Chapter 8

Shiho was on her bed, reading some magazine. Cagalli was getting ready, Lacus was having her date with Kira, and Miriallia had disappeared somewhere with Dearka. She heard a low knock on her door and stopped reading. She lifted her gaze to see Yzak, standing in her doorway.

"Hi, Yzak." She said. She was getting softer when speaking to him. She had been calling him several times during the holidays and they had spoken for hours at times. She had learned to appreciate him and now she was considering him as a friend. However, she was feeling quite uncomfortable when he was physically close to her. She didn't want to admit that she was maybe feeling more than friendship feelings for him.

"Hey, he said." He entered the room and sat on the bed. "What do you think about going out tonight? We could have fun as well, in our own way."

Shiho blinked a few times. Was he asking her out? And did he just use "we" and "fun" in the same sentence?

"What? Why are you looking at me like that?" ha asked suspicious.

"Ha, nothing! Ok, let's go out!"

⋆⋆⋆

Kira had taken Lacus to his favourite restaurant. It wasn't an expensive one, but he liked the place and wanting Lacus to know it.

"Lacus, would you like to go for a walk in the moonlight after dinner?" Kira was blushing like he had never done before.

Lacus giggled a little. Kira was trying to be romantic, because he knew she liked it.

"Yes, Kira. I have always wanted to do that."

⋆⋆⋆

"Come on Dearka, this way!"

"How long do you plan to make us walk? Aren't we far enough from the lights of the city yet?"

"Stop complaining!"

They walked for a few more minutes before Miriallia stopped.

"Here!"

"At least!"

⋆⋆⋆

Cagalli walked toward her friend's house. She ended up going alone with Athrun and she was feeling rather awkward.

"Here it is"

They had arrived in front of big mansion. Music could be heard from the street, even if there was a giant garden in front of the house. They went through it and followed the flow of students that were heading to the back of the house, which was directly connected to the beach. As soon as they arrived a girl with dark hair approached them.

"Cagalli, is that you?"

"Sonia!"

The girls jumped into each others arms, screaming like girls know how to do. Then Sonia noticed Athrun and glanced at Cagalli.

"Wow, Cag, where did you find this hottie?"

"Sonia!" Cagalli scolded, "This is Athrun my friend."

Without waiting Sonia took both of them to the bar.

"Time to drink!"

⋆⋆⋆

"So, where are going?" asked Yzak.

Shiho think for a moment before asking.

"Do you like ice cream?"

"Yes."

"All right then, come on!" She took him by the arm and leaded him to a little ice cream shop. It was cosy inside. Most people were tourists and students. They seated in a corner and from there spot they could hear the sound of the water.

A guy in his twenties approached same to take their order.

"What could I get you?"

"The double XXL cup, please." Said Shiho without hesitation.

"What's that?" asked Yzak, once the guy left.

"You'll see" Shiho replied with a smile.

5 minutes later, the guy came back with a really huge glass. Inside were different flavour of ice cream, covered with hot chocolate, whipped creamed and all sorts of decoration on top of it.

Yzak's eyes widened.

"You don't think we will be able to eat that?"

"You bet!" she said handing him a spoon, before taking one and plunging it in the dessert. Yzak looked at her, first with disbelief, then with amusement as she really seemed to enjoy it.

"You're incredible" he said laughing.

"I take that for a compliment"

He then began to eat and he had to admit that it was very good. Every bit had a different flavour.

"Humm, this one is so good!" exclaimed Shiho, "Try it!"

She took a spoonful of ice cream and handed it toward Yzak. He realised what she was doing and didn't know how to react at first but he finally opened his mouth allowing her to feed him.

"So?"

"Yeah it's really good!"

When they finished, Shiho took him to another place. It was a 20min walk and neither of them said anything. Yzak didn't know how to act with girls and it was even worse with girls he liked (although it was the first time he actually liked a girl.)

They finally reached their destination. They were on top of a hill and had a great view of the town. Shiho settled a blanket on the ground and laid down on it. Yzak watched her questioning?

"Come on, Yzak."

Yzak lay down next to her. Once he did, his eyes met with the starry sky. The stars seemed so close; it was as if he could catch one just by stretching his arm.

"Wow, it's incredible. I've never seen the sky like that before."

"Yeah, I don't know another place like that in earth. This is where I go when I need to be alone."

Yzak looked at her. She didn't seem sad like she usually did when she called him at nights.

"Tell me, why didn't you want to go to that party with Cagalli?"

"I told you, I don't like parties."

"Yeah, but now I want the real reason."

Shiho sighed. This guy was beginning to know too much about her.

"There are people I don't want to meet."

"Is that for the same reason you decided to go to a foreign High school?"

"Yes"

Yzak then did something he never thought he would be doing one day. He took Shiho's hand in his. Shiho was surprised by the action but she didn't take her hand back. They stayed like that for a long time, neither of them speaking. Then, Yzak's phone rang and he took it from his pocket. He looked at the ID and groaned. He put it back in his pocket.

"Aren't you going to answer?" asked Shiho.

"No"

"Is this Flay again?"

"Yes"

Then Shiho took her hand back and seated.

"Are you really going to marry her one day?"

"Hell no! I hate this girl!"

"You hate all girls" she said a little bit sad.

"No," he said seating as well, "not all girls."

With that he turned Shiho's face toward his and kissed her. She was taken aback at first. She never would have thought Yzak was capable of such actions. She wanted to pull back at first, but then she was feeling so good there with him that she didn't find the will. It had been so long since she felt this good. For the time of the kiss, she forgot everything.

⋆⋆⋆

Dearka had his feet in the water, taking the pose for Miriallia.

"Ok, now play with the water." ordered Miriallia.

Dearka did as he was said and began to play in the water. Soon, he was completely wet and the shirt he was wearing was sticking to his body. Miriallia blushed a little but concentrated on her work. When her film was over, she turned around to change it. She was going through the stuff of her bag, looking for a new film when Dearka lifted her up and ran in the water.

"Dearka, let me down!"

"Why should I be the only one to get wet?"

Miriallia struggled to free from his grasp but couldn't. She already couldn't see the beach and began to panic.

"Let go of me, please." She now sounded terrified.

"As you wish."

He literally threw her in the water, laughing. But for Miriallia, it wasn't the least amusing. She started struggling in the water.

"Oh, come on Milly, do you think I am that stupid to think that you're actually drowning."

"Help me!", Miriallia pleaded.

She disappeared under the water. Dearka decided to wait until she couldn't take it anymore. After maybe 20 seconds, he began to get worried.

"Come on Milly. It's not funny anymore!"

Still nothing.

"Shit"

He plunged into the water, soon finding Miriallia and went back to the fresh air. Miriallia coughed a little before putting her arms around Dearka's neck as if he was a lifebelt. Dearka swam back to the beach and put her down on the sand.

"Are you ok?"

She nodded, still shacking.

"Looks like I am always here to safe you." Dearka joked.

"And thank to whom I almost got drown?"

"You should have told us that you didn't know how to swim."

"You would have make fun of me."

"Allright then," said Dearka, "tomorrow I'll teach you how to swim! Come on," he added, "let's get you something to drink."

Miriallia followed, too tired by her experience to protest.

⋆⋆⋆

Athrun and Cagalli were completely drunk. They were dancing, or should I say, moving together. They were holding on one another to find their balance.

"Athrun," began Cagalli, "you know, I have been thinking a looooot about you. I even dreamt, of you and me, making out in the sea."

"Oh", was Athrun replied, "what a nice dream. I also dreamt that I was making out with you, but I was awake at the time."

"Ho ho," exclaimed Sonia, when she arrived next to the couple, "you better go home and have a good night of sleep you two."

"Yeah, I am tired" said Cagalli, rubbing her eyes like a child.

They went out and walked the long of the beach.

"Where is your house, Cagalli?"

"This way, don't worry, I remember."

The staggered for a moment until Athrun fell, dragging Cagalli with him. Cagalli had felt on top of him. She lifted her head, and looked in Athrun's eyes.

"I want to kiss you." She simply said.

"I want to kiss you too."

"So, if you're both ok, maybe we can."

"I guess."

They went closer and kissed. Athrun, was feeling Cagalli's body on top of him and it was enough to make him want more. He rolled over in the sand to be the one on top. His hands soon travelled, all over Cagalli's body who responded with a lot of enthusiasm.

⋆⋆⋆

Kira and Lacus were walking, hand in hand, along the beach. Kira had offered a beautiful necklace with a heart shape pendant to Lacus. Kira glanced at Lacus and saw that she was staring at her pendant.

"Do you like it?"

"Yes, very much, thank you Kira. But you know, you didn't have to buy me anything."

"I know. I just wanted you to have something symbolizing our love."

Kira stopped, took both Lacus' hands in his before leaning down to kiss her. Their kiss was becoming more heated as time went by. It was no more the chaste kisses they had shared at the beginning. They were enjoying each other taste when their heard some moaning. They stopped kissing and look where the sounds seemed to come from. In the dark they saw two forms, lying in the sand. From where they were, Kira and Lacus could make the clothes around the locked in couple. Kira and Lacus, understanding they were watching a couple in their lovemaking suddenly went red, and decided go the other way.

⋆⋆⋆

I am cold, thought Cagalli, her eyes still closed. She moved a little to get closer from the source of warm coming from her side. She touched the bare skin and asked to herself Is Lacus sleeping clotheless? Then she felt something strange. She was lying on something that wasn't her bed. That's when she opened her eyes. The moon was letting her place to the sun and everything was silent around. She saw the clothes around her and noticed that she was completely naked. She heard a noise coming from her side. She turned her head and saw Athrun, as naked as she was, sleeping. Then she remembered. The party, Athrun and her drinking, Athrun and her walking on the beach, Athrun and her making out, Athrun and her having sex. She couldn't hold it any longer!

"AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH"
