Prolog-

In a fit of anger Hilde picked up the phone and through it at the closed

door of the small apartment that she and Wufei shared.

"Coward," she shouted at the door even though she knew that the man she

intended the words for was probably in an elevator and could not hear her.

This knowledge only through her into another fit of out rage and she

began going through the room smashing all the pictures of the Chinese man

that had incurred her wrath.



Hilde was in the middle of her rage when she came across the last picture

of Wufei in the apartment, it was of the both of them on their wedding

day.

The madness that had been the driving force behind her actions for the

last hour drained away and was replaced with pain, sadness, and

loneliness.

With all of the lights out, the room was dim, and suddenly felt all too

empty.

Leaning back against the wall Hilde slid down and sat on the floor,

using her left hand index figure, she traced the happy smile on her

bridegrooms face.

A few tears slipped unnoticed to the frame as she realized that she was

the cause of his angry face as he had left her here alone, that it had

been her hateful words that had drove him to leave.

The pit of her stomach becoming a knot, Hilde felt her heart crumbling in

her chest, "What have I done?"

The room had no answer for her, as she gazed at all of the broken glass

of the picture frames and broken coffee table she wondered if she had

done unrepairable damage to her and Wufei's happiness.

With a sob she leaned her head into her knees and cried, not just her

pain but Wufei's as well. She knew all too well his pride would not let

him to do so.

AN: I started with a completely deferent idea when I started this but now

it's changed and I have no Idea where it's going.

Merien I think is the name of Wufies wife, if I'm wrong then I'm sorry.

Also this is just a ruff draft so changes other then correcting of

spelling may happen.

Wufei swore his disgust as he walked down the three flight of stairs to

exit the building that held his once happy home. He thought of the

hateful words that Hilde had yelled at him "You wouldn't know how to act

like a decent human being if your life depended on it" with another curse

he slammed the door at the bottom of the steps open and left the whole

building as fast as he could.

All he wanted right then was a 100 lb. punching bag he could wack his

furry at. He wanted to shove Hildes words down her thought and choke her

with them. Mentally slapping him self for the last though he concentrated

on the punching bag idea and remembered his was still at Duos from when

he and Hilde had first moved to room 3B, he remembered how Hilde had

bounced around the one bed room apartment telling him at top speed where

all the furniture would go and how she was going to repaint the bathroom.

Before the pain could take hold of him he pushed the memory of her

smiling face away and tried to hold on to the image of her red and mad

face. Instead of the angered face he saw in his minds eye the hurt in her

larger then life eyes, the trail of tears that went from the corner of

her eyes down to curve under her chin.

With a jagged breath Wufei turned around and looked back, while he was

too far from the building by this time, in his mind and heart he saw

Hilde, smiling at him for just being there. Laughing at his reaction to

finding the toilet seat duct taped down. Teasing him for not liking

Grapefruit. Hurt, confused, and tearful when she fond out that he had

lied, that she wasn't the only woman he had been intament with.

Slowly he started walking again, woodenly and with no destination as the

recollection took up his whole mind.

Coming home from working hard all day Wufei was expecting Hilde to greet

him with a hug and jubilant recounting of her day.

Instead he fond her sitting on the couch, her face as white as snow, her

hands shaking and cold. Thinking her ill he dropped his coat on the floor

and got on his knees in front of her, taking her hands in his he rubbed

them to try and get some warmth back in them.

"Hilde?" It was all he could say as he choked on panic and tried to think

of the Doctors number.

"Is...have you ever.." Hildes voice cracked "Who's Merien?" finally

rushed out of her stiff lips.

A cold hand grabbed at Wufeis heart "How, how did you find out about

Merien?" He demanded in a gruffer voice then he had intended to use.

Jumping up as though struck by lightning Hilde's face contorted into out

rage as she doubled her fists and hit him in the chest, the pain that

he could see in her eyes hurt him more then any of her fiscal blows did.

"How dare you" She all but screamed "How dare you talk about honor while

lying to me every day"

"I never lied to you" Wufei replied as he tried to get a hold on his own

wild emotions 'just how much does she know?' he questioned his self and

grabbed for Hildes fists.

Cole cocking him Hilde sent Wufei in to the coffee table. "You lying

jerk" Wiping her hand across her face to try and hide the tears. "I asked

You if you had ever slept with another woman and you said no" She made

the statement sound like a dirty accusation.

"Merien wasn't a woman"

"That's it? That's all you have to say?" Hilde looked disgusted.

Standing back up Wufei couldn't look at Hilde "I'd rather not talk about

it" He made a move for the kitchen.

"Well maybe I do, did you ever think about that?"

Wufei didn't respond as he pored a cup of coffee and sipped it while

standing with his weight against the counter.

Hilde stomped her way into the kitchen "You self conceited jerk, you

wouldn't know how to act like a decent human being if your life depended

on it"

With a part of his mind lost in the past and another on Hildes angree and

cutting words, he stormed out of the room and then out of the house.
