Wild Heart

Chapter 1: The Princess & First Meetings

Cagalli Yula Hibiki climbs down the stairs and went to the grand hall and saw her currently boyfriend, a guy with purple hair color and pair of blue eyes enters the house. His name is Yunna Roma Seiran.

“Hime!” Yunna called her name as he enters and saw Cagalli came down the stairs and went to her and kiss her cheeks.

“Hello, Yunna.” Cagalli greeted her boyfriend as he went to her and kiss her cheeks and smiles.

Yunna gives her a bouquet of flowers and Cagalli received it and put it on the center table.

“They’re lovely.” She said smiling.

Yunna look at his girlfriend from up and down and his brow raise as he looks at Cagalli. Very tight jeans in velvet black and a tank top blouse with the same color as the jeans with a silver decoration on the collar.

“Why are you wearing that?” he asked with distaste in his voice.

“Why? Doesn’t look good to me?” she asked as she turn around as a model in front of Yunna.

“You’re wearing such a vulgar clothe.” He said straightly.

Cagalli’s eyes rolls up ceiling ward and falls her self on the couch. She’s about to say something when her mother Via Hibiki descends from the stairs.

“Hello, Yunna.” Via greets him with a smile on her face.

“How’s your mom?”

“Good evening ma’am.” Yunna greets back.

“Mom’s ok. She and Dad were together at Ginza..” He continued.

Via smiled at Yunna.

“Cagalli, did you told to Yunna that you’re gonna out with Dearka?” she asked Cagalli as she looks at her then glance at Yunna.

“It’s too early mom.” Cagalli replied and look at the wall clock.

“It’s almost seven.” Via shrugs her shoulders and went to the dinning room.

“You’re going out?” Yunna asked as he looks at Cagalli.

“Have I arrived at a wrong time?” he asked.

“You’re going out with someone and with that kind of attire?” he continued to ask.

“Oh, it’s my cousin. It’s Dearka. You know him, don’t you? I’ve already introduce him to for some other times right? At Shibu…”

“You’re going out with him?” he cut Cagalli’s saying with matching wide eyes.

“Actually, It was Dearka who wants me to go with at the party where he gonna attends to. He had no partner and I’m the only one, who’s available, so…” She explained and shrugs her shoulders.

“Why you didn’t tell me?” he said with accusation in his voice.

Cagalli shook his shoulders and smiles sweetly.

“We’re just in a relationship as ‘Boyfriend and Girlfriend’ not in a relationship as an engaged couple or married couple. Not all the times that I’ll tell you all my schedule or where I am going to.”

“Precisely, Cagalli. You’re my GIRL and its natural that I know what’s your schedule or where are you going. Like how I tell you about my schedule. And to think that you’re going out with another man tonight without even telling me is beyond my understanding.” Yunna said slightly raising his voice.

She pressed her body to her boyfriend and put her hand on his shoulder.

“Yunna, Dearka is not a different person. He’s family. So don’t worry.” She said in calm and sweet voice and plays the collar of his shirt.

“Besides, I’m doing my social obligation on Dad’s business associate.”

Yunna’s face softens. He held Cagalli’s hand on his shoulder and hugs her.

“You can’t put away from me for being ‘jealous’ from different men. Hime.” He said and let her go and look at her seriously.

“As I remembered that this Dearka is a handsome guy and…”

“He’s not interested with me.” Cagalli said and smiled. Thinking how she can explain to him that she and Dearka were cousins. Yunna is the only son of the Seiran family. His father is working as one of the Representative members of the government officials and also came from the rich society. They’re such a conservative parents. One they found out something they go into hysterics.

And now, Dearka asked and invite her to be his partner at the wedding anniversary party of Mu and Murrue la Flaga. She hated parties and social functions. If it’s not important, she’ll avoid coming in any party. But she can’t say ‘NO’ from her cousin.

She blew at Yunna’s ear and he gasped. How easily Cagalli turn him on. Especially if she knows that he’s mad.

“Don’t fuss, Yunna. I’m a one man woman. And of course, you love me don’t you? Mom’s likes you as my boyfriend.” She whisper to his ear and blew his ear again.

“Stop it, Cagalli.” He said in ragged voice and look around the house.

“It’s kinda embarrassing from the maids.”

She rolls her eyes ceiling ward and let him go.

“Why, Yunna, you’re a prude man!”

“You called a man ‘Prude’ who has sense of propriety?” he said making his brows meet and look at Cagalli.

“I don’t understand you, Cagalli. I hated this kind of displays and I invite you many times in my pad but you refused it then you tease me in public.”

Before Cagallli can speak, Dearka clear his throat from the door.

“Ready, brat?” he asked.

“Oh, here you are.” She said to her cousin and went to him.

“Dearka, you know Yunna, right?” she asked.

“Yeah…” he said and slightly nodded to Yunna.

“I’d better be going, Cagalli.” Yunna said to his girlfriend.

“Bye, buddy.” He said to Dearka who nodded to him but didn’t look then left the Hibiki mansion.

“I can’t believe that you just like father, Dearka.” She said pouting when Yunna left.

“What do you mean?”

“This is the second time I introduce Yunna to you but treat him too cold and formal to accept my boyfriend.”

His brows met.

“What do you want me to do, hug your boyfriend? To tell you that frankly, brat, I don’t like him.”

“Why? Did Yunna show something rude to you? As I remember you’re more impolite in the way of facing him.” She said frowning.

“I just don’t like him as a person.” He said in casual.

“I even don’t like him for my cousin. As simple as that.”

“Dearka!?” she high her voice to her cousin.

“Dearka is from a well known family. Rich and soon to be politician.”

“A weakling like that?” he said.

“And look on how he dressed, he looks like came from a seminary or something.” He said in amused tone and look where Yunna gone too.

Cagalli’s eyes narrow.

“You have no rights to insult my boyfriend, Dearka. I don’t know where I should put on the three of you, Kira and Yzak. I boyfriend a rock star in Houston then you three dislike him. Yzak wants me to put inside a box and package me to make sure that I’m going home with you three. Then, here and got a decent boyfriend, then insulting him. I can’t wait what Kira and Yzak would say about him.” She said angrily. Then she hurriedly added.

“And to think I really love this guy”

“Love him? My Ass,” his eyes roll up ceiling ward. He’s not worrying to use that kind of words to his cousin. Cagalli is used to it with those kinds of words.

She grows up in a ranch full of swearing ranchers. Just don’t add her brother and her two cousins. And his cousin would swear to her heart’s content if she wants too.

“You only like him, brat, because you can easily lead him around by the nose.”

“OH, I can’t believe you’re saying that!!” she said look irritated.

“You’re asking me a favor to go with you at the party.”

“Admit it or not, that’s the truth. You can easily trick Yunna with your tricks.”

“Well, you’re bloody wrong! I love him.”

“You wouldn’t like it if I’m believing what you said.” He said grinning then gently taps her face.

“Coz I’m making it sure that he wont come here ever again.” He said and turns around to inform Via.

Cagalli left looking frustrated. Oh well, she hated her brother and cousins in those times. All three of them are overbearing. She looks like that she’s not using her brain.

After three hours Cagalli and Dearka came at the mansion of the La Flaga. Dearka introduce Cagalli to Shinn Asuka-Zala and Andrew Waltfeld who were the important business associates of Ulen Hibiki, Cagalli’s father.

The two were dancing when a man with dark blue hair and pair of emerald eyes enters the mansion with a beautiful girl with short brown hair and pair of sapphire eyes. Dearka talks to Cagalli and ask her to make some plan so that Athrun don’t dance with Miriallia, the girl get the attention of the guy.

In a few minutes Cagalli ask Athrun to dance with her.

“You’re not that really that old for dancing, right?” she teased him while his jaw flex on what she just said.

Athrun stands up and inform Miriallia that he’ll dance with Cagalli. In few seconds he and Cagalli were at the dance floor and danced.

“Gosh, is that your style here in the dance floor?” she said while looking at him.

“Anyone can walk at the center of us, ah?” she said in amused teasing tone.

“Oh? So what’s the right way to dance, Miss Hibiki?” Athrun asked without any emotions.

“You can call me Cagalli, Athrun.” She said and pressed her body against his, teasing him. She don’t know if its just a dream or something when she feels that he gasped or just came from the music.

Athrun was smaller than Dearka in 5 inches. Then she looks up at him and speaks in the way that her lips nearly touch his’.

“I’m amused that you asked me how to dance properly.” She asked huskily. Her warm and sweet breath fanning his mouth.

“Where have you been hiding?”

“And when have you learned being so vulgar and permissive, young lady?” he answered in a formal way though anger flickered in his eyes.

She gasped and before she can think of something, Miriallia is already at their side.

“Excuse me but I’m claiming my partner back.”

Athrun was amused smiling and let Cagalli go in her big surprised and he dance with Miriallia and circled her at the center of the dance floor.

In her frustrated and fiercely thoughts she went back where she and Athrun left Dearka who also look angry.

“I can’t believe it, Dearka!” she said angrily at her cousin.

“I have never been humiliated in my entire life! He literally left me in the middle of the dance floor!”

“You forfeit Buster.” He said angrily. His stallion Buster which Cagalli ask too exchange for his favor that he ask to her. Making Athrun doesn’t dance with Miriallia.

“To hell with Buster!” she gritted her teeth in anger. She can’t raise her voice due of the people around her.

“Damn that macho illiterate!”

She sits angrily. The she look surprised when someone clears his throat besides her.

“May I dance with you?”

When she look up at the person who it is a guy with light blue hair and pair of aqua eyes looking down at her smiling.

She’s mad but she can’t sit a side and sulk to waste of time. She forced a smile and stands up.

“Sure”

While dancing her eyes glace at Athrun. If glances can kill, the man could lie on the floor lifeless. But the music hasn’t finish, Athrun and Miriallia went out of the dance floor.

“I’m Auel Neider, what’s yours?” the guy said.

“Cagalli.”

“Am I right on my guess that you’re the daughter of Ulen Hibiki?” he said smiling at her.

“The Hibiki Princess?”

She shrugs her shoulder. She rarely went to the parties since last year when she came back from America. But the paparazzi see nothing but her. And to think that she doesn’t care on what she looks like when it comes to them. And she evens doesn’t care when she was once put in the papers when she spills a glass of wine to a famous socialite that makes her angry.

The boyfriend of the said socialite meets him at the party that she attends too that time and he doesn’t leave Cagalli. The socialite gets mad at her and insults her in front of many people. And being as short tempered as the Hibiki men, she pick a glass of wine up and spill it into the socialite’s face and starts screaming. She left the party without a word and surprised from the other guest at the party.

She wished that her father, Ulen didn’t read the newspapers at the next day from the last night scene. But it fails. She hasn’t waking up yet when Ulen came already in her room followed by Via who look worried.

“What is this, Cagalli!” Ulen throws the newspaper on the bed. She moaned and buried her face on her pillow.

“Dad, I’m still sleepy, please…”

“Do you know who’s that lady which you spill wine on her face, ha?”

“Who cares if she was the Queen of Sheba. She insulted me.” She moans and buries her face more on her pillow, hoping her father would leave.

“She’s the daughter of one of our important customers, Cagalli!”

“Consider that client lost, Dad.”

When she thinks that she cant get back to sleep and her father wont leave. She sits up and yawns.

“She was being vengeful coz Kira didn’t take her before.”

Ulen look up at the ceiling and touch his nape. Trying to control his temper, Via sits on the side of the bed.

“Cagalli, darling, why did you have to take her like that? You should avoid her.”

Cagalli yawns again and in a bored tone.

“Mom, I haven’t committed murder, have I?”

Via didn’t answer when Ulen speaks again.

“You’re my only girl but you beat your brother and cousin that-that makes me mad for bringing trouble and scandal!”

“Dad, you don’t like it that I’m just standing there and listen to her damn insults.” She said.

“The papers said that Flay tries to get the attention of her boyfriend who you didn’t let go.” He continued in a high tone.

“She called me a bitch and of course coz she’s the one who left there, and get the sympathy of the reporter.” She bored answered and went up from her bed.

“And correction please, I’m not the one didn’t let go of her not so good boyfriend. It’s the boyfriend who didn’t let go of me and always follows me.” She rolls her eyes ceiling ward.

“That looks like that I’m gonna go out with him and be my boyfriend.”

“Cagalli, this is not the first scandal that you make after you came back from America!” Ulen said angrily and raising his hands on the air and walks around the room.

“Two weeks ago, you slap your escort at the lobby of a hotel.”

Cagalli sighs.

“Dad what can I do if the society reporters see nothing but me? And I cannot keep on defending myself coz they follow me around coz I’m your and mom’s daughter.” She said wearily.

“Why can’t you act like a lady, Cagalli. I already have kira and I don’t need another person in you. Control your temper..”

“I wonder where I got it.” She said in innocent tone. She walks towards to the bathroom.

Ulen’s chest rose up and down and glance on his wife.

“Talk to your daughter and give her advice or something. You spoiled her that why she acts like that.”

Via’s brows rose.

“Look who’s talking.”

He’s about to open his mouth and say something but shut again. He better go out of the room and so that his temper didn’t put out to his wife.
