[ Action; ]

[ Mister Pink the Jigglypuff was at it again and this time he fancies himself to be a movie director with his assistant Liana the Mawile as the cameraperson. Liana was fond of Kira, but Mister Pink was incredibly jealous. He wanted to expose to the world that Kira Yamato was a bad person and didn't deserve Lacus.

Kira and Lacus had always been very private people. Those who know Lacus can probably tell that she values her privacy and is incredibly conservative. But because Mister Pink knew their schedule so well, he came up with a plan. Every morning outside the inn, Lacus and Kira would exit and most of the time Lacus looked like she was about to cry.

Mister Pink didn't approve of anyone who made his mistress cry! He was determined to expose Kira Yamato for the evil that he is!

While Liana --- seems to be there because it seemed like fun. ]

[ Video; ]

[ The scene starts out very pixelated, like it was a footage from a very old movie. Complete with background music. Two people exit from the inn. A brunette boy and a pink-haired girl. And the dialogue ... sounds like something you would definitely hear in a movie.

It was Lacus and Kira of course. Right on schedule. Lacus looked like she was very troubled, while Kira was trying his best to reassure and comfort her with his arms wrapped around her. ]

Kira, I don't want to lose you again. Not now ... not so soon ...

It will hurt more if I don't do anything to protect you all ...

... being here with you like this, makes me very happy.

Kira ...

Wait for me ... I'll be back soon. I'll find a way to bring us back home ... to everyone ... together.

Yes ...

[ Since showing public display of affection had never been Lacus's style, what comes next will probably shock a few people. This will be the first time Lacus Clyne will ever be seen kissing someone. This was something she reserved for when the two of them were completely alone.

Lacus wanted to introduce Kira, her boyfriend to her friends ... but this certainly wasn't the way she wanted to go about it. ]

[Forget a video response. Athrun headed down to the lobby. He hated to interrupt such a private moment, but...]

Hey, you two? Someone's, uh...well, trying to make this less private.

[ Depending on how quick he is ... they should still be kissing by the time he reaches the lobby.

When he entered, Lacus quickly moved away. She was clearly embarrassed being caught kissing her boyfriend intimately. It was like being caught by her brother, which is not very far off. ]

Athrun? What do you mean?

[... well this was certainly embarrassing. Though Kira's glad it's just Atrun who interrupted them and not someone they didn't know.

Though what he said...]

What's wrong, Athrun?

[Athrun holds up his PokéGear. If Kira and Lacus look at the screen, they'll likely understand -- unless a certain Jigglypuff turns off Lacus's PokéGear.]

Huh?

[ What she saw on screen was Kira and herself. And the expression on screen mimicked the horrified expression that she knew that she had on now.

That only meant one thing. At the thought, she turned incredibly red and covered her lips before leaning her head against Kira's shoulder. ]

Kira ...

[... if only it had just been Athrun. Well, Kira still remains calm, even if his expression is more serious. He looks around, trying to figure out where the video is filmed from--

Ah.]

Lacus. [He nods towards the two Pokémon that hold her gear.]

[Athrun turns off the video on his PokéGear. He has no use for it at the moment.]

Looks to me like another case of a Pokémon cameraman. I wonder why this time...

[ They have been spotted! The two pokemon quickly dropped the camera and ran away. Of course they will be back in time for dinner ... but they didn't want to see Ms. Lacus upset with them until then. ]

How embarrassing ... I am so sorry, Kira. I am sure you never wanted to be remembered that way.

It's okay. [Well, he would have wanted a fair warning before something like that, but sometimes it's not possible, is it?] It's not like it will but us into any danger.

Yeah. Still, I think some Pokémon are in for a bit of discipline later.

I will take care of it ...

[ Then turning to Athrun. ] ... how much ... did you see?

From the moment the two of you exited the inn.

Then you ---

[ Yes, Lacus. He saw. Now watch her cheeks become completely pink. ]

...Sorry.

[He understands how embarrassing this must be for her.]

Don't be ridiculous, Athrun. There is no need to apologize.

I should have been more careful. I suppose my constant worry has kept me much too distracted.

Yeah, don't worry about it, Athrun. [Kira'a thoughts are more on the 'the whole network saw it' than 'Athrun saw it' now. Not really the way he wanted to be remembered.] We should really keep an eye on the gears.

You should, especially since these are our lifelines when we're traveling. The only time I ever relinquish mine is when I'm challenging a gym leader and someone not in the area wants to watch.
