"Relena." Duo sighed. "I guess so.. Now come on Relena he's fine now.."

"Duo what have I done? I drove him to suicide." She slumped to her knees and cried.

"No relena. You did no such thing. we all had a part to play in this, but we got to him in time. Heero is being discharged as soon as tomorrow and we'll get him back to his good old self.. With out the 'perfect solider' thing."

"You're right. This time I'm not leaving him- no matter what."

"Ok- let's get him some cloths then Do you want to check out the closet? And I'll get his other stuff in the drawers."

Soon the two had a duffel bag full of Heero's personal stuff. They had straightened the room up for the most part and then returned to the hospital to find Trowa and Quatre outside the room.

"Hey guys." Duo said. "What's up?"

"The drs said heero woke up an hour ago." Trowa informed them.

"What? Can we see him?" Relena asked.

"No. they. they had to sedate him. I guess he woke up in a frenzy. They told us he was screaming out something about training and failure, I'm not really sure." Quatre said. "He must have thought that he was back in the perfect solider project. Poor guy."

The drs came out of the room shortly after.

"Can we see him? Is he ok?" Relena asked desperately.

"Yes ma'am. He's just fine. He'll be a bit groggy and he won't be able to move for a little while, but you'll be able to bring him home tomorrow."

"Can I see him?" She asked. The doctor nodded and Relena almost ran him down to get into the room.

There she found Heero looking out at the evening sky.

"Heero?" She called out, but got no response. She walked to the bed and sat down. Heero didn't move. She saw his eyes were open and he was blinking, but he didn't respond to her. She took his hand and squeezed it. This seemed to bring him out of his trance like state. He moved his head slowly and met Relena's worried eyes. He blinked and looked away.

"Heero. it's me.. Don't you know who I am?? Come on Heero. Please. say something." She pleaded.

"Why?" He whispered hoarsely as he closed his eyes.

"Why? Why what?"

"Why am I here? Why didn't you just let me go? Why was I used by so many? Why does it hurt inside? Why. why did I fall in love? Why?" He tried to yell but only began to cough as tears came out of his eyes. "Why am I always alone?"

Relena was silent. Tears were streaming down her face as well. He was in so much pain.

"Heero." Was all she could answer. She was so ashamed at herself. She gave everyone peace, except for the one she cared about most. He was still at War; mentally battling with himself.

"Heero you're not alone- please don't you want to live? You don't have to do anything you don't want to- no more being used- you're free remember?"

"You're wrong! I've always been alone! You left. I will always be alone."

"No, heero. I promise you'll never be alone again. Don't you see I.. I love you Heero. Please you cant give up and die like this. I love you heero and I'm sorry for not telling you sooner. You mean so much to everyone, to me." She cried kissing his hand pleading with him. But heero didn't respond. He was to tired and fell back to sleep.

The rest of the group came in slowly after waiting to let Relena and Heero talk alone.

"So how is he?" Trowa asked. The three came in to see a sobbing Relena.

"Hey don't be like that Relena. He'll get better." They comforted her.

The next day the guys moved Heero to Quatre's home. Relena had finally fell asleep. She was exhausted; mentally and physically. So while she slept the guys moved the two.

When she awoke she found herself in a lavish room. She stretched and got up from the soft bed. There was a large window to her right, and the sun was high in the sky. She went to the window and looked out of a beautiful vista. Directly below the small balcony was a pool. She heard voices and found Quatre, Trowa and even Wufei all relaxing in the sun poolside.

She sighed and exited the room.

As she walked the hallways she heard the loud and unmistakable voice of Duo coming from a room.

"Come on Heero you need to eat. Don't make me force feed you. come on.. Open up the hanger for the gundam." Duo laughed as he made rocket sounds playing with Heero's dinner trying to get him to open his mouth. "Fine- geesh heero- don't you want to get better?"

"Does it matter if I do or not?" Heero mumbled in his death voice as he sank back into bed. He was very tried, sore and very annoyed at the moment.

"OF COURSE IT MATTERS!" Relena said as she enetered the room suddenly. She stormed up to Heero and took his hand in her own.

"Heero you mean so much to all of us." She told him. As she did she tried to brush some of his hair from his eyes, but he turned his head and looked out the window.

"I'm sure you have more important things to do. so please leave me be. I'm sorry for causing you all trouble."

"I'll levae you two alone." Duo said as he backed away. Relena went and sat on hero's bed.

"Will you at least look at me? Look at me and tell me you really want me to leave."

Heero couldn't look at her. It was to much.

"Did.. You mean it? What you said yesterday?"

"Heero. Look at me." She said forcing him to look at her. "I'm sorry. I should have been there foe you like you where there for me. of course I meant it! I love you! And I want to always be by your side.. If you'll let me."

Heero sat up, forcing his mid to forget the pains. He embraced Relena tightly. She did the same to him.

"I love you Heero Yuy.. Please stay with me forever."

"Relena. I'm not some charity case you.."

"Heero. I can't make you live. If you really think you are as alone as you say then fine. I hope you are happy, because you're hurting a lot of people." Relena stood up. She was getting frustrated. She was out of ideas. She begged, pleased, and cried and he still didn't get it.

"Goodbye Heero." She said as she turned fro the door. She took a few steps and heard Heero call out to her.

"NO!" He pleaded. For the first time he sounded frightened and scared. "I'm sorry. please don't leave me again." He said as he staggered out of bed. He however fell to the floor not to far from the bed. Relena immediately turned back and rushed to his side.

"Oh heero. you need to rest." She said as she helped him to his bed.

"Don't go please. I'll do anything."

"Heero you don't have to do anything. I won't leave you ever. I promise."

With that she did something she never thought she would ever get to do. she pressed her lips to his in a passionate kiss. A kiss that broke down the painful walls and opened them both up to a future that was full of promise.

"Heero will you stay with me and. um.."

"Marry you?"

"Yes, will you?" She blushed.

"Mission accepted." He whispered into her ear.

The End
