The following dates had been fun, funny and ever so romantic. Natarle made several comments that she was as giddy as a teenager while dating in high school. She quickly reminded her that maybe she was just a little envious that she was having such a wonderful time, while the only thing keeping her company was paperwork. Kira was truly happy when he was with Murrue, she was everything he could ever want or need. A lady with morals and ethics, equal to her physical beauty and warmth of her emotions. The complete package and he knew that he was falling for her more with each date. Athrun was always a good brother, meaning he was always present to spoil the moment reminded him that they had a mission and that fooling around would not be acceptable to their father. "Athrun why don't you find yourself a girlfriend, a lover or at the very least a love interest? and let me enjoy my time with mine." Athrun laughed so hard that the entire cafeteria believed that he had finally snapped. "Oh, come on brother did you forget? I am already engaged to marry a wonderful lady. Lacus and I were engaged since our childhood. If anything you could be considered a late bloomer." Kira could not argue with that. "Murrue is the one I want to spend the rest of my days with." Athrun was now sure his brother was not falling in love, he already loved her to this extent. Both brothers were surprised by a lady hugging him from behind. "I am happy to hear you say that, my love. But how about we date a couple of months before I accept that marriage proposal? You do have to get a nice paying job, buy the ring and take me to a nice romantic dinner for you to propose."

Kira turned around as soon as he was able,and kissed Murrue on her lips. The kiss was passionate, warm and so very sweet that most of the women in the cafeteria could only think that how much they wished their significant others would do that for them too. Kira whispered in her ear, "I am a mercenary, I have more than enough to buy you that ring, and dinner. If I get a long enough contract I might have enough for our home too. I love you, Murrue. I just want to make you happy and keep you that way for the rest of our days." He stepped back but not without leaving a few tender kisses on her neck. "If you keep doing that mister, you might end up a father before you are my husband." Kira laughed, "The only concerns then would be how many and which would we have first? want a girl or a boy?" Athrun left the couple talking about things that made him blush so much she might faint from all the blood going to his face. "But seriously, you haven't even been in my bed, and we are discussing how many children we will have." Murrue sat down on a chair close to Kira. "I am only waiting for your approval. You know how much I respect you, I would never do something like that without your consent." Murrue knew that, and she knew that the university had been using him to speed up the research and production of the 5 G weapons. But she could not help it, after so many dates, kisses, and intimate moments she wanted him, and she wanted him bad. If they were not in a public place, she would rip his clothes off and have her way with him on the table. Kira was a true gentleman, brave, honorable, handsome, and sweet. She knew other women would find him a catch, and she wanted more than anything like him to spend the remainder of her days with him. But with work and only occasional dating, how was she supposed to stake her claim on him. In her heart she was his and he was hers, but she wanted more.

Natarle was royally pissed. Here she was doing all the paperwork and Murrue just because she outranks her has time to date some hot college guy. Life was sure not fair. When was he going to find herself a special someone. Well all things were not so bad, maybe she could get lucky too and find herself a nice, hot guy in the college library or maybe a nice mobile armor pilot. Those guys spend so much time alone, maybe one will consider her. But as she returned to the paperwork she read a name that was sort of familiar. Kira Zala was not seen by any of the spies with in the plants. Kira, hey wasn't Murrue's boyfriend named Kira? could he be the son of defense chairman Patrick Zala? Oh what was she thinking his name was Kira Yamato, must have gotten them confused. She continued reading the reports. The things this Kira could do were amazing. He had completely pushed up the time schedule for the G weapons by weeks, and his improvement on the software were phenomenal. Maybe she could talk to the admiral and have him hired by the Earth Alliance as a possible mobile suit engineer in the future. But how does a civilian know so much about combat in a mobile suit? She did remember that Murrue mentioned that Kira was a mercenary once, and that the last time the Earth Alliance Forces stiffed him on a contract. Boy that would make him reluctant to work for them, maybe Murrue can offer him another incentive to sign a contract. She was already dating him after all, maybe she could use her supposed charms and seduced the mercenary. A few rather passionate nights she would have him eating out of her hand. But he was currently just a college student, how would Murrue do that if he still had to live in the dorm, and those rooms were shared.

Kira was having a few ideas of his own, mainly involved on planning the next date,and finding the elusive G weapons. Not everyone was having such a great time as he was and it was causing problems with the group. So far Dearka, Athrun and himself had managed to find and maintain a relationship with a nice lady. Dearka was dating a young woman by the name of Mirialia, Athrun was dating someone called Flay, Kira warned him that she was not a good choice. She gave him a vibe that reeked of Blue Cosmos. The topping on the cake was when he found out she was the daughter to a high ranking official in the Earth Alliance. He was very happy to know that Murrue was a perfectly kind, caring and loving person. He did not know how he would deal with the heartbreak should she be another of those Blue Cosmos fanatics. Well back to the main point that was worrying him, the location of the G weapons. Captain La Cruze was not an impatient man by any stretch of the imagination, but he would expect some result. They had not sent them to simply date, fall in love and fool around after all. The place had to be concealed and heavy guarded, or could it be in the university itself? hiding in plain sight as it were?

Kira felt a hand on his shoulder and it gave him a tender rub, "Something troubling you, love? You know you can always confide in me." He turned around and kissed Murrue on her lips, a kiss she was very much willing to return. "I know, but what worries me is how am I going to gain steady employment. Let's face it I would like to take you to eat an actual dinner and not just some fast food place. A gift would be the next thing." Murrue looked at him blushing, "While I appreciate that you want to take me to a nice restaurant, and buy me some flowers or candy. That is not necessary, I enjoy simply being with you. Now if you could get some of those classmates of yours to stop hitting on you, that I would appreciate." Murrue looked at Kira while pointed at a group of admirers. "Hey, there is no need to do that. I am a one woman man and you are that woman. If you think I started cheating on you do me a favor? Check for a severe head injury." Murrue was laughing pretty hard at that comment.

In the time that she had been dating Kira, she found that she actually was eager to spend time with him. She enjoyed every moment they had together, and if his kisses felt so good to her, she wondered if I person could be addicted to being kissed by someone. Her work was progressing rather nicely, Kira had unintentionally helped in the research of the G weapons and the new battleship. His insight as to how the mobile suit reacted to actual combat was a treasure trove to the researchers. Some even made the comment that he must have been through some heavy combat, or some elite training. In one of their dates she decided to challenge him in a Virtual Reality game. It was a pretty popular game that was made after the exploits of Mu La Flaga. The player piloted his Zero through a long series of missions. No one had ever finished the game on a single session and most had to pay extra money for continues. The manager was so sure nobody would beat the game that he made a poster that said. If you beat the VR Hawk game the store would give the winner that days profits. The arcade was very popular so that would not be a small amount. "Say Kira, why not make the owner of this place regret making that bet?" Murrue had just finished a close combat simulated match against him and lost in an spectacular fashion.

"Sure, how hard can it be. It's just a mobile armor after all." The manager heard him talk and he got hold of the microphone. "Oh someone thinks that they can beat the unbeatable game. Care to make it a double or nothing wager?" Kira did not replay to the man as he was sure doing that for the chance to get some free publicity. He got on the controls and saw that each one did. This was going to be the day that the owner of that arcade would lose some serious cash, all due to the ego of his shop manager. Kira was having a pretty easy time, as he went through each level. Murrue noted that he was doing exceptionally well, and that he did have some heavy training and combat experience. An hour later he finished the game, with the entire arcade looking at him speechless. The owner had to show up to give him the daily profits, but then he mentioned that his store manager made it a double or nothing bet. The owner was silently cursing his idiot brother for making such a bet, but he was honor bound to pay it. He simply gave him the amount in the form of a check which he gave to Murrue. "This should cover for all those missing gifts, and roses I could not give you before." Murrue kissed him passionately in front of everyone. "No need my love, I only need you to be happy. How about we save this for our wedding?" Kira put his hand around her waist and pulled her into a warm embrace. "Sound like a plan to me."
