Author's Note : Ta, ta, tadaa! So, this is the third chapter. While I'm writing all these I've been thinking, I think Kira was such a loyal and devoted guy, I even wondered if are there someone who devoted as he do? Cagalli loyal and devoted to, but she's so full with calculation, I envy her to have such a lovely guy in this fanfic like Kira, but also pity her (them) for their destiny, especially when I wrote this chapter. I've been workin my grammar here, so I hope this one better than the last. And thank you so much for your review! There are very important and precious for me, I mean it! Ahem… Well, enjoy!
Disclaimer : I don't own anything except the story.
Our Hearts now…
"Always…"
"I'm so nervous.. Darling, what if she doesn't like me?" Lacus asked worriedly. Kira and her are now in the biggest Yakiniku restaurant in Tokyo.
"Don't worry, she's nice. And you're gorgeous," Kira cup her chin and smiles slightly. Lacus feels calm only by looking his eyes. "Ah, there she is!" then suddenly, Kira stand from his seat. Cagalli and Athrun just arrives, they're walking towards him, and shake hands before they finally sit again.
"Kira, this is Athrun I'm talking about. And, Athrun, this is my beloved baby brother, Kira," Cagalli indtroduced them both.
"How do you do?" Athrun lured his right hand to Kira.
"Hi, nice to meet you," Kira shaked his hand and smiled. "Oh, Athrun, Cagalli, this is Lacus, my sweetheart," then he helped Lacus to stand up.
"Hi Cagalli, it's been my pleasure," Lacus lured her hands to Cagalli first. Or horror, Cagalli thought, she grins. "And, hallo Athrun, we meet again!" then she suddenly squeaks to Athrun.
"Good God! Lacus Clyne! Oh pink chan, how are you?" Athrun has suddenly pulled her out from the table with happiness, they're both hugging and laughing, leaving Kira and Cagalli dumbfounded. "Sorry, she's just a friend of mine. We grow up together—"
"But we get separate at college! Oh, how I miss you.." Lacus finished Athrun words, then she give him a big hug again. "It's very coincidence, and very lucky for us to get this twin, don't you think?" she let him go and look at him in the eyes.
"Certainly," Athrun nod.
"Umh.." Cagalli clears her throat. "Lucky for you, you just win a jackpot," then she forces smiled. Kira laughed and elbowed her ribs. In a couple minutes later, each couple already sit face to face, enjoyed their Yakiniku.
"So, what do you do now Kira?" asked Athrun while he cleaned some leftovers on Cagalli's lip.
Kira smiles, he does not answer it yet, just watching them. "I'm now at pilot training program, for gun ship," he finally said.
"Oh, very noble," Athrun nodded in satisfaction.
"Yes, I want to protect our country from those tyrant bastards," Kira laughed in response.
"With me then, I'll diplomacy and negotiate, try to figure a better way for peace without war. And if they don't listen to me, you can just drop a napalm bomb on them," Athrun seems interest in this topic.
"And if you start betraying our country because your diplomacy wouldn't work, or the tyrant buy you, I'll make sure one of those napalms land on your head," then Kira spoiled everything. Athrun frowned in disbelief. Cagalli clears her throat, then step on Kira's foot. "Sorry, just jokin. Just make sure to run at least ten kilo meters when I drop them," Kira smiled and played his chop stick, his sentence seems nicer, but still harsh for Athrun.
"Kira is such a nationalist, that's why he said that. Well, your work seems a bit risky by trapping in good or bad, that's why Kira warned you," Lacus, with her playful and calming tone, success to get rid the tense from them.
"That's what I'm talking about," Kira chewed and point Athrun with the chopstick. Athrun laughed in understanding. Then again, he and Cagalli started to eat their meat together. Cagalli glanced quietly to her brother, she could see him put a meat in Lacus mouth, and she could hear their slight conversation. "Thanks, you always understand me," he patted her head.
"Sure thing," Lacus smiled and leaned closer to him. Cagalli jerked her head to another direction, she feels sick to see that Kira is flirting with Lacus, while his feet rubbed playfully on her foot. They're almost finish now.
"I need to use the facilities, Athrun, you're coming?" Kira has suddenly stood up.
"No, I'm fine here," Athrun smiled and shooked his head.
"Lacus?" Kira turned to his girlfriend, Lacus also said she's fine. "Smurf?" then he asked Cagalli.
"Nah ah," Cagalli waved her hand. So he goes alone.
"Smurf?" asked Athrun while he looking to her eyes.
"It's a nick name for me, caused by tragedy. I'm going to prom on one week, but I unaccidently dyed my hair to blue," Cagalli sighed. Athrun laughed, and suddenly, his phone ring.
"Sorry, I have to pick this one, do you mind?" he asked again by looking his cell phone, and by pointing to the door. Cagalli nodded, then after he asked permission from Lacus, he went away. so it's just the girls now, getting ready for a cat fight.
"He looks happy," Lacus smiled at her.
"Who?" Cagalli back smiled.
"Both of them. I never saw Athrun that happy before, not even when he still with his previous girlfriends," Lacus answered.
"But from what I know, I'm his second girlfriend," Cagalli said.
"Oh, so he's not making a relationship after he broke up that day.." Lacus suddenly looked in a deep thought.
"Broke up from you?" Cagalli succeeded to catch her attention. Lacus just gave her a slight smile, and Cagalli doesn't like it, she never like a girl who plays mysterious. "I love your brother," she suddenly spoke again. "And he looks happy too," Lacus added.
"What do you mean? He always looks happy, all the time," Cagalli growled.
"Because it's you who always with him. His friend doesn't see it too. But I know that lonely glimpse, the fire fade, and I'm doing my best to lighten it out, but I never succeed. But today, I saw his fire for the first time," Lacus explained.
Cagalli's say nothing, she just stares at her. "You're talking about philosophy or what? My brother is human, not devil with fire eyes or something. It doesn't really necessary to saw his eyes burning or not," she joked sarcastically.
"I can do some, uh, I have some knowledge.. and so I can see, that he's fire, and you're water," Lacus tried to easier the conversation. "What I mean is, you should know that your brother was a good person, and he really loves you. He can't even live without you," she finally straighted to her point.
Cagalli locked her eyes into hers, finding if she's just make a fun of her or something, but she could only see her love, her love for Kira.
"I'm going now, smurf," Athrun leaned and kissed her cheek when he and Cagalli waited the cab infront of the restaurant. Kira take Lacus to somewhere else to waiting the cab.
"Please, babe is enough," Cagalli shook her head.
"But smurf kinda hot too," Athrun pleaded.
"No, I don't like if you use them," Cagalli crossed her hand, for the first time today, she look upset. And Athrun decided to not making this conversation any further.
"Ok, that lovely brother nick name. I'm sorry, key," he sighed and cupped her chin. She gave him a slight smile. "Well, Kira is really something."
"You don't like him?" Cagalli's voice concerned. "I'm sorry for his harsh sentence."
"Nahh.. his harsh sentence was caused because he really loves his sister and did his best to test her boyfriend," Athrun shook his head like he told Cagalli to never mind to that one. "Quite the contrary, I like his satyr, and I enjoyed my discussion with him," he embraced Cagalli and kiss her hair. Cagalli smiled and pat his back.
"Here's your cab," she let him go when a cab slide towards them. "Be careful, and good luck," she tip toed and gave a brief kiss on his lip.
"Love you," said Athrun by walking in to his cab. Cagalli laughed and say that she loves him too, then she closed the door. Watch his cab getting further from her.
Kira already waited for her at the stationary shop next from the restaurant. He watched everything. "Come here," he welcomed Cagalli to a hug, and gave her a deep kiss. "Peppermint? Hmm.. He's good," then he broke the kiss and say that.
This Romeo is bleeding
But you can't see his blood
It's nothing but some feelings
That this old dog kicked up.
"What are you doing? They're still nearby!" Cagalli punched his shoulder.
"But out of range to see us," Kira smiled and laced his fingers on her. They start walking home. "What's our precious item for today?" he asked suddenly. "I have this chopstick, which I used to pointed him all the time," he said by showing her the chopstick from his pocket.
Cagalli laughed. "I can't believe that they didn't saw us switch sherbet all the time," and showed him a white linen sherbet. "Come on Kira, what do you think of Athrun?" she finally changed the topic.
Kira just smiled and leaned again to kiss her, they really don't care if public sees them. No one will recognize them, they're just a happy couple, a happy forbidden lover. "You has find yourself a good man," he said when he broke the kiss.
Cagalli smiled, she has his approval. "Lacus's not so bad either," she lifted her shoulder.
"I was so shock that you're not choking her when Athrun and I leaved you both alone," Kira patted her head. "Why?" then he smiled.
Cagalli said nothing. But after two minutes, she finally sees into his eyes and said. "At lease she love you." Truly love you.
2 half years later:
"Wow, that's amazing Kira!" one of Kira's comrade just welcomed him after he landed in the hanger.
Kira turned the entire machine off before he finally get down from his plane. "The enemies are multiplying like bunnies, they're now two times larger in amount than one year ago," he said by releasing his helmet off. He shook his head so the sweat wouldn't wet his hair anymore. "We really need that gundam, Auel," he smiled.
"Come on, the robots keep filling your head. What about Lacus? Think about her for moment, man. You haven't back to Japan since two years ago, and we know that she will wait forever if she have too, so at least go get to call her frequently!" Auel scolded him as he watched Kira walked to one pad to check his plane status.
"She'll understand. I do it for her too, for protect her beloved childhood friend Athrun Zala," Kira grunted. He knew that Auel are having a crush in Lacus, and he'll happily give her to him if he just doesn't need to pretend anymore. And it's 100 % impossible.
"Athrun Zala? Hum.. I think I heard that name before," Auel seemed thinking. "Ahh! You're not coming home to the hanger since one week, and I forgot to tell you! The captain needs you at the hall in four hours from now," suddenly, he punched his own forehead.
"That's still long, but if you ever forgot again to informed me about everything important-" Kira began his threat.
"Sorry bro!" Auel laughed but seems apologetic.
"What does he wants with me?" Kira started to walked to the exit door.
"I think he needs his youngest and finest pilot to welcome that Athrun Zala's Lacus child hood fiancé," Auel answered.
Kira looked at him in disbelief. "Cagalli?" he mumbled.
"Yes! How do you know her name! Cagalli Yulla Atha, the new ambassador of minister human affair," Auel nodded shockly.
Kira laughed in happiness, he remembered that Cagalli phoned him three days ago and told him that she'll having a duty in some continent. But now he knew that she's going to come here in four hours, probably try to give him a surprise. Well, this is his birthday afterall. Their birthday.
~*o0O0o*~
"Welcome Miss Atha, it's been an honor for us," said Captain Murrue Ramius, when Cagalli has finally arrived at the dock.
"It's been an honor for me to be board on Archangel," Cagalli shaked her hand.
"Come, let me show you around," Murrue gave her a signal to follow her. So then, the Archangel small tour began. She shows Cagalli the pilot training ground, the hall, and etc, until they finally reach the command room.
"It's a very beautiful aircraft. But I wonder, about the new war machine, a mobile suit, known as gundam, ride by its coordinator. Can you show or tell me a little about what is it? I really have to know if it's going to affect something," said Cagalli.
"Well, you may ask our finest and youngest pilot here," Murrue nodded, and looked over Cagalli's shoulder. Cagalli turned and founded her twin brother already stood there with a smile that never changes. Cagalli gave him a slight smile. In one hour later, after some discuss about Cagalli business here and Kira objection for her, he finally managed to escape her from her escort. They're now in Kira's cabin, making love after they finally meet, they'd been separate again for two years. Just doing some cyber sex at phone or when they chat, it never been enough for them.
"Ngghh.." she let a soft moan escaped her lips when Kira has finally pulled all his manhood from her hole. She can feel some liquids falls and wet the sheets around her vagina and her thighs. Their cum as great as usual.
"Glad you here smurf, happy birthday," Kira leaned and kiss her forehead, then lay next to her with one elbow held his weight.
"It's always feels like the first time," Cagalli smiled and caress his flushed cheek.
"Lord Djibril, I can say that I don't like that man, and you're going to risk your ass at him?" Kira wiped her sweat gently. She never felt anyone touched her as gently as him, not her previous fake-boyfriend, not even her mother. It's a lot different sensation which makes her muscles relax.
"Why?" Cagalli asked and turned herself to his side. She took his hand that wiped her face before, and kiss it softly.
"Smurf, he was once tried to kill all future coordinator, thank God he's failed, and he seems suspicious.." Kira explained. His eyes are trying to assure her, that he's not playing around with his words.
"Maybe he has good reasons to be," Cagalli cupped his chin.
"Smurf, he almost killed me back then and you're defend him?"
"Oh, sorry," Cagalli seemed apologetic.
"Just," Kira sighed. "Does it have to be you? I mean, can't Athrun replace you or something? I have bad feelings about this. And you know how much it's accurate," he pleaded.
"Kira, you know what will I say, right?" Cagalli asked, which means she can't do what he wants. His gaze weakened. "Oh, brother.. I'll be fine, I promise. I have you with me. Can we stop discussing this? And by the way, you're going to ride your mobile suit for the first time tomorrow, aren't you glad?" she snug and cuddled herself at his chest, tried to comfort him. He hugged and caress her hair in response.
"Of course I'm happy," he laughed. "Hey smurf," then he looked down at her.
"Yes sweetie?"
"You always look great, and I'm sure you'll do great," he smiled warmly and couraging.
"Well, you too," Cagalli moved up a bit to caught his lip.
"Umhhh.." Kira moan, he always wonder why her kisses always feels this great, fiery, she always succeed to raised the heat again. They role on his bed while their tongues fighting for dominate, until he above her again. He broke their kiss and began brushing his lips trailing down her neck and breast, then he suck gently once again to her left boobs while playing his hands on the other nipple. He can feel her pulse, her heart beat, he enjoys fill her in pleasure, he knew it from her moans, her groans. Then he massaging her clit and enters her again with two fingers, stimulates her. She screams in passion, and he covers it by kissing her, before all archangel wakes and caught them.
"Are you going to enter me?" she asked desperately.
"What? Can't go another round?" he grinned.
"I was about to tease you that," Cagalli said, her voice husky and mixed with her moans. It makes him horny, especially because he's saving his feelings two years for this moment. Kira pulled his fingers and enter her again, five minutes later, they're already cum inside Cagalli's womb.
"God, that's magnificent!" Kira collapsed above her. They're cover in sweat. He likes the sensation when their sweat mix together, full this room with their sticky sweet scent, feeling his skin glued to her. Then suddenly, he saw a clinging on her right finger. "What is this?" he lifted her right fingers to his face. He still panted and exhausted, but he don't care. A very beautiful diamond ring with rose craved rounded in Cagalli's sweet finger. "Damn, Athrun already make his proposal?" Kira grinned, but Cagalli know that he's tense right now.
When he holds you close
When he pulls you near
When he says the words
You've been needing to hear
I'll wish I was him, that his words were mine
To say to you till the end of time.
"Silly, it's from mom. Her wedding ring," Cagalli kissed the ring.
"What?" Kira asked in disbelief.
"Momma said she doesn't need this anymore, and she wanted me to have this. Or, she said she's going to give it to you, and you can propose the woman you love with this. So in the end, it will end up in my finger too," Cagalli explained with half joking.
"Haha.." Kira laughed in relief.
"Well, don't you think it's time for us to get marry?" asked Cagalli carefully.
Kira locked his amethyst eyes on her amber eyes. "Do you want to get marry?" he asked softly, don't mean any bad for her.
"I think we have too, so our cover will be perfect," said Cagalli. "Not now though," she added by laughing.
Kira smiled. "You know that I can leave her anytime, if only you want me to and we'll take all the risk."
"We discuss about this a hundred times. We can't do it. It'll be too risky, and I'm afraid. You haven't forgotten the incidents right? When we was first making love, and I thought I was pregnant, and it almost drive me crazy? I'm afraid that our baby will born abnormal, we have to think about them too" Cagalli sighed and clearly show him her objective.
Well, we can adopt our own child, said Kira in his heart, but he doesn't discuss it though, he already know Cagalli answers, then none are going to continue are bloodlines, we have to think our parents. "You know that I'll always protect you. I wont let anything hurt you," like usual, like when they discuss about this, like when it's arrived in this point, Kira will reassure her and pleaded for chances while his heart ache, bitter, and full of hope. But again, Cagalli denied it, and when he saw the anger in her eyes, he decided to pull back, no matter how hard his heart pounded in pain . "It's just a suggestion. I understand if you don't want to do it," he leaned and kissed her forehead. She always been stubborn. It's better like this than loosing her forever.
If you told me to cry for you I could
If you told me to die for you I would
Take a look at my face
There's no price I won't pay
To say these words to you.
Then Cagalli will fell guilty once again because her selfishness, then she'll say the only thing she can say to apologizes. "I love you brother," which meant a whole different things from any sibling dictionary.
After that, Cagalli will stay about one month during the negotiation. She'll land on Djibril aircraft only by herself. Djibril and his man only know that she's drop off by some spaceship, which is he doesn't know that it's a gundam. When Kira and the other coordinator had finally allowed riding the gundam, he took a picture with Cagalli, and have her sat on his lap, give her the first ride. Every crew has already known that they're twins, and that their parents had divorced, so they got the sympathy vote to running around the archangel by holding each other hands freely, or caress each other hair at the public, embraced and friendly hugged, and everything that a normal sibling can do to their brother or sister. But of course, they also good in acting, and didn't show them a lot that they're lovers, they don't want to get caught before Cagalli's mission over. They shared their true feelings at every night, in Kira's cabin.
"I'm on stealth mode," Kira informed the archangel station from his michrophone. He was carefully spies Djibril aircraft from above. It's already half month, but Cagalli told him that the negotiation seems not working, it's even getting weird. He asked her often to just stop, but she wont give in.
"Freedom status are stabile, no need to worry a thing," he can heard Murrue response.
"Copy that. I'm going to focus now, I will inform you again if something happen," Kira said by switching off some buttons above him.
"Is there something wrong?" Murrue asked.
"My twin instinct tells me that something is going to happen," Kira answered.
"Do you need back up?" suddenly, he can hear Auel's voice.
"Cadet Neider! How many times I told you not to hijack the connection!" Murrue scolded him.
"Ups, sorry captain! I kinda forgot you here though," he laughed nervously. "But Kira is my buddy, so I got to keep an eye on him everytime," he added before Murrue scold him again. Kira could only shake his head and grin.
"Focus in your own patrol, cadet," Murrue still strong headed. Then they started to argue. As usual, Kira doesn't really care, he focused in something else, some airship just launched from Djibril hanger. It's getting lot, and surprisingly head slowly towards him. He decides to move a bit. But then..
"I can't move," he doesn't even realize that he said that. Murrue and Auel stop fighting.
"Impossible, it's still stabile on the chart," said Murrue.
"I'm not joking, I can't move an inch! I think I got caught, some airship is approaching me!" Kira did his best to forces his gundam freedom to move, but it's useless.
"Don't do something, just hold your fire, they're probably aware but will reconfirm you first to Miss Atha, she'll explain, and you'll be fine. We just have to rethink tomorrow strategy to protect her," Murrue tried to calm him down.
"Something tells me that she's in trouble," said Kira in low voice. There are so many airship surrounded him. "They already point their guns on me," he added.
"Captain!" he could hear Auel screams.
"You have your orders, back up Freedom, Abyss!" Murrue has finally gave her order.
"Yes mam! I'm coming Kira!" Kira could hear Auel's gundam machine buzzing from the speaker, he must've been coming for him with full speed.
In the mean time, Cagalli was standing alone across the locking door. Djibril is walking towards her, a white gown rested on his hands.
"Wear this, or else!" he threaten.
"I'm not going to marry you asshole! What is your purpose from the beginning!" Cagalli yelled him in anger. Since she landed there this morning, he already told her about marry out of from nowhere, and now he suddenly have a wedding dress and approached her with those perverted smiled on his face.
"You'll know sooner than you thought," he smirked.
"I should just have listened to my brother, I was so fool to trust that you will change to a good man!" Cagalli doesn't seem scare at all. Well, she's tense and worried, but not scare. Her father has educated her for being like this.
"Mr. Atha did a really good job to replace him by his smart own daughter. I admit, you're so stunning, intelligent and all.. But apparently, you have to surrender to me," Djibril stoped one meter infront of her. "You see, I know that the brothers of yours are flying on the airship above us, and for your information, I already surrounded him, and with a very simple order, I can kill him," he said again when Cagalli's almost open her mouth. Cagalli eyes widen, and he catches the glimpse. "Now, dear, please make yourself beautiful," he lifted the wedding gown at her.
"Report your status!" Murrue's order.
"They don't do anything, but.." Kira's words have stopped when he saw a bigger airship is preparing to launch from Djibril open hanger. Then he could see Cagalli's drag by force to the airship. She looked above, straight at him, and calling his name, begging for help. "They took my sister away! ARGHHH! come on freedom!" he yelled in anger. Cagalli already forced to hop in the airship.
Then suddenly, "Wohooo!" Abyss has finally arrived and crushed the airships which surrounded freedom. Freedom could move again!
"Oh, SHITT!" Djibril cursed him from the airship window. "Hurry, go!" he ordered the pilot.
"Thanks Auel!" Kira thanked his comrade and quickly changed freedom shape from airship to mobile suite. Then he joined with Auel to destroys every airship which attacking them, the amount getting greater. "So it's him who's being messing with us all this days!" he informed both Auel and Murrue.
"This is mother ship, go save Miss Atha with all cost!" he could hear Murrue's voice.
"Go get your sister Kira, I'll go get this flies!" Auel told him to.
"Got it," Kira buzzed out to the airship which already two meters flied from the ground.
Mean while, while Djibril concentrated to freedom which headed towards them quickly, Cagalli already punched some security with her Karate moves in her wedding gown. Then she slid the door open. "See you loser!" and jumped down. "AAAAaaaaaaaa!" she yelled, and everything turned dark when she hit the dock.
"No!" Kira tried to reach her as soon as possible, but some airship surrounded him again and shot him. This time, they succeeded. "I've been hit!" he informed the mother ship.
"Only small damage, you still can go on!" the mother ship told him. Kira worriedly glanced to Cagalli while focusing to the fight ahead of him. He have to pass all the airship to get through, but he know that cagalli fainted and need rescue as soon as possible, she's been laying on the middle of the battlefield, with metal's falling around her, the ocean shook beneath her, and bomb exploded on the sky, and now Djibril used her as a target from the airship above her, he got weapons. TMP, Kira eyes widen.
"CAGALLI!" he screamed as he crushing the others.
"Huh?" Cagalli opened her eyes. Bang, bang, bang! "Ahh!" she yelled in pain when bullets scratched (luckily) her thigh, calf, her upper arms, and her cheek. She still dizzy, but she forced herself to moved, she ran while the bullets chased her, and covered herself on some pipes.
"Duck! Down!" Kira yelled to the air around his cockpit, but Cagalli seems like she can hear him, she's fall to her knee and covering her ears with her arms. Kira sighed in relief. Kira, help me! I'm afraid.. and he feels like he could hear her thoughts. "Hang on smurf, I'm coming for you!" he mumbled by launching some missiles to his enemies. Now he's path are clear, he saw that Djibril are also jumped down and after cagalli, but he wont let that happen. Until suddenly…
"I've been hit! Repeat, I've been hit! My right arms burning in fire, and there's a spark damage on my left foot! I'm going down!" he heard Auel's voice from the speaker. Kira turned his gundam head back, and saw that Abyss falling down, chased by the enemies bullets.
"Freedom, make up your move!" the mother ship ordered him. He looked back to Cagalli, Djibril almost had her. But Auel's Neider, his friend, his comrade, the one who always been worrying about him and watched his back, which one he should pick?
"Hang on there a bit more smurf!" he finally flew with lightning speed at Abyss enemies, and crushed them all down, then finally catches Abyss before he hit the ocean, but still, some bullets are chasing them, and once again, he trapped in the middle of the fight while guarding Abyss. "I need back up!" he informed the archangel.
"Get off me!" Cagalli tried her best to fight Djibril. But she failed due to her wounds and the gown. Djibril finally had her; he held her neck with one hand, pull her close to him, while the other hand pointed his TMP on her forehead.
"Cagalli!" Kira called her while trying his best to fighting the enemies with one hand.
"Hang on Freedom, back up are heading towards you, and— what the? Freedom, alert! Another unknown mobile suit is approaching you!" Archangel informed him.
"How is that possible?" Kira lookeed back, and another gundam with red color is sliding with full speed at him.
"Archangel mother ship, this is Justice Gundam by Athrun Zala, asking permission to help the mission," a very familiar voice speaks from the speaker.
"Justice, you got your permission. Back up freedom and abyss until reinforcement come," mother ship answered.
"Roger that," and suddenly, Kira feels explosion around him, somehow he know that Justice defeat all the enemies in the flash of light.
"Athrun, what are you doing here!" he asked confusedly.
"Hey dude, doesn't it nice to have your sister fiancé come to back up us?" Auel teased him.
"I'm watching the television and know about this sudden war. I come here to help both you and your strong headed sister," Athrun answered.
"I mean what the hell is happening with you in a gundam!" kira reconstructed his question.
"Oh," Athrun mumbled in understandment. "Just some father connection and childhood dream," he laughed. "Watch your back Kira, they come again. I'll go save cagalli," Athrun warned him.
"Hey!" Kira yelled at him, but he already slid down and landed on Djibril's airship. "Dammit! Abyss, can you fly again?" for the third time, Kira been surrounded again. "Where is the fucking reinforcement!"
"Let him go Djibril," Athrun went off from Justice, and now walks towards Djibril and Cagalli. From the sound of explosives in the sky, he knew that the reinforcement has arrived, no need to worry about Kira.
"Athrun! AW!" Cagalli shrieks when Djibril tighten his grip on her neck.
"So you finally come," Djibril whispered.
"You're aftering him..?" Cagalli asked in disbelief.
"Yes, since the beginning," she could fell his nodded on her hair.
"Let her go, she's got nothing to do with this!" Athrun lured one of his hands.
"Oh, no boy, I want you to look at her suffer. How do you feel to look at her bleeding, that she's cover in blood, how she's tremble.. fascinating huh? Quite charming.. I know you want to lick that pain away from her body," Djibril mocked him, and licked Cagalli's face with forced. Slowly but harsh, caused Athrun's blood boiling by only looking his fiancé cried in disgust.
"You'll be so dead," he growled. "If you lay a finger on her once again-"
"But I am, lay my fingers on her," Djibril laughed and played his hands through cagalli's hair.
Athrun knuckles bleed because he grip them to tight in anger. He clenched his teeth. Then suddenly, he smirked. "I look back if I were you," he said.
"What?" Djibril eyes questioned. Then suddenly, a sharp pain has bursting to his left chest, through his heart. Cagalli's eyes widen, a dagger just went through Djibril's heart, and through beneath her armpit, without causing a single scratch on it. Kira was standing behind them, stabbing his dagger angrily.
"I tell you one secret," he whispered so only Djibril could hear him. "I love her more than Athrun can love her, so I kill anyone who dares to hurt her. She belongs to me and I belongs to her," he continued his sentence as Cagalli's off from Djibrils hands and running towards her fiancé who straightly opened his arms for her. But suddenly, Djibril grinned.
"I tell you one secret too.." he groaned in pain. "I'll kill him no matter what," and with an impossible speed for someone who already stabbed in his heart, he lifted his TMP. And Kira knew, though he aimed for Athrun, his shot will hit Cagalli's too.
"Cagalli!" He warned her. Cagalli's looked back, she can see Djibril aimed for her again, but suddenly everything turns dark and warm, then she knew that Athrun was hugging and protecting her. Bang, bang, bang! Some bullets nested on Athrun's body. At the next moment, she knew that she fall back to the floor with Athrun's body above him.
Kira saw the scene clearly, and he knew that Cagalli's unhurt, that's the matter most. He kneeled and checked Djibril's body, make sure that he really is dead right now. And suddenly, his entire body tremble, he flew backwards, hit some pipes, and he heard some big explosions and he realizes that this ship started to destruct herself.
"Kira, KIRA!" he heard his sister calling out for him. So he stand and looking for her.
"Cagalli!" he finally found her. But both of them are separate by a large fire. He must get them out before this ship fully explodes, but how?
"Kira, ATHRUN!" Cagalli cried by holding Athrun's body at the dock floor. He seems dead too for Kira. He looked around, and found that Athrun's gundam parked near Cagalli's, only a few meters away.
"Drag him to the gundam! And fly with the gundam like I already taught you!" Kira told her.
"WHAT! Are you idiot! You only show me the buttons but not allowing me to touch them!" Cagalli scolded him with tears still flowing.
"Now you can touch them! I know you can Cagalli! Just believe in yourself!" Kira has to screamed to defeat all the crashing and burning sounds around them. Something just explode beneath him, and he bounced back again. He could hear Cagalli's cry out again for him. "Do it quick smurf! Or we'll end down here! Make your way as soon as possible to Archangel once you fly, I meet you there!" he panted, and coughed, and pained, but tried to hid them all. His head is bleeding, and it's bad.
"I'll try. Come to see me kira!" he watched her lift Athrun's body on her shoulder and bring him towards justice. The next explosion happened near her, but he could still feel the winds and heat from his place.
"CAGALLI!" he screamed her name in fear. No sounds, and he's getting froze. What if something happened to her? When he began to move again, he heard some buzzing sounds, and when he looked at the sky, Justice just launched and fly away, leaving this ship. He smiled in relief. But another problem appears, with what is he going to go? He doesn't recognize this place after explosion anymore, he doesn't know in which direction he have to go to reach his gundam.
"KIRA!" but suddenly, freedom was flying towards him out of nowhere, grab him and fly straightfully at the right moment when all the ship explodes. It carried abyss on his back.
"Thanks Auel," said Kira by looking to the pilot window. There, Auel gave him a wide grin and brought them quickly to Archangel.
"Good Lord, you okay!" Cagalli welcomed him at the hanger. She kissed him on lip, and no one looking, no one except Auel from the pilot seat. Kira shot him a glare, and Auel just lifted his shoulder, laughed, and went away to find a mechanic for his abyss.
"How's Athrun?" Kira asked by caressing her hair. He wanted to compliment how beautiful she is in the wedding dress though she covered in blood and ashes, but figure that it wasn't the right time.
"He is in coma! Oh Kira, I feel so worried and guilty! What if he died because he protected me!" she cried again.
"He wouldn't. He's a strong man, so-" Kira tried to comfort her, but his phone ring. It's Lacus, she probably looked at the news too and worried about him. So he picked it up. "Yes? I'm fine and-"
"But we're not.." Lacus voice was sad and weak.
Kira froze. "What do you mean?"
"We broke Kira.." Lacus cried. He can't really handle two girls crying at the same time. One of them is his girlfriend on phone, and the other are his special sister who's now crying on his shoulder.
"What! What did I do wrong? I'm sorry if I hurt you, but really, Lacus this isn't the right time. Dont you see the news?"
"I saw it.."
"So?"
"I realized how much different our lives now.. You never even call me in this pass few months.. What's happening between us Kira? I barely know you from the beginning, but now I really don't know you.."
"I'm sorry.. I just being busy and others.. We'll fix it together, please.." Kira pleaded. He feels guilty for being her reason to cries.
"I can't do this anymore. You don't even said that Cagalli can visit you, why cant I?"
"She came here for her duty! Gosh, I'm sorry I yelled, I just don't know what to do.."
"Athrun even come there to saved her. At the car accident one year ago, you're not saving me.."
"It's on the whole different case.. please Lac-"
"You're not even bother to come, to see me.. Don't you know how much I miss you and want you at my side? You never really be there for me now.. It's so hurt that I can't do this anymore.. Please, Kira.. Let me go.." she cut his words and her sobs getting louder. Kira said nothing. And Cagalli could heard her voice a bit from the phone, she knew that they're fighting.
"Please, give me one last chance.. I promise I'll come to you next week, after things here back to normal.." Kira begged, his left palms are covering his face in frustration.
"Sorry Kira.. Don't see me anymore. You deserve a better girl that can make you really smile all the time," Lacus sighed heavily and turned off her phone.
"Lac-Lacus? Hello? LACUS!" Kira yelled her name. "Damn!" and finally threw his phone to the floor.
"Since when..?" Cagalli asked in a low voice. Kira turned at her. She picked his phone, and he feels sorry for throwing it before, it's the same model like seven years ago, like Cagalli's. "Since when she's that precious for you?" she almost cries again, but for different problems. Not for Athrun's coma, but for his sudden reaction.
"Since.. If I cant be with her, then I cant be with you.. Since you approved her so I can found myself another woman to marry.. That she's my only chance for stay being with you," Kira walked at her, cupped her face, and touched her forehead with his. He closed his eyes and sighed. Cagalli smiled, she doesn't really know what to feel right now. She just knew how much she loves him.
She gave him a deep hug, their head rest in each other crook neck. "Go now Kira.." she whispered. Kira's eyes wide opened. "Go to her place.. and marry her," she added while taking off momma's ring slowly. Then she let her hands off, let kira eyed her in disbelief. "Take this.." she opened her left palms, show him the ring. He gasped.
"But.." and protested.
"Please.." Cagalli eyes full with tears, but she smiled in peace. He knew how much the ring meant to her. So he could feel his tears has finally flows again after years, there's nothing painful than this, than his sister told him to get marry. The woman he loved told him to marry the woman he doesn't loved, she even gave him their both precious ring. "I want to be with you to, always…" Cagalli's voice shaken as she speaks. So he took the ring, and without turning back, he's off again with freedom. "I love you.. Kira Yamato.." Cagalli mumbled while tighten her grip on Kira's cell phone.
"Where the hell is he going? Captain will be super mad at him.." Auel's scratching his hair. Then he saw Cagalli stand alone, watching the sky from where freedom departed. She cried in silence. And he knows that she's really in pain. So he walked towards her and decided to accompany her for a while, before she found something sharp and cut her own life.

"What is the matter with her? I never saw her so sad before," the servants are whispering quietly at the kitchen, while watching the Clyne princess sitting by herself at the garden. Her eyes swollen because she cried all day. Then suddenly, a very harsh winds and a buzzes sounds heard around them. Lacus couldn't even yelled in shock because her sadness. She's just closed her eyes and covered herself with her tiny arms. The buzzes sound stops, but the winds still blowing lightly, and dust flying around her. A giant robot were also stand tall infront of her. She froze and eyed the robot in fear.
"What in the world is that?" she questioned.
"It's a gundam. Its name is freedom. And it's mine to ride," suddenly, a very familiar voice appear from the dust infront of her. A figure walked towards her.
"Kira.." she mentioned his name.
"Miss Lacus! Hey, who are you! Stop or we'll shoot!" the security approached them and point their guns to Kira's who ignored them and continued walking towards Lacus.
"No, wait!" Lacus lifted her hands, tried to stop them. The security cautiously down their weapons, and watched every movements that Kira make.
What's the matter with him? He looks so hurt, so painful.. Is it because the wound on his head? No, it's certainly not.. It's because something else.. Lacus eyed him carefully. "What are you doing here?" her voice shaken and she hate it for that, that she still loves him.
"Lacus Clyne," Kira looked her in the eyes, and all the pain has suddenly disappeared from his expression. Lacus gasped, she's being separated from him in one and half years, but his soft tone which can calm everyone and his warm smiles, it never changes at all. "Will you marry me?" then he kneeled, leaving all those security dumbfounded. He showed Cagalli's ring to her. Lacus covered her mouth with her palms. She just phoned and asked him to break the relationship ten minutes ago, and she knew how far the distant is, she also knew how much those robots meant to him, that he could get fired only by using it for his own purpose. And yet he standing here, proposing her after he has all those war, covered in blood.
"Uhhh.." Lacus tears flows for once again. Her heart pondered, harder and harder, aching in somewhat emotion.
"Please.. I love you.." Kira looked at her eyes with a very pleaded eyes of him. Please, this is the only chances for me to stay with Cagalli, please..
"Y-yes.." Lacus sobbed. "A hundred times yes..!" she tried to stop crying and talk clearly.
Kira smiled, he wearer the ring on Lacus right sweet finger. Then he stood up and hugged her, he relieved when she returned the hug. "Thank you," he whispered as he leaned to kiss her passionately.

"Hi.." said Athrun weakly. He still lay on one of the bed in Archangel ICU.
"Hi.." Cagalli back smiled at him. "I thought I lost you.." she cried again.
"No way.." he laughed weakly, tried his best to reach her face.
"I'm so sorry…" Cagalli held his reached hand and put it on her left cheek.
"Sssshhh.." Athrun tried to comfort her. He still so pale. "Where's Kira? Is he fine?" then he looked around, wondered if her cries were caused by her brother too.
"He's fine," Cagalli smiled. "He just went off.."
"Where..?"
"To Lacus.. He wants to marry her.." Cagalli tried to force a happy smile, but her tears just getting lot and a sobs escapes her lip.
"Hey.. What is it..? Babe..?" Athrun asked her worriedly.
"I still can't let him go.." she cried out. Then she just realized that she make a big mistake by saying that. Athrun will know about everything.
"Of course you can't, you never can.. I can understand a bit about having a twin brother.. And how hard to let him go from us.." but the contrary, Athrun said with a soft tone and caressing her hair.
"Oh Athrun.." Cagalli moaned. She was so relief. "I'm also afraid about one thing. Lacus was very mad of him, she might reject his proposal.." she leaned and layed herself next to Athrun. She's just a baby girl right now, a broken hearted baby girl who really needs to be comfort. Athrun happily cuddled her carefully, so he can still hug her without let her cause the pain on his wound.
"Lacus is not like that, she'll say yes.." he continued caressing her hair.
"How can you tell?" Cagalli lifted her head to him.
"I don't know, probably because I know her for a very long time.." Athrun kissed her forehead. "You think she loves him?" he back asked.
"Very much.." Cagalli answered weakly.
"Then you have nothing to worry about," Athrun touched her nose with the other hand. Cagalli smiled sadly, then she snuggled herself closer to him. Some part of her were relief, in this way Kira could always be with her, but the other part wants to scream, it's suffer.. She hopes that it is her who Kira proposes right now. So she just let herself cried longer in Athrun arms. Not even Kira could comfort her right now.
And I will love you baby always
And I'll be there forever and a day always
I'll be there till the stars don't shine
Till the heavens burst and the words don't rhyme
And I know when I die you'll be on my mind
And I'll love you always.

Fiuh! So that's the end from chapter three, I think this chapter is a bit sad in the end, it's the first in this story. And I'm sorry about the OOC, like when Kira stabbed Djibril and how he voluntarily go to war, and how Cagalli cried a lot in the end, but I think it's very normal in this story, at least Kira do it with good intention and for good purpose, for protecting all he loves and make peace come true (in his way), and Cagalli has a good reason to be. Oh, some lyrics and the title here I borrowed from Bon Jovi song, Always,my favorite, why? Well, you can see my reason on A/N above about Kira is devoted guy and so on, and those lyrics still will appear in some of the next chapter. Well, despite all that, I hope you enjoy this chapter and continue reading the next. I'm sorry if I offend anyone with my plot or if I'm still ruined my grammar T_T. I'll do better next time! R & R please, thank you! ^O^
