Chapter 2: Glimpses
"MOM! WHERE'S MY BACKPACK!"
"It should be right where you left it."
"I don't remember that far back! C'mon I'm late as it is!"
"It's on the stairs, Nevada."
A bouncy 13 year old turned and headed towards the cherry wood staircase, rolling deep Prussian blue eyes and mumbling words noncoherent.
Hilde, no longer the reckless 20 year old woman she once was, came around the corner wearing a loose floral t-shirt and a piar of jean shorts. Handing her daughter a donut and giving her a kiss she sent her off out the door.
"Remember, No late assignments, No kissing boys, and definently no running off after school! Your dad should be home by 2 so he'll be home!" She warned.
"Yeah yeah.." Nevada Maxwell flung her french braided hair around, chomping on a piece of gum as she walked off towards the towering school in the distance.
Hilde leaned against the doorframe. She had raised Nevada from a newborn, orphaned infant. She couldn't forget, after 13 years, that the girl wasn't hers. The beautiful baby who called her mom affectionately would never be hers.
"Heero Yuy..After all these years how could you do it?" She whispered looking up into the already clouding sky.
Sweat beaded off his forehead as Duo Maxwell set the large piece of scrap metal on the back of the trailer. Taking off his glove he wiped his plastered bangs from his brow.
"So, how's the wife and kid?" Duo turned leaning against his sledgehammer. Jake, one of the new hired people, stood behind him holding his punch card. Duo had found another friend in the practically bald 40 year old man.
"Doing just fine from what I know. Hey, I can't thank you enough Jake." Duo met Jake's hand in a handshake as the two men switched jobs.
He stumbled, trying to keep his balance on the large garbage heap. Duo could just make out his Chevy Silverado, shining beautiful black in the artificial sun. He took out the keys from his pocket and headed home.
Nevada shifted uncomfortable as the teacher's eyes rested on her. Math was hardly her best subject and in the particular problem they were talking about on the board she was lost from the beginning of the hour.
"Ms. Max-"
*RRIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIINNNNNGGGGG*
'Saved by the bell' Nevada thought picking her things up and running off out of the room.
"Hey Nev." She turned to stare into the face of Kyle Oxsferd, the most popular and definently the hottest guy in school. Kyle shifted beside her.
"Hi Kyle." Nevada managed to squeak out smiling brightly.
"I'm going over the park tonight. Wanna come?" Nevada pulled a stray hair behind her ear, blushing furiously.
"S-sure. When?"
"After school." Nevada's mind alerted her with a red light but her pride overtook her logical thinking at the moment.
"Yeah." She said looking around at some of the dirty looks she was getting from her friends.
"Cool. Meet you by your locker." With that, the glorious Kyle Oxsferd turned on his heel to go over by his towering basketball playing friend.
"Gurrrrll..You got it goin on. But maybe you should realize you have two seconds to get to class." Nevada snapped out of her phase she was in when Lynn poked her with the comment.
"Oh crap!" Nevada turned literally flying to her locker when the harsh ring of the 8th hour bell sounded in the halls.
Duo threw the car keys on the table walking towards the note lying on the table.
Duo,
Nevada should be coming home right after school today. I told her you'd be home but if she's not here by 4:00 try calling Lynn's. See ya tonight.
Luv,
Hilde
Duo smiled. His eyes turned towards the pictures on the wall. Nevada's baby pictures hung around the one big family portrait they had gotten just a month ago. His smile faded as he saw his litt'e girl's features. Heero was ultimately living within her.
What if Heero came back, wanting Nevada back. Hilde's heart would break. Though Nevada wasn't theirs, they didn't die giving birth to her, she was a part of them.
"Heero..Please be dead.." Duo silently prayed.
Two figures walked on the sidewalk leading to the city park, smiling and giggling.
"So what did you think about the whole lab chemistry set blowing up?" Kyle asked. Nevada giggled lightly.
"I've seen bigger but it was pretty funny when Ms. O' Larry's chest started on fire." They both enjoyed a good laugh.
Kyle turned and sat down on a park bench. Nevada didn't even notice they had gone in a secluded part of the park. SHe looked around , not really noticing they were alone.
"So..I'll be straight with you Nev. I think your really pretty. I mean, yeah sure, There were other girls but your special."
*THUMP THUMP*
Nevada's heart almost froze in it's rhythmic tune.
"Kyle...I..I-I don't know what to say!" Nevada blushed, inwardly hoping that the meeting would come to an end soon so she could go home and call her friends. Home! Nevada shot straight up grabbing her backpack.
"WHere are you going?" He said standing with her.
"I forgot! I really have to go home. I'm gonna be in so much trouble!" Kyle grabbed her wrist before she could take a step.
"Kyle! Let..NNG! Go!" Nevada's mind went blind with panic when she realize the towering boy could easily overpower her. Fear-stricken she started pulling and kicking, screaming anything to get away from Kyle who was pulling her ever closer until she could feel his breath upon her face. Kyle smashed his lips onto hers making her open her eyes. She struggled more finally slapping him with her free hand.
"Stop it!" Nevada shouted when he grabbed her other hand.
The next thing she knew she was laying on the cement seeing stars. A slight scuffling noise was heard and then Kyle's hand swooping up his backpack next to hers and running.
"Are you alright?" The tone was cold and emotionless. Nevada opened her eyes painfully.
"I'm fine." She said allowing the stranger to her feet. He looked around his mid 30's and had the msot beautiful eyes she had ever seen.
"Thank you for helping me. My name's Nevada Maxwell. What's your-" Nevada turned to pick up her backpack and when she turned the chocalate haired stranger was gone. Something in her mind clicked and a familiar feeling washed over her. Did she know the man?
His eyes held a stunning similarity to hers.
Footsteps.
Clear as day and night.
Soft, pattering, footsteps.
He made his way around the park stopping occasionally to harness the whole meaning of it. The girl he had saved was a Maxwell...Nevada..Was it...his daughter? The man shot up now knowing where he had to go.
