Kidnapped!
By: BrittbeeLynn Chapter 1: Forgetting Heero
Relena sat wistfully looking out over the beach. Her new home was custom made and she had a balcony where she could look out over the beach and feel the wind in her hair. She was a strong woman of 21. Mature beyond her years. This, she told herself, is the last time I will mourn for Heero Yuy. It had been 3 years since she had last seen Heero. The last time she had been with him was when he collapsed after "shooting" Mariemaia. She had nursed him back to health. Loving him every step of the way.
Now, as Queen of the Cinq Kingdom, she needed to find a husband. If she waited for Heero much longer, she'd be an old maid before she was married. He had disappeared as soon as he was able to walk out of the hospital room without passing out, three years ago.
This rejection had stung and Relena had sulked for a while after that incident. However, Relena eventually grew out of that and decided to grow up. She made herself mature and learn to be Queen, and now she would make herself available to any man who could take her heart.
In becoming Queen, Relena had undergone hours of training. She wanted to be knowledgeable of other ideas, not just her own. Her pacifism ideals, although still strong, were not quite the same. She now believed in a few exceptions to pacifism. She believed that fighting in self-defense was an adequate reason for fighting. After all, she couldn't expect her people to stand around like lambs in a slaughterhouse to be killed. She also felt that it was necessary to go to war in order to stop fighting. You could not always rationalize with irrational people and sometimes you have to fight to get your point across. She promoted peace and worked hard to keep it, but didn't object to countries and colonies having a defense army.
Now for the ball, she told herself. This was a special ball that most everyone who fought for peace was invited to. It was a getting to know you ball. We, united in peace, should know each other in order to better promote our ideals, her invitation had said. In reality, her motive for the ball was simple; she was going to look for guys. She had at least a hundred young men around her age. She had, of course, invited lots of women and older men and women as well.
Relena slipped on her new dress. It was beautiful and pure white in color. The dress was not too loose and not too tight, but snug; elegantly fanning out towards the bottom. Although she was grown up, she loved to twirl and see it spin. She completed her ensemble with white heels, the latest in fashion. Her hair was now down to her waist in the back and sloped up to encircle her face in the front. Beautifully curled, her hair encircled her face.
It was time for the ball, and as the host she needed to be on time. With a final spray of her Cucumber Melon body spray, she was off. (AN: I had to put the Cucumber melon spray, LoL, I LOVE that stuff, from Bath and Body Works...back to the story.)
When she arrived, Relena was amazed to find that many people were already there. She walked down the stairs and men's jaws literally dropped. My gosh, she thought, this is pitiful, I can see them drooling. You'd think they'd never seen a pretty girl before in their lives! She gracefully smiled at everyone, a skill she'd learned: to make everyone think you were looking directly at him or her.
The Gundam pilots were with their girlfriends and/or wives (AN: In case you don't know my favorite parings, they are: Duo & Hilde, Trowa & Cathy, Quatre & Dorothy, and Wufei & Sally....Heero & Relena) Relena didn't expect to see Heero there, but sure as day he was. Ug, she thought, exasperated with the man. He shows up now of all times. However, this was a test of her new resolve and she would pass it. Relena showed no reaction to Heero. He was blatantly staring at her, but she carefully looked away.
When she arrived at the bottom of the stairs, she was attacked. Not literally, but she was surrounded by men. Her sister-in-law, Noin, soon came to her rescue. Disappointed, the guys left her alone and sat down. Relena hugged Noin, Zechs, Quatre, and the rest of the girls, and shook hands with the rest of the gundam pilots that were not as close to her, including Heero. Her eyes were emotionless as she shook his hand, a special trick she had learned from Heero himself.
"Today, I'm going to dance with every guy here," she declared to her friends.
She then went off to do just that, leaving an astonished bunch of people behind her.
~*~*~
"Is Lena ok?" asked a worried Duo.
"She's decided she doesn't want to be an old maid before she marries," Zechs replied angrily giving Heero a glare that could kill. "Heero, I'd like to have a word with you," Zechs told Heero while gritting his teeth.
"Fine." was his emotionless reply.
"Ohhhh... there's gonna be a fight!!" Duo exclaimed happily and followed them outside with a curious Hilde by his side.
~*~*~
"Listen, I don't know what you think you're doing, showing up like this after 3 years, but you'd better not so much as touch Relena. She's suffered enough from you already," Zechs commanded Heero.
"I have no intention of going anywhere near her," Heero lied. He actually couldn't get the picture he'd just seen out of his head. She'd been beautiful, like an angel. He had wanted to go up to her with those other men and ask her to dance as well.
"Well, then WHY did you come?" Zechs demanded
"Because I was invited," Heero replied in monotone
"You never came to any other events that you were invited to! Look, I don't have time to argue with you. STAY AWAY FROM RELENA!" and with that, Zechs stormed off to the ball. He would make sure to keep an eye on Heero Yuy.
"Fine," Heero stated. However, he had no intention of doing that, he just didn't want to get all bloody now.
~*~*~
Relena was not enjoying this dance. She felt that the men she had met were only after her title and not finding someone to love. Relena felt someone's eyes on her and turned around. Standing there, with shockingly blonde hair, and intense green eyes, was one of the most handsome men she had ever seen. When she looked his way, he locked his eyes on hers. Blushing, she broke his gaze and turned. Who is he? she thought. I've never seen him before, and I'm pretty sure I'd remember him. She turned back and noticed he was gone. What was going on? When she turned around again, he was standing in front of her. He casually linked her arm with his and led her to the dance floor.
"Hello, Relena," he greeted.
The first thought that came to Relena's mind was, his voice was emotionless, just like Heero's. Shoot, why can't I forget Heero. He's gone! The man was staring at her with his beautiful green eyes expectantly.
"Oh, excuse me," she stated embarrassed, "Hello to you too!" She flashed him her winning smile and hoped he wouldn't be offended by her spaciness.
"Do you know who I am?" he asked in that same emotionless voice.
"No, I don't believe we've met before. Might I ask your name?"
"Certainly. I'm Jordan."
"What position do you hold?"
"I'm the great grandson of the Chief Peace Space Ambassador and am currently in college. I'm studying to become an Ambassador as well. Since my great grandfather was not feeling well, he sent me in his place," Jordan responded.
"Oh," was all she said, feeling more and more stupid as the conversation progressed.
"Do I make you nervous Relena?"
"Um, a little," she blushed at her frank reply and looked down.
Taking her chin in his hand, he lifted her head and looked deep into her eyes. Relena felt as if he could read her mind. She was unnerved, yet he seemed so kind, so familiar, that she didn't turn away when he bent down and tenderly kissed her. He pulled back and searched her eyes.
"Thank you for the dance Relena," he stated, emotionless once again. Jordan disappeared into the crowd, leaving her with several gaping, not to mention jealous, men. Relena ran up the stairs to her room and locked the door. She didn't know what was going on. Jordan had been so confident in kissing her, it almost made her mad, but she had enjoyed the kiss and longed for another. She felt as if she had known him forever. Forgetting Heero wasn't so hard at this point in time....
Summary: Relena has been waiting for Heero for three years, but he hasn't come and she's not waiting any longer. She needs to continue in her life, but can she? Sometimes circumstances are what it takes to change someone, and Relena is ready to make her own future.
