Past Mistakes
Chapter 10
(Part 1)
(Okay this chapter is mostly a catch up chapter with added features. Basically it?s a review of all the chapters with added scenes or new thoughts or sayings. This is all thought by Relena! )
I can?t explain how it happened.
I can?t explain when it happened.
I can?t even explain why it happened.
However, I can explain the aftermath. Ever since the late night picnic at the park, the relationship between Heero and I have expanded to a secretive romantic one. No one has yet to figure out that Heero and I are a couple. No one has yet to notice our late nights talks and walks. No one yet has to notice the kisses and hugs after work.
If someone were to tell me Heero Yuy was a kind loving soul when I first met him, I wouldn?t have believed them. However, after this past week, I would have to change my mind.
Heero Yuy is kind.
Heero Yuy is caring.
Heero Yuy is handsome.
Heero Yuy is gentle.
Heero Yuy is one of a kind.
Heero Yuy is the one who capture my heart.
Heero Yuy is the one who can break my heart into two.
I turned off the television and got up from the couch. I walked slowly to the bathroom. I took out my tooth paste and my tooth brush and proceed with my nightly brushing.
I looked up to face the mirror and the reflection starring back at me wasn?t my own. Instead of seeing sea blue eyes, I saw Prussian blue eyes starring back. They both looking mysterious and cold, and yet they hold a gently soul and a painful past.
I spit the toothpaste back out and grab a towel to wash my face.
I took the nearby brush and started to count my 100 strokes of brushing. I looked back up at the mirror and instead of seeing honey blonde I saw dark brown unruly hair. While brushing, I realized that it didn?t matter how many times I brushed it, the hair would never be tamed.
I dropped the brush back on the counter and walked out of the bathroom and down the hallway. I stopped quietly in front of April?s room and peeked in. She was sound asleep and by the looks of it having a good dream. I walked in as quietly as I could and went to her bed. I pushed the covers up to her neck and saw Ruffed, her stuffed toy dog right in-between her arms. Smiling gently, I bent down and gave her a kiss on her forehead. I walked back out and stopped at the door.
___________________FLASHBACK____________________
?You have a younger sister?? Heero asked while looking at the picture of April on my desk.
Looking up from the document I was reading I shook my head gently.
?Then who is she?? Heero asked eyeing me.
?That girl in that photograph is April Peacecraft, and she is my 5 year old daughter.? I replied calmly while looking at Heero?s face for any sort of reaction. Yet again, he seems to surprise me because all I got was nothing.
?I see,? he replied putting the photo frame back down.
I returned back to my document and it was probably five minutes later he asked something else.
?May I see her??
I looked back up and asked, ?Who??
?Your daughter, April,? he replied.
?You want to met her?? I asked kind of surprised.
He looked up at me and smiled. ?Of course, she must be just like her mother kind and caring.?
I smiled back at him but then frowned. There was one thing that has been bugging me.
?Why haven?t you asked who the father was??
He only smiled again and shook his head slightly. ?Because I know you.?
?What?? I asked kind of dumb fooled.
Shaking his head slowly he started to walk out of my office. But before he left, he whispered just loud enough so I could hear, ?Once your ready to talk about it, I?m here to listen.?
And he walked out of the door leaving me alone starring at the picture of April.
__________________Flash Back Ends___________________________
?Why didn?t you ask?? I whispered to myself more than to anyone else, closing the door behind me.
I walked silently to my bed roomed and turn on the lights. Walking towards the closet and taking out a pair of sweats and a tank top to sleep in. Once I was dressed I quietly walked towards the window and sat down upon the ledge.
I would never had thought my life would end up like this. I had always dreamt the perfect life I would had when I was younger. Getting the perfect career and settling down with Mr. Right and have a bundle of kids and grandkids.
A light laugh escaped through my mouth. What a joke that was. Nothing but the total opposite happened.
I felt a slight shiver run down my spine when I thought of the past and their result of it. Smiling again I thought about the bonus.
I would never have had April or met Heero.
Heero?..
I still remember the first day I had ever met him. Then again, I would suppose I should start from the beginning of that day.
__________________________Flash Back________________________
?I?m defiantly going to be late. Then again, I suppose it won?t make that big of a difference. Une hasn?t really given me any specific client to work on.? I replied confidently, while looking at the dash board of my car.
I parked the car in my reserved park in front of the Physical Therapy building grabbing my brief case from the back seat.
I saw a person also crossing the parking lot. He seemed shy yet mysterious. With his unruly brown hair hanging all over his face. His eyes down cast to the floor. I also realized that he wasn?t straight either.
I walked as quickly as I could toward the front of the building entering by the front door. I waved quickly at Mr. Suburban, the local security guard.
I looked back down at my watch and knew that I was probably going to get another long lecture from Une about being at work on time.
?Une is going to kill me,? I said out loud still looking down upon my watch.
The next second after I was catch midair from my mysterious savior. I looked up and saw a guy with violet eyes that seemed to own a foot long braid.
?Whoa there, where?s the fire?? he asked smiling down at me with a small chuckle.
I could feel my face to beat red and I stood up quickly and apologized. ?I?m so sorry. However, I must be going. I?m late as it is.? without waiting for a reply, I started to walk away from the stranger.
?It?s alright, the name is Duo. Mind telling what?s your name?? he asked.
I stopped and turned back to face him. Smiling I responded, ?Of course, my name is Relena Peacecraft. Until next time, Duo.?
I turned around hearing the elevator door opening and stepped in.
I didn?t however catch the last phrase Duo had said. ?So you?re Relena. Maybe we will met again.? Turning around the stranger Duo continue his way to the parking lot.
?I?ll just pray that my buddy won?t drive you insane like everyone else. ? turning around slightly, Duo looked back at the elevator.
?We can only pray.? Duo stopped at the front entrance until a black corvette came beside him. Hopping into the car, Duo turned to look at the driver, ?So what do we do now, Heero??
__________________________Flashback Ends______________________
Getting back up from the ledge, I continue my walk from the window to my brief case lying against the dresser. I slowly picked it up and open it. Inside laid the folder marked Heero Yuy.
Picking it up with my hand, I turned it over. Seeing my handwriting on the other side, noting the progress we made over the past months.
Just then however, I frowned, remembering the contexts that were inside the folder.
_____________________Flashback___________________________
Name: Heero Yuy
Age: 27
Profession: Tennis Player
Eye Color: Prussian Blue
Hair Color: Brown
Weight: 135 Lbs.
Height: 5?6
Blood: Type A
Accident: Hit and Run
-Reports indicate that it was deliberate
-Reports indicate that the car had no license
-Mr. Yuy only injury was torn muscles
-Mr. Yuy must attend physical therapy for a couple of months
?A hit and run, I see. I never got a case dealing with a victim like this before.? I continued to looked through the file reading off important details on Heero Yuy.
?He has been playing Tennis since he was only 8 years old. Well that?s interesting.?
?What?s interesting? a voice asked.
I looked up to see Hilde standing beside my office door. Shaking my head slowly I motioned her inside my office. ?This new client of mine.?
?So you did take the offer??
?Yes, I did. My new client was in a hit and run accident. Actually I really shouldn?t say ?accident?.?
I saw Hilde perked up upon hearing about the client. ?I suppose that?s the Police report, you have in your hands?? Hilde started to walk toward my desk.
?Actually it is.? I replied cautiously.
?Well what does it say??
I laid the file gently in front of her eyes and she scanned it quickly.
?It basically says that the driver who hit Mr. Yuy was most likely trying to kill him or was deliberately trying to hit him. Either way, the police took interest in the case and started to interview victims who were there that day. It was then, when a eye witness reported that swore that the car had increased it?s speed when it spotted Mr. Yuy walking.?
?Harsh, did the Police ever Id the car??
?Sadly no they didn?t. There wasn?t a license on the car. Plus, no one got a good look at the driver either.? I replied looking back at the file.
?If this accident was deliberately then that mean that they might come after Heero Yuy once again.? Hilde replied.
?I don?t think so,? I answered back, while looking down at the file.
?Why not??
?Because, the only reason why someone would want Heero Yuy out is his profession. And at this point, it seems very unlikely that he will ever play again.?
?Seriously?? Hilde asked, looking at me shocked.
?Yes, the doctor?s report states that his muscles are in bad shape. And not even Physical Therapy might not help them back into shape. However, the doctors didn?t want to give up hope. So the sent Heero Yuy to us. ? I said facing Hilde.
?I see,? was her only response.
Looking back down, I only felt a ache in my chest, praying that I choose the right choice.
It was right afterwards when I met Heero Yuy for the very first time.
______________________________Flash Back Ends_______________
I made my way back to the bed pulling the covers back. I turned to face the night stand to see a picture of my brother Millardo and myself when we were little. I made a mental note to myself to give him a call tomorrow.
I was about to slide into bed when the phone rang.
Picking the cordless from the nightstand I proceeded to answer it, ?Hello.?
?Hello Relena,? a voice responded on the other line.
It was there when I felt a cold shiver run down my spine.
It was the last person I ever suspected to call.
It was the last person who I ever suspected to talk to ever again.
It was the last person who I wanted to talk to.
?It has been awhile since we last talked,? the voice continued.
It was the person who caused me pain.
It was the person who I blamed for my mistakes.
It was the person who I took my angry out on.
It was the person who I hated with a passion.
Yet it was the person who made time stand still and made my heart beat crazy like it was doing now.
It was him
The one guy I promised myself I would never speak or see ever again.
?Jeremy.?
