Author's Note:
Okay, it is me again, I am back! Yeah and I am so…happy, delighted to write because my friend, not rheii, one of my new classmates in my new school, reviewed this fic! Well, elementalist, answering your question about Mia turning to a fairy…well, to tell you readers the truth, it is the first time this question is asked to me. Well, the answer is because when I wrote this fic, during my semester break, I had not called rheii, kind of my editor/beta reader and pau, my number one critic, was busy with her debate club and so I did not have any choice and no one to turn to ask for their opinion. In addition, I think that in the start of the story, chapter one, I have tried to impose; tried to create a funny atmosphere so that you guys will like the fic so it's kind of planned at the same time. BTW, I am COURAGEous enough to ask the opinion of my classmates, right elementalist? Another thing, this fic is just starting so people, gear up and enjoy the wild ride. This fic is just getting better and better!
Anyways, my readers thank you for reading this fic! Now, presenting chapter fourteen of the famous (as if) Topsy-turvy!
Chapter Fourteen: I'm far away from home
Let us advance our clocks exactly at lunchtime, destination, Friday's…
The waiter who took their orders had brought their meals and drinks in.
"So guys, let us first discuss the JS Prom which is nearer than the graduation. Now, what would be our theme?" Alex took a sip in her coffee.
Ezrael shifted his sitting position, "How about AleEza4Eva?"
Athrun spitted out the juice he was drinking, Alex sneeze at the opinion and Mark almost swallowed the knife he used in cutting his steak.
"Quite…odd in my opinion." Mark received a death glare from Ezrael that caused him to faint.
Athrun tried to collect himself again, "It should be relevant for seniors and juniors and not some crap that you want to tell the world that Alex loves you, know that Ezrael?"
"Then what do you do suggest?" he inquired, "Probably you want it to be Antoine's Stupidity?"
Athrun sighed at Ezrael's stupidity. Now, he really doubts that Ezrael is the son of Lacus and Kira because in the name of god, who would be this stupid, "How about Hope of the Country?"
She flashed a smile, "That's great and sounds kind of catchy. Mark, right that down, it is good stuff…Mark?" she saw the poor person who just fainted due to the death glare courtesy of Ezrael.
She shook her head, "Anyways, where would this be held? In our school gymnasium, a hotel or elsewhere?"
"How about a hotel? Wouldn't that stimulate our legs a bit to dance?" Athrun suggested.
She nodded, "How about you, Ezrael?"
"I agree with him for once."
"Great. Then we just need to scout for the hotel and assign the senior and junior assembly for the accommodation and food committee." She said and took a bite.
Ezrael then again shifted his sitting position, "Uhh…Alex, I'm just wondering if you have a partner for the prom?"
"Yes."
His eyes widen, "Who?"
"Antoine of course!" she replied and continued to eat.
"You!" he exclaimed, eyeing Athrun.
"I have already asked him, right Antoine?" she elbowed him and made him cough a forced, 'YES'.
"NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!" he said as he ran away, dragging Mark along with him.
Now, Alex faced Athrun, "I hope you don't mind of what I had said and you'll say yes right?"
He just nodded stiffly, "Won't your dad mind if he sees us together?"
"Nah, "she said and took another bite, "That geezer is too insensitive and too much selfish to know my activities at all!"
The word geezer made his eyebrows twitched and his fist clenched tightly.
"You okay?" acting as if she did not offend him but of course, she does not know that Athrun is her dad and she does not know that she had offended him.
He allowed the anger to move away and decided to let patience come in, "I'm fine." He still sounded angry.
"Okay" she then finished her food and stood, "Shall we go now, Antoine?"
He loved her smile and somehow, her smile is similar to Cagalli's .Thinking about her reminded him about their true love and his true feelings towards her. How he missed her.
He took her hand and smiled back.
Again, Let us zoom at 6:00 P.M., destination, Zala Mansion…
The door opened and as usual, Cagalli hugs her beloved daughter and shakes hand with him. If only he'll be given a chance, then he'd like to be the old Athrun again and kiss her back passionately. One catch is, he needs to find Mia to get the curse broken but somehow, and he does not want to be old again for some unknown reason.
Before he slept, he said, "I'm far away from home."
End of Chapter
Author's Note:
I do not know why in the last chapter, you people are guessing that this fic is ending but you are incorrect! Yup, you are and now probably, you are thinking that it will end because of the last thing Athrun said, aren't you? Well, good news, it will not. In the next chapter, close friends will come and help Athrun out in his predicament? Who can they be?
Wait for the next chapter to find out!
