Trowa looked at Heero. His hair was longer and a lighter shade. His Prussian eyes dimmer and yet lighter. The haunting look in them was stronger, though he put up a fake shield. Trowa looked at his white muscle shirt, black jacket and blue parachutes. Trowa's eyes widened as he saw that Heero's legs were gone. Heero followed his glaze and smiled an empty smile.

"The years did more bad to me than good."

Heero looked Trowa up and down. Starting from his black boots, to his light blue jeans, then his white sweater then to his really long bangs.

"I see time has treated you well my friend."

Trowa looked at Heero.

"Ho-how did you.....how are you......why are you...."

"How am I alive Trowa? Well, I never died. The Preventers were mistaken."

Trowa looked at him and suddenly froze.

"If you were alive, why didn't you go back to Relena? She loves you so much, why didn't you tell her?!?!?!"

Heero looked at him with angry and sad eyes.

"Go back to her like this?!?!"

Trowa noticed that Heero's eyes were clouding up.

"Heero, she loves you."

"Correction, loved. You did your job well."

Trowa shuddered and the look in Heero's eyes was one he didn't expect.

Flashback
Trowa looked at Heero as he stuffed Heero's stuff into the car, along with his.

"Heero, maybe you shouldn't go, you have Relena."

"And you have Catherine Trowa."

Heero looked at Trowa. Trowa blushed slightly.

"I would hate to see Relena hurt."

Heero looked at Trowa, his eyes serious and cold. He walked over to Trowa and with lightning speed tied Trowa up with rope. Trowa struggled against the binds but failed. Heero looked at Trowa and Trowa watched as a single tear fell from Heero's sad eyes.

"I won't make it Trowa. I know you love Relena, I want you to take care of her. Love her like I would love her; treat her like she deserves. Just be there."

Trowa shook his head.

"You'll make it!! Let me go!!!"

Heero shook his head.

"Promise me!"

Trowa could only nod.

"I promise because I know that you'll make it."

"Tell her I love her."

Trowa's world then went dark.

End

Trowa looked at Heero, confused, shocked and in pain.

"You know Trowa, Hope is beautiful, love your daughter."

Trowa looked at Heero with shocked eyes.

Flashback
The Gundam pilots were eating in the Peacecraft mansion. Everyone laughed as Duo spilled wine on his shirt and Hilde began to scowl him.

"Hilde!!! Calm down!! OW!!!! WATCH THE BRAID!!!"

Relena laughed, it had been two weeks since that day she was told Heero was gone and she was just beginning to recover. Suddenly, she felt nauseous and ran from the table. Everyone looked worried and Zechs was about to stand up and go after her when Noin stopped him. She stood up and mentioned for Sally to follow her. Noin and Sally stood outside as they listened to Relena in there, throwing up what little of the supper she ate. She came out, he looked horrible, her hair now loose of the ponytail she wore it in, her clothes ruffled and the makeup she wore to hide the dark circles under her eyes running. Sally frowned as Noin looked at Relena with worried eyes.

"Relena, how long has this been going on?"

Relena looked at Noin and smiled slightly.

"For about three weeks."

Sally looked at Noin, who gave Relena a knowing look.

"Relena, congrats, we think you're pregnant."

Sally smiled at Relena while Noin beamed at the girl. Relena's reaction was not one they expect her face was twisted in shock, which they predicated, by then she screamed in joy, then in shock and lastly fainted. Sally hurried to Relena's side and checked her pulse. She smiled at Noin's worried expression and smiled.

"She's just shocked, and besides, she's still stressed."

"I'd say."

The rest of the gang rushed through the door. Zechs rushed forward to Relena's side.

"Is she okay?"

Sally looked at Noin who shook her head.

"Come here Zechs."

Everyone watched as Noin led Zechs away to another room. Duo scratched his head and looked at Relena.

"Is Lena dead?"

Hilde looked at Duo and hit him hard over the head.

"You baka!!!"

Duo looked at Sally and frowned.

"What's wrong with Lena?"

"She's pregnant."

"SHE"S WHAT?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?!"

Everyone heard a scream from the next room.

"I guess Zechs found out."

Everyone watched as Zechs stormed back into the room, steam pouring from his ears. At that moment, Relena stirred. She opened her eyes and the first thing she saw was an enraged Zechs.

"Who's kid is it?!?!?!"

Zechs watched as Relena whimpered and started to cry. Everyone either glared at him or scowled at him. Zechs bent down and pulled his sister into a tight hug. He lifted her off the ground and carried her towards her bedroom. He tucked her in and smiled at her.

"You can tell me when you're ready."

"Heero..."

Zechs looked at her as his sister burst into tears once more.

"Heero's child...?"

End

"Hope's your daughter Heero."

Heero looked at Trowa with the same piercing blue eyes.

"I know."

Trowa froze as he looked at Heero.

"I gave her life, but you're her real father, the one who was there all along, the one she looks up to... the one she loves."

Heero looked at Trowa with unfallen tears in his eyes. He shook his head and the tears cascaded from his dim blue eyes.

"I love her, but you're her father, now and forever."

Trowa shook his head.

"No, I simply stepped in for you hen you were gone, you're her father."

"I wasn't there for her first step, I wasn't there for her first word, I'm not the one she called father."

Trowa shook his head.

"That doesn't matter, you're still her father."

Heero looked up at Trowa and smiled.

"So buddy, you want something to drink?"

Trowa smiled and nodded.

"Course pal."

Trowa smiled as for the next few hours, Trowa filled his friend in on what happened in the past 5 years.

"Woah, that's a lot."

"Where were you for all this time Heero? And what happened to you?"

Heero lowered his head and shook it.

"When I'm ready Trowa, when I'm ready."

Trowa nodded in understanding and looked at the clock.

"6 already?"

"You better get back before Lena gets worried."

Trowa nodded and stood up.

"Trowa, don't tell anyone you saw me, especially not Lena."

"Why..."

"When I'm ready Trowa. Only then."

Trowa looked into Heero's eyes and nodded. He opened the door, smiled at his friend and walked out. He walked into the street, his mind filled with thoughts of this encounter. 'What am I going to do? Should I tell?' He looked up at the apartment that held the man he thought died. He was shaken up and caught with indecision, Relena still loved Heero, and he could see it in her eyes. He could see her thinking of him every night as she looked at the stars. The tears that lit her eyes every time she saw a shooting star. He couldn't bear to hide it from her, but he had to.

"I can't tell."

He smiled as he walked into the sunset, walking towards his house, his gold ring glistening on his ring finger.
