From the past chapter:
Hotel: Wedding Reception
"Good Evening everyone! Were your hosts Meer.." Meer said, she was a good host
"and Im her boyfriend Yuna! Ill be assisting her!" Yuna said, he had a good peoples-relation thats why they also made him host
"Today we will be celebrating the wedding of our friends Kira and Lacus!" Meer said "So lets start to eat first then the games!" Yuna said looking at people as they headed to the buffet table..
30 minutes after
"So everyones done eating? Lets start with the games!" Meer announced cheerfully, then people made their glasses sound, gesturing Kira and Lacus to kiss, which they did.
The first game was catch the bouquet, LunaMaria caught it, but the person who caught the garter was Shinn, which made Rey boiling mad,though Shinn just gave the garter to Rey which made Rey kiss LunaMaria, he felt much better but Shinn was still shiverring cause of Reys expression.
More games came and the night was fun and exciting.. Though they didnt notice that the maid-of-honor and bestman left the room and headed out to the gazebo..
I
will be true to the promise
I have made
To you and to
the
One who gave you to me
Cagalli was weeping as she lent over the balcony and she felt a hand touch her..
"Athrun.." Cagalli guessed and she was right
"Cagalli.. please dont cry.. it hurts me more.." Athrun replied and made Cagalli face her, his eyes was also teary
"I cant help it.. youre leaving tomorrow.. we might never meet again.. and we will already be going to college.. you might not be able to contact me since there are no phones allowed in the dorm.. we might not see each other again.." as Cagalli kept on making these complaints, Athrun placed his thumb on her lips and kissed her..
"My princess... Though we are apart.. our love for each other will remain the same.. Ill never forget you and I will return.. Do you understand?" Athrun said and his eyes met Cagallis..
Cagalli blushed but still cried. But she managed to say..
"Yes.. Ill never forget you.. and I will trust you.. I understand and I love you.." more tears ran down her eyes...
Athrun felt like crying but only one tear managed to go down his eyes "Lets leave this party and spend our last night together.." he said Cagalli nodded and kissed him on his lips as they headed to the car and leaving the fun and happy reception behind...
Tomorrow
morning, if you wake up
And the sun does not appearI
will
be here
Oh, I will be here
I will be right here waiting for you
Cagalli moved and pulled the blanket over to her as she noticed that she had no clothes on..
"Hey.." a males voice was heard which made her almost fall off her bed, but then she felt hands pulling her back..
"Thanks!" Cagalli said and sighed as she remembered that Athrun and her had did something the past night, she giggled and then hugged him..
"Hmm.. I forgot about last night.." Cagalli whispered as she leaned closer to him
"You forgot that quick.. am I that forgettable...?" Athrun said with a stern look on his face
"Hey! I didnt say that.. maybe I was so tired and you were too good!" Cagalli said as she made a guilty face
"Well thats good to hear.." Athrun giggled and patted Cagalli like a dog which made Cagalli playfully punch him..
Athrun then felt a tear slide down his chest and made a sad face, he heard Cagalli whimper some more, so he placed his palms on Cagallis cheeks and kissed her on her forehead..
"Please dont cry my princess.." Athrun said
But more tears rolled down her face and her golden eyes met his emerald ones...
"How can I not cry Athrun.. Youre leaving today.. who knows when well ever meet.. long distance relationships hardly works! And you know.. you are GOOD LOOKING! so a lot of prettier women would go for you! Then youll forget me.. marry that model looking skank and then have kids.. leaving me alone!" Cagalli said so fast that it made Athrun blink...
Athrun hugged her and laughed "Princess.. dont judge me.. and I already told you my heart belongs to you.. even if the goddess of beauty would go to me and asked me for a date I would reject her the moment she asks.. youre that precious to me.." he said and looked at her, but her eyes were looking at a different direction, so that she wont show fear and saddness "I love you Cagalli.." he said, Cagalli cried and hugged him back and her nailz were practically grazing his bare back "I love you too Athrun.." they both cried since there were only a few hours left they would be together..
So time passed and it was already seven in the morning. Athrun already left since he had to re-check his room, since he had to depart with his dad today.
Cagalli was lying on her bed thinking..
Flashback
"Cagalli remember.. before I leave... well have a small party.. Itll just be our closefriends and family.. please dont be late.. and wear something formal.. I love you.." Athrun said kissing Cagallis forehead before he left her house.
End of Flashback
Cagalli was still lying in her bed, to tired to wake up and thinking of life without her beloved Athrun "Dammit.. I shouldnt get too emotional.. he promised hell come back and he never breaks a promise"
She closed her eyes and remembered what happened when they were younger...
Flashback (6 years ago)
Cagalli was in her garage trying to read a book on building things..
"This is so hard!" Cagalli thought as she tried to build a kite
"So this plastic should be cut into a triangle and put two holes.." but eventually the plastic ripped, Cagalli was so nostalgic and kept thinking "Where the hell is Daddy and Kira.. leaving me to build this kite wasnt a very good thing to do!" she felt lachrymose and was already doing everything to build the kite, but being pressured didnt help her since it would just make her annoyed and worsen the situation.
"Why cant I build this thing!" Cagalli felt like screaming and before she could knock over the things on the table she felt a hand grab her shoulders..
"Athrun?" she said looking up at his emerald eyes
"Hi Cagalli.. whatcha doing?" he said as he patted her head, Cagalli was quite pissed cause she couldnt build her kite, and eventually released her rage on Athrun..
"WHAT THE HELL ARE YOU TRYING TO DO?" Cagalli yelled looking at Athrun.
He was shocked and annoyed on what Cagalli did, but since he was a gentleman, he looked up at Cagalli and calmly said "What did I do wrong?"
Cagalli went back to her own reality and remembered what she did, she looked at Athrun and was confused on what to say and turned red and she was about to cry due to embarassment. But then she heard a laugh..
"Whats so funny?" Cagalli said with a quivering voice
"Its just that youre so cute with that expression..." he said pinching her cheeks, Cagalli didnt get mad and just laughed along with him and punched him slightly, this made both of them laugh..
"Anyway.. whats up Cagalli.. you were pissed.. am I right?i" Athrun asked
"Yeah.. youre right.. its just that, Daddy and Kira left me.. and they dared me to build a kite.. and if I dont.. I have to do the chores! And I really dont know how to build a kite! And I had such a big ego!" Cagalli said looking at the floor, she felt so bad that her pride was about to be ruin, the moment her brother and father comes in
"Hmm.. so you need to build a kite eh?" Athrun said, the tone of his voice was happy
"Yeah.. why?" Cagalli responded looking at Athruns shoes
"Well.. lets say a blue haired hunk knows how to make one.." Athrun said laughing
"Really?" Cagalli said and her grin became bigger and bigger
"Yup! And Il help you dont worry.." Athrun said chuckling
"Oh Athrun! You rock!" Cagalli said jumping on top of her bestfriend and making him trip and falling to the ground, but Cagalli remembered what he said and her eyebrows raised "Hunk..?" and they both laughed..
Soon the kite was done, and it was one of the most beautiful kites she had ever seen "Now I can gain my pride and my dad and brother will definitely be shocked!" Cagalli said laughing and Athrun was looking at her smiling..
'Ill do anything for my princess.. just to see her smile' Athrun thought
Soon Kira and Uzumi Attha arrived and they were still laughing on the thought of Cagalli, but then they were shocked when they saw Cagalli holding up a dragon kite and grinning at them..
"Look at what I made.." Cagalli said
and Athrun pretended to go to Kira and Uzumi and said sarcastically "Whoa! Cagalli thats one amazing kite!"
Kira and Uzumi still wondered how Cagalli did it, and Cagalli smiled and she thought 'Thanks Athrun... my prince charming..' and this made her smile..
End of Flashback
This made Cagalli tear and look at her watch 'Crap! Its already quarter to eleven! Ill be late.. and Athruns gonna kill me!' she thought and finally headed to the bathroom to prepare for her beloveds goodbye party...
At the restaurant
"Hey Yzak.. wheres Cagalli?" Flay said nudging her boyfriend, Yzak looked around the restaurant and gestured his shoulder upward, meaning he didnt have an idea, Flay sighed and was getting hungry..
Meanwhile Dearka was talking with Kuzzey, LunaMaria, Rey, Shinn, Stellar and Miriallia was getting worried since Athrun was going to leave in 3 hours, and Cagalli wasnt there yet "Guys.." she whispered talking to the group..
"What?" Kuzzey asked
"Hey Rey listen.." LunaMaria said
"Huh? What?" Rey asked
"Oh Stellar.." Shinn said as Stellar massaged him, but then Stellar pinched him since he was imagining things with Stellar "Ow! What was that for!" he asked rubbing his back
"Mir has to say something.." Stellar said smiling at her boyfriend
Just then, Yuna and Mia walked in and Yuna said "Athrun! Why so blue!" and then Mia pinched him and brought him to their table..
"Athrun is getting worried.. his flight is 5 hours from now! And Cagalli isnt here yet!" Miriallia said, her tone was filled with concern
"Lets just call her? Maybe theres traffic?" Lacus said walking towards them with Kiras arms around her
"Ill call my unpunctual sister.." Kira said taking his phone out of his pocket..
Everyone was looking at the pissed Kira, as he called his sister.
Ring Ring
Cagalli was rushing to put on her clothes and grooming herself with the help of Mana, "Please get my phone.. Mana.. I hope thats not them! Im so late!" Cagalli said she quickly placed her stuff on her bag and running out of her room..
"Hello?" Cagalli said panting
"Where the hell are you?" Kira asked
"Umm.. Im near already! okay?" Cagalli said lying to her brother
Cagalli opened the door to the limo and quickly got in, Kisaka was there in front..
"Let me talk to Kisaka.." Kira said; Cagalli handed the phone to Kisaka, and kept glancing at the cars clock.. 'I hope my stupidity wont make me miss Athrun..' Cagalli thought biting her nails...
Oceans
apart day after day
and I slowly go insane
I hear your voice on
the line
But it doesn't stop the pain
If I see you next to
never,
then how can we say forever?
"Yes Kira.. Yes.. well be there.. well lets just say the "spoiled" princess was too lazy to get up" Kisaka said putting down the phone.
"What did my oh-so-bossy brother Kira say now?" Cagalli sarcastically said, though she looked worried since she knew that Athrun would leave soon..
"Kira said that if we wont be there soon.. youll miss Athrun and he also wondered what delayed you..." Kisaka said calmly
"OH MY GOSH! Hurry up! Hurry up! Hurry up!" Cagalli yelled, though Kisaka tried to calm her down..
"Dont worry well be there in 10 minutes.." Kisaka said
Restaurant
'Wheres Cagalli! Whats taking her so long! Of all the days to be late! She chose today!' Athrun thought as he was getting nervous and pissed, he was also checking his pocket to see if his suprise is still ther, and he smiled..
Everyone was eating and preparing their goodbye presents to Athrun, they were also wondering where Cagalli is.. But suddenly a car engine was heard..
"Miss Cagalli were here.." Kisaka said holding up the door and taking Cagallis hand..
'Dont cry Cagalli.. just smile..' Cagalli said as she was nearing the restaurant which holds one of her last memories with Athrun...
Wherever
you go,
Whatever you do,
I'll be right here waiting for
you,
Whatever it takes,
or how my heart breaks,
I will be
right here waiting for you
Cagalli walked in with a lilac-off-shoulder dress which wasnt too formal, she also held a small box with her present...
She opened the door and took a deep breath and came in..
Everyone kept quiet and looked at the newly-arrived guest.. she was shocked at all the eyes looking at her so she replied chuckling "Sorry Im late?" she said and everyone went back to what they were doing..
"My gosh Cagalli! What took you so long!" Lacus said grabbing her arm, Uzumi was looking dissapointed at her daughter who was 2 hours late, "I hope Athrun isnt mad..." Cagalli said sighing, Lacus looked at her and was smiling at her "You know Athrun more than that.. he can always understand.. especially things you do.." Lacus said softly..
Cagalli was trying to hold back her tears as flashbacks of her and Athrun went to her mind.. 'Dont cry..' she thought..
I
took for granted all the times
That I thought would last some
how
I hear the laughter and I taste the tears
But I can't get
near you now
Oh can you see it baby
You've got me goin crazy
Just then Cagalli felt a hug coming from behind her back.
"Oh Athrun.. Im sorry Im late.." Cagalli said hugging her beloved back..
Tears filled her eyes, as she remember that an hour from now Athrun had to depart..
"Please dont leave me.. I cant live without you.." Cagalli said, her request was prehensile..
Athruns eyes soon filled with water and hugged her and pulled her closer to him as he thought of not being to do what she requested..
"You know I cant do that.. my fathers will has to be followed.. if you were in my part.. you would do the same.." Athrun said as tears rolled down his eyes.
Everyone stayed quiet as they watched the drama of the couple, they felt sad for them; Lacus placed her head on Kiras chest, LunaMaria hugged Rey, Flay buried her face on Yzaks lap, Kuzzey looked away, Yuna and Meer began to weep and Uzumi and Patrick actually felt sad because theyre keeping Athrun and Cagallis engagement a secret...
So to make everyones attention to the couple go away.. Uzumi spoke and said "Everyone.. since Patrick and Athrun will leave.. we will now bid them goodbye.. each one is given a chance to speak.."
Everyone kept quiet and prepared their gifts..
Wherever
you go,
Whatever you do,
I'll be right here waiting for
you,
Whatever it takes,
or how my heart breaks,
I will be
right here waiting for you
Athrun sat down and tried to cheer up his weeping princess as he listened to what his friends has to say..
"Hey Athrun.. so we havent really got to know each other.. but you were always a good friend.. Ill always remember the times you helped me out n my Math assignment.. and the time you together with Kira helped me to get Meyrin.. (maybe she rest in peace) and Im just so sad to see you go.. I hope you and Cagalli will always be together no matter how far you are apart" he said while giving Athrun a keychain with the class picture on it, and a letter from Tolle, since Tolle was still in the hospital..
Shinn and Stellar went up and said their farewells "Hey Athrun! Hey Mr. Zala.. this is so sad.. since we werent really close.. But thank you for all your help.. you were there when we had funny incidents and you were there always trying to help out.. we will miss you.." Shinn said, Stellar couldnt say anything since she was weeping. Shinn and Stellar went near Athrun and hugged him "We hope you and Athrun will always remain true to each other.." Stellar said offering a gold pen with an engraved saying No matter the distance, Love will always find a way From Shinn Asuka and Stellar Loussiere.. Athrun was happy and sad at the same time..
Then Yuna and Meer came to the stand and was depressed than usual, Meer was first to speak "Hey Athrun! I know I treated you badly for the past school years.. and Im sorry for that! I will miss your courage and the way youll never give up especially when me and Yuna teases you, and you always have the courage to argue back.." Yuna held Meers hand and spoke "Athrun.. yes Ill miss you too.. like what Meer said.. and Ill also miss the fact that you never give up! Like the time we made mocked Cagalli and you were there to do everything so that well stop.. Ill miss that..Take Care man.." Yuna said. They both walked towards Athrun and gave him a stufftoy thats carrying a heart, "We hope youll remember us with this" they said in unison after hugging Athrun...
I
wonder how, how we can survive this romance
But in the end if i'm
with you i'll take the chance
Athrun looked at everyone and began shaking, he felt like he didnt want to go.. but he had to, since it was for the sake of his and his fathers life, and also cause his dad would be the president of the company of ever he transfers. He looked down and Cagalli and tried to face her but she just kept weeping and gripping him tightly, gesturing him that she would never let her beloved go..
Rey and LunaMaria went up and spoke, LunaMaria spoke first "Hey Athrun! You know.. you were one of the nicest boys I met.. and even though.. you were always a good person and you were there, together with Cagalli, Kira, Lacus, Dearka, Miriallia and Yzak when I was new to the school.. and when I wanted to get introduced to Rey! You were there when my late sister passed away.. and you were there to cheer me up.. Ill really miss you.." Rey looked at her and spoke "Athrun.. thanks for everything.. we will definitely miss you and youre blue hair.. well also miss the lovey-dovey things you do with Cagalli.." This made people laugh, including Athrun. Rey and LunaMaria went near Athrun and hugged him, they offered him a photoalbum filled with pictures through the years..
Yzak and Flay went on top and they said in unison "We didnt want to say something long..so what we want to say is WE'LL MISS YOU.." they said looking depressed as they offered Athrun the soundtrack they made when they were singing in the karaoke bar.
Dearka and Miriallia came to the stage and said their farewells "Ill miss youre silly arguments with Cagalli.." Miriallia said, and Dearka looked at him and said "Ill miss you so much buddy.. hey you better call me, email me..." he kept continuing but Miriallia pulled him out of the stage and went near and hugged Athrun as they gave Athrun a picture they took when they were kids..
Wherever
you go,
Whatever you do,
I'll be right here waiting for
you,
Whatever it takes,
or how my heart breaks,
I will be
right here waiting for you
So finally the newlyweds were the next, they were so close and romantic to each other, as if they didnt want to let go. Lacus spoke first and said "We knew each other for a long time.. and our memories of you will never vanish.. we will miss you.. and I hope youre love with Cagalli will cherish forever.." Kira placed his hand on her waist and spoke "Athrun.. my dear friend.. and my sisters beloved.. Through the years you were there for us.. and you were always so optimistic.. you were kind and generous and really nice.. Despite leaving.. I hope you will remain true to my sister.. and I do hope youre love lasts forever.." They went near Athrun, giving a Goodbye Card everyone signed, Cagalli stopped crying and was touched on what her brother said..
Everyone now looked at Cagalli whose eyes were red from crying..
She went on stage but nothing came out, she burst into tears so Athrun ran to her catching her into his arms "I love you.. and i will definitely miss you.. wherever you go my heart will follow.. I love you.." Cagalli said and her hands were quivering, giving Athrun a necklace with their picture in it, she also had one, identical to his...
Athrun spoke and thanked everyone and bid his goodbyes..
Time passed and he had to leave, Not everyone went except Dearka, Miriallia, Kira, Lacus, Yzak,Flay, Uzumi and Cagalli.
The rest except Cagalli and Uzumi rode on their own vehicles..
Inside the Zalas limo, Cagalli was sitting beside Athrun while Patrick sat beside Uzumi. Cagalli was profusely weeping and hugging Athrun. Uzumi was texting with Patrick saying how sad it was, but Patrick said that this will definitely make their love for each other stronger, causing them to be a perfect couple..
Soon they arrived at the airport..
Oh
I love you,
Oh whatever it takes,
Whatever you do,
Wherever
you go i'm never leavin you
Athrun took out his luggages, and so did Patrick, Patick and Uzumi hugged and whispering to never tell anyone about the secret engagement of Athrun and Cagalli, they both snickered and bid their goodbyes. The rest of the friends were sad and said their goodbyes to Athrun..
Last was Cagalli, she was standing there looking at her beloved..
Athrun came near her and placed his palm on his pocket; he slowly took out the box and opened it as he neared her..
'This is the day I dreaded the most' she thought..
Athrun finally reached her and hugged her and swiftly slipped a ring engraved with diamond letterings..
She was shocked and hugged him back.. She looked at her finger and her eyes filled with tears, as her grip tightened..
"Ill miss you and I will come back for you.. I promise, this ring will remind you of me when Im far away... I love you my princess.." Athrun said as he hugged Cagalli tighter and tighter..
"I will wait for you.. and I love you too.. my prince.." Cagalli said..
They kissed each other passionately..
And the day turned to dark, Cagalli looked up at the sky, her hand on her lips..
'And so he left.. I will wait for you...' Cagalli thought looking at her index finger with the ring that has a diamond engravement saying Forever Bonded AxC ,her friends and family Uzumi, Kira, Lacus, Dearka, Miriallia, Yzak and Flay looking at her, hoping that Athrun wil keep his promise to return...
I'll be right here waiting for you
