Opposites Attract
DISCLAIMERS: No I don't own Gundam, but I own a Gundam scroll, poster, comics, tapes, stickers, tattoos, and a Trowa poster! I own Trowa! (I wish!) Sadly, I could not think of any fanfics with Trowa, so I used Quatre for my idea. *sigh* Trowa...
Chapter 4: Just Friends, Or Is There More?
Kiana went to the mansion right away the next day. She had told her friends the great news and they were excited for her. They were also relieved because they knew she wouldnt have to work so hard or so much anymore. Even if she just reduced her work schedule of her other jobs just to the weekends.
She arrived at the gates and the guard let her in. She walked down the hallway and arrived in the servants quarters. A woman took out some clothes and gave them to her to change into.
"A blouse?" Kiana asked. She had never worn such a thing and was used to wearing just jeans and a shirt. She didn't excactly like dresses or skirts. Blouses weren't any better.
"Yes. It's uniform, so get in it and get to work," the woman said curtly. Kiana nodded stiffly and went to dress quickly. The woman gave her a schedule of things she would be doing daily in the mansion when she came to work. Kiana started on it right away. Her first job was to dust the library and later on organize anything out of order in the shelves.
Kiana was directed to the library and started dusting right away. She was almost done and didn't notice someone coming into the room. She turned around to finish the dusting and saw Quatre standing in the doorway. "Quatre?" Kiana looked away. She felt self concious in a dress.
"I was told that you didn't like dresses," Quatre said with a teasing smile. Kiana flushed in embarrassment.
"I've never worn one before, and frankly I never planned to. I like jeans and shorts just fine," she said.
"Don't worry about it. You look great," Quatre commented, which was true. The maids dress showed more of her figure and legs, which were tanned and perfect in guy's terms.
Kiana didn't know what to say to that. "T-thank you," she stammered. "I have to go back to work." She quickly finished the dusting and walked out of the room as quickly as she could. Her heart was racing and was scaring her. She never felt this way before. The day passed by quickly and she did not see Quatre for the rest of the day. A week passed by as she worked in the mansion. Some of the other maids were kind to her while others were just plain out mean. They were the ones who made trouble for Kiana, like making a mess after she had finished. Kiana quickly cleaned it up with out a complaint.
Kiana and Quatre became good friends and often talked to each other on Kiana's breaks. Kiana was finishing up her cleaning when Quatre came into the room. "Hey Kiana," he greeted.
"Hello Quatre," Kiana greeted happily. Her break was in a few minutes. Quatre looked at her in concern when he realized how pale she was.
"Are you alright?" Quatre asked. Kiana looked at him in confused surprise.
"Of course I am? Why do you ask?" Kiana answered.
"Well, you look pale," Quatre said worriedly. Then, he noticed that she had bruises on her legs. "Did someone hurt you?"
"No. Is there something wrong Quatre?" Kiana asked.
"You have bruises on your legs," Quatre said. Kiana looked at her legs and saw them. She had never noticed them before.
"I probably hit my legs on something," Kiana said, but was uncertain. She hadn't had anything hit her.
"I don't know," Quatre said in a worried tone.
"I'm fine."
"Alright. Do you want to go to the garden? I know you've been wanting to go for some time," Quatre asked. Kiana's face brightened.
"Sure." Quatre nodded and they both walked to the garden. Kiana gasped when she caught view of the garden. Quatre smiled.
"Do you like it?" he asked her.
"It's beautiful," she said in wonder. "I've never seen anything like it before. And it's so big." Quatre laughed.
"We can come here for your breaks from now on," Quatre said.
"Thank you Quatre," Kiana replied. She stared at the garden, taking in the beauty. Quatre smiled again and suddenly grabbed her arm. Kiana was jerked out of her trance and pulled into the garden. "Quatre!"
Quatre laughed and began to run into the garden. Kiana ran to keep up, but soon lost her friend among the flowers. "Quatre!" she shouted. She heard laughs, but could not find where they came from. She smiled mischieviously. "Okay, Quatre. If you want to play, then you'll get it." She ran among the flowers and looked for her friend. Her footsteps were quiet and swift. She searched through the garden and found her friend hiding among the trees. Kiana smiled and crept up behind him. He did not seem to notice her, but was looking over the branches in search of her.
"Gotcha!" Kina yelled as she pounced Quatre. He turned around only to be tackled to the ground. Kiana quickly got up and ran off as Quatre got up and chased after her. There was much laughter from both of them as they ran. Kiana ran to the fountain in the middle of the garden and sat down on the bench. Quatre came and sat next to her.
"Thought you could lose me, huh?" Kiana said. Quatre laughed.
"I almost did," he replied. He took her hand in his and held it tight. She leaned towards him.
"Almost," Kiana countered. They laughed again as footsteps came towards them.
"Looks like Quatre got himself got a girlfriend," a male voice said in amusement. The two turned to look at who it was and saw a boy with long braided hair. Quatre smiled as he saw his friends.
"Duo!" Quatre greeted. "It's nice to see all of you again." Duo grinned as the others came after him.
"So you gonna introduce me to your girlfriend?" Duo asked with a teasing grin. Quatre blushed.
"He's not my boyfriend. Just a friend," Kiana said. Duo turned to look at her.
"So who might you be?" he asked.
"Everyone, this is Kiana." Quatre introduced everyone and they greeted each other happily.
"Nice to meet all of you," Kiana said. She shook hands with all of the boys with a smile. "I think I have to go back to work now," she said ruefully.
"You sure?" Quatre asked. Kiana nodded. "Ok, see you later." Kiana said good bye to them and started to walk out of the garden, but fell to the ground instead.
"Kiana!" Quatre cried in alarm. He and the others saw her crumple to the ground. Quatre ran to where she lay as the other followed behind. Kiana's skin was deathly pale and the bruises on her legs seemed to have gotten bigger.
Kiana didn't stir as Quatre gently shook her. "She's unconcious," Heero said. "Let's take her to the hospital." Quatre nodded and they drove over to the hospital. Kiana was taken into a room and Quatre waited with the others.
"Duo, would you mind going over to apartments near my estate and get a girl by the name of Tahari? She's Kiana's best friend. If anyone gives you trouble, tell them that I sent you to get her and that Kiana's in the hospital, ok?" Quatre asked his friend. Duo nodded and ran out of the hospital. The doctors came out to get them a few minutes later. They walked to Kiana's room to find her in bed.
"Kiana! Are you okay?" Quatre asked. He ran to her side.
"Calm down Quatre. I'm fine. I don't know why I fainted, but I'm a lil dizzy. That's all," Kiana replied. Just then, Tahari and Duo burst into the room.
"Kiana!" Tahari shrieked. She ran over to her best friend's side and hugged her. "Are you okay? I heard what happened."
"I'm fine Tahari. Just a little dizzy," Kiana said.
"But you never get sick!" Tahari said. She frowned in confusion. The doctor came in then.
"Glad to se your awake," he said.
"Do you know what's wrong with her?" Tahari asked immediately. The doctor shook his head.
"I'm afraid not. We need to have her go through some tests before we know what's wrong," he said. "Until then, she will have to stay in the hospital."
"I'll stay with her," Tahari said.
"I'm afraid you can't," the doctor said. Tahari was going to say something else, but was interrutped.
"Don't worry about me Tahari. Tell the others I'll be fine," Kiana said.
"But-"
"No but's. They need to know what's going on." Tahari nodded reluctantly. "Good." Kiana then closed her eyes and fell asleep.
"Will I be able to stay with her?" Quatre asked.
"I'm afraid not," the doctor replied sadly. Quatre nodded as night fell. Everyone left the Kiana's room in gloom. They dropped Tahari off at her apartment and drove back to Quatre's estate.
"I'm sorry you had to go through such gloom after just getting here," Quatre apologized to his friends. They looked at him in surprise.
"It's not your fault Quatre. Don't go blaming yourself over nothing," Trowa said. Quatre nodded sadly. Duo put a comforting hand on his shoulder.
"She'll be fine," he said. Quatre said nothing for he was lost in thought.
"We'll see how it goes tomorrow," Wufei said. He did not want his friend to be unhappy.
Quatre nodded. They arrived at his estate and Quatre ran to the library. There was a medical book somewhere in the library. He found it in the third row of the second shelf. He turned through the pages, looking at the different symptoms until he found the one that matched Kiana's. He looked at what it was called and gasped. Tears pricked his eyes.
"Quatre? You in here?" Duo's voice called. He and the others walked into the library to find their friend on the floor shaking. They ran to him.
"Are you okay?" Trowa asked.
"No, I'm not okay!" Quatre said shakily. He slammed his fist on the ground.
"Quatre, what's wrong?" Wufei asked. Worry shone bright in his eyes.
"Kiana has cancer."
This is a nightmare come true, isn't it Quatre? The thought of a loved one dying can scare anyone. We'll see what happens.
