A few days later, Heero was on the way back to his apartment after work. It was about six o'clock, and the 16 year-old Japanese boy was starting to feel the pangs of hunger in his stomach. Across the street and a little ways up, Heeros saw a small, quiet-looking cafe, so he crossed the street and began making his way to it. A small group of people passed on his left, and moments later, he was aware of someone walking close beside him on the right. When he looked to see who it was, he was surprised to see Alira again. She was looking ahead, her face showing little expression whatsoever. Her light brown hair was down, and fell in graceful waves over her shoulders.
Alira noticed that Heero was looking at her, but when she turned to return his gaze, he managed to look elsewhere.
"Heero!" she said, raising her eyebrows and trying to sound surprised. "Imagine meeting you here!! How are you?"
The Perfect Soldier sighed slightly, and kept his gaze straight ahead as he replied. "I'm fine, but I was actually about to get some dinner," he said, keeping his voice monotone this time, but nodding towards the cafe when he mentioned dinner.
"Hmm.... I'm beginning to get hungry as well," Alira said thoughtfully. "I'll just have to join you!" The last remark was said with a grin that reminded Heero a bit of Duo.
"Hn...." Heero walked into the cafe with Alira behind him, and they sat down at a table near the back.
Alira began to realize that Heero wasn't at all like he seemed when she first met him on the street. It now appeared that he kept to himself, and didn't show his feelings in public. Strangely enough, that was how Alira herself usually acted, but for some reason or another, she had been acting much more cheerful lately than actually suited her.
"Oh great....." she thought, hiding her face in the menu that had just been delivered to the table. "He must think I'm some cheery freak of nature now........" This idea made her a little depressed, because it was completely opposite of what she was.
When the waiter returned to take their orders, Alira quietly stated that she wanted a Caesar salad, and handed him her menu with very little enthusiasm. This surprised Heero, and he looked up to see her nearly expressionless face studying the picture on the wall behind his head. The waiter had to clear his throat several times before Heero realized that he hadn't ordered yet. The waiter had also brought Alira back to reality, and she was now looking Heero right in the eye. Heero still hadn't ordered yet, and the waiter coughed politely to get his attention.
Alira blushed, and began examining her spoon carefully, and Heero finally ordered his soup and salad. The waiter walked off to get their order, and a few moments later, it was Heero who cleared his throat.
"So...." he started quietly, "Anything new?"
Alira looked up from her spoon, the light above their table making her eyes even lighter than usual. "No.... not really. Anything new with you?"
"Not that I can think of...." Just then, their waiter reappeared with a tray containing their meals, and two glasses of water. Heero and Alira were both relieved by this, as it meant they didn't have to think of anything to talk about.
The both finished at about the same time, and a few minutes later, Heero was given the check. Alira started to get the money for her salad out of her purse when Heero stopped her.
"Don't worry about it, Alira, I can pay for you.... It's not all that much more anyway...."
"Thanks...." she said, smiling slightly.
Heero took out some more money, and left some of it on the table as a tip. He and Alira were about to go pay the bill, when Duo and Hilde walked into the cafe. Duo spotted Alira and Heero almost immediately, and headed over to them, patting Heero heartily on the back.
"Heero! It's about time you got yourself a girlfriend!!" the cheerful American said, grinning, and blissfully unaware of the glares he was getting from both Heero and Alira. Hey.... She's pretty cute, Yuy.... When you're done with her, can I take her out on the town a couple times?" That comment got him a sharp elbow in the stomach and a glare from Hilde before Alira walked angrily off, her eyes quickly filling with tears. The Perfect Soldier gave the braided baka one of his death glares before paying the bill and going outside after Alira.
When Heero got outside, he couldn't see Alira anywhere, but he heard some loud, metallic thuds coming from down the alley next to the cafe. A few people pointed down that direction and whispered to each other about anger management. Walking into the shadows of the alley, Heero saw Alira attacking a severely dented metal trash can. She threw it into the air, and kicked it into the wall when it fell again. This went on for a few minutes, until Alira got a little winded. She stopped kicking the can, but proceeded to throw large rocks and broken pieces of concrete at it instead. This eventually tired her out as well, and she slumped against the brick wall, trying to catch her breath. Heero took that as his cue to enter the scene.
"Alira.... I, I'm really sorry about what Duo said in there.... he never knows when to keep his mouth shut." After those words, a low, growl-like sound escaped his lips as well.
She sniffed slightly. "Is.... is he always that rude?" I just wanted to hit him over the head with the cash register or something...."
"I could shoot him for you if you wanted," Heero suggested, pulling his gun from his belt. "I've been looking for a good reason to shoot that psychotic goof-off for quite a while now.... I don't even think Hilde would object this time...."
