Saving Two Worlds p.6: Back Together



By: Angels tears



It was nearly dinner, and there was still no sign of Relena, Heero, or any of the other. Quatre was ready to have a nervous breakdown, Trowa was stuck trying to calm him down, and Wufei was ready to kill Quatre. They were having just a wonderful time. It was beginning to look hopeless for their friends return, since the only option to believe now was terrorists had kidnapped them.

"But, Trowa, they'd be back. I know they'd be back by now, even if they've been kidnapped, Heero and Duo could handle that." Quatre huffed, giving Trowa a glare.

"That doesn't mean their dead. It only means they're having trouble. Give them a bit more time. Relena isn't the most cooperative person, you know that." Trowa replied, sounding almost as if he were pleading with him. Quatre nodded.

Hitomi stood in the middle of her room. It wouldn't be long now, until she brought the others home. And what of her? Well, she'd return to Gaea, and then she'd defeat Nemesis and stay forever in Fanelia, even if Van didn't love her. At least she'd always be watching over him, keeping her word to Varie. Things hadn't been working out the way she had hoped. She wanted something to change soon, to let her know Van still loved her. Someone knocked at her door.

"Come in." she called in reply. The door opened and in walked Van. 'Talk about a fast answer.' she thought. "What?" she asked him in cold tones.

"I wanted to talk to you, Hitomi. It's about Emera."

"Well I don't want to talk about Emera." She noticed he was walking kind of funny. "So please leave, now. I'm not in the mood."

"I'm not leaving. I'm a king, and you're not." Hitomi rolled eyes. "Now, I want you to listen carefully. I'm only marrying Emera because I've yet to find a wife on my own. I wanted to wait until you returned, but my advisors chose her for me." He led Hitomi to her bed and sat down. "I want you to be my wife. I love you, Hitomi, and I want to spend an eternity with you. I want nothing more and nothing less, please, be my queen." he concluded, smiling at her.

"Van, I-I," she was speechless, that was the last thing she was expecting at the moment. She looked him in the eyes, there was a look of something in there, but she just couldn't tell what it was. "Yes, Van, yes I will be your queen." She wrapped her arms around his neck and kissed him passionately. She suddenly pulled away. "What about Emera?"

"My advisors gave me until next week to find a queen of my own choice, or I had to marry her." he replied, as he brought her back into the kiss.

*********************

Hitomi looked into the mirror as she brushed her hair into place, as it had been a few hours ago. Things had gotten a bit out of hand, and yet neither regretted it. It was of mutual agreement, and since they were practically engaged now, they didn't feel like waiting.

"Hey, Sunshine." Van whispered in her ear. There was an unmistakable grin on his face. A smile crossed Hitomi's face, too, as he placed his arms protectively around her. "I think we're supposed to be eating."

Hitomi nodded, leaning back into him, and they both lapsed into silence. For the first time in a long time she felt truly happy. There was nothing wrong, with the exception of Nemesis. How was she to tell him she spoke with Varie? She'd have too soon. Pounding mixed with Merle's excited voice broke the silence. Did she know what Van and her had just been doing?

"Yes, Merle?" Hitomi answered the frantic knocking.

Merle burst in, catching a view of what she'd hoped to see.(And yes they are dressed! I don't write that kind of stuff) "Oh my god!" she squealed, and hugged them both. "I can't believe you two are finally together. Lets tell everyone right now and get rid of Emera."

Van squeezed Hitomi gently. "Up to you."

"Let's be nice here. Wait until we get to Fanelia, then, Van, you can tell your advisors you found a wife of your own choice, and things will be dealt with in a mature manner. I think that's best." Hitomi replied confidently. Van helped her stand up and walked her down to the dining hall.

*************************

Hitomi ate her food quickly. She was sitting between Allen and Duo, and things there weren't quite happy. They were constantly competing for her attention, and yet the only one to earn her attention was Van. During the entire dinner, they exchanged several glances. They both smiled, and smiled, yet neither told why.

"Come on, Hitomi. Tell me why you're so happy." Duo coaxed her, placing a possessive arm on her shoulder. Van glared at him until he saw Hitomi shake it off. She looked somewhat annoyed. "What's up with you?"

"Leave Hitomi alone, Duo." Relena warned as she and Millerna shared a knowing look in Hitomi's direction.

Hitomi felt her face heat up. They could tell, but how? Not even Merle knew. How could they tell? It was getting to her quickly.



Well that's it for now. Hope you all enjoyed this part as much as all the others. Sorry it's kind of short, I just did 3 parts in a row, and it getting really late now. Well, there you have the starting of Hitomi's and Van's oh-so-sweet relationship, and it's a secret. Please r&r. Thanx. Angels tears
