This is my idea for a new story which I think will go very well. This prologue just tells hows Lacus and Kira first meet and their initial feelings for each other. The places I name here are similar to places in the town where I live because I felt that my boring old town would be a perfect setting for the beginning of the story. This chapter is merely a quick summary of a period of about 6 months. I hope you like it.

A New Friend-

Three Years Prior to the first Bloody Valentine War:

Kira sighed, he stared at the road as it passed by and listened to the commotion of the other students on the long yellow vehicle. He looked down at the black long pants, white collared shirt, and blue tie he wore as his uniform. All guys were supposed to wear the same one. The girls wore the same thing except with skirts instead of pants.

This town was so boring but what else should he expect from the smallest area in Heliopolis. The pavement rolled by as Kira watched trees pass and saw kids walking or biking to school, he wished he lived closer to the school so he could do the same. He shifted over in the seat a little as the bus stopped in front of a nice looking brick house. A brown haired teen boy climbed onto the bus and walked over to the seat and sat down.

"Hiya Kira." Tolle said.

"Hey Tolle did you hear we have homeroom today?" Kira asked as the bus pulled into the lot of a large brick building with very few windows.

"No I didn't, what for?" Tolle asked.

"No idea." Kira said.

"Good old Westview High school." Tolle said while the two laughed at his comment. The school reminded the students more of a prison than a school. This opinion wasn't because of the teachers or rules of the school but simply on how it looked.

"Tolle, Kira!" A familiar voice shouted and the two turned to see their friend Miriallia running towards them. Her short auburn hair bouncing slightly as she ran and her aqua eyes glowing with happiness. She hugged Tolle as she met him and smiled up at her boyfriend.

"Hey guys", Sai said as he walked up with his arm around Flay with Kuzzey following.

"Hi Sai, Flay, and Kuzzey." The three other teens said together. The group began to talk as they all walked into the school to their lockers. He smiled as he looked at his friends. They were all not very popular except for Mir and Flay.

Kira grabbed his books and walked off to his homeroom by himself. The homerooms were assigned by last name and unfortunately his name was at the end of the alphabet while his friends were near the front. Kira walked into the room and looked around at the white walls. It was one of the most boring class rooms in the school. Taking a seat Kira watched as a few others walked into the room all around his age of 13. He recognized everyone until an unfamiliar girl walked into the room. She had long pink hair that flowed down to her waist, and her bangs were held out of her face by a double crescent clip. She wore the girls uniform for the school but looked so different from the other girls around the school. Kira was taken away instantly by her beauty and felt a strange feeling grow inside him that he had never felt before.

The girl looked around the room confused. She gathered stares from all the boys around the room that sort of frightened her. That was all the boys except one as she noticed a boy sitting in the back of the room sitting by himself with a book in his hands. The boy looked very handsome in his uniform and had long brown hair and violet colored eyes. He gave her a very kind smile and then turned back to his book. She couldn't help but feel some sort of strange feeling for the boy when she saw him. It wasn't a bad feeling, but a very warm feeling and she liked it. She walked over to the teacher and began talking to her.

"Excuse, I'm Lacus Clyne, the new student." She said with a smile.

"Oh well go ahead and take a seat anywhere you like, I will introduce you as soon as class starts." The teacher said.

"Thank you." Lacus said. She looked around the room and watched as every boy with a free seat next to them moved there books of the seats to free them up for her. She noticed once again the boy sitting in the back all alone and nobody seemed to pay any attention to him. His books were already on the ground and she walked over to the seat that was next to him. Many boys faces showed disappointment as she passed up their open seat to continue walking to the back of the room. She stopped next to the lonely looking boy and smile down at him. The boy looked up from his book when he noticed a shadow cast over the typed letters he was reading intently. He looked up at the girl confused.

"Excuse me, do you mind if I sit next to you?" Lacus asked politely.

"Um no of course not, but why do you want to sit by me of all people?" Kira asked confused.

"What ever do you mean?" Lacus asked.

"You mean you haven't heard about me?" Kira asked as murmurs spread through the room as people saw Lacus sat down next to him. The two teens heard snaps of the conversations with comments like "Why would she want to sit by Yamato?" and "She must feel sorry for him."

"Well no, I haven't heard much of anything about you, I'm new here." Lacus said smiling. "Oh how rude of me, I didn't introduce myself, I'm Lacus, Lacus Clyne." She finished extending out her hand while smiling.

"I'm Kira Yamato." Kira said shaking her hand. "But to warn you, you probably shouldn't sit by me. I don't have many friends and I'm kind of an outcast and not many people seem to like me. Most my friends have become somewhat of outcasts because of me as well."

"But I don't understand." Lacus said confused. "Why are don't you have many friends, and why don't many people seem to like you."

"Well it's mostly because I'm the only coordinator at this school, but there are probably other reasons I don't know about."

"But why should being a coordinator make such a difference, I'm a coordinator as well. Whether you are a natural or coordinator shouldn't make a difference, it's your personality that should make the difference, and it is very clear to me Mr. Yamato that you are a very kind individual."

"Thank you Lacus, and please call me Kira."

"OK Kira, but why do people not like you for being a coordinator? Heliopolis is a neutral colony of Orb and accepts both naturals and coordinators alike, and since I have moved here it seems that both coordinators and naturals have lived in peace with no hatred."

"Well when it comes down to it, it's because of my grades. I get very good grades mostly because I study very hard and partly because I am a coordinator but the others believe it's just because I'm a coordinator."

"Oh I see."

"You should probably try and keep the fact that you are a coordinator secret other wise they may see you the same way." Kira said.

"Well they might as well think that because I'm not going to hide who I am." Lacus said smiling at Kira. The bell rang after her comment and Miss Sakura stood up and began to speak.

"Well class as you may have noticed, we have a new student with us today. She moved here from the Plants, her name is Lacus Clyne." She said as the class turned to look at the new girl. "Now today we start a new semester which is the reason for having home room today. Here are your new schedules for the semester." Miss Sakura said while passing out the schedules to the class and making sure to make Kira last. Kira took the paper and looked up at the teacher as she began to talk softly. "Kira, the Plants school system is much different from ours and because of this we couldn't schedule classes for Miss Clyne here. Upon recommendations from her old teachers and her grades we believe that she would be able to keep up with the classes you are in. We would like to have her stay with you for the next week to see if this will work, can you be her guide and help her in your classes?"

"Of course Miss Sakura." Kira replied.

"Thank you." Miss Sakura said and then switched to a louder voice. "Class that is all for homeroom, you may talk until the bell rings for first period."

"So I guess I will be seeing you a lot then Kira." Lacus said happily while smiling at Kira.

"I guess so." Kira said smiling back at her.

"So what class do we have first?" She asked cheerfully.

"Trigonometry." Kira said. "The most boring class of the day." He finished while laughing. The bell rang after he stopped laughing and the two stood up and walked out of the classroom together.

Kira walked down the hall to Lacus's locker. It was an hour or so after school had ended. Lacus had decided to walk home with Kira after he finished helping a teacher. The school was deserted and it seemed that he was the only one around. Crash! A loud noise came from ahead and Kira broke out into a sprint.

"No, please leave me alone!" Lacus screamed. "Please don't, just let me go!" Kira heard her desperate calls for help and he ran even faster covering the last 20 feet in almost a second.

"Come on Miss Lacus just one kiss." A tall muscular teen with blonde hair said as Kira rounded the corner. Kira recognized the school bully that was in his home room. Two boys about the same height stood behind him, both with black hair.

"Please just leave me alone." Lacus said as the blonde haired boy pinned her against the locker.

"LEAVE HER ALONE!" Kira shouted as he ran towards the boy. A fist collided with the blonde teens face as Kira came close. The teen dropped to the ground and his goon like friends helped him up.

"You're gonna pay for that one Yamato." The teen shouted.

"Shut up Sasuke, just leave her alone." Kira said as the two goons grabbed his arms and held him still and defenseless. Sasuke smirked and walked forward punching his right fist into his left hand. He wound up and punched Kira hard in the stomach. Kira attempted to double over in pain but was held up by the two other teens. Sasuke wound up and punched Kira again and continued to repeat the act.

"NO! Stop it please, I'll kiss you, just leave him alone." Lacus yelled. Sasuke turned and smirked at her.

"Now that is more like it." Sasuke said while pinning her against the locker and slowly moving closer to her. Kira saw this and anger overtook him. He looked up and saw a violet seed crash and break in front of his eyes. Suddenly his thoughts were clear and he was more focused than he had ever been. Finding some kind of unknown strength he flipped the two goons off him on to their backs. He then tapped Sasuke on the shoulder right before he was about to kiss Lacus. Sasuke turned around just in time for Kira's fist to collide with his face. Kira picked up Lacus's bag and and grabbed her hand before running out of the school. Once they were far enough away and sure that the three teens couldn't follow them Lacus stopped and pulled Kira in close for a hug.

"Thank you very much Kira." Lacus said.

About a Month Later-

"How does this one look Kira?" Lacus asked as she stepped out of the dressing room. Kira looked up to see Lacus wearing a strapless pink dress that fell down to her ankles. Kira looked at her not believing how good she looked.

"That one looks great." Kira said happily.

"You said that about the last three too." Lacus said laughing slightly.

"Well I don't think it matters what you wear to your cousins wedding, you will still look very pretty." Kira said while blushing a little.

"Thank you Kira." Lacus said while hugging her best friend. "Speaking of the wedding, my father told me something today. He said that if I wanted I could bring a date." Lacus finished and blushed a little realizing what she just said.

"Well have you thought of anyone?" Kira asked Lacus.

"Well, I was thinking maybe you Kira." Lacus said blushing. "I know you probably don't want to but you are so nice and would get along great with my family."

"Yeah I'll go." Kira said smiling.

"Really? Oh Kira!" Lacus said while wrapping Kira in a hug. "Now we have to get something for you to wear."

The Wedding-

"Wasn't that just the prettiest ceremony you have ever seen Kira?" Lacus asked.

"Yes it was very nice." Kira said. A slow song came on and several couples made their way to the dance floor to dance. Kira looked at Lacus and noticed that she looked at the dancing couples. "Do you want to dance Lacus?" Kira asked smiling at her.

"I'd love to Kira." Lacus said smiling. Kira took her hand and walked her out to the dance floor and then put one arm on her waist and held her hand with the other. Lacus looked up into Kira's eyes and felt the same warm feeling she had felt when she first met him, but she still didn't know what the feeling meant.

The two continued to dance for nearly and hour unaware that Lacus's father was watching the two. He slowly walked over to them as they continued to dance and put a hand on his 13 year old daughters shoulder. She let go of Kira's hand and turned smiling towards her father.

"Lacus can I talk to you a minute." Mr. Clyne said

"Of course father." Lacus said and waved to Kira as her father walked her over to an empty table. He pulled out a chair for Lacus and sat in one across from her.

"Lacus I have noticed that you seem to be very fond of that boy, but I thought I should tell you something important." Mr Clyne said. "It looks like I won the position on the Plant Supreme Council and I won't be able to stay here in Heliopolis for long periods of time like I do now. You will be moving back to the plants with me as soon as the semester is over."

"But father what about Kira?" Lacus asked.

"That is another thing I need to talk to you about. While I was in the Plants I talked with Chairman Zala and following the Plants regulations, we arranged a marriage between you and his son."

Last Day of the Semester-

Lunch:

"Kira, do you mind if we eat outside?" Lacus asked her best friend. "I need to talk to you about something."

"Of course Lacus" Kira said while smiling. Lacus heart dropped when she saw his smile, she couldn't help but think how cute he looked and knew that smile didn't make her job any easier. She knew she would have to use every strand of will not to tell Kira her true feelings that she had built for him while in Heliopolis. The two sat down on a bench outside and began to eat. Noticing something was amiss by how his best friend wasn't talking to him he turned to her.

"Kira, I... I.. I have to leave Heliopolis and go to the Plants. My father got the job on the council and I can't stay here." Lacus said. The pain she felt in saying this grew even more when she saw her best friend's sad face. "I will try and come back to visit you as much as I can Kira, but there is something else."

"What is it Lacus?" Kira asked.

"My father has arranged a marriage between me and Patrick Zala's son." Lacus said sadly.

"Oh I see, when will you be leaving?" Kira asked.

"Tonight, I'm so sorry Kira." Lacus said.

"It's OK Lacus, I'm happy for you."

"Will you come say goodbye to me, my shuttle leaves at 8." Lacus said.

"Don't worry I'll be there." Kira said.

00000

Lacus looked at the clock on the wall of the waiting room in the airport, it read 8:09. She bit her lip and scanned the large open area for Kira but saw no sign of him. Her father was talking to the boarding attendants, to ask them to wait just five more minutes. It had taken a lot but Lacus had convinced her father to allow her to say goodbye to Kira. Mr. Clyne walked up to his daughter as she scanned the busy waiting room while standing on her toes to get the best view.

"Lacus they can't wait any longer, we are holding other flights up." Mr. Clyne said.

"Ok Father, I understand." Lacus said sadly and began to walk to the door with her father. Her father opened the door for her and she began to walk through when she heard a familiar voice call out to her.

"Lacus please wait." Kira called out. Lacus turned to see Kira running through the crowd try to get to her. Smiling as he nearly tripped over some one's luggage. Lacus turned to her father, he smiled and nodded before walking out the door leaving her alone to say goodbye to Kira.

"I'm sorry Lacus, I didn't mean to be so late." Kira said. Lacus smiled at him and pulled him in for a hug.

"It's ok Kira, I'm just glad you made it." Lacus said while pulling away and looking into his eyes. The now familiar warm feeling built up in her and she smiled at him. "Don't forget about me Kira, I will try and visit you very soon."

"I won't forget about you." Kira said. He watched as she smiled at his comment and then reached down to pull something off her hand. She held up the ring that Kira remembered seeing her wear almost everyday.

"Take this please Kira." Lacus said smiling. Kira looked at her questioningly before she smiled and nodded her head. "I want you to have something to remember me." She said. Reaching out he took the ring from her. "Goodbye Kira, I will miss you."

"Goodbye Lacus, and thank you for being my friend." Kira said.

"I will always be your friend Kira." Lacus said before hugging him close. She backed up to look him in the eyes again to feel that warm comforting feeling. She smiled at him and for an unknown reason slowly brought her lips to his cheek before leaving the room to get on the shuttle. Kira watched as she boarded the shuttle and began to take off. Her hand waved at him through the window as she took off leaving Kira alone with his hand on his cheek where she had kissed him.

About three years later-

(Aboard the Archangel, Near Earth's Debris Belt)

Kira sat in his room with the door open. Thoughts of the people he had killed continued running through his head. He pulled his legs up on the bed and ran his hands through his head before pulling at his hair. It wasn't long though before his thoughts returned to a pink haired girl he once knew. He pulled out the laptop he had manged to rescue from Morgenrate. He pulled the screen up and turned the laptop on. He waited for the boot up and then typed in the password he had added to the computer. He went to the file that he had played many times since he had joined up with the Archangel to protect his friends. He had come across the video while working for his old professor.

The video opened and a familiar pink haired girl began singing. Kira hadn't seen her since she left Heliopolis and neither had he heard anything from her, until he came across this video. The familiar beat he had listened to so many times began to play.

"In this quite night, I'm waiting for you. Forgetting the past, and dreaming of you. Time passes by and memories fade but time can't erase the love that we've made, and the stars in the sky that I wish upon can't bring you back to my side. Thought you are not here with me I dream of the day when we will meet again. Hold me close, so deep in your heart, I will find you no matter where I have to go..." Lacus sang on the video. The song ended and a reporter walked to Lacus on stage with a microphone.

"Miss Lacus, you told me before the show that you wrote this song for some one." The reporter said. "Is that correct?"

"Yes it is." Lacus said kindly.

"Could it be for fiance?" The reporter asked.

"No, I wrote this song for a friend that I met three years ago in Heliopolis. This song is an apology to him that I haven't been able to visit and to tell him that I still remember him and will try to visit him soon." The video closed and Kira pushed the screen down while turning the laptop off.

While Kira was watching the video and listening to Lacus sing and give her little speech about him he didn't notice Miriallia step into the doorway. She watched him as he watched the video with a smile on his face. When the video ended he shut the laptop down and put it back under his bunk. He looked up to see Mir smiling at him from the doorway, and Kira smiled back at her.

"Still watching that video?" Mira asked Kira.

"Yes." Kira said.

"Kira, I wouldn't get your hopes up. I know Lacus is very nice, but she is the most popular singer in ZAFT Kira, she will have a very tough time finding the time to visit. That's not to mention after what happened at Heliopolis how would she know where you are? And she is engaged now, to your friend Athrun no less. Kira I'm not trying to hurt you or anything like that, but I just don't want you to get your hopes up." Mir said while sitting down next to Kira.

"I know Mir, I just can't stop thinking about her." Kira sad. Mir looked at him with caring eyes and nodded.

"Well Captain Ramius wanted me to come to ask you to head to the Strike to help move supplies on to the Archangel." Mir said.

"Oh yea of course I'll be there." Kira said.

00000

Kira watched as the yellow maintenance mobile armors piloted by many of the Archangels crew and his friends. They worked together to load important supplies like food and large chunks of ice for water. Kira flew around a large chunk of rock to see a fairly new looking ship floating in the debris. The ship was severely damaged and there was no way it could support any kind of life. He looked a little to the right where he saw a black and gold Jinn. He searched the strikes databanks to see that it was a two seater reconnaissance Jinn.

"What is a reconnaissance Jinn doing all the way out here?" Kira asked himself as he raised the Strike's beam rifle to aim at the Jinn. "Please just turn around and leave." Kira said and almost as if it were following his orders the Jinn turned around and started to fly away but at that moment one of the yellow mobile armors flew up in front of the Strike and began talking over the radio. Kira didn't catch what the pilots said but the Jinn's pilot must have because it turned around and aimed its rifle at the mobile armor. Kira took aim and fired off three shots. One shot missed to the right, the next hit the leg, and the third hit the cockpit. "Damn it, why couldn't you have just not seen them?" He asked into space.

"Thanks Kira." Tolle's voice rang over the radio.

The work continued for a little longer until Kira saw a blinking red beacon in the direction of the ship he saw earlier. He piloted the Strike over to the spot to see a single person lifeboat. He looked at it questioningly wondering what to do.

"What is a lifeboat doing all the way out here?" Kira said while grabbing hold of the pod with the Strike's arms. He piloted back to the Archangel to drop the pod off.

00000

A group of crew members including Mu, Murrue, Murdoch, and Kira stood in a sort of funnel in front of the doors to the pod. Several crew members held guns and had them pointed at the pod unaware of what might be inside.

"OK, I'm opening it." Mr. Murdoch shouted alerting the crew of what he was about to do. The soldiers with guns gripped them tighter as the man prepared to open it. Air rushed out of the pod as the doors opened to reveal a dark space. There was no movement until a small pink ball shaped robot came hoping out. Everyone watched the robot as it went down the line then turned as a girl stepped out of the pod. She wore a white blouse with detachable sleeves and gold stitching as well as a large purple skirt. Pink hair flowed down to her waist as she floated out of the pod. She continued down the line floating above them as everyone stared at her dumbfounded.

"L-L-Lacus." Kira stuttered. The pink haired girl heard a familiar voice calling her name. She turned to see Kira with an outstretched hand to help her down. She grabbed his hand and pulled herself towards him.

"Kira!!!" She shouted excitedly as she wrapped him in a large hug.

So what will Lacus think about Kira now that he fights with the Earth Forces and that he fights against his best friend and her Fiance. Will she accept her old friend or be scared of what he has become? Please R&R no matter what you think let me know, even if you think my writing is absolutely terrible and I should be shot for attempting to write. More to come soon but please let me know what you think.
