Chapter 7 rewind

Athrun walked to the men's clothing department and stopped when he heard laughter. A kind of laughter that was too familiar. A laugh that belonged to a certain blonde-headed girl.

He paced faster, and faster. His heart skipping a beat every second. Then he stopped. He stopped and looked at the scene in front of him.

Cagalli and some other guy, laughing. By the looks of it, they were close. A bit too close.

Athrun's heart sank as he felt a pang of jealousy hit his chest.


Cagalli kept laughing, mainly at herself. But she stopped when she saw a blue haired teenager by the name of Athrun. She looked to the floor. Almost as if she was guilty of them being that close to Ahfmed.

Ahfmed heard the silence in the air and stopped laughing. He noticed that Cagalli was staring at the guy with blue hair.

Cagalli gave Athrun a hand signal for him to come over, she put her hand on his shoulder. He Athrun relaxed at Cagalli's touch.

She used her right hand to point at Athrun, "Ahfmed, this is Athrun Zala. A new coordinator from PLANT. He just came here yesterday. And Athrun, this is Ahfmed one of my friends at school."

Ahfmed uneasily took out his hands from his pocket and placed it in front of Athrun. They shook hands. Cagalli felt the jealousy between the two, but she didn't know it was jealousy, rather the feeling of false trust.

"Cagalli, uh Kira and Lacus were calling for us, so uhh... I decided to come and get you..." he shyly said.

Cagalli blushed, she knew that wasn't really wasn't the truth.

Athrun spoke again even shyer that before, "I'm sorry if I intruded on anything important...You can continue..."

He turned and started to walk away, when Cagalli grabbed his hand.

"Umm, can you wait for me? I was just about to leave..."

Athrun stopped as he felt her let go of his hand, she went up to Ahfmed.

"Bye!"

Ahfmed suddenly blushed, "Bye..."

The two walked out of the men's clothing department, in silence. For once in his life, there was something that he never felt before. It was like a mix of anger yet, that wasn't totally it. There was also a small kind of fear. A fear of loss. Although he had never felt it before in his life, he knew it must have been because of Cagalli. Ever since he met her yesterday, he had been feeling all these kinds of emotions towards her. And that kissing plan of his, it included parts of those feelings too. He just didn't know what to expect from his feelings anymore. Its almost like they had abandoned him.

Cagalli couldn't take the silence anymore, although she knew of the feeling that now existed between Athrun and Ahfmed, so she took the careful approach.

"Athrun? Did you get your rollerblades?" She asked almost silently.

Athrun chuckled, while he remembered his "rollerblading" accident.He just nodded his head.


Lacus cooed at the cute dogs that were happily jumping from place to place in their glass prison. Kira as much as he wouldn't want to ruin it, knew that they had to go. It was almost eleven, and they had to go eat lunch and do some other stuff. Also they had to aquaintace Athrun with Orb. Or at least the part where they lived in. Kira Lowered himself to Lacus' kneeling position.

"Lacus...we have to go now.." Kira said sadly.

"Yes, I think we should, Cagalli and Athrun are waiting for us..." Lacus agreed.

She looked at another puppy before standing up. It was one with thick white fur, and was a small dog.

They both started walking.


I can't believe you!

Get out of my head!

Athrun! I can't believe you didn't rip him to shreads!

WHAT? Are you joking! I would never rip someone's head off... That's just plain disgusting.

Well by the looks of it, you were pretty disgust-ED when you saw those two so close together.

Ugh! Go away!

Just admit it... It's called "Love at first sight" and we all get it sometime!

Admit what? I'm not admitting anything. Especially to the likes of you!

You love her..."L-O, L-O, L-O, L-O-V-E"

Eww! Don't sing that song! That song is for girls!

Well you do get the point, don't you?

What point? I don't love her!

Yes you do! I know you better than I know myself...

I am you...

Wait...If I am you I can make you disappear right?

Nope.

I hate you...

I love you too! But wait...you love Cagalli! Boo hoo... I have no one to love! Wait does Cagalli have a conscience? Maybe you could hook us up wink wink

Is that even possible?

I don't know...

Athrun shook his head. In the meantime, Cagalli was watching him. Actually for about five minutes. He was making weird faces. Although what was really weird about it, was that there was no one to make weird faces to.

When Athrun snapped back to reality he practically jumped to the left. The far left. The far left where the wall was located.

Athrun winced, "What the hell was that for!"

"Hey that's my line!" Cagalli snapped.

"You were making all these weird faces, and well I thought you were like going on some mental breakdown or something."

Athrun gave her a strange glare.

"I am NOT mental..."

"Well it looked like you were.. "

"Well I'm not..."

"Whatever you say..."

Athrun stared at her, and she smiled. She felt her cheeks turn red, but she still kept smiling nonetheless.

The four finally met up and Athrun payed for his rollerblades. The four decided to eat lunch before going to the park. After about an hour the four walked to the park and each of them put their rollerblades on...

"Left, right, left, right. That's it!" Cagalli said as she watched Athrun skate in front of her.

"Hey Cagalli! Look I'm getting it!" Athrun said excitedly. A few seconds after that he fell. Cagalli rushed to his aid laughing.

"Athrun! Are you ok?" Cagalli said half laughing, half talking.

Athrun made a straight made, and after a few seconds he joined Cagalli's laughter. Cagalli held Athrun's back and sat so that his head would be close to her lap. Their eyes met, and suddenly butterflies burst between the both of them. But they didn't care, they just kept laughing.

Cagalli helped Athrun up, "Let's start again, shall we?"

Athrun got up as Cagalli held his shoulder, her arms raised slightly above her level. Athrun was a bit more taller than Cagalli, but only by a little bit. Now she held his left arm as she was now behind him.

"Ok..." she began, "First, use your left foot, then your right foot... "

Athrun drew in a deep breath, as he put himself in to concentration mode.

"Left, right, left--"

"Right, left, right.."

Cagalli skated behind Athrun, almost touching him. She held his left arm and his right shoulder for support. They started off skating really slowly and uneven, then the pace started to pick up. WHen she knew thatAthrunwas getting the hang of it, she relaxed, knowing that Athrun wouldn't fall, and she relaxed. She watched how their feet were moving in unison and how they were moving in the exact same speed. She actually thought it looked pretty cool.

Athrun stiffened a bit which made Cagalli snap back and tighten her grip on Athrun.

"You okay?" Cagalli asked.

Athrun laughed, "Yeah..."

They continued to skate around the park, Cagalli inhaled his cologne. Her stomach got butterflies in her stomach again.

Why the hell do I keep getting these butterflies?

You perfectly know why...

Heh...Oh its you...

So you recognize me! I'm so proud!

How lovely, I get to talk to my conscience about something that is absolutely none of her business.

What! None of her business my ass! You liked his cologne!

I do not.

Her mind instantly stopped. She felt Athrun starting to tumble, so she fell on him.

Oddly, Athrun's body lay facing the sky, and Cagalli's lay face down on top of Athrun. He felt a little dizzy and closed his eyes for a second and took a few deep breaths. His left hand was on Cagalli's back stoking it trying to make sure she was ok.

"Cagalli?"

Cagalli didn't answer.

Her face was on top of his chest, but he knew she was still alive, she was still breathing.

"Cagalli?"

He got worried and sat up. His face turned panic striken, because she suddenly didn't breathe. There they both sat on the hard cement, Athrun held Cagalli in place as he moved her body so that it could be the same way he was facing. He held her close to his heart.

In her mind Cagalli was playing an evil trick. For obviously getting him back, but from what?

Flashback

Cagalli and Athrun walked in silence after he discovered her and Ahfmed's short conversation. Athrun thought to himself evilly, and called Cagalli's name.

She turned to face him and then it happened.

He started to tickle her.

No one knew that Cagalli was ticklish. Athrun only guessed, and he actually pinpointed her weak point.

"Say sorry!" Athrun told her as he pinned themselves onto the carpet.

"Never!" Cagalli said in defense.

"Fine!" Athrun said tickling her more

(Athrun's mind)

You so love this!

Getting revenge? Very much so...

No! You love being on top of her!

What are you implying?

That you want her in your pants!

What?

(Out of Athrun's mind)

"Athrun! Athrun! Ahah! Stopp!" Cagalli wiggled under him.

"What do you say?" Athrun pleasurably spoke.

"Ahaha! So- Ahaha! Sorr- Ahaha! SORRY!"

Athrun got off her, and helped Cagalli up to her feet.

"I hate you..." Cagalli spoke as she tried to regain her breath.

"Thank you..." Athrun laughed.

End of Flashback

She was trying to pretend she fell unconsious. Although when Athrun brought her into a sitting position, she felt herself breathe a bit heavier. She decided to now continue with her plan and stopped breathing. Then she felt him pull her closer to his chest where his heart was.

His heart.

His loudly, thumping, beating heart.


Cliffhanger? ok you know what? I don't know what to call this one, so yah... call it whatever you want. haha Whatever lights up you pants! XD XD XD ...This is like the eighth chapter, and in the story it's only been one day... or two...
