cagalli giggled as she playfully slapped her nervous brother's arm. They were inside the Clyne Mansion in ORB, waiting for the ceremony to start.

Kira, although very nervous, laughed along with his sister; glad that she was finally going back to her old self. A month before, when she first visited the PLANTs ( since Athrun became chairman), she came home and was quiet for a week. But afterwards, she turned back to her old self again. And for this, he was glad.

But Kira knew that Cagalli wasn't the least bit over Athrun Zala. He knew because the blonde girl refused to find out about any information regarding the said man. She didn't watch news anymore and merely relied on Kisaka's reports to find out the latest events. When she read newspapers, the maids deliberately hid the section where the PLANTs was highlighted. If the headline was about the PLANTs, they didn't even bother giving her the newspaper.

It seemed that everyone was willing to help her get over Athrun.

So it bothered him that Athrun was still invited to their wedding amidst the circumstances-He didn't have the guts to tell Cagalli since he knew that it would only make her uncomfortable right from the start of the wedding.

Shunning those thoughts away, he smiled at his younger sibling. "With Lacus keeping our relationship private from the media for all these years, this is just the scoop all the paparazzi are waiting to get." He sighed afterwards, realizing that the tabloids would have a field day.

"Anyways, I'm really happy for you two." She smiled at him, giving her brother a hug-surprising the brown haired groom. "Don't do anything stupid to hurt Lacus or I'll kill you." she said with her gentlest voice, making her brother shudder.

"It's my wedding day and you're threatening me?" He chuckled as they both withdrew from the hug. "You're actually less scary when you're making your threats wearing that." He pointed to the pink cocktail dress that Cagalli wore-the dress Lacus forced her to wear as her maid of honor.

She blushed as she gave him a punch on the shoulder. She couldn't help it-she wasn't used to wearing such a dress! It reached a few inches below her knee-much too short for her taste. And not only that, she had to endure wearing the strapless pink dress for the whole ceremony! She was glad Lacus allowed her to put her (now) long hair down to cover her bare shoulders.

"I hate this dress..." She sighed, glad that Lacus was not around to hear it.

"It suits you." Kira simply smiled at her before giving her a smile. "You'll get guys swooning over you through the whole reception."

"I hope not." She merely replied whilst looking at the busy preparation happening outside.

"Mr. Yamato?" A voice came from outside their door. Cagalli saw Kira gulp. But before he could stand up, she grabbed his arm and smiled at him once again, giving it a gentle squeeze. "Congratulations."

Kira smiled back as he pulled in Cagalli for a hug. "Thanks sis."

"CONGRATULATIONS!" Dearka Elsman shouted on the microphone whilst he opened a champagne bottle near the stage. He had just finished giving his best wishes to the couple who were seated at a table glamorously decorated right on top of the stage; in front of them were many tables filled with guests. Lacus giggled as Kira affectionately kissed her cheek.

Cagalli smile at the scene. She had never seen Kira look so happy before.

She was sitting on the table alone-since Mirialia joined Dearka in his greeting and Kisaka disappeared to get them some drinks. She didn't want to move around too much though-she didn't want to face her advisors during such a festive occasion.

Her attention then turned towards a crowd forming near the Clyne Mansion's entrance. several cameras appeared to be flashing uncontrollably. She even heard squeals coming from several girls who wer tiptoeing to get a view of the said guest. "Who's that..?" She mumbled, just enough for the waiter beside her to hear.

"I think it's the PLANTs Chairman Ms. Attha. 'Cause the guards were scurrying around a while a ago." The waiter explained as he placed a drink on her table.

After nodding the guy a 'thanks', Cagalli turned her attention back to the crowd once again. Her heart pounded at the thought of seeing Athrun after their last meeting in the PLANTs. Words were said and she knew that she had intentionally hurt him.

But before she could think further, the crowd started nearing where she sat-it seemed that he would be passing her way. She was bracing herself in case they were to exchange formalities. He wouldn't dare cause a scene by ignoring the Representative of ORB.

After a few seconds, he finally came to view.

Athrun Zala was standing right in front of her.

And just as expected, he gave her a smile, extending a hand in courtesy. "Good Evening Representative Attha."

Cagalli took his hand and greeted him back. She felt warmth with his touch-as if nothing bad had ever happened between them. "It's nice seeing you Chairman Zala." She smiled back. Several people were watching them as the ceremony continued.

Both suddenly turned their heads when they heard bawling coming from the stage-it seemed that Mu La Flaga was taking the entire spotlight away from them as he dramatically wished Kira and Lacus all the best.

The two leaders chuckled at this, glad that the atmosphere lightened a bit. "He was always dramatic, that guy." He grinned while looking back at Cagalli, fond memories of his time in ORB slowly coming back.

"Yeah." Cagalli giggled, looking back at Athrun comfortably. "So how are you-"

"Athrun?" She heard a voice behind her. mid-sentence. Before she could turn her head, someone walked past by her from behind and grasped Athrun's hand.

Cagalli could only stare at the intertwined fingers right in front of her. As she looked up, she couldn't help but feel her insides turn.

Right beside Athrun, with a smile on her face as she gave him a kiss on the cheek; was Meyrin Hawke.

She looked at Athrun, who was merely smiling back at Meyrin- with the same smile that he once only gave her.

Upon realizing that Cagalli was still in front of them, Athrun looked at the ORB leader with a smile, his hand still in Meyrin's. "Cagalli, meet my fiancée, Meyrin Hawke."

The red haired girl greeted her with a smile before cooing at Athrun towards the stage where Lacus and Kira were waiting for his best wishes. Athrun gave Cagalli a glance before excusing himself, disappearing into the crowd with Meyrin right next to him.

Cagalli could only watch Athrun's back as he walked away with another hand in his.

And as she felt her heart slowly breaking, she realized...

That perfect person, more often than not...

is the same person who you foolishly let go.

She still wants you to be hers

On the 29th of October, Every newspaper in the PLANTs also read the same headline:

"An Early Birthday Gift: Chairman Zala's Fiancée Pregnant."

Obviously, this is the bad ending! :) I hope you liked (though I know you HATED the thought) of this chapter~!

I'll be posting the happy ending pretty soon :)!

I think I'll be expecting lot's of Meyrin hate after this~ :))
