Sparkle
Part 20: The Finality
Relena opened her eyes. The room was filled with smoke. She coughed and saw no one standing. Her eyes searched frantically. She heard another cough to her left. Duo stood up with Wufei. She half smiled.
" Where's Heero?" Relena asked. Duo looked around. He heard a cough and saw a hand raise. Heero lye on the ground. His leg was bleeding. He leaned against the wall. He looked sullenly at it. Relena smiled and walked over to him. She didn't see the silver flash in the smoke.
A single gunshot rang out in the night.
Relena's eyes opened again. Her side was aching. She heard Heero's voice calling to her. She searched for him and her vision cleared. She was staring straight up at the plain white ceiling. She touched the center of her pain and saw that blood was pouring from her side.
" Relena, hold on. Please hold on." A worried voice said. Relena slipped back out of consciousness.
* For all those times you stood by me
For all the truth that you made me see
For all the joy you brought to my life
For all the wrong that you made right
For every dream you made come true
For all the love I found in you
I'll be forever thankful, baby
You're the one who held me up
Never let me fall
You're the one who saw me through
Through it all*
Relena lye on the gurney as the doctors rushed her through the hallway. She heard voices, so many voices. Her eyes were watering. She wanted to get out of the hospital. She wanted to go to Heero.
* You were my strength when I as weak
You were my voice when I couldn't speak
You were my eyes when I couldn't see
You saw the best there was in me
Lifted me up when I couldn't reach
You gave me faith 'cause you believed.
I'm everything I am
Because you loved me*
Relena stared up at the bright light above her. Her breathing was ragged. She saw a nurse put a mask on her face. She breathed in the fumes and unconsciousness took over her fragile body again.
* You gave me wings and made me fly
You touched my hand I could touch the sky
I lost my faith, you gave it back to me
You said no star was out of reach
You stood by me and I stood tall
I had your love, I had it all
I'm grateful for each day you gave me
Maybe I don't know that much
But I know this much is true
I was blessed because I was
Loved by you*
Relena's head was spinning as a rush of pain fell over her. She was no longer under the unbelievably bright light. She was in a private room. Her body was still quite numb as the aforementioned pain subsided. She heard voices and felt someone touch her head. Unconsciousness swept her over once again.
* You were my strength when I was weak
You were my voice when I couldn't speak
You ere my eyes when I couldn't see
You saw the best there was in m
Lifted me up when I couldn't reach
You gave me faith 'cause you believed
I'm everything I am
Because you loved me*
Heero watched the love of his life sleep as she had been doing due to the morphine and novocaine. He wondered when she would awaken.
* You were always there for me
The tender wind that carried me
A light in the dark shining your love into my life
You've been my inspiration
Through the lies you were the truth
My world is a better place because of you
You were my strength when I was weak
You were my voice when I couldn't speak
You were my eyes when I couldn't see
You saw the best there was in me
Lifted me up when I couldn't reach
You gave me faith 'cause you believed
I'm everything I am...*
Relena awoke and looked around. She was still in the bed. Heero was watching her.
" Good morning." She said. Heero smirked.
" Good morning. Would you like to know what happened?"
" Later. C'mere." Relena said. Heero limped over to her. They kissed in the fierce way that it would probably be called violent.
" I haven't kissed you in way too long." Relena said.
* Because you loved me*
A year later, Relena was out of the hospital and living comfortably. She'd taken a break from the superstar life and become a lovely wife to the best bodyguard in the world, Heero Yuy. She was driving home when she had a thought that scared her.
" Heero, what ever happened to Dorothy's body?"
" It was found in the Potomac. At least, they think it was her body. It fit the DNA perfectly. Don't worry, Relena. You're safe." Heero said. Relena pondered this for a moment, then smiled. She kissed Heero.
" You're right. I am. I feel as if I can sparkle!!" Relena took off her scarf and let her hair blow in the wind. Heero smirked over at her.
AN: Well, that's it. 4 pages of love and happiness. That's Celine Dion's song for anyone who cares. But, thanks for the reviews and MERRY CHRISTMAS!!
