Gundam SEED Fan Fiction / Gundam Seed Destiny Fan Fiction ❯ Destiny of Love ❯ love's way ( Chapter 6 )

Lacus's hand slid over the water smoothly causing ripples to expand outwards. “This is the type of place that I'd always wished I could live in. It's convenient and beautiful but it also has peaceful places like this that just make you feel relaxed,” she said casting a look towards Kira who was staring at the stars high in the night sky.

 

“That's just the way ORB is,” Kira said turning towards her and watched as if mesmerized as she continued to do what she was doing. “I don't think your husband will even think about ever moving here though,” he said not liking the idea that she lived so far away out of his reach.

 

“Yes, that is a problem for me,” she replied in a dejected tone. She enjoyed being with Kira more than anything. The distance between the two of them would not be something she would look forward to. Especially since in just one night she'd fallen in love with the man sitting a short distance away from her.

 

It just seemed to happen so suddenly for her. The two of them were just talking about this and that. The more Lacus heard about Kira, the more she felt herself falling for him. She saw what a good heart he had within his words and the actions he took in his past for his friends and family. She just couldn't help but fall in love.

 

Sure, she had a husband. Sure, she couldn't do anything about that at the moment. She just put aside all of her fears and doubts. She knew that it was too late to turn back from her. If only for a few days, she wished to be happy with Kira.

 

Kira frowned and stood up to walk over to the woman. He thought she looked really good with a true smile on her face. To see her frown wasn't something he really enjoyed seeing. “Are you ok Lacus?” he asked her softly while wrapping his arms around her from behind. He couldn't help but smile when he saw how easily she relaxed into his embrace.

 

“Yeah, I guess I'm just enjoying my time with you a little more than I thought,” she admitted with a slight blush staining her cheeks. She stood up and took a few steps away from the beautiful fountain. “I… don't want this week to end,” she said looking into his violet eyes.

 

Kira just nodded his head as his hand came up and cupped her cheek. “Then we'll just have to make the best out of it,” he said before leaning in for a kiss which she was more than happy to reciprocate.

 

When she felt his tongue asking for entrance, she opened her mouth and gave him entrance. While their tongues battled for dominance, Lacus pulled herself in as close as she could to Kira so that they were closely pressed together.

 

Unfortunately for Kira, it made him lose balance a bit and since his legs were pressed against the edge of the fountain. The added pressure pushed him into it a little harder and he lost the last of his balance. With Lacus still in his arms, the two of them fell back and into the water.

 

Lacus came back up first since she was lying on Kira and stumbled to get out of the water that was engulfing the two of them. Her wet bangs covered her eyes and made it hard to see. So she pushed them out of her eyes and climbed out of the fountain. “Did you have to drag me down with you?” she couldn't help but ask when she saw Kira pull himself out of the fountain.

 

“You're the one that caused me to lose balance in the first place. So I just thought that you should share the glory with me,” he said with a grin as he squeezed as much water as he could out of his shirt.

 

Lacus couldn't help but laugh afterwards. She then looked down at her soaked sundress and frowned. “And this was the first time that I got to really wear this too,” she said trying to get as much of the water as she could out of it.

 

“Well if it's any consolation, I thought you looked great in it before,” Kira said making her blush a bit more. “We should go. We need to get something dry on before we catch a cold,” he said taking her hand in his own.

 

Lacus took one step before cringing in pain. “Kira wait!” she said kneeling down and started to massage her foot. “I think I twisted it on the side of the fountain when we fell,” she said wincing a bit when she tried to walk on it again.

 

Kira kneeled down to inspect it as well. “Doesn't look like it's badly injured. Can you walk?” he asked her but she just shook her head no. He just nodded and turned his back to her. “I guess I'll just have to carry you since it's my fault for pulling you down with me,” he said giving her a comforting smile.

 

Lacus shook her head rapidly. “I'm sure that I'll probably be too heavy for you,” she said with a frown. “Why don't I wait right here while you go get the car?” she decided to try but he shook his head no. “Why not?” she asked curiously.

 

“The road doesn't come up this hill. Why do you think we had to walk most of the way here?” he questioned which she didn't have an answer to. “Don't worry; I'm a lot stronger than I look. I'm sure you aren't that heavy anyways,” he continued with a smile that made her heart flutter.

 

Lacus was hesitant but eventually climbed onto his back. Trent was trying to force her on a diet saying that she needed to lose weight. She never did but it did make her doubt herself a little. Lacus was instantly surprised when Kira picked her up with little effort on his part.

 

Kira started to walk a reasonable pace. He couldn't see what Lacus meant by her being too heavy. It was very easy for him to carry her. `Does that husband of hers even know how to give a compliment to her?' he asked himself.

 

Kira suddenly started to feel a bit uncomfortable. Because of her being wet, her clothes clung to her figure in all the right places. Although Kira couldn't see since she was on his back, he could still feel it since she was holding onto him tightly with her breast pushing into his back.

 

Although Kira wasn't exactly a virgin, he sure felt like one when he had someone like Lacus pressed up against him in such a way. No one had ever gotten such a reaction from him like this. His first time was with Fllay but he couldn't ever remember her even coming close to getting a reaction similar to this from him. A simple touch from Lacus could make him feel like he was on fire.

 

Lacus couldn't help but blush. She knew what her current state was and why there was a bit of a blush on Kira's face. She actually liked the thought that Kira might be thinking of her in such a way but she knew she could never voice her thoughts in such a way.

 

The car was a block or two from where they were. Kira felt like he was about to go crazy with desire but held himself back as best as he could because he figured that Lacus wouldn't really appreciate it if he did.

 

It seemed like an eternity and yet like a second at the same time before they finally reached the car. Lacus got in and started to rub her arms because they were really starting to feel cold and her clothes weren't drying even a little. She just wanted to get a change of clothes even if she wanted to keep the sundress on. “Where are we going?” she asked not recognizing the direction. She knew it wasn't in the direction of her hotel.

 

“My place is a lot closer than your hotel. I'm sure that Cagalli won't mind if you borrow some of her clothes until you can get back to your hotel and get some of your own,” Kira said trying not to look at her since her clothes were still sticking to her figure too nicely for his comfort.

 

“Yeah, what about Cagalli? What do you think she'll say when she sees us like this?” Lacus asked since Cagalli had a tendency to jump to conclusions. She might actually be right about some of it if that was the case.

 

“Chances are that she won't even be home. She'll probably be with Athrun enjoying their secret relationship that they think I know nothing about,” Kira said with a grin which made Lacus laugh and nod her head in agreement. “I've known about it since pretty much the first week,” he continued remembering how uneasy they both were around him then. It just drew too much attention to them that it was easy to figure out what had happened.

 

Lacus turned her head towards Kira with a confused look. She could tell that there was something going between the two of them just as Kira. “If you know, then why is it that you don't talk to them about it?” she couldn't help but ask.

 

Kira seemed to be thinking over it for several minutes before he made his answer. “To see how long it will take them to tell me about it themselves. Then maybe I'll toy around with them a bit,” he said in an amused tone.

 

Lacus couldn't help but giggle at the idea. She figured that Athrun was scared of what Kira's reaction might be to dating his sister. She had a feeling that she knew exactly what Kira was going to do but she also figured that Kira was just fooling around when he said that to lighten the mood.

 

Lacus noticed that the car was coming to a stop and looked out it to see a nice looking neighborhood, or at least from what she could see in the dark. The house they were in front of looked cozy from the outside. It was two stories and a white color like most of the other houses in the area.

 

“This is where you live?” she questioned and he just nodded her head. She stepped out of the car and it was only then that she remembered that she was wet. In all the time in the car, she was able to keep her mind off the idea. Now that she wasn't, she felt it full force. Her hair dried on it's own but her sundress was still very wet despite having a little time to dry on its own.

 

“Come on, you really need to get into something drier,” he said wrapping his arm around her shoulder to try and warm her up the best that he could while leading her up the steps to his home.

 

Since the lights were off, he guessed that Cagalli wasn't home just like he thought. He then noticed a note taped up just inside the door to the house. He picked it up and read it aloud since he knew what it was going to say. “Kira, won't be back until tomorrow. I'm going to see an old friend,” he read so that Lacus could here.

 

“I guess you were right,” Lacus said which Kira just grinned to. She felt Kira let go and whimpered quietly at the loss but saw that he was just walking to what appeared to be a closet. He returned a moment later with a towel and robe in his hand.

 

“Here, there's a bathroom just down the hall for you to change in,” he said and couldn't help but take a look. The fabric still clung to her and emphasized her curves nicely. He then shook his head to get rid of the thoughts that were starting to plague him of what it looked like under that.

 

Kira went into his room and grabbed the first thing he could find which was a pair of sweatpants and a tank top. He then headed back into the living room which was still empty since Lacus was still getting changed.

 

Lacus came into the room a few minutes later wearing the bathrobe and smiled at Kira. Kira gulped at the sight before him but he managed to remain calm for the most part. “I can lend you some of Cagalli's clothes and take you to the hotel or would you like to wait until your clothes dry?” he asked her looking away with a blush.

 

“I guess I'll just wait till my clothes dry so that Cagalli won't have to worry where her clothes went to,” she said having a very similar reaction to what Kira was wearing right then. She suddenly had an image of her hands running up and down his chest which she immediately shook off.

 

“I'm sure that she won't mind but if that's your choice,” he said taking the sundress from her hands before leaving the room. He came back a few minutes later with his hands empty. “I put it in the drier. It should be done in an hour or two,” he said once again feeling uncomfortable.

 

Lacus took a seat on one of the couches and was followed shortly by Kira who took the seat right next to her. “A-alright. What should we do until then?” she asked him but had a few dirty thoughts of what to do before she shook them off while her face made an impression of a tomato.

 

“Movie?” Kira questioned and she just shrugged her shoulders. “You can choose what movie you want. They're all over there,” he said pointing to a large rack. “I guess I'll go get us some snacks,” he said walking towards the kitchen glad to get away from the tension for a few minutes.

 

Kira breathed a sigh of relief when he entered the kitchen. He could never remember ever feeling such an urge of attraction for anyone in his life. It just made him want her so badly.

 

Grabbing a popcorn bag, Kira threw it in the microwave. While it was popping he went to the refrigerator and grabbed some soda bottles. He wasn't sure what she wanted so he just grabbed all of them. He set the sodas on the counter and reached up to grab some cups.

 

Almost as soon as he picked them up, a pair of arms encircled his waist and he dropped them. He was glad that they were plastic or else they would've broken from the fall. “Lacus,” he muttered softly turning in her arms only to have his lips devoured by her own.

 

Completely forgetting about the sodas, Kira eagerly returned her kiss as his arms wrapped around her tightly to keep her as close to him as possible. The passion between them was overwhelming.

 

As if possessed, Kira grabbed a hold of her. He lifted her off the ground and almost immediately her legs wrapped around his waist while he carried her. Neither of them even bothered to respond when the microwave went off meaning that the popcorn was finished.

 

His mind didn't seemed to work on it's own in those moments. It was consumed by thoughts of the pink haired beauty in his arms and what was going on between them. He led them towards his room but she didn't say a word of protest to him. Instead, she just continued to kiss him with everything she had.

 

When they got to his room, Kira used his foot to open and then close the door before turning towards his bed. The two of them fell upon it without breaking the kiss that had not stopped since it first started in the kitchen. There was so much passion and feeling behind it that they just couldn't control.

 

For Lacus, she'd never experienced such a passion in her life. There wasn't and never had been any passion in her marriage. A part of her brain was telling her to stop and think things through but he heart and body were acting on their own.

 

The two of them rolled over so that Kira was now the one that was underneath Lacus. Her hands nimbly worked their way under his tank top and pushed it up and pulled it over his head. She admired his chest. It had some muscles but wasn't overly done. Her hands traced it before leaning down and placing feather light kisses upon it.

 

A moan escaped his lips from the feel of her own lips upon his chest. He pulled her back up for that they were eye level and placed his lips on hers. He loved the taste of her mouth. His hands didn't remain idle though. They reach into the robe and started to softly caress her breasts.

 

Lacus gasped loudly from the feel of him caressing her. It was surprisingly gentle to her but also hard enough so that she felt pleasure from it. Trent was rough and she never enjoyed having him touch her.

 

While one hand was busy caressing her breast, Kira's second hand found the knot to the robe and worked on undoing it. Unfortunately, with only one hand he was unable to get the damn thing undone. Her growled in frustration but never once let go of the breast of the beauty lying on top of him.

 

Noticing the trouble that he was having, Lacus took his hand away from the knot and instead undid it herself. With the knot undone, the robe fell loose to expose her breast to the watchful eyes of Kira.

 

Violet eyes roamed over her body as the robe fell off her completely. To him, she had the perfect body. There was barely a blemish upon it. Except for what remained of the bruise on her arm, her body looked in great condition even with all the beatings she'd received since she got married.

 

Leaning up, Kira took one of her pert nipples into his mouth and sucked on them as if he were a baby trying to get some milk. His hand continued to caress her other breast so that it got the same attention.

 

The beautiful blue eyes of Lacus were shut tightly as pleasure coursed through her body. She wasn't used to such a new feeling so it felt strange yet pleasurable. Her hand held Kira's head to her breast so that he was as close as possible.

 

Kira pulled back and switched breasts so that he could give the other breast the same treatment. He wanted to make this the best night she ever had. He wasn't going to hold anything back.

 

A groan escaped Lacus's mouth when she felt Kira release her breasts from the pleasurable torture. She didn't say anything though and instead took his mouth with her own before suddenly finding the two of them reversing position do that she was the one that was underneath him again.

 

Separating himself from her lips, Kira kissed down her face and onto her body. He paid a bit more attention to her breasts before continuing to kiss down her stomach and to her waist. He skipped over her panty clad core and started to kiss her thighs.

 

She couldn't help but moan even more at such attention being given to her body. She suddenly felt bare as her panties were pulled down and off her body leaving her completely bare to his eyes. She blushed a bit but didn't say a word as he continued to worship her body.

 

Kira sat up and admired the body of the goddess that was lying beneath him. “You're beautiful,” he admitted and enjoyed watching her face turn even redder than it already was. He loved getting that kind of reaction from her. It just made her look even more beautiful in his eyes.

 

His hands glided up and down her body before resting on her core. He saw her body jerk at the touch. He could see that she was already moist. He then slid a finger in and she jerk even more. `The way she reacts makes it look like this has never happened before,' he thought pumping his finger in and out of her.

 

Lacus writhed from beneath him. Her eyes were tightly shut and her hands were clenching while taking some of the sheets with them. She was feeling nothing but pleasure from this act. Never had she felt anything but pain before then.

 

Removing his fingers, Kira leaned down and started to caress her moist opening with his tongue. He immediately became addicted to the taste that was her. His tongue licked along the outside and he enjoyed the loud moans that she was eliciting. He took the little ball of nerves that showed up in his mouth and started to suck on it.

 

That was all it took to send Lacus over the edge. A pleasure unlike anything she'd ever experienced coursed through her body. She let out a scream of pleasure as she released her juices into the awaiting mouth of Kira. He didn't waste a drop and took it all in.

 

It was several moments later before Lacus finally came down from her high. She was breathing heavily and couldn't believe what she just felt. She was married but that was the first orgasm that she ever had. “Wow!” she managed to breathe out as he crawled up her body again.

 

Kira just knew that such a feeling was new to her. `What a lousy husband, can't even satisfy his wife. I'll just have to fix that for her,' he thought with a grin before kissing her so that she could taste herself on him. “Good?” he whispered into her ear which she was only able to nod to.

 

By then, Kira was painfully erect. The sweatpants were confining him and he didn't really enjoy it. Yet the pleasure that he could see on Lacus's face made it all worth it. To him, she was a jewel that needed to be worshipped.

 

Lacus reached out a shaky hand and slid them into his sweat pants. She heard his gasp and grasped onto it tightly. She knew she had complete control over him at that moment. She flipped them over and gripped the edge of his pants. “Let me make it up to you,” she said a bit timidly.

 

“T-there isn't any need to do that Lacus. I'm fine,” Kira said but she ignored him and pulled down his sweatpants and boxers. His painfully erect member sprung up in front of her face.

 

Lacus stroked it up and down a few times. The size of it rather worried her. Trent wasn't exactly well endowed and it hurt to have him in her. She didn't even want to think what it would feel like to have Kira's member in her since it was much larger.

 

She timidly licked the tip of his engorged rod and Kira gasped. She licked down the base of it and then back up. Trent would try to get her to do this but she always refused. This was just another of the many things Kira could get her to do without even trying.

 

Taking the base in her mouth, she went down as far as she could before she felt herself gagging and came up for air. She felt embarrassed for not being able to go that far but the sounds Kira was making told her that she was doing a good job.

 

He watched as her head went back down as far as she could manage. It was clear she didn't have much experience to such an action but he had to admit that it felt wonderful to feel her engorged rod in her warm mouth.

 

Kira didn't want things to end early. He pulled Lacus off his member and flipped them around so that he was hovering over her. He stared deep into her eyes asking her a silent question that he knew she knew what it was. He saw her just nod his head and he placed his dick at her extremely moist entrance.

 

Looking into her eyes, he saw them quiver with fear. “I want you to relax. I don't know what you experienced before but I'm not the same as that husband of yours,” he said and she nodded and closed her eyes tightly. “Open your eyes Lacus,” he ordered and her eyes slowly opened to look into his violet ones.

 

Kira started to slowly push into her moist passage. She was really tight around him and it made it hard to get himself completely in. He saw her cringe slightly but she looked ok besides that. “Relax,” he repeated before pulling out slowly and then pushed back in.

 

Lacus gasped. She expected it to be painful to have something so big within her. It did hurt a little but it was more pleasurable than painful to have him within her. Each of his slow thrusts alleviated any of the pain she originally felt and just made her feel better and better each time.

 

To see her eyes shine in pleasure made Kira's heart flutter. He continued to thrust and her moans became louder and louder each time. It was painful to be going slow but he wouldn't move faster until she told him to.

 

“Faster!” Lacus finally managed to say as the pleasure continued to build deep within her. This was the first time that she could actually understand why people loved this so much. It was nothing but unpleasant experiences for her before then though.

 

Kira sped up his thrusts and kissed her before moving his kisses down to her neck. His hands fondled her breasts, his mouth laid havoc all over her, and his thrusts were picking up speed. With Fllay all he did was have sex with her. With Lacus he knew that he was making love with her. He felt like this was so much better.

 

Lacus felt something building deep within her. It was a pleasure that was just waiting to be released. A bomb set to explode. Her pants and moans were becoming louder and louder with each of his thrusts. “Kira… I,” she said but found herself having trouble speaking. “I'm so close,” she managed to get out.

 

Kira was glad to hear that. He wanted to make sure she got the most out of this as she could. He felt like he could still go on for a little longer. He wanted to see just how many times he could make her find her release before he did.

 

Her legs wrapped tightly around him to help him go deeper than before. She was so close that she could almost feel it. She wanted that feeling again and she knew that it was only Kira that could actually make her feel that way.

 

Her inner walls pulsated before contracting painfully around him. He held back the best he could right then as she screamed her release. She could feel nothing but pleasure that seared through her body.

 

Kira continued his thrusts feeling himself building up but he pushed himself back. He knew he wouldn't last much longer but he wanted to make sure that she came one last time before these wonderful moments had to end.

 

Lacus clung to Kira as he continued his thrusts. She just felt like she could die right then and be happy about it. Her arms wrapped around him tightly as she felt that pleasurable torture once again starting to build up deep within her.

 

With each thrust, Kira felt himself coming closer and closer to the brink of his own orgasm. He just couldn't take it anymore and came with a lot of force. It had to be the best orgasm that he ever had in his life. He just knew it was because of who it was that he was sharing this moment with.

 

She could feel his release and it sent Lacus over the edge with pleasure and brought about her third orgasm of the night. She screamed with all her passion behind it as her walls clenched around his member once more before she fell limply on the bed still high on pleasure.

 

Kira hovered over her for a few seconds still buried deep within her. He reluctantly pulled out of her and rolled to the side. He turned and looked at her as she did her best to retrieve her composure after such a pleasurable experience. She then turned her head towards him and gave him her brightest smile which caused him to return it just as much.

 

Lacus's head rested against the pillow as she stared at Kira who stared right back at her. She'd never felt so relaxed in her entire life. “That was amazing,” she said staring into his eyes lovingly. She didn't care how fast they just moved in their relationship. It just felt so right for her to do.

 

Kira couldn't help but smile at how happy she looked. It was clear that she wasn't used to such pleasure. “Lacus,” he said almost hesitantly. He saw that she had his full attention so he put a lot on the line to ask the next question that came out of his mouth. “Is… is it possible to love someone you just met?” he asked and saw her eyes widen in surprise at such a question.

 

Lacus stared at him for several seconds before tears of happiness started to fall down her face. “Yes, I should know,” she said leaning into to give him a kiss. She knew this was wrong but she just didn't want to be right.

 

Kira noticed that more and more tears started to fall down her face and he grew worried. “Is everything ok Lacus? Why are you crying?” he asked nervously as his hand came out and gently wiped away the tears that continued to fall. He hated seeing her cry. He felt that she should only smile. Not that fake one she uses but the true one he'd seen.

 

“I'm not sad, I'm happy. No one's actually told me that they really loved me before. Trent said it once but I know he didn't mean it. It was only a means to get me to consider marrying him. He's never said it once since then,” she said resting her head against Kira's bare chest.

 

It was silent for several minutes but it was comfortable. Lacus finally broke it. “I cried… on my wedding night,” she said in a tone close to a whisper. “I saved myself for that night so that it would be special. It wasn't. Instead it was painful and he didn't care. All he ever cared about was him and his pride while I felt like I was about to be torn in half. I was in so much pain and begged him to stop but he never did and it became worse and worse. I've been scared of intimacy ever since,” she admitted as she sat up and wrapped her arms around her knees.

 

Kira remained silent as he sat up and wrapped his arms around her shoulders. He laid feather light kisses upon her shoulder while she relaxed against him. “Do you still think like that?” he couldn't help but ask. He did everything he could to make this the most pleasurable experience he could for her.

 

“Sort of. It's not you though. This night has been the best night of my entire life. I don't want it to end. I want to leave Trent but I know that I can't. As such, I just know that I'm going to have to experience that pain again,” she said shaking a bit at the mere thought of having to go back to that life.

 

“Almost as soon as I came back from my honeymoon, he demanded me to have sex with him since I avoided it at all cost during the honeymoon. I was scared so I said no. That was the first time he ever hit me. He even forced me into bed,” she said turning her blue eyes towards his violet ones.

 

Kira couldn't blame Lacus for being scared. She'd gone through more than anyone should have to go through. “Then come with me. I won't let him touch you ever again,” he said holding onto her a little tighter as if she would disappear if he ever let her go.

 

“I'd love so much to be able to agree and just leave him right now but I know he'll come after me no matter what. You'd be in great danger then and I wouldn't be able to stand it if you got hurt because of me. I have to go back. I plan to only spend as much time there as is necessary for me to find a way out that won't get anyone I love hurt,” she said looking at him with tears falling down her eyes.

 

Kira wanted so desperately to just say no and force her to stay there with him. Somehow he just knew that it would do him no good. “I don't want you to go back to him,” he decided to continue arguing.

 

Lacus looked up and Kira and couldn't help but smile at his concern for her. “Thank you for being concerned but I think this is something I need to do. Just give me a few weeks. Just a few weeks to get things sorted out. If I can't do it then I'll ask my father for help. It will be kind of weird though since I've barely talked to him since I got married,” she said looking a bit disappointed in herself.

 

Kira couldn't help but asked the question that'd been on his mind for a while now. “Why is he so insistent on keeping you especially when he doesn't even consider you a wife?” he asked before laying a kiss upon her shoulder.

 

“I'm a source of income for him. My family's company makes several times more income than he could ever hope to make. Not to mention that he's having some serious financial troubles with his addiction to gambling. If I leave then he'll have no one to pay off his debts. Not like I'd do that anyways,” she said with a hint of resentment in her voice.

 

“I can't change your mind about going?” he asked with a genuine worry within his voice. He saw her shake her head no and frowned. “You will come back, right?” he asked tightening his hold around her.

 

“If it's possible then I will. I know in my heart that you're the person I was always meant to be with. I know that nothing will ever change that. If I run now he'll just chase me down and force me back. I need to find a way to get him to leave me alone permanently,” she said enjoying the warmth that he was giving off.

 

“I'll help in anyway I can as well,” Kira said carefully pulling her so that she was lying down. “You have three days left to be here. I intend to make the most out of all of them. Let's just sleep for now,” he said wrapping his arms protectively around her waist and buried his face in her neck.

 

Lacus rested her head on Kira's chest and sighed in content. She felt like she could go through anything to be able to be in a position every day. Then another thought came to her that wasn't nearly as pleasant. “Kira… what about Fllay?” she couldn't help but ask. She knew what she wanted to do. She felt like she knew what Kira was going to do but she wanted to hear it with her own ears.

 

Kira stiffened a bit at the mention of Fllay. He was doing his best not to have to think about her or what he was going to do. “Even if I wanted to I don't think I could stay with her. I want you. If I couldn't have you even after this it would still be a bad idea for me to stay with her after what we just went through,” he said in a timid voice.

 

A small smile came to her face. She never wanted someone to get hurt but she also wanted Kira. “I see,” she said burying her face into his chest. “I feel sorry for her yet I'm also happy at the same time,” she said closing her eyes and relaxed into his embrace.

 

“I don't think that it would be fair to break up with her over the phone. She'll be back shortly after you leave. Like you are doing with Trent, I'll confront her about it face to face,” he said breathing in her soothing scent.

 

Kira didn't get a reply from Lacus. He looked at her and watched her calm breathing. He just knew that she'd fallen asleep. `When she sleeps, it's like she has no troubles,' he thought smiling at the peaceful look that was on her face. `How many times has she been able to sleep like this? Sleep without all the worries that her cruel husband forced onto her shoulders,' he thought lightly pushing her naked form close to him as he closed his eyes and was soon to follow her lead into sleep.

 

*****

 

Lacus's eyes slowly fluttered open the next morning. Never in her life had she slept so comfortably. She blushed at the memories of what she'd done the night before but a bright smile still adorned her beautiful face.

 

`Kira,' she thought looking into his peaceful face. She saw his eyes flutter open at that moment and smiled brightly for him. “Good morning,” she said in a dreamy voice before resting her head back against his chest.

 

“Good morning to you too,” he said leaning in and gave her a sweet kiss on the lips. “How did you sleep?” he asked holding her tightly to him so that he could savor the feel of her just a little while longer before they had to start their day.

 

Lacus was silent for a few moments. To Kira, she looked almost like she'd fallen back asleep. He guessed that there were many times that she probably had sleepless night worrying what that asshole of a husband would do to her next. He was the interrupted from his thought when she finally spoke. “Better than I have in my entire life,” she said with a sigh of content.

 

Lacus's eyes completely opened and she looked at the alarm clock before shooting up in her bed. “Oh no! It's already past twelve?!” she yelled looking around for something to put on. “This isn't good. He should've gotten the order hours ago but I didn't make it,” she said frantically since that was the only thing that was letting her have time to herself.

 

Kira watched her move around for a few seconds before he felt himself getting dizzy. When she past by he reached out and pulled her back onto the bed with him. She struggled but he silenced her with a kiss. He pulled back too fast for his comfort and smiled at her. “Don't worry. I remembered you mentioning it before so I just called and made the order for you. So relax,” he said rubbing her shoulders.

 

Lacus took a deep breath of relief knowing that he might not suspect that she was out all night with a guy. “But how did you know the room numbers? I don't remember ever telling them to you,” she said looking at him with confused eyes.

 

Kira just smiled and chuckled at her question. “So that she wouldn't forget, Cagalli wrote them down and I happened to get a look at the numbers,” he said kissing the back of her neck which caused her to moan in pleasure.

 

Lacus still couldn't believe all that had happened between her and Kira just a few days after they met. “Kira, can I ask you a question? Please don't take it offensively though,” she said and he nodded his head slowly. “Do you think we might be moving a little too fast?” she couldn't help but ask. She'd never regret the decision but she wasn't sure about him.

 

Kira looked at Lacus inquisitively for a few seconds before a smile broke out on his face. “Do you regret it?” he asked figuring he already knew that answer which he got when she shook her head no. “I don't either. In just a few days I've fallen in love with you and I don't care how fast it was,” he said wrapping his arms securely around her in a loving embrace.

 

That was all that Lacus felt that she should know. All of her doubts washed away with those words and she relaxed in his embrace once again. “I love you too,” she said finding the words rolled off her tongue very easily.

 

Despite how reluctant he was, Kira let go of Lacus and stood up. “We should probably get dressed. Cagalli will probably be home soon,” he said before realizing that her dress was still in the washer. “Just wait here a minute or two,” he said before throwing on some clothes and ran out of the room.

 

Lacus just sat there relaxing on the bed for a few minutes before she too stood up and decided to at least search for her underwear. When Kira came back with her dress, she quickly threw it on and the two of them made their way down the stairs.

 

Before the two of them could reach the door, they heard the sounds of a car pulling into the driveway. Both were aware that even though Cagalli had originally wanted them to date, that she didn't want them to get involved now to avoid having two of the three closest people in her life get hurt because they couldn't be together.

 

Lacus panicked a bit because she didn't want this to get out to anyone right then. “What are we going to do Kira?” Lacus whispered looking out the window and saw Cagalli get out of a car that she recognized as Athrun's.

 

Kira remained calm while looking out the window as well. “Nothing,” was his reply before he led Lacus to a seat and sat her down. “Just leave this to me,” he said heading into the kitchen to get something to eat.

 

The door opened up a few moments later and Cagalli came walking into the house alone. She looked up and was surprised to see Lacus sitting there. Then a suspicious look crossed her face. “What are you doing here Lacus?” were the first words that came out of her mouth.

 

Lacus thought hard for some sort of excuse that Cagalli would actually buy. “Well… you see,” she said unable to come up with some sort of logical excuse except for the truth that she'd been there all night.

 

Kira came out of the kitchen a few moments later much to Lacus's relief. “She came by a few minutes ago looking for you. Said something about wanting to go to the beach,” Kira said remembering what Lacus had told him Cagalli wanted them to do sometime that week. “I figured you'd be home soon so she decided to wait,” he lied. He figured that if Cagalli and Athrun could lie about their relationship then he could do that with Lacus.

 

“Hey! That's a great idea,” Cagalli said in an excited voice completely forgetting her earlier suspicions about why Lacus might really be there. She thought that it was a logical explanation. “You and Athrun can come to Kira,” she said with a grin.

 

It didn't take long for Kira to make up his mind. “Sure,” he said liking the idea of being able to see Lacus in a swimsuit. “By the way, was that Athrun's car I saw drop you off?” he couldn't help but tease her a little.

 

Cagalli blushed but quickly got it under control in hopes that no one noticed. “Yeah, I ran into him and he decided to give me a ride home since I don't have a car around here. You got a problem with that?!” she said angrily holding up a fist that she intended to use if Kira didn't give her the right reason.

 

`Right,' Kira thought trying not to show the amusement he was feeling on the inside. “Oh ok, I just looked like you might've been with him is all,” he said really trying to hold back his laughter at the sight of her blushing face.

 

“Of… of course not!” a flustered Cagalli managed to yelled at her twin. “I swear! You're so immature! That is why I am definitely the older of the two of us!” she yelled approaching him with fierce strides.

 

“You can say it all you want but our mom definitely said different,” he said remembering when the two of them got to meet their mother for the first time. Sadly, their father was dead for years before then. From what they heard, he died around the time that they were born which was what prompted their biological mother to give them up.

 

“She had to be lying!” Cagalli yelled in anger. She refused to accept that she was the younger of the two of them. To her it just seemed impossible for it to actually be true. “What matters is that I know the real truth!” she yelled but got annoyed at the look of amusement that was on Kira and Lacus's face. She swore that the two of them were too much alike for their own good.

 

“Why don't we all just stop this arguing and go?” Lacus suggested before she had to witness one of Cagalli's outbursts. They were never a pleasant thing for anyone to have to witness or be a part of.

 

“Right!” Kira immediately agreed hoping to change the subject before his sister decided to hit him. “Let's get going since by the looks of it, it will be a beautiful day outside. So let's go!” he said heading up to his room and got changed into something a little more suited for the beach.

 

“Fine,” Cagalli said before turning to her friend. “I guess we'll have to make a stop for a new bathing suit first since I don't exactly have one right now,” she said with a grin before sitting down to wait for her brother to get done getting changed. She wanted to get to the beach and fast.

 

Lacus just nodded in agreement before turning her attention to the stairs which Kira was coming down from. He was wearing a plain blue t-shirt with a pair of black swim shorts. “Since you're ready, let's go,” Lacus said standing up followed by Cagalli before the three of them walked out of the house.
