A/N: Wrote this a long time ago...found it in my collection of old fanfics so I thought I would touch it up and put it up. Hope you like.
Chapter One
"Heero! You're back!" Kira cried excitedly as she flew into his arms, hugging him tightly. Heero stiffened and only gave her a half-hug. Her violet eyes looked up into his blue eyes. "How did it go?" she asked, grabbing his hand and pulling him into the safe house they all shared. Heero looked at Trowa who smirked. "Mission accomplished!" Trowa said. One inside, they were greeted by the other pilots, Duo, Quatre and Wufei. Heero and Trowa dropped their bags at the foot of the stairs. "I just finished making lunch. I'll go get it and we can eat it in the living room." Kira said as she walked into the kitchen.
Duo was talking excitedly to both or the pilots who had returned. Where did they go? What was the mission? Heero and Trowa tried answering the many questions he had, without giving too much of the mission away, as they took their seat on the sofas. As Quatre and Wufei tried to calm down their hyper friend, Trowa leaned over and whispered a question in Heero's ear. "When are you going to tell her?" Heero shrugged and remained quiet. "Should tell her soon...before she finds out and all..."
A few minuets later, Kira walked out of the kitchen carrying a tray full of tuna fish sandwiches and put them down on the coffee table in front of the two sofas. She grabbed one and sat down next to Heero as he and the others quickly grabbed their sandwiches before Duo had the chance to eat them all. When she was finished, she leaned her chin on Heero's shoulder and played with his hair that was hanging lower over his ears. "I'm glad you're back, safely." she said quietly. "I love you Heero."
Heero remained silent as he caught a glance of Trowa giving him the disapproved look. He sighed. How was he going to break up with her? He had to break up with her, there was no two ways about it. Just then, he heard the sound of the doorbell ring, followed by a knock on the door, followed by Relena's pesky voice. "Heero? Are you here? Are you ready now?" Kira got up when no one else did and sighed as she opened the door. Relena's dirty-blonde hair blew in the wind and her blue eyes glared at Kira. "Oh, its you." she said rudely. "Is Heero ready yet?"
Kira looked at the other girl in confusion. "Ready for what? He just got home Relena!" Relena laughed her really annoying laugh, then smirked at Kira. "You don't know yet? Didn't Heero tell you? He was supposed to dump you." Kira looked at her and almost laughed, but her heart fluttered in fear. "W-why would he dump me?" she asked. Relena brushed some of her long hair out of her face and put her hands on her hips.
"Because Kira, he's always liked me more. Isn't it obvious? He just used you to make me jealous." she smirked. Kira shook her head. No, not Heero. He wouldn't do that. He loved her, they were happy...weren't they? She blinked back the tears that had already formed as she watched Relena run by her and to Heero, embracing him in a hug. Upon seeing Relena hugging Heero, they looked baffled at him, especially Duo. He looked from Heero to Kira and back again. Kira closed the door, feeling sick and confused and looked at Heero.
"I-is..is it true Heero?" she asked him, trembling. Her heart shattered when he looked at her. Blue, cold eyes, the eyes she remembered when she first met him, she had to look down at the floor. "Tell her Heero." she heard Relena say. "Tell her how you want to be with me. How we belong together!" Heero sighed and ran a hand through his hair as he turned around and started walking to the kitchen. "Relena and I are..dating." He almost couldn't say it. "Sorry Kira. It was fun, but now I need to move on with the one I truly belong with."
Kira grabbed her chest. It felt like she was having a heart attack. She looked at Relena and just wanted to punch her. After all the ups and downs they encountered, she really felt that he loved her. Really loved her. How could Heero do this to her? She blinked rapidly, feeling the tears but they wouldn't stop coming. Kira turned and ran out the door not stopping for her brothers or Quatre's calls. She ran through the woods that surrounded their happy little dysfunctional family house, tripping over roots and rocks and other stuff. The last root Kira tripped over, she landed in the dirt, hard. She didn't move, she was trying to catch her breath and clear her vision from the tears that would not stop. She decided in the end to just curl up and cry.
Kira awoke to the gentle sound of a hoot. She looked around as she brushed strands of her long chestnut brown hair out of her face. She almost forgot where she was or why she ended up here. Her heart pang and she grabbed her chest as she slowly stood. It was twilight and soon the darkness would come and she would have no chance knowing how to get back to the house. She walked for a bit then sighed when she felt the first few drops of rain. Just my luck, she snorted to herself. Just then it started to downpour. The rain was chilly but tonight it didn't bother her. She was feeling pretty numb already.
When she reached the house, she saw that the lights were off. She quietly opened the front door and walked in. The house seemed to be quiet. Kira walked upstairs wanting to have a shower and dry clothes. She passed Wufei's room and could hear the sound of the TV on, but Duo and the rooms that Quatre and Trowa used were dark and empty. She stopped outside the room that she and Heero had been sharing since they began dating. She took a deep breath and opened the door and stepped in.
Her eyes adjusted to the darken room and what she saw made her gasp. The blankets were around Heero's hips and laying against his bare chest was a naked Relena. Kira quickly turned around and walked back into the hall. She shivered in disgust as she quickly walked back down the hall and back down the stairs. She sat down on the sofa and realized that she was clenching her hands into tight balls. She took some deep breaths to calm herself down, grabbed the thin quilted blanket and stretched out on the sofa, wrapping the blanket around her. She curled up and could hear the soft thunk as her long hair hit the floor. She shivered as she fell back into an uneasy sleep.
