Party Time!

Chapter 5

After escaping the base, the gundam pilots and Releena went back to the house. Everyone was glad to see Releena. Until, that is, they saw all her bright red blood everywhere. "Oh Releena!" Catherine exclaimed. Heero quickly tore his shirt and wrapped Releena's open wounds. He then took Releena into the guestroom, leaving the others to think about what was going on.

"Heero?" Releena said. "Lay down on your stomach." He ordered. Releena obliged. "Now take off your shirt." Heero said without emotion in his voice. "What!" Releena shrieked. "I need to clean the whip wounds on your back with antiseptic." He explained. "Please trust me Releena." He said with sincerity. "Turn around." She ordered. Heero turned his back. "Okay, I'm ready." She said with nervousness in her voice. Being careful not to upset her, he quickly got behind her. He wet the towel he was holding with water and antiseptic and began to clean her wounds.

"Heero." Releena said after a moment of silence. "What?" "Why are you doing all this for me?" She asked recalling him coming to save her, dancing with her, and now this. He sighed. Might as well tell her now, Heero. He thought silently. "Because, Releena," He hesitated. "I think I'm falling in love with you."

"I think I'm falling in love with you." Releena was in shock. Did I hear that right? Releena kept asking herself. "Releena." Heero said. "I'm sorry, I shouldn't have told you like that." "Turn around Heero." He did so. Releena quickly put her shirt back on. She then went over to Heero. Once in front of him she could see his head hung low. "I love you too, Heero." She said, her voice at a whisper. He snapped his head up when he heard this. Releena could see tears in his eyes. She couldn't believe it. The perfect soldier was gone, she was looking at Heero, the real Heero, the boy she had fallen in love with when he came to earth as a part of operation meteor. "Do you mean it?" He asked with hesitation.

"I mean it with all my heart." She replied. Releena tilted his chin up so he was looking her directly in the eyes. "I love you Heero, don't forget that." She then decided to surprise him and gave him a long kiss. When they parted Releena said, "It's time to talk to the others." Heero nodded, and they both headed for the door.

"How long are they going to be in there?!" Duo ranted for the tenth time. "Be patient, they're probably talking about what happened at the base." Hilde said. "Yeah right." He retorted. Just then they heard the click of the guest room door. All of they're jaws dropped when they saw not only Releena, but also Heero smiling! "What happened in there?" Duo asked. "Nothing, Heero helped me clean some of my wounds." Releena replied in a mischievous voice. "Oh, and we're In love with each other, too." Heero continued in a casual voice. "WHAT?" everyone shrieked. "We've got to talk about the underground base now." Releena said in a hating voice. Uh oh they all thought.
