Chapter 5

"Lacus!" Kira shouted and jumped up from the bed.

He didn't know what to do. He wanted to hug her, he wanted to kiss her, but he was afraid he would hurt her somehow.

"Kira..." Lacus smiled at him. Her head was aching and she was weak, but she wanted nothing more, than be in Kira's arms again.

"I..." Kira wanted to kill himself. He hated the fact he couldn't voice his feelings for her! God damn it he was so close to losing her... he thought he lost her and now that he got her back he was staring at her with open mouth and couldn't tell her what she meant to him!

"I... I knew you would find us." Lacus whispered smiling at him kindly. She, as always, could read in his eyes like he was an open book. She knew it was difficult for him to voice his feelings but the way he always looked at her and the small hugs and kisses they shared in private were enough for her.

Kira cursed. God damn it, maybe he couldn't voice it, but sure like hell he could show her what she meant to him!

"Kira, don't worry, I know yo-" Her eyes went incredible wide with surprise.

Kira kissed her like there was no tomorrow. He had never been so passionate before, but Lacus couldn't help but like this new side of Kira. After what seemed like forever, Kira pulled away slowly.

"I... I thought I lost you." he whispered huskily.

Tears gathered in his eyes but he didn't cried. The time when he cried easily had already passed. However, he couldn't help the lonely tear that escaped his eyes. These feelings were too much to bear.

Lacus whipped the lonely tear away and caressed his face gently. "I know... When they kidnapped us and let the Eternal explode, making sure the Archangel can see it through the video channel... I knew what you all would think..."

Kira buried his face in her hand his heart beating fast. He had always known how important Lacus was for him, but this few weeks proved him, she meant even more to him than he thought... He was willing to die because he thought she was dead. Once Athrun had told him, he loved her too much for his own good. Back then he didn't answer of course, he was too shy to admit that he loved her, however everyone already knew it. But now he knew what Athrun meant.

Suddenly the door opened and Cagalli and Athrun entered the room.

"Lacus!" Cagalli cried and ran to the bed and took the pink haired girl's hand in her own.

"Cagalli." Lacus smiled gently at her. Kira placed an invisible kiss on her palm and letting her hand go, he took a few steps back and leant against the wall never taking his eyes off of her.

Athrun's sharp coordinate eyes noticed his friend's small gesture and he raised an eyebrow but didn't say a word about it. Instead, he walked to the bed as well and smiled down at Lacus.

"You scared us." He whispered.

"I am sorry." Lacus smiled back. Suddenly she looked around frowning.

"Mr. Waltfeld? Where is he? Is he all right?" she asked suddenly worried.

"He is fine. He was tired but that is all, you know him." Cagalli answered.

"Lacus, I am really happy, that you are all right, but what happened?" Athrun said after a while.

"It is something, you all should know about. Can you call Ms. Murrue, Mu, and Mr. Waltfeld, please?" Lacus said.

Athrun nodded and left to get the others.

Once everybody was in Lacus' room, she and Andrew told them, what had happened on the day, when the Eternal was exploded.

"They attacked us all of a sudden. We didn't even notice them near the Eternal." Lacus began.

"They used very strong Gundams... It is hard to say but they were as strong as the strike Freedom or the Justice." Andrew added gloomy.

"How many Gundams were there?" Athrun asked frowning.

"Only 3." Lacus answered.

"3? And they managed to explode the Eternal and kidnapped both of you?" Murrue asked with disbelieve in her voice.

"Yes. We didn't even see their faces they wore some kind of masks and they had black clothes on." Andrew nodded.

"But... they were like robots... Without any emotion..." Lacus added deep in thought.

"Just like someone we all know so well was only a day ago." Mu murmured quietly but Lacus heard him.

"What? Who?" Lacus looked around frowning. Everybody glanced away from her looking everywhere but at her. Slowly she raised her eyes on Kira and gasped. The brown-haired coordinator was staring at his feet sadly.

"Kira?" Lacus asked him.

"We can talk about this later, but now tell us what happened after they kidnapped you." Mu interrupted her. Lacus glanced at Kira one more time then turned to Mu again.

"Once they kidnapped us, they waited for the Archangel to connect us and making extra sure the video channel was working when they exploded the Eternal." Lacus said.

"I am pretty sure they wanted you to see, that Eternal exploding... They wanted Kira to believe Lacus was dead." Andrew added turning to the brown-haired coordinator.

"It can be... We even found your hairclip, Lacus." Murrue said frowning.

"One of the solders took it from my hair and dropped it on the floor." Lacus nodded.

"Kira kept it." Mu added.

Kira walked to the bed again and taking the hairclip from his packet, he gave it to Lacus. Lacus smiled at him gently and put the hairclip back in her hair.

"Okay, so they wanted Kira to think Lacus was dead, but why? What did they want to achieve with it?" Murrue asked frowning and deep in thought.

"They were talking about this on their ship. We only heard a part of the conversation, but they wanted to attack you and see if he and his fighting skills changed or not."Andrew said.

"They would have been surprised then..." Athrun muttered.

"Do we know anything else about them?" Murrue asked breaking the uncomfortable silence.

"They are... they mentioned the destiny plan, and how it was the perfect ideology." Lacus said quietly. Her eyes were half closed already. Her head was slightly aching again and she was close to falling asleep. Kira noticed this and stood up.

"We can talk about it later, Lacus needs to rest." He said finally and the others nodded in agreement.

Once everyone left the room and Kira was alone with Lacus again he sight.

"Kira? What happened? What happened while I was gone?" she asked.

Kira looked in her blue and trusting eyes. He felt like the lowest being in the world at that moment. Lacus would be so disappointed with him... Would she... would she leave him once she found out what he did?

"Kira?"

"Lacus... I... I thought I would die without you... You keep me insane and..." He couldn't help but look away from her innocence eyes.

Suddenly, small hands caressed his face and he raised his eyes on her once more.

"No matter what you did Kira, I won't leave you alone... ever." Lacus smiled and Kira buried his face in her hands with a deep sigh. It was time to tell her the true...
