Chapter 4

It was in the afternoon when Cagalli entered the Café she went to the counter and ordered her cappuccino while she was waiting Shinn approached her.

Shinn lifted his face up from the familiar voice that cut his thoughts, his eyes laid on the person that plagued his mind a lot lately I still don't get it, Why her that my mind drift to? Love at first sight? All he knows is that he wants to listen to her sweet voice again, he only met her once before but felt like he knew her for always. He decided to say hello, he got up and walked toward her.

"Hey Cagalli" Shinn greeted

She turned her head to have her eyes meet the greeting person "Oh Shinn" she smiled weakly.

Shit what hit her she looks a mess he thought "Cagalli are you ok?" he asked her worried

She didn't know that her eyes were swollen red, and her cheeks matched. When she heard his questions again she felt the pain again. Thousands needles in her heart, she still doesn't want to believe. She was gazing at the floor sad, depressed.

When he saw her silent he put his hand on her shoulder "Cagalli…" he started but was cut off by the made behind the counter "Your order is ready"

Cagalli took her wallet out of her pocket and placed the money on the counter and mumbled with a low voice "Thanks". She took her drink and looked at Shinn "I'm ok Shinn, thanks for asking" She walked when his hand left her shoulder it felt cold. She remembered Asuran's warm embraces how she loved them, still love them. But where are you now? She said mockingly to herself.

Shinn stood there and looked at her walking away figure. She settled at a table the opposite corner of Shinn's. Shinn frowned then decided he would join her even if she didn't ask. He went back to his table took his drink and walked to her and sat opposite of her. "Mind if I join you?" he smiled at her.

She was surprised when she saw him sit in front of her, she wanted to be left alone now she couldn't refuse his smiling innocent cute Stop it "Sure" was her reply.

"I know it's not in my place to ask but what's wrong?" he asked her. She was not the same person that was at the party she was more lively; right now she looks like shit.

"Nothing is wrong, besides I don't feel like talking now" she said and took a sip of her drink. True she liked his presence but she wasn't ready to talk to him like he knew her all too well.

I think it's better not to push it. "What about our date?" he asked bluntly

At the word "date" Cagalli almost spit her cappuccino on herself and him. "What?" almost yelling, almost. Thankfully there weren't many people in the Café.

He chuckled at her reaction finally she loosens up "Remember when I drove you from Dearka's you promised me you would show me around the city when you found out that I am new here" he stated

Flashback

The drive to her home was mostly silent when they reached Akatsuki, Orb 05 she pointed to where her building is "That's the one with the big weird gate" she told him.

"And that's my house" he pointed at a paige house across the street from her apartment building.

He parked in front of her building "So you've grown up here?" she asked

"No I just moved, this house belongs to my family. I'm here to study, GSD" he told her

"Well, it's good to have your family around" she smiled and continued "I don't know what I would do if I didn't know that Kira and my friends are near me" she then noticed his face, he seemed distant.

She waved her hands "Shinn, what's the matter?"

"I live alone" he looked into her eyes "My family's dead" then his head lowered again. He began to remember the horrible day he lost his family.

Cagalli didn't like the face that he's wearing she unbuckled herself from the seatbelt stood on her knees and hugged his head "It's ok…you're not alone" she knows how hard and painful it is to lose loved ones she and her brother lost their mother.

He was surprised at her action he blushed when her realized where his head was, in her chest. She blushed too when it dawned on her she sat again in her seat, their cheeks tomato red.

"Thanks…" he whispered

"Since your new here and all how about I take you out sometimes, you know show you around" she said smiling warmly at him

"I don't want to trouble you or…"

She interrupted him "What trouble is it? We're friends right?"

He looked at her how could he say no to anything that angelic face wanted. He yelled at himself mentally when he realized he liked her warmth and her smell, how he wanted her to hold him againhere she is telling she's your friend and all you could do is think perverted thoughts.

"Yes we are" though I hope we could become more than that, What if she already has someone? Before he could stop himself from asking his mouth blurted out the words "Cagalli…umm are you seeing anyone?"

The blonde was surprised at his question she raised her brows she wanted to speak "Forget it, it's sudden I guess I don't know what got over me" he said.

She giggled at him "Actually I've been with someone for nearly two years no" she sighed as she looked out the window "Well I better get going and don't forget about our date" she told him

"Good night" with that she got out of the car and entered the building

End of flashback

She regained her composure and said "Right, sorry I forgot about it, I've been kind of busy lately however I still hold my promise" then she blushed as she remembered how she held him that night he looked so cute and vulnerable. She smiled, it was a real smile for a second she forgot about a certain blue haired person.

"Good for a moment there I thought you forgot all about me" he made a cute pouty face.

"Never" was her sincere reply with a slight giggle at his cute face

He looked at his watch "I have to go now" he took out a pen and reached for a Kleenex and wrote down his number "This my number call me when ever your free" he grinned then added a "See ya" before he left her.

She folded the tissue and put it in her pocket. She continued to sip her drink as her mind again drifted to Asuran. The wind blows as it pleases.

She lost track of time, as her thoughts of the memories she shared with Asuran kept attacking her. It was overwhelming; she didn't know that this summer would be her last with him; tears began forming in her Amber eyes. I thought everything was perfect between us, I thought what we had would last forever.

She remembered how painful it was when she saw Yzak cheating on her in the gym at school 3 years ago. It hurt like a bitch. She didn't believe how he could have done this to her, he told her he adored her but there she was seeing him in the arms of another girl.

However the truth was revealed soon after when her friend Milly came looking for her. She told her that the girl tricked Yzak, sent him a message that Cagalli was waiting for him at gym, at the same time sent Cagalli one that said Yzak is waiting for her. She forced herself on the white-haired male and Cagalli just had a perfect timing and walked in on them when they're lips was stick to each other

Conille, the girl that was the cause of ending their relationship, had a crush on Yzak, more like obsessed she hated how close Yzak and Cagalli were and how much in love they appeared to be. She came up with a plan so that she would have Yzak to herself and shatter Cagalli's heart. Two birds with one stone.

Milly explained everything to Cagalli, then she and Yzak had a heart to heart talk, he apologized to her told her he still loved her but to his dismay Cagalli told him that she can't be with him, she fully understands what happen but she thought it's best to spend sometime away from each other. He didn't understand why she made that decision but he didn't want to lose her, even if she was just a friend he would learn to live by it, that's the least he could do after what she been through.

But this time the reason Asuran is leaving is completely different, she has no choice but to accept. She tried to help but he refused and saw it as pity. What's wrong with him can't he see I'm trying to keep us together. The pain was unbearable; her tears began flowing down her cheeks she can't hold it any longer she started to sob not caring if anyone is watching her. I love you; please don't leave me she said as if talking to Asuran. She was sobbing hard now.

Shinn again entered the Café when he spotted the Blonde at the same spot, he can hear her sobs, it ripped his heart seeing her the way she was, and he went to her sat next to her "Cagalli…what's wrong?" he put his arm over her shoulders.

She wiped her tears pushed him away and got up, taking a few steps toward the door don't come near me, she hated the fact that she liked his touch, a hand grabbed her wrist she stopped "Cagalli…"

"Can't you see I want to be left alone" she glared at him.

He released her and watched again her walking away figure. He stood there cursing himself that he shouldn't have bothered her and cursing himself that he couldn't comfort her. Who was he anyway to her? No one I guess.

Cagalli walked out of the Café; turned left she kept walking down the street her vision was blurred because of the tears that didn't stop coming out of her. Shit as she reached the corner of the street she fell on her knees crying hard, hugging herself. "Damn it" she screamed.

Shinn felt a tap on his shoulder he turned to see who it was. An old man "excuse me young lad, are you a friend of the young lady that left earlier?"

Shinn nodded. "Well then you better return this to her" he gave a wallet to Shinn which he saw earlier with Cagalli "And tell her to be careful next time"

Shinn thanked him and went to follow Cagalli. Only to see a man he met at the party kneeling down beside her.

Her scream was caught by the ears of people walking by, but there was a particular pair of ears that recognized the voice, across from her stood a man clad in jeans and a simple white t-shirt. He ran over to her when his blue eyes laid on her fallen figure.

He knelt down beside her and held her "Shhh shhh Cagalli, calm down" the familiar voice told her. Calm her now ask questions later.

She stiffened at first when she felt strong arms wrap around her but she soon relaxed when she recognized the sent and the voice, she raised her swollen filled with tears eyes "Yzak" she said before throwing herself at him.

She was relieved to see him if it was even possible she cried and sobbed harder than before.

They were on the ground. One arm still holding her as one hand caressed her back to calm her. Luckily not many people were around them but to those unfortunate who looked at the pair whether shockingly or disapprovingly they had to meet Yzak's cold angry glare, they all walked away when they met his eyes, some stumbling, some shivering from fear.

"Cagalli" he called to her as he tried to get up without letting go of her.

Somehow he managed to stand up with her "Come I'll take you home" he told her.

"He is leaving me" she managed to say between sobs

Yzak frowned, cursed mentally the green eyed alien. He didn't want to increase Cagalli's pain by cursing him aloud, besides all he wanted is to soothe her pain. She must be going through hell now; I've never seen her like this before.

"Let's get you home now ok?" he said to her softly. She nodded as they made their way to her apartment.

Shinn couldn't help but glare at them and felt a bang of jealousy it's him again He hated him even more now that he was able to be with her, that she would open up to him. His hand fisted on her wallet.
