Part 3
Hilde opened the door to the condo she shared with Jessi to find Wufei and Trowa standing on the doorstep. "Hey you guys come on in!" Guides them into the living room and indicated for them to sit. "Make your selves at home. I have to go finish some things in the kitchen." With that she leaves the two of them alone.
Trowa looked around the room and got up and went into the kitchen. He walked up behind her while she was in front of the stove tasting her pasta sauce and said in a soft voice. "Can I help you with anything?"
Hilde backed right into him. "Oh God, Trowa, I'm sorry. You scared me!" She composed her self and turned to him. "So, can I get you something to drink? A beer, maybe?"
He nodded and accepted the beverage. "So where's Duo?"
"Oh, uh," She stammered and started to choke up. "We're not together anymore. I'm living with Jessi now."
"Why?"
"I caught Duo cheating on me."
"With who?"
"His new boyfriend."
"Boyfriend?" His eye grew extremely wide. "I didn't know Duo had a thing for guys."
"Neither did I 'til I saw them getting it on in the backseat of his car." She choked.
"Who is this boyfriend?"
"Heero" Hilde finally broke into sobs.
While Trowa was trying to absorb all this information he didn't notice Hilde crying. When he did he put his strong arms around her and whispered his apologies for bringing it up and soothing words into her ear.
,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,
"Hey, Hilde, did you buy any hair gel today?"
Wufei looked up to see a soaking wet Jessi wrapped in a tiny, forest green, terry cloth towel and his eyes widened and then fell to the floor.
"Oh!," Jessi cried in surprise and unconsciously tugged the hem of her towel down. "Sorry I didn't know Hilde's friends were hear already. Um I'll just go get dressed." She said as she dashed back down the hall.
Hilde walked back into the living room followed by Trowa. "Was Jessi just out here? I could've sworn I've heard her."
"Uh, yeah, she wanted to know if you'd gotten any gel. But, then she left."
"Oh, darn I forgot that."
Jessi walked back into the room in jeans and her and a long-sleeve purple T-shirt. "Jeez I sure made a good first impression huh,?" She directed the comment towards.
"That's an understatement." He mumbled under his breath.
"Hey, I meant it when I said I could kick your ass."
"Jessi, I'd like you to meet Trowa Barton and Chang Wufei." Hilde said trying to change the subject before her roommate got herself into trouble and indicated both men and they nodded to Jessi.
"Hi, I'm Jessi it's nice to meet you." She smiled
"Let's go into the kitchen for dinner." Hilde got up and they followed her in.
,,,,,,,
Here's the conversation that happened during dinner.
"Hilde this is fantastic!" Jessi complented as she shoved another piece of pasta in her mouth. The others agreed.
"Thanks."
"Welcome."
"Jessi, you know that Trowa and Wufei were friends of Duo's in the war?" Hilde asked.
"Oh, no I didn't, do you two know Heero?"
"Yes, we worked closely with him." Trowa answered.
"Wow, it must have been exciting, working with the Gundam Pilot."
"Gundam PILOT?" Wufei quirked an eyebrow.
"Yeah Heero said the he piloted the Gundam's in the war" Jessi said innocently.
"Wait, Wait, Heero told you he was the ONLY Gundam Pilot?" Hilde asked in her puzzlement.
"Yeah. Why? Isn't it true?"
Wufei snorted and Trowa answered, "No there were five of us."[1]
"Oh." Then she realized what they meant. "Oh! You mean you guys were Gundam Pilots?"
"Yes." Wufei said sharply.
"Heero, that little bastard" Jessi fumed as she blushed. "That must have been really exciting!"
"Hn, I suppose so," Trowa said thoughtfully.
"So, Jessi, if you don't mind my asking, what were you doing that you didn't know that there were more than one pilot?" Wufei asked. Jessi sat silently for a second and her face clouded in memory.
"How 'bout I get some dessert ready?" Hilde tried to change the subject, but Jessi grabbed her arm as she got up.
"No, Hilde, it's all right," Jessi told her and she sat down with her eyes focusing intently on the table cloth. "My father, was a building engineer for OZ. He designed several of their bases. It was all against his will of cousre. But, I was his only family and they threatened my safety if he didn't do it. When he was finished they..." Her voice trailed off and she gulped down a sob. "They shot him and locked me away in a cell. I don't even know how long I was actually there, when Heero found me when he was on one of his missions. I thought he was going to take me away from that awful place, but he asked me to stay around and try to break a few things. Not anything big, but small things that would take up the soldiers time while he went after bigger targets. SO, I did and a few months later he took me away." She smiled slightly. "Since I didn't have anywhere to go he set me up in an apartment here. Once the war was over he moved in with me. I was glad he did though. It took me a long time to be able to function in normal society."
Everyone was silent for a long time before Wufei finally spoke in a voice plainly showing his anger. "He just left you there? A civilian to do his dirt y work?" He didn't understand why, but suddenly he wanted to grab Heero by the collar and strangle him for doing that to her. Jessi only nodded.
"Yes. But, it's okay now, I have a steady job and a nice place to live and a friend to talk to."
"No." Wufei said, "You have three friends to talk to." Trowa nodded and Jessi gave them a smile that melted Wufei's insides.

Okay, I know its another short one, but I've lost my train of thought. So how do you like it? Let me know!
