Hello everybody this is your new author Lady Akime. I think I am a very talented writer and I hope you believe so as well once you see my stories.

This is my very first story here on this site. Please do not flame it really hurts me the writer. Like I always say, if you have nothing good to say don't say anything at all.

Summary: Lacus Clyne and Kira Yamato were childhood friends at one time. As they grew they drifted apart. Now they both live their own lives that are in a way so different from one another. They live not even knowing that the other is still living. That is until one day when the childhood friends meet once again. With memories and feelings flooding back to them, will their separate lives bring them together or tear them apart.

Disclaimer: Of course I do not own Gundam Seed. I have dreams about it but as you all know those are just dreams. There is no way they will become reality. However, there are some characters in this story that I made up on my own so please take note of that.


Prologue: Tearful Departures

"Kira please be careful!" a small childish voice called out to the young brunette that ran off into the distance.

"Don't worry Lacus!" the young boy by the name of Kira shouted back, his small figure soon disappearing down the long hill.

The pink haired girl smiled and sat down on the top of the grassy hill, watching the sight below with her clear blue eyes. The passing breezes played with the ends of her hair, causing them to hit her in her face.

"Oh Kira you sure are something," Lacus giggled as she pushed the hair out of her face. The sight from below amused her. "I wonder how I'm going to tell you."

At the bottom of the hill three kids played around. Athrun Zala, Cagalli Yula Attha, and Kira Yamato tossed a ball back and forth with each other. Every once in a while Cagalli would start screaming at one of the boys. It really was a sight to see.

"Lacus can you call everybody inside please?" a tall woman from inside asked the little pink haired princess.

Lacus Clyne nodded and walked over to the hills slope. She gazed down and held the tip of her straw hat to shade her eyes from the burning sun. Her pink dress with white lace waved with the gentle winds. For a little girl of 10, Lacus was beautiful.

"Athrun! Cagalli! Kira!" Lacus yelled as loud as she could which wasn't very loud. Even though her voice was low and gentle all three 10 year olds heard her and turned her way.

"What's wrong Lacus?" Athrun asked as he held the ball in his arms and squinted to look at Lacus.

"Nanny Akime said it is time to come inside," Lacus informed them. Her brand new nanny was the best ever. She was so nice and was almost like a teenager.

Without another second to spare all three of the kids ran up the hill towards the large mansion that Lacus currently lived in. A tall red haired woman waited outside the front door with her hands on her hips.

"You all had as much fun as possible?" Red head Akime asked the group of kids now in front of her. Each child nodded with a large smile.

"Good because you won't be having the chance again anytime soon," she added with a sad expression on her face. She was trying to hide it but it was no use.

Oh no, Lacus thought and lowered her head when she saw Kira's confused look. He raised an eyebrow and looked at Akime.

"What do you mean? What's going on?" he asked curiously. His eyes traveled over to Lacus who had something important on her mind. "What's going on Lacus?"

"I'm leaving," Lacus whispered and lifted her head. Tears fell down from her eyes then hit the soft ground.

"That's nothing big. You're going to come back so everything will be fine," Kira laughed. "You really worried me."

Athrun and Cagalli knew he was in denial. They both already knew about everything. Lacus thought Kira would be the hardest to tell since there was a small crush between both young kids. Parting with one another would be hard.

"I'm leaving forever!" Lacus burst out and ran inside her mansion crying. Her hands covered her tear stained face as she ran up the stairway to her room.

Kira was silent as he watched Lacus in shock. His mouth hung open but he couldn't say a thing. It was as if his vocal cords were tied up.

"I am so sorry about that," Akime said and watched Lacus then turned her attention back to the three kids. "We are leaving tomorrow at noon. If you are to say goodbye say it then at the dock. Please get home safely."

Akime bowed slightly and walked inside the mansion, her head down the whole way to the kitchen.

"Kira let's go," Cagalli said and took Kira's hand in her own. "Mom wanted us home early. She'll get mad at us."

"It is getting late. My dad is going to start complaining," Athrun mumbled and put his hand on the frozen Kira. "Let's get going. We'll go to the dock tomorrow."

Kira was only able to nod his head slightly. As he did so his feet, without notice, started to drag his body away from the mansion.


Noon The Next Day

Lacus wore a beautiful sea blue dress with white lace at the edges. A white sun hat rested on her head keeping her safe from the sun. White sandals clicked on the soft ground as she took every step towards the ship.

"Lacus!" Kira cried out when he saw Lacus approaching the ship. For some reason he was all alone. There was no Athrun or Cagalli with him.

Lacus turned around sharply and looked at Kira then behind him. Nothing was behind him…nobody was behind him. A weak smile appeared on her face as well as a look of confusion.

"Kira where is Athrun and Cagalli?" Lacus asked as Kira stood a few feet away from her, a bit scared to move forward.

"They decided not to come," Kira said and shrugged a bit as he remembered the events that happened this morning.


Flashback

Kira ran down the stairs in his house. He was already dressed to go see Lacus at the dock. He was caught off guard when he saw Cagalli sitting with Athrun in the living room watching television and not even dressed.

Since Athrun slept over that night, Kira expected him to be the first one that was dressed and ready to go.

"Hey you both have to get dressed if we're going to make it on time," Kira said as he walked to the couch where his twin and best friend relaxed.

"Kira I can't go," Athrun said to Kira with a guilty look. "I forgot to tell you yesterday that I had to go with my dad to a meeting. Sorry Kira."

Kira nodded and told Athrun that he understood. Now he wanted to hear Cagalli's story. There wasn't anything he didn't know about going on in the house…was there?

"Last night mom asked me to stay home today to help her," Cagalli lied. She felt bad about lying to her brother on such a dear day to him but it would all be worth it. "I guess you're going to have to go alone."

"But…" Kira started but was cut off by Athrun and Cagalli.

"Kira you better hurry or else Lacus is going to leave," Athrun motioned to the time.

"It's already 11:51 a.m.," Cagalli read from the digital clock and laughed a bit at Kira's expression.

"I'm going to miss it!" Kira yelled and started to run out the house. Once the door slammed, Athrun and Cagalli looked at one another and smiled.

"I feel bad about lying to him but he has to talk to Lacus," Cagalli whispered and leaned on Athrun and continued to watch TV.

End Flashback


"Lacus hurry we have to get going," Akime told the girl and picked up her bags and loaded the ship.

"I guess I have to go now," Lacus whispered and let her tears fall from her eyes as her eyes met with Kira's.

"Bye Lacus," Kira mumbled and watched as Lacus boarded the ship, her eyes never leaving his own.

The ship slowly started to depart from the port. Kira's hands balled into fists as tears ran down his cheeks. Once the ship was a distance away, he ran after it until he got to the edge of the dock.

"Lacus!" he yelled and started to wave. "I'll see you again someday!"

Tears flowed down his cheeks freely. He didn't care who saw him or what anybody would say if they did.

Lacus's tears fell down more frequently when he said his words. She nodded and started to wave back to him.

"I'll wait for that day!" she cried out to him as the ship traveled farther away from her home and Kira.

Kira still waved even when the ship was out of sight. He then lowered his hand to his side and balled his fists. "I promise we will see each other. I promise," he whispered to the air as if it were Lacus.

Who would have guessed that day would come nine years later?
