Past Mistakes
Chapter 7

<??..> = People?s thoughts

_______________Relena?s POV________________

It?s been about 5 minutes the most that we?ve been walking. It was at this point when I had stopped struggling. To me, all that it seemed like was that we have been walking in a huge circle. I never thought about how big this park was until tonight. As an added bonus, it didn?t help that I was wearing high heels as well. By this time tomorrow, I?m going to have some major blisters.

Finally, we stopped in front of the park?s lake. I was kind of surprised, thinking he would go somewhere more secretive. Then again, not many people decide to take a stroll in the park at midnight either.

I took a quick glance around my surroundings and saw that it was just the two of us. I turn around to face my captor.

?As much as I loved this stroll in the park, I really must be getting back to my car. After all, my friends should be returning with the spare. And if I?m not there to greet them, they?ll be coming after me.? I said calmly. I looked closely at his face, trying to see some sort of reaction. However, the one I got wasn?t the one I had hoped for.

Smiling as gently as he could he replied, ?Don?t worry about that princess, I?ll soon let you go. However, my boss gave me orders to keep you here for a tad bit until he arrives to give you some sort of directions.?

?Directions? What kind of directions as you talking about??

?Don?t know and I really don?t care either. I only care about myself and only myself. So whatever the boss has for you is your problem.?

<Great, what have I gotten myself into this time.> I looked around once more before sitting in front of the lake, awaiting for these mysterious directions.

Just then a group of men were walking toward our direction from afar. I got up quickly and was about to ran away, but then remembered that I was still being held captive. I turned around slowly to face him to see if they were the same men we were waiting for. The only response I got was a nod from his head.

Once they had arrived they stopped and stared. It was then when my captor stepped out in front and said, ?Code number 409 reporting.?

A tall man stepped out of the group. I supposed it must have been the leader or the boss. ?Good work 409, I see you brought the girl with you. You are dismissed and you can wait in the car.?

?Thank you sir.? With that, my captor left me alone without even looking back at me.

I turned aback around to face the new group of men. I looked at each one, trying to see if I could recognize at least one. I couldn?t.

?Aright Miss. Peacecraft, lets get down to work shall we. I could tell you look tired. So I?ll make this quick and easy.?

?Alright,? I responded.

?You have a client named Heero Yuy, am I correct?? the man asked.

?Yes, I do have a client by that name.? I answered slowly, while trying to figure out what they wanted.

?You are to make sure Heero Yuy never plays tennis ever again. These are your new orders and you are assumed to follow them through. It doesn?t matter how you accomplish this goal. Just as long as you do accomplish it.? The man answered.

?You?re kidding me right?? I asked in disbelief. Yet, just by looking on the look of their faces they weren?t. ?I won?t do it. Heero Yuy is my client, and I follow through with the promises I made with them. And I had promised Heero Yuy that I would help him get better, so he can continue to play tennis.? I yelled at them.

?I?m afraid you have no choice but to follow orders Miss. Peacecraft.? the man said calmly, like he already dealt people like me before.

?Oh really, and what would happened if I disagree with this order of yours?? I asked gently.

?Let?s just say you?re going to lose something very precious to you very soon then.?

?I have nothing that would be worth me losing if I don?t help Mr. Yuy. A promise is a promise. And I Relena Peacecraft does not hold back on my promises.?

?You are to follow through with the orders Miss. Peacecraft, that was what I was suppose to report. However, if we find out that you have been disobeying these orders then we shall come back and warn you for the final time. Afterwards you could choice to accept the consequences or go through with the order. It?s up to you Miss. Peacecraft.?

With that done and said the group walked away from my position, leaving me all alone. < Just calm down Relena, there is nothing that they can do or say from changing my mind. Especially considering the fact that I have nothing valued to lose. Right?> Nodding in agreement, I started to walk back to the car.




_______________In the shadows_______________

?Alright Relena, if that?s how you want to play then so be it. Just watch your back from now on. Because I?m not going to lose. I never lost once, and I?m not going to start now.? the man said while watching Relena walk away.

?Maybe it?s about time I?ll start pitching in taking care of our daughter. I know your going to have a laugh about that.? the man continued to stared until Relena?s form disappeared into the forest night.

?Yet, I?m going to have the last laugh dearest. Either way I?ll win. If you agree, I will achieve my goal. And if you disagree, then I can?t wait to see the look on your face when I take full custody of the girl.? Smiling gently the man turned around and walked backed to his car.

?Just you wait. I?ll win either way.? laughing all the way back.

_______________Relena?s POV________________

I was almost near to the parking lot when I a voice.

?Where have you been??

I turned around to come face to face with no other than Heero Yuy himself.

?I decided to take a stroll in the park.?

?At twelve o?clock at night?? he asked not believing in my story.

Not wanting him to know about my little encounter I replied,? Yes, and if it doesn?t make a difference, I got bored waiting around. I mean after all, you weren?t the greatest company either.?

The only response I got was him staring right back at me. Before I got the chance to continue my way back to the car he gently whispered,? Are you all aright??

?What,? I asked kind of confused by what he meant.

?I asked if you were all right. You seemed kind of shaken up.?

For the first time in my entire life, Heero Yuy actually seemed to care about my well being. Smiling as softly as I could, I had replied yes. So we both turned around and started to walk back to the car.

While we were waiting around for Duo and Hilde?s return, I finally had the chance to learn more about Heero. Where he grew up, learn about his family, why he wanted a career in tennis and etc.

It was at that point, that I finally saw the real Heero Yuy. The same Heero Yuy that Duo had mentioned to me.

The Heero Yuy I promised to help play tennis once again.

<And I will keep my promise to Heero. No matter what happens, Heero Yuy will play Tennis once again. Even if it kills me.>

Okay, I know it has been awhile since I updated and I do apologize for that. However, school work has been piling up on me since it is almost over. And I do apologize for this chapter being short once again. But I do promise to have the next chapter much longer and enjoyable. Thank you for all who reviewed for chapter 6. Many answers that you wonder will be answered before the story ends. All I can say is be patient and keep reviewing with your opinions. Especially when I gave you guys a BIG clue in this chapter.

Thanks again for those who reviewed. I?ll try to get the next chapter up as soon as I can. Especially with all these essays and etc.
