A few shout outs to Stupid Weirdo: I hope my grammar was better this time. I tried extra hard to find things that i missed in other chapters. I also want to give a super special shout out to Prince-In-Disguise! She drew a picture to go along with this story! It's on her website Wrapped Cabbage under Fanart its called Falling 4 U (theres a link to Wrapped Cabbage in her profile page) and its a great picture of Athrun and Cagalli (in their specified roles in this story). Thank you SO MUCH for drawing it for me :) Also another special thanks to Lorelock for the amazing support. You all should check out our joint story, Lost Memories, published on her page. The second chapter will be coming soon. Ah i also couldn't get line breaks to work again...anyway Ok without further ado, here's Nerds chapter 4. I don't own Gundam or Nerds-to-go.

Nerds-To-Go Chapter 4

The first thing Cagalli did when she woke up was walk over to the phone. She picked the phone up, but then slowly lowered it. She felt foolish for calling when her computer wasn't even broken. She really did want to see Athrun again though and Shiho had reminded her that her last date had been ages ago. After a few moments of mental debating, she finally dialed.

"Hello Nerds-To-Go, how can I help you?" the same female voice said on the telephone.

"Hi, yes, my name is Cagalli Yula Athha and I called yesterday in regards to my computer shutting off," she said. There was the distinct sound of paper shuffling.

"Yes, you were visited by Athrun and Nicol, correct?" the secretary said.

"That's right, they did a wonderful job, but I was wondering if they could come back. I can't get my computer to turn on again," she said crossing her fingers.

"Yes, I can send Athrun over around 1:00, Nicol has called in sick," the woman said.

"Sounds wonderful," Cagalli said and hung up the phone after saying a polite goodbye. She ran upstairs to the shower; she had to look good if she wanted to impress Athrun.

"Good morning, Meyrin. I'm really looking forward to our dinner tonight," Athrun said smiling when he arrived to work that morning. Meyrin blushed.

"Me too," she said happily.

"What's the schedule today?" he asked.

"You've got a 9:30 at the Jenkin's estate, then a 11:15 at the Asuka residence. After lunch you've got to go back to that girl Cagalli's house. She's claims she can't get her computer to turn on," Meyrin described quietly. Athrun blushed slightly at the thought of Cagalli needing his help once more.

"Oh ok, sounds busier than normal," he sighed. He couldn't help but look forward to seeing Cagalli again. He shook his head quickly. What was he thinking? He had a date with Meyrin tonight. Meyrin was pretty and cute, plus he had been the one to invite her on a date, who was he to be thinking about some other girl? "I'll see you later today," he said.

"Oh Athrun, is Nicol ok?" she asked. Nicol had chosen to stay home from work today. He had claimed that he was exhausted and not feeling well. He had been acting sluggish, but Athrun didn't believe that Nicol was actually sick. He had been acting depressed ever since Athrun had asked Meyrin out. Athrun couldn't help but wonder if Nicol had feelings for the girl. But it was very odd, because Nicol had been the one to point out Meyrin's feelings for Athrun. Athrun had planned to ask him about it, but lately whenever he started to bring it up, Nicol would change the subject.

"I think he'll be fine," Athrun said hoping that his words were true.

(Line Break)

"So yeah, I have to go home a little bit before one," Cagalli told Lacus that morning, while there was a lull in customers.

"Geez, Cagalli this is the first guy I've seen you try so hard to get," Lacus said.

"Well, Shiho reminded me that I hadn't been on a date in awhile so I thought it might be nice to try. He seems like a nice enough guy," she said.

"Anyone is better than that creep Yuuna!" Lacus giggled. Cagalli blew her bangs out of her eyes.

"Of course…well anyway, how are things going with my bro?" she asked. Lacus blushed and turned away.

"Oh everything is wonderful," she said quietly. "It's like since we're apart for so long, we come together and everything is so heated and romantic," Lacus said dreamily.

"That's great Lacus. I'm happy for you guys. It seems my idiot brother finally found someone to love him," Cagalli laughed. Lacus punched her arm lightly.

"Your brother's a great guy," Lacus said.

"I'm aware," Cagalli said as she left Lacus to begin serving again.

Cagalli practically ran home when she took her lunch break an hour later than usual. Athrun would probably be there any minute and she still had to fix her hair. Cagalli wasn't a big girly girl, but she couldn't help but want to look nice. The doorbell rang and she waited a few seconds before answering. She didn't want him to think she had been desperately waiting for him.

"Hello!" she said happily.

"Hey long time no see," he said and walked into the house. Cagalli laughed nervously.

"Heh, yeah, well I just can't seem to get it to turn on," she said. "Where's your green-haired buddy?" she asked.

"Sick," he said making his way towards the computer.

"Oh ok. Do you want anything to eat or drink?" she asked. He shook his head.

"No thanks," Athrun said trying his best to avoid eye contact with her. Seeing her again just reassured his attraction to her. He already felt guilty enough. "Well, here goes," he said. He pushed the power button in and the computer sounded, turning on right awy. Athrun turned and looked at her warily. "And you said this wouldn't turn on?" he questioned. Cagalli blushed and shrugged.

"Y…yeah, I tried four times! Honest!" Athrun raised an eyebrow. Suddenly he blushed. Could Cagalli have pretended to have her computer be broken so she could see him again? No, there was no way…but he had been able to turn it on on the first try. He shook the thought from his mind. He had a date with Meyrin tonight, his first date in a very long time. He was not going to ruin this chance because of this costumer he probably wouldn't see for a while after today.

"Well I'd better run a scan to make sure everything is ok," he sighed and began to set up his equipment. Cagalli leaned over his shoulder. She enjoyed watching him work because he was so intense and focused on everything he was doing.

"So how does this work exactly?" she asked.

"Well….OW!" Athrun had begun to turn around, but in the process he hadn't realized Cagalli was standing so close. The result was the two of them bumping foreheads.

"Ow…oh…ow," Cagalli hissed placing her hand on her forehead.

"Oh no! I'm so sorry!" Athrun said jumping out of the chair. "Are you alright?" he asked.

"Yeah, yeah, I'm fine," she said.

"Can I get you some ice?" he said walking towards her kitchen.

"There's packs in the freezer. Are you okay?" she said.

"Yeah I'm fine," he said grabbing an ice pack from the freezer. He approached her and helped her sit down on the couch. "Let me see," he said removing her hand from her forehead. He placed the cold pack on her forehead and she hissed.

"Ouch," she groaned.

"You have a small bump. Are you sure you're okay?' he asked.

"Yeah, it'll go away in a few minutes," she said, suddenly blushing when she realized how close he was to her. He saw her blush and immediately slid over.

"I'm really sorry," he said.

"No no, I'm sorry too, it was my fault as well. Are you sure you're ok?" she inquired.

"Yeah, I don't even have a bump," he replied.

"Ok that's good," she said. He made his way back to the computer.

"Everything is good here too. I guess it was just some strange problem last night," he said, shrugging. Cagalli chuckled awkwardly.

"Yeah…strange," she said. "Well thanks," she said. "Let me get you a check," she said.

"Don't bother, it was a quick visit," he said.

"No but I…" he shook his head.

"Really it's no problem. Beside I gave you a massive bump," he said waving her off.

"Thanks," she said. "You know Athrun, do you have contacts?" she asked.

"What?" he asked. She removed his glasses slowly from his face.

"Just as I thought, you look great without these," she said handing him the specs. He blushed, completely thrown off guard.

"Right, just remember to call when your computer actually needs to be fixed," he said. This time it was Cagalli who was thrown off.

"But it was broken!" she insisted.

"Okay. Well I'll see you around," he said.

"Bye!" she waved and closed the door. She kicked the doormat. "I'm such a dumbass!" she swore out loud.

(Line Break)

That night Athrun was trying to erase Cagalli from his mind as he drove to pick up Meyrin. First of all, he was probably never going to see Cagalli again. Just because she had used her computer to get him to come back and told him he looked good without glasses didn't mean she liked him. Well…there was a good possibility, but he had to forget that. And second of all, this date was going to be great. Meyrin was cute and sweet and nice. He would just have to forget about the blonde. He rang Meyrin's doorbell and handed her the flowers. She was wearing a cute knee-length turquoise skirt and white camisole. She had her hair in pigtails and Athrun couldn't help but smile at how cute she looked.
"You ready?" he asked and she nodded silently.

Meanwhile at the restaurant, Cagalli dramatically described her encounter to Shiho.

"Basically it ended terrible. Talk about an epic failure!" she said sighing.

"Ehh, I'm sorry hun," she said.

"Yeah I know me too. I just wish I could redeem myself. My one shot for a decent guy and I screw up. By the way, have you talked to Yzak today?" Cagalli asked. Shiho shook her head.

"Um no? But you know, it's always good to avoid him on employee of the month day. He knew you'd beat him out Cagalli," Shiho said in regards to Cagalli's recent victory. Cagalli laughed.

"I gotta find him then," she said and ran out back to the kitchen. "Yo Joule! What do you think you're doing?" she asked. Yzak frowned.

"Fine fine fine," he said and stormed outside.

"This is I gotta see," Dearka said and followed Cagalli to spy on him. He approached Shiho at the bar.

"What do you ya need, Joule?" she asked.

"Well I was just wondering…" he began. Shiho raised an eyebrow.

"Yeah? Spit it out," she said.

"If youwanttogoonaDATEWITHME?" he said slurring his words together and gradually speaking louder and louder. Shiho laughed.

"I've been hoping you'd ask!" she smiled. He smirked.

"G…great, we'll figure out the details later." He walked off and flipped off his audience.

"I knew it!" Cagalli cheered. "Oh gotta go, new costumers," she said as she noticed Lacus seating a younger couple. She ran over. "Good evening and welcome to the ZAFT…ATHRUN?!" she yelled.

"Cagalli?!" This was just great. Here he was on a date with some young girl and she had made a total fool of herself in front of him earlier. "So this is where you waitress," he commented. She just nodded, still in shock.

"This is that girl?" Meyrin asked.

"Yeah…Cagalli this is Meyrin…my date and secretary," he said carefully choosing his words. For some reason he didn't want Cagalli to get the wrong idea, but he was certain by the look the on her face she already had.

"Nice to meet you," Meyrin said happily.

"How's your head?" Athrun asked.

"No worse than it was before," she laughed awkwardly. "Well can I get you guys some drinks?" she asked.

"We'll just have water for now," Athrun said. "Thanks!" Cagalli left to get the drinks.

"You look like you just saw something awful?" Shiho said. Cagalli motioned to the table.

'That's the guy!"

"What?!" Shiho asked shocked.

"That's the nerd guy. I see he took my glasses advice," she sighed as she noticed Athrun wasn't wearing the frames. She had never felt so embarrassed and disappointed in her life.

Your Corner

Dear Rose,

You know in your last post you said that no one likes being single, well I've gotta tell you. I've been single for two years and I am perfectly happy. I don't need a guy to please me or make me happy. Just thought you should know that some people are just better off being single.

Alone and loving it

Dear Alone and Loving It,

I'm sure you are very correct, there is that rare species of people who are really happy just being with themselves and their friends. You're are very correct in saying that romance isn't everything…but isn't it nice to have around? Ah well…snaps for you for finding happiness in the single world.

Dear Precious,

I've been single for awhile now and when I'm with guys I always attract these slobs.. How do I find nice guys?'

Looking For Nice

Dear Looking,

You know nice guys are really hard to find…just keep dipping into that ocean and hopefully you'll find a good catch. Just trying to give off an aura of "don't mess with me" hopefully that'll turn off the slobs and bring on guys who will try to get with you. Good luck!

So last post I meant to talk about long-distance relationships, but being single just seemed to fit better. So here we go with long-distance. The first word that comes to mind when people tell me they're in a long-distance relationship is: HARD. It must be difficult to not see someone that you have such strong feelings for. But rumors tell me that when you do see one another, it's always such a great time and always romantic. So my advice to you today is that you shouldn't give up on someone you really care about just because you won't see each other 24/7. Sometimes distance can be a good thing. It can prevent those "nothing fights". You know what I'm talking about, when you fight over who cleaned the dishes last or something stupid like that. It also makes the time you have together more precious. So if you have someone you're missing or if you felt like you shouldn't have broken up with someone, try a long-distance. Who knows it might work for you! Till next time!

Cagalli clicked post and sluggishly made her way to bed. Even posting a new entry hadn't made her feel any better. She could only hope that this girl wasn't all that important to Athrun, because the more she saw him, the more she liked him.

Well that's chapter four. Updates coming soon! Be sure to check out Prince's Drawing AND Lorelock's and I's joint story, Lost Memories. I will repeat what i said, that this is not an AthrunMeyrin story. Much love to my reviewers!! Till next time!
