Chapter 16

"Excuse me, miss?" the stranger said.

"Huh? Oh my god! You're Kai right!" Cagalli said.

"Yeah! You're Cagalli right!" Kai said.

"Uh-huh. What are you doing here?" Cagalli asked.

"My parents are big investors for the Zala corporation! What about you?"

"I'm here as Athrun's date just…" Cagalli said looking over.

Kai's eyes followed her gaze. 'That bastard is dancing with another woman when he asked Cagalli out! That's unforgivable!' Kai thought. "Um Cagalli! " Kai said getting her attention.

"Yeah?" Cagalli asked.

"W-would you like to dance?" Kai asked holding his hand out for her to take.

"I have nothing better to do. So why the hell not," Cagalli said taking his hand and smiling.

Kai blushed. 'She's so cute!' he thought.

The music changed from the fox trot to the waltz. "Um… Kai?" Cagalli asked.

"Yup?"

"I don't know how to do the waltz…"

"I'll show you then."

Kai took Cagalli's little hands in his own. "Now you just step back like that. Yeah… That's correct. Now to this direction and step towards me…" Kai directed.

When Cagalli stepped forward Kai came a little closer so she could lay her head on his chest. She stiffened at the sudden contact but then relaxed. 'This is so nice. He's so gentle with me…' Cagalli thought.

(Meanwhile… Back with Athrun and Meer…)

"Athrun…" Meer said seductively. "Why don't we go to your bedroom? We could continue our relationship from where we left off…"

'Eww!' Athrun (and I) thought.

"No thanks. I don't have sex with bitches like you."

"Oh? Then why are you going out with that player girl over there?"

"Yeah right! Cagalli would never play anyone!" Athrun said.

"Then why is she so close with that boy over there?" Meer asked.

"Who? That stranger from before… He looked familiar. Oh my fucking god! It's that damn fucking bastard, Kai!" Athrun yelled.

Athrun let go of Meer and ran over to Cagalli. "Cagalli are you okay?" Athrun asked.

"Yup. I'm perfectly comfortable he-" Cagalli said.

"Yeah, Zala!" Kai said with hate. "We're perfectly fine without, you AND your fiancé, here."

"Who asked you?" Athrun asked angrily.

The two glared at each other…
