Cagalli, Lacus, Kira and the children were all ready to go to the ball. Kira wore a black tuxedo. Cagalli and Lacus wore the dresses they bought at the store. They were all waiting for a big van, requested from Uzumi Nara Attha to come and pick the children up since there was no room in Kira's car.

Then a black van pulled up. The children ran up to it once it stopped. Kira opened the door up for them and each child hoped in a single file line. Lacus started to giggle.

Then Cagalli and Lacus and Kira went into Kira's black convertible. Kira in the front, Lacus beside him and Cagalli in the back. He turned on the engine and they all zoomed off to the party.

They reached the party and already found a parking spot. They entered and saw a huge ball room with a lot of people. Music was going on and people were already dancing. Kira pulled Lacus onto the dance floor and danced while leaving Cagalli all alone.

Cagalli went to get some punch, and noticed a blue haired guy standing there holding some punch while talking with 2 people. Yes, both were guys, one of them had blonde hair and tan skin. The other had silver hair, and pale skin. Cagalli walked over to them but stopped when a dark pinked haired girl, who looked like Lacus, link her arm with Athrun. She clinged to him like a magnet. Cagalli looked down, but still continued to walk to get some punch. Athrun noticed Cagalli. "Hey, Cagalli." He waved at her while she was approaching. He smiled at how beautiful she looked. She was wearing a green dress with her hair tied up in a pony tale, then clipped up so you could see a little fringe in the back. Around her neck seemed to be something gold and dangling but couldn't quiet see. She smiled back at him, trying to keep her cool and not kill the pink haired girl. She finally reached her destination and got some punch.

"You look nice today Cagalli" Athrun said.

"Thanks Athrun you look good too" Cagalli said with a low tone.

"Athrun who is she?" This time the girl clinging to Athrun said.

"O, this is Cagalli, and Cagalli this is Meer" He said.

"Hmm...I see, nice to meet you." Cagalli said while shaking hands with Meer.

Meer gave Cagalli an evil glare. "Nice to meet you too, Cagalli" she said in a sarcastic voice.

"Well I think I should go find Lacus and Kira" Cagalli said turning back to the dance floor and walking.

The two couples watched as she left. Meer smiled evilly.

1 hour past. Lacus, Kira and Cagalli were sitting at a table chatting. Then Athrun came and joined.

"Hey Athrun" Lacus and Kira said in unison. Cagalli only smiled.

"Hey you guys, mind if I join?"

"Yeah, go ahead Athrun." Kira said while Athrun took a seat beside Cagalli.

"So...Where's Meer?" Cagalli asked him

He frowned "O, she said she had to go do something."

"O" Cagalli mouthed and ignored his frown.

Music started playing again this time it was slow dance music. "O Kira come on lets go dance!" Lacus said in a excited voice. She loved slow dances.

"Ok, Lacus lets go." Kira said while standing up in his chair. Then they both walked to the dance floor and started slow dancing. While Cagalli and Athrun watched. "They look like their both a perfect match for each other." Cagalli said while watching Kira and Lacus dance.

"Yeah" Athrun said and stood up. He put his hand out "May I have this dance Ms?" He said while smiling charmingly. Cagalli looked at his hand surprised, then up to him. She smiled and took his hand "Why yes sir" while standing up and walking to the dance floor with him. Athrun put his hand on her waste while Cagalli put her hand on his shoulder. They started dancing. Cagalli was leaning on his shoulder, while Athrun held her close, like he wanted to protect her form a bear. They barely moved. Cagalli wanted to stay with him like this forever.

"HELLO EVERYONE" a voice said, it interupted Cagalli's thoughts and the music. "WE HAVE AN ANNOUCEMENT" everyone one looked at the announcer "MEER CAMPBELL AND ATHRUN ZALA ARE ENGAGED." There was a cheer in the crowd. Cagalli and Athrun gasped. Athrun looked at Cagalli; she seemed to be really shocked. "A-A-Athrun, y-y-you, I-I-I h-h-hate y-y-you." Cagalli yelled and started to tremble. She pushed Athrun away, not caring whoever saw. Cagalli ran crying. Athrun ran after her. Lacus and Kira were also shocked at this news and noticed Cagalli running and crying. "CAGALLI!" Kira yelled and ran after her as well. Lacus ran after her as well. Athrun caught up to Cagalli and grabbed her wrist. "LET GO!" she yelled. Athrun pulled her into a hug. Kira and Lacus arrived and saw what was going on. Cagalli pulled back and freed herself from the hug, and then she ripped the dangling thing around her neck. "This, This is the locket you gave m-m-me" Cagalli started crying more "I tried to give it back to you, but I could never let it go, I didn't want to let you go. But now I don't even care, I hate you Athrun!" Cagalli yelled in a now angry voice, then she threw the locket at Athrun's chest and it landed on the ground. Then she turned and ran away again.

Athrun looked down at the locket on the ground and kneeled down to pick it up. He held it tight in his hands, and tears started to form in his eyes.

Meanwhile Kira ran after Cagalli while Lacus stayed back with Athrun. "KIRA I WANT TO GO HOME NOW!" Cagalli yelled, finally stopping at her running and turning to Kira.

"Ok Cagalli." Kira simply said with a sad face.

Cagalli was back at the children's shelter, changed out of her dress and into a white t-shirt and silky purple pajama pants. The green dress was laid neatly down on her bed. Kira went back to the ball to pick Lacus up. Cagalli sat on her bed hugging her knees and crying. "Damn you Zala!" she mumbled to herself.

Then she got up and went into Lacus's room to get some music to occupy herself. She just picked a random cd and went back to her room. She popped into her stereo and pressed play. She then sat on her bed listing to the words of the song.

In this world you tried
Not leaving me alone behind
There's no other way

I'll pray to the gods: let him stay
The memories ease the pain inside
Now I know why

Athrun entered the shelter with Lacus and Kira. Athrun wanted to try and convince Cagalli that he still loved her. "Cagalli, please open the door, please." There was no answer.


All of my memories
Keep you near
It's all about us
Imagine you'd be here
All of my memories
Keep you near
The silent whispers
The silent tears

"Cagalli, please hear me" Kira started to knock on it "Athrun's here he wants to talk to you, please open the door for him."

"GO AWAY!" There was a yell from the other side of the door

Made me promise I'd try
To find my way back in this life
I hope there is away
To give me a sign you're okay
Reminds me again
It's worth it all
So I can go home

But Athrun wouldn't give up "Please Cagalli, please open the door I have to talk to you!" He said tears forming in his eyes

"I SAID GO AWAY, LEAVE ME ALONE!" Another yell came from the other side of the door.

All of my memories
Keep you near
It's all about us
Imagine you'd be here
All of my memories
Keep you near
The silent whispers
The silent tears

Still Athrun kept on knocking on the door "Cagalli I won't give up on you, please open the door!"

"NO DAMMIT LEAVE ME ALONE, GO BACK TO MEER, I HATE YOU, I DON'T CARE ABOUT YOU ANYMORE!" Cagalli said. Her back against the door, crying.

Together in all these memories
I see your smile
All the memories I hold dear
Darling you know I love you till the end of time

"Cagalli-" Athrun started but stopped. It was no use she won't open the door. "I just wanted to tell you that I don't love Meer..."

All of my memories
Keep you near
It's all about us
Imagine you'd be here
All of my memories
Keep you near
The silent whispers
The silent tears

"I LOVE YOU!" Tears started sliding down his cheeks.

Cagalli's eyes widened "H-he l-loves m-me" Cagalli decided to open the door. She stood up and turned the knob. But when she opened it no one was there anymore. She then walked down to the kitchen and spotted Lacus and Kira sitting in chairs looking concerned. "L-Lacus, K-Kira" she said while trembling "W-where's A-Athrun?"

The concerned couple looked up to see Cagalli. "He left Cagalli, since you wouldn't open the door." Kira said. Lacus just stood up and gave Cagalli a hug. Cagalli started to cry again.
