A Song For You

As she saw Kira run towards his Gundam, Lacus went back into the room and sit on the floor. She look at the pink ball and hold out her hand.

Lacus: Haro, come here.

Haro bounce and fall into her hands and the two covers onto on its head flap happily. Lacus smiled at him.

Lacus: Let's sing song, shall we, Haro?

Haro: "HARO!! I AGREE!! I AGREE!!!"

Then Lacus starts her song.

Song 2: The Developing Emotion

Outside in the space, Kira pilots his Aile Strike Gundam and destroying all the ZAFT's MS.

Kira: "Please. Don't come near anymore!! I don't wish to kill anymore people!!! Hh?!"

Kira look towards his side and saw Aegis Gundam coming towards him.

Kira: "Please, not you, I don't wish to fight you. ATHRUN!!!!"

Inside the Aegis, Athrun Zala look at the Aile Strike on his monitor screen.

Athrun: "Kira...Do we really had to fight each other?"

As the both of them were lost in their thoughts, Kira did not notice an escape shuttle was going towards him. Before he can even react, a MS from ZAFT attack and destroyed the shuttle. At that time, Kira was shocked and trembling with sadness and hatred. He dash towards the MS and destroyed it. Athrun saw that Kira was in this situation, he felt sorry for him.

Athrun(to his crew members): Let's retreat.

Yzak: But we still not finish with them yet.

Athrun: I'm the leader. Do as I said!!

Yzak: Feh!!

All the ZAFT retreated and Kira seeing that all of them had gone. He brought up his leg and hide his head in his arms, he think about the escape shuttle which he failed to protect and he starts to cry. But at the same moment, he thought that he heard Lacus singing and in his mind, he wants to see her as soon as possible. He pilot his Gundam back to Archangel. After he settle his Gundam, he ran towards Lacus's room. He paused as he heard Lacus singing as he was standing outside.

hoshi no furu basho e

omoi wo anata ni todoketai

itsumo soba ni iru

sono tsumetasa wo dakishimeru kara

ima toukutemo, kitto aerune

shizuka na yoru ni

The song paused and the door in front of Kira open and Lacus standing in front smiling at him.

Lacus: Ara? Kira, what's wrong? Something bad happened?

Kira just nod his head. Lacus look sadly at him, she then took his hand, Kira look up at her.

Lacus: Come on in, let's sit down and talk, you must be very tired already.

Kira nod his head again and follow her in. They sat down on the bed, beside each other. Kira was still lowing his head staring at his hands.

Lacus: Kira, can you tell me what happened to you?

Kira never reply her, she starts to get worried and place her hands on his.

Lacus: If you do not want to said it out, it's alright.

Kira look at her and then back at his hands, which was now trembling.

Kira: I...I couldn't save a escape shuttle and I killed a lot of people again...Actually I don't wish to kill them!! But they kept coming back!! WHY!! WHY MUST THEY?!! I DON'T WISH TO KILL THEM!!!

Kira buried his face in his arms and trying to hold by his tears as he should not cry in front of other people. But Lacus place her hands on his head, rubbing it. Kira look up and saw Lacus smile sadly at him.

Lacus: Kira...You can cry when you want to, don't keep it to yourself.

Tears starts to flow down Kira's cheek as he heard what Lacus told him. He cried out loud and curled up himself while laying his head on Lacus's laps. Lacus rub his head smoothly as he cried. Lacus seeing Kira's situation, she begin to sing a song.

Mizu no naka ni yoru ga yureteru

Kanashii hodo shizuka ni tatazumu

Midorinasu kishibe

Utsukushii yoake wo

Tada matte iraretara

Kirei na kokoro de

Kurai umi to sora no mukou ni

Arasoi no nai basho ga aruno to

Osiete kureta no wa dare

Dare mo ga tadori tsukenai

Soretomo dareka no kokoro no naka ni

Mizu no nagare wo shizumete

Kureru daichi wo uruosu shirabe

Ima wa doko nimo nakutemo

Kitto jibun de te ni ireruno

Itsumo, itsuka, kitto

Mizu no akashi wo kono te ni

Subete no honoo wo nomikonde nao

Hiroku yasashiku nagareru

Sono shizukesa ni tadoritsuku no

Itsumo, itsuka, kitto

Anata no te wo tori...

After finish her song, Lacus look down at Kira, who was now sleeping soundly on her laps. She rub his head and smile.

Haro: Haro!! Haro!!

Lacus: Haro! Shh...!! Kira had fall asleep, I don't wish to disturbed his sleep. But in this position, I can't move either.

Few Hours Later...

Kira woke up and remember that Lacus was comforting him by singing a song to him. As he turned his head around, and saw Lacus leaning against the wall sleeping.

Kira: "Because I was sleeping on her lap, she couldn't move and she had to sleep like this."

Kira raised his hand and brush a few hairs off Lacus's face. And he was thinking why he wanted to see her so much if he got any problem. Why she was the only one who know his feelings and what he really want, a person to care for him, to be there for him whenever he was in trouble. Kira sit up and move Lacus carefully, but she woke up when he lay her on the bed.

Lacus: Kira..?

Kira: Sorry that I woke you up, after all the help you have given to me.

Lacus: It's alright. Do you feel better now?

Kira: Hm. I'm fine now after a nice nap and hearing a nice song.

Lacus raise her hands and touch Kira's face, at that moment, Kira felt that a new feeling starts to develop inside him, but he did not know what was it.

Lacus: Remember Kira, don't be afraid. Just remember that I will be always there for you if you got any trouble. Come and talk to me and I'll guide you with my song.

Kira's eyes widen and realize that Lacus was really the one who know his feelings the most, she was the one who care for him, the one who will help him through any circumstances. The feeling inside him grows stronger and he realize that he likes Lacus, he wants to protect her no matter what the causes. Kira placed his hands on top of Lacus's, he bent down and kiss her cheek like she did to him the last time. Lacus blushed a little and Kira smiled at her.

Lacus: Kira...

Kira: Have a good rest, Lacus.

Kira placed her hands back down at her and giving a last smile to Lacus, he left the room. When he had left, Lacus touch her cheek where Kira had kiss her.

Lacus: "Kira. How should I express my feeling to you, that I like you, Kira Yamato."

Next story, Kira and Lacus express their feeling towards each other. Fllay founds out and try to break them up. STAY TUNED!!!
