Chapter Six- Good Times Gone

?That?s a lovely necklace Relena.? Mrs. Dorlan commented after lunch was over and only the wine remained. ?Is it new??

?Yes, it?s fairly new.? Samantha replied with a slight hint of pink to her cheeks.

?Out with it Relena, who gave it to you??

?Mother, please it?s not prudent of me to say.?

?I did.? Heero said in his usual monotonous tone.

?Well then, was that so hard Relena?? Mrs. Darlan teased Samantha further. ?I happen to think it?s a lovely gift Mr. Yuy. You have a good taste in jewelry.?

?That was a very lovely lunch mother.? Samantha said with still tinted cheeks. ?I?m going to go talk to Pagan.? Samantha quickly got up and left the room.

?Well Mr. Yuy, if you?ll follow me to the den I have some questions for you.? Mrs. Darlan said as she arose from her seat.

?Ma?am.?

LSLLSLLSLLSLLSLLSL

?Please take a seat Mr. Yuy.? Mrs. Darlan said as she handed him a glass of freshly poured whisky.

?Heero please ma?am.?

?Very well then Heero.? Mrs. Darlan said with a very serious face leaving Heero with an uncomfortable feeling. ?I have just one question for you and I want the truth.?

?Ma?am.?

?Where is my daughter Heero.?

With that question Heero?s reserve sank. Nothing in the world would have ever prepared him for this question. But he knew there was no leaving the room until the question was answered. Heero downed his glass of whisky and with all the strength he could muster raised his head to look her in the eyes.

?She?s dead ma?am.? He said in a low voice. Then with a single tear rolling down his cheek he repeated himself. ?Relena?s dead. I tried to save her, but I was just too weak.?

?How did she die??

?I don?t think yo??

?Heero I coped just fine when my husband was blown up I think I can handle this. Now how did my daughter die??

?She was decapitated ma?am.

?You were by her side when she died then?? Mrs. Darlan asked looking Heero straight in the eye.

?Yes ma?am.

?At least she died next to the man she loved.? and with that Mrs. Darlan rose from her chair and headed for the door, coming to a stop a few feet from the door. ?I believe you and this other girl are set to leave tomorrow??

?Yes ma?am.? Heero said still sitting in his chair.

?You know she often spoke of you Heero.? She said as she put her hand to the doorknob and opened the door. ?I would appreciate it if you would tell the good Colonel and Relena?s brother not to insult me as they have just done. Good day Mr. Yuy.? and with that she left the room.

Heero got up and poured himself another glass then sat back down. Pondering to himself the conversation that had just taken place. But more importantly, the girl who the conversation was about.

?Relena.? Heero said in a saddened tone. Then he finished his drink and walked out as well.

?Thanks for the lovely Christmas mother.? Samantha said as they all stood outside. Every thing was packed in the car and they were ready to go, all that was left was the goodbyes.

?Thank you for finding time to make it out here Relena.? Mrs. Darlan said with an uncomfortable smile on her face.

?You know I always look forward to seeing you mother.? She then turned to Heero. ?I?ll be waiting in the car.?

?Hn.? Was all Heero replied.

?I hope you will relay my message to Une and Milliardo, Heero.? Mrs. Dorlan eyed him.
?Yes ma?am.? He said as he began to walk towards the car. ?And the girl??

?This isn?t her fault and none of this conspiracy should be placed on someone as innocent as her. You just make sure to help her in the challenges ahead.? Mrs. Darlan turned to walk away and then almost as an afterthought added. ?While she can never replace my daughter or the woman you loved, an innocent soul such as hers might just be what this world needs in this time of peace.?

?Yes ma?am.? Heero said and then walked to the car for the ride home.

really sorry to say, but I don't really like this fic. I'm a 100% 1xR fan and not 1xS so not sure if this belongs here?

Have you read lifes bitter truth it's the first part of this story. It's meant to be read as one whole story but I broke it up into two. Try not to think of this as 1XOC because although their may be little things that make it seem that way this story is about Heero and how he copes with Relena's death. Its more of a story about friendship then about romance. I'm with you though I to am an ardent 1xR fan.
