Chapter 5: Truth behind those eyes

"Kira, Lacus is in the bathroom, she won't come out." Athrun told his friend.

"I'll get her out, do you have a key for it?" Kira asked.

"No, if I did, I would have already opened it." Athrun sighed. Kira went over and knocked on the bathroom door. "Lacus, it's me Kira, open the door."

Kira and Athrun both hopfully waited for the door to open, or at least to hear a reply but there was neither.

Kira knocked again a little harder this time. "Lacus! I'm getting tired of this! What do I have to do? Tell me." Kira turned the door knob but it was locked. He looked back at Athrun.

"Athrun, do you have a pin?"

Athrun raised his eyebrows. "You're going to try to open the door with a pin?"

"Yah." He replied simply. Athrun searched around his house and came back with a paper clip.

"I don't have a pin, but will this work?" Athrun asked while handing Kira the clip.

"It'll have to do." He unbent it so that it looked like a sharp edge and put it in the key hole of the door knob. It took a few tries until there came a 'click' sound. Kira turned the door knob and it opened. He saw Lacus sitting on the floor next to the bath tub.

She quickly stood up when she saw Kira. "Lacus, let's get you back to the hospital. Kira stepped closer but Lacus moved to the side.

"I'm not going back. I'll be fine." She said flatly. Kira reached and grabbed her arm and was successful getting her out of the bathroom, but she resisted when he tried to take her to the hospital.

"I told you, I'm not going back! Now let go!" Lacus yelled but she couldn't free herself from Kira's tight grasp. "Let go of me!"

Athrun put a hand on Kira's shoulder. "It looks like it's going to take some time…I'd better get going, I have tons of things to do." He whispered to him.

"You do that Athrun, and thanks."

"No problem, see you later." Athrun then left the house leaving Kira and Lacus.

Kira sighed and let go of her arm. Lacus got back inside the bathroom but when she was about to close the door, Kira stopped her. Instead of dragging her out again, he stepped inside and closed the door behind him. Kira locked the door and saw Lacus with an angry expression.

"What are you doing?"

"I'm not going to get out until you tell me what's bothering you." Kira spoke while looking at her face.

"Then I'll get out. Lacus tried of reach for the door knob but Kira wouldn't let her through. "I won't let you out either."

"Look, I'm really tired right now, and I just want to go back to my house." Lacus said trying to calm her anger.

"Just tell me, and I'll let you out Lacus."

"Why are you doing this Kira!" Lacus felt frustrated.

"Shouldn't I be asking you that?"

"Kira, I understand now. I know you don't to forget Fllay Allster and all I am doing is getting out of your way…just like how you wanted me to." Lacus looked away.

"When I saw you wanting to hold onto her so much….I wished that I have been born as Fllay instead…I guess I envied her…"

Kira couldn't believe what he was hearing. He then saw Lacus step inside the bathtub and held the shower handle (A/N: Sorry, I don't know what it's called.) over her head. She turned on the faucet and ice cold water fell onto her and she didn't even flinch.

"I wish I could just drown…." Lacus spoke quietly just enough that Kira could hear it.

Kira's heart felt like melting after he heard how she felt. His hands turned into fists. Kira rushed over and pulled her out of the tub as she dropped the handle with the water still running. "Lacus…" he held her wet body against his, and wrapped his arms around her shoulders. "Fllay is important to me….but words can't describe how much I love you Lacus….I'm sorry…for everything…I had no idea how much I was hurting you…"

Lacus rest her chin on his shoulder and closed her eyes. She began to cry. "Kira…." She whispered out. Kira and Lacus kneeled to the floor as she cried on him. He got a large towel and wrapped it around her as she cried herself to sleep. Kira stood up and turned off the faucet and scooped Lacus in his arms. He unlocked the door and stepped out.

Kira set Lacus on the couch and watched her sleep. "I hope Athrun won't mind Lacus sleeping in his house for one day." Kira noticed Lacus's cut on her wrist was bleeding again. "Oh no…."

He checked around the house and found some bandages. Kira brought it over and kneeled next to Lacus. He gently grabbed her wrist and started to wrap the bandage around it. Lacus opened her eyes and turned her head to the side and saw Kira.

"Kira…."

Kira looked up at her face. "Oh sorry, I didn't mean to wake you up, your wrist started to bleed again so…"

"No….I woke up to tell you that…I'm sorry…it felt like…you apologized to me countless times…I just realized it when I was sleeping….so, I'm sorry Kira.." Lacus's voice was small, but Kira heard it clearly since he was close to her.

"There's nothing you should be apologizing for…I'm the idiot who made the mistake, not you Lacus…" Kira was now done wrapping the bandage, but he still held her hand in his.

Lacus tried to smile. "Tell me….would you hold onto me as much as you hold onto Fllay if I died?"

Kira's eyes widened by that question. "Lacus, why would you ask that question?"

"Mmm…I don't know…"

"You have no idea how much I'm holding onto you right now Lacus, you don't need to compare yourself to anyone."

Lacus closed her eyes. "I'll remember that….Kira…"

A/N: I've been writing this chapter bit by bit today and well, it feels like a blur. Haha, be sure to read my stories as well! The titles are 'Not meant to be' and 'Battle Royale'(I haven't updated this in a while. ) I hope for more reviews!
