Chapter 5
Cagalli and Yzak made it back to her home, as they walked into the empty dark apartment, he let go of Cagalli and turned on the lights. She made it to the couch and sat on it cross legged, he came up to her and sat copying and facing her, he was relieved that she stopped crying on their way but her face was beat red and swollen.
She sniffed, he grabbed a tissue and put it to her nose "Blow" he told her softly
She blew and then burst out laughing "Yzak I'm not a kid anymore" then her laughter became bitter and silence greeted them again. He didn't say or do anything else, he waited for her to start. But as we all know our sexy Yzak (A/N: sorry couldn't help it, he's just too hot anyway back to the story) he grew impatient after 2 minutes she was staring at her legs.
"Cagalli…tell me what happened?" he asked
Then the blonde told him what had happened between her and Asuran, she then asked him
"Was it wrong of me to suggest my father's help, I mean I told him that his father could pay him back I didn't say he'd give it freely" she looked into his eyes waiting for an answer and then it came
"I can tell you that I think it's wrong for him to leave you for that reason however I think I understand why he refuses, Zala hates to be a burden to anybody…" she interrupted him
"He won't be and he can pay it back anytime…"
"Cagalli…" he put a strand of hair behind her ear and continued "He's a proud man, but I can also understand what you're trying to do"
And then from all the moments that could happen it happened now…
A large growl can be heard from the mid section of Cagalli she hugged her stomach, cheeks slightly tainted
Yzak chuckled "By the sound of it you forgot to feed the beast…" he said it trying to lighten the mood
"YZAK!" She yelled at him embarrassed
"Come on it's not like it's the first time besides it's you who named it Beast" he chuckled, She huffed and turned her head away from him at least she's not crying
They were cut off by the sound of Yzak's cell phone "Hello"
"Oh Shiho…Sorry I'm kind of busy…Sure…Yeah…Ok I'll call you tomorrow" he closed his phone
"I'm guessing things are going good between you too" as she placed her hands on his knees and shook them, a slight pink could be found on his cheeks Aha I knew it
She smirked at him, the kind of smirk I knew you'd like her then it hit her What of she wanted to spend some time with him? He refused because of me…"Yzak you don't have to stay, you should go to her"
"No its ok I can't leave you alone now"
"Who said I'm alone" she retorted "When I have a friend like you" she smiled at him
He wanted to tell her he is staying "I won't take no for an answer" She got up from the couch took hold of both his hands and dragged him.
"Come on Yzak, I can't let a good girl slip away from you"
"But Cagalli" She glared at him. He knows no matter what he couldn't make her change her mind "Alright fine but first do you anything to eat?"
"Yes, I got some curry in the fridge don't worry about me" she said
"I'll go, call me if you need anything or even if you don't ok?" he told her
"And another thing" he continued "Promise me"
She raised her brows in question "What?"
"You won't cry" he said softly to her as he smiled down at her small figure, caressing her cheek.
She smiled back at him and looked directly in his blue eyes and whispered "I promise"
They hugged "Eat well, wash up and sleep tight"
"Hai Onii-sama" she replied
He kissed her cheek "You know Kira hates me because of that"
"Part of why I call you Onii-sama is to bug Kira and the other is because I truly love you as if you're my brother…Now off you go before she changes her mind"
"Good night" with that he departed.
She did as Yzak told her, went to the kitchen heated her meal, ate it while watching one of her Favorite shows "InuYasha", in between her mind drifted to and fro from Asuran
Back to Shinn, He followed them but kept his distance not that he was Spying or anything, it's just because it's the same way to his house. He didn't like the way he was feeling when he saw him hold her, it irritates him and at the same time bothering him never had he felt this way toward a girl he just met before. He liked and hated the feeling at the same time. He got into his house still clutching Cagalli's wallet, He entered his bedroom throw it on the bed got undressed and went to take a shower after the long day, he spent it with Rey and a bunch of guys, they hanged out, did things that guys do, they were cool.
Finished the shower, wrapped a towel around his waist, walked to his bed and sat on it, another towel hung at his shoulders. He picked the wallet and eyed it should he open it? It's not of his business, but still he wanted to know what Kind of a person Cagalli is? Most importantly he wanted to know if there were pictures inside and if there were who would it belong to?
Curiosity getting the best of him, he opened her wallet with a little guilt. There were pictures indeed, quite few. She must really treasure her memories first were of a young Cagalli beside her what looked to be a young Kira behind them two adult couple, he guessed their parents. They looked like a happy family, then he remembered his family,
That damned day that he lost them, he was waiting for them the school soccer field, angry with them that they didn't show up. His match was over, his team won the tournament, but where were his parents? No where. He went home that day mad at them but when he arrived he was surprised to see his aunt waiting for him instead of his parents, he got confused to see her began crying as he walked in on her, she got up and ran toward him, engulfed him in a motherly hug that was saying she's sorry.
Sorry! About what? Then the wretched news were delivered to him by her lips as she was sobbing, he couldn't believe it, they were driving to come see him but unfortunately they got in a car accident that got them killed. And here he was angry that they didn't come, he felt guilt for blaming them for something they didn't do, and tears ran down the 14 year old raven haired boy. I'm sorry I didn't know. His aunt told him through the years to never blame himself, he didn't know.
He tried to brush away the sad memories he made a promise to his parents and his younger sister Mayu that he would live his life for them, his aunt told him that they'd be happier that way, they'd hate to see him waste his life, he made a promise on their grave stones and he intends to keep it.
He wiped away a single tear that left his ruby eye, and looked at the next picture,
Still a younger Cagalli but a bit older around 8, they were in a play ground She was holding a young boy who seemed like Dearka in a death grip, another girl tugging at her shirt and at the back a smirking young Yzak.
Third picture was what appeared to be Cagalli in her teens trying to break what seemed like a fight between Yzak and Kira, Lacus standing there with her "Ara" face. Shinn couldn't help but feel a little jealous.
Fourth picture, Cagalli (current) smiling happily in the arms of a blue-haired man, they looked very happy together. Who is he? He remembered a few times where he seen him comes out and go in Cagalli's building. Not that he was spying or anything God forbid. It just happens that he was looking that way. That was it, he put the pictures back. He decided that he would return the wallet now, he glanced at the clock 8:30 there's still time. Got dressed, out and walked straight to her building, He didn't know which one Cagalli's apartment was, but he knew she was on the third floor, took the elevator, pressed the "3" button, got out luckily there were only two doors in that floor, Sting Oakley written on one of the doors. He walked to the other one and rang the bell.
Cagalli had just finished dinner; she wondered who might it me Yzak? She got up and put her plate on the table, opened the door
"Shinn…" surprised "What are you doing here?"
"Sorry to bother you…" then he noticed an orange-red spot at the corner of Cagalli's mouth Cute he blushed "I'm just here to return your wallet" he took the walled out of his pocket and handed it to her "You forgot it at the Café…See ya"
He turned his back "Wait…Thanks, why don't you come in?" shit shit shit shit did I just invite him in? well it's better than spending the evening alone…but still what if he's some psycho or something? Damn I think Yzak and Kira are rubbing off on me how can a hot guy like him be something bad…shit shit shit shit BAD Cagalli, not supposed to think that way
Shinn watched with amusementthe battle that the blonde was having with herself, he wasn't sure about what though. He stood there watching her.
Cagalli realized it and blushed "Sorry, come on in" she said
He nodded "Thanks" he was glad to be invited in by her and there no chance in hell that he would say NO.
She closed the door, he stood in front of her facing her, her back to the door, he approached her, his hand went up to her face as he leaned towards her What the fuck
And then felt his thumb wiping at the corner of her lips
"You got something there" he whispered as he wiped.
She gasped "Shit, I'm sorry, excuse me" and she walked to the table removed her plate.
Disappeared a while, and then came back with two sodas, found him standing beside her mother's picture "You're mother" she nodded "She's beautiful" he said
"Thanks…here" as she handed him the soda
He sat on an arm chair while she was back sitting in her same spot. She looked at her wallet, opened it, she wanted to show him the other picture, then she smirked and looked at him.
What's she smirking about? Damn did she find out that I opened it?
"So what do you think of the pictures?" she asked him
"How did you know?" shocked
"Well Einstein, I put my pictures in an order that's why I know"
His gaze fell to the floor that all of sudden held a lot of interest to him,
"It's ok I don't mind I was just going to show it to you…" she patted on the space next to her "Come here"
She doesn't understand it, she just feel like she can trust him, she wanted to share some things with him. She liked him that she was sure of it but why she didn't know.
He got up and sat next to her, feeling the warmth of her body was nice. She leaned her back into the couch and he did too "See this" the family picture "This was taken before my mom fell ill, she died a year after, she was a very caring person, loved everyone, especially her family"
"I'm sorry…" he whispered
She shook her head "No it's ok, I know she's happy wherever she is and I'm sure she's looking out for me" she smiled at him then noticed how close their faces were and she could feel his breath as he could feel hers. She turned he head back to the pictures and held the Dearka death grip one
"He deserved that one" she laughed "He was my first friend, beside Kira, he said something to Milly that upset her and then I almost choked him to death, if it wasn't for Milly he'd probably be dead, Yzak was still new around us but we accepted him, then we grew to like him, he sure is something" she smiled at the memories
"Good memories ha?" he sighed as he remembered his family and old friends
"Mhmm…and This one here" she pointed at the Kira, Yzak Fight "When my beloved twin brother found out that I'm dating his so called "Enemy" but luckily I was there" She laughed remembering the day.
"You dated him?" he asked curious
"My first love, we were together for four years" I don't know why I'm telling him this, but it sure feels good having him with me
"Then a misunderstanding happened and it lead to our end" she told him "But still I love him" he grimaced at this "More like a brother though" he felt relieved what the hell is wrong with me he yelled in his head.
She then held the last picture Asuran Zala, in his arms how happy she looked with him. She sighed, a heavy sigh, she could feel her emotions stir up again, the pain I made a promise to Yzak "This is Asuran, I'm not sure you met him"
"I didn't" he said "Who is he?"
"My boyfriend, ex-boyfriend I mean…" she stopped
"You don't have to tell me anything if you don't feel like it" he must be the reason why she was in that state earlier, I'm glad the white-haired freak calmed her
"Thank you, sorry" she said it in almost a whisper
"Don't apologize you didn't do anything" he replied
She smiled, then heard a faint sound of Bleach Opening theme looked up at the T.V
"I love Bleach" she told him.
"Yeah it's cool"
She picked up the remote raise the volume up a bit and sunk back next to Shinn "Wanna watch it with me?" she grinned
"Sure" he smiled
She rested her head on his shoulder and hugged her knees, surprised but pleased he relaxed a bit…They watched it together, sometime during it they both fell a sleep, Shinn with one arm around Cagalli.
