Description: Okay, I've been doing a lot of AU's to go with my original character fanfics. Like, A Lovely Mess, for one, now this.
Another what if that has to do with my fascination with destiny:
What if Akira was not a Gundam pilot and never met any of the G-boys or Haruki? Well, for one thing, she cuts her hair and gets glasses (it makes her look much younger)! But if her destiny is with Quatre, how will she meet him.
A surprisingly brief first meeting, an even more surprising second meeting, an almost trip around the world, and a chance romance make for a cute multi-chapter fic. Enjoy!
Chapter three: Coincidence
" Alright Duo, thank you." Umeko said before hanging up the phone.
" What was that about?" Akira asked, coming out after taking a shower and changing her clothes.
" That was Duo. You up for a double date tonight?" Umeko asked.
" Date? I thought you said you and Duo had nothing going on?" Akira put on her Butterfly necklace.
" We don't. I just tell him how to keep his girlfriend from dumping him and he tries to set my little sister up." Umeko said.
" He has a girlfriend?" Akira asked in disbelief. " Boy, do I feel sorry for her."
" Oh, she keeps him in line." Umeko smirked. " So, how about it?"
" No," Akira said " Whenever you set me up with someone, it ends up being a disaster!"
" But I'M not setting you up, Duo is." Umeko protested.
" Oh, that makes me feel so much better." Akira said, sarcastically. " Besides, I don't have time for this bullshit. I've had a rough day and I just want to rest now." Akira sighed, thinking about running into one of the richest guys in the universe. Why was that sticking in her mind so much?
'Duh,' Akira thought to herself. 'Because he's one of the richest guys in the universe.'
" Wow, you're sure being a moody little bitch today!" Umeko laughed
Akira just ignored her and opened up her bag.
" Hey," Akira flipped through the few items of clothing that were there. " Where's...Everything!!!"
Akira dumped out the contents of the bag and rummaged through them.
" Oh, shit!" Akira froze.
" What's wrong?" Umeko asked.
" I left my other bag at the airport in L.A.!!!"
Quatre looked out the window of the preventers apartment him and Duo were staying at for their 'mission'. He flipped the frames of the broken glasses on the table. It was just an ugly reminder of how he was the scum of the universe.
' I just broke a stupid pair of glasses, but I feel like I stole candy from a baby. Why do I feel so bad?' Quatre looked at the frames carefully. 'Then again, they do look pretty expensive...'
" Oh, okay, no problem...No, I totally understand...Bye." Duo hung up the phone and Quatre looked at him.
" Dinner's off. Seems little sis lost one of her luggage bags." Duo said.
Quatre sighed with relief. He just wanted to call in quits for the night. Too much emotional distress.
" Well, I'm gonna go over there. Umeko got some new movies and wants to order pizza. You wanna come?" Duo asked.
" No, I'm pretty tired and I smell bad. I think I'll stay here." Quatre said.
" Are you sure, she's really hot." Duo smiled.
" Yeah, I'm sure." Quatre said, nodding.
" Well, if you want to come, they're in apartment 21 upstairs. See ya!" Duo flung on a jacket and went out the door.
" Later, Duo." Quatre sighed and held his head, which started throbbing with pain.
" What did I do now?" Quatre asked his head.
Akira flipped her necklace through her fingers over and over. Something was deeply wrong, she could feel it. Some force was trying to tell her something.
" Are you okay, 'Kira?" Umeko asked
" Yeah, I'm just a little tired." Akira said, smiling slightly.
Then, a knock came at the door.
" Oh yeah, I forgot to tell you, I invited them over for movies and pizza. That okay?" Umeko asked, pleadingly.
" Fine," Akira said, deciding not to even bother to fight.
She looked at the doorway as the door opened, expecting to see two guys. But, she only saw Duo.
" Where's your friend?" Umeko asked.
" Oh, he decided to stay, he had a long day." Duo said.
' I can relate...' Akira groaned to herself.
A few hours later into the movie marathon, Duo and Umeko were talking to each other, not even paying attention to the movie. Akira wasn't quite listening, but she just figured that she was giving him advice on his girlfriend again.
Akira tried to watch the movie in the dark. Yet, her mind kept slipping into earlier that day and making her depressed.
' You just ran into some rich guy, that's all...but, still, rich or not, he was human... but, he didn't seem to be hurt...Then, why do I have the urge to find him and apologize over and over again?...You're talking to the wrong side of the brain for that!' Akira mentally argued with herself.
" Um, excuse me guys, I need to get some fresh air. I'll be on the roof." Akira said before walking out.
She sighed when she closed the door behind her, then shook her head and headed for the elevator. She pressed the button and waited. After a bit, she got tired of waiting and headed for the stairs. As she went up the first steps she heard the beep of the elevator.
" Figures..." Akira murmured to herself and continued up.
Quatre took a shower and, after a while, got bored of sitting in a room by himself. He got up to go join Duo and his friends. He went out and locked up, then went over to the elevator and pushed the button. It opened immeadiately.
" At least something's going right today..." Quatre muttered.
He stopped from walking in as he saw two people come down the hall. It was a brown haired guy and a blonde haired girl with glasses. He watched them walk by him without even noticing he was staring at them. The girl reminded him of 'luggage girl'. That was his name for her now, since they only crossed paths because she had some luggage stolen. For some reason, Quatre couldn't help but see himself next to that girl in his mind. As the couple disappeared around the corner, Quatre shook his head and got his mind back. He was just in time to shove his arm in front of the closing elevator door, so he could get in. When the elevator reached the second floor, he stepped out and started looking for room 21. He jumped as he heard the door to the stairs swing shut. He decided that someone must have just gone out the doors and calmed down. Then, he decided that someone must have been waiting for the elevator and he kept them waiting too long. He concluded that he had once again caused someone troubles and felt bad.
" I guess I spoke too soon." Quatre found apartment 21 and knocked on the door. Umeko answered and let him in.
" I knew you'd come over, Quatre." Duo said, smiling, " But you just missed Umeko's sis. She went to the roof."
" Yeah, I don't think 'Kira's feeling too well." Umeko said.
" Hmm," Quatre sat down. 'She must have felt me coming...'
Akira looked down at the busy street by the apartment building and sighed.
" A busy Friday night in England..." She said to herself, " I should really be more excited about being here, I mean, it's beautiful."
Akira looked up at the vast field of city lights, admiring it for the first time.
" I guess...I can stay up here for a bit..." Akira smiled.
Pretty soon, the movie was over. Of course, Quatre had missed most of it, but he didn't care. He was just happy to try and get his mind off of things.
Then, there was a ring on the phone and Umeko picked it up.
" Um, Duo, it's for you...It's Haruki..." Umeko winked.
Duo picked up the phone.
" Any idea what she wants?" Quatre asked.
" I think she wants you guys back soon." Umeko said.
" Yeah, we need to leave tomorrow anyways." Quatre nodded, then yawned. " It's getting late, I'm going to head back. Tell Duo I left for me, will ya?"
" Sure thing. I'm sorry you couldn't meet my sister, she's really sweet." Umeko smiled.
" Maybe some other time." Quatre smiled back and waved as he went out the door.
Akira yawned as she went down the last couple of steps. The day had just sucked all the energy out of her. Then, she came upon an approaching figure. It looked just like Quatre.
' No way, I'm just tired. Besides, why would he be here without his protectors?' Akira thought to herself.
Quatre looked ahead and saw...no way, Luggage Girl? He blinked a few times before he was certain it looked just like her. They came up until they were just a few yards apart. Both of them blinked.
" It's you..." Quatre said in disbelief.
" Oh...yeah..." Akira blushed " About today...I'm really, really sorry about bumping into you...I'm so sorry..."
Akira bowed and ran off.
" Wait! Wait I... oh, damn..." Quatre gave up as she disappeared down the hall. " She'd think I was completely crazy if I went chasing after her."
Akira went into her and her sister's apartment and closed the door, sighing.
" What's wrong with me?" She asked herself, " I think I'm just worrying too much about such a little thing. It must be all the stress of moving away from home, yeah, that's probably what it is."
" Totally, I mean, it's making you talk to yourself and all." Umeko was leaning towards Akira, resting her elbows on the arm of the couch.
" You stay out of this..." Akira grumbled and dragged her feet off to her room.
Umeko looked her sister up and down, but left her alone. She was never like this. Not even when she so obviously had her heart broken. She was always in a cheery, sweet mood.
Akira took off her shoes and changed into her pajamas.
" Well, at least I have these." She said, remembering her lost bag.
She plopped down on her bed and closed her eyes, but quickly opened them again.
" Wait a second..." Akira held her mouth. ' Why was he in this apartment? What are the odds that someone you met in L.A., would show up at the exact same apartment you were occupying in Wales? Did he follow me?... No, of course not! But, why would Quatre R. Winner be here, anyway. This doesn't make any sense!'
Akira used her hand to thump her head, repeatedly.
" I just hope I never see him again."
Quatre sighed as he looked at the broken pair of glasses on the table.
" Maybe I should give those back to her..." Quatre smirked at the thought of seeing her again. " Maybe she'll let me talk this time."
Then, Quatre frowned to himself. He had a schedule to keep. That's why he cancelled lunch with Umeko's sister. He felt a little guilty about being distracted all day and not even seeing her.
" Why would Luggage Girl want to see ME again, anyways? I smashed her glasses and she was so apologetic about just bumping into me. I don't even know her name. Besides, people bump into each other all the time and never see each other again." Quatre tried to convince himself.
" Then again, I DID see her again..." Quatre shook his head, then looked over at his luggage.
" Wait, I thought I only had TWO bags." Quatre walked over and looked at the tag. " Akira Satashi, huh? Wonder who that is? Oh, there's a phone number..."
To be continued...
Hahahahaha...
Join Sup-kit next time as we watch these two fuss over a little thing called love.
Next time:
' What a terrible way to start off my morning!' Akira looked down and saw... The Suitcase!
She quickly picked it up and checked the tag. It was hers!
" Umeko!" Akira whispered, happily. " It's my bag!"
" What!? What's it doing here!?" Umeko asked.
" I don't know, but it's here!" Akira hugged the bag.
" Well, just check it for anything dangerous before you do anything..." Umeko said, not sure of what to think of the coincidence. Well, maybe she didn't really leave it in L.A.. With Akira, you could never tell.
