You and Me
At Athrun Zala's Party
The crystal chandelier was lit, the band played, the food was served, and the guests were either eating or dancing. Tonight was going to be interesting.
Meyrin Hawke was currently fixing her fiancé's tux when she asked "Is Lacus coming?"
"Oh, yes. She is." Athrun answered. "She's coming with Kira."
"Kira, too?" she said, sounding (1) excited. "Good, then I need to be closed to them before the wedding. Everything's going to be perfect!"
"Hold your horses, Meyrin." he said and (2) placed a kiss on her forehead. "We're not getting married yet. And it's my party tonight, remember?"
"Yes. Yes, of course." she giggled. "I'll be off chatting with some of the guests. Have fun!" And just like that, she walked away.
Athrun smiled. He was happy Meyrin did this for him, since he really hasn't had much time to himself for the past month. Though, he can't help but feel that something was going to happen tonight. Something unusual.
oOo
"You can do this, Cagalli. You can do this!" she thought to herself and sighed. "Damn it ,I hate this dress!"
"You ready, Cagalli?" Lacus asked before stepping out of the car.
The blonde nodded and stepped out, only to be greeted by flashing cameras and reporters. She, Kira, and Lacus were protected by bodyguards, so they were safe on the way to the entrance. And guess who was there to greet them?
"Cagalli!" A familiar, auburn-haired girl said and hugged her. "Oh my God, I missed you!"
"I missed you, too, Milly."
"Well. Well. If it isn't Orb's princess." Dearka said and hugged her. "How're you doing?"
"I'm doing fine." she said with her teeth clenched. "And I told you not to call me that!"
The tanned man chuckled. "Same old Cagalli."
"Try not to cause any trouble tonight, though." A platinum blonde said.
"Same as you, Joule." It was true, though. If Cagalli made a bad impression on anyone tonight, things might not turn out as planned.
"By the way, why are you here?" he asked.
Shiho nudged Yzak on his stomach. "Stop being so rude all the time!" Then, she turned to Cagalli. "Sorry, he's still having trouble with his 'anger issues'."
"I do not have issues!" Yzak shot and crossed his arms. "I'm just pissed because the representative of Orb isn't accepting my proposals for the sake of peace."
Cagalli smirked. "Who would accept a drawing of an earth full of flowers with ponies and fairies on it?"
Yzak's eyes widened.
Shiho face palmed and said "Yzzie must've switched it."
Yzak sighed. "I'll talk to her about this later. For now, I apologize, Cagalli."
"WOOT!" Dearka shouted and laughed. "I never knew a bad ass person like you would actually apologize to someone. Congratulations."
"Why you-"
Lacus put her hands on the two men's shoulders and pushed them away from each other. "Enough of this, boys." She looked at Miriallia. "Please try control Dearka."
Miriallia nodded.
Then at Yzak. "Yzak, try to enjoy yourself. It's a party. Go talk about political stuff later."
Yzak groaned and crossed his arms. "Fine." Really, when it came to Lacus, there was always no other choice.
Kira shook his head. "I still don't know how you do that."
oOo
Athrun looked down from the balcony and noticed a crowd forming. The volume of the guests' voices was increasing, too. Maybe Meyrin was blabbing about their wedding again? Probably not. Everyone already knew about that, so he decided to take a look.
As he went down the stairs, he grew more curious. What was getting everyone's attention that wasn't on him? It was his party, right? Well, not that he really wanted attention, but still.
When he finally made it passed the crowd, his eyes widened. Why was she here? Well, not that he didn't want her to be, but why?
It's been five years since he's seen her and… he missed her. He missed staring into those fiery amber orbs and running his hands through those beautiful golden locks, which was currently styled in a unique manner. The ends were curled and some of hair it was clipped to the side, but her bangs remained where they were. She was also wearing a green strapless dress, with a black swirly pattern, and a black ribbon tied to her waist. Three words: Simple but elegant. If Athrun knew one thing about Cagalli it was that she didn't like to stand out. She wanted to be the real her in front of people.
"Athrun." he heard her call his name. He looked at her face. Her makeup was light, so her natural beauty was shown. God, she was beautiful!
As he stepped closer to her, he couldn't help but panic inside, but he knew better than to show it. Right now, he and Cagalli are just acquaintances and he and Meyrin are together. Thinking about it made him a bit sad, but he had to face reality. He took a deep breath and made a stop. He smiled. "Hello Cagalli."
(1) She's SOOO FC -.- BTW Did you guys prepare the stuff I told you to prepare? ATTACK! XD
(2) I can't believe I made Athrun do that. Gomen, Cagalli -.-
