All good things must come to an end… sorry everyone here's the conclusion. Please tell me what you think. I kind of didn't want to speed up the ending, but I'm writing a very complicated fic right now. This is an old one of mine, actually, that I never finished until now, thanks for the reviews, that really inspired me to finish this, thanks everyone and now I shall present to you the conclusion to my story ^_^

Chap. 6!

"Wow Heero, his eyes have been opened for over 5 minutes and nobodies said a word."

"Shut up."

"I think he's getting lonely just laying there staring at us. Just look at those puppy dog eyes, they look so sad, and look at that bottom lip just sticking out, he looks so sad-are you crying Heero?"

"Shut up, you hurt my feelings."

"Well look at him, he's so sad... Heero give him a hug, he needs one-"

"Bu-bu-but he doesn't like me anymore!"

"Wow the emotional Heero Yuy, I don't know which of you needs a hug worse, poor little Quatre or you."

"Quatre please wake up..."

I felt someone embrace me, and I sighed, "Heero..." I squinted, I could hardly make out his hair but I was sure it as him, I blinked.

"Quatre, don't go back to sleep, we're here to help you, don't go back to sleep, please..."

"Heero, you've said that the last billion times he's mumbled something."

"Duo...." I tried desperately to make out him but it was no use.

"Buddy boy! Are you finally waking up?"

I felt a sudden bounce beside me and I squinted," I can't see you..." I fought to stay up.

"Don't worry Quatre I have you some food here, and you don't have to see, just keep talking."

"Heero..." I moved my hands about trying to find his face.

"You don't have to move, just talk, it's been two weeks Quatre, you missed two whole weeks Quatre, you can't sleep anymore, just don't tire yourself."

"I-Heero, Duo..."

"Yeah that's me kid, I'm here with ya, and you just keep mumblin' crap."

"Shut up Duo!"

"Such anger... damn that rap music!"

I laughed.

"That is the oldest piece of crap I've ever heard."

"Shhh...." I quieted them.

"Sorry, you've probably heard a lot of that haven't you?" Heero asked.

I nodded.

"Here's some tea, it's cooled down some so it wont burn you" i felt the rim of a cup come up to my mouth and the liquid inside touch my lip and I instantly sipped from the glass.

"Peppermint..."

"It's actually all Duo brought, he had us convinced for a while that it was good for us and that was the only reason he kept serving it, he lied."

I laughed again and took another sip.

"I happen to like it."

"I bet that's a lie too."

"How did you know!?!"

"Because I know you."

"I like it though... it's very refreshing." I said taking a drink.

"Me too but still..."

"Repetitive food and drinks can get really old."

"Shut up... he like's it that's all that matters right?"

I smiled and sipped," I feel so tired-"

"No!" all their voices shouted in unity.

"Just kidding," I laughed, then noticed something missing, "My cast..."

"Yeah it's been that long, it's healed really good now."

"Duo and I are going to go fishing."

"Okay, see ya."

There was silence in the room, but as soon as it came it ended.

"Quatre please talk to me. Tell me what happened."

"Heero..." I whined," I-I just can't."

"You need to get it off of your chest, please trust me, trust us your comrades."

"Heero... it's too awful," I felt tears begin to rise.

"Tell me how it happened, please."

I gave up, if I was going to talk about it was going to be with Heero, "I-I-it was just after new years day, you know. I was off partying, well coming back from partying and I was alone. I was just walking. It was so dark I didn't see a thing, and well before I knew it I was being chased. I tried to run but I tripped and fell," I stopped to let out a short sob, "He caught me Heero. He caught me and he-he raped me. Nobody even saw. he raped me in the middle of an empty alley, nobody even heard me." I stopped.

I felt Heero's tears, "Nobody..." he repeated softly, "I'm so sorry."

I turned over and shut my eyes, my body felt as if it were on fire, I felt scared.

Heero put his hand on my shoulder.

"Please don't touch me anymore, Heero, I can't bare it," I said as my body trembled.

Heero automatically lifted his hand and left the room without another word

When I awoke the next day, my sight had returned, everything was quiet, it was hardly morning even the stars still rested in the light lavender sky.

I sat up and stretched, my hair was a mess, but I grabbed my pants and left the room yawning. Snores could be heard from the others rooms, not a soul was awake. I padded across the deck to the left side and sat down staring over the edge.

I watched as a school of fish swam by and some larger fish following, but my eyes began to concentrate on another image, my reflection.

I was pale, my eyes sunken in and my once bright blue eyes were gray, my hair no longer had its golden glow but hung limply almost white with hardly a hint of blond. What had I become? Has it been that long? I was such a small boy when it happened, why me? The questions filled my head, "Where did you go?" I asked my reflection, a tear fell from my eye, "You left me all alone."

I brought my knees to my chest and lightly cried, then to my surprise a ray of light peeked from behind the ocean line, I looked up and met the rising of the sun. I squinted to keep watching.

It was so beautiful, my whole life I had watched beautiful sun sets and sun rises, all signaling a new beginning or an end, the sky seemed to dance in the bright oranges and pinks, purples and dark blues, and the sun was a beautiful gold. Then something seemed to whisper in my ear, I looked down, two bright bleu eyes met my own, golden locks shined and blew in the wind, even the reflections face was full of life. It was me, after all the time I was alone and scared here I was just gazing at my own self.

"I'm sorry..." I whispered and laid down. The soft rocking of the boat and the warmth of the morning sun sang to me and I closed my eyelids and rested. I wanted more then anything to live right then, to repeat that moment forever, but with the sun there came a beginning and I chose to embrace this new future of mine.

~*~

Yo, Buddy!" Duo's voice entered my mind unwelcome and I groaned.

"Leave me alone..." I whined.

Duo sniffed sadly.

Then I looked up at him and gave him the biggest smile I could fit across my face.

Duo smiled back, "You look so much better."

"I feel much better," I said.

There was silence.

Duo waved his hand trying to cool down.

I laughed, "So, I don't really have to go home now do I? I can spend a few more weeks out here on vacation?"

"I guess so," Duo smiled, "But I hope you have a strong stomach for peppermint tea and fish!"

We both burst out laughing.

~*~

The break did me some good, I returned refreshed and ready to take on anyone, I now had a regular councilor I visited, and Duo, Heero, Trowa and I kept in touch, we all learned a lesson about neglecting our friends, and we promised never to make the mistake again. I still felt the pain of being raped, of course, but instead of coping with it alone I had friends to bring me through it all. Thank you.
