RRRIIINNNGGG!!!
Cagalli raised her arm and knocked the alarm clock off her side table. She buried her head under a fluffy pillow and continued her slumber. After five minutes, the alarm clock rang again.
The fiery princess threw the pillow; shut her ears tight and screamed,
"CAN'T ANYONE SHUT THAT DAMN CLOCK UP??"
She kicked the mattress hard and yelled angrily; this was Cagalli usual morning tantrum. After shouting herself hoarse, she jumped out of bed; still half-asleep, and headed straight to the bathroom for a shower.
The feeling of hot water trickling down her soft skin was heavenly. She dabbed some fragrant liquid soap onto her palms, and began caressing her body with it. After a quick rinse, she grabbed her fluffy soft pink towel and wrapped it around her slender body. After brushing her teeth and using her facial stuffs, she went out of the bathroom and dressed in a white coloured suit.
She dashed to the kitchen, had her usual cup of espresso which perked her up, several toast and eggs, and off she went to her office, chauffeured in a jet-black limousine.
lllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllll
After a few hours of her hectic schedule of meetings, Cagalli went to her favourite haunt to find peace and serenity.
Cagalli took a taxi from her work place to the beach. When she arrived there, she was greeted by the gentle gust of wind. She took off her white coat, and which she wore a red tank top inside. She made her way across the sandy beach and sat on a large boulder, which faced the sea.
She sat there, listening to the splashing of the waves, the soft whooshing of wind and the calling of seagulls. There were not many people there; it felt like the beach was hers. What was lacking there was Athrun.
Cagalli then gave a small cough, smiled at the peaceful state, and started to sing a few lines.
"Haruka naru kaze no koe umare kuru chiisa na tane wa,"
The voice of the wind grows farther and farther away, a tiny seed is born
"Mada aoi hane hiroge oozora e maiagari,"
I spread my still-pale wings and soar to the sky
Niji wo koe kumo wo koe chizu naki tomoshibi no tabi,"
Climbing the rainbow, crossing the clouds, the map-less journey of the light
"Kaze wo shiri ame wo shiru,"
Discovering the wind, discovering the rain
"Tsubasa ga yogoretemo koko kara tada tobitai,"
These wings are stained, but all I want to do is fly away from this place
"Dakara subete no kodou yo."
So I call out to the pulse of the world
Cagalli stood up, jumped down from the boulder, and began walking on the sand,
"Dakishimeta omoi wo toki hanatsu sekai e,"
I'm releasing this feeling I once embraced into the world
"Maiorita kimi wa feel like a precious rose,"
It flutters downward, you feel like a precious rose
"Suna no umi ni saku hana hitotsu."
One flower that blooms in an ocean of sand
There, on a wooden bench, was a red rose; a pink ribbon was tied around and a note attached to it. Cagalli picked up the note; it was addressed to her but the sender was unknown. She smiled as she stroked the rose lovingly as she walked on towards the road.
"Teritsukeru taiyou ni unadarenai sono hana wa,"
That flower doesn't wither even under the glaring sun
"Kore kara no michi wo yuku daiji na kimi no tomoshibi."
I travel down the road from here, my footprints leading to your precious light
Then she saw another a similar red rose on top of a bush, across the road. Cagalli crossed the road and picked up the rose, again, it was addressed to her. Someone was playing a game with her. She looked around and made her way into the park.
"Ashiato wa tsumibukaku sajin no iro wo someteku,"
This sand cloud's color is becoming stained
"Honmono no sono wa doko?"
But where is the real thing?
A little blonde girl with shimmering green eyes walked up to Cagalli and presented her with a red rose. Upon receiving the rose, the little girl gave a sweet smile and ran off. Cagalli, wanting to know who sent her these roses, chased after her.
The chase had led her to a very beautiful place. Tall branches shed light pink sakura petals, which danced led by the wind, fell gently like snow. And there was a white coloured gazebo full of roses. In the middle of the gazebo, stood a blue-haired man, which Cagalli knew very well.
Cagalli walked up the gazebo, towards the blue-haired figure. She gazed into his emerald eyes, not wanting to take her eyes off him. Athrun then held out his hand, signaling for her to grab it. Cagalli reached out her hand and touched it; her gaze was still upon his eyes.
"Koe wo age nobashita te ni fureteita kiseki no me wa,"
I raise my voice and touch the hand that reached out to me
"Omoigakenai katachi ni."
The eyes of this miracle take on an unimaginable shape
Athrun embraced the woman he loved most. Cagalli never felt this way before, a feeling of warmth and secure. She looked at Athrun, smiling, and tears began flowing down her rosy cheeks.
"Dakiyosete kanjiru nukumori ga kotae de,"
From your answer, I feel the warmth nestling in
"Shinjiteite yokatta to namida afureta,"
I'm glad I believed, my eyes suddenly brimmed with tears
"Toki wo kasanete hana futatsu."
Two flowers overlapping over time
"Mizu to hi no inochi wa daichi ume kagayaite,"
The existence of water and fire sinks into the earth and glows on
"Hana ochiru hi made mitsumeau kara,"
Because we'll keep our gaze until that flower dies
"Negai wa sora ni coming precious rose."
This wish from the sky is coming - Precious rose
"Athrun, this place is wonderful! It's sort of dreamy and so romantic," said Cagalli.
Athrun smiling, said, "I'm glad you love this. It's made especially for a special moment."
Cagalli wanted to ask what the special moment was when Athrun when on his knees, took out a red square box, opened it, presented it to her. The box contained a white gold diamond ring.
"Cagalli, our meeting had been a fateful one. I never ever cared for a person as I cared for you. I would to wake up every morning, looking at your angelic sleeping face. I want to hold you in my arms, never letting go. Cagalli Yula Athha, will you marry me?"
The blonde was shocked by Athrun's proposition. More tears fell down and across her face was a warm smile.
"Yes."
lllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllll
The event took place the same place where Athrun had proposed to Cagalli. The guests were seated and present to watch their wedding to take place.
On the gazebo, stood handsome Athrun in a jet-black tuxedo and beautiful Cagalli, in a peach coloured wedding gown. The best man, Kira, stood behind Athrun, and in his hands was the wedding ring. The bridesmaids were Lacus and Miriallia, wore matching pink coloured gowns.
After the exchanging of rings, the newly wedded couple kisses passionately and then walked down the aisle. Cagalli then threw the bouquet of flowers, and was caught by Lacus.
"Well, Mrs Zala, You're mine at last, honey. I'll love you forever. And if I'm unfaithful, you are free to murder me with Strike Rouge" Said Athrun mischievously.
Cagalli smiled, punched her husband's arm lightly and said,
"Don't you dare! If you do.."
Kira interrupted, "I'll make sure you suffer. Don't you dare bully my little sister!"
Cagalli snapped back, "Older!"
Athrun chuckled and said, "You got to work on that temper, honey."
Cagalli frowned slightly.
Athrun stroke her cheek and whispered in her ear,
"You'll always be my precious rose."
