"I still can't believe this!" Melody muttered angrily to herself at her computer. She twisted his ring on her finger. I can't believe he forgot our 2 year anniversary. We've been together for a whole 2 years and he doesn't remember!! I guess I'm not that important to him anymore. He better have a good excuse by noon or he is going to be history!!
"Melody?" A soft voice came from the doorway. It was him. Trowa, in his usual dark green sweater that matched his eyes and a pair of jeans. He hesitated , feeling uncomfortable under Melody's intense glare. "Please tell me why you haven't said a word to me today. Why are you so mad at me?" He had been pleading to her all day only to have her walk away or slam a door in his face. But he was feeling close to giving up.
She turned back to her computer pretending to be more interested in the html codes than him. She wasn't about to give him the satisfaction of seeing how much she wanted to tell him what was wrong that was written all over her face. He sighed and walked to the door, but gave her one last look before leaving. She heard the door shut softly behind him.
"He's going to have to figure it out for himself." Feeling her heart sink, she sighed. I wish he would remember.
The door opened once more. She turned, hoping it was Trowa with a bundle of flowers or something that would reassure her that he had not forgotten. She smile dropped , as did her heart, when she saw it was only her friend Twilight.
"Wow. You're happy to see me." Twilight said in her usual sarcastic tone of voice.
"Sorry, Twi. This whole thing with Trowa is messing me up a bit, I guess." Twilight could tell her friend's heart was sinking fast. "He still hasn't remembered." She added softly.
"I'm sorry Melody." Was all Twilight could get out, but she wanted to be able to drag Trowa into the room and have everything back to the way it used to be. It seemed so long since Melody and Trowa were the almost inseparable couple. It always made Twilight feel so alone in this world, but seeing them together, also, made her believe that if she held on for one more day she would find her true love. They always seemed to have the perfect relationship. She always wanted to be with them when they were together, but she was always herself back by her fear of clowns. She looked out the window to see Trowa huddled in his coat on the porch below. The wind was blowing hard and cold against him. I guess it's kind of fitting, seeing how their relationship is breaking apart. Wind always seems to know the right time to blow.
Melody watched her friend's face fall dramatically for a few minutes before talking, "I guess I'll go find the box for the ring, huh?" She said standing up. Twilight continued to watch Trowa.
"I guess..........Man, I hate to see you two guys break up just because one of you didn't remember something...........I know that's a major thing to forget, but..............you seem so perfect for each other." she sighed in defeat. "I guess I can help you look for it." She turned to Melody who was staring at the floor. She seemed to be going over something in her head.
"You know, I don't think I'd hurt Quatre, if you accidentally let it slip to him what happened....." She began.
Twilight's eyebrows raised in surprise, "Are you giving in?"
Melody crossed her arms, "No, because I'm not telling anyone anything, and who says I still won't be mad?" She demanded. Twilight watched her expression soften as she looked out the window. ".........it's so cold out there............I hope he's ok."
"You still love him, don't you?"
"Yeah, he just made me really mad......Aren't you going to go tell Quatre about all this?"
Twilight smiled actwardly, "He went to town. Why don't we tell someone else? Or I could just tell him myself...............even if I hate clowns.....I'm sure I could tell him............I could just think that I'm doing it for you and then I might not be afraid........."
"No, that's ok.....How about Duo? He's got a big mouth and he should around here somewhere..."
"Please rethink that, Melody....Duo hardly ever gets his information right......We both know that..."
"True, true.........How about Wufei?..........or Heero??..........No one else really knows him well...."
Twilight shook her head, "I can try...............Everyone else won't work......Wufei is a `high horsed man' and Heero doesn't exactly like to show emotion........"
"I know!!!" Melody exclaimed, "Catherine!!!!! We can use Catherine!!!!................wait....She's on L-3 it will take too long for her to get here!!"
"Then who?" Twilight was hoping her friend could think of more people because she couldn't herself.
