"Aye Kira, hide me or else I'll kill you if I have to." Cagalli demanded.
Kira took a step back from his sister, "Sorry, father wants to introduce me to some people. Maybe some other time. Try asking Athrun for help." Kira secretly winked at Athrun who was standing not very far from him.
Athrun took a step closer to Cagalli, "So I overheard that you need some help. Umm, hiding from something or someone."
"I..Well my fiancee is here and I'd prefer not to stay very close to him," Cagalli stuttered.
"Oooh, he's coming. Here." Athrun took one of Cagalli's hands, "Just act natural, I'll do the rest." He winked at her, causing her face to turn pink.
"Heyy Cagalli, my honey!" Athrun had to bite his lower lip to keep from laughing. "Are you Mr. Seiran?" The purple haired freak nodded vigorously.
"Can you give me back my fiancee now?" He tapped his foot impatiently.
"Who are you talking about? Cagalli here is my girlfriend and I don't like it when people try to take her away from me." Cagalli was squirming in Athrun's arms while he covered her mouth.
"I don't believe it!" Yuna screamed.
"Then I guess I'll have to prove it to you." 'This is going exactly as Kira said' He pulled Cagalli into his arms and placed his lips on top of hers. Cagalli turned beet red, "You assho--!" she slipped on the floor and landing on top on Athrun, her chest on his face.
"This is absolutely disgusting! I shall not lose to someone like you! After all, I am Yuna Roma Seiran, age 23, the son of Unato Ema Seiran, the prime minister of Orb!I have way more power that you, you lowly being!" Yuna stared at Athrun and lost in their short, staring contest.
'Haha, he talks like that Fllay girl who was talking Kira.' Athrun laughed to himself.
"Yuna! Come over here!" His father yelled from another room.
Athrun sighed,"Cagalli, are you going to get off of me or not? I mean, I wouldn't mind if you wanted to stay like this all day."
Cagalli went even redder and got off of him then punching him in the arm, "Why did you have to do that?" She noticed him staring at her chest when he didn't say anything, "What the hell are you looking at you pervert!?"
She swept her and attempted to slap him, but he lifted his hand and grabbed her wrist. Athrun wiped his nose and a red liquid was on his hand, "Oh, sorry. I think I got a bloody nose due to the pressure and lack of air and it stained your dress. I'm so very sorry."
Cagalli took out a handkerchief, "Here, I'll just go and wipe it off."
On her way to the stairs... "Ouch!" Cagalli yelled as the door hit her in the face. "Why'd you do that for?"
"Sorry Cagalli, I didn't see you." Lacus bowed down, "What is that stain?? It looks like blood!"
"It is. I was going to wash it off in my room."
"Oh...How about I go and get the stain remover pen for you? I need to put my purse up there too." Cagalli looked at the pink object clutched in Lacus's right hand.
"Sure! I'll be waiting in the bathroom upstairs across from my room."
Where Kira was... "Oh my goodness, please accept my apologies!" Kira tried to wipe off the wine stain on his shirt. Stellar gave him her hankie to wipe it off.
"It's okay, really. Don't worry about it. I'll just go and change into something else." He handed her the light blue cloth and headed upstairs to his room.
(Now remember, Cagalli's room is the third form the stairs when you turn right and Kira's is the fourth.) Kira walked backed to his room and took off his clothes. He was putting on a different pair of pants, when outside, Lacus was wandering around in the hallway.
"So is it the third or the fourth? I can't remember. It's the one with the blue door, but they both have blue doors. Wait, I'm sure it was the fourth! Here goes..." She opened the door and stepped in, looking around to see a topless Kira.
"Do you need something, Ms. Lacus?" Kira chuckled to himself after seeing Lacus's face. She didn't say anything, her eyes were transfixed on his abs."Cagalli's room is next door if you're looking for it."
She blinked for about 10 times, "Oh, I-I'm s-sorry f-for dis-disturbing y-you, Mr. Y-Yamato." She managed to say. She opened the door again.
"Wait," Kira said. Lacus turned around to face him."I told you it's just Kira, Mr. Yamato is my dad. If you want to apologize to him then he's downstairs." He smiled at her and finished buttoning all, but the top button on his long-sleeved shirt.
"I'll talk to you later then, Kira." She said calmly.
"Lacus," She looked at him. "You look very beautiful today, but I'd suggest that you wear a longer dress. I wouldn't mind giving a black eye to those sick perverts that keep staring at your ass." He grinned maliciously.
Lacus blushed harder, "I should go now, Cagalli is waiting for me."
Back to the party downstairs..."I can't believe it Kira. Your predictions were all correct. It's as if you can see the future." Athrun praised.
Kira took a sip from his bottle of beer, "Well you can say that." 'actually, it is true, but you aren't going to find out' "Hey, my dad is up there." His pointed to a middle-aged man with a wireless mike in his hand next in the living room. Then the two girls joined them.
"Hello all, thank-you for coming here. We will now be starting the dancing." He moved out of the way to reveal a DJ. The music changed, 'ughh, ballroom dancing.' Kira, Cagalli and Athrun all thought.
They and Lacus were sitting in the chairs set-up against the wall, "Gee, I wonder where Dearka and Miri are. Yzak and Shiho have dissapeared too!" Lacus looked around.
"Well, I saw Yzak in the garden while I was changing upstairs," Kira answered. Only he noticed Lacus'a face turn slightly pink.
"And Shiho said that she wanted to look at the pond which is also in the garden," Cagalli added.
"That leaves Dearka and Miriallia," Athrun let out a sigh. Just then, he noticed moaning sounds behind him. "Hey guys, listen to that." They all paused and listened.
"Hey, Dearka, is this okay? I mean we are doing it in public" "Shh, Miri. Everyone's dancing, no one is going to notice." "Mhmmm" "Keep going, I like that." The two voices were faint, be they could here all of them.
"Sounds like they're enjoying themselves," Kira stated as he peered into his bottle of Samuel Adams' Utopias. "Ahh, damnit. I've out again!"
"How many have you had, you could get drunk."
"Beer or wine? I stopped after 15 shots of Chteau Margaux. And I lost count after 7 bottles of this stuff." Lacus and Athrun gaped at the amount.
"Haha, you always beat me in those drinking contests. And you can still think clearly?" Cagalli raised her eyebrow. Her brother nodded. "You should stop now or else you might end up in some random person's bed tonight."
"Maybe after another one more. It's pretty addicting and besides, I can handle myself." Just then, Uzumi turned on the microphone.
"Are there any song requests or would any of you like to perform something for us to listen to?" He asked.
Athrun nudged Lacus, "Why don't you go up there and sing?"
"I-uhh..." Lacus hesitated.
"I'll go with you then," Kira offered. He took Lacus by the hand and pulled her to the front, "We'd like to perform the song so if you can take the cover off the piano then we'll manage by ourselves." He grabbed a mike stand and placed it near the piano.
"Do you know how to play Mizu no Akashi?" Lacus asked at she adjusted to stand.
"No, but I'll just play along to your singing." Kira cracked his knuckles and placed his fingers on the keys, not yet pushing them. "I'll start when you start."
Mizu no naka ni yoru ga
Kanashii hodo shizuka ni tatazumu
Midorinasu kishibe
Utsukushii yoake wo
Tada matte iraretara
Kirei na kokoro de
Kurai umi to sora no mukou ni
Arasoi no nai basho ga aruno to
Osiete kureta no wa dare
Dare mo ga tadori tsukenai
Soretomo dareka no kokoro no naka ni
Mizu no nagare wo shizumete
Kureru daichi wo uruosu shirabe
Ima wa doko nimo nakutemo
Kitto jibun de te ni ireruno
Itsumo, itsuka, kitto
Mizu no akashi wo kono te ni
Subete no honoo wo nomikonde nao
Hiroku yasashiku nagareru
Sono shizukesa ni tadoritsuku no
Itsumo, itsuka, kitto
Anata no te wo tori...
The people in the room clapped as the two went back down. "It wasn't so hard was it?" Kira asked.
"No, but how did you play so well?" Lacus asked back.
"I never really learned. I can actually play any instrument. I just let my hands run by themselves, it's pretty easy." He answered modestly. Lacus and Athrun gaped.
"So who wants turkey?" Cagalli asked.
Later, around 6pm... It was only fall, but the sun was already setting and the moon brightly stood out in front of the clouds. Lacus was sitting on the edge of the pond, counting the fish. The bushes around her rustled a bit and unknown to her, someone nearby was watching her as she softly sang Quiet Night.
"Your singing is beautiful, you know. But, I still think that you're always the most beautiful of all, your beauty puts this rose to shame." He pulled out a white rose from behind his back.
Lacus blushed, "Kira..." He appeared next to her and placed the rose in her palm. It was wrapped in pink tissue paper and at full bloom.
"So, I wanted to say, I think I'm falling for you. I'm just warning you so that you can watch out so this doesn't happen." Then, he put his arm around her head and pulled her into a kiss.
"I..Actually d-don't m-mindd." Lacus replied.
"We should go in now, I don't know what will happen if you and I are alone in the dark." Kira couldn't see the person next to him blush, but he knew somehow.
