Heero opened open eye and looked around. He saw Relena's head
tilted to the side as his head laid in her lap. He slowly opened his other
eye and watched her chest rise and fall. "Heero, we need to start practising
for the gig tomorrow." Duo said walking into the room. "Jesus! What happened-"
when Duo looked at Heero he was glaring at him while pointing to Relena.
Duo nodded and shut up. "Right, just come to the garage." Duo said and
left.
Heero slowly moved but as much as he wish he didn't Relena woke up. "Mmmm." she said before stifling a yawn and stretching her arms. She then opened her eyes and saw Heero's face infront of hers. If it were any other person Relena would have screamed, but it wasn't any other person. It was Heero. Her Heero and his eyes held hers in a trance. She remembered the first time this happened. It was when Heero was moving in with Duo, Trowa, Wufie and Quatre.
-Flash Back- (A/N: Here ya go)
Heero took some boxes and began to talk into the 2 story house. He had lived with Relena for 5 months and finally he had a place to stay. When he heard his friends where getting a place together and that they needed one more person he volunteered and since he had a job to help pay the rent it made it even better. When they got the house ever one called there room. It had 4 bed rooms down stairs and one up stairs. Heero claimed the one up stairs and they all agreed knowing Heero always needed his privacy. It had a Living room, A dinning room and a nice kitchen. A huge garage and a basement, the bottom part of the house had 3 bathrooms and the upper stairs had one.
As Heero headed up stairs with the boxes he opened the door to see Relena sitting infront of the Window looking at the view of the house tops and the sun set. Relena looked at him and smiled while walking over to him to help with the boxes. Heero went back down to get more boxes while Relena began to take things out of them. She put all the cloths in the huge dresser and all the dress pants, dress shirts and coats in the closet.
Heero walked up to the room and Relena looked at him and smiled. Heero nodded, once the room was set up they left to the basement to take care of the band instruments. "Hey Heero!" Duo yelled. Heero turned to Duo. "I found this black spiral on Quatre's Turn Tables. It says : 'Thoughts from the Unwanted.' I was thinking ya know, for our band name should be 'The Unwanted.' What ya think?" Duo said smiling. Heero took the spiral and pointed to the name at the bottom that said 'Heero Yuy.' and nodded his head in agreement. "WOW! Those are the songs! Hey we have been practising that song you call 'Falling Away From Me.' I want to hear it. Come on.. PLEASE!!!" Duo begged. Relena laughed watching Duo beg. "Fine. Just stop begging." Heero said giving in.
"HEY QUATRE, WU-MAN, TROWA! We are gonna play so come down to the basement." Duo screamed. Relena just smiled at Heero. "So I get to hear you sing. According to Duo it's great. You never sing around me, I feel unloved." she said smiling. "Heh, well. It's just, I, uh. I had to take singing lessons to make it sound better. Yeah..that's it." Heero said now feeling like a total idiot. He could never lie to Relena with a straight face. Personally he thought his singing sucked, but everyone els disagreed. 'Well lets see what Relena thinks.' he thought while walking over to the mic.
As Wufie came down last "Do not call me Wu-man." Wufie said glaring at Duo. "Hey, just get ready, we are gonna play 'Falling Away From Me' because I think It's time we heard the lyrics." he said looking at Heero smiling brightly. Heero shrugged his shoulders as everyone got set up.
Heero walked over to the Mic as Relena sat down. "So what is this about?" Relena said looking at Heero. "You'll figure it out." he said while testing the mic. The music began and Heero began soon to follow.
Heero: Hey, I'm feeling tired
My time, is gone today
You flew with suicide
Sometimes, that's ok
Hear what others say
Heero & Duo: I'm here, standing hollow
Heero: Falling away from me
Falling away from me
Relena listened to Heero sing and tried to understand him. It seemed he was talking about suicide, but something wasn't quite the same line with it.
Heero: Day, is here fading
That's when, I would say
I flew with suicide
Sometimes kill the pain
I can always say
Heero & Duo: 'It's gonna be better tomorrow'
Heero: Falling away from me
Falling away from me
Then it hit her 'It's gonna be better tomorrow' was what Heero said when Relena found his bruises he hid. She looked up at him with her eyes showing that she understands. His eyes locked with hers and he sang with his whole soul and heart in it.
Heero & Duo: Beating me down
Beating me, beating me
Down, down
Into the ground
Screaming so sad
Beating me, beating me
Down, down
Into the ground
Heero watched her as she understood, it was about his father, and how he felt with the abuse.
(Duo: falling away from me)
Heero: It's spinning round and round
(Duo: falling away from me)
Heero: It's lost and can't be found
(Duo: falling away from me)
Heero: It's spinning round and round
(Duo: falling away from me)
Heero: Slow it down
Heero & Duo: Beating me down
Beating me, beating me
Down, down
Into the ground
Screaming so sad
Beating me, beating me
Down, down
Into the ground
Heero: Pressing me, they won't go away
So I pray, go away
Heero & Duo: Its falling away from me
Heero: FUCK!
Relena was startled by Heero's out burst in the song, but then again heero had to show his hurt somehow, right?
Heero & Duo: Beating me down
Beating me, beating me
Down, down
Into the ground
Screaming so sad
Beating me, beating me
Down, down
Into the ground
Heero looked down at the ground and rubbed his noise out of a nervous
habit. He looked up and saw Relena's eyes looking at his with great understanding.
"Well, you have a date." Heero said looking around. Relena nodded and left.
Sure she loved him, hell she loved him so much it hurt sometimes, but she
just can't wait forever for him, so she began to date.
-End Flash Back-
Heero looked at the clock to see it saying 1:20. "OH CRAP!" He yelled leaping up. "We are gonna be late for OUR graduation!" he said begins to walk outa the room with Relena close behind him. "We don't have much time, it only takes 10 minutes to get to the school, then we have to get in our robes and be seated. Come on lets get the rest and lets go!" Relena said while grabbed Heero's hand and dragging him down to the cars. "IN THE CARS!" Heero screamed and everyone looked at their watches and ran frantically to the cars.
-High School-
A women came up to Relena and smiled at her. "Valedictorian, come with me." she said and Relena followed her while waving bye to the rest. Heero watched her leave with a smile on his face.
"Bet you are proud of her, eh?" Duo said lightly elbowing Heero in the side. Heero's smile disappeared and turned into a glare at Duo. "What?!" he said and they walked off to change.
-Auditorium-
Millardo sat in one of the many seat in the huge auditorium. "Were are they?" Millardo said looking to his fiancée, Noin. "Here they come to be seated." she said pointing to the large line coming out from the doors.
Dorothy was the first person they new that came out. She was then seated followed behind a long line then Wufie Chang. Later on to be followed by Relena. Once everyone was seated the Principal went on about something that passed deft ears even Relena's.
"Now for our speech for Valedictorian." the man said. "Relena Dorlian." he finished and she walked up to the microphone as the cheers were louder than she imagined. She could point out her friends because they where jumping up and down screaming her name. Heero stood in her back waving his hand slowly with a small smile playing on his lips. Relena smiled and said "Thank you." soon they became quiet and Relena began.
"Most Valedictorians either read a book, a poem or a passage out of the bible. I am here to do non of those. I am here to tell you something I have realized with the help of my friends and my peers." she cleared her throat and began her speech. "Life is a road, you are not sure where it takes you. You just continue to walk down the road to see what happens. All the sharp turns, curves, traffic, wrecks are the problems that accrue in life. If you are strong enough, if you have people there for you to lean on when in need you can over come these problems and rise above and continue to walk down your road. Each road that intersects with yours is someone who has forever left an imprint upon you life that will never leave. Though some of us struggle to move on with those people that have left our life's leaving the imprint, we still remember what we learned from each person. We take a piece from each person we encounter, until we know why we are here and I know when your road ends I will be there with you just has each and everyone have you have been there through my journey of my road. I still haven't figured out when my road shall end nor where it will take me now, but I know on my way along my road of life I will not regret the past, I will not regret my accidents or the traffic I shall run into or have ran into. I will only learn from them. Though, when you reach the end of the road look back on your life and see everything you have over come. Life wont seem as long as it did when you where little but it sure will be rewarding when you see what you have accomplished you will be proud of yourself and those around you. Never doubt yourself, never believe you can end your road with your own hands. Your road doesn't end until you are truly ready for it to end. I thank each of you for sharing this year with me. Good luck to all and stay safe." she finished wiping away a few tears. As she began to walk of the stage she heard all the cheers, screams and hollers out because of her speech she sat down and smiled.
-9:39 outside of the high school after the graduation.-
Relena leaned against the bleacher and sighed. "Can't believe this is it." she said looking at all her friends. Duo, Hilde, Trowa, Catherine, Quatre, Dorothy, Wufie, Sally and Heero. "This isn't it. We still have College and a band. We'll stick together right?" Duo said smiling. "YEAH!" they all replied Heero smirked and wrapped his arms around Relena's waist. Relena yawned and Heero looked at her. "Tired?" he asked her. She shook her head and gave out another yawn. Heero's smirked turned into a grin. "Sure your not." he said she smiled and leaned her head to his.
"Relena." Relena sighed and looked to see Millardo standing there. "Good
job. It's time we go home. Okay?" he said and walked over to her. Relena
nodded and handed Hilde her keys. "Drive the girls home with my car. Give
the keys to me tomorrow." she said and yawned again. Hilde smiled and nodded
"Will do!" she said and Relena smiled. Relena looked at Millardo and he
nodded. "I'll be at the car." he said and walked off. Relena looked at
Heero and gave him a kiss on the check and walked off behind her brother
while waving to them. "Bye!" they all said. Heero smiled as he watched
her walk off.
