Only For You

The room was quiet and serene. A slight but sweet jasmine fragrance filled the air of the room.

Cagalli watched Athrun as his chest gradually went up, then down. His breath was deep and slow. His lips were slightly parted and gentle sounds of air entering and exiting could be heard. His emerald eyes were closed, hiding their magnificence from view.

Cagalli observed the soundly sleeping Athrun on her lap. He must have been exhausted from all the work. He did not have a proper rest for a few days, working all the way till dawn, and therefore when he decided to fall asleep on her lap, she did not mind it at all. In fact she was glad Athrun could finally put back his worries and have a good sleep to refresh his fatigued body.

Gently, Cagalli caressed Athrun's midnight blue hair. It was silky and soft. She noticed his lashes were long and his nose was high and sharp. As a woman, he would be really beautiful, she thought. As a man, he was really, really handsome. She was not the only one to fall to his charms, she knew. However, the fact that Athrun had only eyes for her made her feel happy as well as honoured. He always said she was stunning, but she did not feel that way. She was a big tomboy who hated dresses and make up. She was also not as demure as other girls like Lacus. Cagalli did not know what made him think that way, but she was determined to keep her place in his heart.

Slowly, Cagalli's hands touched Athrun's cheek. She brushed some hair back to his ear which had accidentally fallen over his face. At this, Athrun moved slightly and let out a grunt before going back to sleep. Cagalli gave a little giggle at this. He looked so vulnerable now; just like a little baby. Perhaps this was the only time the Justice pilot would look so defenceless, and she was the only one who could witness it. All these special privileges were reserved for her, and only her.

Cagalli watched Athrun in his peaceful slumber. He had tired himself out for her. No matter what he did, it was always for her. He had totally given his heart to her, together with all his love. Cagalli knew that. Athrun would always take the initiative to kiss her, embrace her, or whisper the words "I love you" to her. She felt a little guilty for not showing her affections for him. He was always uneasy on whether she loved him, and not other men. He did his best to prove his feelings, even to the extent of chasing her suitors away. Athrun had a jealous streak, and it would surface only for her.

Cagalli smiled as Athrun continued his peaceful breathing. She gently touched his forehead, then his blue hair, then his cheek. He was oblivious to all her loving caresses and continued his sweet dreams. Cagalli bent down to kiss Athrun on his cheek.

"I love you Athrun." she whispered.
