Chapter 7 – Graduation Part One
Cagalli's POV
Mmmm… I didn't know sleeping was so heavenly… I don't think I want to wake up at all. But… the phone…
Riiiiing! Riiing Riiiing!
I don't want to get up! Oh I wish there's someone who can pick up the damnned phone for me… (A/N: She obviously has no idea about what had happened the day before!) I can't even open my eyes…
"Hello? Huh? Miss Attha? Oh! Cagalli, you mean? She's still asleep… yes… okay. I'll get her to call you back. Who? Fran Camp? Fran? Oh… Okay. No problem. You welcome,"
Who on earth was that?
Is my house haunted?
Or is that an intruder?
A guy's voice…
I grabbed my umbrella and went out of my room…
Who are you? Come out now. Where did he go? The kitchen? There's a smell in the kitchen but… why would the intruder want to steal something from the kitchen? I don't know… there are a lot of insane guys nowadays…
Normal POV
Cagalli went towards the kitchen, aware of the smell of pancakes… it was like the ones Lacus made. She went in, her weapon drawn.
"Aha! Caught you!" Cagalli blinked and lowered the 'sword'. "Err… Athrun? Why the heck are you here?"
Athrun grinned. "I see you're up! Well, pancakes for breakfast, princess! Is it ok?"
Cagalli remembered the night before. "You carried me all the way to my room?"
Athrun took the plates of pancakes and walked towards the dining room. "Yup. It's not that far, you know. And anyway you're no big load to carry,"
The girl sat down at the table and speared a fork at an unlucky pancake. "Yah… but, why didn't you go home?"
"I knew you'd feel alone… like as though I wouldn't anyway,"
"I vuld of corz feel arone,"
"Don't talk with your mouth full, Cagalli. It's a bad habit," Athrun gently took the fork out of Cagalli's mouth.
Cagalli swallowed. "Thanks. Where did you sleep for the night?"
"Duh. The guest room, of course!"
"Hmm… your pancakes are really good. They're like Lacus',"
At Lacus' name, Athrun looked away from Cagalli's eyes.
At the nearby jail…
"You would like to see Lacus Clyne?"
"Yes please,"
"Take a seat, we'll send her in,"
"Thank you," Kira went to the seat nearby and waited. A few minutes later, his pink haired love came behind the glass divider, and he pulled up his chair close to it.
"Kira… why are you here?"
"Just… just to see if you are okay,"
"I am, now that you are here," Lacus was glad that he loved her, and that made her smile despite being in jail.
"Lacus I… I really love you… and I hope that… maybe… after you are free… we could… you know…"
"Be together?" Lacus smiled at him, her eyes lighting up immediately.
Kira looked up, and stopped blushing. "Yah,"
Back at Cagalli's house
"So… who called?" Cagalli bit into her second pancake.
"Some girl called Fran Camp," Athrun took a bite out of his.
Cagalli stood up immediately.
"Where are you going?"
"To call her back, doofus," Cagalli dialed Fran's number.
Apparently there was a graduation night cum dance and goodbye ceremony for the graduating classes, one of which Cagalli was teaching. Therefore Cagalli was invited to come, and she was allowed to bring a dance partner. (A/N: It is obvious who the lucky guy is, right?)
"So… wanna come?"
"Duh,"
"And what does 'duh' mean?"
"Yes, Cagalli I do want to go with you," Athrun rolled his eyes. "When is it?"
"Tomorrow,"
"Fine. I'll pick you up. How about that?"
"8pm. Pick me up here," Cagalli took their plates and went to the kitchen.
"Cagalli,"
Cagalli turned around.
"What am I supposed to wear?"
The girl smiled. "Something… sexy?" She went up to him and put his hands on her waist. "Something that… makes everyone jealous of me 'cause I've got you as my dance partner,"
Athrun laughed and hugged her. "I promise I'll find one like that, okay? I've got to go now, or else I'll have to pay," He let go of her and went off. "You'd better wear something sexy too," He called after her.
"Don't worry, I will!" Cagalli waved, and decided that it was time she got ready for work.
You guys know what the title of the next chappie is... yah. Review!
