Disclaimer: I do not own Gundam Seed

A/N: This is the 2nd last chapter of this whole story, because as I said, there are only six chapters in this story. I seriously don't know how long or how short will this chapter be, but I don't really care even if it is too short. Anyway, enjoy reading! In this chapter, I really kind of pitied Lacus, but I like Fllay! Oh well, you'll see why…

Chapter 5: Sad Discoveries

The next day, lacus woke from her slumber and saw Kira at his desk, sleeping with his head down. Lacus took a blanket and covered Kira with it just in case he caught a cold. He's so cute even when he's sleeping, Lacus thought with a smile on her face.

Suddenly, Lacus saw a piece of paper that caught her eye. She looked at the pictures and the words on the piece of paper. So that must be what kept Kira awake yesterday night, Lacus thought as she clearly looked at the piece of paper, which was supposed to be the planning of Kira and her wedding, or that was what Lacus thought herself.

Kira moved a bit in his slumber and shocked Lacus a little. As Kira mumbled something that Lacus wasn't able to make up, Lacus backed away just in case he wakes up.

As Lacus went out of the room, she made breakfast for the kids and Kira and herself. She was very excited, who wouldn't if their wedding is only three days away? As Lacus was making breakfast, she smiled and sang softly and gently to herself, laughing occasionally as she thought of the wedding.

"Gosh, what happened to her? Is she sick or something?" One of the kids said to his other friends as they peeped inside the kitchen. Apparently, her melodic voice attracted five of the kids into the kitchen. The other kids sighed and shook their heads.

As Lacus finished preparing breakfast, she came out and saw the kids watching television. "Breakfast's ready!" Lacus called to the kids. The children turned their heads, upon seeing the oatmeal, they sighed. They hated oatmeal and it was a total torture to consume the not-fit-even-for-a-devil food into their innocent stomach. (A/N: No hatred towards oatmeal or anything. Don't be offended, people who loves oatmeal.)

Lacus shook her head and said, "No complains. Oatmeal is very healthy, you know." The kids gave a look of disgust and reluctantly went to the dining table. "Where's Mr Kira?" One of the kids asked as he and the other orphans arrived at the table.

"He's still sleeping. He was planning the wedding. I think like me, he must be very excited too." Lacus said and smiled to herself, humming a melodious melody. Another kid smiled and said, "You will look very pretty on the wedding day, Miss Lacus." The other children nodded vigorously and flashed their best smile, hoping to escape the oatmeal.

Lacus seems to know what they're thinking. She smiled and said, "Thank you. But that isn't going to stop me from making you eat your oatmeal." The children were disappointed. "Now be good and eat up." Lacus said as she walked towards her room, bringing a plate of breakfast and a cup of tea for Kira.

As she went into the room, she was Kira stirring about, and then he begins to open his eyes. "Breakfast's ready, Kira!" Lacus called as she brought the breakfast to the table where Kira was.

"Thank you, Lacus. But I'll wash up first." Kira thanked. He went to get a new set of clothes and washed himself up. After that, he proceeded to his breakfast. Suddenly, the telephone rang, and Kira hoped that it was her, but he knew it was impossible. Lacus picked up and she nodded and said a few words, then she hung up the phone.

"Kira," Lacus called, and Kira looked at her, "Athrun called. He said he wants to meet up with you. Since you two were best friends and all, I understand how Athrun felt since you haven't met for weeks." Kira nodded and said, "I understand. I kind of miss talking to him too. It's just that he and Cagalli are now being together and all, and I don't want anyone who see me be crazy and all."

It was true. Kira was considered an ace pilot and it was he who kind of put the war to an end. People would usually see him and whisper behind his back, like "Isn't that Kira Yamato?" "Isn't that the ace pilot who fought at the previous war?" Gosh, how he hate those people saying things about him behind his back. Sure they weren't saying anything bad or offensive, but he doesn't like it all the same.

"So, you want to meet him? He said he'll be waiting at the café at the nearby town." Lacus explained. Kira's heart skipped a beat. If the café Athrun was meaning to say where he met Fllay, then there might be a chance into running into her again. "Sure. I'll go meet him. What time?" Kira questioned. "At one o'clock, two more hours." Kira thanked her and went off.

"Why are you leaving so soon?" Lacus asked in a confusing tone. "Well, since I'll be meeting Athrun, I'll have to get some sort of gift for him and Cagalli, right? So I'll just go a little earlier. I'll be back kind of late." Kira replied. Lacus nodded and waved her hand at Kira, and called to him, "Be careful. Come back home safely!" Kira nodded and then went off.

Kira got into the car and drove off to the town. He was wondering if he might see Fllay again, with a bit of sheer luck. Kira replayed the previous meeting they had, and something strikes him, Fllay was running the direction opposite the café, she might be working there! What if not? He was very confused. But it still made him feel good that he was meeting Athrun and might have a little bit of chance into meeting Fllay.

After Kira left, Lacus begin to clean the house. As she was cleaning one of the drawers of the desk, she found an interesting book. On the book cover read: Kira's Diary. "This looks interesting." Lacus said to herself. She only hoped that Kira wouldn't mind. As she flipped to the latest entry of the diary, Lacus face went blank and she dropped the diary, although she did not realized it. "Kira…" Lacus whispered sadly.

When Kira arrived at the town, he went to one of the gift shops and bought a box of quality chocolate for Cagalli, he knew she had a sweet tooth, and he bought a little diary-like book for Athrun.

At one o'clock sharp, Kira and Athrun met at the café opposite a boutique called 'Little Kiss' (A/N: I know the shop name is stupid, but I have no creativity when coming to boutiques names.) Kira handed the gifts to Athrun and they talked about what happened while being separated.

"I'm looking forward to your wedding, Kira." Athrun said. "Thanks. But when are you and Cagalli getting married like us?" Kira teased. Athrun sighed and said tiredly, "Don't know. She's a natural and I'm a coordinator, even if we married, there might be dissatisfaction among the people. Anyway, we're happy with our life now."

Kira smiled and looked at the surrounding shops. As Kira looked at 'Little Kiss', he thought he saw a girl looking at him with sad eyes, tears forming and dropped. The girl then turned away and Kira thought she looked like Fllay. But he doesn't know or realized that the girl was indeed Fllay.

Fllay went back to the room behind the shop and went on designing the dresses, but she couldn't concentrate. The person she loved, Kira Yamato, was going to be married in just three days. She knew that Kira might already be in love with Lacus, so why was she still persistent about her feelings?

Darn you, Fllay! Why can't you just forget about him! He doesn't love you anymore, he loves Lacus Clyne. She is so perfect for him. Why are you being so stupid? Why are you still in love with him? Fllay's inner thoughts called out to her, or so she thought. But little did Fllay know that all those thoughts are her own. Forgetting those feelings, huh? How did it become so hard? Or was it like that ever since? Fllay questioned herself.

She stopped her designs and immediately flipped the sign which now read 'CLOSED'. Then she pulled down the curtains and went straight up to her room and cried her heart out.

Meanwhile, Kira was surprised that the shop, which open a few minutes ago, was now closed. "People are just like that." Athrun said, Kira faced him and saw that he was also looking at the shop. "They just like to avoid some things that shouldn't be avoided. Or else it will just worsened the situation." Athrun continued.

Kira didn't replied. He was stuck in his own thoughts after hearing Athrun's words…
