Loneliness For Christmas
Heero's Part
By: Maria
Heero stood outside Relena's estate gates, watching for signs of problems. He did this about twice a month, when he'd be passing by. He wouldn't do this everyday for the rest of his life. But since Christmas was nearly there he decided he'd stay in town until Christmas was over and he felt it was safe to say there wasn't going to be a war this Christmas.
Heero leaned against a tree as he gave the building one last glance and proceeded to go back to town and sleep.
"this appears to be my first Christmas not being a Gundam Pilot or a machine...my first real free Christmas...alone."
'What are you saying! You have no feelings! Even now, it makes no difference if you're a Gundam Pilot or not. Feelings and friends just interfere with the task at hand! Feelings equal weakness and defeat.' Heero had to nod in agreement with his thoughts. 'Now focus on getting to your room for rest. Can't make an error.'
One last thought escaped Heero's mind and mouth before he pushed everything away. "Duo"
Heero took a warm shower once he arrived at the hotel room. He stepped out of the bathroom, sweat pants, no shirt, and two towels. One towel resting on his shoulders and the other was being used to dry his hair. His room was warm, besides that if it was cold he'd have blocked it out, so he sat down on his bed and threw the towels aside. Heero laid back and stared up at the ceiling.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
'What would Duo say about you laying around?' a little voice purred into his ear.
He tried to push the voice away but he knew what Duo would say.
"Heero! You're not sitting at your laptop! Is something wrong!?"
"Duo...Omae o kurso."
"Nope, everything must be fine. Well then why don't we go outside and enjoy life a bit? Whatdaya say?"
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
'He'd say something like that with a big grin on his face...hmmm...I hope Duo's enjoying Christmas." Heero rolled over on to his side and drifted off to sleep.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
"Heero! Heero! Heero, where are you?" Heero opened his eyes and saw Duo running around frantically looking for something.
"Duo..." he whispered.
"Heero! It's Christmas, I don't want to be alone! Why won't you let me find you, Heero..." Duo fell to his knees crying.
Heero felt a terrible ache in his heart and made his way to Duo. Duo suddenly stood up and looked right at him.
"I don't want to be alone, Heero. I don't want to be alone." Duo raised a gun to his head. Before Heero could do or say anything Duo pulled the trigger, his body falling to the ground and blood covering the ground around his form.
"Duoooooo!!" Heero yelled.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Heero sat up breathless, sweaty and shaky. 'What happened. Where's Duo!' Heero looked around confused. 'It was just a dream. Duo didn't kill himself because of me, I let my mind wonder to the other pilots and therefore it created a nightmare in my head.'
Heero got up and decided it was best to just forget about it and forget about the others. After dressing and eating something small, Heero walked back to Relena's estate. Along the way a pink limousine passed by him, it stopped on backed up a bit. Pagan got out of the vehicle and walked towards Heero, who was coming up towards the car.
"Heero Yuy! Miss Relena has been looking for you everywhere! Please Heero get in the car and I'll escort you to her." Heero looked at Pagan with his icy glare.
"I have nothing to do with Relena. I won't go see her."
Heero continued walking towards the estate leaving Pagan standing there. Pagan, finally getting his wits together got into the car and made his way to the estate. He went inside to find Relena. Relena had just gotten off the phone when Pagan walked in her office.
"Miss Relena?"
"Yes, Pagan what is it?"
"Heero Yuy is just outside this estate. He wouldn't come in and I thought you may like to know he's there."
"Thank you Pagan. I think I'll go out there and talk to him." Relena puts on a heavy jacket and scarf and goes outside to talk to Heero.
Heero stood amongst the trees watching the mansion, when he noticed Relena walking towards him. 'Hmmm...I should leave.'
"Heero, I'm so glad to see you." Relena smiled. "I've been trying to get a hold of you. I have some important news for you."
Heero gave her his normal glare.
"Well, Heero I was planning this wonderful Christmas Reunion of sorts. I have this..."Heero interrupted.
"I don't plan on going."
"No. I wasn't going to make you. I just wanted you to have this invitation. I do think you should go. It'll make you happier. I've invited the other ex-Gundam pilots." Relena walked back to the estate.
'The truth of the matter is if Relena's having this reunion thing...I have to go. It's my duty to make sure no war breaks out and Relena isn't captured again this year.' Heero thought as he stared blankly at the invitation.
