Don't feel embarrassed or silly. We all just don't catch things sometimes (me more than most, I think ). It's nothing to be ashamed of.
I hope I didn't come off as snobby in my answer. If I did, I apologize. I didn't mean it that way - I was just trying to explain it methodically. It wasn't my intention to make you feel silly or to insult you. I'm sorry if the wording of my explanation offended you in any way.

The Importance of Tomorrow:
The clarity of the hindsight we obtain from a new day may be 20/20, but it provides us with biased knowledge of the experiences and emotions that were-- Not what could have been, if only we had the chance to look through those premonitory eyes.
Sheila is not Heero's lover, but Jim's. I can understand why you were confused, though. The clue is in the line's wording, as it says that she was his [Jim's lover] as far as Heero could tell. Since Heero would know whether or not he's having sex with a woman, we can assume that Sheila is NOT Heero's lover. The only other male really mentioned was Jim (the captain), so we then come to the conclusion that HE must be Sheila's lover.
I hope that helped clear it up a little. ^_^
Hahahahaha! Don't feel bad Sweet-me. The author (me) didn't even remember this character and had no idea what you were talking about! Let's all thank Tomorrow for her lovely explanation. You rock, Tomorrow. ^_^ No one could ever think such a sweet person as you was being snobbish!
Thanks for reading everyone! I like finishing unfinished fics too!
hey, don't sweat it Tomorrow!! i really appreciate the explaination. i'm quite relieve actually, i'm a very jealous person and i dont want Heero to have any sexual realationship with another person aside from Relena.
so dont worry about it Tomorrow, i'm glad to know that people here in BI are always willing to lend a hand. thanks!!!
and well done Zap!!!

Nice but Heero seemed stabled about not fighting after EW.... I donno I guess it just isn't my style to fuck before you know the person isn't going to leave you for a gun... but it was good.
