Air Hostess Chapter 4
By dragon agility
Duo returned to his seat refreshed. He sat down, his braid swishing behind him. He wanted to ask Hilde so many questions because when he looked at her blue eyes, she looked so full of energy with wildness and determination. She was very flirty, but she seemed meaningful as well. She looked so much more than the hostess she was.
He opened his pack of peanuts and threw a few in his mouth, ?Yum.?
He jumped when the guy beside him began to snore. He laughed at himself.
~*~*~*~*~
As Hilde finished drinking her cup of coffee and straightened out her skirt, her beret back on her head, she heard a laugh filter through to where she was. It was him; she recognized his voice.
?Hilde. I?m busy sorting the money. Someone?s got their light on.?
Hilde walked out and glanced at Duo as she passed him. He was eating peanuts. She smiled and walked to the flashing light.
Duo wanted to talk to her and flirt too. In fact, he wanted more. But he was a respectable man and he had to talk to her and date her first. As he chewed more peanuts, he put his fingers in the packet and pulled out a few.
?This is stupid,? he thought, ?but it?s worth a try. And if anyone can do it, I sure can!?
Duo cast his cobalt blue eyes down the aisle and aimed. He threw the peanuts. One hit right on target. He ducked down into his seat as Hilde looked around and dismissed it. He snickered to himself, then looked at her again as she looked around the baggage holders above the passengers, her petite form on tip toes. He threw some more and she turned and Duo smiled.
Her eyes narrowed and then she broke into a smile. Duo chucked a few more in his mouth and then threw some more at her. She caught one in her hand and popped it into her mouth. He wanted to laugh. Duo watched as she walked towards him and he spoke, ?Decided to come over for a while??
Hilde smiled, a bit sly, and then grabbed his arm pulling him up. His eyes widened as he was pulled up out of his seat, ?What?s this for? A bit keen are we?!?
For the first time, Hilde noticed that his physique was impressive and he was at least a head taller then her.
?Come on,? she said taking his hand. He didn?t move, and then he felt himself being pulled along to the back row of seats that were empty for the flight. She sat in first next to the window and patted the seat next to her. He sat down and looked at Hilde, smiling.
He was smiling as well, ?I wanted to have a chat with you. Can?t resist talking to you??
Duo leaned back and grinned, ?Now that?s a new one, pretty lady!?
She blushed and hit him lightly on the arm, ?You?re quite a flirt you know.?
He shrugged, ?So are you. I can?t resist flirting with you??
She laughed, blushing slightly.
?Wanna peanut??
Hilde shook her head and he popped more into her head as she studied him. He was definitely good looking. His soft chestnut hair with the bangs falling over his cobalt blue eyes. She eyed the braid and thought, ?I?ve gotta touch that braid.? His shirt was unbuttoned at the top and his jeans clung tightly to his long legs. She subconsciously licked her lips.
?I love your hair,? she commented.
He grinned and threw a peanut in the air, catching it in his mouth. Hilde saw her chance and grabbed his braid, his eyes widening.
?Hey! Don?t pull so hard!?
He looked to see her running her fingers through the ends of his braid and inspecting it and smiling, saying, ?Wow. The braid is perfect.?
?I?ve had lots of practice!?
She smiled and Duo felt his heart leap. She was gorgeous, ?I love your name, Hilde.?
Her eyes sparkled and she let go of the braid.
?When I first saw you,? began Duo, ?I just had to know your name!?
?Really??
?Yeah. You were talking to your friends in the terminal when I saw you. You?re much cuter when you?re this close. I tried to follow you, but the stupid security guard stopped me. Could?ve got in there anyway, but my skills from the war and my job shouldn?t interfere with daily life. Would?ve liked to punch that guard though, gave me such a dirty look??
?I?ve hit him before.?
Duo seemed surprised.
?He?s a creep and deserves anything that involves pain. I know you could?ve easily have followed me seeing as?? she leaned in close, ?you?re an ex-Gundam pilot.?
Duo smiled and moved back, ?Hilde, I?m impressed. You?re tough and clever, not just a pretty face. What did you think of the wars??
She sighed, ?I was only fifteen during the wars, and I did something wrong in the war. I don?t regret it though, as it?s help me become the person I am.?
Duo nodded and looked into her eyes, ?What you do and what happens to you makes who you are. Your experiences become you. It changes your life. Being a Gundam pilot was quite fun, but in reality you have to face your fears and put an end to the pain which causes pain itself.?
Duo smiled, ?Here I am rambling on. Tell me about yourself, you seem like more than a pretty hostess to me.?
Hilde smiled, ?Being a hostess is the road I have to take to make my way to my dream. During the war, I joined the Oz community forces and that was my mistake. I loved my home and I loved the stars. Piloting a Leo was fun. After I didn?t regret what I?d done as it made me realise many things. My ultimate aim is to be a shuttle mechanic. But for that I have to be a hostess, become a pilot and then become my goal.?
Duo nodded, ?Mechanics, hey? It?s a good career. I believe that you make your own choices in life and fulfil them.?
She smiled, ?You share my philosophy.?
?Choose your own path and follow it the best way you can. You and me share interests. We love the stars and I?m into mechanics too.?
?Really? Well, if you had your own Gundam. What was it like to pilot a superior mobile suit??
?Thrilling and exciting. And being the God of Death was who I was. It was dangerous, but I put up with that. Now, I?m just Duo Maxwell of the Preventers. If I?d ever ran into you those years ago, I wouldn?t be talking to you now, babe. I wasn?t called the God of Death for nothing!?
?So,? said Hilde, ?do you believe in God or do you preach death??
?I happen to be quite a religious man,? he replied, ?I spent a year with a church when I was younger?but the Alliance burnt it to the ground. I believe in God, he kept me alive during the war and made me survive the Maxwell Church Tragedy for a reason.?
Hilde gasped, ?You were a Maxwell Church Tragedy survivor? Oh?your surname.?
She paused, ?I?m sorry, I shouldn?t have brought up something like this??
Duo frowned, ?Hey!?
Her hand was resting on the arm rest between them and he covered her hand with his causing her to look into his eyes, ?Don?t be sad. It?s nothing, you did nothing wrong. I didn?t mean to upset you, Hilde.?
Hilde smiled and turned her hand around do that her fingers interlaced with his. They smiled at each other and kept their hands together, though they didn?t seem to notice. Hilde reached into her pocket with her other hand and extracted a few coins, ?You?re change from your purchases. I can?t keep it.?
Duo smirked, pushing her hand away, ?You will keep it. And I?ll keep repeating myself until you get the message.?
Hilde sighed and out the coins back in her pocket. She subconsciously squeezed her hand against his, ?You?re too kind.?
?Always have been. It?s what we Gundam pilots are and what we have to be,? his expression turned sly, ?so?tell me Hilde `cos I?m curious. Have you ever, you know, found anyone at it in the restroom??
Hilde laughed, ?You pervert!?
?Dumb question,? said Duo, unlatching his hand from Hide?s and stretching them above, clicking his back. Hilde was still laughing, ?Forget I asked.?
Hilde smiled, ?Actually, I have found someone at it in the restroom of the shuttle.?
Duo nodded and then realised what she said, ?Really?!?
Hilde nodded and smiled at his interest.
?Alright then,? began Duo, ?Tell me the details or I?ll tickle you `cos all girls are ticklish!?
Hilde smirked, ?Keen, aren?t we??
His hands moved close to her sides so she began to talk, ?Well, it was a private flight and I was the only hostess.?
?Private flight??
?Yeah,? Hilde nodded, ?It was someone important. It was a few months ago. Anyway, they obviously thought that the walls were soundproof because they were making such a racket. I could hear them from the back of the shuttle! I thought it was pretty funny!?
?So they came out and you looked at them to make them feel guilty??
Hilde?s face dropped, ?No way! I?ve got guts. I wouldn?t let them get away with it that easily.?
Duo was urgent, ?Come on! I wanna know what you did! And who it is!?
?Well, they kept the volume up. I walked right up to the door. I got my key out and opened the door!?
Duo gasped, ?You actually opened the door??
?Hell yeah! And what did I see? Vice Foreign Minister Darlain riding her so called bodyguard!?
?WHAT?!?
Duo?s eyes widened and he lowered his voice when others began to look at him, ?You found Relena fucking in the restroom on the shuttle?! Bodyguard?! Hold on??
Hilde continued, ?You know her on a first name basis? Oh yeah, you Gundam pilots supported her. Anyway, her so called bodyguard was pretty nice with his unruly brown hair?but he sure gave me a glare!?
Duo was laughing, ?Oh my God of Death! I can?t believe you found Relena and Heero at it! I?m gonna have a field day on this one! Damn!?
?So you know this Preventer bodyguard then??
Duo was still laughing, ?Ok, can you keep a secret? Relena has been dating her bodyguard Heero Yuy for the past eight months. And from your description, it?s definitely him!?
Hilde nodded, ?I recognise that name. Oh! He?s an ex-Gundam pilot too. Figures, he looked about ready to kill!?
Duo chuckled, ?So what happened once they were rumbled??
?Well, I said to them ?you could have just masturbated: it?s a lot quieter.? He looked angry and she was just embarrassed. She walked past me out of the restroom to her seat. He glared at her and then joined her. I closed the door and walked up the aisle. As I passed them, I winked and walked off; a sly look on my face!?
Duo smiled, ?Excellent! I still can?t believe it! Heero and Relena getting it off in a shuttle! Never knew they had it in them! I think when they eventually get married ?which I?m sure they will ? I?ll buy Relena something saucy and tell them I know about it. No?I?ll end up with a black eye.?
Hilde smiled, ?Well they?re lucky I never sold it to the press.?
Duo nodded, ?Well, no one knows about their relationship except for our group. He?s always held a torch for her and they finally got it together. I?m so excited! I?m gonna tease him sooooooooooo badly!?
Hilde chuckled, ?Well, tell them I said hi!?
Duo nodded and then stared gracefully at Hilde. She gazed back into his eyes, losing herself in their gentleness.
?You know,? he said, ?when I first looked into your eyes, I saw wildness and you?ve shown me just how wild and fun you really are.?
Hilde?s cheeks flushed with a pink tint without breaking their intense eye contact. Duo slowly lifted his hand and caressed her smooth cheek. Hilde flinched slightly, and then relaxed against his touch. She reached for his free hand and took it.
As she leaned into his palm, he talked, ?You?re beautiful. I?ve never met anyone quite like you.?
Her mouth opened as if to say something but then closed her mouth. Her eyes were intense and then she finally spoke, a smile on her face, ?I?ve never met anyone like you either. You?re flirtatious, funny, loud but you?re also caring and very kind. You?re the first person to tell me I?m beautiful.?
He looked shocked, ?Really? Surely someone else must have noticed how gorgeous you are.?
?Stop flattering me.?
?It?s true!? he took both her hands in his, ?you?re very pretty and kind.?
?Thank you,? she said and then smiled slyly, ?so?do you trust me??
Duo smiled puzzled, ?Why? Yeah, I trust you.?
?Good,? she replied, ?Because I trust you too. You seem to understand me.?
?Well, you seem to know me and I seem to know you when we?ve only just basically met.?
Hilde smiled, her hands still in his and then he spoke.
?So, where am I standing Hilde? I never expected to meet such a nice gal on a normal shuttle flight. One reason I?m going home to South Point D, L2 is to hit the clubs and bars and meet girls??
She smiled and took her hands out of his. She leaned close, her breath on his neck and she talked quietly and huskily into his ear, ?Let?s just say that it isn?t over yet.?
And with that, she pecked his cheek and stood up walking past him and into the back, leaving Duo feeling a little flushed and anxious, ?What did she mean??
He didn?t see her for the rest of the flight and before he knew it, the stars had disappeared and been replaced by the grey metal of the colony. He hoped he?d see her again. But he did doubt it. She was an air hostess, always in the air and in space. She could live anywhere in the Unified Nation. But she had said that it wasn?t over yet. The shuttle stopped and within three minutes, he had disembarked. He looked up to the shuttle at the windows, but he saw no one. He couldn?t help but smile sadly.
He trudged gloomily through inspections and passport control and then sat as he waited for his luggage. Hilde was an amazing girl. Very good looking and had a great personality. He felt he could get to know her very well and get on with her just fine.
He stood up as the luggage began to rotate on the conveyor belt. The people began to disperse as they picked up their luggage. Soon her was the last one left and there was no luggage. He sat down and put his head in his hands and thought, ?Damn, I thought things wouldn?t get any worse since I feel down since Hilde left me.?
He heard the sound of heels from behind, but he paid no attention to it. He ran his fingers through his bangs in frustration then stood up and walked with his head down towards the service desk.
Then, he stooped. Someone was in front of him. A pair of dainty black shoes, long slender legs that he followed to a skirt that clung to her hips. There were two suitcases one either side, one navy and one?
?Hang on,? he thought, ?that?s my suitcase!?
He looked up and his eyes widened.
?Hello Duo,? smiled Hilde.
Duo?s eyes turned to normal then he smiled too, stepping closer to her. Hilde could smell his musky aftershave as she looked up at him.
?I got your baggage when I got mine.?
?Yours? You?ve got a few days off??
Hilde smiled more and moved closer to whisper in his ear, ?That was my last flight for the next two months. You see, I live in South Point D of this colony too so...if we get going we could be clubbing tonight??
Duo could feel her breath against his neck and moved closer, putting his hands on her waist.
?Keen, are we??
?I want you to thrill me??
She pulled away from his ear, his hands still on her waist. Duo was smiling slyly, ?So pretty lady, do you want to go out tonight??
?Love to,? she replied.
?Oops?I?m sorry. I forgot. I?ve got lots of things to do tonight!?
Hilde frowned and then replied, ?Oh?that?s ok. I?m sure they?ll be plenty of guys around the plaza??
Duo put a hurt look on his face and then chuckled. Hilde laughed too, running a hand through her hair, ?So Duo, where about of this Point do you live??
They turned to the exit.
?Not far, but if we walk slowly I?ll buy ice cream ??
