Hello

:)

Seee a really early update yay :D

Lol thank you all for reviewing the last chapter :) it was lovely reading the comments

And sooo here comes chapter 6 i hope you guys like it :D

I woke up on Monday morning to the sound of my cell phone.

"Hell Murrue, it's way too early to call me," I groaned into the phone.

"Well I looked through your stuff Cagalli, and its pure genius," she said

"Thanks," I said, "But couldn't you tell me after I woke up. This is torture."

"And most people would be thanking me with happiness," she replied, "Well come to my office after work and we'll talk practice okay."

"Sureeee," I slurred out

"Well I leave you to go back to sleep," she said

"Uh huh," I said hanging up and fell back to sleep instantly.

My cell woke me up again and I said into it angrily, "Unless this is totally important, I give you five seconds to say your speech!"

"You're going to be late for work," Shiho said simply

"Oh shit," I said hanging up and rushing out of bed and jumped into the shower quickly. I ended up late for work anyways.

"Bad day," I said banging my head on a wall after messing up orders.

"Aww its okay," Megan said, "It was only…five orders."

"I'll be lucky if the witch doesn't fire me," I mumbled and then turned around with a sigh, "Why is my head not working today?"

"Yeah it's strange even for you," she said.

I rubbed my temple and said, "If I mess up the next one, I'm going to head home."

Megan touched my forehead and said, "See that's what's wrong you have fever."

"I do?" I said incredulously, "How did I get that?"

She shrugged and said, "Maybe you should take the day off?"

"I've already survived half the day, it won't kill me to do the rest," I said.

I managed to finish my shift without creating any other mishaps. I trudged to my car feeling weak and ready to just go home and sleep, but I realized that I had to meet Murrue. I sighed and drove to the studio; luckily I didn't crash the car into anything. I was starting to feel my fever affect me. I took the private elevator up and was directed straight to the top floor without anything major. I hated going on an elevator alone. I stepped out and quickly went to her office and saw her sitting with a cup of coffee in her hands, reading some papers.

"Hey," I said sitting on my favourite chair.

"Hello to you as well," she said giving me a look, "You look a bit off."

"I'm fine," I said, "Just a bit tired."

"Well I was going to ask you if there was a chance you could change your shifts?" she asked, "From work."

I looked at her and said, "If you can convince my boss sure, I'd be fired if I suggested something like that to her."

She nodded and said, "Well you can meet the dancers' tomorrows, I've sent them copies of the tape and you can go over the steps with them tomorrow. Next week, I'll take you for the set so you can choreograph the steps on the actual stage."

"And what about the main stars? When do I teach them?" I asked, "Or if you want I can record something for them."

"Oh don't worry about that if you can teach Athrun, he'll teach it to Sarah," she said

I instantly regretted not coming up with a tape for him.

"Umm I can record something for him. You did tell me he was a good dancer. I'm sure he can figure it out himself," I said quickly.

"Are you afraid of him or something Cagalli?" Murrue asked with a smile.

"No," I said, "That would be absurd."

"Well he's free on Saturday," She said.

"I'm busy on Saturdays," I said

"Friday?" she asked again.

I bit my lip and said, "How long?"

"I'm sure if you could take the day off, that that would be enough. If not I'm afraid it might take a two days," she said.

"Umm where exactly am I teaching him?" I asked

"You're room," she said, "213."

"Oh," I said, "Great."

And thus the matter was sealed. I agreed for him to come on Sunday as well just to make sure he got his part alright. I was hoping this week would pass by extra slow. Athrun made me feel…just weird. I let out a sigh and drove back home. Friday came way too soon for my liking. I had suffered a really bad case of a cold and was miserable all week. I passed the contagious stage and was dead on my feet all week long. Shiho being the blessed soul she was made some soup for me everyday, with crackers. I felt quite better by the end of the week, but I still had a mild headache every so often. I grabbed my bag from my locker and rushed out as soon as work was over. Running to my car, I drove over to the studio and up to my room where Athrun was already waiting on the couch reading a book. He was dressed in a muscle shirt and what seemed like track pants. He looked up upon my arrival and said, "You're late."

"Well sorry I don't have all the time in the world," I said heading to the washroom and changed into some shorts and a tank top.

I stubbed my toes on the way to him.

"Crap," I said sitting down my eyes shut furiously and rubbed my red toes, "As if it wasn't a crappy week already."

Athrun was in front of me taking my toe from my clutches with a smile on his face.

"You sure are clumsy," he said

"I know I'm not the most graceful person in the world, thank you very much," I said, "And let go of my toe."

"It's bleeding," he said holding pieces of cloth to it.

"Really now," I said looking at it and winced at the cut, "Ouch."

"Where are the bandages?" he asked.

I pointed to the drawer and he came back quickly with one and put it one my toe.

"Wow, I'd never thought I'd see a day when a rich actor putting a band aid on a mere commoner," I said, "You defy all arrogant laws you have to follow."

He looked at me and said, "I don't believe in living the way society expects me to live."

"Sure, you're saying that now," I said taking my toe away and standing up.

"Do you have something against rich people?" he asked

"Maybe I do, what are you going to do about it?" I asked

He shook his head and said, "For now you do."

"What does that mean?" I asked

"It means that maybe you should start teaching me my steps, so I can leave as fast as I can," he said, "Without being a menace to you, your highness."

"Oh stop mocking me," I said glaring at him pushing him to the middle of the dance area. I turned on the music and he placed his hand on my waist and the other in my hand.

"Right," I said biting my lip as I put my free hand on his shoulder.

I told him what to do and he followed my instruction flawlessly moving to the music and in time. He made a perfect lead. I was lifted into the air a few times and our eyes locked each time, showing him that I trusted him. I didn't know where time had passed and when the music stopped. I quickly stepped away from him and said, "That's pretty much it."

"What about the second song?" he asked gripping my hand still trying to catch his breath, like I was.

"We'll do it on Sunday, its best we practice this and get it perfect," I said.

Athrun brushed a lock from my eyes and put it back and said, "Ready for round two?" I shivered as his hand lightly touched my neck.

My head instantly swarmed with other examples of when that phrase was used. He called out my name grabbing my attention.

"Uh yeah one minute," I said, "I need some water."

I grabbed some change and walked out of the room barefoot to the cafeteria on the floor. Athrun followed behind expressionless. I had never felt so alive with someone before. Athrun made me feel free and it was terrified me. I was lost when I was him, the world was forgotten. This had never happened to me before, and I was so confused. I wished Lacus was with me, she understood me more then I knew myself.

"You've been staring at the machine for two minutes," Athrun said into my ear. I jumped and shuddered at his voice.

I looked at him and got my water and went back drinking a quarter of the bottle away. I let out a breath and placed it out to Athrun, "Want some?"

Athrun shook his head and said, "I'm okay."

I rubbed my temple feeling a small headache and said, "Ready?"

He nodded putting on the music as we went through the routine again. Athrun got most of the steps without me telling him, but I helped him whenever he got stuck. He always seemed to mix up the lifts with a spin. We both laughed after he did that a second time.

"It's alright, I was expecting to tell you the whole thing again," I said, "Murrue was right, you are pretty good."

"I'm as average as they can get," Athrun said smiling.

I laughed and said, "You're so modest."

"So how are my other dancers?" he asked after the song finished and we were both sitting on the ground.

"Well they're all major fans of yours. As good as dancers can be I guess," I said, "You'll be surprised."

"I sometimes hate being an actor," Athrun said lying on the floor.

I looked at him and said, "Why?"

"Well first the publicity," he said, "I don't have much time for my family and friend. If they weren't in the movie business I would have never had time to even see them."

"Well at least you have friends and family," I said.

"And you don't?" he asked

"Not in particular," I said, "If it weren't for Shiho, I would have been a real loner."

"Yzak's girlfriend right?" he asked

"Yeah," I said lying beside him now.

"What happened to you parents?" he asked hesitantly.

"It's not sore subject to me," I told him, "I don't know who they are, and I was an orphan."

"I'm sorry," he said

"Like I said it doesn't matter, I never knew who they were," I said, "I spent 6 years in an orphanage, until my father adopted me."

"And?" he asked knowing something happened after.

"He died of cancer when I was 16," I said getting up quickly, "You want to try to routine again."

He looked up at me and tugged on the hand I had outstretched for him and I fell into his arms. I froze as he wrapped them around my waist and sat up while I was sitting nicely on his lap. I felt my face heat up and I stuttered out, "What are you doing."

"I'm so sorry," he said only, "I didn't mean to bring that up."

"It's okay," I whispered closing my eyes and put my head on his shoulder totally content.

I realized what I was doing a second later and jumped out of his…hug and said, "Now stop trying to avoid practicing."

He grinned and said, "Who's avoiding anything?"

We practiced continuously till midnight when we were both thoroughly worn out. After each taking a shower, separately, we collapsed on the floor. Yes the washroom had two change rooms with showers.

"I'm tired," I said sitting on the couch leaning on Athrun's shoulder.

"My muscles hurt," he replied, "You are a hard teacher."

I smiled and said, "And you are a very obedient student."

My eyes drooped and I said, "Night Rich Actor."

"Night Ms. Red Face," he whispered and I fell asleep on his lap, unconsciously of course.

Light streamed through the window and shined on my face. I let out a quiet moan and snuggled into the oddly warm couch.

"Too early," I mumbled putting my head up and heard the sound of heartbeats. I heard a groan and felt arms wrap around my body tighter and I was closer to the warm cushion. It took me a while that I was on a person!!! I shrieked and fell off the couch with the person since the person locked his arms around me.

"Get off me you rapist!!" I yelled trying to open my eyes.

"You sure aren't a morning person," I heard Athrun's voice and relaxed.

"I usually don't wake up with a random guy on my couch," I hissed a him, "what are you doing here anyways?"

"I was too tired to go to my hotel," he said opening his eyes to look into mine.

"So you napped on the couch with me!" I said staring at him.

"There was no where else to sleep," he said

"Well but!" I tried to retort, but I couldn't come up with a good argument.

I sighed and said, "Can you please release me from your hold?"

"If you insist," he said letting me go and helped me stand up. I stretched like a feline cat and trudged to the washroom to take a quick shower and changed.

I looked at Athrun who was already changed into a polo shirt and some nice jeans. I wore a halter top with jeans and flip flops. I stared at him and said, "So I guess I'll see you on Sunday?"

He nodded and said, "Take care; you kind of had a fever."

"Really?" I said touching my forehead.

"It's gone now," he said, "But I do want to learn my steps tomorrow."

I glared at him and said, "What do you have to do now anyways?"

"Go to my hotel and drive to the set and take a few more shots, actor business," he said smirking.

I rolled my eyes and said, "Well then I guess I can ask you next time."

He looked curious and said, "Why what is it?"

I smiled and said, "Nothing as important as your actor business Mr. Zala, I'll see you tomorrow."

I walked past him with my bag, but he grabbed my hand stopping me.

"Hey what's your problem?" I asked but stopped abruptly at the closeness.

"Can you please tell me?" he asked with a husky voice that made my knees go weak.

I shook myself out of my trance and said, "Next time."

"You promise?" he asked

I nodded, smiling and said, "Promise."

"I'll keep you to your promise then," he said kissing my hand and leaving the room, while I could only stare at him as he left.

Stupid Rich Actor.

"You're hopeless," he said eating like pro with those chop sticks.

"Well I use the American tool…you know a fork," I said dropping my piece of chicken after taking five minutes to pick it up.

"This is hopeless," I muttered defeated.

Athrun popped something into my mouth and said, "Here you go, food for Ms. Red Face."

"Can't we just ask for a fork?" I asked

"These people like their utensils," he said, "I'll just feed you. You're taking way to long."

"It's not my fault," I mumbled opening my mouth as Athrun put in some more food. We both laughed at what we were doing.

"I must look like a child," I said smiling.

"Or maybe a boyfriend feeding his girlfriend," Athrun suggested

ohh a suggestion so bold from Ahtrun :O :O
