Chapter 24
"Mmmmmm that was delicious!" said a smiling Cagalli as she leaned back in her chair, "If I knew this is what it was like to date I would have done it a long time ago! Free food nothing is better!"
"Aren't you over exaggerating just a bit." Replied Athrun, "Who said you wouldn't pay part of the bill?"
"Ha ha very funny Athrun."
"No seriously, who said you weren't paying part of the bill? How do you think I can afford this?" mocked Athrun nodding his head as if to say he was right.
"Because I know for a fact that when dates occur the asker is the payer!" laughed Cagalli at Athrun's hurt expression, "That was the only thing I learned from 'Proper Manner for Pretty Laides' course I had to take."
"Umph. You really ought to not eat so much it's very expensive here."
"Are you saying I'm fat!"
"Or course not!"
"Yes you are!"
"How would you get that impression."
"Because you're puffing out your cheeks like you're a blimp!"
"No I am not!"
"Yes you are!"
"No I'm not!"
"Yes you are!"
"I think you have something on your face."
"Wha…." Cagalli didn't get to finish because Athrun leaned over the table toward her and brushed the tomato sauce off of her cheek. She was now trying desperately to hide her bright red face.
"There you look so much nicer without tomato sauce on your face. I suppose they didn't each you to clean your face at 'Proper Manner for Pretty Ladies' did they?"
"Umph."
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
"I thought we were watching romance." Groaned Mirallia looking at the selection Dearka and Yzak had picked up from the movie store.
"You said anything about that?" asked Yzak trying to decide between "SAW 2" or "SAW 1."
"These aren't exactly the kind of movies we were thinking of for tonight." murmured Lacus picking up "Scary Movie 3" and reading the back.
"Oh I haven't seen this one!" shouted a very excited Shiho as she looked though the bag and pulled out "House of Wax", "You guys actually made some pretty good selections."
"See," said Dearka, "Someone appreciates the time and energy that it took to go to the movie store and rent these."
"Umph. She'll watch anything with horror and disgusting written in the review she is not a fair comparison." grumbled Mir staring at the jumping for joy Shiho.
"Hey you never gave us a gene to choose from so we went with what we thought he majority would like." Stated Yzak
"What are you talking about there are six of us the majority would have to be four. So lets see Yzak, Shiho and Dearka like horror and whatever else in that bag." began Lacus, "Me and Mir want fantasy or romance. So that leaves…. KIRA!"
"Uhhh well I ummmm…" started Kira
"Pick a side buster or leave right now!" threatened Shiho raising a fist
"What if I were to say I didn't want to choose." Five faces began smiling at him, "Uhhh guys you're kinda creeping me out!"
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
"Come on Cagalli no need to ignore me."
"First you call me fat.."
"I did not call you fat the words never even crossed my lips."
"Then you threaten not to pay the bill," raising a hand to stop Athrun from talking she continued to tick the things on her fingers to represent all the mistakes that had happened, "When you know that I didn't bring any money!"
"Hey is so bad to presume that my date might want to pay."
"Then you wipe the sauce off my face a criticize me on my table manners."
"Okay that's three anymore to add to your growing list?"
"Then you whisk me out of the high end restaurant before desert you better have good reason as to why I'm not getting dessert!"
"If I bought you dessert we would never be able to leave."
"It's those kind of comments that make me glad you are about to run into a wall."
"Wha…"
BANG!
"Are you alright?"
"Don't act so traumatised…" groaned Athrun trying to sit up.
"Maybe next time you should pay more attention to your surroundings so you can avoid all those nasty walls." laughed Cagalli
"Umph. If I didn't know better I'd have to say my lovely girlfriend hates me."
"Hate is such a strong word.. how about…. Wants you dead in a coffin eaten by dogs."
"That's not a word and let's say the feeling mutual."
"Now who's acting traumatised."
"I'm the one who ran into the wall I'm allowed to act like this."
"Whatever you say slow poke!" shouted Cagalli as she began running toward the park leaving Athrun trailing behind.
"Hey wait up!"
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
"Now it's time for the romance flick 'Kira and Teddy Bear'! The romantic tragedy about how a he she loves a bear but they can never be together because of their moving differences! " laughed Mir passing around the popcorn to the other 4 friends.
"There is no way I'm doing this besides why do I have to play Juliet turned boy. The Teddy Bear is an inanimate object it won't even move I'll wait up here on this table for eternity before it says its lines!" groaned Kira he was wearing one of Lacus's dresses and had cruelly been cornered and was now wearing make-up and the boys bless their souls had stuffed to baseballs down the front of the dress.
"Now, now Kira since we couldn't decide on a gene we went with full proof comedy!" laughed Dearka leaning on Mir's shoulder
"This is worst then kindergarten when Yzak put play doh down my pants!" shouted Kira from atop the table as he stared down at the Teddy Bear.
"Hey it's your own fault. You didn't pick a side!" shouted Yzak laughing at the memory, "Maybe we should do 'BROKE BACK mountain'"
"So not funny you guys…" moaned Kira
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Athrun had been chasing Cagalli through the park and he still hadn't caught up. Sighing he picked up the pace, she really was a fast runner even with a full stomach.
"Ahhhhhhhhhhhhh!" Athrun heard someone scream, rounding the corner he saw Cagalli being lifted off the ground by Yunna.
"Cagalli!" shouted Athrun
"So your tutor has come to rescue you!" laughed Yunna, "I'm sorry but she's mine now." He lowered his face and kissed Cagalli on the lips she struggled but when she tried to shout Yunna just stuck his tongue in her mouth. Cagalli began to cry she hit Yunna as hard as she could but she couldn't get out of his grip. Athrun stood there shocked he saw Cagalli struggling, he saw her fighting, and he saw her kissing Yunna.
"Get away from her now!" growled Athrun advancing forward
"Ha you the pencil pusher taking on champion of the wrestling team! Pathetic!"
"We defiantly need a better wrestling team you're the champion!" shouted Athrun at Yunna as he got closer, "Because I could beat you in a heart beat!"
"Ha ha that's funny. Did you hear that sweet face he said he could beat me!" Yunna looked over at Cagalli and he realised she had fainted due to his strong hold on her neck.
"You BASTARD!" shouted Athrun punching him in the face and sending him flying into a park bench. Grabbing Cagalli before she hit the ground he made sure she was breathing. Seeing the ugly bruise forming on her neck he seethed with anger.
"How dare you! HOW DARE YOU HURT CAGALLI!" shouted Athrun who began hitting Yunna repeatedly. What he didn't know was that the good people on the wrestling team were watching the whole thing. Not that they agreed with what Yunna was doing that were getting a paid a great deal of money to do this so their morals went out the window. Seeing Yunna gesturing the lumbered out and charged at Athrun. Ducking he kicked one in the face but got hit on the head. Trying his best to fend them off he realised he was losing conciseness fast. Looking toward where Yunna was he gather his rest of his energy and shouted at him,
"Touch her again and I'll hurt you so bad you'll wish you were dead!" then everything went black.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
"Seriously we should have done this a long time ago!" laughed Yzak. Kira was still on top of the table glaring at the Teddy Bear.
"You people are cruel how long do you think I'll stay up here!" asked Kira looking at his friends who were now playing scrabble.
"Until we finish twister." replied Shiho
"But we never play twister!"
"Exactly!"
"Lacus you can't let them do this!" pleaded Kira
"Not now Kira I'm winning!" exclaimed Lacus
"Only because no one got any good letters!" exclaimed Shiho as she looked at the game board, "Hey after this let's play LIFE!"
"Sure!" chorused everyone.
"Why not twister!" asked Kira
"Because you don't get a choice Kuilet!" stated Mir placing a letter down.
"Umph. You people are cruel! You do know that!"
"Hey I got an idea guys!" shouted Dearka, "Let's never play twister again!"
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
"Uggghhhh my head…. I feel like I got hit by a mailbox! Oooowwww!" murmured Cagalli waking up. "Hey what am I doing on the ground?" she thought, "What's going on where's Athrun. All I remember is…. YUNNA! Oh god must wake up, must wake up!" Opening her eyes she looked around spotting a person lying a few feet away she nearly cried when she realised it was Athrun. Crawling over to him she began shaking him.
"Come on Athrun wake up! Please wake up!" Seeing blood dripping from his swollen lips she reached up and brushed it away. He shivered smiling down at him glad to get an reaction, she heaved him by the shoulders and dragged him toward a tree so he could lean on it. She noticed how different he looked without glasses not so stern just clam and relaxed she kind of liked him this way.
"Come on Athrun you can do this!" she whispered leaning on his chest. She felt something on her back, looking behind her she spotted a hand. Looking back over at Athrun shocked she saw him opening his eyes.
"Hey." He said
"Athrun, don't you dare scare me like that again!" shouted Cagalli close to tears.
"Shhhhh don't cry." said Athrun brushing away her tears with his fingertips, "Did Yunna hurt you?"
"No." she murmured turning to the side. But he saw the bruise on her neck, and knew it must of hurt to nearly have the life choked out of you, "How are you feeling?" She asked looking in his eyes for any sign of pain.
"Actually pretty good. Considering I got into a fight with him and his goons."
"You what! You idiot! You didn't have to defend me I could have taken care of myself!"
"That's right you looked you were doing a great job in his chokehold!" he replied
"Hey at least I didn't try to take on his goons!" she shouted back as his locket swayed around her neck. Smiling he reached out and grasped the locket necklace and pulled Cagalli towards him.
"You kept my necklace." He said
"Of course I keep it! It's beautiful!"
"But I thought you would have destroyed it when you saw Mia in my apartment."
"I tell you I tried but it refused to break!" groaned Cagalli smiling at Athrun. Reaching up he unclasped it form her neck and opened it revealing their pictures.
"Do you know why this is so special to me?" he asked looking at Cagalli as she shook her head, "You see this is a heirloom passed down in my family for generations. You see my great, great, great, great, great grandfather fell in love with a beautiful maiden but he didn't know how to tell her. So he got this idea that if he craved the words somewhere where she would find them she would know how he felt. So he began working he tried using rocks, trees, dirt but every time the girl was to preoccupied to notice. He began to lose hope that he would be able to tell her how he felt so giving up he returned to his blacksmith shop. A few days after giving up the girl came into her shop and asked him to craft her a necklace. Handing him the silver he had an idea. For a whole week he dedicated himself to the necklace. Having sleepless nights as he worked on the necklace. When the girl returned one week later he handed her the necklace opening it she was shocked to see the words…" Moving slightly Athrun pulled out his picture to reveal the word 'MARRY' then he removed Cagalli's photo 'ME.' Cagalli began crying as she took the necklace from his hands to read the words, "She of course said yes because well the necklace was actually an excuse so she could see him. They were married and to every son the necklace was passed down so that they would always be able to tell the girl they loved that they loved them." Cagalli was really crying now as Athrun finished his story. Slowly standing up and going down on one knee in front of Cagalli,
"Cagalli Yula Attha will you marry me?" asked Athrun
"Of course you moron!" she cried lunging at him as they fell on the ground laughing.
"Oh and before I forget." He opened a secret compartment in the back of the necklace and pulled out a brilliant ruby ring and slipped it on her finger. Kissing her deeply he looked in her eyes, "I love you!"
"The feeling mutual! I love you to Athrun!" giggled Cagalli moving a little to get off of him.
"Oowwwww I think you broke something!"
"Hey!" she said pouting, kissing her pouting lips Athrun looked at Cagalli.
"Now how are we going to get me home?" he asked
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Knock. Knock.
"Kira get the door!" murmured Shiho from the couch they had been playing games for the last 6 hrs and were all crashed out on the couch.
"I bloody well can't remember!" Kira shouted gesturing to the Teddy Bear at the foot of the table.
"Fine we'll play twister." Groaned Mir pulling out the game pieces. Stretching out his cramped limbs Kira walked toward the door completely forgetting he was still wearing Lacus's dress.
"Hello." Said Kira opening the door to find a very shocked looking Athrun and Cagalli.
"Uhhhh we aren't interrupting something are we?" asked Cagalli unsure if she even wanted to know. Reality clicked in Kira's mind. "Oh My God!" Quickly covering himself as if he had opened the door stark naked he ran down the hall and into the boys apartment in hopes of washing off his shame.
"Okay what are you guys doing?" asked Cagalli walking into the apartment with Athrun leaning on her. As she placed him on the couch she laughed at her friends who were now asleep on the twister board.
"You know they're going to feel that in the morning." stated Athrun looking at their friends.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
"You guys are engaged!" shouted Kira now in over-protective brother mode
"Yes Kira and stop shouting so loud!" replied Cagalli applying some rubbing alcohol to Athrun's wounds, which luckly weren't to serious. As she moved her head to the side Kira caught sight of the bruise on her neck,
"What the hell happened to your neck?" he asked
"Uh… well..ya..see…" she tried to begin but it really only brought her closer to tears.
"Yunna attacked her," stated Athrun looking at Kira, "I tired to save but ended up getting hurt too. But at least I got her away from Yunna."
"How did you two get engaged?" asked Mir speaking up from the couch where she was rubbing her cramped legs.
"Well it was actually was not suppose to happen, but well I thought it was a really appropriate time and well yeah…" said Athrun sheepishly looking at Cagalli blush as read as a tomato.
"But when are you guys going to have the ceremony I mean you don't want to do anything rash. You still have to finish school." Stated Kira
"Hey we aren't stupid Kira." said Cagalli, "We will be like you and Lacus and have the ceremony after we finish school. Don't worry! Besides your one to talk when you and Lacus are the first to be engaged. So don't criticize us!"
"Umph." came Kira's reply.
"Ya know," said Athrun pulling Cagalli into his lap, "You're a whole lot of trouble."
"Yes I am but I'm your trouble!" laughed Cagalli kissing Athrun's lips then looking at her ring finger watching the ruby shimmered in the sunlight.
