Chapter 2: A confession
(Athrun's POV)
"Miss Cagalli… there is something I must tell you….." the brown haired man said.
'What Am I doing? They act as if I'm not even here!' I thought
"Yeah… what is it?" she replied, I turned to face the brown haired boy, by the name of Alfmed.
"I…I…I …lo-" he said whilst trembling, "mmm" "I lo-..." he tried to say his words but it seemed that he just couldn't.
'But…how does he know her?' I asked myself.
"I …love you," he whispered.
"What? I couldn't hear you, speak up!" she told him.
I stared at the boy, anticipating his next actions, but he stayed still, not moving an inch from where he was.
"I SAID I LOVE YOU!" he yelled.
I was shocked and when I turned around I noticed that the same went for Cagalli. She was just staring at the young man, a deep expression of shock plastered across her face. I unknowingly clenched my fists, but then I stopped myself.
'Am I jealous…? No, it's not possible, I love Lacus…I think…. Could I perhaps love Cagalli? No…I can't, I couldn't, could I? Did I fall in love with Cagalli not even noticing?'
"But…I-" she started, but the young man, who I could see was growing angry with frustration interrupted.
"You what…" He started, "What are you trying to say!"
-------------------------------------------------
(Cagalli's POV)
"What? He loves me. Me? Of all people! But I only care for him as a friend nothing more and nothing less….now to tell him…" I thought.
"Alfmed, I'm sorry but I can't return those same feelings about you… I can't," I told him, being careful to make sure that my voice was as gentle as possible when breaking it to him. "We are only meant to be friends, nothing more and nothing less. Sorry but it's the truth" I said.
"But Miss Cagalli…I love you isn't that how you feel too?" he asked, his eyes were pleading with me, for some kind of sign, a sign that I knew I couldn't possibly give him.
He put his hands on my shoulders trying to pull me closer to him, and leaning in... For a kiss.
"LET ME GO!" I yelled. Suddenly Kira and Lacus came over, running to where Athrun and I where.
"She said to let go of her... NOW!" Athrun yelled and pushed him away from me.
"Who are you? Her lover… if that's it, her heart belongs to me... ME!" Alfmed said, his face turning red from his anger.
"WELL IT LOOKS LIKE YOU'RE ONLY A FRIEND IN HER HEART! NOT SOME ONE SHE LOVES! NOW LEAVE HER ALONE!" Athrun yelled back at him.
'Athrun… What? Wait I'm making myself look weak!' I thought
"Yeah leave her alone she doesn't want you!" Kira said, backing up his long-time friend.
"Who are you anyway?" Alfmed questioned, his face was now contorted with jealousy and hatred.
"I'm her brother, so step back!" Kira yelled. Alfmed stared at him, shocked.
"Goodbye." he said to me before he left. I watched him disappear into the trees in the park; feeling rather perplexed to what was happening.
"I could have handled that myself you know!" I told my friends, rather annoyed at them.
"Not by the looks of it you couldn't…" Athrun said with a grin on his face.
I let out a sigh.
"Well I think that we should eat!" Lacus announced, changing the subject quickly.
"Good I'm starving!" Kira said while pointing at the nearest table to eat.
Kira and Lacus went to set up the food.
"Cagalli… are you okay?" Athrun asked me, his face was one of worry and anxiety.
"Not really sure… I only thought of Alfmed as a friend but I guess he doesn't see how I feel about him through my eyes," I explained.
"Well he's gone now, so you don't have to worry about that. Everything going to be okay… And just keep this in mind," He leant closer to me, and I felt butterflies start up in my stomache and my face heat quickly, "I'm here for you…"
"You don't have to do that…" I told him, "I can take care of myself," and with that said, I strolled off away from him and towards Kira and Lacus. I couldn't stand being around him any longer, the feelings he stirred up within me, although they were nice, were not something I wanted to feel for a guy who was clearly in love with one of my close friends.
"Cagalli…" he muttered as I walked past.
After the picnic
-------------------------------------------------
(Athrun's POV)
We had all finished eating, and the sun was setting it was glorious and it made me feel whole again for some reason.
"I love to see sunset, it makes me feel different," I thought
I put a hand on one of Cagalli's shoulders; trying to comfort her slightly.
"Cagalli…" "It's okay-"
"Thank you…for everything Athrun," she told me, turning around and flashing me an earnest smile.
"You're welcome Cagalli," I said, smiling back at her.
"Well its best that we get going," Lacus told us, with a serene smile on her face "its getting late…"
"Well, I guess so" I replied, "I'll take Cagalli home if anyone minds…"
"No, go right ahead" Kira said, "I'll walk you home then," He told Lacus.
"Okay then…is you're house near here Cagalli?" I asked her.
"Huh… well like fifteen minutes away, or so," she replied.
"Okay then, let's get going…"
Opening the car door, I held it open for Cagalli to climb in.
As I began to drive, after a few minutes, after she fell asleep.
"She looks like a beautiful angel of heaven when she is sleeping," I thought
"Oohh…" she moaned, while putting her hand on her head.
"Is something wrong? Cagalli?" I asked.
"My head hurts…" She mumbled so quietly that it was almost incoherent.
"We're here anyway, I'll give you some medicine to ease the pain, alright so hold on," I said.
I carried Cagalli to the nearest sofa inside her house, and laid her down.
"Here…this will help you feel better. Maybe it was caused by all the things that happened today, so you'll need a lot of sleep," I said, "I'll help you to your room," I told her, but as I went to pick her up again she pushed herself away.
"No it's okay…I can walk," she said while trying to stand up, but I wasn't having any of it, she wobbled unsteadily so I picked her up and carried her.
"ATHRUN PUT ME DOWN…I'll Wait until my parents come…" she threatened me.
"There was a note on the refrigerator saying that they were working late so they will be coming tomorrow at dinner time, and there's no point in waiting till then!" I told her honestly.
Upon arriving to her room, I kicked the door open with a thud from my foot; I spied her bed in the corner and draped her – still frantically kicking – body upon it.
"When are you leaving…?" She asked, tiredly.
"Is that your way of asking me to leave?" I asked her, whispering quietly "I'm leaving as soon as Kira comes back."
A while after…
"Hey… Athrun what happened?" Kira asked while walking toward Cagalli.
"Nothing…really she had a headache and I carried her to her bed…"I explained. "Well I guess I should leave…"
I walked toward Cagalli and kissing her gently on the forehead, I turned around and walking past Kira, left the room.
Here is the chapter you guys wanted and well how was it? Oh and sorry if I made it too long I hate writing long stories or chapters and well it just took time…
Preview: the next chapter is called "long walks and talks" and well Athrun and Cagalli moments and Kira and lacus moments but someone will try to tear Athrun and Cagalli apart. Until next time…
