Angst?
"And this time I'm not leaving"
'The words I had wanted to hear the most, from
his lips, had come.
I had imagined many times this moment, me
hugging him, crying, finally gathering the courage to place my lips on his, but
never what happened.
It was never meant to go so ..... wrong ....
I must have worried him to death, just
collapsing like that.
I guess I did get my wish though.
Sitting by that fountain, I wished to die.
I wanted nothing more in the whole world, at
that very moment, than to simply die.
But he protected me, like he promised too,
then said those words to me.
Oh why couldn't I find the strength to reply?'
~~~~~~~~~~~
"Heero!! Heero, man, what on Earth
happened?!?"
Heero's head jerked slightly at the mention of
his name, but never rose, his eyes seemingly glued to the tiled floor.
"Heero, man, answer me! All we've heard is
that Oujo-san collapsed! What happened?!"
The braided pilot of Deathscythe Hell was here.
Any person with working ears could tell, as well as anyone who he had bowled
over, while heading towards his friend.
'He's the reason she's in here...'
That voice was back, that nagging little voice in
the back of Heero's mind, which so often spoke up where emotions were concerned,
especially with Relena.
Suddenly Duo found himself looking down the
barrel of Heero's gun, a surprisingly familiar sight for him.
"Heero... man, I just asked how Oujo-san
is... what can I possibly have done this time?!"
Duo's voice was slightly different to his usual
joking, free, cheerful speech.
Each word seemed painful, harsh, deadly serious.
"I know I was the one who sent her over the
edge. Believe me, if I could change it, I would. But it's happened, Heero, you
have to realize it."
"She never said anything back."
"What?!" Duo's voice was laced with
sadness, and reverberated with the shock at what Heero had said.
"I told her I would never leave her, then
she fell."
Duo ventured to look up then, almost knowing and
dreading the sea of emotions Heero's prussian eyes would be.
"She just collapsed in my arms. Her body
just fell. Why her? Why me?! Just after I had realized I loved her, Why?"
Heero's normally monotone voice shook with
emotion, the very emotion that was tearing him up inside at that moment.
"Duo, what if she doesn't make it?"
"She will, man. She'd fight anything just to
be with you."
A sad smile glittered on Duo's face, holding so
much hope, and a small, hopeful smile lingered momentarily on Heero's face, his
oh so cold eyes burning with unsaid love. Love for the peaceful girl lying in
the next room over, recovering from the flu.
