AN: hey everyone!!! Another chapter is up!!
+ chapter 12: Call +
Relena pushed the door open and walked in, and made her way to her secretary: " Did anyone call?"
The secretary looked up and smiled: " Yes Miss Peacecraft."
Relena watched as her secretary Kathy picked up a booklet and read out loud what she had written on it.
" Mr. Dlubion called to tell you that the meeting for tonight was cancelled, and he has moved it for tomorrow morning at 9 o'clock. Mr. Crees called to inform you that the meeting that is held this evening, has changed location to this building in the main room." Kathy read.
Relena noticing that her secretary has finished her announcement looked at her: " Is there anyone else who called?"
Kathy looked over the papers: " No, those are the only calls I got for today,"
Relena nodded slowly and walked in her office. ' Still no word from him,' Relena thought. She looked up at the clock and it read 10 o'clock pm.
" Maybe he's already asleep, it's already night time there," Relena mused to herself. Nodding her head she gathered all the papers that had to be read over and signed, and got back to work.
' Maybe he'll call me tonight,' Relena thought.
*~*
" Have a good night Miss Relena, and thank you for coming," Mr. Crees told her.
Relena gave the old man a smile, " Good night to you to Mr. Crees,"
The old man gave her once more a wave goodbye, and Relena turned to walk over to the elevator. Glancing at her watch it read 10:30 o'clock pm.
" Hope Kathy is still there," Relena whispered as she stepped out of the elevator and walking towards her office.
Opening the door she was greeted by the sight of Kathy packing her things.
" Kathy did anyone call?" Relena asked as she walked over to the desk.
Kathy looked up at Relena: " No Miss Peacecraft,"
Seeing the disappointed look on the Vice Foreign Minister's face she asked: " What's the matter?"
Relena shook out of her daze and gave her secretary a smile. " Nothings wrong,"
" Your not good at lying," Kathy told her.
Relena gave a small smile: " Really, nothings wrong, I just thought Mr. Dlubion would have called to change the meeting at a later time."
Kathy looked at her for sometime, before nodding and giving her a smile. " Alright then Miss. Peacecraft. We'll I'll be off then."
Relena smiled, " Well have a goodnight,"
" Goodbye," Kathy said as she left Relena alone in the office. Relena picked the phone up and dialed a number. She looked at the clock, ' It should be lunch time there,'
After many rings Relena gave up hope and put the phone down. ' Maybe he's out to lunch,' Relena thought. After a thought struck her she picked the phone back up and dialed his cell phone number. ' Come on, don't tell me you don't have your cell with you,' Relena thought.
When no one answered Relena put the phone back down and looked outside the window. ' What is going on?' Relena thought.
" 5 days…" Relena said as she thought of how many days he hasn't called her. ' No six days,' Relena thought as she exited the office, for the day was done.
*~*
" Heero!" Serena squealed as the Prussian eyed boy pushed her in the pool. Heero just smiled and watched as Serena surfaced and give him a glare.
" Just you watch!" Serena warned him," I will get my revenge Heero! You will PAY!"
Heero smiled at her and gave her a ' Yeah Right' look. Seeing her glare at him again with a pout, Heero couldn't help but smile at the sight. ' Kawaii…' Heero thought as he sent her a smirk and turn around to sit on the lounge chair he had claimed.
" Serena quit staring and get moving!!" Rei exclaimed as she tugged on her friend's arms, who was still staring at Heero.
Heero stole a peek at Serena who was now blushing and made a face at the raven head.
" Stop doing that or your pretty face would stick that way!" Heero announced and watched with pleasure as Serena directed her glare at him. Blowing a raspberry at him too.
" I still haven't forgotten about my revenge Yuy!" Serena announced.
" Are you turning a Wufei on me?" Heero asked.
" Shut up!" Serena exclaimed before she swam away from him.
Everyone was staring at the exchange between Serena and Heero. Some had smiles on their faces, while others were unresponsive. Duo on the other hand was arguing with himself. Telling himself that they are just friends and nothing more, and that he shouldn't make such a big deal about this.
*~*
Relena woke up early in the morning. 4 o'clock am to be exact. She rubbed her eyes of sleep and picked up the phone on the nightstand. ' No messages.' Relena thought as she heard the dial tone.
Pressing a combination of numbers, she waited for the ringing to stop and for a voice of a certain someone to answer the phone.
" Come on, pick up…" Relena said as she leaned against the headboard of her bed.
*~*
Heero looked around the pool. He had not seen Serena anywhere and now was getting worried about the revenge she had promised him.
A ringing was heard and Heero looked for its source.
" Heero, your phone," a male voice said from behind him. Heero looked back and saw Quatre his cell phone in his raised hand.
" Thanks," Heero said as he took his phone away from Quatre and answered it. Quatre gave him a smile and a nod before running away from him to go after Mina.
" Hello?" Heero asked as he looked around him. Trying to look for a certain blonde.
" Heero?"
At the sound of the voice Heero froze… " Relena…"
*~*
Relena was angry when she heard his voice, but swallowed her anger and would give him a chance to explain. " Yeah Heero. It's Relena, I thought you forgot about me,"
" I'm-"
" Heero why haven't you called?" Relena interrupted him with her own question.
" I forgot…" Heero answered her.
" Forgot?" Relena echoed," You are incapable of forgetting Heero. Tell me what's up,"
" I've been busy," Heero said. His voice sounded far away, and the noises in the background made her wonder where he was.
" Heero where are you?" Relena asked.
Hearing the splashing of water in the background, a laugh and a growl Relena became more curios. Realizing the growl to come from Heero she worried.
" Hee-" Relana was cut off by a yell.
" Ha, ha!!! Get that Yuy!" Relena heard a female voice yell.
" Serena I'm gonna get you!!" Relena heard Heero growl with amusement.
" Relena… I'll call you back!" Heero said to her," I'm sorry again,"
Relena was about to protest, but at the sound of a dead tone, she stopped and growled in anger.
" No Heero! I'll call you!" Relena hissed as she slammed the phone back down on the receiver.
Relena sat on her bed, hugging a pillow with her head resting on it.
" What's happening, Heero?… Who's Serena, and how come she can… " Relena trailed off when she heard a knock on her door.
" Miss Relena? Are you alright?" came a male voice from beyond the closed doors.
" I'm alright," Relena piped up.
" Are you sure?" the man asked once more.
" Yes I am…" Relena said.
" Okay…"
Relena smiled at the man that she knew was standing outside the bedroom door protecting her. She laid back down on her bed and closed her eyes, waiting for sleep to come back to her again. For now forgetting about the call she had just made.
*~*
Heero watched as Serena yawned, her eyes half closed. " You should go to sleep."
Serena looked at him and opened her eyes wide. " No… I'm not tired… and I wanna watch this movie,"
Heero gave her a look.
" Really! Now watch the movie," Serena ordered as she turned to face the television. Heero did as he was told but pulled Serena towards him, and made her lay down, her head on his lap.
" Heero-" Serena said, face blushing, trying to sit up.
Heero held her down and looked at her. " Stay there and we could watch the movie."
Serena stared into his eyes a few moments before nodding her head. She twisted her body until she was completely lying on her left side. She brought up a hand on his thigh and made it into a pillow for her head.
Heero warmed at the touch, a pleasing tingle ran up his whole entire leg and he felt his stomach flutter. Looking down at the blonde he had on him, he couldn't help but feel himself go warm. Suddenly blue eyes, filled with everything, locked gazes with him.
" Heero?" Serena asked.
Heero shook out of his daze and drew a short strand of her hair behind her ear. " Go back watching the movie."
Serena being tired already didn't blush at the action but did as she was told. Giving a big yawn, she adjusted her position, and her hand. Not noticing Heero's form tense under her touch. Serena let her eyes droop, catching only a glimpse of Josh Hartnett who was now fighting with his friend Ben Affleck.
Heero leaned back and watched the movie, his head being propped up by his fisted hand. He unconsciously brought over his right hand, around Serena's waist, so she would not move herself off the couch.
Hearing a murmur and feeling the form beside him curl up, he looked down and noticed Serena was now asleep, pouty lips opened slightly. Heero just stared at Serena, enjoying the closeness, and relishing the image she had portrayed to him.
Feeling and witnessing Serena shiver and draw herself more into a ball, Heero carefully got out from under Serena and picked her up princess style. Taking one hand free, he stopped the movie, which had just ended and turned the television and VCR off.
Walking over to the bedroom they shared Heero placed Serena on her bed and tucked her under the covers. He smiled when Serena curled up once again and hug one of the many pillows she had.
Heero was about to get into his own bed and sleep when he heard the phone ring. Giving a sigh he walked out of the room and into the living room, picking up the navy blue phone.
" Hello?" Heero asked.
" Heero, we need to talk," came a female voice that used to make his heart skip a beat.
*~*
