Meyrin glanced at the calm boy next to her. His blue hair ruffled just the slightest bit in the wind, setting her heart off. She had been there for him when ZAFT was after him. She had been there for him when he was injured. And most importantly, she had been there for him when Cagalli broke his heart.

They walked under the cherry blossom trees, little flowers getting stuck in Meyrin's hair. Laughing, Athrun brushed them off.

Meyrin smiled. She wondered why Athrun had taken her there. She wondered how he knew that cherry blossoms were her favourite flowers.

"Hey Athrun?"

"Yeah?"

"Why did you take me here?"

"You'll see."

Athrun took her hand and pulled her closer to him. Meyrin blushed. Just when Meyrin was almost in his arms, he flicked her forehead lightly and jumped away.

"Tagged! You're it!"

Meyrin laughed.

"Hey! No fair!"

Meyrin began to chase after Athrun, both of them laughing like children. Cherry blossoms fell all around Meyrin and she laughed as she brushed them off.

Just then, Meyrin tripped over a rock. She closed her eyes, mentally preparing for the impact which never came. She opened her eyes and found herself in Athrun's arms. He was no longer smiling.

"Be careful," he told her.

Meyrin nodded.

Athrun smiled and planted a kiss on her forehead.

He helped her back on her feet. Almost as soon as she was upright, Athrun went down on his knees.

"Athrun?!"

Athrun placed a finger over Meyrin's lips, hushing her.

"I love you, Meyrin Hawke. Will you marry me?"

Athrun took out a small box from his pocket and opened it, revealing a ring with a small pink diamond on it.

Meyrin was lost for words, it was so beautiful.

"I-I…"

Meyrin stood there, speechless for a minute until she noticed Athrun's facial expression changing. He looked… sad. Suddenly, she realized that he must have thought that she didn't want to marry him.

"Don't you dare keep that ring, Athrun Zala!" Meyrin cried as Athrun was about to close the box.

Athrun looked up at her expectantly, still on his knees.

"So… that means you'll marry me?"

"Yes you idiot! Yes!"

Overjoyed, Athrun slipped the ring on Meyrin's slender finger and jumped up to embrace her, kiss her.

"Oh, Athrun! It's beautiful! Where did you get it?"

Athrun blushed.

"It was my mother's. She told me to give it away when I found someone I really loved."

Tears sparkled in Meyrin's eyes.

Athrun saw this and kissed away the threatening tears.

"I love you, Meyrin."

"I love you, Athrun."

Er... yeah... I know that Meyrin won't call Athrun an idiot but I just felt like that line needed it.
