Make You Mine

"I'm sorry ma'am but they got away."

Luna just stared at Rey her face unreadable. On the one hand she was furious that the Archangel had managed to slip right from under their noses on the other hand, she knew exactly where they were headed.

"Excuses are not tolerated! However I guess I should be thanking you Rey." Luna said her voice not once changing from her practiced commanders' tone.

Rey looked at the shorter woman in confusion. "I don't understand."

Luna smiled and reached into her pocket pulling out the map she had found in the shop. Handing it to the blond she smiled. "I found this in that weapons shop. If not for you I can only assume that they wouldn't have dropped this."

Rey took the map and looked at it. "You think that this is where they are headed?"

Luna smiled with a nod. "Yes, if we hurry we can make it there just after they arrive."

"Are you positive?"

Glaring Luna snatched the map back and growled. "Yes, I'm positive!"

Sighing Rey took a step back. "I'm just saying it seems like a long shot to just be basing this decision on a piece of paper that we don't even know if it even belongs to anyone on the Archangel."

Luna grinned. "Oh but I do."

Showing the map Luna allowed Rey to get a closer look. "See that symbol it belongs to Captain Ulen of the Coordinator."

Upon closer inspection Reys eyes widened.

Luna smirked. "There is only one person who could have this, Kira Yamato Captain of the Archangel…"

"Captain Ulens son." Rey finished with a smile.

Archangel

Lacus sighed as she sat on the edge of the railing of the Archangel.

"Something the matter Lacus?" Cagalli asked approaching the solemn girl.

Lacus looked at Cagalli and offered a feeble smile. "I'm fine it's just that today I really saw what being a Pirate all is about."

Cagalli looked at the other girl in confusion. "I don't understand. I would figure that you would understand all this when we raided your village."

Lacus frowned remembering her dead father. "No, then everything went so fast that I didn't have a chance to really grasp what was going on. It wasn't until after wards that I really understood the situation I was in, but today I saw the danger of being a Pirate. When you raided my village you were basically unopposed, no one was there to stand up against you. You all could have been killed today."

Sighing Cagalli turned around so that her back was leaning up against the railing next to Lacus. "I guess you're still not used to the idea of fighting."

Shaking her head Lacus spoke quietly. "I don't think I'll ever get used to it."

Shrugging Cagalli made a move to leave. "I suppose so; you're too soft for this lifestyle….although if I were you I would talk to Kira about this."

Looking at the girl Lacus mumbled. "Huh?"

Laughing slightly Cagalli placed her hands behind her head. "If he did die today you two would have spent the rest of your lives not talking." With that the blonde left.

Lacus cringed. It was true she hadn't spoken to Kira ever since he had shouted at her for disobeying his orders or more directly when she had caught him kissing Meryin.

Looking around she spotted the brown haired captain alone at the back of the ship. He seemed to be deep in though.

Standing she made her way over not knowing what she was going to say.

With Kira

"I am a complete moron." Kira grumbled to himself while glaring at the sea water below him.

"That you are but I would think you would be the last person to admit that."

Turning around Kira was prepared to snap at the person who dared to insult him only to come face to face with a pair of cerulean blue eyes.

"Lacus." Kira said dumbly. "I thought you weren't talking to me."

Lacus looked away. "I wasn't but then Cagalli said something that made me rethink that."

Kira frowned. "Oh, it that right."

Lacus nodded. "Yes, you see today when I saw you guys fighting I realized something. You could have been killed and then…I wouldn't have been to ever talk to you again."

Looking at the beautiful girl Kira sighed. "Listen I…may have said something that I didn't mean and the hole Meyrin thing….that was wrong."

Lacus looked up eyes wide. "So why did you kiss her?"

"I don't know it was more of a good-bye nothing will ever happen kiss." Kira said not knowing how to explain it. "She cared for me but I couldn't return it, and being a pirate I don't find that often, if ever. I guess in my own strange way I was trying to figure out if I was making the right decision. I felt nothing for Meyrin though. Honest."

Lacus bit her lip. "Honesty…is that something I should take word from a pirate?"

Kira looked away a little bit ashamed. True Lacus had no reason to forgive or to believe him. Being a pirate he made a living on lying, cheating, and stealing. "Honesty may not be something I am known for but this is."

Before Lacus could say a word she saw Kira lean forwards, blushing Lacus closed her eyes and waited. A few seconds later she felt the warm lips of the pirates on hers.

What seemed like minutes late Kira pulled away and looked into Lacus eyes?

Raising a hand to her lips Lacus looked at Kira perplexed. "What does this prove?"

Kira smiled. "Love."

Lacus blushed even reader if it were possible. "I don't understand…this is so sudden."

Kira shrugged. "I know I mean, we haven't even know each other for 6 months but…I do feel something for you. Wither it is truly love I don't know. I don't think I will ever know."

Lacus bit her lip thinking the situation over. After a moment she made her decision, and with a deep breath she smiled and looked up at the Captain. "That's good enough for me."

Letting out a sigh of relief Kira didn't even realize he was holding he smiled back and leaned downward slightly.

Meeting the Captain half way their lips met each other again this time in a more passionate kiss.

Letting out a slight moan Lacus wrapped her arms around the strong neck of her pirate. She could feel Kira smirking into the kiss but she ignored it and allowed the other and more experienced person deepens the kiss.

They remained that way before the demand for oxygen became too great and they parted both panting for air gently. Lacus blushed and quickly looked around hoping that no too many had witnessed their little display of affection. Luckily no one seemed to notice though she was sure she could see the smiles all the pirates seemed to be sporting.

Brining Lacus' attention back to him Kira ran his hand through her hair gently as he gazed at her face. She truly was beautiful but that wasn't why he loved her. No he felt something more beyond her looks and he was sure that even if she was another plain Jane that he would have fallen for her.

"Do you love me Lacus?" Kira asked. He wanted to hear her say those words.

Lacus blushed but nodded with out hesitation. "I do, I don't understand it, and you raided my village, killed my father, and took me away on some pirate ship and away from my fiancé."

"Fiancé?" Kira asked his tone surprised and jealous.

Lacus shook slightly at realizing her mistake not knowing if she had just ruined everything because she had let that slip.

"Yes. Yunna Syrian." Lacus said worried.

Kira frowned his brows knitting together in thought. Finally the name seemed to spark in his memory. "Oh yes I've heard of him. You are betrothed to that moron?"

Lacus nodded her eyes still showed deep worry.

Smiling Kira leaned down to whisper in her ear. "Was this an arranged marriage?"

Again Lacus nodded not seeming to be able to say a word.

A grin spread on Kiras face as an idea formed in his mind. "Well then I can't do anything about that. Marriage is a sacred thing." Kira whispered his hot breath tickling Lacus ear. "Unless of course you want to be mine and I yours…do you want that."

Finding the courage to speak Lacus spoke though her voice was soft and quiet as she felt light headed and drunk with the Captains warm breathe beating down on her neck and ear. "Yes…I do."

Kira pulled away slightly and cupped he girls face in his large hand. "Then will you let me make you mine Lacus?" Kira asked his voice was sincere and gentle no lust or selfish desire nothing but pure love and honesty.

Lacus blinked trying to requester what Kira was asking. Finally it clicked and she felt her face heat up even more if it were possible. None the less she nodded. All the religious beliefs of saving her innocence for marriage and the consequences that could follow forgotten. She was never allowed much say in her life but this was one of the few things that were hers too willingly to give.

After seeing the nod Kira smiled and gently took Lacus by the hand and led her silently to his cabin. Once at the door he looked around to see if anyone was watching. None seemed to be as the sun was setting by now and many had retired for dinner only a few remain and they were all to busy to pay attention.

Pulling Lacus into one more passionate kiss Kira asked again if she wanted this. Receiving another yes, Kira opened the door and silently lead Lacus into the dim room.
