sclamier: 'Gundam Wing' and names and places associated with 'Gundam Wing' don't belong to me. Could someone please fill me in on who they do belong to, because I'm not sure. I'm not in any way attempting to make any money of this.
A/N This was orinaly an X-men story starring none other that Remy and Jubilee. So that's why everyone is OOC don't let that stop you reading it though!
Promises to Keep.
She felt like she was sinking deeper and deeper under and no matter how much she called for help they never came. Trying to tell them she drowning they just thought she was waving for help and they would wave back smiling. None of them cared. None of them noticed her changing state of emotions. Not even her ever stoic Heero noticed.
Relena continued to stalk angrily down the hall.
Some nights she woke up having to muffle her screams not knowing where she was. The Sanc Kingdom which had once seemed so safe, filled her full of fear. It was too big and she got lost too easily. No one noticed her self-inflicted isolation. Sometimes she felt like she was standing in a dark room, she could still here their voices drifting over, snatching parts of the conversation for her but she was never truly part.
She sighed softly maybe this just wasn't her home anymore. Maybe she needed to leave and find out who she was now. Lost in her thoughts she didn't see anyone else in the corridor until her nose connected with a well-toned body.
"Ouch! Will ya watch where you're going."? She snapped.
She looked up to see Duo violet eyes stare back down at her. She had thought he was away on a mission and didn't know that he had come back. Well of course she didn't know he was back. No one bothered tell her anything.
Duo didn't miss the flicker of anger pause briefly over her face and then fade away to be replaced by a weariness he had never seen before on Relenas face. One he had never hoped to see.
"You ok princess?" His eyes were searching her face intently and Relena forced herself to look straight back at him.
This didn't sound the same as the usual harried question she got. Which was more of a greeting than anything else and she always had the same well-prepared answer for them that never got much of response. One day they were going to ask her and she was going to tell them and keep telling them. Then she would like to see how they reacted.
She glanced at him wondering wheatear or not she should tell him. Then she shook herself mentally. He's just been nice, he's just been Duo.
So instead she used her well-rehearsed answer. "I'll be fine."
She went to move out of his way and keep walking. When his words stopped her.
"Want to talk about it?"
How she longed to tell someone about it without them judging her or saying that she'll get over it. How she had wanted to hear someone say that to her so she could be told that it was going to be all right. But she had never expected Duo to ask her that.
"I-" Suddenly she felt very shy, how did she know this would be different."
"I-. No it's alright." While saying that she hadn't realised she was nodding her head.
Duo picked up on the confusion inside her, the immense hurt and pain. "No it's not alright Relena. That's not what your body language is telling me."
Relena looked up at him the confusion evident in her eyes.
"Want to talk about this in the garden? There's too many ears in here."
Relena wanted to hug him with relief. Stopping herself when she remembered whom it was talking to her. Duo, the guy who had resuced when, Heero had tried to kill her, whom she than stood in front of to protect Heero.
Duo smiled suddenly seeing a bit of the old Relena he knew creep back into her face and he sensed her sudden embarrassment. This was the Relena he remembered. Somehow he felt this was all that was left of her.
End of Chapter one.
A/N: Don't worry I'm still working on 'Distorted Vision', just I'm without a spellchecker and it's making it a lot harder to write, plus I already had this wrote.
