I got a sudden inspiration and decided to write another chapter. And well this is what I produced… don't blame me I was sleep deprived! Anyways I've gotten a few comment about Kira in the last chapter was OOC, and well looking back on it, maybe he was a little, but then again maybe not. See I figured living together with Cagalli for seventeen years and her fighting nature, that to her he would be more brotherly and tease, make her mad, and help her out when she's depressed. But to other people, or in front of other people he's shy and doesn't do that to anyone but his sister. That's just what I figured…. But I'm working on a plot now, I think I've got it. Yet if anyone wants to contact me or help me please email me at crimson.angle at gmail .com... oy but be nice hehehe.


Famous

Chapter Two: Under the Mask

A couple minutes before Kira and Cagalli arrived backstage-

A pink haired goddess stood in front of her mirror, smiling a soft lonely smile. At the beginning of her carrier she was having so much fun performing and seeing and meeting fans. Now it almost seemed like she had to do it. There was no excitement, she never got nervous before she was about to go up on stage anymore. Was she going to keep singing against her will till she was too old and pop culture threw her out?

Lacus Clyne stood in front of her mirror now the smile gone, but the look of worry washed upon her peachy face. No, I can't let myself feel down, I'm performing for Athrun, in his home town…… but why can't I feel the excitement? She wondered, she badly wanted to see Athrun, but what she needed from him was support.

"Ms. Clyne you're going to be on in a few minutes!" A brown haired girl cried out popping into the dress room looking at Lacus, "Ms. Clyne…."

Lacus sighed before she turned around and headed out the door, "Alright Miriallia, I'm coming. .." Lacus said producing a fake smile.

"Ms. Clyne…." The girl muttered, looking at her friend with stormy eyes. Miriallia knew well that Lacus was losing her will to sing, but there was nothing she could do. She had only known Lacus for a few months being her hair stylist. Yet Ms. Clyne almost never needed Miriallia, Lacus always did her own hair and makeup but she still had hairstylists and makeup artists there at all times.

She's lonely… Miriallia thought fallowing Lacus backstage. Being famous doesn't stop one from being lonely. All it does is cut you off from the regular world…

Lacus sighed as she opened the door backstage, then as if she put on a mask she walked through with a cute smile and dreamy eyes. Lacus could hear a faint 'Oh my god!' from the fan side of the stage. The pink-haired goddess looked over to see a short blond-haired girl, and next to her was a brown-haired boy. Lacus couldn't help but stare for a little bit at the scruffy brown-haired boy's eyes. They were a deep purple that ensnared Lacus's gaze for a couple seconds before she looked away.

Who is he, Lacus thought to herself as she walked over to the technicians and grabbed a microphone, I've never seen eyes like that.

"Did you see that!" Cagalli gasped, grabbing Kira's arm again, "She looked at me, she was looking right here." But Kira's head was somewhere far away. Kira felt like his breath was sucked right out of his lungs. His heart was pumping at fifty miles per hour, and he felt his face go a little red.

"Kira…?" Cagalli asked shaking Kira's arm a little to wake him up. Kira snapped awake, and blinked a couple times before he gazed down at his arm where his sister was tugging.

"Ah… what was that Cagalli, sorry I wasn't listing." Kira mumbled an apology blinking and looked at Cagalli, he could feel his face go even redder than before.

"Never mind you're not going to listen to me now," Cagalli answered, and it was the truth because Kira was quickly glancing at Lacus while attempting to make it seem as though he was looking somewhere else. But Cagalli wasn't confused, she noticed him right away and smiled.

Where is he? Lacus wondered scanning the crowd starring intensely at her, she didn't see anyone with blue hair, is he not coming…? I gave him backstage passes… But Lacus couldn't look at the crowd anymore her manager walked over and whispered something in her ear. Oh ok, I'll guess I'll talk to him after the show then, Lacus smiled, she now had a reason to do the show.

Somewhere not far away-

A blue-haired boy hung up his cell phone as he turned his steering wheel to avoid traffic. Great! He thought sarcastically, I made her come out all this way and I'm stuck in traffic, the boy cursed himself.

A line of cars littered the small street to the stage, each honking and hooting at one another. The seventeen year old boy sighed at his own stupidity and looked at the endless line of cars in front of him. Suddenly laughter emanated from his car as he looked at the license plate in front of him that read 'U AS FOO' the blue-haired boy quickly pulled out his digital camera and took a picture of the plate. She'll love this, he thought as he drove forward a little bit, four feet closer to his destination.

Backstage-

It was only seconds before the curtain was about to slowly revealing the star tonight on this stage. Lacus kept her mask on and made her cute smile ready to face the crowd the cheered beyond the curtain. Lacus took one look behind her as the crowed roared with the start of the curtain opening, her eyes fell directly onto a pair of purple eyes. Lacus felt herself smile a true warm smile at the pair of purple eyes before turning the raging crowd below.

Kira felt himself go into a full blush, he instantly tried to hide it, but it didn't matter. The lights dimmed and the crowd cheered, the concert was about to begin. Pink and blue lights followed after, all pin pointed at various spots on the stage, the big pink was shined brightly right on Lacus. A guitar in the background started of softly, then Lacus joined in singing out loud.

Her voice is just as beautiful as she looks, Kira thought, amazed that out of such a small person such a loud powerful voice glowed from her. But something didn't seem right, the closer Kira observed Lacus singing, she was smiling, but Kira swore he could see pain in her eyes. Why… he thought, why is there so much pain and sorrow in those eyes… wait! Kira recognized those eyes, he had seen that look so many times before, that was the look he had in his eyes, Is she like me?

Entrance Backstage-

"You may go," the tall darkly dressed man muffled, letting in the same blue-haired boy stuck in traffic.

"Thanks," the boy panted, running through the door. He finally found a spot to see Lacus among the crowd who spent ridiculous amounts of money to be back here.

"Ah good, I didn't miss much," he huffed, leaning over to see Lacus perform. The boy felt himself gasp at his friend, she certainly was much prettier in person. She's grown a lot since we've met, he thought watching her, smiling thinking of the memories they had before she became famous.

"Athrun…!" a voice cried over from the left of the blue-haired boy. Athrun turned to the direction where he heard the voice, there a couple people away from him he saw a familiar brown scruffy haired boy.

"Kira….!"
