CHAPTER 7
~*~*~
Sally
stretched in her bed as she awoke to start another busy day.
The
last thing Sally remembered was sitting at her desk going over Milliardo’s test
results. She got out of bed and
realized she was still in the clothes she wore yesterday. She walked into the kitchen, started the
coffee maker and began her morning stretches.
‘Now
I remember…Wufei’
and a small smile crept across her face.
~~*~~*~~*~~*~~*~~*~~*~~
Wufei
sat crossed legged in the middle of his living room meditating.
‘I
don’t believe I did that. I cannot give
in to that weakness’
he chided himself.
Last
night he went to the medical wing to verify if the rumor that Milliardo had
returned with Preventer Viper who turned out to be Duo’s twin brother.
Wufei
cringed, ‘Two Maxwell’s’.
He
walked into the ER and saw Noin asleep with her head resting on the bed holding
the man’s hand. He didn’t need to see
anymore. That was definitely Milliardo. He left without saying a word and began
walking.
The
next thing he knew he was in front of Sally’s office door. When he knocked on the door no one answered
so he went in to see if she was there.
It was not uncommon for Sally to fall asleep at her desk when she was
concerned for a patient. He smiled to
himself. That’s one of the things he
admired about her…her dedication to her patients, coworkers and friends. She looked so peaceful, so…beautiful as she
slept. He moved her chair back and
picked her up not wanting to wake her.
She was startled at first when he picked her up but when she realized it
was Wufei she relaxed, put her arms around his neck and snuggled close to him
as her carried her to her quarters.
When
he arrived at her quarters he opened the door and carried her to her bedroom
and laid her down on her bed. He
removed her arms from around his neck and pulled the covers up around her. She whispered his name at the loss of his
body heat. He sat on the edge of the
bed and watched her sleep.
‘She
is so beautiful and her lips look so soft, so inviting.’
Wufei
brushed a stray strand of hair off of her face and leaned forward to brush his
lips against hers. Sally wrapped her
arms around him and began kissing him sucking on his bottom lip. He parted them and slipped his tongue into
her mouth. She tasted like warm honey,
rich and sweet. Before he could stop
himself he had deepened the kiss. A
small moan escaped her throat that brought him crashing back to reality and his
actions. He abruptly broke off the kiss
and found Sally still asleep much to his relief. He made a quick exit to the exercise room where he took out all
of his frustrations on the punching bag.
‘I
am not falling in love with that Onna!
’ He
scolded himself as he continued to meditate.
Now if he could convince his heart otherwise.
~~*~~*~~*~~*~~*~~*~~*~~
<<<<She lay in her bed slumbering while the morning
sunlight reflected off of her caramel skin.
A man with aquamarine eye’s crossed the room and sat on the edge of the
bed. He bent down and kissed his
sleeping beauty awake. She slowly began
to stir and she wrapped her arms around him joining him in their kiss. He broke off the kiss and began placing soft
kisses on her neck.
“I love the way your hair smells Nai-Nai.”
She smiled as she cuddled closer to him. She loved how it felt to be in his arms.
“It reminds me of Bacon.”
“Bacon?” she said Prussian eyes now open.
“Eggs”, he said softly as he continued to kiss her neck.
“Eggs?!” she replied widening her eyes.
“Mmmm and Coffee” He purred in her ear.
“COFFEE!!!” she shouted as she jumped out of his arms.
>>>>>>>>
Janai
jumped up out of her bed landing with a thud on the floor.
“Damn
hormones.” she said as she got up off of the floor.
‘Bacon?
Eggs? Coffee?’
As
her mind began to work she realized that she did smell bacon, eggs and coffee.
‘Wait
a minute. If you’re in here then who the hell is cooking. Besides your cooking never smells this
good.’
She
grabbed her gun from under her pillow, for no good spy slept without one,
started for the door and opened it.
“Damn
it” she shut her door remembering she was only in her undies, grabbed the first
t-shirt she saw and put it on. She then
reopened the door and headed for her kitchen gun poised to shoot first and ask
questions later.
“Good
Morning Nai-Nai” a cheery voice said.
Janai
let her gun drop to the floor and just stared.
Quatre felt her pain then she quickly hid it.
“Did
I upset you?” he asked as he approached her.
She
remained motionless.
“Nai-Nai
are you alright?” he asked concern in his voice.
He
felt another wave of pain coming from her hit him.
“My
mother used to call me Nai-Nai.” She replied in a soft voice with a faraway
look in her eyes.
“I’m
sorry. I won’t call you that anymore.”
He said placing his arms around her in a tender hug.
“It’s
alright. You can call me that.”
She
returned his hug lost in memories of long ago.
He felt so warm and comforting.
They stayed that way for a few minutes.
When the memories passed she realized she was in Quatre’s arms and
gently pushed him away. She felt his
twinge of hurt before he could cover it up.
She didn’t mean to hurt his feelings but she wasn’t about to tell him.
“Don’t
worry about it.” he said as he turned his attention back to the stove.
“How
did you…”
“I’m
an empath just as you are. Though I can
tell you have much greater psychic abilities than I have.” He said as he turned
the bacon and removed the eggs.
“I’m
also telepathic but I don’t use it on those I consider friends.”
Quatre
turned and gave her a questioning look.
“Oh
alright. I use it on Heero but that’s
only because he so closed up it’s easier for me to read his mind than to pry it
out of him.”
Jai
then remembered why she came into her kitchen in the first place.
“Quatre”
she said as she picked up her gun from the floor, “what the hell ARE you doing
here?”
He
looked at her and smiled, ”I’m cooking you breakfast.” He removed the bacon from the skillet and
placed it on a plate beside the eggs.
“Why?”
“Because
Kel says your cooking sucks”
“That’s
true but I don’t think that’s why you came.”
“Think
of it as my first gift to you. Nice shirt by the way.”
She
looked down and smiled. She was wearing
on of her goofy shirts she usually wore to cheer up her sisters. It said, “Well I’ll be Gun Damned”
“Is this a private party?” Heero
asked as he entered the kitchen and took in his sisters’ attire.
The t-shirt she wore barely covered her bottom. Quatre followed Heero’s gaze and
stared. Jai looked down and for the first
time noticed how short her shirt was.
She turned on her heel and marched back to her room.
Quatre recovered from the shock and reached for three plates. “Breakfast
Heero?”
“Did Jai cook it?”
“No. I did”
“Then yes I would like some” He said as he pulled out a chair and sat
down at the table.
“Is her cooking really that bad?” Quatre asked as he removed the
biscuits from the oven.
Heero leaned closer to Quatre and in a low tone said “I’d rather eat
Gundamium than her cooking. Its much
easier to chew and it has a lot more flavor.”
“I HEARD THAT!!!!”
Both men smiled at each other as they began to fix their plates.
Back in her bedroom Jai quickly showered and went to her closet to find
something comfortable to wear. She by passed
all of the suits and dress clothes Relena made her buy after they burned
Relena’s dull wardrobe of those ugly long pleated skirts and high collar
shirts. Relena said all company
executives should have an executive wardrobe but as far as Jai was concerned it
was their company they could wear what the hell they wanted to. She pulled out a pair of baggy blue jeans,
white cotton tank top and an aquamarine oversized mans button down shirt. She
put on the jeans, tank top and the shirt leaving it unbuttoned and walked over
to her vanity. She pulled her hair back
into a ponytail and checked her appearance in the mirror.
As she looked at her reflection the color of her shirt reminded her of
Quatre’s eyes and her mind drifted back to her dream. It was so real. In the
dream he called her Nai-Nai and he did so in her kitchen. Her nickname coming from his lips sounded
like a soothing melody. His embrace in
her dream was so tender and so it was in the kitchen. She never wanted to leave his warm body. In his strong arms she
felt sheltered and protected like there was no hurt or pain he couldn’t
ease. She stared at her reflection and
narrowed her eyes glaring at something much deeper than her face, something
inside her.
“You are dead and I intend for you to stay that way.” she said out loud
and walked away.
After breakfast was finished and the dishes were done, Quatre made his
way to the door.
“Thanks for breakfast Quatre.” Heero said taking a sip from his coffee
cup.
“Yeah who knew a guy raised with a house full of servants could cook
that good.” Jai added finishing off her tea.
“You’re welcome.” he replied with a smile as he left.
As soon as she thought Quatre was not coming back she launched herself
at Heero giving him a big bear hug, which he returned.
“I’ve been waiting a four days to get my brotherly hug”, she said with a
grin as she let him go.
This was their private moment.
No one knew this side of Heero existed and he wanted to keep it that way
and she respected his decision to do so.
“So when are you going to tell Relena?”
Heero knew she would get around to asking that especially after what
happened at the target range.
“I’m waiting for the right moment.”
“Liar. What are you afraid of? She won’t reject you, Heero”
He walked over to a picture Jai has of Relena and lightly ran his
fingers across it.
Jai walked up behind Heero and placed her hand on his shoulder, “Relena
loves you just as you are but don’t take my word for it, go ask her. Heero.
If you don’t fess up soon, you’re gonna lose your chance.”
He turned to face her after she spoke.
“Seven years is a long time to love someone thinking they don’t love you
in return. She’s going to move on with
her life. She prefers to do it with you
but she will do it without you.”
She turned to leave him with his thoughts.
“What about Quatre, Jai? He’s
falling for you but I think you already sensed that being an empath
yourself. He’ll never hurt you.”
Jai stopped, “But I’ll hurt him and I can’t bear that. I am incapable of loving him like a woman is
supposed to love a man.”
“Why?”
“That part of me is dead. ” she said as she reached for the door.
“How?”
“Murdered.” She said as she left a bewildered Heero.
~*~*~
Hilde
awoke to Taylor Dane “I’ll always love you” playing on her CD player. She was wearing one of Duo’s shirts that she
took before she left him on L2. It
always smelled like him and she would pretend he had his arms around her. She held the picture of Duo closer to her as
she swayed to the rhythm of the music and singing the words from her heart.
And I’ll always love you
For the rest of my days
You have won my heart and my soul
With your sweet and sexy ways
She
thought of his boyish grin and puppy dog eyes he gave her when he wanted to get
his way.
You gave me hope
When I needed someone near
As
they held each other while the nightmares subsided.
You bring me happiness
Everyday of every year
The
feeling of joy every time he smiled at her.
And I’ll always love you
For all that you are
You have made my life complete
You’re my lucky star
The
loneliness she no longer felt whenever he was around. With him she was complete.
You are the one
That I’ve been searching for
To
the very first time those violet eyes stared at her above the top of his sunglasses.
You are my everything
Tell me who could ask for more
How
she loved him just as he was. She
wouldn’t change him for the world.
And I’ll always love you
Honey this will never end
I need you by my side baby
You’re my lover my friend
Oh, my friend
How
he was always there to cheer her up when she need it.
(Sax solo)
She
continued to sway to the music as a figure watched her from the shadows.
You gave my world
A thrill I’ve never known
And filled my evil heart
With a love to call my own
How
her heart would swell as she watched him while he slept.
And I’ll always love you
You must know how much I do
You can count on me forever
And I will take good care of you
When
he returned to repair his Gundam and had lost his focus.
And I’ll always love you
I’m so happy that you’re mine
Tears
streamed down her face as the bittersweet line reminded her that he was indeed
not hers.
And I’ll always love you yes
Until the end of time.
She
fell to her knees as the pain and hurt of him not loving her in return caused
her to sob uncontrollably. The door
silently closed behind her.
~~*~~*~~*~~*~~*~~*~~*~~
Duo
leaned up against Hilde’s door. He had
come to ask her why she had left him.
As he entered her quarters he heard her singing with so much passion he
didn’t want to interrupt her. He had
heard her sing before but never as intense as this. She put her whole being into every word. It was almost as if she was singing to
him. When he heard the words she was
singing his heart constricted in a way he didn’t understand. He watched her sway to the rhythm of the
music wearing one of his shirts clutching the picture she took of him with
Deathscythe.
‘I’ll
always love you’
The
words she had so passionately sung played over and over in his head.
‘Hilde
loves me?’
“One
of the most precious gifts is the gift of love. The worst feeling in the world is knowing you’re not loved in
return.” Jai said as she walked pass
Duo to enter Hilde’s quarters.
Duo
was frozen in his tracks. He watched as
Jai wrapped her arms around Hilde and Hilde cried her heart out on her
shoulder. He headed outside. He needed to walk in fresh air to sort
though his thoughts and feelings.
~~*~~*~~*~~*~~*~~*~~*~~
Quatre
was on his way to Trowa’s quarters. As he
walked, his thoughts wondered back to Jai.
He didn’t know why he called her “Nai-Nai”. But since she doesn’t mind, he thought he would continue to do
so. It would be his “pet name” for her
and only he would call her by that name.
When he held her in his arms it took all of his control not to kiss all
of her pain away. There was something
about her that kept drawing him to her.
He thought back to when he said he’d feel sorry for the man that falls
in love with her. But now what was he
going to do since he was that man. He
felt a part of her was reaching out to him as he held her and other part of her
was fighting it back. What she didn’t
know was a part of him was reaching out for her too and he was determined to
make contact.
~~*~~*~~*~~*~~*~~*~~*~~
TROWA! TROWA!
***Banging on the door***
TROWA!! TROWA!!
***More banging on the door***
Trowa jolted out of his recliner knocking over the empty bottle of Jack
Daniels. His eyes were bloodshot and
his head felt like he’d been hit with a blast from Zero’s buster rifle. As soon as he entered his quarters after the
Kellee “incident” he immediately began to trash his quarters and drink himself
into a stupor. Every time he closed his
eyes he could see the passion in Kellee’s eyes and feel the ache in his
groin. He was so close to taking her
last night and then in the middle of their passion filled frenzy he heard
Quatre shouting.
“WHAT THE HELL ARE YOU DOING WITH MY SISTER TROWA?!”
Then he realized what he was doing and to whom. She was an annoying, smart-ass, blabbermouth
brat. Why in the cosmos did he start
making out with her? Why did he love
it? Why did he want to go find her and
pick up where they’d left off?
TROWA! TROWA! OPEN THE DOOR!!!
***Continued banging on the door***
His head began pounding to the beat of the banging on the door.
‘I’m gonna kill whoever the hell that is.’
He kicked the over turned furniture and other causalities of his rant
out of his way as he made his way to the door.
He swung open the door, ‘Damn’
Quatre’s eye bulged out of his head as he took in the sight of his best
friend and what used to be his quarters.
“What
the hell happened in here!?” he asked as he made his way through the rubble.
“SSSSSSHHHHHHHH!!!” was all Trowa said holding his hung over head.
Quatre spied the empty Jack Daniels bottle and held it up.
“What’s going on Trowa?” Quatre asked worried. Trowa was one of the neatest people he knew and his quarter’s was
in shambles. He’d also been drinking and
he was only a social drinker.
‘How
do you tell you best friend you nearly had sex with his sister, on a wall, in
the hallway and STILL wanted too.’ He mentally kicked himself for
the last thought. So he decided to lie.
“Nothing.” he replied as he started the coffee pot and
reached for the aspirin.
“You’re lying, Trowa”
“Why don’t you tell us what happened between you and
Kellee.”
Both men turned to see Heero standing in the doorway with
Duo, Jase and Wufei surveying the damage.
“Yup.” Duo said, “Only a woman can cause this kind of
destruction”
“Don’t worry about Quatre” Heero said, “If he tries anything
I’ll just shoot him for ogling my sister…twice.” and shot a death glare at
Quatre.
Quatre winced but still shot a glare at Trowa. Jase chuckled
as he took a sip of the orange juice he grabbed from Catherine’s.
“Well if Quatre can’t do anything to you for what ever you
did with his sister then you can’t do anything to Jase for sleeping with
yours.” Wufei said nonchalant.
“Ppppppppffffffffffffffffff”
Jase spit out his juice and choked on what didn’t come out
as all eyes focused on him and Trowa had the look of death in his.
Jase glared at Wufei, “What the hell are you trying do? Get me killed?”
“As loud as you two were I’m surprised they didn’t hear
you.”
“So what happened between you and Kellee?” Duo asked
changing the subject. He just got his
brother back he didn’t want to lose him so soon plus he was getting
uncomfortable being in a room full of death glares.
“Things got out of hand.” Trowa said as he down his first of
many cups of black coffee and got lost in his own thoughts.
The others said nothing as they began to clean up the
mess. It was amazing what women could
make men do.
~~*~~*~~*~~*~~*~~*~~*~~
Jai, Catherine and Hilde stopped in front of Kellee’s
door. Sally went to check on Milliardo
and Relena headed for her office early to catch up on her paperwork. So the three of them were left to deal with
the aftermath of Kellee’s tirade. Jai
slowly opened the door to find exactly what she’d expected. A complete disaster broken glass was
everywhere. The walls had holes in them
where Kellee had either punched or kicked it.
She lay sprawled on the couch with an empty bottle of wine lying on the
floor next to it. Catherine went to
start the coffee pot and try to find a cup that may have survived the
catastrophe. Jai and Hilde had the
daunting task of waking Kellee. They
shook her once and she sprang off the couch in a fighting stance.
“Whoa Jackie Chan calm down its only us” Hilde said
referring to her fighting stance and her wild, bunched and knotted hair.
“So tell me what happen between you and Trowa or am I gonna
have to go in and get it.”
“I wouldn’t recommend it right now.”
Kellee’s vision began to swim and she fell back down on the
couch putting her feet up and throwing an arm over her eyes. The memories of last night came tumbling
back in her mind. Trowa’s passion filled
green eyes. Trowa’s muscled arms under her fingers. Trowa’s well-toned body intertwined with hers. Trowa’s strong hands all over her body.
“AAAAARRRRRRGGGGGGG!!!!!!!!!!”
“That good huh?” Hilde asked as she began sweeping the
broken glass into a pile.
“Nope. Better. Much better. Well it was until he opened his
mouth and ruined it for me but that’s what I deserve for acting like a horny
teenager.”
“What exactly did he say?” Catherine asked.
“Wait a minute what did you say to him first. I don’t want to get the wrong impression
here.” Jai said knowing full well Kellee had taunted him in some way.
“Ok. I asked him if he really wanted me to wear that muzzle.
Then he kissed me and yahdy yah yahdy yah.
Then he picked it up off of the floor gave me a smug ass smile and said
the answer to your question is yes then walked away. I was feeling quite wonderful but after he said that I felt like
his private wench.” She finished and
threw the empty wine bottle at the wall shattering it.
“That egotistical, self centered, mega banged, half faced
prick.”
“You forgot good looking.” Jai said.
Kellee grunted her response.
“Trowa would never think of you like that.” Catherine said
defending her brother.
“I think you more upset with yourself for liking whatever
happened between you two than what he may think of you because of it.” Hilde said removing all breakable objects
from Kellee’s reach.
“Whatever” she replied as she walked into her room.
Kellee looked at her self in her vanity mirror pick up her
brush and combed the knots out. After
she was done she continued to stare at her reflection. In her anger she crashed
her fist through the glass and it shattered.
~*~*~
Duce sat at his desk bored out of his mind. Duce looked around for the teacher. When he saw her occupied with another student
he slipped out of the room to go look for his mom. The first place he decided to look was his Aunt Sally’s lab. His
mom was usually there talking to the Preventer doctor. When he arrived at the medical wing he
started looking in every room he came to until he found one that had a strange
man laying in it.
He pulled a chair up to the side of the bed and climb on the
bed. He sat on the man’s stomach and
just stared at his face. He looked just
like the man in the picture on his mom’s nightstand. The man had the same platinum blond hair he had but he couldn’t
be sure this was his dad until he saw his eyes.
Milliardo was fighting his way through the darkness toward
the light. He felt the urgent need to
reach that light. He’d heard a voice
telling him that she loved him but it was a voice he hadn’t heard in five no
six years. He kept fighting his way to
the light. As he neared it he began to
feel a weight on his chest.
Milliardo stirred causing Duce to jump slightly but he was
determined to stay to see the man’s eyes.
Milliardo slowly opened his eyes and Duce gasped. He had the same clear blue eyes he had. This man was indeed his father.
“What’s your name?” Duce asked Milliardo.
‘Where
the hell am I’
Milliardo focused his eyes on the voice that asked him a
question. When his vision cleared he
saw a little boy sitting on his stomach that look just like he did when he was
a little boy.
“Who are you?” Milliardo asked Duce in a raspy voice.
“I asked you first.” Duce said crossing his little arms.
“Preventer Wind”
“My name is Duce”
Milliardo cocked an eyebrow “What’s your real name?”
“What’s yours?”
‘Smart-ass
little brat.’
“My name is Milliardo Peacecraft”
“My name is Milliardo Peacecraft II. My mother is Lucrezia Noin.”
Milliardo’s mouth dropped and he sat straight up in his
bed. His head swam but he was
determined not to pass out. He grabbed
Duce by his shoulders and stared at him.
The one night he shared with Noin came back to him. He often thought of her while he was away.
It gave him the strength he needed to stay alive. He had someone to come home to.
He loved her and she had given him the most wonderful gift any man could
receive. He ran his fingers through
Duce’s hair. He stared at each feature
on his face. He did look just like he
did as a boy. He had missed so much of
his son’s life but he promised himself he would not miss any more.
“So dad where you been?” Duce asked and smiled at Milliardo
happy to finally get to meet his Father.
‘Dad?!’ The word
was strange and yet it was the most beautiful word he had ever heard. Duce had Noin’s smiled he noted as he pulled
Duce to him to give him a fierce hug.
Duce threw his arms around Milliardo.
“Welcome Home Daddy.”
Milliardo squeezed him tighter.
Noin stood in the doorway with tears in her eyes as father
and son were reunited. Milliardo looked up to see Noin standing in the doorway
and motioned her to him with his eyes.
He kept one arm around Duce as his free hand brought Noin closer to him
and he gave her a kiss filled with the six years of love he wasn’t able to give
her until now.
“Thank You. This is
the most precious gift I have ever received besides your love.” he said as they
broke the kiss.
“I love you, Noin.” he said as he brought her down on the
bed next to him.
“And I love you, too”
“Hey I’m still here you know” Duce said with a pout.
They both looked at each other and turned to Duce, “We love
you, too” and had their first family hug.
~*~ Later that morning ~*~
Relena was in her office going through yet another stack of
papers when her secretary came in with a box.
“Ms. Relena this package just arrived for you”
“Thank You, Mavis” she replied as she took the package from
the woman.
As Mavis was leaving Hilde entered Relena’s office.
“Hey! Whatcha got there?” Hilde asked looking at the box.
“I don’t know” she said skeptically as she looked over the
box.
Relena opened the box and gasp. She then pulled out a beautiful crystal and gold vase with black
roses. The vase had a solid gold
four-inch base and gold trim at the top.
The rest of the vase was made out of crystal in a typical bellowed shape
with a black and gold rose painted on it.
There were a dozen black roses that had their tips dipped in gold.
“WOW! That’s
beautiful Relena even if those roses are black. The gold on them makes them
exquisite.”
Relena continued to stare at her gift. “Who would send me black roses?” she asked
out loud getting a little creep out about it.
“Where’s the card?” Hilde asked digging around the tissue
paper it was wrapped in. “Found it.”
Hilde opened the card and read it.
To Relena,
All my love
Heero.
A smile blossomed on Relena, “Now he would send me black
roses.”
“I’m going to take this and thank him”, Relena said as she
picked up the vase and left the room.
“I can’t wait to tell the others.” Hilde said always itching for gossip.
Hilde entered the Strategy Room and found all the girls
there.
“Hey. I know something you don’t know” Hilde sing songed as
she walked over to lap top Jai was typing on.
“Surprise me” Jai responded not looking up from what she was
doing.
Kellee and Catherine came over to listen to the gossip Hilde
had.
“Heero sent Relena roses.
Black roses in the most beautiful crystal and gold vase I’ve ever seen.”
Jai immediately stopped typing and whipped around to face
Hilde.
“What?!”
Hilde jumped back.
“Heero sent Rele…”
“I HEARD THAT PART TELL ME ABOUT THE VASE!!!”
Jai was now out of her chair and shaking Hilde.
“I…It…cry...st…a…l…a...aa...an…nnd…d…g...g...g…old”
Jai was shaking Hilde so hard she could barley speak.
“HEERO DIDN’T SEND RELENA ANYTHING!!! WAS THE BASE OF THE VASE ABOUT FOUR-INCHES
THICK?!”
“HOW DID YOU KNOW?!”
“SHIT!!!! WHERE IS THAT VASE NOW?!” Catherine yelled.
“With Relena. She
was taking it to Heero to thank him for it. What’s wrong?!”
But Jai and Catherine were out the door running full speed
to the med conference room where the boys were. Kellee and Hilde took off behind them.
Relena knocked on the door then entered the room. Duo, Jase, Trowa and Quatre were leaning
over Heero’s laptop while he was typing.
“Sorry to bother you, Heero but I wanted to thank you for
the lovely gift.” She said as she held
the vase and roses for all to see.
“You sent her black roses?”
Jase said thinking Heero has a weird sense of romance.
Heero jumped up from his laptop causing the boys to scatter.
“I didn’t send you anything Relena.”
“Yes you did. The
note said To Relena, All my love, Heero.” Now she was pissed. She knew Heero was a private person but this
was ridiculous.
“What’s wrong Heero? I’m not worthy of a public proclamation
of your love,” she viciously said.
“I would never SEND you anything Relena”
Relena’s eyes widen.
‘That
came out all wrong’ Heero thought as he mentally smacked himself.
“Relena…”
The door burst open.
RELENA!!!!!
BOMB!!!!!
THROW NOW!!!!
Heero took the vase from Relena threw it toward the window,
grabbed her by the waist and dove under the table. Jai dove on Quatre, Kellee
on Trowa, Catherine on Jase and Hilde on Duo.
~*~*~
Sally had just left Milliardo. For someone that was in a coma for a year he was in remarkably
good health. She was on her way back to the med lab when she saw Samone Ling
talking with Wufei. There was something
about the black haired Chinese girl that didn’t seem right. Besides the fact she was hitting on Wufei
every chance she got.
‘Why
do I care? It’s not like he’s mine or
anything’
‘But
you want him to’
‘Shut
up’
‘Especially
those kisses that can get you hotter than the stiffest drink’
‘SHUT
UP!’
“Onna!”
Wufei who was now coming towards her interrupted Sally’s
fight with herself. From the look on
Samone’s face she was not too happy about being ditched.
‘Score
one for the home team’
“Ms. China Perfect doesn’t look to happy about being
ditched.”
Wufei said nothing as he opened the door and entered the med
lab. Sally came in behind him and
walked over to the desk to add notes to Milliardo’s chart before she took it to
Jase.
“Why are you down here, Wufei” she asked. He was entirely too quiet.
“I was on my way to the conference room when I got trapped
by the Ling girl.”
Sally got up and made her way to the adjoining conference
room door followed by Wufei.
“Onna, from now on make sure you’re in your bed before you
go to sleep. I don’t want to make it a
habit of carrying you every night.”
Sally turned and looked him in his eyes.
“Oh. I don’t know Wufei” she purred, ”If I can get kisses
like that, I just may fall asleep on my desk every night.”
Wufei stopped dead in his tracks.
“YOU WERE AWAKE!!!”
Sally laughed as she opened the door to the conference room
and entered.
***KA BOOM***
The bomb exploded.
