Chapter 12: Whirlwind of Emotions Part 1
"New associates? Meaning…" Jazmine leapt out of her seat, approached Duo and gave him a hug.
"Woah! Slow down Jaz! I'm happy too, but slow down!" Duo said, making all of them laugh. All of course, except Wufei, Heero and Trowa. Wufei was still cursing while Heero was glaring at Duo and Jazmine. 'This is a mission, falling in love is unacceptable.' Heero stated.
"Zechs, as much as I want to discuss the mission right now, I think we all deserve a good rest." Violet spoke in behalf of the others. It was obvious to her that secrets were going to be unveiled this night.
"I see what you mean Violet. Very well, you're all excused. But I'll be seeing you tomorrow."
Violet nodded and led everyone out of the base. Once out, they went their separate ways. Duo and Jazmine went together, laughing when they left. Trowa had chosen to take Marie to her room since his room was just ahead of hers. Quatre offered Carina a walk to the delight of Carina. Brittany just grabbed Wufei's hand and dragged him away—with Wufei scowling.
"Um, Heero?"
"Hn."
"I'll show you something. Come."
Heero looked at Violet for a while and then slightly nodded, signaling her to go. Violet smiled and led Heero to the soccer field.
"Tonight, I remember, there are supposed to be shooting stars. We hardly ever get them on Earth—I'm sure you have seen a lot but never took the time to actually just relax and gaze at them, right?"
Violet sat down on the grass and waited. Heero stood his ground, but continued to look up. Violet was right; he never took the time to actually watch. Then it began. With a slow pace, shooting stars began appearing. Eventually, it showered like rain, bringing Violet to wonderland.
"Heero, make a wish." Violet said.
"What?"
"Make a wish. It'll come true." Violet closed her eyes and silently made a wish. Heero looked at her in pure amazement. This girl still believed in such myths? He quickly turned away when her hazel eyes opened. Violet stood up and smoothened her long skirt. She placed a hand on Heero's shoulder, causing him to turn to her.
"Heero, don't push your friends from you. They're here for you to lean on, so make yourself comfortable."
Heero just stared at her.
"And by the way, you have beautiful eyes. They're my favorite color."
Heero watched Violet's retreating figure. 'She likes Prussian Blue? But isn't that the eye color of the one that murdered her? You're too complicated Violet—too complicated. Yet… I don't understand why I'm so drawn to you.'
"What's wrong Jazmine?" Duo asked, placing a hand on her shoulder.
"Nothing. I just feel bad about bombing your room."
"It's okay. I understand. I would've done the same if I were in your position—unless I already fell in love with you."
"Really?" Duo smiled at her.
"Come on Duo, let's go to my room." "Yeah, I'm kind of sleepy already."
"Me too. It's been a pretty long day." Jazmine returned Duo's smile.
"You look so cute when you smile." Duo said. Jazmine started blushing.
"And even cuter when you blush." Jazmine entered her room and so did Duo.
"I'll just get the mattress and some pillows for you. Wait here."
Jazmine was about to walk to her closet when Duo pulled her hand and embraced her.
"D-Duo?" "You still don't get it do you Jazmine?" "W-What?" "I've fallen for you."
Jay-Ann and Duo blushed when he said those words.
"Duo… I don't know what to say…" "Tell me the truth. Should I forget my feelings for you because you don't like me or should I continue letting myself fall for you?"
"S-Second option. I like you too Duo."
She rested her head in the crook of Duo's neck and said, "But we better hold up first. For now, I'll be your girl." "You will?" "I will."
Duo let go of Jazmine and smiled at her. She smiled back and got to her closet.
"Quatre?"
"What is it Carina?"
"I'm really grateful that you saved Violet before Heero could kill her."
"Well, it wouldn't be right if Heero did kill her. I'd feel guilt over my shoulders all throughout my life."
"You like her don't you?" Quatre blushed slightly.
"No, I like another girl. It's her friend." "Who?" "I won't tell." "Please?" "No." "Please?" "No." "Even with sugar and cherry on top?" "Yes." "You're such a killjoy!"
Quatre and Carina burst into laughter. Quatre opened the door for Carina.
"Thanks for walking me to my room Quatre." "No big deal. My room's on the way, anyways."
Jennifer kissed Quatre on the cheek and started turning around when Quatre got hold of her wrist.
She faced him, saying, "Did I forget something?"
"Frankly, yes."
Quatre kissed Carina on the forehead. "Quatre, does this mean…"
Quatre began blushing ten shades of red.
"I like you too. It's time to say good night." Carina assured.
"Yeah. I'm sure though that I'll be sleeping pleasantly tonight."
"Me too." Quatre and Carina smiled. Carina closed the door, holding a hand to her chest.
"Quatre…" The young teenager was ready to faint because of what happened.
"Trowa?"
"Hm?"
"How come you never talk?"
"Are words really a need for you?" Marie nodded.
"For women, they say their feelings verbally so, I really am quite of a talker."
"Sorry, but I'm not."
"That's okay. It's also nice sometimes to be quiet."
"You're an extraordinary girl." Marie just smiled.
"I really appreciate you walking me to my room Trowa." Marie said, smiling at him.
"It's an act of courtesy. Besides, I don't want to spoil Quatre's chance." Trowa half-smiled.
"Quatre likes Carina?"
"Yeah." "How about you? Is there anyone you like?"
"Maybe." "And you call me extraordinary."
Marie opened her door and said, "Good night."
"Good night. Sweet dreams."
"Same to you. I wish to talk to you sometime else." Marie requested.
"I'll spare some time for you." Marie smiled and entered her room.
"Wufei?"
"What is it onna? Why did you drag me here? Please do be candid."
Brittany smiled and said, "I'm from L5, Dragon Clan."
"W-What? But how? I'm the only one left from the Dragon Clan onna!"
"It's hard to explain—I ran away. Familiar with the name Fei(1)?" Wufei's eyes widened.
"You're Meiran's sister… The one who ran away from the marriage and made Meiran take the responsibility."
Brittany hung her head—she was sorry for Meiran's death; for everything, damn it! She blamed herself for being such a stupid, insolent sister. You could just imagine her surprise when she felt Wufei's arms envelop her.
"W-Wufei?"
"Damn it you onna… I thought you looked familiar… I'm glad to finally have found you. I won't let you go, just like what I did to Meiran. Did you know how offended I was when Meiran took the marriage? Onna, you're… Listen carefully."
"Go ahead,"
"You're the one I like."
"Wufei… I'm sorry… And I want to tell you… I-I like you back."
A/N: Oh no! Wufei's OOC here! Sorry people, it was the only way I thought Wufei could er, open up! Sue me all you want, but I had no other idea how! So, the couples are clear now—except Heero and Violet. (sighs) Heero's really insensitive… Please review people! Don't sue me please! I beg you!
1-I just felt like it. Meiran had a sister named Fei, who was supposed to take the marriage but ran away… I don't want to offend the SallyxWufei and MeiranxWufei fans! I just had to… Peace!
Zechs: Again, this is not the real author's message, it is mine. She will be returning tomorrow. Today, she is in the hospital being treated because of some minor injuries. Please review.
