Well Cagalli and Lacus aren't supposed to be from this time. That's why "I like this pant" from Cagalli lol she hasn't wore one before, in my fic of course XD and no they don't have family here nor place to live… sorry if I confused you…

"Cursed Maidens"

Chapter 5: Un momento perfecto arruinado…

The gentle wind went freely and happy through the vegetation of the Zala mansion, the matching color of the grass outstanding clearly with Athrun's eyes in the middle of the day.

Athrun had suggested taking a walk in the garden after having breakfast and she agreed happily. And now they were there, strolling on the grass, walking side by side, but then Cagalli showed her energy. She went running and then turned to face Athrun grinning.

"Do you mind if I walk with out the shoes?"

"Wi-th-out your shoes?"

"Yes, so I can feel the grass," she answered smiling, "you should try it too, you seem like you need some relax."

Startled with her comment, he agreed, he would not lose anything by doing it.

As she had her response she took her shoes off and went to Athrun to grab his hand and pull him to run with her. They run in circles after chasing the other for a good while, laughing all the way. Cagalli was guiding Athrun to where she wanted and a hopeless but smiling blue-haired boy just followed. Finally reaching to a near fountain they decided to take a breath. They sat on the edge of the marble spring panting after all the spontaneous work out.

They stayed in silence as they catch their own breaths. Then he saw her getting up.

'She has a lot of energy' he thought before she spoke. "Did you enjoy it?" she asked bowing to meet his face.

He smiled again, "Yes it was fun."

"See! It's so pleasurable to run freely. Thank you for inviting me here."

His mind began to work as he started to think about the girl standing right in front of him with a big smile on her face. She looked so innocent and she was so formal but not in a cold way as he is used to face thanks to his father. Her charisma was contagious and now he felt like he knew her since always. His mind stopped as he saw her spinning, she looked so cute and even cuter if she had her dress with her. He compared mentally. He got up but Cagalli seemed not to notice him move and kept her new game that soon will make her daze.

He thought of asking her to dance, he knew this was a little awkward but he just felt like asking her, so he stood next to her. He opened his mouth to speak but no word came from it as he saw her somehow losing her balance. He instinctly reaches his hand to hold her but the strength of her spinning made him fall too.

In that moment his mind and body seemed to think the same as he positioned himself to meet the ground first, leaving Cagalli on top. He looked at her at the process to see her eyes shut.

A dried sound was heard, it was not loud comparing to the now arrived-engine noise.

Cagalli opened her eyes still a little dizzy from all the spinning, when she finally could register something, she met Athrun's emerald orbs, concern was in his eyes that looked not to have an end.

He smiled looking at her, "are you unhurt?"

"No" she said flushing slightly for being so close to him, she could practically feel his breath. Their eyes met, the green color of the leaf with her honey brown matching the trunk of tree, making a perfect match.

If a couple was watching this moment in a movie, this would be the kind of moment were the couple would kiss, the feeling in the environment was so nice and so Athrun with out knowing was tilting toward Cagalli making the distance between them even closer. Cagalli's flush still visible for the boy trying to kiss her, her heart started to race when she saw him leaning closer and closer. Her mind suddenly went blank. And she saw him slowly closing his eyes, although her mind didn't work her body was reacting to the moment and started to close her eyes little by little too. In the last second she was able to see the pink color of his cheeks and the moment until their lips find each others' in a kiss seemed so long that she heard a shriek.

'Not a good moment to interrupt' she said to her mind but another loud sound, more like someone screaming Athrun's name made her realize that it was not her mind who was ruining the moment, both of them open they eyes in a bolt.

There was a girl with long grey hair standing, staring at them with a sentiment that Cagalli could not figure. Athrun looked shocked with the new presence. Cagalli first reaction was that maybe this girl was his girlfriend from the way she looked at them; her eyes fixed to Athrun and looking very mad and someway betray, just like any girl would be when finding their boyfriend with another woman.

"Meer" he said positioning Cagalli gently on the grass. 'He knows her' she thought sadly.

The voice of the girl was heard again, "What are you doing?" it was more an accusation than a question itself. "Who is she!"

The right hand of the girl rose from her hip accusing Cagalli with her index finger. Athrun already standing offered his hand to help Cagalli. She took it after doubting a little.

Cagalli was now sure she was his girlfriend, who else would react like that, specially how she found them. The all moment was very romantic but now it and all was ruined. She felt disappointed.

"She is my friend, Cagalli." His stated was sound and clear, no hesitation like he was not afraid to tell her who she was. 'A friend, just a friend…'

"A friend you say! Do you really expect me to believe that?" Her voice growing louder.

Finally Cagalli spoke. "I think I'm going to excuse myself, excus-"

Athrun had held her wrist to not let her go. "No, don't leave" he told her with a sweet voice.

"Who is she Athrun?" the girl with the grey hair asked again.

"I told you, her name is Cagalli." He repeated facing her. "What about me! She is the reason why you dumped me yesterday!"

'Yestarday?' he thought. 'He had a date with her yesterday! He had completely forgotten about her with the arrival of Cagalli.'

"I'm sorry Meer, I completely forgot about it" he apologized with a hand in the back of his head. His other hand was still embracing the blonde's wrist.

"Is that all you can say!"

"Well, yeah that's the truth."

"So you are now over me! Just because of that blonde! What is she wearing? She looks like a boy!"

"Excuse me?" Cagalli complained.

"Over you? But we never had anything! Last night was suppose to be our first date and that just because my father told me to"

After hearing that Cagalli felt so much better, so she was no one to him. Now tranquil she had the time to see the girl, focus on her but watching her figure she looked a little familiar. 'I have seen her before.'

"But I thought we liked each other!"

'Their voices are lowering why? …. Why is the ground moving?' she asked herself as her vision started to blur, things that were not suppose to move were moving. Her chest felt tight.

"Ok Meer I like you, you are nice but not like you think so…" Athrun could not finish his statement because he felt like Cagalli was going down, she was falling.

"Cagalli!"

Her eyes were closing slowly. 'Huh?' that was all she could think until everything went black to her, but before that she felt someone grab her before she could hit the ground fully.

"Cagalli! What's wrong? Cagalli!" Athrun called several times for her but nothing while Meer stood there speechless and with no mood to help, but this all Athrun so concern about this girl that she never saw around was giving her a an annoying time, mixed with jealously. Next thing she knew he was carrying her in bride-style.

"Meer I think you should go, good bye." He suggested carrying her to his house.

"But Athrun" she cried with no tears, when she saw him leave.

"Sorry Meer but I have to take care of her." He turned to answer and as soon as he finished he walked quickly and got inside, leaving her behind and alone. After a few second she stormed out.

§

After fifteen minutes Kira arrived with Lacus, they were greeted by the maid and let them pass as it was Kira, everybody knew he was Athrun's best friend. They waited for him in the living room until Athrun met them.

"Hey Athrun ready go to the picnic" asked Kira cheerfully as soon as he saw him.

"Hello Athrun" greeted Lacus with a sing song voice from the couch.

"Hi, picnic?" questioned, "Ah yeah! I remember it, it was today right?"

"Yes, you forgot it!" Kira mocked trying to look mad.

"I'm sorry to interrupt but could you please tell me where is Cagalli?" she asked with her sweet voice.

"She is resting now, and Kira I can go today, she sort of fainted when Meer came" he uttered taking a seat in front of them.

"Cagalli fainted!" they asked worried at the same time. Kira didn't know why but he was certainly affected by this.

Lacus took it better than him. "Is she alright?"

"Yeah, she is now resting, I think she just was tired" he replied but it sounded more like he was trying to convince himself than Lacus. "But she was just fine until Meer came, we were even running and then we almost k-" Athrun stopped himself but he was not sure why, the words just didn't come out but his blush surely did. Kira frowned at this, he was about to ask but Lacus spoke.

"Meer? You said Meer?"

"You know Meer!" Kira asked amazed.

"If she is the same Meer I know then yes, I think." Kira and Athrun looked at each other with a weird face and Lacus continued, "But it can't be…"

"So what are you going to do?"

"I think I'm going to let her rest, but if she gets worse then I'll call a doctor" he paused, "Hey Kira you don't mind if I said she was your sister, do you?"

"You said what?" asked startled the boy with brown hair, he wasn't annoyed but just a little taken a back, even though thinking Cagalli as his sister didn't bother him in fact it sound good. "Wait, what did you exactly said."

Athrun was smiling nervously. "Mm I told my father that she was you lost sister hehehe." Kira raised an eye brow. "I'm sorry so please follow the idea if not we are going to have problems…"

Lacus saw him meditate, she smiled at his serious manner, they seem to really get along, no wonder why they are best friends.

"So it's ok if I said that Lacus is an old friend we met before, that's what I said to my parents anyway." They both laughed.

"I guess we have to go before my mom calls me" Kira announced getting up.

"Yeah, tell your parents that I'm sorry ok?" Kira nodded.

"Shall we go Lacus?" he asked smiling at her. She was so beautiful.

"Sure." She answered getting up gracefully. "Athrun please tell me if anything happens to her."

"Of course, don't worry about that Lacus, anyway I have to tell Kira right away, after all she is his sister" he joked but for Kira this sound strangely familiar.

"If she gets better, you two should join us, you know where is the picnic, right?" suggested Kira before walking out side of the door.

"I'll tell her" he informed seeing them off.

"Ok see ya" Kira waved and Lacus joined him. "Good bye Athrun."

"Bye." As they leave he closed the door and headed to see Cagalli.

Everything was still dark to Cagalli's eyes; she didn't know where she was, she had no idea why she felt dizzy or felt that way when she saw that girl. All of a sudden she heard a murmur. She closed her eyes tighter trying to hear it, focus in the sound she figured it was a voice, it sounded familiar.

.Do not…… trust her

She…..is……dangerous….

"Who?" Cagalli asked, her voice echoed in the dark. It passed some minutes, or at least Cagalli felt like it were minutes until the voice replied.

.Meer….

"Meer! The girl that came today?" The fine voice uttered again.

……and…..Flay….
