Disclaimer: I do not own Gundam Wing but I do however own this story and it?s plot.
Author?s Notes: Hm?well I didn?t get as many reviews as I hoped. =[ But I?m still happy to those who DID review me, I thank you all! I?m not sure when this story is going to be finishing up because I have a lot more twists to this than it may seem. I hope you?ll review and enjoy this story!

Heero?s POV
I stared at her. In the light of the living room, she looked like an angel. The jeans she wore clung to her every curve of her thin legs and her leather shirt shaped curves and clung to the ones she had. Her eyes were sparkling in the light and her hair shimmered. She glared at me and I wondered what I should say?we were alone and if we had been a normal couple and none of the horrible things had happened to her, I?d think we?d kiss.
But we weren?t a normal couple. We were in an arranged marriage and one of us wanted a divorce a week from our year anniversary. She had been hurt horribly while I was sleeping with the person who had replaced her in her own band. Things couldn?t get any more complicated.
?Relena?I- I?m sorry.?
Damn it! Why the hell would I say I?m sorry for?! I swallowed as I watched Relena blink rapidly in confusion. I saw her take a step forward and stumble a little and I reached forward with one giant step to catch her. I balanced her by wrapping an arm around her waist. Her waist was so small, it had grown smaller since the accident. When my hand wrapped around her waist like a snake and my hand rested on her upper rib cages, I could feel the bones. Yes, she had lost a lot of weight.
She looked at me and something flashed in her eyes that moment we stared into each other eyes that I couldn?t quite understand. It was hurt, sadness, and longing. And other emotions that I just couldn?t figure out.
My mother, before she passed away, told me when you look into someone?s eyes, you could see their souls. You could see their hearts, and you could always see the best and the worst in them. She also told me to always follow my emotions because this way I would live without a regret.
The advice followed me everywhere. However, today I couldn?t quite understand what I was seeing as I stared into the depths of my wife?s eyes. There was a lot of hurt and sadness in those eyes. I could only think of the worst but for some reason I could also see a roller coaster with too many twists and turns.
I hold a lot of regrets since I married Relena. As she put her purse down on the coffee table and I led her to sit down on a couch, I sat down next to her. It was the one in front of one of the large grand windows of the estate?s living room so the sun warmed our backs and shaded our eyes from the glare.
I took away the things that made her life happy, forced her to be dependent on my money. I took away her dreams, kept her locked inside somewhere she didn?t even know and forced her to never connect back with the life she had before she married me. I took away her freedom and her independence and that?s something that no man should ever do to a woman.
I also regret being with Sylvia, even though I never knew what I was doing because I was drugged, it still wasn?t an excuse.
We sat next to each other, slightly turned face to face. Our knees touched and my arm was still around her waist. Suddenly she did something I never expected her to do, she leaned into me. Her head rested at my chest, where she could hear my heart beat, her hair slid like a waterfall to my torso and I could feel it?s light weight and silkiness through the cotton of my shirt. I rested my chin at the crown of her head and we stayed there for what seemed like forever.
Forever meaning until it was night and we both had fallen asleep on the couch. I leaned back, taking her with me. My back pressed against the plush cushions of the couch and my head rested at the arm rest. My legs fanned, I was tall but the couch was huge. So my feet was only a feet away from reaching the end. Relena?s weight shifted so her body rested lightly against my own. It was comforting and though her thigh brushed against the muscle between my legs, I was fine with the turn on. Her hands rested lightly against her face and on my chest. I sighed and soon drifted off to sleep.

I woke up with a jolt after the ringing of my watch woke me up. Sighing I turned it off and laid back. Something on me shifted and I looked down to see golden hair, sandy yellow like the soft color of the sand of the beach. She was shaking and mumbling something. I sat up and looked around. It was dark and I could only see the lights from the halls. It had gotten cold and I sat up.
I carried her up the stairs and into a room that I was pretty sure was hers. It had some of her belongings in it, like the light blue brush she always used when she brushed her hair and the white pearl jewelry box with a picture of a red rose that stood out against the white.
?Screw it.? I said and laid next to her on the bed, pulling the comforter over us. I had already taken off both our shoes and anything uncomfortable for myself but because I did not violate my wife, I had a maid dress her in a night gown. It just happened to be a very short nightgown.
I sighed when Relena snuggled against my chest, my bare chest, I slept in boxers. Wrapping an arm around her waist I entered a world of dreams.
We?ll talk in the morning.
Author?s Notes: Well I?m sorry if I disappointed you guys for those who expected a talk in this chapter but I thought it?d be sweet if there was a moment of actual?well love. REMEMBER TO REVIEW!
