Summary: Some guy keeps calling Cagalli and she finds that it's not who she expected it would be.
"Things happen, people happen. I'm sorry Athrun but we're happy now. And you... you just weren't there enough. You left me and he stayed. He's always stayed, right by my side. I just want to be with him."
Athrun stared at her before answering.
"But Cagalli... he's your brother!"
She looked over his shoulder.
"Does that matter Athrun? Does that really matter? If you were Kira... what would you do? Would you stay here, with me, or leave? Would you fall in love with me?"
She looked at him, her face softening.
"Athrun..."
His chest hurt for some reason.
"It doesn't matter what I say does it? You've already made your decision. Nothing that I could say would make you change it would it?"
She paused, almost like she was hesitating, or maybe just searching for the right words.
"... No, I'm happy, really happy. With him I know that I can be myself, with him I AM myself, and I wouldn't change it for the world, even if he is my brother,"
He hesitated, his heart giving a painful squeeze in his chest.
"Cagalli... I'm sorry, I wish that things had turned out differently."
She smiled, a soft sad smile.
"Me too Athrun, me too."
They shared a look for a moment.
"Hey Cagalli! Athrun!"
Cagalli's head snapped to the right where Kira was running toward them, a smile that was fit for a goddess graced her lips.
"Hey Kira!"
She restrained from waving to him.
Athrun stared at him for a moment before greeting him.
"... Kira."
Kira could feel the tension and decided to break the silence that had fallen.
"So what's..." Cagalli gave him a look. "Oh,"
"Kira, we should leave. My business here is done and I'll miss my meeting with the PLANT officials if I don't leave now."
Kira turned to her, asking "Cagalli, are you sure?"
She nodded "Positive. I want to go anyway,"
He nodded before turning.
"Fine, let's go then."
She smiled and slipped her hand into his.
"... Cagalli!"
She turned back to Athrun.
"Stay strong and be happy."
She smiled again, this time it was filled with happiness.
"Thanks Athrun, I will, we will. I hope that we can still be friends."
My gosh how many times do I have to say this? I do not own Gundam Seed.
