THINGS YOU DO FOR LOVE
Hi! I hope you've read the last 2 chapters I made, and hope you liked it somehow. So, I decide to update again with the next chappy. So here goes chapter 3! Ü
CHAPTER 3
Why so forgetful?
The four talked and exchange different stories to each other in the classroom. They are contented in their friendship levels. And also, they are very happy every time they are all together, guess that's one of what real friends can do.
Yet, as I have said, while telling stories, joking, yet really there having fun, the four did not notice the time.
"I hope we'll always stay as happy as this" started Cagalli, while recovering from total laugh-madness
"That's one thing I hope for in the world" agreed Athrun
"Surely we'll be able to maintain this, right?" insisted Kira
"Of course. As long as we're together, things like this is possible" replied Lacus
They all agreed of what everyone said, until...
"Wait a sec- Lacus are you sure you're completely fine?" Cagalli started asking her again
"Speaking of sec-, what time is it?" Kira asked
Athrun, wearing his sports watch, looked at it to know the time...
"Time, umm... it's quarter to ten, why?' he asked
"Whhhaaaat??? You mean, we've been spending our time here those past few hours?" Cagalli asked them
"What do you think? Isn't it quite obvious Cagalli?" Kira replied teasingly
"Very funny, bro, it made me laugh to the tip of my guts" Cagalli answered, sounding like she was insulted and somehow ready to start an argue
But, before any argument starts, Lacus make her move
"Oops! No argue this time. Kira, try not to tease Cagalli will ya? And Cagalli, try to control your temper, okay? If you two would do things like that, you will be used in having any kind of argument, either big or small, everyday of your lives" Lacus insisted
The two listened to Lacus and stop the nearing fight
"I guess we have our own speaker then, ey Kira, Cagalli?" Athrun said
The two nodded at him, looking at Lacus at the same time
"What do you probably mean by that?" Lacus asked, sounding like a child
"Oh, just-"But before Athrun could speak, Kira inserted himself in their talk
"OH, nothing, nothing important. It's just a nonsense, that's all, hehehe" saved Kira
Athrun and Cagalli slightly raised an eyebrow for the two. And then Cagalli started to talk to Athrun
"Yeah, don't mind it Lacus. And Athrun, I thought you two don't want any argument to happen, but this talk, seems it's gonna end in an argument if ever you don't stop it right now" Cagalli, agreed on Kira's way of preventing the argue
"Okay, ok. Now, Kira, why were you asking the time? I never knew you were time conscious" Athrun asked
"Oh, yeah, that. Well, I was just trying to watch the time; coz Lacus has a game at around 2:00 after lunch"
"Oh, yes! I remember. I almost forgot that" Lacus agreed cheerfully
Cagalli and Athrun looked at each other and smiled
"Why are you two smiling?" Kira asked confusingly
"Nothing" the two answered perfectly, at the same exact time
"OH! It's already 10:30. You guys wanna go watch the games?" Athrun said, as he reminded the time
"Game? What game?" Cagalli replied
"I remember I read something in the bulletin this morning that there will be a big game in..."
"In what???"
Then Kira and Athrun looked at each other, both looking quite panicked and they both said...
"SOC- SOCCER!!!!" Kira and Athrun slightly shouted
"WHHAAAT???" Lacus and Cagalli replied with a shock. Their eyes slightly turned big and the four of them somehow became silent and quite quiet.
"Wah, what do we do now?!" Kira asked while panicking
"Kira! There's no time for you and Athrun to waste your times thinking!" Cagalli shouted
"But, but what if we're late! What are we going to do???" the blue-haired guy raised a tone
"What are we waiting for, come on!!" Kira insisted. He pulled Lacus while Athrun ran pulling Cagalli's hand.
"Heeyy!! Are we included??!!!" Lacus squealed
"Yeah!! We're not gonna play like you guys are!!! ATHRUN!!!" Cagalli insisted
"Ahh, err, BUT WE NEED YOU GUYS THERE!!!!" Athrun responded
"Why???" the blonde girl kept insisting while Lacus just ran with Kira leaving Cagalli and Athrun behind
"Err, coz WE NEED YOU AND LACUS...... I need you" his voice was lowered a bit and he and Cagalli slowly stopped running
Cagalli slightly coughed a bit
"I need you... Cagalli, I will never be able to play perfectly if you're not there..."
"Athrun......"
"If I will not see your face..."
For the first time, Cagalli heard Athrun sounding so soft and calmed when something big, like a big game is going.
'He sounds so sincere. What is this I'm feeling? What is this?'
"Athrun....." She held Athrun's hand and started to run again
"Cagalli?"
"Will I let myself not to watch every game you play? Hn... that... will never be possible" Cagalli told Athrun with a smile
"Cagalli..."
And they arrived at the locker room, seeing Kira already dressed and Lacus putting her hanky on Kira's upper right arm. The two looked at Athrun and Cagalli as they arrived at the room. There was no one else in the room except the four of them, again.
"Kira! Good, you're already dressed" Cagalli greeted while patting and she headed to Athrun's locker and opened the lock
"Cagalli, how did you know Athrun's lock combination?" Kira asked
"He told me"
"Why?" insisted Lacus
"He just told me"
As she was able to open the locker, she pulled Athrun's soccer uniform and headed towards Athrun
"Here, put these on, and hurry"
Athrun reached for the uniform and put it on. Eventually, he put the clothes on the opposite side which made Kira, Lacus and Cagalli laugh a bit.
"Hehe, people only. But... I can't- take this, shirt off, I can't-"
"Let me help... a, a, a! That's the wrong way! Put your hands up, Athrun! Don't act childish!"
"I'm not!"
"You two are acting childish" Kira said while Lacus in looking for his watch in his locker
"Kira it's already quarter to 11:00! Athrun try to remember the real game schedule" Lacus said, by the moment she knew what time it was
Athrun on the other hand, was able to wear the uniform correctly with the help of Cagalli. And at that time, Cagalli was tying her own shoelaces coz it got untied when they're running
"Uh, wait... I just remember 10:30... but, 11, 11... right! 10:30 was the advanced time schedule, but the players should be in the oval at exactly 11:00 or in advance"
"Good, we can still manage to get in the game" Kira said joyfully
"So, what are we waiting for? Let's go!!" Cagalli and Athrun rushed outside and run up to the oval, but Kira and Lacus were NOW left behind. Kira walked a bit slow than usual and Lacus easily noticed it
"Kira? Is there any problem?" the pink-haired girl asked
"Nothing. Lacus, I just wanna ask, why did you put your hanky on my wound. It would get dirty, or...-" but before he could finish...
"Don't mind it. It's a good thing something's there to stop the bleeding. Why didn't you tell me that you have such wound?? It's a good thing I noticed it earlier"
"I... I just don't want you guys to worry... I don't want YOU to worry"
"Shush! Kira, I can say that's mere foolishness. And don't tell me that I'm acting like Cagalli! Next time, tell me everything, okay?"
"Why?" he asked confusingly
"Why not? And eventually, why are you worried that I'll get worried?" she slightly returned the question
"I just don't want you worrying or something... and just don't ask why, okay?"
"Oh, okay."
"Shall we go?"
"Sure. Watch your wound; it might be hit or something"
