~~~~^_^ I dedicate this story to all the Heero & Usagi fans^_^~~~~
A maid was called to clean up Wu-chan's mess, and Yuuki's water adventure; and after that the kitchen was called, to order breakfast for Heero and Usagi. As they ate at the table in the room, the four children slept, much to their advantage on the bed so that they were able to truly talk.
Usagi assured Heero that she was feeling fine, not even with the slightest hint of a headache or feeling faint. It was also very obvious to him that she had not regained her memory of Mamoru. This was good. He didn't want her to feel any anguish. He wanted her to keep the same feelings she had toward him now, forever.
For the next hour all they did was talk, something Heero never did yet found himself enjoying. He was a man of few words but found it so easy to talk to Usagi about anything...almost anything. He had to ease around their conversations so that he didn't let her know that he was an assasin. An assasin who had killed her boyfriend and been somewhat responsible for the condition she was in now. No...it wasn't his fault, he had to stop having thoughts like these, push them out of his mind. Mamoru was the one to blame, not him. But because of Mamoru he had been able to meet Usagi, maybe one of the only good things about him.
Usagi was such a happy person, full of life, spirit, and dreams. As she talked and smiled, he felt as if she was a person he'd known his entire life. He liked her, he liked her alot. Actually it was more then like it was...No, he'd just met her how could he...how could he...how could he ever...
Meri woke up and began crying, Seigi was right behind her. Usagi left the table and picked up Meri, Heero followed behind her and picked up Seigi. After a few minutes both stopped crying, showing how cheery they could be in good moods. Yuuki and Wu-chan began to slowly wake up from the crying and then the phone began to ring. Heero set the content Seigi down on the bed and answered it.
"So your're still alive?" Wufei's voice sounded from the opposite end with a laugh. "Well I hope all my kids are, too."
Heero didn't answer just grinned to himself.
"Heero... you didn't..."
"Wufei, they're fine." Heero assured. "Is that what you called for?"
"No, I need to ask another favor of you. We got the time wrong, the Circus performs at 12:00 and Noin and Sally aren't even close to finished with touring the Casino together. Do you think you and Usagi could take the kids?"
Heero paused, being in an enclosed room with the four and being out in the open world with them were two different things. He looked to Usagi who was playing with a happy Meri. Usagi sensed his look and turned to him.
"What is it?"
"Wufei, wants to know if we can take the kids to the Circus at 12:00."
"Sure we can!" she said without a second thought, she then lifted Meri into air, "We're going to the Circus, aren't we?" she cooed to her in a gentle, sweet voice.
'She's amazing' Heero thought to himself, 'Just amazing.'
" -are you still there, Heero?"
Heero broke his entrancement with Usagi. "Yeah, no problem, we'll take them to the Circus."
"Thanks man."
The phone call ended and Heero looked to the clock on the wall, it was 11:37, he had less then half an hour to prepare himself for this excertion. His gaze then met with that of Usagi's and he was once again reminded of her warmness.
"This is going to be so much fun, isn't it Heero?"
Fun. That was a word that didn't fit into his life. With Usagi he'd been taking a lot of firsts and this would be another. "Yeah," he replied. He would make the effort to truly enjoy himself, make the best of it, and...have fun. It wouldn't be hard, Heero could overcome anything, and with Usagi by his side he felt as if anything was possible.

In one of the security rooms of the Casino a shadowed human figure with evil intentions stood over a bin of survailence videos and was riffling through them. The guards of the room were knocked out on the floor as well as the rooms controllers. Finally coming to the video they'd been searching for, the figure popped it in and began to view it's contents. On it was the footage of what had taken place in Quatre's suite from the time Mamoru was brought in and tied up to the time he was shot. At first a little struck by shock the figure shook it off and clenched their fist in determination.
"You will pay with your life...both of you."

As the group of six was making their way to the Circus, they met up with Quatre and Minako, who were also headed that way.
"Wow, Usagi you look like you've got your own happy little family," Minako teased.
Usagi slightly blushed at this comment and in a deep down part of her soul, she slighty wished it could be true. She took notice of the young man Minako was with. "Is this Quatre?"
"Yes, I am," he answered. "And you must be Usagi, how are you feeling? I hope you don't have anything against me for slipping in my casino and bumping your head."
"Of course not. I'm just a bit clumsy," she said, blushing a little more. "And I feel fine, thanks for asking."
Minako walked to Usagi's side. "Has Heero been taking good care of you?" she asked giving her a little nudge in the side."
"I could ask you the same thing about Quatre." and with that Usagi continued walking.
When they all reached the giant colloseum size room, Quatre escorted them to front row seats. Minako and Quatre sat next to each other with Meri and Seigi on their laps. Heero and Usagi sat next to each other with Yuuki and Wu-chan in their own seats between both couples.
The Circus proved to be as grand and impressive as the casino itself. Each act was more impressive then the next and the children were all happy to see 'Uncle' Trowa as a part of the events. Usagi even spotted Ami on the side lines, for any situations that may pop up.
Heero just sat back and couldn't believe the position he was in. Babysitting, watching Usagi, and at a Circus. All things he never would have even imagind himself to do, ever. But it was good. He was actualy enjoying himslef. It was such a great change from waking up, killing someone, and coming home. His life was changing, and very quickly, he began to realize that if he had to choose from the life of an assasin or a settled down normal life, maybe even with Usagi, he'd choose normal life.
He'd been killing all these years because he thought it was the only thing he was capable of doing. But Usagi had shown him that he was wrong. He was more then an assasin. He was a person. A person that had the capability to enjoy life.
Heero glanced at Usagi, who was completely focused on the Circus. She was noting short of breathtaking. She was like a missing link that could complete him. And he now understood why she and his Angel were like two in the same.
The lights dimmed, which demonstrated the end of the Circus. During this time which normally would seem like a matter of seconds, everything seemed to move in slow motion as Heero saw something that for another one of his firsts, made him feel fear. Fear for Usagi's life. A red laser was pointed directly at her forehead. Being an assasin he knew all too well what the laser was for, Heero, as quickly as he could, grabbed Usagi and pulled her onto the ground. No sooner had he done so a bullet pierced through the room and hit the man that had been sitting directly behind Usagi, who now lay on the ground with Heero on top of her.
"Heero," she said in a voice full of many emotions. But most of all gratitude.
As the lights were brought to full brightness. Screams began to echo as the people around the man who had been shot saw him. Ami rushed over and checked his lifeless body,
"He's dead."
