Past Mistakes
Chapter 8
(Relena?s POV)
It?s been a week since the accident from the park. Yet it still bothered me that someone was out there, trying to destroy Heero?s life. It?s not like I cared much about him or anything. It?s just that he is my patient and I have obliged myself of curing him. <Then again Relena old girl, you could never lie and actually expect to get away with it.> I looked out the window and saw the rain drops fall from the sky. I was kind of upset with the weather lately. It has been raining five days straight.
Turning back to my desk, I tried to finish the paper work Dorothy had sent me early that day.
_______________FLASHBACK___________
?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
___________FLASHBACK ENDS____________
<What is it that they?re after you for Heero? What have you done to anger them so much?> I turned back around to face the window. I gently laid my hand upon the window, using it as a supporter.
_______________FLASHBACK___________
?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 follow your little orders.. A promise is a promise. And I Relena Peacecraft do not hold back on my promises.?
___________FLASHBACK ENDS____________
<What on earth can they threaten to take from me anyways?> Sighing gently once again, I turned back around to face the papers that I left undone. I collected them all and quickly stuck them into a folder. I lean back against my chair and closed my eyes, blocking myself from the whole world.
It was then when I heard a light tap from my office door. ?Yes?? I responded with my eyes still shut.
I heard the door slowly open and light footsteps entering the room, closing the door behind them firmly.
It probably had been a minute of silence and I once again asked,? Yes??
My only response was complete silence. I slowly opened my eyes to see a shadow standing in front of me. Smiling gently, I responded,? It?s you.?

?What do you mean you have no idea where he is!? Hilde yelled.
?I don?t know, he told me he was going on a jog and be back later on.? Duo responded as quickly as he could, as he backed away from the girl who was about to kill him most likely.
?Duo, I know Heero is weird, but I know he wouldn?t run in jeans and a button up shirt and take his car to go on a RUN!?
Duo stop abruptly when he felt his back against the wall. Knowing he was trapped, he had to think of a way to get away from Hilde?s wrath. All he could think of was keep silent and pray that Hilde would eventually calm down.
?Duo, how could you let him go so easily. We had this whole night perfectly planned out!? Hilde continued to yell at him. ?I mean seriously, candle light dinner on a cruise boat you have all to yourself, is so romantic. However, you let our prisoner loose. Now his gone for god knows how long!?
?Will sorry do anything to calm you dome?? Duo asked gently, hoping she would calm down before she cause any damage to his apartment or to himself.
?Let?s just say, if you don?t find Heero less than 2 hours, you won?t be having a peaceful night.?
?Roger that.? Duo replied while rushing out the door with Hilde on his heels. <Heero, buddy, where-ever you have gone, it better not have been out of this town!> Duo prayed silently to himself.

?It?s you.? I replied to the dark figure.
There standing in dark blue jeans with a sky blue shirt was no other than Heero Yuy. I could see his muscular chest from the first three buttons that were undone, and his hair seemed more unruly, yet more mysterious. Then there were his eyes. It?s like his eyes can pierce a hole right through you.
We stood like that for about another 5 minutes until I had the courage to speak again. ?Why are you here Heero? Remember, today I gave you the day off to relax at home and do something fun.?
Just like before, he just stood there, watching me. It was when I was about to speak again, he moved. He didn?t move much, but I suppose for Heero Yuy, it was a start.
It was then when I realized that he had his right hand behind his back. He slowly pulled the hand in front to confront me with a single red rose and a little while card attach to it.
I looked up at him silently surprised by his actions. I slowly took the rose from his hand and unattached the card from the flour. I gently put the rose upon my desk, fearing it might break if I were to do anything else with it. With shaky hands, I began to open the letter and read it?s context.
Relena,
You done so much for me in the past few weeks we known each other. And now is the time to show my appreciation of what you have done. Please head towards Gale woods Park and head straight to the lake.
Heero
I looked up quickly to noticed that Heero was no longer there. I quickly got up and grabbed for my belongings and head straight to my car. Taking the rose with me.
It was about 10 minutes later when I finally reached the park and I ran as quickly as I could towards the lake. <What is he up to?> I thought to myself, shocked by all means that he would to do this. Why was it that my heart was pounding so much and why was I scared.? So many questions ran through my mind as I continued to run.
I had finally reached the lake and was about to call out for Heero when I stopped abruptly.
?Oh my god.? I silently said.
There, laying in front of myself was a blanket with a picnic basket and two candles burning in the middle. The scent of lavender filled the air. There was also pedals of red roses scattered around the blanket. I looked down upon my red rose and held on tightly to it. I walked forward slowly, dumbstruck of what was going on.
I slightly kneeled in front of the blanket, looking around the surroundings.
?Do you like it?? a voiced whispered from behind.
I turned around quickly to see Heero standing behind me. I got up slowly to come face to face with him.
?I don?t understand.? I whispered.
A frowned appeared on his face. ?You don?t like it then.?
I gently grabbed hold of his hand and placed it in front of us. I turned his palm face up and started to circle around it with my other hand.
?I love it.? I whispered while looking up to his face.
For the second time in my life, I saw him smile slowly, looking down upon my form. It was then when I looked into his eyes.
It was right there, when I saw a movement of emotion in his cold eyes.
?Shall we then?? He asked looking at the blanket before us.
?Lead the way Mr. Yuy.? I responded as he took my hand into his large ones.
?Call me Heero.?
?As long as you can me Relena.? I smiled at him.
