Sweet Dreams Boys
***Note: This is a sequel to Dreaming of Him so read that first or this won't make much sense to you, or at least the dreams won't though you can probably figure things out. Thanks for reading and as always I don't own anything but the plot.***
Space, a silent world that housed many dangers and where one sees many things that they have never seen before. Everything was quiet in this region of space except for the sound of the quiet engines of the Falcon's Wing, a ship on there way into the unknown like hundreds of explorers before them. So much of space left uncharted and seen the pilots gazed around them and each admiring the sights in there own way. All three of them seasoned pilots they were at home in the sky and yet each of them had a small part of them who'd wished he had stayed on earth. Their mission was a dangerous one and like most missions these men were involved in there was a good chance for injury and even death. Though by most standards young men they were seasoned warriors who through the grace of God and sheer dumb luck had survived battle after battle, war after war. Once again they were off to prevent trouble so that they would not be called on for more serious battle and as they flew through the fast recesses of space their thoughts were on those they'd left back on earth. That and a few other things.
He has a pretty nice right hook Milliardo acknowledged as he put the ice pack on his bruising jaw. He hadn't seen it coming Milliardo admitted to himself in disgust as he ran a hand through his pale blonde hair. Now it was war. If he had been adamant about Relena staying away from the Gundam pilot before it would be nothing compared to now. Hell would freeze over before he let Heero Yuy within feet of his baby sister and that was final. He didn't care what she wanted, it was for the best and she'd realize that eventually. Realizing quickly that he was lying to himself Milliardo silently ran through several four letter words he'd like to say shaking his head at how easy the thought of other man could so easily rile him. Groaning Milliardo realized his mistake as his head began to pound even more thanks to his head movement. What did her pilot see in Yuy anyway. He'd thought his sister was too smart to fall for the heartless bastard but she had and where would it get her? Nowhere. He'd asked Heero right up front about his intentions towards Relena were and what had Heero done, he'd punched me right in the jaw Milliardo said slamming a fist onto the table. Call him an overbearing, overprotective brother but he was not letting Heero get his hands on Relena. He'll get her over my dead body.
Heero knew how to make a death look accidental and was seriously considering it as the only way to make it through this mission. All it would take was a few minutes tops and then this mission would go along smoothly and everything would work out. Sure they'd be one pilot short but he and Wufei had always thrived on a challenge. There were a lot of good reasons to kill him and Heero knew that if need be he could justify his actions. Firstly he'd be sparing Noin from having to be tied to the bastard for the next forty years or so. Two he'd worked for Oz and had been responsible for the deaths of a lot of innocent people. Three he's just asking for it. Heero shook his head at his last reason, that wouldn't go over well. I don't need a good reason Heero decided, no one would ever know it was me and that's that. I'm the perfect soldier after all and I wouldn't be called that if I wasn't capable of covering up murder. But of course he wouldn't kill Milliardo Heero admitted to himself. Oh he'd love to kill the bastard but Relena wouldn't like it and she'd been through enough lose and pain without adding her brother's death to the list. Not that she deserved to have such a jackass for a brother. Relena didn't deserve to have him hanging around either Heero added to himself. He knew Milliardo was such a bastard to him because Milliardo thought that he was a threat to his sister. And maybe I am Heero said with a sad look in his usually emotionless eyes. What Relena did to him should be against the law.
Damn what was the Onna thinking of plotting a course through this system Wufei grumbled as he changed their heading slightly to avoid some possible turbulence. She must have been out of her mind to think this pathetic excuse for a vessel could handle this kind of ride. I t will probably fall to pieces after one blast from an enemy ship Wufei thought with disgust. The ship disgraced the falcon it was named for. And how dare she hug him in public Wufei thought mentally growling, anyone could have seen her!
"Weak Onna." Wufei muttered out loud and then cursed the absent woman for making him talk to himself like some simpleminded fool. The next thing you know she'll have you cooking and cleaning like a woman Wufei told himself in disgust as he checked over the screen to make sure their were no surprises on there way. Turning around he could see Heero quietly cleaning a gun and wondered if the bullets inside would find there way in Milliardo's direction. Milliardo deserved it Wufei thought with a small smile as he remembered Milliardo's face when Heero had up and decked him. Peacecraft had been nagging Yuy for the last couple of weeks and it was about time Heero gave him something back for all his annoyance. Though a man who preferred to handle things in there time and place Wufei had to admit he probably would have killed Milliardo by now. Of course Quatre was right in that they should try to get along for Relena's sake but he doubted the two men, so alike would ever see eye to eye about anything. He'd sent Milliardo to put some ice on his jaw to keep him and Heero separate for a while in the hopes that they'd get themselves under control. And if they didn't he'd kill them both and save their women the trouble.
"Time to check in with Noin and the office. Milliardo care to?" Wufei said with a small smile which he quickly squished. The last thing he needed to do was get Milliardo even more upset the he already was at Heero.
"Why don't you do it Wufei. I'm sure your just dying to talk to Sally." Milliardo said with a glare to let him know he didn't appreciate Wufei's joke. There was no way in hell he was going to let Noin or Relena see his face.
"Your asking for a broken body to go with that jaw Milliardo." Wufei said in a calm tone though inside he was boiling. How dare he insinuate that there was something going on between him and Sally. As if he would ever be interested in that bossy tomboy.
"Just do it Wufei." Heero said as he rolled his eyes.
"Fine I'll do it." Wufei said with a frown. He'd deal with Peacecraft later. Glaring Wufei accessed the communications systems and began putting in codes that would mask their signature and prevent anyone from intercepting their message. After a couple minutes he was able to get Noin on the other line.
"How's it going up there Wufei?" Noin said with a grin as her face came up on the screen. "They driving you off the wall yet."
"I'm well Noin, no thanks to your fiancee and Yuy." Wufei said as he turned in his seat to glare at the two men behind him before turning back to her. "How's everything going there?"
"Were surviving without you three. So where's that fiancee of mine?" Noin said trying to look around Wufei. "He and Heero are in still one piece right."
"They're both still in one piece." Wufei said with a frown.
"What have they done Wufei?" Noin said suspiciously. Mentally groaning Milliardo moved further back and prayed Wufei would temporarily forget his Sally crack. No such luck.
"He'd talk to you but his jaws really sore and it probably isn't a good idea for him to talk to much." Wufei said with one of his rare smiles and Noin had to admit then when he smiled she could see a glimpse of what Sally saw.
"What do you mean sore jaw, what happened Wufei?" Noin said putting her hands on her hips and glaring into the screen. 'What's he done?"
"Heero busted up the pretty boy's jaw." Wufei said using Duo's favourite nickname for the pilot. One of Duo's few shows of intelligence Wufei thought with a smirk.
"Milliardo Peacecraft! Get over here this minute or so help me God I will personally get a ship and come up their and kick your asse. You promised me that if I put Heero on this mission you'd behave. Now Merquise."
"Better do what she says Milliardo before she follows through on her threat." Heero said with a dry chuckle. "Wouldn't want to keep her waiting."
"Awwwwwwww hi Noin." Milliardo said coming to stand beside Wufei, the screen only showing his upper body. "How are things going down there?"
"Let me see your face Zechs." On no Milliardo thought with a groan, he was I trouble. He knew that tone of voice and he was in serious trouble.
Leaning down Milliardo knew better then to try and hide the damage. "How are you Noin."
"Milliardo what happened?" Milliardo felt his heart sink when his sister's face came into view on the screen. Oh he was in for it now Milliardo thought miserably, he could handle them separately but never together.
"Just a small accident Relena, nothing to worry about." Milliardo said shooting her his most charming smile.
"Where's Heero?" Relena demanded copying Noin's mutinous look. He had two very angry females on his hands.
"Oh Heero's behind me working on some stuff. How did that meeting with Mcmaster's Inc. go today Relena?" Milliardo said with a smile. "I hope he didn't give you any problems."
"He hasn't given me any problems since he and Heero had a heart to heart talk. Now I want to see Heero now." Relena said in her Queen of the World voice. In other words there was no getting out of this.
"Don't have time to talk to your big brother?" Milliardo said in his best sympathy inducing look causing Heero to stifle a chuckle behind him. If it would get Milliardo in deep trouble he was happy to stay put, even if it meant missing a chance to talk to Relena.
"Don't even try in Zechs. Heero come over here and lets see the damage." Noin said in her don't mess with me tone.
"I wish I could Noin but I'm afraid Wufei's ordered me not to move, it would be hazardous to my health." Heero said with a rare smile. Take that Peacecraft. This was funnier then killing him, and a lot more painfully for him.
"Milliardo! How could you hurt him that badly? I'm never speaking to you again you jerk. You promised Noin you'd leave him alone. I'm never trusting you ever again." Relena cried looking at him like he'd suddenly grown horns and a tail. Feeling a touch of guilt Heero considered letting Relena see him then changed his mind just as quickly, served him right.
"He's fine Relena, I swear it. He punched me, in the jaw but I didn't lay a hand on him. Ii swear it on my life." Milliardo said desperately. Sensing that they wouldn't believe him Milliardo turned around and grabbing a surprised Heero shoved him over in front of the screen. "See, he's fine."
"Hi Relena, Noin." Heero said looking perfectly calm as he gave them a mock salute to let them know he was fine. "Everything going all right over there?"
"Heero are you okay?" Relena said her face filled with concern. Feeling a little guilty Heero gave her a small smile and a nod.
"I'm fine Relena. Your brother wasn't stupid enough to try and take me on." Heero said paying Milliardo back for upsetting them and arguing with him about his intentions towards Relena.
"You're sure your okay Heero." Noin said in concern as she looked her soldier over. Rather flustered with all the intent and a bit insulted Heero assured them again that he was all right before moving away from the screen to go back to work on the computer in peace.
"That must have been some punch." Noin said with an approving smile. "I wondered how long he'd take your lectures and speeches before he knocked you out."
"Are you insinuating that you think I couldn't take him?" Milliardo said in a huff and despite themselves both Wufei and Heero leaned closer to hear her answer.
"Yes." Noin said with a shrug. "I know your abilities and I have a pretty good idea of his. If he wanted to he could kill you with his bare hands if he wanted to before you got in more then a couple hits."
"NOIN!!" Milliardo yelled not believing what she'd just said. She thought he couldn't take on Yuy? "I can't believe you said that."
"Milliardo. As much as I love you I don't think your perfect. Heero's a better fighter then you and that fact. Just because I think that doesn't mean I don't think there are things your better at then him but this just isn't one of them."
"Burn." Wufei said under his breath as he used another of Duo's slang words. He'd been hanging around Duo far to much lately. But it had to hurt to have your woman say that she thought another man was stronger then him. Especially when he couldn't stand the other guy.
"You know we should get on with business." Noin said sensing that Milliardo wouldn't take kindly to anything involving fighting and Heero. Quickly she brought them up to date on everything that they had learned since the guys left and Wufei updated her on everything that they'd picked up and acquired. Twenty minutes later they signed off with Milliardo still mad, Heero rather flattered and Wufei trying to figure out how he was suppose to keep the two from killing each other before this was all over.
A few hours later.
"Ready to put it on autopilot?" Wufei said switching on navigation for one last inspection.
"I'm ready, who's taking first shift?" Heero asked leaning over the co- pilot's seat. Though it was close to midnight he showed no exhaustion and looked as bright eyed as he had when they'd left.
"I am." Milliardo said stepping forward with a book in hand. Heero smirked as he took in the brilliant shades of purple. "Everything good to go Wufei?"
"Yes. Milliardo's taking first shift, I'm second and your third Heero." Wufei said as he got out of his seat. Changing positions with Milliardo Wufei motioned for Heero to follow him into the sleeping quarters. He knew from experience that Heero hated to trust anyone to take care of things and would likely stay up to watch over Milliardo if given a chance. Wufei intended to keep those two apart if it killed him. Which it possibly could.
"When are we expected to reach our destination?" Heero asked shooting Wufei a knowing look. He knew what his friend was trying to do and was amused by it. If he and Milliardo wanted to go at it they would, Wufei wouldn't be able to stop them.
"We should reach it in twenty-seven hours." Wufei said. "Heero lets head in."
A dream is a wish your heart makes
When you're fast asleep
In dreams you lose your heartaches
Whatever you wish for, you keep.
Have faith in your dreams and someday
Your rainbow will come smiling through
No matter how your heart is grieving
If you keep on believing
The dreams that you wish will come true.
