Cagalli was angry and confused at the same time. Athrun Zala had just slapped her. Was it just an accident or he wanted to do so? She never knew how much she had hurt him due to the slapping and leg kicking but he deserved it. He tripped on her, touched her on unlikely places, said bad things behind her back and just slapped her.

She silently walked towards the bathroom and washed her face. Since from the morning, she have been sleepy and almost fall asleep in class and luckily Athrun Zala wasn't paying attention.

Athrun Zala

She thought maybe he wouldn't be so bad after all since everyone likes him but somehow he always make her angry and being a bad tempered person wasn't helping at all. She lifted up her hand and touches her cheek and saw the red imprint on it. The impact wasn't strong but still leaves a print and now she couldn't help but wonder if the green eye alien was having two sore cheek due to her strength and countless time of slapping.

The little unintentionally slap somehow bring Cagalli to consideration of her action towards the blue hair guy. She was guilty yes but she still thinks it was his fault. If it wasn't him that make her angry, he wouldn't get so many slapping from her. Why him and never the others?

I wanted to slap Yuuna too but I don't think daddy will be glad

It seems like Zala and Yuuna are in the bad list of Cagalli. Yuuna was irritating, annoying, ego while Zala was...Zala was...

Zala was what?

She tried to recall what kind of person he is but somehow she haven't got a clue except that he did something wrong in front of her. She ruffled her hair in frustration and continue to think of his badness but she couldn't find any.

ARGH! ZALA YOU JERK!

A knock on the bathroom door interrupt her, she turned and saw Lacus and Miriallia looking at her in front the toilet door with a worried expression.

"Are you guys coming in or what?" Cagalli asked and both of them entered.

"Are you alright Cagalli?"

"Yea. Why?"

"I mean Athrun just..."

Mentioning of his name makes her blood boil and she once again feel like slapping him. She control her anger and composure and her urge to slap him across the cheek, no, punch him on the nose and both of his eyes. Thinking how he will look like with broken nose and two black eye make her laugh. Lacus and Miriallia shared a look of worry and confusion.

The evil laughing and the imagining of the beaten up Athrun still haven't end and Lacus thinks that it was the best to leave her to laugh by herself at least for a moment. The two of them inside the toilet waiting patiently for the blonde to finish her evil fantasy and also try to avoid everyone from coming in. What will people think if they saw the laughing evilly Cagalli inside the toilet? They couldn't imagine.

"Mr. Zala! You have a very bad broken nose. What happened to you?" the kind nurse was still tending the broken nose Athrun who was still haven't recover from his shock. Yzak was losing his patient and Kira was pacing up and down. Dearka looked at the three of them and shrugged.

What kind of people who doesn't recover from shock for about...15 minutes?

Looking at Athrun and he knew the answer to his own question.

Athrun Zala!

"There Mr. Zala! Your nose will be in fine condition after a few days." and the nurse walked away leaving the sobber Athrun seating there thinking of Cagalli.

He reached for his broken nose and touched it and winced at the pain of it. Feeling the pain on his nose,he wonder if Cagalli was feeling the pain when he slapped her. Does it hurts? Thinking about his last experiences of being slapped, he knew just how it feels. He looked at his palm that had slapped Cagalli and suddenly as if something had hit his heart causing pain.

Of course it hurts!

He sighed at his stupidity and his foolish plan of intending to give Mia something and that is a slap but unexpectedly he slapped Cagalli.

"You alright Athrun?"Kira asked while Athrun looked up at Kira with a sad expression and Kira wasn't used of seeing his friend like this. Where is his optimistic buddy Athrun?

"Come on Athrun! What's with the face? It's not like you haven't suffer a broken nose before. You even suffered more than just a broken nose." Dearka piped in.

Indeed he have suffered more than just a broken nose, he had suffered a broken rib, broken leg and broken arm and that's because he did something bad to Yzak, that is accidentally tripped on him causing him to lie flat on the floor. That wasn't really the main problem, the main problem is Yzak fell right in front of Shiho! Yzak wasn't really fond of him since.

The pain he was feeling now it's not from his broken nose, it's from his heart. He doesn't know why he was feeling this and it was just not him to feel like this. He still remember the magenta hair Lunamaria has insulted something about Lacus whom she thought is Mia, Athrun had make sure she can't come out from her dorm for about a week and he never feel sorry about it. What makes the difference now? Cagalli slapped him more than enough and an accidental slap for Cagalli hurts him.

What is happening to me? This is NOT me!

"Athrun?"

"D-Do you think it hurts?"

"Well that you have to ask yourself right? You are the one having the broken nose." Dearka answered him a little sarcastically while Kira nodded.

"Right. N-NO! I-I mean.."

"You MEAN what?" Yzak asked him through gritted teeth.

He was not in the mood playing or giving sympathy for Athrun infact he was in the mood to punch him but decided against it when he saw his face. Athrun Zala had just ruined his moment in asking Shiho out to a friendly date by causing a scene and eventuallly getting punch by the tanned skin Afhmed.

He have been waiting for this moment alone with Shiho far too long after Zala have interrupted him and Shiho inside his dorm when he was about to ask her out yesterday. He had practised so hard infront of the mirror everytime Dearka is out, imagining the stunning Shiho infront of him. He was waiting for this perfect moment to happen when he first set his eyes on her. He even prepared a red rose for Shiho, his angel. Yes! His angel!

But Zala just have to interrupt it yet again! My second chance has disappeared just like that

I-I mean does it hurt when I-I slapped Cagalli?" and that is when Yzak loses his cool.

"OF COURSE IT HURTS! WHAT DO YOU THINK HUH?" Athrun looked down solemnly.

"I've should have known."

Yzak was suspecting something is wrong quickly dragged Athurn out of the clinic and waited nearby for Kira and Dearka. Athrun didn't say a word and lost in thought. He was trying to conjure up a plan to make sure Cagalli forgive him but he knew it wasn't easy.

How can it be easy when their first meeting and the following meetings was hardly encouraging to build a new friendship. He was now hundred percent sure that the blonde hatred towards him have reaches the undoubtedly maximum level and stated a big black mark on her hatred list.

Athrun's thought was soon be broken by the quarelling voice of Kira, Dearka and Yzak. Athrun raised an eyebrow at Kira and Dearka worn out look, sweats fills their fore head and was gasping for air.

"What happened to you two?" Yzak looking at them with a disgusted look while Dearka and Kira giving him their death glare which Yzak took much interest in responding them with a even deathlier death glare. Kira and Dearka gulp slightly.

"All because of you!" Dearka pointing a finger at him.

"Why me?" brushing off Dearka's finger.

"The nurse was chasing us because of your stupid outburst!" Kira took part.

"WITH A BROOM!" Dearka shouted out.

"Such fool!" and he begin to walk away mumbling under his breath.

"WE heard that you know!" Kira and Dearka chorused together.

"I was intended to let you two hear it. Stupid!"

"WHAT was that suppose to mean huh?"

" I meant what I said Dearka! Never knew you are so brainless till now! Haiz!" leaving the red-faced Dearka and the equally pissed Kira.

"Come back here Joule!" and they set off chasing the silver hair boy while Athrun trudging behind shaking his head at their childishness.

"Let's go back to class now Cagalli. I think Miss Murrue won't be please if we are late."

"Yes Cagalli! We should now."

Cagalli stepped out from her giving-Zala-what-he-deserve fantasy zone and pouted slightly. She was having so many fun imagining herself beating the crap out of Zala and the look of Zala like a swollen crab makes her so happy but Lacus and Miriallia just have to be the fantasy spoiler.. She sighed slightly but agree to go as well. On their way, she met with the boys, with them bickering with each other. Cagalli saw the green eye alien and her eyebrow twitched.

"Hey Lacus! Cagalli! Milly!" greeted Kira. Dearka rushed towards Milly and earned a shove from her.

Athrun hearing the name of Cagalli being mentioned perked up from his thought. He saw a certain blonde with her eyebrow twitching glaring at him and he paled. His hand was sweating now and his mind was searching for the perfect idea of apologizing to her. From romance novel he read from Lacus, love drama from the television to Dearka's way of apologizing. It seems like none of them is perfect.

Athrun walk towards her and the others backed away and he look inside the flaming amber eyes. He opened his mouth to say sorry but another ATHRUUN HONEY could be heard. Athrun groaned ever so loud and Cagalli huffed and went back to the classroom leaving a annoyed and clueless Athrun there. Kira pushed Athrun away from Mia and make sure she will not come near to him more than a feet.

Inside the class, Athrun saw Cagalli sitting there being pampered by the purple freak Yuuna and Afhmed. Cagalli looked like she can burst any second but she didn't and that make Athrun think that if he was in their situation, will Cagalli hold her temper as well?

I think not

The rest of the History period, Miss Murrue did not enter and the students gladly head to the cafeteria for their breakfast. Yuuna and Afhmed was following Cagalli while Mia was following Athrun trying to touch his broken nose. Kira on the other hand was the first one to reach the cafeteria grabbing all the delicious food he needed and the auntie in charge just shrugged knowing his big appetite.

"Ouch! That hurts Murrue!" the headmaster of the school yelped in pain rubbing his arm.

"Served you right! You made me missed my class!" the brown colour hair teacher huffed.

"But I missed you!" Mwu slid his arm around her waist and planted a kiss on her cheek causing her to blushed.

"Don't do that again." releasing herself from Mwu's arm and walked off from her office but to be stopped by none other than Mwu.

Mwu took her arm and carry her in bridal style and landed her on the chair. Murrue was trying to free herself but it was useless. Mwu was immune from all attacks she gave him not even punching make him back away. Mwu begin to kiss her and Murrue trying her best not to reply him back.

"Now that you missed your class, I suppose you are free now." saying it between his kisses.

The cafeteria was fulled with students buzzing up and down carrying trays of food. Cagalli was not left out either, she ordered herself some delicious food that is one of every kind of food she can find and begin to feed her stomach. Due to the lack of place, Yuuna and Afhmed have to shared a different table keeping an eye on Cagalli but the food was so tempting, they forget about her and begin stuffing themselves with them.

Athrun who was on his way to be seated at the table with the rest of them was having difficulties. All Athrun's fan girls have rushed to him at the first sight they saw him. All of them carrying gifts and food and medical box as well.

"Athrun! Poor You!"

"What happened to you Athrun poo-poo bear?"

Athrun was trying to get way from his fan girls and Mia at his side clinging on to him is not helping at all. He even tripped causing his breakfast to be eaten by shoes- shoes of his fan girls. He sighed and from the crowd what is seen only Athrun's hand waving for help.Kira who was suppose to help him out which he promised to do so losses him self in Lacus and food.

Cagalli and the others was busy talking and eating their breakfast paying no attention the the suffocating Athrun behind the walls of girls. One of the girl who was holding a cup of orange juice shouting for Athrun rushing towards the crowd. Being Athrun's fan girls mean one thing, super obsessive. The rest of them was pushing each other to make sure they get near to Athrun accidentally pushed the girl who was holding the cup of juice causing it to fly away.

To where? It landed perfectly on Cagalli's head causing her hair to be dripping wet with juice. Everyone on the table stopped doing what they were doing except Kira and looked at Cagalli. Cagalli grip on the spoon was hard causing the spoon to bend slightly, her eyes filled with flame. Without another word, she stormed out of the cafeteria following with the yelling from the fan girls.

"OH NO!MY JUICE FOR ATHRUN!"

Kira who had finished his breakfast saw that Cagalli and Athrun who was nowhere to be seen.

"Hey! Where's Cagalli?"

Miriallia who was sitting beside him steeped on his feet hard causing him to yelp. Lacus jumped at his outburst.

"What was that for Milly?"

"Oh that! I thought you were Dearka. I was intending to do it to him." saying it through gritted teeth. Dearka who was drinking water facing Yzak spit out his remaining water.

Yzak face was filled with water and Dearka's saliva. Dearka was too busy talking or more like apologizing to Miriallia failed to notice. For once Yzak wasn't angry at all in fact he never felt happier. Shiho was sitting beside him wiping his face with her handkerchief that smells like jasmine. He was blushing at such near contact.

I'm in heaven

Everyone was busy with themselves except Athrun who was still in the grasp of the wild girls. Their voices filled up the cafeteria and Athrun muffled screaming of HELP cannot be heard not even Mia beside him. It seems like Athrun was stuck with the craze of his fan girls again.

Why me! WHY!

Author's Note:

This is Chapter 8 and it was quite short and AC scenes are very very dissapointing or you can consider as none. Sorry about that! About Mwu and Murrue fluffy scene, it really can't be help.
