Author's Note:
People, thanks for all of the reviews! It really helps me. BTW, ritachi, I thought you mentioned in your profile that you will not tell your gender but why whenever you review, you add the phrase prince of angst. Anyway, for general info, this story might reach twenty chapters or so.
Now, presenting chapter fifteen of the famous (as if) Topsy-turvy!
Disclaimer: (always forget this portion) I do not own GS or GSD.
Chapter Fifteen: My Passion
His emerald eyes slowly opened as the morning heat hit his face. His gaze shifted at his alarm clock and read, 8:00 A.M.; Saturday. He sighed in relief. He thought he overslept but it turns out that he is save for the day. He yawns and stretched his arms towards the ceiling.
Downstairs…
"What is for breakfast mom?" a certain eighteen-year-old teen asked the goddess of victory.
"Pancakes" she replied in a monotone. Cagalli balanced three plates and placed it on the table. "Honey, why won't you call Antoine?"
"Okay mom." She then adjusted her seating position towards the staircase, "ANTOINE! GET DOWN HERE!" she then turned back to her mom who just smiled at her.
With Athrun…
Geez! Why has not she inherited my cool demeanor? He thought as he made his way to the kitchen and sat beside her, "Good morning, Mrs. Zala!" he greeted and nodded at Alex instead of greeting her.
The blonde princess flashed her gorgeous smile, "Good morning Antoine! Did you have a good sleep or have you been having nightmares because of my dearest daughter?"
"Mom!" Alex shouted in protest.
She laughed lightly, "Just kidding." She said, "Anyway, after you two finish your pancakes, have a quick bath because Alex' uncle Shin will help you find the hotel for your JS Prom."
"Okay." They replied at the same time.
Cagalli nodded, "Well now, I'll be going to work. Behave yourselves kids!"
"Bye!" they said in unison as they heard the door open and slam close.
With two guys who are pretending to bird watch in the city…
"Why are we doing this again?" the younger brother asked his older brother for the tenth time.
He looked straight at his raven eyes, "For the last time, the young lady assigned us and because he is a family friend."
"Ohh…" was all he said but then again, he started an inquiry, "And why are we SPYING WHILE SITTING ON A TREE while the young lady is out there, finding a possible foolish soul mate who can she borrow money to?"
He tried to suppress his anger, "For the last time, my stupid little brother, WE are SITTING on a TREE because SHE DIDN'T GIVE US any MONEY!"
"That's why…" he said this time and his mouth started to open again, ready to ask him but his older brother was faster and taped his mouth.
"HA HA HA!" he laughed evilly in syllables as his brother almost fainted and die.
Back with Athrun and Alex…
"Hurry up Alex!" Athrun heard footsteps rushing towards him.
"Here!" she tried to catch her breath.
The former mobile suit pilot entered, "You guys ready?"
The two nodded and got inside his car.
As soon as Shin played the radio, the sweet eighteen-year-old girl leaned her head on Athrun's shoulder and entered dreamland.
He lightly laughed and was amazed of her sudden change of behavior. To tell you the truth, it had been a tough week for her and she deserves the right to take a nap. He cocked his head to the side and saw the beach. That scenery reminded him of a beautiful memory.
Start of Flashback
"Where's that idiot?" Cagalli removed her shoes and walked with her bare feet. She then had a sight of the blue haired prince, sitting while admiring the ocean.
"The Ocean
By Athrun Zala
At one glace, the ocean might seem peaceful,
At one glance, the ocean might seem violent and
At one glance, the ocean might seem ever changing.
The ocean is one of God's gifts.
The ocean is full of mystery just like the woman standing here beside me.
"Athrun…" Cagalli gasped.
Although it might be in fury in times,
I will never give up to see its true beauty
For I will never rest before that day comes."
Then, he stood and slowly approached her.
She felt that she glued on the sand. It seemed that time had stopped for the young couple.
He then slipped the ring in her slim finger. "I hope you will keep this promise until death does us apart, Mrs. Cagalli Yula Athha-Zala."
She then closed the gap between them, "No, I will comply with it forever."
He then smiled at her and hugged the blonde princess. "I as well…forever. Never will our souls part ways."
End of Flashback
Did that really happen? He then touched his lips and let his other hand ran through his hair.
The traffic light turned red and the driver of the car halted, "They've missed you…for a very long time already, Athrun."
He did not catch that and fell asleep as well together with his dearest daughter.
A smile crept on the former pilot's face.
End of Chapter
