Meeting His Destiny
Chapter 11
"Boo!" Corinne exclaimed jumping out from behind Duo.
"AHHHHH!" was his screaming reply. The man flew out of his chair in the living room and onto the floor. "What the-Corinne?" Trowa who had been upstairs before was watching the odd scene and smiled ever so slightly.
"Did I scare ya?" Corinne laughed with a beaming smile. Duo shook his head, laughing at his own foolishness and stood up. The histerical girl before him merely smiled and gave him a sly look. The braided man flashed an evil expression of his own and began to approach the laughing woman with a grin. Corinne took notice and got a bit jumpy. "Duo…are you okay-hey! Ahh!" she screamed as Duo grabbed hold of her and tickled her. "Duo, hehe! Stop it!"
"Say you're sorry!" Duo teased.
"Okay, okay." The man set her down and patiently awaited her apology. "I'm not sorry," she replied to his surprise with another smile. Duo shook his head and grabbed hold of her waist.
"Me neither," he said and kissed her.
"You people are sick," Trowa said with a sarcastic grin.
"Oh what do you know?" Duo teased. Trowa shrugged and departed from the living room.
"I'm sorry we just dropped in like this, Duo. We just couldn't wait to see you guys any longer," Corinne said after all was quiet.
"That's all right. Wait a minute, we?" Corinne nodded at his question.
"Yes, we. My sister, cousin, and I all decided to pay the three of you a visit. By now, Aya has met with Quatre and Sapphera should be dropping by Trowa momentarily." The two were quiet after this, just gazing into each other's eyes with wide smiles. The world faded away, just melted into eternity. It was quaint and peaceful. Duo and Corinne stood in one another's arms just together. Wufei was thankfully off somewhere so he could not interrupt this moment of pleasant eternity. It was just special, and the two stood, hanging by a moment.
*~*~*
Trowa made his way down a dimly lit corridor somewhere in the far depths of the house. Even without a clue where he was, or where he was going, there was something comforting about it all. Maybe the fact he lived there and sooner or later someone would find him if he happened to get lost. But alas, he was Trowa, so there was no need to worry. And with that thought, the European man continued his walk down the halls of endless space. Within five minutes, Trowa came to a door atone of a hall and slowly turned the knob. It seemed like it had never been opened, for the door creaked a bit. As the door pushed back, it revealed a large fire lit room, which seemed to be a secret library. And there he saw standing Sapphera, holding a book and smiling at him. "Sa-Sapphera…what are you, what are you doing here?"
"Trowa, did you think that only one of us girls would come to pay our man a visit? I could never do such a thing," she said with a cute voice. Trowa smiled and approached her slowly. "We missed you all so much, that we had to see you. Aya is off somewhere with Quatre and I heard that Corinne found Duo. Quite the pairs huh?"
"I'll say. They're all crazy," Trowa replied sitting down in a chair beside her. The woman's midnight hair draped nearly down to floor even sitting in the chair and her eyes glittered in the firelight. "I'm glad you came." Sapphera nodded. "Why though?"
"What do you mean why? I really like you, why would I just walk away from you so easily?"
"I don't know, I'm just not to used to this," Trowa continued.
"Used to what?"
"Feeling so, complete." Trowa suddenly stood upand took Sapphera's hand and pulled her up so she stood a mere inch from him. A look of confusion and surprise took over her beautiful features. Slowly, the space between their lips lessened and soon the two were locked in a deep kiss. It lasted for a bit and soon they pulled away from lack of air.
"I've only known you not even a week. Does this seem too fast to you?"
"I don't know. And I really don't care anymore. The only thing I do care about is being here with you."
*~*~*
Heero tossed and turned in his sleep, something was wrong, something was different. His dreams were empty, dim without the pure and loving light that Destiny shed upon his heart. Nothing. Heero longed so much to see her…ask for an explanation of why the Star'sEye had come real. But if she didn't appear, if he did not dream…he would never see her again. That was something Heero Yuy could not bear. But yet in time, it was early. The clock had only struck 10 when the man sat up in a cold sweat from his dreamless sleep. "Why am I so afraid?" he asked himself out loud. The fire in his bedroom fireplace roared and cast a ruby shadow over everything in the room. Meanwhile, a cool breeze drafted in through the window doors.
//Because you're afraid that you'll never see her again,// a voice in the back of his mind teased.
"Shut up will you?"
//Why? Everything you've denied, ya know the truth Heero. Stop lying to yourself like it will make things better!//
"Wait a minute, did I ask for your opinion?" Heero shouted at himself. "If I never see her again…what will I do?"
//Maybe you'll lose yourself again, and that's what you want isn't it? You want the comfort of the darkness, the familiarity back. She's the best thing that's ever happened to you and your mind would give it all up in a second if you could. Just to have that familiar darkness and empty feeling. But you love her, and your heart keeps telling you that. Do what the woman says and follow your heart for once you insane Baka!//
"I'm trying!"
//Well now that might be a bit of a problem won't it?//
"One dream, just one dream I haven't seen her. It isn't even late, I'm sure I'll see her later," Heero exclaimed trying to reassure himself.
//You're so transparent. And every time you saw Quatre, Trowa, or even Duo with one of those girls, you got seriously jealous. All because you wanted her to be real, even when you denied it.//
"Shut up! I'll kill you!"
"You'll kill who Heero?" a voice inquired from the door.
"Duo…" Heero whispered in shock.
"Heero who are you talking to?"
"No one! And what in God's name are you doing in my room?!"
"The guys wanted me to send up some mail. Yeah, don't tell me I know it's an odd hour but we got some really late today. Didn't mean to bug you o cold master of the dark."
"I heard you, with Corinne. I saw Quatre and Aya, even heard Trowa and Sapphera laughing outside. I hate this."
"I don't-
"I envy you."
"What about Relena?" Duo inquired with a sly grin. Heero shot him a death glare. "Whoa, I'm joking. But, you envy…me?!"
"It's the truth. It's about those dreams…"
"Why don't you tell me what is really going on here?"
"I don't even know. But that whole thing with the crystal and everything else, Duo I don't know! I wish so much…I wish she were real."
"I really don't know what to say Heero. You're my best friend but even you should know that its just a dream."
"No! It's more!" Heero cried out, and jumped off the bed. "How can it be just a dream? I know there is something to this and until I find out, I have to keep dreaming. That is where the answers lie. In my dreams."
"Heero I-
"Duo. Please. Don't tell the others until I figure things out."
"I have a few questions-
"Duo." The braided one nodded at his friends begged request.
"Now leave me alone baka," Heero replied with a slight smile. Duo did a little bow and left the room, also leaving the few items of mail on Heero's desk by the door.
