I found Lenore after a few minutes and we engaged in a long conversation about the wedding and the baby. Athrun found us a while later and Lenore told him about Tanya wanting to see him. I was a bit upset by his constant departures to go see Tanya, but I trusted him. He wouldn't do anything stupid even if Tanya walked naked in front of him.

Soon the two came over and I was pulled into Athrun's arms and was on his lap as we all sat down on the couches going over the plans. Tanya mouth was stiff as she looked at me with evil eyes, secretly. Her face was like an innocent mouse caught stealing cheese in front of Athrun. Oh how I loath thee.

Soon Mir dragged me to get to my place and Kira and Dearka took Athrun. Lenore talked to Tanya though we all knew she wanted to follow Athrun. Athrun blew a kiss at me before leaving, sizzling Ms. Tanya up.

I went behind the door and I asked Lacus who was beside me, "Isn't Kira going to see me off?"

She looked surprised by the suggestion and said, "We didn't really know who you wanted to walk you down the aisle."

I nodded and said, "Well I'll ask Kira, I mean he is my brother, if he won't do it then who else will?"

She looked touched by my words and nodded.

The doors were opened and I walked down my aisle with no mishaps. We didn't go through a fake ceremony but Athrun and I walked back up the isle. We went over all the other stuff and the schedule before packing up and leaving. I met with Kira privately.

"So you're excited for tomorrow," he said giving me a hug.

I nodded with a smile and said, "Everything's perfect about this wedding; however I do have one complaint."

"Just name it and we'll fix it," he said with a small frown.

"I want you to walk me down the aisle," I said with a shrug, "I know you're not my dad, but it would really mean a lot to me-" and looked up to see Kira looking really full in the heart.

"Wow Cagalli," he said nodding, "Of course I would."

I smiled and said, "Well you get the perk of seeing me in the dress before Athrun."

He laughed and said, "I'd be honoured Cagalli, thank you."

I sniffed a bit and said, "Stop saying sappy things, I'm going to cry."

"Sorry," he said giving me a hug.

Tomorrow was the big day.

Well according to "tradition" the bride could not see the groom until I enter down the aisle. Of course Athrun and I were both outraged at the idea and refused. However, Athrun's mother had a way with words and we both melted and relented. Thus, I was right here in our room pacing away my baby missing his father's presence greatly. I sighed and sat on the bed until I heard a quite tap on the door. Curious, I went to check it and opened it slightly to see a man covered by the shadows of the dark hallway. He slipped inside grabbing my hand and pulling me on the bed.

"I could hear your pacing down the end of the hall," Athrun said placing his feverish kisses over my face.

"What can I say, I'm depended on you now," I said moaning at his touches.

"Good because I couldn't sleep either," he said holding me closely, "How's our baby doing?"

"He's calmed down now," I said my eyes fluttering closed as I quickly fell asleep on his chest.

As soon as the sun came up I was woken up first by the baby. After throwing up thoroughly, so I probably wouldn't need to for the rest of the day, the girls came inside. Athrun had left long before I opened my eyes. His spot of the bed was cold. Our ceremony was at three o'clock in the afternoon. I stretched out and was swept away in sweat pants and tank top over a sweater. We arrived at a little studio where I took a nice long shower, wore the sexiest bra I ever saw in my life, with matching panties and sat on a couch wearing a robe over the a pair of jeans and a tank top

"You look like a queen," Lacus said sitting down, "How are you feeling?"

"How can anyone not feel relaxed when I'm having a pedicure and being pampered like a queen," I said letting out a sigh.

"Well you're going to have a massage next and then your manicure and facial, though you don't need any one of those things," she said, "You want anything to eat?"

I nodded and said, "Baby's starving like a hungry tiger."

She laughed and said, "I can hear that."

She came back with some breakfast which I gobbled down. Stellar came in a while looking like she had just ran a marathon.

"The dresses haven't been through the dry cleaning yet," she said freaking out, "and Cagalli's dress is currently M.I.A."

There went my calm mood.

"What?" I said, "I had it in Lenore's closet did you check there? And how long will they take?"

"I heard Lenore gave it to Shiho who gave it to Mir who was supposed to give it to Luna. But Shiho never got it," she said.

"Then it's probably in the closet still," I said, "I can go get it."

"Yeah right Cagalli," everyone said.

"Sorry," I said sheepishly, "Staying here, got it."

The dress fiasco was fixed soon enough. I was getting my nails done and after getting my hair done it was noon. We moved out grabbing some Chinese take-out. Arriving at the venue I went into the bride's room where I was met with about hoard of delays. I was fretting and Tanya was the bitch of the century yelling at everyone. Everyone was given a job and I was sitting on my chair in only my jeans and shirt still bored out of my mind. I heard violins playing outside and looked to see a person standing playing a beautiful melody at a park with another person playing a flute. I smiled standing to listen too the music. I started humming as I went outside the balcony and looked down to see people coming out of trucks and bring stuff in.

I played with my phone as Tanya brought my dress in.

"Oh thank you," I said taking it from her and hanging it, "I really want to thank you for planning this wedding Tanya, its perfect."

She gave me a fake smile and said, "It's my job."

"Do you know where Luna is?" I asked, "She's supposed to do my make-up soon."

"Oh she's around," she replied sitting down with a cup of coffee.

I nodded sitting, "The music outside sounds nice doesn't it?"

She shrugged and said, "So you excited?"

I nodded and said, "Very much, I can't wait to be officially Mrs. Zala."

"Well Athrun and I have worked very hard on this wedding," she said, "I've gotten to know him very well and I have to say you're a lucky girl."

"I know," I said playing with my ring.

"In all good honesty I am curious to know how he is so in love with you," she said simply.

"Well much better then you," I said.

"Excuse me?" she said.

"You heard me," I said.

"Well excuse you lady, we know who the better woman here is, make that the only woman here," she said.

"Well," I said, "I'm the one getting married to him."

"I could wreck this wedding in two seconds," she said, "If I wanted I could have stolen Athrun away from you like that."

I rolled my eyes and said, "what's with you women, can't you leave Athrun be? Is it so hard to leave him happy?"

"Happy," she said, "He's been overexerting himself for your sorry piece of shit and doesn't say a thing, while you are sitting your ass down letting him do all the work. What kind of lover are you?"

That hurt.

"Just go," I said dying to punch her.

"Oh did I hurt your ego?" she asked, "Honey we know you're nothing compared to him. Once he realizes what a lazy ass he married he'll divorce you in two seconds."

I punched her in the face and stormed out feeling tears fill my eyes.

I went through an exit that was empty and sat outside the door crying. Damn hormones. I let out small sobs. After calming down I stood up to open the door and find it lock. I swore and went to try other doors which were locked. I went through the main entrance and tried to get in but was blocked by two guards. I tried explaining to them who I was but they refused. What the heck eh?

I saw Tanya smirking from inside nursing her bloody nose.

I tried to go in and was removed from the property. You think people who know the face of the person Athrun Zala was getting married to, but no. I sighed and decided to call someone…if I had a phone. I crossed my arms and walked to the park where I heard the music. I saw the two musicians and walked up to them as they were still playing their music.

And I saw one familiar face.

"Ahmed?" I said recognizing one of them. I forgot he played the violin.

"Cagalli," he said, "Cagalli Yula Attha?"

I nodded and said, "What the hell are you doing here?"

He laughed and said, "Just playing music with my wife."

I looked up at the pretty girl and said, "Hi."

"Jane this is Cagalli, a friend of mine."

She greeted me and I said, "You two look great together."

They both laughed and Ahmed said, "Why are you all prepped up?"

"Actually," I said, "I'm getting married to Athrun Zala today."

They both stared at me and said, "What?"

I sighed and said, "It's true, but apparently not a lot of people know about it."

That hurt me too.

"Do you have a phone?" I asked

Ahmed nodded and passed it to me. I thanked him and called up Athrun's number.

"Hello?" he said knowing not a lot of people had his number.

"Athrun," I said, "I'm locked out."

"Locked out?" he said, "I thought you were in your room?"

Apparently Tanya hadn't mentioned my disappearance to anyone.

"Athrun," her shrilly voice came through the other line.

"Get away from her Athrun," I said, "Or I'll punch her stupid face again."

"What they heck is going on?" he asked the both of us.

I looked around to see the two body guard a few meters away looking up at me carrying rope and what looked like a cloth.

"Ahmed help me," I said passing him the phone and getting behind him, "Please those people are going to kill me."

"What the hell?" Ahmed said

"My evil wedding planner wants me out of the picture. Someone call the police," I said.

"Hey buddy I'm sorry to bother you, but that girl's escaped from jail and is mentally ill. We really need you to give her to us," the guy said to Ahmed.

"They are officers," Ahmed said.

"Please Ahmed if you care about me even if it's a little bit let me at least run," I said.

"I'm sorry officers but I can't do that," he said as Jane stood beside him.

"Look mister, give us the girl," the other guys said, "Don't make us hurt you."

They pulled out a gun making us all freeze.

"Let's not make this hard," the guy said, "Just hand her over."

I realized what a mess I brought those two into and stepped into front of them and said, "Let them have me."

"That's a good girl," the officer said.

Ahmed held my arm to stop my advance.

"Yo buddy, give it a rest," the guy said.

"Cagalli just step back," Ahmed said, "Jane walk away."

She listened to him. The cop shot his gun to threaten us and the guy grabbed my arms and hauled mw away leaving me kicking and screaming. The officers grabbed my legs and I was fighting both of them as Ahmed was knocked down. I was crying and refused to get into the car.

They kicked my legs and bent my elbow until they were both knocked to the side by someone. At first I thought it was Ahmed and then I looked up to see a furious Kira and an even more deathly Athrun. He knocked out the guys with non life threatening marks and I was gripping my stomach tightly.

"Oh god darling are you okay?" he asked pulling me out of the car and into his arms.

"I'm fine," I said, "Just a little shaken."

"And the baby?" he asked worried.

"Moving," I said, "Like a jack rabbit."

"I should take you to the hospital," he said, "Kira-"

"I'm fine," I said, "I just really want to kick Tanya's ass."

"Don't worry; she's gone," he said, "the girls took the liberty of removing her."

"How'd you get here so fast?" I asked

"I went to your room to find it empty, shoved Ms. Tanya out of my way and looked out to see you talking to some people. I literally gave Tanya a death threat and went to talk to the guards to see them missing. Those guards know who you were Cagalli. I'm pretty sure that bitch had something to do with this and rushed putting two and two together," he said, "I'm sure they all need to take a visit to the hospital and jail."

I nodded and said, "I need to talk to you."

He nodded and said, "Go ahead."

"Am I useless?" I asked, "Why have I been allowed to do nothing for the wedding, while you've exhausted yourself out?"

"Because you're doing something much harder then anything else Cagalli," he said with a smile, "You're carrying our baby, and I think that is much hard work then planning a wedding. And you're not useless angel. If you weren't in my life, I wouldn't know where I'd be."

I smiled and kissed him.

"Okay I can walk back I need to get ready our wedding's in a few hours," I said.

"I'm sure we can delay the ceremony a bit," he said, "No one is going anywhere."

I smiled as we walked back to the venue and separated our ways.

"Cagalli," Lacus said, "You had us all worried."

"Your hair!" Luna said.

"Let's get ready people, I'm getting married soon," I said.

After fixing my hair and doing my make-up I was changed into my dress and wore simple jewelry. Lenore put a delicate tiara hair band on and I was ready with my brides maids dressed as well. We were on time by some miracle.

Everyone left and Kira came in doing a double take coming inside.

"So how do I look?" I asked feeling the wedding jitters finally take place.

"Athrun will be lucky if he doesn't faint see you," he said, "You look beautiful."

"Aww," I said, "Thank you."

"No problem," he said, "You ready to go marry your man?"

I nodded and held Kira's elbow.
