Disclaimer: I do not own Gundam Seed nor any of the characters. Sure wished I did...

The Big Chapter 5, the final chapter! I know it's only been like... a bit over a week, but theres going to be a new story arc after this (on a lighter tone and probably with humor), so it's not finished off yet. I was just eager to end this darker series. Enjoy Chapter 5.

Note: Theres one italics statement, and you can pretty much guess who that is... Kira again!

I hope this chapter makes up for all the Cagalli fans I upsetted in Chapter 3. So long till I start the second story arc!

Unforgiven Love

Chapter 5: Forever Together

On PLANT, a dark figure was moving pieces on a chest board. "It seems he won that match," replied the figure.

"I assume so, Lacus-Sama" replied Gilbert Dullindal. "But it proves the D.S.G. (Dream Sequence Generator) was a success."

"This was designed to boost morale in ZAFT Soldiers." replied Lacus.

"Still, you used the prototype for your benefits." replied the Dullindal. "Had fun being Fllay Allster?"

"You..." said Lacus.

Dullindal let off a laugh. "No need to get so angry, Lacus-Sama."

"That is none of your concern, future Chairman, Gilbert Dullindal." replied Lacus.

Dullindal let off a smirk. "Understood. Would you like to check on the status of the L1 Clone?" asked Dullindal.

"No, that will endanger the success of the mission. No one shall know that the real Lacus is still on PLANT." replied Lacus.

"And you won't feel the pain with your Kira being taken away?" asked Dullindal.

"Checkmate, Gilbert." said Lacus.

Back on ORB, Kira awakens.

"Kira," the voice spoke again.

"I... it... can't be!" replied Kira.

"Kira, please wake up!" the voice spoke sharply. Kira begin to feel someone shaking his body.

"He better wake up you dumb witch!" yelled the voice. Kira would recognize that voice anywhere. He finally managed to open his eyes. His sight was blurry, but he could make out a figure with golden blond hair, and beautiful amber eyes.

"Cag..alli?!" asked Kira.

"I'm here, Kira." replied Cagalli holding his hand.

She look worried and tired. Was she... crying?

"Idiot!" she cried as she pounded his chest. "Why didn't you wake up!?"

"Cagalli..." replied Kira as his eyes began to water.

"What's wrong with you? Is that all you can say!?" yelled Cagalli. Kira sat up. He put his arm around Cagalli's head.

"I'm sorry for making you worry," said Kira. He patted her head and let it rest on his shoulder, his other hand wiping her tears away. "I will never leave you again."

"Kira..." replied Cagalli. Kira positioned his head infront of her. Their eyes met. Cagalli begins to blush and looks away, "This is embarassing."

Kira let off a pink blush of his own. He put his hand on her chin and gently moved it towards his face. His lips went closer to hers. He could feel Cagalli's heart racing, as did his. His lips arched closer. He could feel her breathing. "I can't live without you." he whispered.

"Kir..." Cagalli was cut off by a gentle touch on her lips. It was a kiss. Even though it was for a second, it lingered for many hours later.

Athrun watched from the door. He held the flowers in his hand tighter. He was going to ask Cagalli out... then... Kira... "But, Kira's my friend..." he thought. I shouldn't be dating his sister while he was in acoma. But now this... "Why Kira?!" he asked himself.

"Something wrong, Athrun?" asked Lacus. Athrun shoved the flowers to Lacus. She gives him a puzzled look.

"They're... they're for Kira." he replied.

"Those two tickets for the movie too?" asked Lacus.

"None of your business!" yelled Athrun. Lacus was startled."I'm sorry." apologized Athrun.

"You're sad that you lost Cagalli, aren't you Athrun?" asked the pink haired girl.

"What does it matter?" replied Athrun. Athrun noticed Lacus' lost in weight. "Ugh, are you on a diet? You look terribly thin."

Lacus hessitated for a moment. "I couldn't eat with Kira like that." she replied.

Athrun let off a smile. "You feel the same don't you? Kira..."

"What's important is you should never give up on the one you love." replied Lacus.

"What do you mean?" asked Athrun.

"Theres still a chance Cagalli will like you, but you have to work for it." replied Lacus.

"And you work for getting Kira too?" asked Athrun.

"Then, let us pray we both succeed." replied Lacus.

"Thank you, Lacus. I'll see you around. I need to find that flower shop again!" said Athrun.

Lacus smiled as Athrun exitted the apartment. "This will be interesting. Very interesting indeed." said the thin pink haired girl.

Back in the room, Cagalli was still in Kira's arms. "Kira?" asked Cagalli.

"What is it?" replied Kira in a gentle voice.

"Why did you change so much?" she asked, "Why do you seem different?"

"I had a strange dream Cagalli... it all began..." Kira trails off as he repeats the strange dream he experienced. Cagalli listened intently inside the safe grasp of her brother's arms. Athrun looks at a distance from the doorway.

"Not yet..." he thought. "It's their together time now. I shouldn't interupt." He began heading for the exit again. "I don't want to spoil their happiness." he said with tears from his eyes. He didn't want to hurt the two people most dear to him.

Lacus stares into the room with the couple. "Yes, very interesting." Cagalli stayed held in the arms of Kira.

"Just a bit longer," begged Cagalli, "just a bit longer..."
