A/N: I could've sworn that I had atleast half of this chapter written up on here... But since I didn't add anything to it, after 60 days it was deleted from my files. I had to re-read most of what I wrote to get an idea of what I originally had wanted to happen next. I'm wicked sorry that I haven't written in almost a year! I had even completely forgot that I started this story back in 2008, it was a mind-blown moment and everything when I noticed.

But, I have atleast one good excuse for not writing... My dad passed away not too long after I last updated, and I had kind of lost interest in alot of things I used to do, like writing and other hobbies. But, thanks so much to everyone who has stuck with me! You don't know how much I really appreciate it.

Also, since I re-read a ton.. I noticed that alot of my words are messed up. It makes me look like I can't speak english . my only excuse for that is that I always write at like 2 in the morning... I should probably not be so lazy anymore and read over what I've written before I post it. Sorry about that.

Summary: One year after graduation, Usagi dreams of memories she had with an old but special friend. Usagi's POV. R&R please and thank you.

Dream Catch Me - Chapter 06: Catch Me

I smelled the obnoxious fumes from the antibiotics that must've been around me before I even woke up.

I kept my eyes shut for a few minutes trying to get used to the bright lights above me.

After a while I opened my eyes and looked around, which was kind of hard since I was strapped down.

"Uhm, what the..?" My voice sounded horrible and I could barely get my words out completely.

A woman to my left turned around with a shocked look on her face, from the looks of it she was a nurse, "You're awake! Please wait one moment, dear. I'm going to go get the doctor."

She left quickly but silently and I scanned the room with my eyes and realized that I was in a hospital room.

Moments later the nurse returned with a slightly old man following behind her.

He pulled out his stethoscope and checked my heart beat before nodding his head to himself and standing up straight.

"Miss Tsukino, I hope you are not alarmed, you're probably wondering why you are here. First, I will tell you, that you are going to be just fine. You've been in a coma for almost a month, and during that time your body has been healed of any broken bones you had after the car accident. Now, I must ask you, do you remember what happened?"

I thought for a moment and remembered the car that almost hit Heero, the one that hit me after I pushed him out of the way.

"Yes." I forced my voice to give out an audible answer.

"That's good. There may be a few things you don't remember, but there also may not. As far as tests show, your brain activity is completely stable. Now, we have you strapped down so you wouldn't move when you woke up. Although your body is healed, you will still need a couple of days of rehab to get used to moving your bones again. If you will stay as still as possible then we can undo the straps holding you down."

I nodded my head, which I noticed didn't hurt at all, and the nurse stepped forward and let me free.

"Any time you need to move, if you want to sit up or anything we will be sure to have a nurse help you do that until you are used to moving again. This is all just a precaution to make sure you are okay."

I smiled at him and he nodded in return and turned to leave while the nurse started back on what she had been doing before I woke up.

I could feel the dryness in my mouth from not having anything to drink in a long time, but I put it out of my mind for a little while longer.

I was trying to figure out what Heero had been doing there that day.

Why hadn't he called to let me know he was back?

Did he give up completely on me because I said I wouldn't wait?

I was so stupid for saying that to him.

I cleared my throat and turned my attention to the nurse, "Could I have a drink of water?"

My voice was starting to sound better, but I knew that not even some water would fix it completely.

"Oh, sure thing, dear!"

She quickly walked outside with a cup in her hand to a water fountain and came back to my bedside.

"Now, I'll help you sit up to drink it first."

I nodded and she helped keep me steady while I pushed myself up against my pillow.

She handed me the cup and I silently contemplated on how weak my body really was.

I sipped on my water and looked out the window to my right while she went back to what she was doing again.

I finished up my drink after a few moments and settled down into the pillows.

"You know, there's been a young man coming here everyday to visit you. Later, during visiting hours, he will sure be surprised to see you up."

Almost too quickly I spun my head around towards her, and she smiled at me while putting something up in the cabinets next to my bed.

"Re.. really? Do you know his name?"

My voice sounded considerably better, and much more clearer.

"Yes, and I'm sorry, I never asked. He sounds like someone important."

"Yeah... Very important."

She finished up whatever she was doing, it looked like cleaning and organizing and said goodbye before leaving me alone in the room.

"It couldn't be him..."

-------

I was watching the summer scenery outside of my window when I heard them announce that it was visiting hours.

I tried not to hold my breath.

I could hear a couple of people trying to be quiet while they walked down the halls to see their loved ones.

A few minutes had passed and I was now staring intently at the doorway, trying to keep my hopes up.

If he had come every single day before, why would he suddenly stop now?

He probably just didn't come right when visiting hours started.

Only moment later, I heard someone walking quickly down the hall and felt myself let out the breath I didn't know I was holding.

Heero turned into the doorway and stopped abruptly while mirroring the same look of shock I had on my own face.

"Usagi.. You're awake?"

I nodded my head and smiled at him when he walked over to me and pulled me into a huge hug.

I returned the hug as best I could with my weak arms and saw the nurse from earlier spying on us through the door over his shoulder.

When she noticed I saw her she awkwardly turned away down the hall.

"I'm so happy that you're alright. I've been waiting almost all month for you to get up."

He pulled away after a long while and grabbed the chair beside him and sat down right next to me.

"How are you feeling?"

"I'm fine. I'm incredibly weak right now, but otherwise fine. The doctor said that after a couple days of rehab then I'll be completely okay."

He nodded and turned towards the window and after a few moments of not saying anything I looked outside too.

"Heero?"

"Yes?"

I thought my words over carefully, "When exactly did you get back to Japan?"

He took a moment before responding, "The morning you got into that accident."

"Why didn't you tell me?"

I forced myself to look back at him and he still stared out of the window.

"I was going to surprise you, actually. I had been on the way to your house when you showed up at that corner."

He turned to look at me with a sad smile on his face.

"Oh... really?"

He nodded and looked back to the window, "I know you said you wouldn't wait for me, but I said I would no matter what."

I couldn't help but let myself smile like an idiot, "I never should have said that. But, thank you, Heero."

He turned back to me and smiled in return.

He stayed and talked with me about how everything went in America and how he was doing the past month until the nurse walked in and said visiting hours was over.

"I'll come back to see you tomorrow."

"Okay, goodbye."

He waved and walked out of the door.

"He really must mean alot to you, and you to him."

I smiled at the nurse and nodded in reply.

"Now, you must be tired and probably have alot on your mind. You should get some rest so we can start your rehab tomorrow."

She helped me lay back down and turned out the lights before leaving.

I looked at the clock on the wall, which said it was almost eight, and I realized how tired I actually was.

Settling down, I let myself fall once again.

-------

"Finally! They said a couple of days but that felt like forever!"

I walked out of the hospital and breathed in the fresh almost end of July air.

My rehab had finally finished and the doctors deemed me able to be checked out of the hospital and go back home.

I pulled out my phone and dialed Heero's number and waited a few seconds till he answered, "Hey, I'm almost there. I got held back at work for a few minutes."

"Okay, I'll see you in a bit."

I hung up and walked to the pick up area and sat down on a bench to wait for him.

He said he wanted to take me out somewhere as soon as I was able to.

He refused to tell me where we were going though.

I saw his car coming and I stood up and walked towards where he would stop.

He pulled up and I got inside, "Hey! You going to tell me where we're going yet?"

"No, you'll just have to wait until we get there."

"Aww, that's no fair."

"It's plenty fair. By the way, you look nice today."

I smiled at him, "Don't I always?"

"Yes, but today I thought I should tell you."

I felt myself blush and hoped it didn't really show on my face.

"Well, thank you. You always look pretty nice yourself."

He smiled and I looked outside the window trying to get an idea of where we were going.

We rode in a comfortable silence for a few more minutes until I saw a familiar amusement park sign in the direction we were headed.

"Are we.. going there?"

I pointed to the sign and he looked at me and nodded.

"Oh."

That was the same amusement park where I had told him I loved him about four months ago.

'Why are we going there?'

He pulled into the parking lot and when we got closer to the entrance he handed me a ticket to get inside.

Once we got inside we stopped to decide where to go first.

"I know you just got out of the hospital, so if you think you need to rest then let me know."

"I will. So, where should we go first?"

Heero pulled out a park map that the lady at the entrance had given us and I looked it over, "How about that roller coaster, the one that's closest to us right now."

"Alright then, let's go."

He lead the way and we got in the line, which wasn't that long.

We waited in line for about ten minutes before it was out turn to go.

"Does this thing have loops?"

Heero looked at me as we got into our seats with a skeptic look on his face, "Yes, didn't you look?"

"No.. I wasn't paying much attention."

"Well... You can always hold my arm if you get too scared."

I finished buckling in my seat belt as tight as I could and then reached over with both arms to grab onto him.

"You should probably atleast hold onto the bar in front of you with one hand."

"Oh, you're right."

I let go of him with one arm and grabbed on tightly to the bar that was pushed down close to me to keep me held down.

We waited for a minute or two as the ride supervisors checked everyone's seat belts and then started the ride.

"Oh my god, Heero."

"We've barely just started moving."

He laughed at me as we started going up to the first drop.

-------

"Why did we go on all of biggest roller coasters for anyway?"

Heero walked up to me while stretching out his arm, "I don't know, but I think you were lying about being weak in the hospital."

I smiled sheepishly at him, "Sorry, haha."

"So, where should we go next?"

"The Haunted House!"

"Why? So you can finish ripping my arm off?"

He grinned at me as I slightly slapped his arm.

"No, I just feel the need to get out all the rest of my screaming. Then we can settle down on some smaller rides."

"Okay then, but as long as you hold on to my other arm. I don't think my right one can take anymore."

We got in line for the Haunted House and I grabbed onto his left arm.

Once it was our turn to go, I let out the breath I was holding and gripped harder on his arm.

We walked in and immediately a demonic like monster jumped out at us and I could hear my scream echoing all around us.

"Geez, they couldn't give me a few seconds to prepare myself?"

Heero just laughed and started down the rest of the way.

We were almost all the way through and a ghost like creature with blood pouring off it's head jumped out and scared me enough to make me jump back and let go of Heero.

"Hah, what are you doing?"

Heero stepped over to me and grabbed my hand and led me around the bloody ghost towards the exit.

"Man, they saved the best for last. Half of this stuff wasn't here last time we came."

"I think they change it every year."

"That would make sense."

"Although you'd probably still scream even if it was the exact same one we went through last time."

We made it out the exit and walked to the nearest concession stand for a drink.

"I'll have a lemonade."

Heero asked for a water and pulled out a five from his back pocket.

After walking for a while looking for something small to ride on, I noticed that Heero was still holding my hand.

I felt myself blush and forced myself to not ask him about it.

It probably didn't mean anything to him.

He looked at me and I took a long sip of my drink so I wouldn't have to say anything just yet.

"How about we go on the ferris wheel? It's starting to get a little late and the scenery will be beautiful from up there."

I tried not to choke on my drink at the mention of the ferris wheel.

"The ferris wheel? Umm... okay."

He smiled and pulled me in the direction of the end of the line.

After a few minutes the line behind us started getting longer and longer.

"Looks like we made it just in time."

I nodded in reply and after the next booth came down we got inside.

I sat across from him and was sad for a moment after he let go of my hand.

Once we started moving again I turned my attention to the window next to me and tried not to think of the last time we were here.

We rode in silence to the top and I wondered if he was going to say anything.

I knew I was going to keep my mouth shut this time.

"Usagi?"

I hesitantly looked at him, "Yeah?"

"Do you remember the last time we were here? And what you told me?"

'Crap! Shit! Hell! This is just my luck...'

I paused for just a moment before answering, "Yes, of course. Why?"

"You said... you told me that you loved me and ran off as soon as we stopped. I told you that I couldn't return your feelings since I was going to America and didn't know when I would be coming back."

"Yeah, I remember."

He turned to the window and didn't say anything for a few seconds.

"Last month, before I got back to Japan, my boss called me into his office because he had something he wanted to talk to me about. He asked me if I would move permanently to America and take up a position in the Preventer's Headquarters there and eventually take his place when he retired."

I held my breath, 'Is that why he came back? To say goodbye?'

He was still looking outside the window and I looked down at my hands in my lap.

"I told him I couldn't." I quickly looked back up at him and he finally turned back to me, "I told him I never had any intention of staying in America longer than I had to. So, he sent me back here to my old job without another word."

"Why didn't you stay? That must've been a really good offer."

"I already told you. I promised I would come back no matter what."

"But I had already given up on you. I hadn't heard from you in almost six months."

"I know. At first, I didn't call because I was busy. Then after a while I didn't call because I couldn't think of what I'd say after breaking my promise."

I bit the inside of my cheeks to keep myself from crying.

"It just sort of got worse and worse. Then I couldn't bring myself to call because I didn't want to hear you say you hate me."

"I never hated you..."

"Yeah, I know that now. When I got back and you got in that accident I didn't know what to do. I thought I was going to regret not telling you how I felt forever, because at first no one was sure you were going to make it."

I let go of my cheeks and let my tears fall, "How you felt..?"

Heero looked down at the floor for a moment before looking back at me, "Usagi, I love you. I've loved you long since before I left for America. I thought telling you the opposite would keep from hurting you since I was leaving. But-"

"You love me?"

"Yes. I love you."

A/N: I'm still deciding whether or not this will be the end. I started this over a year ago and feel bad that it's taken me so long to write it. So ending it sounds like a good idea. I guess if I ever come up with something to add onto it then I'll make like a short sequel or a oneshot sequel. But for now, this is what I consider the end. It's sort of like a happy ending that I hope will lead you to try to imagine what happens next instead of me writing something that might ruin your expectations...

This last chapter was probably the easiest to write, it took me about only 3-4 hours. That's like a new record for this story. I hope Heero and his cute flirting here doesn't seem too OOC... it wasn't till I was halfway through that I realized I was making him flirt like crazy too xD ... It's cute tho, so ok.

Thank you soooo much to everyone who read this story, it was the first I felt like posting and it means alot to me. I hope you enjoyed it!

The End.
