I was planning to just stop writing for these two stories because I was sorta lost interest. But suddenly, I felt like continuing and so tada! Another chapter and I would like to thank you everyone who has been reading my story. PENNAME CHANGED FROM ICEDRAGON17 TO XMOONLIGHTSHADOWX
Recap:
Chapter 5
"Fine…two meals."
Cagalli smirked again, "With everyone"
"Fine…." Athrun said sadly. He knows that he will regret this sooner or later but he doesn't know what surprise would be waiting him after school with his time with a certain blonde.
End of Recap
"Mou, Lacus! I'm so bored! Entertain me!" Cagalli complained. It was break time and everyone was outside the school building, taking a rest from hard work. Cagalli and Lacus were sitting under a tree, enjoying the shade, well, Lacus was but the blond girl was completely bored out of her mind.
"Hey Lacus, is that Athrun over there?" Lacus turned her head to where Cagalli was pointing to. It was indeed Athrun but walking beside the midnight blue hair male was a very slutty looking girl. The pair was walking along the campus while Athrun was talking and the girl was giggling like mad.
As Athrun talked more, the girl closed in the space between and linked their arms together. The girl was pressing herself against the male's arm while Athrun just gave his partner a flashy smile.
"Slut…" Cagalli muttered to herself.
When the pair disappeared from view, Cagalli went back to her usual position before she spotted Athrun, laying on the grass, trying to enjoy the breeze.
"Hey Cagalli, want to do something later?" the pink haired girl asked, trying to spark up a conversation.
"Um…depends, I'm busy for a while so it all depends."
"What are you doing? I was just going to ask want to go out for dinner."
"Stupid Athrun wanted to meet me in the swimming pool."
"Swimming pool? For what?"
"He said he wanted to see my abilities or something like that."
"That means he'll finally know."
"It's taking him long enough." Cagalli said with a smirk. "Never knew my crap acting could be so good to fool him."
"Oh, we can still go out for dinner later right?"
"Yeah sure, I'll drag Athrun along so he can pay for the meal." The blond said happily.
"Um…don't know why he's paying but sure?"
"Then it's settled! I'll meet you later after my swimming session."
"Okay, sounds good to me. I'll ask Kira is he wants to come along too."

It was late in the afternoon and an impatient blue haired male was tapping his bare foot on the tiles, waiting for a certain blonde.
"Blondie is late…" Athrun muttered to himself.
While waiting for Cagalli, he was looking at the window of the swimming pool with his back facing towards the entrance of the changing rooms.
Athrun was still thinking about his attraction towards Cagalli. It was a few days ago when Athrun finally confessed to his best friend about his attraction towards the blond.
Still deep in thought, he suddenly heard a BANG from the doors and realized that the person he had been waiting for has FINALLY arrived.
He turned around, "You're…" but he stopped midway through his sentence. Standing in front of him was a blond girl; her hair was just slightly longer than his own and instead of expecting the person in trunks, he saw a person in a bathing suit. Because she was wearing a bathing suit, her feminine features were not much compared to the rest of the girls in school but her curves fitted her just perfectly. As she walked towards him, he observed the girl right in front of his eyes. "late…" as Cagalli approached him.
"Sorry, I was with Lacus." Cagalli noticed Athrun was staring, no gawking at her. "What are you staring at?" she snapped at him.
"Oh, nothing." Quickly looking away, realizing he was staring at her. "You're a..." Athrun was still in a state of shock and realized how stupid he was. I mean, who wouldn't? Knowing that person for a week and you though you know who he is but it turned out to be a she.
"…a what?"
"…a girl…" Athrun finally found the words from his mouth. His face was totally priceless.
"Whatever, took you long enough to notice." With that, Cagalli dived into the pool and resurfaced, waiting for instructions.
"How come you never told me? I thought…"
"How come you never asked?" Cagalli questioned him back.
"I, I thought I knew."
"Never expected to be like this huh? But Kira told me the night when you banged on his room door."
Athrun recalled the night he had confessed to his best friend. (previous chapter)
"He wouldn't dare…"
"Oh he would, he told me EVERYTHING. Actually, he told us everything. You should have seen the group. He said your scared expression was priceless! It looked like you shit your pants or something. We were practically laughing our heads off."
"Everyone knew?" Athrun asked in disbelief. He felt like the stupidest person on this planet.
"Yeah, first glance at me, they knew it right away." Cagalli said as she began to swim towards the ledge.
"But I had classes with you for the whole week! How could I not know?!"
"I don't know, maybe you just didn't notice."
"You played me like a fool…" Athrun said in a sad tone. He felt hurt; they were playing around with him this whole time.
Cagalli realized the sadness in his voice and sighed. Getting up from the pool, he approached the male.
"Look Athrun, I'm sorry. We didn't mean to hurt you."
"Even my best friend was part of this, I can't believe this." A bit of anger was evident in his voice.
"Don't blame Kira. If you want to blame, blame all the things on me. I didn't know it would come out this way…"
"I'm no toy for you to play around with Cagalli."
"I'm sorry. I guess I am at fault. I just wanted to add some fun to this new school."
Cagalli looked down; she didn't want to look at him. She never expected him to be mad like this. She wanted him to laugh and thought it was funny. "I'm…I'm sorry…"
Athrun looked at the blond, he could tell the apology really meant it. With a sigh, he decided he'll confront his best friend later.
"Apology accepted." Cagalli immediately looked up and met his handsome face.
"Really? You're not mad anymore?"
"Still a bit but I can't stay mad forever. We've still got some training to do." Athrun said with a smile.
Relief was shown over her face, knowing that the problem has been solved.
"But seriously Cagalli, you really scared the hell out of me. I really thought I was GAY. It was not funny."
The blond laughed at his comment and jumped into the water. "But it was funny. I swear, I would pay a million bucks just to see your face Kira was talking about."
"Haha…very funny," sarcasm was obvious in his voice. "Anyways, let's get started. You think you can do 15 laps free style?"
"Che, easy. Oh yea, are you busy tonight?"
"No, why?"
"Want to have dinner with Lacus, Kira and I?"
"Sure. Now go! I want to eat."
"You're paying." And Cagalli immediately kicked off from the ledge and easily swam 15 laps.

"Wow, you're actually pretty good in swimming" Athrun commented as Cagalli climbed up the pool. They started to walk towards the change rooms because they were done with the swimming session.
"Told ya."
"I'm counting on you for the competitions."
"Me? Why me? There are other people too."
"Have you seen the list? It's ALL girls!" Athrun said.
"So? I don't get your point." A confused face was on Cagalli.
"My point is; those girls aren't here for swimming. They are joining just to get close to me."
"I thought you wouldn't mind."
"What are you trying to say?" Athrun questioned her.
"I thought a total playboy like you wouldn't mind having millions of girls flock over you."
Athrun stopped dead on his tracks. "How did you…?"
"Oh come on Athrun, everyone in this school knows. We're not blind. You didn't really try to hide your playboy reputation. It has been a week and everyone knows you're making out with different girls around the school corners during break. But I still don't understand girls would still throw themselves at you knowing that you will dump them the next day."
Athrun stared at Cagalli's back as she walked towards the change room. "I'll meet you outside after I'm done, and then we'll go pick up Lacus and Kira for dinner." Cagalli said, turning around to talk to him.
With a loud bang, Cagalli disappeared behind the doors.

Cagalli exited the doors of the swimming pool area and approached the group of three who were talking.
"Hey guys. I guess Athrun phoned you guys to meet up here." Cagalli greeted as she joined the group.
The group consisting Athrun, Kira and Lacus greeted her and together, they walked to a restaurant to eat dinner.
"So how was the swimming session?" Lacus asked the pair that was sitting across from each other. "I'm assuming it was rather… interesting?" Athrun stiffened knowing where Lacus was leading to.
"Took you long enough to notice mate." Athrun's best friend suddenly spoke.
"It wasn't my fault. You guys played me like a fool. I can't believe I was so stupid."
"Sorry man, but you've got to admit, the night you came into my room to talk. It was hilarious."
"Kira, drop it." Athrun obviously didn't want to continue the subject.
Listening and noticing his best friend's change of expression immediately zipped his mouth.
"So Athrun, how's your new girl?" Cagalli said, trying to change the gloomy atmosphere around the four.
"Meh, whatever, the same. Throwing themselves at me, every girls seems the same to me."
"Re-" But Cagalli was cut short by a high pitched voice.
"Athrun!!!!" a pink haired girl skipped to the table.
"Hi Meer." Athrun flashed his smile to his so call new girl. "Come sit," he patted the chair next to him.
Without another thought, Meer sat on the chair Athrun was patting on and scooted her chair right next to Athrun.
"I missed you Athrun!" Meer said while hugging his arm and pushing her big overgrown chest to his arm.
"Meer, it was only 5 hours ago since I last saw you."
"But I REALLY missed you! And why are THEY here?" she pointed her finger to the two girls of the table.
"Hey! Watch where you're pointing." Cagalli said. "We have every right to be here."
Meer glared at the blond while Cagalli glared back.
"Come on Athrun, let's go." Meer finally said, breaking the staring contest. Grabbing the handsome lad's arm, she led him out of the restaurant. "I'll see you guys later." Athrun quickly said.
When the pair finally disappear, it was only the three on the table, still not sure what had just happened. "Slut…" Cagalli muttered to herself.
"Apparently, from what I'm seeing, this girl is the most obsessed over Athrun." Kira stated. He too was disgusted by Meer. Even though Kira also had a reputation of playboy, he still finds it disturbing to be playing around with a Lacus look-a-like.
"Man, Meer is so annoying. During class, I can hear her whispering stuff to Athrun. It is rather disturbing. I'm so glad I can't see them with my own eyes." Cagalli started ranting about the different things she can hear during class. "I swear, if I can still pass this course with all those things they are doing to distract me, I'll pull a party."
Lacus and Kira laughed at the blonde's attitude.
As the three walked out the restaurant after finishing their meal, they talked and laughed, making them seem like they had been friends for years. When the three turned in a corner, Cagalli immediately yelled. "OH MY GOD! MY VIRGIN EYES" quickly covering her eyes. The three saw a couple practically slobbering over each other. The male had the girl cornered to a wall but the pair didn't seem to notice them.
"Ahem." Kira attempted to get the attention of the couple. Still no reaction… "Ahem," the brunette tried again. Still, no reaction.
"ATHRUN!" Kira yelled and this time, they finally got the male's attention.
"Oh hi Kira, hi Lacus and hi Cagalli." Athrun had finally parted from his make out session. His hair was a bit messy but none the less, very sexy. His partner was still dazed out from the little make out session and obviously, her mouth was a bit swollen.
"Is it safe yet?" Cagalli asked, still covering her eyes. Lacus laughed at her childish behavior and told her it was safe.
"Need the room tonight?" Kira asked his friend. "I can stay over at Dearka and Yzak's."
"Sure, thanks mate. I'll see all of you later." With that, he snaked his arm around Meer's waist, guiding her back to the school.
"Is he always like this?" Lacus asked.
"Yeah, pretty much. Last year of high school, I was supposed to share rooms with him but I ended up sleeping in Sai's, our friend, room the whole year."
"Wow, he's really changed since the last time I met him."
"Can we please go back? I'm cold!" Cagalli whined which broke off the conversation between Kira and Lacus. The pair laughed at how childish Cagalli could be and the three headed back to school to get a nice sleep.

A bored looking blonde was waiting for her professor to walk into the class. Behind her, was the "oh so famous" Athrun Zala and her new official girlfriend Meer. Every class, Meer's friends would sit near her before class started to talk to their so called friend. Meer would continuously blab about how she was pretty, showing off her presents from Athrun and most of all, how she is Athrun's girlfriend.
Many girls would stare at Meer's form with envy. It was exactly one week ago when the whole school knew Athrun's and Meer's relationship. Once in a while, the pink haired slut would talk to her friends about how Athrun would make love to her every night.
"Hey Cagalli, what's up?" Cagalli looked up and saw a boy with light blue hair and amazing eyes. "Um...nothing much." She was confused. Who was this guy? She never really bothered learning the names of the students but he looked awfully familiar. He was talking to her like they knew each other or something. "So how's life been?" the mysterious guy asked. "I'm sorry, I don't know you," Cagalli confessed. "Boy Cagalli, I can't believe you forgot about me. I feel so hurt." The guy said jokingly.
"Seriously, I don-" but she was cut off. "What happened to best friends forever?"
"Best friends..." Cagalli stated to herself. "Oh my…" Cagalli looked into the eyes of the person she was talking to.
"That's right Cal, best friends forever."
"…AUEL!!!" Cagalli said happily and launched herself from her seat to wrap her arms around his neck.
"Glad you remember" Auel said returning the hug.
"I haven't seen you for ages! I missed you!"
"Missed me my ass Cal, you forgot about me."
"Hehe…sorry, I didn't forget, I just didn't expect to see you here."
"That's okay, I was just playing around."
As the pair settled down, Cagalli and Auel were catching up on each other's events. So far, when Cagalli was small, Auel was her only true friend. Both laughing and enjoying each other's company, a pair of emerald eyes was staring at a blonde and a light blue haired male.
"Athrun," Meer tried getting his attention.
"Yeah?"
"Were you listening to me? I was asking you if I'm coming to your room tonight again."
"Sure, I'll wait for you in my room tonight babe." Athrun confirmed with her.
"Okay class! Sorry I'm late; I was talking with a teacher. Settle down." The professor walked in.
"I'll see you later Cal."
"Talk to you later." Cagalli replied happily. It was years ago since she last saw him and she was happy that they finally got to meet each other again. As Auel left the seat, the so call molester claimed the seat beside her.
As class continued on, Cagalli felt very, and I mean very uncomfortable. She stole a glance beside her and found a pair of red eyes staring at her. Literally staring. "Excuse me, do you mind?" Cagalli whispered. The guy beside her, also known as Yomi Takashi just smiled back at her. It was actually a really freaky smile. Knowing trying to tell him to stop was helpless, she just tried to concentrate on listening to the teacher.
"Finally! The day's over!" It was night time and Cagalli was hanging around in Lacus's room. "Guess what! I met my childhood friend!" Cagalli said from the bed. Lacus was on the computer while Cagalli was on her bed just lazing around.
"Really? That's great news! I hope I can meet that friend of yours."
"I'm sure you'll love him! He is one awesome guy. Come to think of it, he's quite hot." Cagalli laughed at her own comment.
"Planning to go for him Cagalli?" Lacus said teasingly.
"That's gross. We're like best friends! I'm telling you best friends and only best friends."
"Okay okay, I was only kidding Cagalli."
"But I'm sure you'll like him." Cagalli said.
"Oh yeah, Lacus, can I check my e-mail for a second? Athrun said he'll e-mail me something."
"Probably a love letter." Lacus loves to make fun of Cagalli.
"No, a schedule."
"Schedule for what?"
"For swimming practice." As Cagalli entered her inbox, most of them where just random e-mails of advertisements. "Hm… no e-mail from him yet." As Lacus peaked through her e-mails, she spotted something suspicious. "Hey Cagalli, what's that?" She was pointing to an e-mail that was from "unknown" and the subject was an icon of a wink.
"No clue. Let's see." Cagalli clicked the unknown e-mail and the two read the message. Both of them gasped in horror, especially Cagalli. Fear was evident in her eyes.
"Cagalli…um…I'm sure it's just a joke." Lacus tried to reinsure her, though the shakiness in her voice was clearly audible. "It must have been a joke."
Cagalli just stared at the message, eyes widen and fear was shown.
Love seeing you in nothing but a swimming suit that day. Especially your legs. Flawless, smooth and soft, I can't wait to touch them. ::wink:: I can't wait until the next time you go swimming.
All Cagalli can do is just stare at the message.
Done another chapter. R&R please and thank you :) . I didn't know where to end it. Anyways, I'm sort of having the interest to this story back. Hope you guys like it. I really feel like I am rushing. This chapter too long? Too short? Sorry for the mistakes I did.
