Screaming With the Sound Off
Part 5
"Heero Yuy and I are not to be wed. The fact is, my friends, is that I do not love him,"the words floated from my mouth. I wasn't even certain I was actually saying them. My entire body was shaking as I tried to stare evenly into the camera. My brother was screaming on the other side of the door. Soon he'd realize where the keys were and search my room. I had to make the most of my time. "The person.. no.. the womyn I had planned on marrying was Dorothy Catalonia. But my brother denied me my right of marriage. My right to love." I sighed, fiddling around with the switches.
A short clip of Dorothy took over my image. I wanted everyone to see who my heart belonged to. She was smiling, speaking to someone but it was mute. That's when I realized it. All this time, Dorothy and I had been screaming. Screaming for someone to understand. Screaming for someone to just let us go. But we had been.. screaming with the sound off. And no one could hear. Just like those actors on the television who screamed and screamed but got no where. I was ready to stop my silent screams. Wincing, I stopped the clip to return to my speech.
"Milliardo told me you all would despise me if you knew who I loved. He said it would shatter our peace. But I didn't.. no.. I did. I did believe him but I have seen the lies he has spoken. I know he was speaking falsely."
Milliardo heard his name and his pounding grew louder. It made me remember the time Dorothy had locked me in a room. To think love could blossom from our old relationship. A mournful chuckle escaped my lips.
"I know you. You are my friends. Each and every one of you and I know.. I know you would have understood. But it's too late now. There is a lesson that must be learned here. If I must be the one to teach it, I'll make sure you all get A plusses."
I smiled. The pounding had stopped. There was only a few seconds left for me to teach. Heero's gun was slowly raised as I cocked off the safety. I knew what I was going to do was immature. I knew it might actually shatter all peace and send this world teetering off course. But there was no way I was going to stop. They had to understand..
"Love is infinite. Love knows nothing but love. Never hate a person for their love. And.. my friends.. I, Relena Peacecraft, love you all." My lips drifted into a soft smile. I placed the barrel of the gun to my temple. As Milliardo opened the door, his face red, I pulled the trigger.
You are my sunshine...
My only sunshine...
You make me happy...
When skies are gray...
So please don't take my sunshine...
A..w..a..y.
Mizu-chan!'s Notes: Uh, sorry it didn't end happily? I wrote this in like ten minutes so I might be editing it later on. Anyone think I should do an epilogue from Dorothy's point of view or are ya getting sick of this? Well, thanks a bunch for reading all of this! You rule!
