The Bet with the Devil

Ravenwyrd : Thanx and glad you like the summary and title :P
The Angels' Princess : O.O I guess you are right about my formal language, I will try to use more informal one on the next chapters and thanx for mentioning it.

Chapter 3
After her detention, Cagalli went to the gate, she muttered when she saw Athrun standing by the gate, and he wasn't alone, he talked with the read haired girl. Cagalli recognized her as Meyrin Hawke. She ignored them and walked passing them.
Athrun chased her, "Hey, your really mean, I am here waiting for you and you ignored me." He pretended to be hurt.
Cagalli stopped and glared at him, she could feel that Meyrin stared deadly at her, "I didn't ask you to wait for me. And this detention is your damn fault!"
"Hey, half of it was your fault. If you didn't put those things in my coffee, it wouldn't have happened." He gave an amused glance at her, "But Cagalli, the whole three months will be interesting for me, your behaviors intrigue me."
Cagalli said lazily, "Yeah and it will be a living hell for me."
Athrun laughed, "Well I'll bring the car, let me give you a lift."
"Don't need that."
"Come on, don't be stubborn."
Cagalli sighed, she was too tired to argue, "Okay, okay."
Athrun took his car, he approached her and lowered the window, "Come inside Cagalli." Cagalli opened the door and sat beside him in the front.
As he drove the car Athrun asked her, "There will be a birthday party this weekend, you got the invitation from Stellar right? She is your classmate."
"Yeah, I got that," she replied lazily.
"So this Saturday I will pick you up at 8 PM. We will go to the party together."
"Whatev-" Cagalli got her senses back, "What? No way. I'm better going alone rather than with you."
"Ouch, I'm hurt," he mocked.
"And I will be happy if you are truly hurt," Cagalli retorted, "Thank you for your offer but I will go with my brother."
Athrun shrugged his shoulders, "Okay then, but I will be there also." He smirked.
When they reached her home, she got out from the car, "Thank you for the lift, even if I didn't want it." And she slammed the door hard.
Athrun opened the window and shouted, "Hey!" Cagalli turned her head, "You forgot to give me something."
Cagalli asked him, "What is it?"
"You forgot to give me the goodbye kiss." He grinned.
Cagalli's temper was rising, she yelled loudly, "In your dreams Zala, my boyfriend who can't do nothing except flirting with women." And she went inside.
Athrun was bursting with laughter, "Nice temper."
-----------------
"Is there a Cagalli here?" The red haired girl asked someone in her class. Cagalli stood up from the chair and went toward her.
Meyrin, another one of Athrun's fans. "I'm Cagalli," She gave her the fake smile.
"Could you come with me, I want to ask you something." She said unfriendly.
As if I don't know your intention. Cagalli still smiled, "I'm sorry, but I'm too busy right now, why don't you speak here?"
"It's rather a personal conversation, "she bit her lower lip.
"Sorry but I'm busy,"
"Busy? What kind of activities are you doing now, I saw you were only talking with them," she pointed at Milly and Lacus.
Cagalli scowled, "Then you can write that on the letter and put it in my locker, I will reply your questions as soon as possible so now get lost and don't bother me again." She said coldly.
Meyrin stared at her shockingly and Cagalli could hear her murmur, "Bitch."
She only smiled at it and returned to her chair. Lacus interrogated her, "What did she say?"
"As usual with other girls." Cagalli frowned.
Milly chuckled, "Well at lest you managed to survive until this Friday."
--------------------------
"Here she is, you can do like I say," someone said to his friend.
"Leave it to me, but I'm wondering why you want to tease her a lot," his friend replied.
"Well I dunno either, but I like to see her mad, she is funny you know?"
The other guy shrugged his shoulders, "Whatever."
Kira and Cagalli separated at the party, he joined with his friends while Cagalli joined Milly and Lacus. A moment later, Milly went to her boyfriend while Lacus went to congratulate Stellar for her birthday. When she was sitting alone on the chair, a guy with orange hair approached her.
"Hey there, can I sit here?" he said.
Cagalli nodded and turned her head away from him.
"So you're Cagalli right, a new girl in our college? My name is Heine, nice to meet you." He introduced himself.
"Nice to meet you too Heine," Cagalli replied.
He stared and examined her carefully as if she was an item. Cagalli frowned and asked him, "Why you are starring at me?"
He put his finger on his chin and answered, "Hmm, you are hot and have a nice body also."
Cagalli blinked her eyes, she couldn't believe what she had heard, "Excuse me?"
He grinned, "I said that you have a nice body, and if you wear something sexy, I bet almost the boys would be drooling on you."
Cagalli held the urge to slap him, she stood up wanting to get away from him, but he caught one of her arms.
"Let me go jerk!"
"It seems you know nothing about guys, maybe I can teach you some skill?" He leaned closer and smirked, "How about a kiss?"
Cagalli's face went pale, this guy was sick. Cagalli gave him a deadly glare and she dug her nails on his grip, he released his hand from her and stared at her in amusement.
"You better not make fun with me," Cagalli spoke as she strode away from him.
She walked until she bumped into someone, she groaned frustratingly at him.
"What's wrong with you sour face? Bad mood?" Athrun smirked.
"There is a stupid guy bothering me." She said angrily.
"You could have gone with me, I could've taken care of you from that kind of guy." He mocked.
"Thank you, but I'm not that desperate," she shoved him.
Cagalli tried to find Milly and Lacus but she couldn't find them. Where are they? She was tired from walking, she picked the beer can from the table and went to the garden. At the garden she heard someone say her name, curiously she went closer to them. That guy! Cagalli put her hand on her mouth. She saw Athrun and Heine talking.
"You should've looked at her paled face, she looked at me as she wanted to kill me at that time. And she is unbelievable, she hurt my hands with her nails." Heine spoke.
Athrun gave the soft chuckle, "I told you she is funny."
"She is but she's dangerous also, now she is you problem." Heine grinned, "And next time if you want to tease her, find another guy"
"Come on she isn't that bad." Athrun slapped his shoulder, "But thanks for it."
Cagalli blinked her eyes, Athrun and Heine knew each other and they tried to make fun of her? How dare they, she muttered angrily. Cagalli called them, "Hey you two!"
When both of them turned their head at her, she threw the beer can to Heine's head, even he was soaked with the beer, she didn't stop. She opened her handbag and threw her hairbrush and the face powder on him.
"Ouch stop that!" Heine begged, while Athrun laughed.
She looked at Athrun and she took of her left shoe then aimed it at his head. But he managed to evade it and catch it. He smiled with amusement at her and went toward her.
"Should I place the shoe on your left foot or you could do that alone?" He smiled mockingly at her.
She snatched her shoe from his hand and wore it. She heard her cell phone ring, she picked it up and answered it.
"Hey sis where are you?"
"I am in the garden, where a stupid dork standing in front of me. Now get yourself down here and meet me at the entrance, we're going home." She ordered him angrily, Kira agreed, he knew that he better not mess out with her when she was angry. After she placed her phone in her handbag, she walked toward the entrance leaving Athrun that was laughing uncontrollably.

AN : I guess I am so evil to Cagalli -sorry- but makes Athrun win is easier than Cagalli lol (need to figure out how to make Cagalli wins once in a while :P). About who will win the bet, still don't decide it yet, maybe Athrun, Cagalli or tie xD. And after this maybe my update will be slow, sorry kinda busy with school, and work.
