Mika was going to spend the night at Mariemaea's; she had to wait until Une finished for the day. Lady Une assured her it would only be a couple of minutes…It was only 7:30 pm so the 5 year old wasn't worried. Mika was in Heero's office, desperately hoping he walk through the door, even though he would not let her go to Mariemaea's cause it was "school night".
There was a soft knock on the door, as if someone was checking for something… the little girl knew it wasn't Une. Lady Une always opened doors with the aurora of authority, so one would know it was her. And it wasn't Heero either, he just opened the door in an annoyed fashion. Then who could it be? She mentally made a list of who it could possibly be but came empty handed.
Another knock this time louder. Mika held her breath; her mind franticly deciding what to do. Hide or stay. She sulked under the desk, hugging her legs while rocking back and forth. The third and final knock came.
The doorknob began to turn…

Heero awoke in a bright white room; his head throbbed so did his leg. He placed his hand on his head and felt a bandage; now that he thought about he could feel bandages wrapped tightly around his upper body. He was slow to react, senses numb.
"Oh God. Ow. Where am I?"
"Your in ICU going to a regular more peaceful room," replied a female nurse. She had long brown hair that was placed neatly in a pony tail, with bright intelligent green eyes. Heero nearly jumped of his skin.
"What?" he could hear words but they didn't make any sense.
The nurse giggled. "It's ok. You've suffered some head trauma. So your gonna be a little slow for a while." She found him quite attractive; his eyes though were his most stunning and beautiful feature.
"Head trauma?" he blinked, and struggled to get in a sitting position. Damn leg. "What's your name?"
"Mika Thornton."
The perfect soldier was stunned. Maybe he really was losing it. "Pardon?"
"Mika…"
"MIKA?!?!"
Mika looked at him strangely for she had no idea what the heck was wrong with her name, but nodded anyways.
"Oh, it's just that my daughter's name is Mika…"
The brown haired nurse felt her heart sink; she knew a guy like him would be taken, but it was still a shock. For weeks she had tended to him while he slipped in and out of consciousness. A part of her training was not getting attached, but how can someone NOT attached?
"Really, how old is she?" she tired to sound normal.
"Five," he smiled as if Mika was here with him. "She has the most beautiful smile. And did you know her best friend is a dolphin?" he turned sober. "She's just me…" pause. "…. A loner. She's gonna grow up a loner just like I did."
"Do you have friends now?"
"Few."
She followed her woman's intuition. "Are you in love? Married?"
"No, but there is Helena, oops. I mean Relena, who is madly in love with me."
"Why don't you love her?"
"I don't think I can love that way. I mean it was hard enough learning how to be patient and love with Mika. A part of me is probably more in love with her than she is with me. And the other hates her stupid annoying guts, is the one that shows. But the part that does keep getting bigger…. damn you Duo." (AN: the damn you part is an inside joke! Long story I'll explain lata!)
On her notepad, Mika wrote: Delirious. Slow to react, more severe head trauma than originally thought. Does not agree with cast and being here, for most part delirious.

Ok. For the "….damn you Duo…" part, my friend Megan is afraid of this one guy Josh. So when something bad happens to her she goes "damn you Josh" it's quite funny. Hahaha. She blames everything that goes wrong in her life on the skaters! Hahaha. And it's starting to rub off on me!
Heero is confused about his feelings for Relena, in case you haven't noticed. He IS annoyed by her, but she keeps chasing him and he's starting to like her…* prays" don't fall in love with Hel-ena don't fall in love with Hel-ena * I just thought I should clear that up.
Sorry it's taken SSO long for the chapters to come, my computer is So dumb!!!! But I think if I threaten it enough it should be a nice lil' computer…. If it knows what's good for it. Hehe
