Hey everyone! It's been awhile since I've updated this one...a long while. But I thank everyone who reviewed! Like I said before this fic is only 5 chapters max. I also may be changing some of your previous knowledge...so it's sorta in an AU.
Maoz- hey, don't forget me!
*rolls eyes * This is my muse Maoz...he's a bit of a jerk sometimes
Maoz-well, if that's what you think, then I just won't help you anymore!
NO!!!! Wait, I take that back! Some of you might remember him from my fic "One Fateful Night". He auctioned me off so I fired him... I decided to give him another chance. *grins* I also managed to get my disclaimer person back!!
Disclaimer-*growls* Wishful Thinker does not own anything to do with Gundam Wing but she does own Alexia, a.k.a Lexie
Very good disclaimer...here's a candy.
Disclaimer-*forces a smile*
Maoz-can we get on with things?
Hold on, there's something I've forgotten.... Oh yeah! How could I forget? I want to thank my reviewers and my ever-faithful beta reader Duo's Only Chick. You should go check out her fics.
Maoz-*tapping foot* are you done now?
Yesm
Maoz- good, now get typing!
Okies......
"Talking"
'Thoughts'
Death's Lessons
"Then you are weak for letting yourself be overpowered by a dead person. Maybe I should kill you just to prove that I'm still living" the voice suggested, pressing the katana deeper into Wufei's skin. Wufei gulped. He knew that this person would kill him without hesitation too.
"Lexie, it's you isn't it?" he managed to get out. To his relief, he felt the katana being taken away from his throat, letting him breathe a little more easily.
"So you do believe that I am alive" whoever Lexie was retorted. "I'm amazed that you even remember me". Wufei slowly reached back over to flick the light switch flooding the room with the artificial light.
The Chinese man took a look at his old 'friend', Lexie. She stood about 5'7 with jet-black hair in a short ponytail, framing her pale face. Her almond brown eyes flashed angrily at the fact that Wufei had actually remembered her.
"I...I thought you were dead." he mumbled. Lexie was wearing a tight fitting red tee-shirt and a pair of black jeans that seem to hang loosely off of her slim frame.
"Well obviously I'm not so you can stop staring." she snapped, sheathing her sword. "And my name isn't Lexie anymore, I go by Alexia...only Merien called me Lexie..." Alexia seemed somewhat subdued now that she had mentioned Wufei's former wife.
"Is that why you're here? To remind me of how weak I was?" Wufei retorted, growing angry. Alexia had been Merien's best friend on the colony. He could only take so many reminders of how stupid and weak he had been. But to Wufei's surprise, Lexie shook her head.
"No, I just decided to do that to see if you remembered. I kinda need a place to stay since our colony isn't there anymore..."she trailed off, looking pale and fragile now. Wufei's heart softened the slightest bit.
"I suppose you can stay here, but only for a bit. I have some friends coming for a visit soon" he muttered, walking towards the kitchen. "I guess you'll be wanting something to eat, come on". Alexia smiled slightly and followed her old friend into the kitchen.
'Same old Wufei...I wonder if he knows how I feel?'
*~*
Alexia leaned back in her chair, closing her tired eyes. Wufei studied her carefully. She seemed to have a great burden on her shoulders, like something had happened... "You didn't eat very much" he mumbled, taking both his and her plate to the sink for them to be washed. She shrugged.
"I ate enough" she replied. "You know I appreciate this". Wufei hid a smile.
"You better". He came back and sat down in his chair, wondering of he should ask a question that had him worried. A few minutes of awkward silence passed.
"Do you miss her?" the Chinese girl spoke up suddenly. Pilot 05 swallowed the lump that had been building up in his throat.
"What do you think? She was my wife" he retorted. It was Alexia's turn to hide a smile.
"She loved you since we were kids... you should have seen how happy she was when she found out that she was promised to you".
Wufei snorted. "Well she certainly hid it well". Lexie opened her eyes and turned her piercing gaze on Pilot 05.
"You weren't exactly Mr. Sensitive either. And I bet that if she hadn't tried to protect our colony from Oz, then you wouldn't have become a gundam pilot". Wufei gritted his teeth and walked over to the window.
"Why do you care what would have happened or not? And how the hell did you survive?" The question hung out in the open for a bit, until Alexia stood up and went beside Wufei.
"Oz came" she explained softly. "They raided our colony for war slaves to do dangerous tasks. Most of our people had gone off to war, except me. I was the only one left of our group. The elders couldn't do anything to stop them. They killed my father and took me. I was a slave for 2 years". Alexia shuddered as memories came flooding back. Wufei said nothing. He just looked outside at the cars going up and down the street. A few minutes later, he realized that Lexie was crying silently. He reached up and gently wiped one tear away.
"I'm sorry I wasn't there" he whispered. The Chinese girl gave him a watery smile.
"You can't always be there to protect me Wufei. When we were younger you did everything to make sure Merien and I were protected. Now that we're older, we have to depend on ourselves for more things". She thought for a moment then added. "You probably would have just been captured too so it's good that you weren't there".
Wufei smirked and continued to look out the window. He had protected the 2 girls in the past but what Lexie said was true. You couldn't depend on anyone but yourself, as you grew older. He jumped when he felt a hand on his shoulder.
"Here" Alexia said gently. "I want you to have this". She held out a picture of a beautiful girl who Wufei recognized instantly; it was Merien. "I know you don't have any pictures of her and I managed to save this one and I thought you would like it" she explained softly. "And I also wanted to say thanks for letting me stay here". Wufei took the picture and set it down on the windowsill.
'Sometimes I wish that Merien were still here, but would I where I am now if she was here? She would probably just laugh at me for being sad. She would call me weak and tell me to get on with life. Knowing my luck she's laughing at me from heaven right now' Wufei thought amusedly. 'Happy Birthday Merien. Please, allow me to do what is right'. "It's getting late" he grunted. "You can have my room and I'll take the couch".
"You don't have to do that" Lexie argued, temper flaring up. 'I can sleep on the couch".
"Alexia, please" Her friend whispered. Alexia's annoyance melted. She swallowed her pride.
"Call me Lexie Wufei, just like old times"
*~*
Alexia's eyes snapped open in the middle of the night, her body rigid with pain. "No" she whispered, squeezing her eyelids shut, praying that it was a dream. "Not now, I just found him". It felt as though knives were being stabbed into her body. Some tears leaked out of her tightly shut eyes and fell onto the pillow. "God, please let this be a dream!"
*~*
Wufei woke up feeling better than he had in a few weeks. He had a shower in his other bathroom and threw on a pair of black boxers and a white t-shirt. He walked leisurely down the hall and knocked on the closed door to his bedroom. "Lexie? Are you up yet?" No response. "Lexie? I'm coming in" Wufei called, for some reason feeling like something wasn't right. He slowly opened the door and stepped into the bedroom. He wrinkled his nose as a foul smell met up with it; the smell of vomit. He looked at the dishevelled bed. Covers were strewn everywhere and there was a light on in the bathroom that was connected to his bedroom. "Lexie?" Wufei rushed to this light and pushed open that half closed door. He gasped when he saw Alexia lying on the floor with a pile of blood and vomit next to her. "Oh god!" He hurriedly knelt beside her to try and find her pulse. "Lexie, come on! Wake up!" he cried, searching for the pulse desperately. He couldn't seem to find one. He immediately stood up and ran to the phone. With a shaking finger he dialled '911'.
"Hello emergency services. Please state the nature your emergency," a voice said calmly on the other end.
"Please! You've got to help me" Wufei said, feeling very scared and out of touch with his emotions at this moment. "My friend has collapsed and I can't find a pulse!"
