Reclaiming his Heart

Part 2

by Backlash

Quatre finished packing the rest of his things when Heero came in. "Are you ready?" asked Heero Quatre nodded as Trowa came in. "I'll put this in the car." Heero reluctantly left.

Quatre walked over to the window and looked out. Trowa stared in silence and said after a few seconds. "Please don't go."

"I need time away." Quatre answered softly.

"Why are you punishing me. You know how I get when I drink."

"Yes but I also know that you broke your promise."

"Quatre, I've been so lonely without you. I just needed some comfort and drinking provides that. If you hadn't been working none stop at a place you hate this wouldn't of happened."

"It's my fault. I realize that." admitted Quatre.

"No it not I didn't mean....."

"Goodbye Trowa. Maybe after some time I'll come back. I just need some time to contemplate."

Quatre walked over to the door but first gave Trowa a kiss on the cheek. Then he took his leave. Trowa touched his cheek wanting to feel Quatre's warm lips one last time. He watched out the window as Quatre headed for the car as Heero finished loading it. He looked up at the window one last time and saw Trowa.

Then he drove off with Heero. A single tear fell down Trowa's cheek . "I will never love anyone again." then he left to see his sister. The last person left who gave a damn about him. Maybe with her he could find some peace.

A few months later................

Quatre traveled everywhere with Heero. They supported eachother and Heero would go on and on about Wufei. Quatre knew why but Heero didn't seem to get it.

"When are you going to tell him Heero?"

"Tell who what?"

"Wufei that you love him."

"You no something Quatre. Being with you these last few months had softened me. You have learned to read me like a book haven't you?"

"You know he loves you too."

"How do you know?" asked Heero.

"Because I told him." said a voice they turned to see Wufei in the doorway.

***************************

Quatre went for a walk to give them some time together. He had this burning pain in his heart for quite some time now. Some one he cared for was very sad and in a great deal of pain. He just couldn't place it though.

He had tried to call Trowa just two days after he left. Trowa had left Quatre missed him so much and felt that he shouldn't have left the way he did. He didn't just leave because he was hurt though. He didn't think Heero should be alone not at that time.

He just wanted his Trowa back. It felt it was his fault after all that stupid business took some much of his time away from Trowa. He had never said it had hurt him so much. If he had known he would have left the company a lot sooner. Nothing was more important to him then Trowa nothing. He wished he could go back and do things differently but he can't.

When he left he left his heart. Trowa gave him love and understanding and now he felt as though he messed everything up by running away. Quatre continued to stare at the sky which seemed pointless. He pulled out a photo he carried of him and Trowa together. "Where are you Trowa?"

"You might not want to know. After what I tell you." said Wufei as he came up behind him holding Heero's hand.

"What do you mean?"

"He isn't the same. He was starting to get better until Catherine died in a car crash. Now he just sits in a rented cabin and drinks all the time. He won't talk to anyone he's like a zombie. If anyone can get through to him it's you."

Quatre didn't need any convincing. Trowa needed him and that's all he needed to know. Quatre packed him stuff and got on a plane at know time at all. Next stop Trowa. He just hoped he wasn't to late.
