~Recap~
"You must be Cagalli's cousin Kira…I remember you introducing yourself on that rainy day!" "Uh Yah…and you are?"
"It's getting late, I better get home….bye Kira it was nice speaking to you!" she turned to start walking home when she felt a hand grab her arm. "Wait Lacus" Kira said "Since its late let me drop you home" "No it's alright Kira….thank you though" she shook her head.
"Please Lacus I don't want anything to happen to you!"
"WHAT DID YOU SAY!"
"You break her heart or hurt her in ANYWAY I WILL break your face, understood!"
"Does my room look like a hotel room?" she asked him while turning to face him "You never complained when we were little; why start now?" he told her stayed quiet and continued to do her work; Kira's cell phone rang "Kira here" there was a long pause "Alright who the hell are you and how did you get my number?" and another long pause; Cagalli looked over at Kira worry etched on her face. Kira's eyes opened "Kira don't tell me it's..."
Kira threw his phone on the other side of the bed and turned to look at Cagalli. "It was her wasn't it?" she asked worridly "Yup" Kira sighed "Well you do realize that it's your fault for being a playboy and leading girls on".
"I know...but I never wanted to..." Kira started to say but Cagalli cut him off "Look if you can't handel her leave it to me; you're too soft...but that's the reason I love you so dearly as a cousin" "Hmm you better not start a fight with her!" he warned. "Is she really that tough?" Cagalli asked Kira who nodded and said "Yeah...Fllay Alstar and her gang once made a girl at Archangel kill herself"
Cagalli and Kira shared a slient moment but she broke "Kira...if you knew she was like this then why did you go out with her?" Cagalli asked softly "It's was for two reasons; first one was that she was starting to be a pest beging for me to go out with her once and the second; I was dared to taked her out". Cagalli shook her head "Soft Yamato soft" "I know" Kira moaned from under the pillow. "Don't worry about me Kira...if Fllay really wants you then she's going to take out all the competition...and that means Lacus!" Cagalli gasped as Kira's head shot up "Damn".
"I better warn her...and we better stay near her...no wait Kira you don't go near her! especially when Fllay is around!" she commanded him.
"Good morning everyone!" Lacus greeted them happily. "You seems extra cheery this morning...what's up?" Auel commented looking at Lacus intently "Guess!" she giggled "Uhh...Okay I give up!" he said giving up. "Awwww c'mon that's not fun!" Lacus teased "Oh well today's the conert!"
"How could I forget that?" Auel said scratching his head "Uhh maybe that's because you hardly come for practise" Miguel told him shaking his head while his friends giggled. "I'm so excited!" Miri said "I get to take pictures of the concert...except for our part!" she continued; winking and hooking her arms with Cagalli's and Stellar's. "Auel sometimes you can be so slow!" Nicol sighed "What are you playing in the concert Nicol?" Stellar asked "I'm playing a song I wrote called the of tears" "WOW! you write your own music! that's cool!" Cagalli comment in amazement.
Lacus took out a program and showed it to her friends while giggling "Look who else is performing"
Kira choked suddenly "You okay?" Shinn said giving him a bottle of water "Yes thanks" Kira thanked taking the bottle of water. "You know when you choke suddenly like that it means someone is making fun of you" Dearka laughed "Funny...so that's why you're always choking!" Kira shot back. "Ass".
Kira started to laugh "Dry Elsman dry!" Shinn laughed.
Just then Mrs. Simmons approached the boys "Well Kira I hope you're ready for tonight!" "Yes Mrs. Simmons" Kira answered as he and his friends left. "Woah Yamato...she's nice and all but isn't she a little too old for you?" Dearka howled "Shut up Dearka...she's making me perform in the concert tonight as punishment for skipping her classes" Kira answered rolling his eyes.
"Okay Kira" "SHUT UP!" "Uh can we just get to class!" Shinn sighed. "Geez will you guys give it a rest" Athrun said walking up to them "I'm surprised Mrs. Simmons didn't force you in the concert; you're always skipping her classes...more than me even!" Kira grumbled "Bet you didn't know that I come early to finish my music work" "What then that means...YOU!"
The day passed by really quickly and it was already night;" Just 10 more minutes til the show starts" Lacus said nervously "You'll do great Lacus!" Cagalli comforted her and also trying to hide her own nervousness. "Yeah...Cagalli I've thought about what you've told me and I think you're right every where I go I keep seeing Fllay. I don't want to cause any trouble for you or Kira" "Don't worry about that Lacus; just do what your heart tells you to do! because our hearts are always right!" "Thank you" Lacus thanked and Cagalli smiled.
"Hey guys-wow!" Kira exclaimed as he saw Lacus. Lacus was wearing a blue dress with purple lining and had her hair tied up in pigtails. Kira started to blush; when Lacus noticed he was looking at her she started to get a little red "You look beautiful!" Kira finally managed to say "Thank you Kira".
"Kira you're up first so get to the stage!" Mrs. Simmons said to him "Yes" he said and left "Good luck Kira!" Cagalli and Lacus called out to him; he turned and winked at them. Cagalli started grinning as Lacus started blushing "C'mon let's go cheer him on!" Cagalli said as she grabbed Lacus's hand and pulled her to their seats.
"Kira Yamato is our first performer! he will be singing Tomorrow!" Mrs. Simmons said into the microphone then handed it to Kira; the concert hall was full of people, girls started to scream as Kira came on stage and smiled. The music started to play and Kira started to sing:
Our prayer returns to the far-off sky
Secretly sending a wish, repeatedly
Going inside time as far as possible
Losing beats
Seeking to continue from yesterday
When you cried in the night
I was lead by your song when I closed my eyes
The quiet melody carved this earth
Holding it softly as it slept
Seasons pass, now you know loneliness
Hiding the evidence of conflict in my heart
How many times can we surpass the night?
To encounter a dream
Can we talk together?
Tracing the miracle of the stars
Connecting and adjusting echoes of this feeling
My heart singing a song close by
About the way to tomorrow
When you cried in the night
Your voice guided my path
My heart painfully singing a song close by
About the way to tomorrow
'Wow he's so good!' Lacus thought blushing and clapping as the crowd cheered for him. "Kira really did a good job!" Cagalli commented "Yes the music was perfect with his voice" Miri said snapping pictures of Kira. "Wait till we go then you'll see!" Auel sniffed.
"Good job Kira!" Mrs. Simmons applauded "And next we have Auel and Miguel". The guys came on stage; "GO AUEL! MIGUEL!" there friends cheered.
Blindly afraid, I hug my knees
This has to be wrong - I should be smiling here
If I just let it flow by, even in this quiet town
If I suppress my desire, I'll be cast aside as just a boy
Alone, thirsty for the feelings that shoot through me
I don't want to spill them
On this tough night, you're starting this game in earnest
But what game is it?
It's preeminent even now - my racing emotions aren't just for show
As much as it takes until it's pronounced final - my way of life and my way of crossing over
I want to see this until the end, adapting to all of this with you
The racing heat and healing - it's all I want and all I'll ever want
If this "unstoppable" thing is allowed to keep going,
no one can avoid blame for it
I can't suppress my urges and I can't endure my injuries
If this is a lesson, I guess I'll learn
So cold I can almost taste it
Raiding the most fragile of places
It's like I've drowned without even realizing it
In a dream I can feel even in the innermost part of me
I can't reach anyone, my racing emotions are un-shrouded
In loving someone, with speed and with freedom, all distance was closed in
The world holds us back, because you and I have a reason to be here
There's still a very faint trace of light somewhere, and I'll go anywhere to hunt it down
Show me how this ends, my racing emotions aren't just for show
As much as it takes until it's pronounced final - my way of life and my way of crossing over
I'll let this be the beginning, adapting to all of this with you
The racing heat and healing - it's all I want and all I'll ever want
"WOW MIGUEL SINGS SO NICE! AND HE PLAYS A GUITAR!" Stellar commented trying to keep her voice loud so her friends can hear her "I didn't know that Auel could play the drums!" Miri told her.
"Well this certainly was a surprise! Great job boys!" Mrs. Simmons said walking on stage. After three more performances including Nicol it was Lacus's turn; then Miri, Cagalli and Stellar.
"I'm so excited and nervous!" Lacus told her friends "Don't worry!" Auel said. Lacus was called and left for the stage. "This is our most talented singer...Please give a round of applause for Lacus Clyne!"
The night time fills the sky
Stars alive go floating by.
So still the evening air, so warm and soft
Peace everywhere.
I see a world in harmony
A world of peace and humanity.
Where people walk free
Like water in a stream
Flowing on forever more
The breeze that softly blows
The rasping warm so sweet and low
Upon my cheek I can feel tenderly
A kiss so real.
Like the brush of a hand
That I cannot see.
The sound of a voice, deep inside of my heart.
So I dream of a new day coming
For all of the world to see.
Lift your eyes and see a new day dawning
A dream that will soon come true,
The day we've waited for.
Lift your heart and see a future for us all
The river is our witness as it flows forever more
As it flows, as it flows forever more,
"Woah!" Kira thought. The whole hall way erupted in cheers for her. "Thank you!" she said in the microphone and walked off stage and was surprised to be greeted by Kira. "Lacus you were wonderful!" he told her handing her the bouquet of roses; "Oh Kira! You shouldn't have! Thank you! You also sounded magnificent!" she replied. "C'mon let's get some seats Cagalli is up next" he invited her and held his hand out to help her down the stairs.
"Now we have our last performance!" 'Finally!' Athrun thought he was only here to support Kira and he was board out of his mind.
"This song we're singing is called Gratitude!" Stellar said into the microphone the music started and they began to sing.
To those who laugh, support, and encourage me,
Every day's a carefree day; that's how I'm living.
The things I must do, and the things I can't do
there are so many of them, but I always do my best
Because of all your encouraging smiles.
If I had to say something, my answer would really be gratitude
To my irreplaceable friends and family overflowing with happiness together.
I have the present and I've got everyone, so I can still smile on a bad day
I'm so thankful; I can't hold back my tears.
To those who laugh, support,
and encourage me,
I won't ever forget this feeling.
In front of others, you're only mean to me,
But when it's just us you're always so nice.
You always lose our arguments, but you always smile so easily the end.
Sometimes I want to dress up and go out, and my selfishness can be annoying
But you still watch over me either way covering me with your warmth.
That's why I want to say thank you
Even though it's embarrassing saying it just now.
Even if I lose my way in a dark tunnel we can find the shining exit together.
Even when you're tired and busy, you still call me to say "good night"
I'm always so happy for these small kindnesses.
To those who laugh, support,
and encourage me,
I won't ever forget this feeling.
Sometimes we stubbornly disagree and refuse to give in, but
In the end, you're still very important to me, so
even now, I sincerely hope we're together,
It's so obvious, yet it's not.
I want to show how grateful I am for being alive right now.
I always want to let you know I'm happy.
To those who laugh, support,
and encourage me,
I won't ever forget this feeling.
Today, tomorrow, and the day after, we'll all laugh together.
Let's trust our bonds won't change no matter what.
Today, tomorrow, and the day after, we'll all walk together.
No matter what happens, we'll somehow stay together.
Thank you, Thank you, Thank you, Thank you,
Thank you, Thank you, Thank you, Thank you
'They're good...and the blond one in the middle doesn't look to bad either.….seems
familiar….oh yeah she's in our English class; she yelled at Kira and Shinn' his dangerous
emerald eyes had a glint of mischievous in them.
"Cagalli! You and Miri and Stellar were AMAZING!" Lacus said giving them a hug. "Thanks! Now let's go home! I'm tired!" Stellar yawn "Alright" the girls agreed just as they were about to leave they heard a voice "Stop right there pinky!"
Yeah! Another chapter done in a day!
