Gomen nasai! bows Without any further adue, here is chapter 2 (part one) XD;; Enjoy:3

Chapter 2-Day 1-Part I: Apprehensions

Athrun finished dressing in the bathroom, ocassionally tripping or stumbling from nerves. Once fully clothed, he cautiously opened the door and walked back into the bedroom where Kira was, trying to hide his blush under his azure bangs.

Kira had been watching TV and turned around to look at his friend. "You look good in that outfit Athrun," he said relentlessly, smiling and turning back to the television. Athrun blushed even more than he already was before. "Uhh, thanks..." He walked over to his suitcase to put away his things to help kill time, the thought of his amethyst-eyed friend never leaving his mind. A few minutes later, a knock on the door was heard and Kira got up to answer it. His shirt happened to hike up his side, Athrun's emerald green eyes being immediately drawn to the older boy's fine midriff. Kira pulled his shirt back down, much to Athrun's disappointment, and opened the door.

"Ready to go?" Cagali asked, with a beaming Lacus behind her.

"Uhh yeah, I'll ask Athrun." Before he could even turn around, the blue-haired teen was right next to him. "Let's go," Athrun said. Cagali and Lacus smiled, and they were on their way to drive through town to look for a place to eat.

It ended up being a very busy night in town; lots of restaraunts they stopped by were full or the wait was too long and the more they looked, the later and busier it got.

"Man, this stinks!" said Cagali who was the one driving. "If this keeps up we're going to starve." Athrun felt his stomach growl, quite loudly as well causing Kira to laugh.

"It looks like Athrun's getting impatient too," the brunette commented.

"Maybe we should just pick something up and go out tomorrow night or something..." suggested the pink-haired girl.

"It looks like we have no choice," Cagali replied. "So what are you guys hungry for then?"

"Anything..." Athrun replied, without hesitation.

She laughed in response and tried to think of something that they would all agree on. "What about fish?"

"Sounds good to me," Kira replied, followed by a smile and nod from Lacus.

"All right, fish it is."

Athrun glanced over at Kira who was sitting beside him, gazing out the car window admiring the sights of the city night life. Athrun's mind had been so centered on eating that he nearly forgot about these odd feelings he'd been experiencing for his childhood friend... Kira felt a pair of emerald eyes on him and turned his head to a blushing Athrun, smiling at him innocently. Athrun immediately jerked his head away in embarassment. It was torture being around Kira like this... Every little thing the brunette did seemed to draw Athrun's attention.

They returned to the hotel with their stomachs filled and just about ready to turn in for the night. Lacus and Cagali had been walking fairly distanced from Athrun and Kira in the hall so the boys wouldn't hear anything about their little plan.

"This is the first night they'll sleep together... This should be very interesting..." Cagali whispered with a smirk.

The pink-haired girl giggled mischieviously. "They're just so cute together! This vacation would be perfect if we can successfully manage to get them together."

"Don't worry. We're going to make this work no matter what..." the blonde replied, narrowing her amber eyes with a haughty grin.

Kira heard the girls giggling behind him and looked at Athrun. "What are they talking about back there?" he asked.

"We're probably better off not knowing..." replied Athrun.

They stopped when they reached the door to their room.

"I guess we're checking in for tonight," said Kira to his sister. "Do we have anything planned for tomorrow we should be informed of?"

Cagali crossed her arms in thought. "Well, we were thinking of hitting the beach. But if you two would like to do something else that's fine too," she said.

"The beach sounds good! I can't even remember the last time I went swimming," the brunette replied.

"Great!" the pink-haired girl exclaimed, clapping her hands together and smiling happily.

"We'll just knock in the morning when we figure out when we want to leave. So don't stay up too late." Cagali said.

"Okay, we'll see you guys in the morning," Athrun said, smiling at them. The group said their goodnights to one another and went into their assigned rooms.

Kira let himself fall backwards onto the large bed with a flop and sighed. "Man, I'm exhausted. Today seemed like a really long day."

"Yeah..." Athrun replied blankly. Was Kira really that unaware of the situation? Tonight they would have to sleep. In a bed. With each other. He turned his head to look at a very spent Kira, sprawled across the bed in a fashion that made Athrun feel very uncomfortable... His silky chocolate-brown hair fell messily across his amethyst eyes which were now closed, his shirt hiked very high up his tight stomach, and his pants lingering dangerously low on his slim hips. Athrun could quickly feel his face becoming very hot. Wait, had he just been eyeing Kira? What the hell am I thinking! I was just cheking out my best friend!

He then closed his eyes, taking a deep breath and running a hand through his azure hair. Maybe if I just ignore my feelings everything will be alright. I hope...

Kira opened his eyes again and sat up, stretching. "Mmmm... Is it just me or is it a little hot in here?" he asked.

More than you know... Athrun thought. "Uhh a little bit..." he fibbed.

Just then, Kira sat up on the edge of the bed and started unbuttoning his shirt right in front of his bewildered friend. Athrun blushed even deeper at the sight of Kira stripping from his shirt, and tried to focus on something else besides the brunette's tan chest.

Kira had then taken his shirt completely off, tossing it carelessly to the side. He looked up towards his friend who was fidgeting nervously with his hands and avoiding eye contact. He raised one eyebrow in puzzlement.

"Athrun, are you all right?" he asked obliviously.

The blue-haired teen struggled to keep a serious face, but began to sweat under pressure. "I uhh... I think the fish I ate was bad... I'm feeling a little nausiated..." he lied again.

"Oh..." Kira replied. "Would you like to lay down?"

Oooooooooooooooh crap... His cheeks now became redder than ever. "I-I... Umm..." he stuttered.

"Here," Kira got up from his spot and walked over to his friend who was sweating profusely. He placed his hand on Athrun's back and guided him to the bed, signaling for him to lie down. Athrun did as he was told nonetheless, how would he even be able to protest against such a caring person? Against Kira, nonetheless.

Kira propped up a pillow for the younger teen as Athrun layed back, Kira smiling warmly down at him.

"We wouldn't want you to be sick for the beach tomorrow. That wouldn't be any fun at all," he said. Kira stood beside Athrun and observed the blue haired one for any signs of discomfort. Athrun shifted uncomfortably under Kira's gaze.

"Are you comfortable enough? Here, let's change you into something else," the brunette said as he reached for Athrun's shirt and tried to unbutton it. Athrun immediately sat up and grabbed Kira by the wrist. Kira looked at him with confusion.

"I can... get that myself..." he said.

"Oh, okay... I'll get you a glass of water then," Kira responded.

Athrun watched Kira in shock. He nearly had forgotten about Kira's typical naiive nature. He was almost amazed at how that part of him hadn't changed one bit even now at the age of 18. Getting up from the bed, he walked over to the dresser and picked out some more comfortable light clothing. By the time he had fully changed, Kira had come back holding a glass in his right hand, setting it on the bedside table.

Athrun made himself situated once more and couldn't help but glance up at those alluring amethyst eyes. There was a tranquil gleam in the eyes of the brunette and his smile was reassuring. Athrun felt his cheeks flush again and forced himself to look away. Why was Kira being so nice to him? Of course friends always acted that way towards each other sometimes, but after just seeing each other again for over 5 years Kira seemed a bit too friendly. Not that he had anything to complain of, for he rather much enjoyed the warm and comforting company of his childhood friend.

"Are you ready to go to sleep, Athrun? Because I'm awfully tired..." Kira said suddenly.

"Oh..." Athrun said, snapping out of his daze. "Yeah I guess so. I'm pretty tired myself."

"Okay. Let me just change first real quick." He turned around and stood in front of his dresser, beggining to strip.

Change...? Athrun's green eyes seemed to involuntarily be drawn to Kira's form again, as he watched the older boy unbutton his pants and slide them down his tanned, slender legs, leaving him in nothing but his boxers. Athrun's face immediately became burning hot, among other parts of his body.

"Umm..." Kira began. "You don't mind if I just sleep like this, do you? It's still pretty hot and uncomfortable in here," he said, turning around.

His breath caught in his throat as his eyes widened, searching inside himself to provide an answer. How would he ever be able to rest knowing his best friend was sleeping with him practically in the nude? What if he accidentally touches him somewhere on accident? What if...! While his conscience battled with himself, he became nervous under pressure and spoke out suddenly. "No! I don't mind..."

"All right then," Kira replied, moving to sit on the edge of his side of the bed. Athrun could feel his heart pounding violently against his chest as his best friend sat no more than 2 feet away from him. He had no idea why he suddenly agreed to Kira sleeping with hardly anything on, but it was too late to take it back now. Kira bent forward to turn off the lamp on his side and layed down facing opposite of Athrun, pulling the silky covers over him.

"Good night Athrun..." he spoke quietly.

"Good night Kira..." Athrun replied softly, reaching forward slightly to turn off the lamp.

The blue-haired male shifted slightly, slowly and groggily opening his emerald green eyes to the morning sunlight that greeted him through the curtains. He sighed and tried to rub the sleep from his eyes. A warm presence was detected very close to his back and he felt hot, moist air hitting the back of his neck... He turned his head slightly and found Kira a little too close for his own comfort and yelped. Kira's arm was slung lazily over his own waist, which must have happened on accident during the elder boy's sleep. Athrun couldn't help but notice how peaceful Kira looked in his sleep... How his dark hair caressed his face and those soft lips were just barely parted, as he breathed steadily and softly. The younger boy struggled to supress the strong urge to stroke the silky brown strands of his friend's hair, but he noticed Kira starting to wake up anyways so scooted away a bit so that Kira wouldn't notice him observing.

The brunette's eyes slowly fluttered open and caught the sight of his azure-haired friend sitting beside him. He brushed his dishelved bangs out of his face and sat up.

"Good morning Athrun," he said with a cheerful smile.

Athrun smiled back. "Good morning Kira." He looked down Kira's body again and nearly forgot how exposed he was. He blushed and tried to focus on something else.

"S-so, did you sleep well last night?" he asked.

"Yeah, I was actually really comfortable sleeping like this," he said, laughing a little.

Athrun's blush deepened. "Oh..."

Just then, they heard a knock on the door.

"What? They're up already? What time is it...?" Kira asked.

Athrun turned his head to look at the digital clock. "It's only 8:30..."

"I bet she did this just to irritate me..." Kira said, getting up and walking towards the door.

"Umm Kira..."

Kira opened the door to find, as he expected, Cagali.

"Why did you bother us so early?" Kira asked.

Cagali eyed her brother up and down with an eyebrow cocked. "And may I ask why you are half-naked, brother?" she said, trying hard to supress a laugh.

"Oh crap! Uhhh be right back!" Kira quickly shut the door in his sister's face and ran over to throw a random shirt and pair of shorts on. Athrun coudln't help himself but laugh at his friend's behaviour. He had always been a little clumsy and forgetful as he remembered him from their past, and it seemed that that hadn't changed one bit either.

Kira ran back to the door, stumbling slightly on the way and opened it back up. The blonde on the other side just stood there laughing hysterically. Kira sighed and rolled his eyes.

"Are you quite through?" he said, slightly irritated.

Cagali let herself calm down before she continued. "So, why were you half naked then?" she said with a smirk.

It took Kira a few seconds to register what she really meant and blushed. "It was just hot, that's all..."

"Hahaha right, right."

Kira glared at her.

"Okay, okay, I'm done. So anyways, when do you guys want to go to the beach today? Unless you have other things planned..." She looked over Kira's shoulder at Athrun and grinned.

"Cagali!" Kira shouted, blushing. Athrun happened to overhear their conversation and blushed a matching shade of red to Kira's cheeks.

Cagali started laughing again, slapping her sibling hard on the shoulder.

Lacus came out from behind Cagali, wondering what all the noise was about. "What's going on? What's so funny?" she asked her friend.

"Nothing," Kira said.

The pink-haired girl shrugged. "So what time do you guys want to go to the beach today?" she asked.

Athrun walked up beside Kira and suddenly both girls stared, blushing.

"...What?" both boys said in unison.

"Oh... nothing!" Lacus said, laughing nervously.

"Umm... so what about 11?" Cagali asked.

"That sounds fine," Athrun replied.

"Then 11:00 it is!" said Lacus through a cheery smile.

Cagali narrowed her eyes and grinned. "Some words of advice, Kira, try not to come naked this time."

Lacus's eyes widened in shock. "W-what?"

Kira sighed. "We'll see you guys at 11. Until then, good-bye!" he faked a smile at his cackling sister and shut the door.
