Ah...ch.4, please enjoy! And it's short, I'm sorry!
***********************************************************************
Days past, life went on, Lita slowy recovered.
During this time Rini learned you should stay away from Heero, it was really easy to
make Wufei mad, Quatre and Duo were soar losers, and Trowa was just like Darien. Relena was
still Relena, sweet as ever, and her butler, Paegan, was really nice!
Lita had begun to walk, with the aid of crutches, but she could move none the less. She
seemed sad, not at all like the Lita she remebered. The one that was happy, and fun, and boy
crazy. Now Lita was.....well she was sad. Rini could see right through the mask that she wore.
The one that said everything was going to be okay, and how happy she was to still be alive. Rini
thought back to a night, right after Lita had woken up. Standing on the Balcony of one of the
Recreation rooms in the large mansion, talking to Heero. Holding, and stroking her watch the
whole time. Her only link to her past, and the scouts, not including Rini. She watched, and
listened to the two of them exchange words. A sad conversation if you could call it that, about
her failed mission. That was the only word that could trigger any kind of reaction form Heero.
Tears sprung from her eyes, like blood from a newly ripped wound. He didn't seem to care. So
then why did he listen? Rini watched as Lita through the green watch with all her might, and
crumpled down in pain as the force took its toll on her weak body. Still he did nothing just
stood, watching out of the corner of his eye, as she mumbled saddened words of,"Never again,"
and "no more." How could he be so cold? But time went on as always, nothing could stop it now,
and as it did Rini noticed a special fondness Lita seemed to have for Trowa. She got along with
all of them, but she liked to be with Trowa the most. She had hated him at first, just like the
rest of the pilots. After all, they had destroyed their home. Something was there though. Rini
could see it in Lita's eyes when she looked at him, something seemed to click.
Relena and Lita would talk hours on end, Quatre, Rini, Duo, and Lita would play cards,
she would bicker with Wufei, ang glare at Heero, but in all of that Lita would seem content to
just sit and watch Trowa. Neither would say a word. They would just sit. He never seemed to
notice her. What was it between the two? Was it anything? Maybe she was just imagining it.
Maybe there was nothing, but maybe...just maybe there was.
***********************************************************************
Rini and Lita walked through the halls, attempting to get their bearings of the place
that they now lived, due to Relena's insistence that they stay. Once again Rini and Lita found
themselves lost in the halls of the great mansion, and once again Rini enlisted Trowa for help.
He seemed to know his way around aswell as Relena, and he always seemed to be there when they
needed help. And when they found their way finally, there would always be Duo, shooting glares
at Trowa, making Lita blush, and causing Rini to roll her eyes. She new Duo liked her, so why
didn't either of them saying anything. Rini knew Lita liked the attention, but there jut wasn't
that thing. That special something in her eyes, like there was when she looked at Trowa.
Every now and then one of the boys would go on a mission. And Lita, Relena, and Rini
would pray everytime that they would come home safely, and they always did, and life always went
on.
For weeks it was like this. The constant coming, and going, and worrying. Was it always
to be like this? The weeks slowly evolved to months. Duo began to realize that he and Lita
could only be friends, he saw it when she looked at Trowa, even though they hardly ever spoke to
each other. And with the months, brought banquents, and parties, like the ones in the fairy
tales that Lita always talked about going to someday, but never did. Relena would always ask
both Lita and Rini to come. Rini would attend, be bored out of her mind, and still go again,
she loved wearing the flowing gown, that was why she always went, but Lita,...Lita would stay at
the mansion, even when the boys would go to the great celebrations. And that's the way things
were. A constant cycle. An ever rotating wheel. That is until Relena's birthday came around.
That's when it happened....the begining of the end.
