Disclaimer: I am a broke college student. I obviously do not
GundamWing or this wonderfully fitting song. If at any point in
time you were under the impression that I owned either, I can refer you to a
local psychiatrist. For those of you unfamiliar with the song, it
was sung by the late Selena.
A Boy Like That
Two young ladies sat quietly chatting over tea in an open
diner. The birds
were chirping, the sun was shining, and a light breeze
carrying the scent of
an earlier shower. The world seemed fresh and renewed.
"Miss Relena, or just Relena, if I may be so bold. What
could you tell me
about your previous relationship with one Heero Yuy?"
"Relationship? With Heero? Well, let's say that it is
not you more common
boy meets girl story." she said in a low voice.
The name alone still evoked so many memories. She
recalled the scene at
the beach where she discovered this mysterious boy, and when
in a small part
she began to fall in love with him. If only she could have
known what his
presence would lead up to. That all seemed so long ago, a
lifetime at
least. What a foolish girl she had been. She was so sure
that she could
make him love her. All her life she had lived a very
pampered life in
which anything was hers for the asking, but finally here was
something she
could not have. It was probably this that intigued her the
most. The
mystery of Heero.
{A boy like that}
{Who'd kill you brother}
{Forget that boy and find another}
{One of your own kind}
{Stick with you own kind}
{A boy like that, like that.}
"Well," Relena began, "we met on the beach. He, being
part of Operation
Meteor, had just crashed into the water after an encounter
with Zechs
Merquise and a few of his men."
"But isn't Zechs Merquise also you brother Milliardo
Peacecraft?"
"That he is, but this was not know at this time. I then
proceeded to pull
of the helmet of this soldier to discover that he couldn't be
much older
that myself. He ran off before I could learn his name, but I
would later
find out his code name Heero Yuy. Heero and I attended the
same school for
a short time before he transferred for another mission. I
then began to
follow him around, or stalk, as some might better phrase it.
Things were
extremely chaotic in my life, and I hoped that some of his
strength might
rub off on me. Perhaps it did, but the point is now
irrelevant. One thing
stayed constant throughout this entire escapade and that was
Heero's threats
to destroy me."
{A boy like that will give you sorrow}
{You'll meet another boy tommorow}
{One of your own kind}
{Stick to your own kind}
{A boy like that}
{A boy like that}
"Granted, Heero could never actually pull that trigger.
He could however
take a little piece of the heart that I gave so willingly. I
craved his
attention like a potent drug, but little was ever given. I
had then began
to realize that he would never return my love. The blow was
at first
crushing, you see."
"However did you recover? I am not sure that I could live
without him in
my life." replied the other woman.
"At first, I couldn't handle it. I must admit that
several times that I
seriously contemplated suicide as a way to end all of my pain.
It was
during this time that I met my guardian angel, Wufei."
"A knight in shining armor, eh?"
"You could say that. He became my pillar of strength. He
was so much like
Heero, yet so different. The main conflict between us,
however is our
thoughts on this past war. I see it as nothing more than the
senseless loss
of life. He, on the other hand, sees it as a way of
fulfilling 'justice'
and ensuring tranquility. I guess this will be the first of
many
differences."
{A boy who kills can not love}
{A boy who kills has no heart}
{And he's a boy that gets you love}
{And gets you heart}
{Maria, very smart}
"Enough about me and my life. How have you been doing,
Silvia?"
"As well as can be expected, I suppose. My family and I
are in good
health, and my relationship with Heero seems to be developing
at a mutually
confortable rate. The only problem is..."
"What's wrong?"
"He has just seemed so distant lately. It's like he
doesn't have time to
spend with me, and resents the time that he does."
"You shouldn't worry yourself much over it. This is Heero
after all.
Delightful as this has been, I am afraid that I must take my
leave now. I
have an appointment in thirty minutes, and traffic is looking
questionable.
Bye."
"Good-bye, Relena. Oh, and I really appreciate the
advice."
"Not a problem. Bye, Silvia."
{A boy like that}
{Wants one thing only}
{And when he's gone}
{He'll leave you lonely}
{He'll murder your love}
{He murdered mine}
"Silvia?"
"Yes, Relena?"
"I hope that we can have more talks like this one. If you
ever need
anything, even if it is just to talk, you know where to reach
me."
"Thanks, that means a lot to me. Now go! You wouldn't
want to miss you
meeting."
"Right."
{Just wait and see, wait and see}
