Lost In The Night-Part 3





~*~Relena's POV~*~

I watch Heero leave in the car quickly and can't control my sobs as
I lose sight of him. Why is this happening? Everything had been so
perfect, we had all been so happy...Why is there always someone trying
to steal the peace and happiness away?

I feel my brother's comforting arms envelope me in a hug, and I tear my
gaze away from the road that Heero had just driven down. I appreciate it
that Milliardo is trying so hard to help me, but the words of comfort
he whispers to me are just making me more upset, making me more sure
that all of this is really happening.

He leads me into the living room and helps me down onto the couch. I
bury my face in my hands and hear the sound of Noin's voice. I look
up and see her face, which is full of concern. Milliardo begins explaining
to her what had happened, but his words are just a blur to me.

Am I going to lose Heero again, after I had finally settled down with
him just like I had always dreamed of? He has changed so much, would tell
me what he was feeling, even though he still doesn't like to admit it when
he is hurt or unsure of something. He is finally forgetting the memories
in his past of pain and torture, replacing them with the new things in
life.

He has a son. Something he probably never thought he would have. Somehow
I think Odin has broken away more of the stone wall that had been around
Heero's heart than I have. Odin has shown him something more in life.
Heero didn't have a father to love him when he was young, but Odin has
givin Heero the opportunity to be the loving father.

I think of just last week and how Odin had covered himself in syrup when Heero and I weren't looking, and then they had both chased me through
the house and caught me.

More tears come to my eyes and I feel my body shake with sobs after just
thinking about what it was like to have them with me...But now they seem
so far away...

I wipe my tears away and force myself to regain my composure. I sit up and watch Noin sit on the couch beside me. She puts her arms around me and pats my back comfortingly, but nothing anyone can say or do will relieve my grief.

*I believe in you, Heero. I know you will come back...With Odin* I think
silently, wishing that he could sense my thoughts.


~*~Heero's POV~*~

I hate to leave her like that, to see the pain clearly showing on her face. I promised her I would come back safely...For once I will keep my promise.

I drive down the road, going as fast as this car will allow. I know where they've taken Odin. I am going to outer space...And nothing is stopping me. Mission accepted.

The spaceport is barely visible in the dark night. I jump out of the car as fast as I can and sprint into the building, ignoring the stares of the people waiting for their shuttle flights. I hurry torwards the counter where people are in line getting their passports. I don't pay attention to the people in line and go to the counter, impatiently banging my fists down once to get the young attendant's attention.

"Hey, you can't just cut in front of me like that!" I hear someone yell angrily behind me.

I turn around abruptly and give him the death glare, watch him back up, and then I turn back to the attendant.

"Sir, he was in line first..." the attendant begins.

"I KNOW that. Listen, I need to know if a man named Jase Ginu was on the last shuttle that left." I say firmly.

"I'm not supposed to give out that information..." the attendant says uneasily.

"WAS he on the last shuttle that left?" I demand.

"Sir, I-"

"Don't give me that bullshit!" I say loudly, not quite yelling yet but getting there.

The attendant finally gives in and turns to the computer. I wait impatiently, silently cursing myself because I wasn't getting this done quicker.

"Um...Yes sir, he was." the attendant finally answers.

"Where is the shuttle's destination?" I ask impatiently.

"I really shouldn't be..." he says.

I glare in warning that I was getting even angrier and he quickly glances back down at the computer.

"L1, sir." he replies.

"I need a passport to L1. When is the next shuttle leaving?" I ask.

"Fifteen minutes." he says.

"Good." I sigh, handing him my I.D. and filling out the necessary paperwork as quickly as possible. He gives me my passport and I head torwards the gate.

Suddenly, I think *Believe in me, Relena. I will come back...With Odin.*
