A/N:Those of you that haven't noticed I have changed the Tittle of my story from "Lacus Stories" to "I'll wait for you".

Mrs. Zala

Chapter 3

I didn't know how long it was since I left the house, when I left I didn't have a clue on where I was going. But I had to leave I couldn't stay there right now. I needed to get away from him. Even though it was really late the streets of Plant was pretty lively clubs were open, couples were walking together holding hands. I turned a corner and I saw him, it was him, Athrun, his back was turned to me so I couldn't see his face but I knew it was him it had to be him. I walked closer to him and stopped when I saw a certain blonde standing in front of him smiling, tears were streaming down her face but she was still smiling. I walked closer to them but as I was getting closer they kept moving further and further away. I started running trying to catch up to them but it was no us, I could feel tears stinging at the back of my eyes

"No Athrun don't go…… don't leave me again" I yelled, tears were now flowing freely from my eyes and the image of them started to go blurry. I stopped running when they were out of sight, then everything turned pitch black and the only thing visible was myself. I fell to my knees and started sobbing I shook my head trying to wake up from this awful dream but it was no use.

"I told you he would leave you, but you didn't listen" I manly voice came from behind me, I jumped to my feet in fear and turned around to see a man clad in all black. He had brown shaggy hair and purple eyes.

"Kira" I whispered

"Lacus why can't you love me like your suppose to, can't you see were destined for each other". He said taking a few steps closer to me, I tried to move back but I couldn't it was like I was paralyzed. He grabbed my shoulders roughly and pulled me closer to him, "Why couldn't you just stay with me?" he whispered.

"I'm sorry Kira I couldn't I-I just couldn't love you the way you wanted me to because of-"

"Athrun" he said finishing my sentence, he grunted and before I knew it he pushed me hard to the floor and I fell on my side painfully. "Know one can love you the way I did, not even Athrun" and before he could say another word his form shattered to pieces like broking glass. I broke down and started crying again, I didn't know what else to do I wanted to wake up but I couldn't.

"Why are you crying?" I heard another voice from behind me, I recognized that voice. I quickly stood to my feet and saw him, my savior, my Athrun. He extended his arm to me and I hesitantly took it scared that if I got any closer he would move even further away from me.

"A-Athrun" I said wiping my tears away with the back of my hand, he gave me a warm smile and pulled me into his arms.

"Your safe now you don't have to cry anymore" he said whispering in my ear and at that moment I felt safe and not so lonesome. He pulled away from me and gave me a bright smile; I couldn't help but smile back at him now I really didn't want my dream to end, "Lacus will you wait for me?" I looked at him confused; I didn't know what he was talking about butI agreed to his question anyway. Before I could say another word his form disappeared right before my eyes. I tried looking for him but it was no use it was way to dark to see anything, I started calling out his name but it was no use, I feel to my knees and started crying again there was nothing I could do.

"ATHRUN!"

My eyes quickly flew open and I sat up in my bed andI was drenched in sweat my heart was beating so fast I thought it was going to jump out my chest. I lookedat the window and saw that it was still dark outside, I wiped the sweat off my forehead with the back of my hand. I jumped as the bedroom door flew open and Athrun rushed to my side. He was wearing a pair of sweat shorts with no shirt on. "Lacus are you alright?" he asked stroking my hair, I looked at him and then around the room. 'I remembered leaving the house but not coming back'.

"How did I get here?" I asked confused, I looked at him and saw him scowling. He moved is hand from my hair to stroke my cheek.

"When you left" he started, he looked at me with a pained expression on his face, he was probably upset that I left. I leaned into his hand and closed my eyes, when I opened them I saw that his pained expression had melted away. "An hour after you left the house I went looking for you, I saw your car parked inside the driveway and you were sleeping in it. So I brought you back upstairs." he said smiling and removing his hand from my cheek,

"Oh" I said looking around the room trying to avoid his piercing green eyes.

"Lacus I'm sorry about before. I…." he whispered, I looked up at him andplaced my hand on his cheek, and smiled at him. He moved my hand from his cheek and pulled me into his arms, I wrapped my arms around his neck and closed my eyes. I buried my face in his neck and he slightly pulled away from me to rest his forehead against mine. He brushed his lips against mine in a feather light touch, he then held my face in his hands and kissed me deeply. I pulled us further down on the bed and moved my hands to caress his bare back, he broke the kiss and started planting kisses all over my face and neck. He rolled us over so that I was on top and slid his hands under my nightgown to caress my exposed thigh. I gave a little gasp from where my face was buried in his neck, he started pulling my nightgown further up and paused when it was half way up. I looked at him and gave him a reassuring smile and bent my head down to nip at his neck, but he gently pushed me off him to sit up. "Lacus I can't" he said getting up and heading for the door. I quickly got up not wanting him to leave and blocked his path.

"Athrun" I said hugging him, "I-I don't want to be alone" I whispered into his chest.

"Lacus I-"

"Please Athrun" I said cutting him off and looking into his green orbs, he gave a sigh of defeat and I smiled happily. I took his hand and lead him back to the bed, we laid there holding each other not saying a word. I looked up at him and saw that he was asleep. I snuggled down closer to him resting my head on his chest listening to his steady heart beat. I smiled secretively happy that I wasn't alone. Then I too feel asleep.

It was dark and gloomy when I woke up I looked at the clock beside me on the nightstand 1:00 p.m. I yawned and stretched like a cat, I was still tired from last night. I rolled on my side and saw Athrun still peacefully sleeping. I brushed a strand of his disheveled hair out his face with the back of my hand and smiled when he started to stir. My eyes traveled from his handsome face to his well sculpted abs, 'he's gorgeous'.

I frowned a little remembering what he said to me last night before I left the house, "You know I loved Cagalli right. Lacus it was hard for me to choose you know that". I shook my head trying to get those words out of my mind but it was know use, more unanswered questions kept popping up in my head. Athrun started to stir again, I looked over at him and his eyes were open.

"Good morning sleepy head" I said with a half smile, he smiled back at me and yawned.

"What are you doing today?" he asked resting his head on the pillow and closing his eyes.

"Nothing why?" I didn't say anything more just waited for him to continue.

"Because Yzak called yesterday and invited us to his engagement party", I gave him a confused look and he chuckled. "I know what you mean Yzak is not really the type to go and get married. He's getting married to Shio Hahnenfub, and he wants to know if we would like to come".

"Are you going?" I asked hoping he would say yes.

"If you go", he said and smiled at me. He was always smiling know a days, sometimes I just can't help but smile too. He's still the same Athrun I knew long ago, but now he's like a different person he's not as cold as he use to be. "Well are you or not".

"Sure I'll go, it's not like I have anything better to do". I said. He sighed and shoved his face into his pillow. "Well I'm going to go and take a shower, oh and by the way when is this party?", I asked.

"Tomorrow" he said getting up and leaving the room. I looked at him wide-eyed. When I was finish taking a shower and getting dressed, I headed downstairs and saw Athrun dressed as well talking on the phone. "Yeah I'm on my way. No I'm sure she won't mind, are you sure. Well are you at least going to visit me". I poured myself a bowl of cereal and waited for him to get off the phone. "Yeah can't wait to see you guys, it's been a long time. Anyway look out for me", he said hanging up the phone and heading for the door.

"Athrun where are you going", I said from where I was in the kitchen.

"Out", he said and quickly and went out the door. I went to the window and watched as he pulled out the driveway andtook offdown the street. I sighed and went into the living and plopped down on the couch.

"What's happened to us", I said silently to myself. I threw my arm over my eyes and tried to remember the good times me and Athrun shared.

"Athrun you don't have to take me out every holiday you know" I said smiling, we always went out on a special occasion, my birthday, Valentine's Day, Christmas. Almost every holiday he would take me out and shower me with all these expensive gifts.

"What if I want to, is it such a crime to want to take out my beautiful princess" he said nuzzling my neck as we boarded the glass elevator of the most expensive restaurant in Plants.

"Isn't it beautiful?" I said admiring the city lights as they sparkled in the dark night. I walked closer to elevator to get a better look; it was the first week of February and today was my birthday. It had been snowing very lightly this whole week compare to last's. I turned back to look at Athrun, his hands were stuffed in his pocket and he was staring floor, it looked like he was in deep thought. "Athrun, what's wrong?" I asked concerned, this wasn't my usual Athrun. Usually I would always turn and see him watching me, especially since I was wearing his favorite dress he bought me. "Athrun" I said again, he still didn't answer. He looked up at me and moved to where I was standing in the elevator, he looked at me and pressed the stop button on the elevator.

After a long silence he finally spoke, "Lacus would you stay with me forever, no matter what?"

"Yes" I said without hesitation, he looked at me and smiled. He pulled me into his arms and planted a kiss to my forehead. He rested his forehead on top of my head and I closed my eyes and took in the sent of his cologne. He pressed the stop button again and the elevator started moving, he cupped my face and placed a soft kiss to my lips. When the kiss ended he pulled me back in his arms and whispered in my ear, "You look cute when you blush", he said. He started laughing when he saw how red my face was, I tried to cover my reddened face with my hands but he pulled them away. The elevator finally stopped.

Finally reaching our destination he encircled his arm around my waist as the doors slowly opened; he pulled me into his arms once again. "I love you Lacus" he said tenderly, and kissed me once more.

"I love you too"

I felt tears slide down my cheeks and quickly wiped them away with the back of my hand, "Why do I love you so much?" I said out loud. Suddenly I heard a knock on the door, "I wonder who that could be". I padded barefoot to the front door and opened it and was greeted with a bright smile.

"Hi Lacus, it's been a long time". My eyes widened and my mouth opened and closed like a fish

"Kira".
