Okay I've decided…this is the second to last chapter…just to warn you.

"HEERO!!!" Duo's loud (and constant) voice woke Heero from thought.

Heero glared at Duo. "What is it?" He said in a warning tone.

Duo pointed to the open window, which displayed the rising sun. "You said you were taking her didn't you?"

"This early? Isn't the ransom pick-up time dusk?"

"Yes but do you really want to be delivering the princess with royal bodyguards, not to mention police swarming at your feet. Plus there's got to be some plan to make sure they get the better of the deal…meaning that they get the princess back and they don't have to pay. And since you're the smartest of us I figure you can figure out a way to avoid this."

Heero sighed. "I suppose you're right."

"I'm always right."

"Sure."

Duo scowled. "Here take these." Duo said handing Heero a large detective looking hat and sunglasses (I don't know if they had sunglasses during this time but humor me!!!).

"Thank you." Heero said sarcastically.

Duo scowled again. "What about Relena? We should disguise her too." Heero said.

"Give her the hat."

"Fine." Heero said.

Heero gave a look to Relena. Yesterday when he got back from his long 8-hour shift they talked non-stop about Duo and his irresponsibity. They talked until Duo actually got there at 2. When Heero came back from his shift at 10 he slept and she watched him. Now he was back and it was 8 in the morning and time for her imprisonment to end. Only it wasn't really imprisonment anymore. More like…where she didn't move around but other people did. Like her clock slowed down but everyone else's clocks were running as per usual.

Heero and Relena walked to the door. "Oh and Heero." Duo called.

"What?"

"Don't screw up."

Heero smiled. "Do I ever?"

It was Duo's turn to smile. "I knew I could trust you."

Heero and Relena left the dusty house. They exited the Duo Maxwell Gang Territory in less than twenty minutes. They got to the bank in thirty.

"Well that was quick." Relena said.

"Sure was." Heero said quietly. He had been so used to seeing her in dim light that it was stunning how beautiful she looked in broad daylight.

"What do you want to do until…" Relena left off.

"Why don't we rob the bank?"

Relena scowled. "Well…that's what I usually do when I'm here."

Relena looked around. "Let's get a drink."

"What do you mean like water or…"

"Beer."

"You drink alcohol?"

"I drink wine."

"Wine and beer are two different things."

"So? There's a first time for everything."

"True." Heero said as Relena dragged him to the near by salon. She stopped dead in her tracks five feet from the salon.

"You have money right?"

"Yeah…why?" He said showing her a fistful of dollar bills.

"I don't want to steal a drink."

Heero sighed. "Your morals are too high."

"And yours are too low." She said as they walked inside.

They walked to the counter and Heero said to the bartender, "Two beers."

The bartender robotically brought them their beers and took Heero's money. Heero put his drink to his lips and swallowed half of the cup. Heero looked at Relena's…and all of her drink was gone. Heero's mouth fell down (This is what Heero looked like: o_O).

"What?" Relena asked then after some thought. "Wine is better."

Heero sighed. "Okay we did what you wanted to do…now it's time for what I want to do." He dragged her out of the salon and back to the bank.

"I am not robbing the bank." Relena said firmly.

"Don't worry. It's nothing illegal." Heero said stepping down on the stoop of the bank. Relena followed suit. "Okay. We're going to play a little game. I call it "Watching the People" but it's really much more. What we're going to do is pick a person and we will discuss what we think their lives are like."

"Okay. I like that."

Heero pointed to a skinny tan young man waiting by the salon. "Okay tell me what you think." Heero said.

"I think his name is Brian. He used to work at a salon but got fired for drinking most of the products. He's a suffering alcoholic who's been sober for a week. He's going through hell and really wants a drink but doesn't dare go inside to break the promise he's made to himself."

"Okay my turn. His name is Shelly. He used to live in Australia but came here for gold. Halfway here he decided since he really wants to go back to his family that he would just see the ocean and come back. He's standing outside of the salon because he doesn't have enough money for a drink and since he has a great sense of smell the smell of beer satisfies him as much as the taste."

Relena laughed. "Okay now what about…"

They looked at a fat man Relena thought was a pro wrestler in disguise and whom Heero thought was a rich fat man. They looked at a skinny tall woman who Relena thought was a stuck up librarian and whom Heero thought was a struggling ballet teacher. They were discussing Bart, the struggling actor when Heero sat up. "The cavalry arrives." He said softly.

Relena turned and she could see the large white cars that were a trademark of her family. "Oh." She simply stated.

"Good-bye Relena." He said.

"Wait…when are you leaving for the Caribbean?"

"First ship out I suppose."

"Okay."

"Are you going to come?"

"I'll see if I can."

Heero nodded and looked at the ground. The thunderous doom-bringing white cars were getting closer. Relena put her fingers to Heero's face and gently brought his face to hers. She softly pressed her lips to his.

"Remember Heero." She said with tears in her eyes. "Some things just happen."

Heero nodded. The white cars stopped in front of the bank. Heero quickly drew his gun and put it to Relena's head. "Alright throw me the money or BANG goes the princess."

The money was thrown at Heero's feet. He picked it up and quickly counted it and made sure it wasn't counterfeit. Heero put down his gun and Relena walked back to his family. Relena looked back at Heero and mouthed "Remember Heero."

Heero nodded and smiled. Relena joined her family and disappeared into the white cars. When they disappeared into the dark. Heero allowed one lone tear to slide down his face. He started the walk home. He looked back to where Relena had left him.

"Good-bye Relena."

"Good-bye…"

"Good-bye…my love."

Awwwwwwwwwww. Last chapter tomorrow. :-D.
