Chapter 2 - Someday
"She can't stay here."
Five pairs of eyes turned instinctively in the direction of the sofa. A small slim frame was sleeping quietly in its corner and every time she breathed a strand of hair blew softly away from her face.
Quatre smiled. She looked so peaceful and innocent. If he did not know any better, he would have thought that the girl knew nothing of the war, had done nothing as he had done to others and had had nothing done to her as others had done to him. Nothing about her showed any sign of enduring the hardship and trials that he knew she had endured. He sighed. It was hard to imagine anyone having the urge to hurt her, she was so untouchable, fragile, like crystal.
But he had long learnt that what someone looked like didn't count. Appearances often didn't prove anything but the girl also omitted a strange aura that was as alarming as it was attractive. Shields automatically reinforced themselves around her when he tried to read her and he felt the need to know more about the girl who had arrived mysteriously on their doorstep. There was something about her he did not understand, and it fascinated him. He breathed out softly. It was almost impossible that anything so beautiful could have survived the war.
But no; he shook himself. As Wufei would say, curiosity killed the cat.
As he thought this, he turned slightly to look at Wufei who was also watching the girl intently. His gaze was soft, warm and open. But he must have felt Quatre, for he blinked, turned towards him, and when his eyes were open again, they were void of any emotion.
His obsidian eyes were empty yet filled with malice and a sense of challenging. Quatre dropped his gaze at once but thoughts were racing furiously through his head. There was something in those eyes, a look that he had long forgotten, almost a dare. He had seen those eyes only once before and never again. Admiringly, he had paid an absolutely striking dancer in the streets and a tall but slight man had appeared in front of him, glaring with those eyes. Those eyes... The eyes of a wolf.
He shuddered and did not risk uttering a sound again. Instead he blocked out everything and focused entirely on the conversation they were having. For Wufei's warning had been simple but very clear. And he heeded it.
Then, almost as if she had heard them, the girl stirred lightly and opened her eyes. She sat up and blinked before smiling warily at them.
Duo stepped forward quickly before things got ugly and grinned charmingly at her.
"Hey good-lookin'! I'm Duo Maxwell, at your service. This is Heero; Trowa; Quatre, and Wufei." He gestured to each of them as he said their name.
She looked up when she heard the last one and started slightly when she met Wufei's calm gaze. She was guarded at once. The familiarity was astounding and nearly overwhelmed her senses but something was missing and she could not place what it was. She knew him, but somewhere along the track, she had forgotten.
The atmosphere changed at once. A dark foreboding had entered the room and settled in comfortably. Heero immediately switched into his soldier's mode and was prepared to reach for his gun if anything happened.
But Wufei did not notice or if he did he ignored it for he moved forward so he and the girl's noses almost touched. He studied her for a moment and then he smirked and drew back.
She was still the same. After everything she was still the same old Meiran. But why didn't she recognise him?
He turned and strode towards the door. The tension had shifted and he could feel the faint surprise in the air. He stopped and spoke before swiftly leaving the room.
"She's not going anywhere."
The girl watched furiously as he exited and scowled to herself.
Someday I'll find out why my heart beats faster every time he gets near me.
She stared out the window where the first drops of rain had begun to fall.
Someday I'll find out why I'm in love with you, Chang Wufei.
