Chapter 4: Let Me Show You My World

"Its time for me to go back home, goodbye Cagalli," Athrun said as he leapt into a portal as it disappeared.

"No! Athrun! Come back," Cagalli fell to her knees and began to cry into her hands. "Athrun don't leave me here I … I Lo…"

Cagalli woke up in her bed but she didn't wake up on her own, someone was shaking her awake. She opened her eyes to see a pair of emerald green eyes staring into her own.

"Cagalli are you ok?" Athrun asked when he realized she was awake.

"Athrun?" Cagalli questioned still half asleep. Cagalli rubbed her eyes.

"You were screaming my name so I came running, I was worried about you," Athrun explained.

"Oh Athrun!" Cagalli said as she threw her arms around him in a friendly hug "It was horrible I had a dream that you went back to your world." Cagalli said crying on his shoulder. Athrun rubbed her back soothingly.

"It's alright, It's ok, I'm not going anywhere. I promise," Athrun said to try and calm her down and it worked. Cagalli stopped crying and released Athrun from her embrace.

"Thanks," Cagalli said with a smile.

"You're welcome but don't you think you should pack and head over to your new dorm room?" Athrun suggested.

"Oh yeah I forgot all about that, thanks for reminding me," Cagalli said as she jumped up off her bed and headed to her bathroom,

Athrun smiled as she walked away. She was sad when I went away in her dreams, does that mean she likes me? Athrun went into deep thought. This can't be happening I think I might be developing feelings for her, that's impossible I was trained to be emotionless when it comes to love this cant be happening to me. I need to execute this plan soon before I succumb to this emotion. Athrun was still deep in thought when Cagalli returned carrying her luggage in both hands.

"Athrun," Cagalli said. No response. "Athrun?"

Athrun shook out of his thoughts. Right got to be emotionless.

"Yes Cagalli," Athrun said his voice now cold.

Cagalli was spooked by this sudden change in Athrun's behavior. Cagalli searched every corner of his eyes looking for the tenderness that was once there, she found nothing. Cagalli took a step backwards, she was scared Athrun never acted like this before. Athrun could sense her fear and felt horrible. All of Athrun's emotions came flooding back to him.

"Sorry didn't mean to spook you," Athrun said.

"I… I wasn't scared," Cagalli said trying to defend her pride.

"Ok, ok," Athrun smiled at Cagalli.

Cagalli gave a sigh of relief, what ever had happened to Athrun he was back to normal now.

"I'm ready to head to school now, are you ready?" Cagalli asked.

"Almost," Athrun said getting up and heading to his room. Why can't I hide my emotions? Whenever I'm around her they just seem to pop back up I don't know what's happening to me.

Athrun finished packing and headed towards Cagalli, she was talking on the phone to someone.

"Ok Kira, I'll see you soon, bye," Cagalli said hanging up the phone. Cagalli turned around to face Athrun. "Well since you made your appearance known at the dance I decided to enlist you in my school as an exchange student from Britain, so you'll be staying with my cousin Kira," Cagalli said lifting her suitcase and walking out the door. Athrun followed after her

KNOCK KNOCK! "Kira it's me I got your new roommate," Cagalli said knocking on a door in a long hallway. The number in the door said 325.

A brown haired purple-eyed boy answered the door.

"Ah you must be Athrun. Hi, my name is Kira Yamato," Kira said smiling as he stuck out his hand.

"Nice to meet you Kira," Athrun said as he shook Kira's hand.

"Wow Cagalli you sure know how to pick a boyfriend," Kira said to Cagalli.

Cagalli stepped on Kira's foot. "Now Kira be a doll and show Athrun around," Cagalli said as she walked off.

"Lacus it's me Cagalli, can I come in," Cagalli asked.

"Cagalli you're silly this is now your dorm to you don't have to ask to come in I gave you a key for that reason," Lacus said opening the door.

"Sorry just a lot on my mind," Cagalli said as she walked in past Lacus.

Cagalli set down all of her stuff and took a look around the dorm. There was a small living room with a door leading to the kitchen and two rooms one was pink and one was green.

"Let me guess the pink one is yours and I get the green one," Cagalli asked.

"Wow how did you know," Lacus said puzzled.

"A lucky guess," Cagalli said as she picked up her stuff and headed into the green room.

"So Cagalli tell me all about Athrun," Lacus said walking into Cagalli's room.

"You want to know the truth? Athrun isn't my boyfriend he's just a friend. He saw Flay poking fun at me and decided to help me out," Cagalli explained.

"Oh," Lacus looked a bit disappointed "but do you like him?" Lacus asked her cheerfulness back.

"To tell you the truth I couldn't tell you because I don't even know. How do you feel when you're around Kira?" Cagalli asked.

Lacus blushed. "Well uh… hmmmm… I guess that I feel safe like I belong there with him and that everything will work out and have a happy ending," Lacus tried to explain. "Is that how you feel when you're with Athrun?"

"That's exactly how I feel," Cagalli said realizing how she felt about Athrun.

"That's great!" Lacus said jumping up with the biggest smile you ever saw plastered on her face.

"But does that mean I love him or just have a crush on him," Cagalli asked. This was the first time Cagalli has ever felt this way about someone and she was confused. "You think he likes me back, I mean what if this is only one sided?" Cagalli questioned.

"Well I guess we will find out soon enough," Lacus said still as happy as ever.

"What do you mean by that?" Cagalli asked now even more confused.

"The Valentine's Day dance. Lets see if he asks you or not," Lacus laughed.

"But that's two months away and I don't think he knows what Valentine's Day is. I don't think they celebrate it in his dime… I mean country," Cagalli said quickly correcting herself.

---------------------------------------------Scene Change----------------------------------------------

Kira and Athrun walked silently down the hallway of the girl's dorm rooms checking the numbers as they go. Kira came to the dorm number 268 and stopped.

"Is this it?" Athrun asked. Kira nodded as he proceeded to knock on the door.

Knock Knock Knock! Kira took a step back from the door. After a minute or so Cagalli answered.

"Sorry Kira, Lacus isn't here would you like to come in?" Cagalli said motioning to inside the room.

"Actually, someone is here to see you," Kira stepped aside to show a nervous looking Athrun. "I'll leave you two alone." Kira walked away.

After Kira was out of sight Cagalli turned to Athrun, "what's the matter? Would you like to come in?" Cagalli asked.

Athrun nodded and headed inside. Cagalli stepped inside and closed the door.

"So Athrun what's the problem?" Cagalli asked sitting on her bed. She patted the bed for him to sit beside her.

"I was just thinking," Athrun said as he sat beside her. "Since you have been so kind and you have showed me your world," Athrun looked Cagalli in the eye. "Let me show you my world."

Authors Note: Not that I'm thinking about ending the story any time soon but I've been really depressed lately so I've decided to hold a contest if someone can make me laugh in a review I will make this story a happy ending and they get a big thanks in my next chapter. But if no one can make me laugh either Athrun or Cagalli will die in the end. I know I like being evil.
