Hi! I'm back! I'm so sorry for the long wait on this story. I've been
updating my other stories and just didn't get around to updating this
story. Part of the reason is that my other stories. A New Chance and
Silent Love (both Gundam Wing/Sailor Moon crossovers) have been getting
more reviews than this one, but I still plan on finishing this story. It's
my favorite and first story. So for those of you that have been patient
with me on updating this story Thank You.
Duo walks in and grumbles: Do you realize that Hotaru and me still haven't hooked up
yet.
BubblyOne: Yes and what of it.
Duo: I want the girl! Do you know how hot she is? Especially in that short skirt!
Hotaru: No how hot?
Duo: Oh hey there Hotaru. How's it going?
Hotaru materializes her Glaive: You may be cute, Duo but I think I'd better correct that
perverted mind of yours. So come here.
Duo gulps and takes off running: I didn't mean anything by it! Honest!
BubblyOne smiles at the two: Ahh. Look at the lovebirds. I'm glad that I set them up
Together.
A figure walks up behind BubblyOne and hears her comment: So it was you!
BubblyOne whirls around in shock and gulps: H-Haruka! S-So nice to see you.
Haruka takes out her space sword blaster and points it at BubblyOne: So it was you who
paired up my little Firefly with that eechi! Prepare to die!
BubblyOne screams in fear and runs away: No don't kill me Ruka-chan! It wasn't me it
was the voters! Kill them not me! Please Ruka-chan don't kill me!
Trowa appears before everyone and shakes his head at the antics about him: Seeing how
BubblyOne is occupied at the moment please carry on to the story.
**************************************************************
Relena walked out of her room in deep thought. **How am I going to handle this new organization? I don't want to fight them. I hope this can be resolved peacefully, but I fear that there will be a war.** Sighing she stopped and knocked on a door.
When the door open, Relena smiled at the person there. "Hello, Duo. I'm here to check up on Anita. How is she doing?"
Duo frowned a little not knowing how to really answer. Relena noticed this and wondered what could have happened. "Duo what's wrong?" she asked worried.
"Come in. Maybe you can do something about this mess." Duo said motioning her in.
"What happened?" Relena asked
"Wu-man is what happened." Duo answered. "The idiot." he added balling up his fist.
Walking over to Anita's room Duo handed Relena a tray of food. "Maybe you can get her to eat. Ever since Wufei talked to her this morning she has refused to eat anything all day. Trowa and Quatre just tried with no luck. Could you stay a little longer? Me and the guys are going to go have a little talk with him."
Taking the tray of food she nodded her head. "Sure. Just don't hurt him to much." Relena said smiling and then winked at Duo before going into the room.
Duo looked surprised then had a silly grin on his face. **I like this Relena.** he thought and walked out of the room looking for his idiotic friend.
Relena walked into the room and placed the tray on Anita's nightstand. "You want to talk about it?"
"I don't understand, Lena-chan. I don't. Last night he seemed like he cared for me. But today it just seems like that kiss meant nothing to him! I don't understand. I know what he does, and I'm fine with it. So why Lena?" Anita asked confused. "Why did he push me away?" she whispered.
Relena looked at Anita with understanding. She wanted to be with Heero, but he wanted nothing to do with her. Yet with Wufei you could tell that he wanted to be with her, but he fears what may happen. Taking Anita's hand into hers she smiled an understanding smile.
"Give him time, Anita. I think he fears that the enemy will use you against him and that he will lose you if he has a relationship with you." Relena said then smiled as a thought came to her. "You know you could make this hard on him."
"What are you getting at?" Anita asked not liking that smile Relena had on her face.
"Well ignore him like he does to you. Don't let him see how this affects you. Have him come to you to patch things up." Relena answered
"But isn't that cold?"
"Yes a little, but if he wants to act like an idiot then let him."
"I don't know, Lena?" Anita began
"When ever you want a shoulder to cry on, I'm here." Relena said.
"Let me think about it." Anita told Relena
"Alright, but don't forget to eat."
"I'm not hungry right now." Anita said
Sighing Relena took the tray and headed out.
********************
Wufei glared at Duo. He was the last one to give him a talk on his actions. **They need to stay out of this.** he thought
"What were you thinking!" Duo shouted
"It is none of your concern." Wufei said.
"It is my business! She's my friend and what you did affects all of us." Duo said.
"Do you realize she won't eat! She doesn't care what you are. She accepts you for what you are." Duo continued
Wufei felt a pang of guilt and worry at the information Duo told him and covered it up quickly. "She's just an onna. I don't need or want her." He lied.
Duo was seeing red and was about to punch Wufei when someone else beat him to it. Duo stared in shock at what he saw. There before him standing over Wufei was Relena!
"You are a fool! You can lie to yourself all you want, but don't you dare lie to her or us! You speak of justice and honor, yet you possess none of those qualities! You're a stubborn mule! I don't know why she still loves such an idiot as you, but she does! I won't let you to continue to hurt her! Until you come to your senses stay away from her." Relena hissed and stormed off.
Wufei looked stunned at Relena's retreating figure and could only touch where she had hit him. Duo came out of his shock and ran after Relena. There was nothing else he could do. Relena already hit him so there wasn't a point to hit him now. Catching up to Relena he saw her shake her hand and say, "Oww that hurt. Thick headed fool."
Snickering Duo said, "You mean thick jaw don't you. Here let me see your hand." Before she could protest he held her hand and began examining it. "You'll probably have a sore hand for awhile. That was one good punch for someone who's suppose to be against violence."
Relena bowed her head in shame realizing what she had just done. "I'm a hypocrite."
"No, you just lost your temper. It happens. You're human and everyone makes mistakes. We'll just keep this between us." Duo said seriously.
Relena gave Duo a small smile. "Who would have thought you would be serious?" she teased.
"Who would think that you have on hell of a right hook." Duo said back.
"Well let's go. I'm moving Anita in with me. I was serious about Wufei staying away from her."
"Are you sure that's a good idea?"
"I don't know, but I think it'll help."
"How are you going to convince Anita?"
"I'm going to tell her what Wufei said. She'll hopefully be so mad that she'll agree." Relene answered
"Or she'll be so hurt that she'll recede into herself." Duo said
"I know but it's a chance we'll have to take. Wufei will have to be the one to come to her."
"Fine, but I hope this helps."
"Me too, Dou, me too."
********************************
Heero watched as Duo grabbed Relena's hand gently and expected it. He wanted to go and hurt the braided boy, but knew there was no good reason to. **Why am I so angry?** He stepped closer to hear their conversation making sure he wasn't seen. He couldn't understand why he was so upset. As he heard the conversation he let out a mental sigh. He was confused. Why should he care about what those two were saying? Though what they were saying was true. He agreed with the others about Anita and Wufei. The enemy knows she hangs around them so it doesn't matter that she goes with Wufei. She's endanger now by just knowing them. She was affecting the mission now, whether or not she was with Wufei. He gave Wufei his opinion and that was it. It was up to him to make the right decision. Shaking his head he continued to follow them.
**********************************
Anita wanted to cry, but she held it in as Relena told her what had happened. **Does he really think that? But then why did he kiss me? I don't know how long I can take this.**
"So you're moving in with me." Relena finished and awaited Anita's reaction.
Anita looked at Relena with hurt and confusion in her amber eyes, but then they were quickly replaced with anger. Her eyes seemed to glow a bright golden making Relena and Duo nervous. They'd never seen her eyes look so dangerous and fearful.
**I'm the last of my clan. I will not let him have this effect on me. If he wishes to have nothing to do with me then so be it.** Anita thought. "Fine. Let's move as soon as possible."
Reika looked at her mistress and purred with concern. She had seen her mistress like this once before and she didn't want her to go thru that again.
Duo and Relena looked at each other in concern. Anita saw this and calmed down. "Don't worry about me. If he wants to play that way so be it. I won't close you guys out, just him."
"All right. Well then let's get you moved out." Relena said.
**********************
Two weeks later
******************
Anita and Relena sat waiting for the Doctor to give them the verdict.
"Hmm. Well they are healed quite nicely. You can walk around now, but mind you no more climbing rose bush trills without shoes." He said smiling.
Anita smiled at the doctors' humor. "Believe me I don't plan on it anytime soon."
"If they start to hurt then sit down for a while. The skin may still be a little tender, but you are all better for school tomorrow."
"Wonderful." Anita said frowning causing Relena to giggle.
"Thank you, Doctor Mizu." Relena said
"You're quite welcome Miss. Peacecraft. If you will excuse me I have to get back."
"Of course and thank you for all your help. Good-bye Doctor."
"Good-bye, Miss Peacecraft." The Doctor said and left.
As soon as the Doctor left Anita jumped out of bed and wobbled a bit. "Damn. I hate being bed ridden for so long. After a few minutes she regained her balance and slowly began walking to the living room. She opened the door and her eyes met dark obsidian eyes. Narrowing her eyes she slammed the door in his face and locked it. Walking over to the window she opened and grabbed some sheets and quickly tied them together. Throwing one end out of the window and tying the other. While ignoring Wufei's shouts to open up. Once done doing that she grabbed a book and walked into the bathroom locking it.
Wufei pounded on the door shouting for her to let him. He needed to apologize for his dumb actions. When he had arrived back to his room two weeks ago and found her gone something in him just seemed to die. After three days he realized he had made a mistake. What every one had told him was true. When he told her about being a pilot she had accepted that. He fought her himself and knew she was quite capable of defending herself. She proved that with the assassin by living thru it and capturing the assassin as well. Ever since then he has tried to talk to her to apologize. At first Relena wouldn't even let him in to do so. But she eventually did about a week ago. When he saw Anita she would completely ignore him. No hello, nothing. It was as if he didn't even exist. He would have been angry, but knew she had every right to ignore him. After all it was his fault.
Realizing she wasn't going to open the door he picked the lock. Walking in he didn't see her. He noticed the window open and a sheet thrown down like a rope. Growling he looked out and didn't see her. He was about to leave when a thought came to him. Walking back he noticed that the sheet wasn't tight enough for a person to climb down on. Smirking he walked over to the door and slammed it as if he had left. He then quietly walked over and hid in the closet.
Anita waited for a few minutes before unlocking the bathroom door. Stepping out she walked over to Reika and began to cry. It was tearing her up inside. She really liked Wufei. They just felt so right together, but she couldn't forget what he had said and done to her.
"Oh Reika, why? Why did he push me away in the first place? I can protect myself. So what if I'm endangered, just-just knowing them endangers me. I bet he just wants to say sorry so he doesn't feel guilty. Am I destined to be alone forever?" she whispered the last part.
Wufei heard all of it and his heart ached. He hadn't realized how much he truly had hurt her. Walking out of the closet he moved quietly to Anita and wrapped his arms around her. He heard her gasp in surprise and tightened his hold when she tried to struggle out of his arms.
"Angning, you will listen to me. I'm sorry. I've been a fool. Everything I told you two weeks ago was a lie. I just didn't want to lose you. I was afraid. I care for you so much, onna that it frightens me." Wufei confessed.
"Do you mean this Wufei? You're just not saying this to make yourself feel better are you? I can't take this anymore Wufei. I need to know. I can't take this pain in my chest anymore." She asked her head bowed the tears still running down her cheeks.
Wufei turned Anita around and lifted her head up. He saw the pain, hope, and longing in her eyes. Her cheeks were stained with the tears she had been crying. Cupping her face in his hands he wiped the tears from her cheeks. "I mean this, Angning. I've been a fool and ask you for forgiveness. Will you forgive my foolishness and the pain I have caused you?" he asked
Anita searched his eyes. She the same feelings reflecting in his eyes that she felt. Closing her eyes she searched him for any falseness and found none. Choking on a sob she nodded her head and said, "Hai, I forgive you, Fei-chan."
Hearing her forgive him the pain that was in his heart ever since Anita had left was now replaced by happiness. Pulling her towards him into a tighter embrace he kissed her with all the happiness and passion he felt inside. Anita wrapped her arms around him and returned the kiss. The loneliness in her heart was gone too as well as the hurt. Though she was still upset with him for what he did she didn't care at the moment. She just allowed herself to be lost in his kiss.
Reika looked at her mistress and purred with approval. She liked this human. He wasn't like the other one. This one was better. Hearing the door open she looked to see the other female and the bouncy male there surprised.
"Anita? Duo and me wanted to know if…." Relena began asking as she opened the door with Duo beside her only to stop and gasp in surprise with Duo. Before them sat Anita and Wufei in a passionate kiss. Relena and Duo looked at each other and quickly closed the door. Looking at each other they walked in a daze into the living room.
"Did you just see what I saw?" Relena asked Duo
Duo nodded his head yes. "Looks like they made up."
"I don't know whether to be happy for her or upset. Happy that they're back together or upset at her for forgiving him so quickly." Relena said.
"Same here." Duo said. "But I'd rather be happy for them."
"Hey me too. Let's go tell the others. Anita is probably going to move back in with you guys." Relena said heading for the door.
Finding the guys they told them about Anita and Wufei. Heero nodded his head and went back to his labtop though he would glare at Duo every now and then, which wasn't missed by Duo or Trowa. Quatre sighed with relief and smiled. Trowa nodded his head and went into deep thought.
"It's about time." Quatre said. "I don't know how much longer I could take the pain they both were giving radiating."
"I'm just glad that Anita won't be so cold towards him now. That just creeped me out. That was worse than one of Heero's glares." Duo said shuddering.
Relena nodded in agreement. "Well I'm going I'll see you all in class tomorrow. Ja ne."
"Ja ne, Relena." Quatre and Duo said.
"Let's go say hello to Anita, Quatre." Trowa said coming out of his thoughts and walked out the door. Quatre gave Trowa a confused look but followed knowing Trowa had a reason for asking him. "See you tomorrow Duo." Quatre said and left.
Duo nodded his head and then looked at Heero. "All right man. What's up with you giving me these glares? You've been glaring at me more than usual lately." Duo said.
"I have no idea what you are talking about, Duo." Heero said as he typed.
"Don't give me that. Tell me what your problem is." Duo demanded.
"Nothing." Heero growled showing some emotion.
"It's Relena isn't it." Duo said as he thought the past two weeks over. "Your jealous!"
"I'm not jealous!" Heero shouted at Duo. "I could careless if something is going on between the two of you." He replied with a hint of venom.
"Well there isn't anything going on. We're just friends and stop lying to yourself. If you like her then go for her. Look at Wu-man. The woman hater himself has fallen in love. If he can do it then so can you." Duo said and walked out of the room.
Heero glared at the door and cursed. He was confused and didn't like it. Something deep down inside him seemed to tell him that everything that Duo said was true, but he didn't want to admit it. Growling in frustration Heero got up and left the room.
**************
After the kiss Anita rested her head on Wufei's chest and sighed with contentment. "What made you change your mind about what you said?" she asked curious.
"Five very caring friends pointing out my mistake." Wufei answered
"Ehh?" Anita asked confused then realization dawned on her. "Oh. So how's your jaw?"
"Fine." Wufei grumbled. Laughing at his response Anita stood up.
"Well I'm hungry and I think I heard Relena." Anita said and started to head for the door. Wufei stopped her before she reached the door and pulled her back to him.
"Wufei what…?" she began but hushed as he embraced her again.
"I'm truly sorry." He said.
"I know, Fei-chan. I know. I'm still upset with you, but I think I understand your reasoning." She answered, "Come on lets get something to eat." She added changing the subject. Wufei released her and nodded his head.
Opening the door they were greeted with Quatre and Trowa standing there. Smiling Quatre grabbed Anita's hand and dragged her out of the room. "Now that you're able to walk I want to treat you to dinner."
Anita started to protest until she saw the look Trowa was giving her. Sighing in defeat she let Quatre drag her away.
Wufei looked at the two leave with an eyebrow raised. Turning to Trowa he waited for the normally quite man to speak. Trowa looked at Wufei and crossed his arms.
"You do realize that you are lucky she is so forgiving. That was a stupid stunt that you pulled."
"I know Barton. But I didn't want to see her hurt or used. I was afraid." Wufei answered knowing this conversation would never go beyond them.
"Yet you ended up hurting her in the long run." Trowa commented.
"I realize this and I will make it up to her as best as I can."
"I know you will, Wufei." Trowa said and walked over to the window across the room. "Millardo will be coming tomorrow to interrogate the prisoner with Noin. So far she hasn't said anything." Trowa said
"Hmm. Well hopefully tomorrow she will be more willing to answer our questions." Wufei said.
"Maybe." Trowa said and then left the room.
Wufei stood there for a few minutes in thought and then left the room as well.
*********************
Later that evening
*********************
Anita stared up at the moon and sighed. "Something is going to happen soon, Reika. What ever is building up isn't good. Tomorrow after classes I'm going to have to talk to the guys to figure out what is exactly going on. I just hope they'll tell me." Walking away from the window she crawled into bed. "Good night Reika." She said before falling asleep.
*********************************
Sorry for the wait. I hope you liked it. Things are still a little slow but they will be picking up in the next chapter. That is a promise.
I think Wufei may have been a little bit out of character. I'm sorry about that, but it just fit the scene I had playing in my mind and Love changes people sometimes so I figured it'd change him a little. Not much but enough to have him apologize in private. I still don't think that he would apologize in public so thus the private apology.
Please Review.
BubblyOne
Duo walks in and grumbles: Do you realize that Hotaru and me still haven't hooked up
yet.
BubblyOne: Yes and what of it.
Duo: I want the girl! Do you know how hot she is? Especially in that short skirt!
Hotaru: No how hot?
Duo: Oh hey there Hotaru. How's it going?
Hotaru materializes her Glaive: You may be cute, Duo but I think I'd better correct that
perverted mind of yours. So come here.
Duo gulps and takes off running: I didn't mean anything by it! Honest!
BubblyOne smiles at the two: Ahh. Look at the lovebirds. I'm glad that I set them up
Together.
A figure walks up behind BubblyOne and hears her comment: So it was you!
BubblyOne whirls around in shock and gulps: H-Haruka! S-So nice to see you.
Haruka takes out her space sword blaster and points it at BubblyOne: So it was you who
paired up my little Firefly with that eechi! Prepare to die!
BubblyOne screams in fear and runs away: No don't kill me Ruka-chan! It wasn't me it
was the voters! Kill them not me! Please Ruka-chan don't kill me!
Trowa appears before everyone and shakes his head at the antics about him: Seeing how
BubblyOne is occupied at the moment please carry on to the story.

Relena walked out of her room in deep thought. **How am I going to handle this new organization? I don't want to fight them. I hope this can be resolved peacefully, but I fear that there will be a war.** Sighing she stopped and knocked on a door.
When the door open, Relena smiled at the person there. "Hello, Duo. I'm here to check up on Anita. How is she doing?"
Duo frowned a little not knowing how to really answer. Relena noticed this and wondered what could have happened. "Duo what's wrong?" she asked worried.
"Come in. Maybe you can do something about this mess." Duo said motioning her in.
"What happened?" Relena asked
"Wu-man is what happened." Duo answered. "The idiot." he added balling up his fist.
Walking over to Anita's room Duo handed Relena a tray of food. "Maybe you can get her to eat. Ever since Wufei talked to her this morning she has refused to eat anything all day. Trowa and Quatre just tried with no luck. Could you stay a little longer? Me and the guys are going to go have a little talk with him."
Taking the tray of food she nodded her head. "Sure. Just don't hurt him to much." Relena said smiling and then winked at Duo before going into the room.

"Give him time, Anita. I think he fears that the enemy will use you against him and that he will lose you if he has a relationship with you." Relena said then smiled as a thought came to her. "You know you could make this hard on him."
"What are you getting at?" Anita asked not liking that smile Relena had on her face.
"Well ignore him like he does to you. Don't let him see how this affects you. Have him come to you to patch things up." Relena answered
"But isn't that cold?"
"Yes a little, but if he wants to act like an idiot then let him."
"I don't know, Lena?" Anita began
"When ever you want a shoulder to cry on, I'm here." Relena said.
"Let me think about it." Anita told Relena
"Alright, but don't forget to eat."
"I'm not hungry right now." Anita said
Sighing Relena took the tray and headed out.
********************
Wufei glared at Duo. He was the last one to give him a talk on his actions. **They need to stay out of this.** he thought
"What were you thinking!" Duo shouted
"It is none of your concern." Wufei said.
"It is my business! She's my friend and what you did affects all of us." Duo said.
"Do you realize she won't eat! She doesn't care what you are. She accepts you for what you are." Duo continued
Wufei felt a pang of guilt and worry at the information Duo told him and covered it up quickly. "She's just an onna. I don't need or want her." He lied.

"No, you just lost your temper. It happens. You're human and everyone makes mistakes. We'll just keep this between us." Duo said seriously.
Relena gave Duo a small smile. "Who would have thought you would be serious?" she teased.
"Who would think that you have on hell of a right hook." Duo said back.
"Well let's go. I'm moving Anita in with me. I was serious about Wufei staying away from her."
"Are you sure that's a good idea?"
"I don't know, but I think it'll help."
"How are you going to convince Anita?"
"I'm going to tell her what Wufei said. She'll hopefully be so mad that she'll agree." Relene answered
"Or she'll be so hurt that she'll recede into herself." Duo said
"I know but it's a chance we'll have to take. Wufei will have to be the one to come to her."
"Fine, but I hope this helps."
"Me too, Dou, me too."

"All right. Well then let's get you moved out." Relena said.

Two weeks later

Realizing she wasn't going to open the door he picked the lock. Walking in he didn't see her. He noticed the window open and a sheet thrown down like a rope. Growling he looked out and didn't see her. He was about to leave when a thought came to him. Walking back he noticed that the sheet wasn't tight enough for a person to climb down on. Smirking he walked over to the door and slammed it as if he had left. He then quietly walked over and hid in the closet.
Anita waited for a few minutes before unlocking the bathroom door. Stepping out she walked over to Reika and began to cry. It was tearing her up inside. She really liked Wufei. They just felt so right together, but she couldn't forget what he had said and done to her.
"Oh Reika, why? Why did he push me away in the first place? I can protect myself. So what if I'm endangered, just-just knowing them endangers me. I bet he just wants to say sorry so he doesn't feel guilty. Am I destined to be alone forever?" she whispered the last part.
Wufei heard all of it and his heart ached. He hadn't realized how much he truly had hurt her. Walking out of the closet he moved quietly to Anita and wrapped his arms around her. He heard her gasp in surprise and tightened his hold when she tried to struggle out of his arms.
"Angning, you will listen to me. I'm sorry. I've been a fool. Everything I told you two weeks ago was a lie. I just didn't want to lose you. I was afraid. I care for you so much, onna that it frightens me." Wufei confessed.
"Do you mean this Wufei? You're just not saying this to make yourself feel better are you? I can't take this anymore Wufei. I need to know. I can't take this pain in my chest anymore." She asked her head bowed the tears still running down her cheeks.
Wufei turned Anita around and lifted her head up. He saw the pain, hope, and longing in her eyes. Her cheeks were stained with the tears she had been crying. Cupping her face in his hands he wiped the tears from her cheeks. "I mean this, Angning. I've been a fool and ask you for forgiveness. Will you forgive my foolishness and the pain I have caused you?" he asked
Anita searched his eyes. She the same feelings reflecting in his eyes that she felt. Closing her eyes she searched him for any falseness and found none. Choking on a sob she nodded her head and said, "Hai, I forgive you, Fei-chan."
Hearing her forgive him the pain that was in his heart ever since Anita had left was now replaced by happiness. Pulling her towards him into a tighter embrace he kissed her with all the happiness and passion he felt inside. Anita wrapped her arms around him and returned the kiss. The loneliness in her heart was gone too as well as the hurt. Though she was still upset with him for what he did she didn't care at the moment. She just allowed herself to be lost in his kiss.
Reika looked at her mistress and purred with approval. She liked this human. He wasn't like the other one. This one was better. Hearing the door open she looked to see the other female and the bouncy male there surprised.
"Anita? Duo and me wanted to know if…." Relena began asking as she opened the door with Duo beside her only to stop and gasp in surprise with Duo. Before them sat Anita and Wufei in a passionate kiss. Relena and Duo looked at each other and quickly closed the door. Looking at each other they walked in a daze into the living room.
"Did you just see what I saw?" Relena asked Duo
Duo nodded his head yes. "Looks like they made up."
"I don't know whether to be happy for her or upset. Happy that they're back together or upset at her for forgiving him so quickly." Relena said.
"Same here." Duo said. "But I'd rather be happy for them."
"Hey me too. Let's go tell the others. Anita is probably going to move back in with you guys." Relena said heading for the door.
Finding the guys they told them about Anita and Wufei. Heero nodded his head and went back to his labtop though he would glare at Duo every now and then, which wasn't missed by Duo or Trowa. Quatre sighed with relief and smiled. Trowa nodded his head and went into deep thought.
"It's about time." Quatre said. "I don't know how much longer I could take the pain they both were giving radiating."
"I'm just glad that Anita won't be so cold towards him now. That just creeped me out. That was worse than one of Heero's glares." Duo said shuddering.
Relena nodded in agreement. "Well I'm going I'll see you all in class tomorrow. Ja ne."
"Ja ne, Relena." Quatre and Duo said.
"Let's go say hello to Anita, Quatre." Trowa said coming out of his thoughts and walked out the door. Quatre gave Trowa a confused look but followed knowing Trowa had a reason for asking him. "See you tomorrow Duo." Quatre said and left.
Duo nodded his head and then looked at Heero. "All right man. What's up with you giving me these glares? You've been glaring at me more than usual lately." Duo said.
"I have no idea what you are talking about, Duo." Heero said as he typed.
"Don't give me that. Tell me what your problem is." Duo demanded.
"Nothing." Heero growled showing some emotion.
"It's Relena isn't it." Duo said as he thought the past two weeks over. "Your jealous!"
"I'm not jealous!" Heero shouted at Duo. "I could careless if something is going on between the two of you." He replied with a hint of venom.
"Well there isn't anything going on. We're just friends and stop lying to yourself. If you like her then go for her. Look at Wu-man. The woman hater himself has fallen in love. If he can do it then so can you." Duo said and walked out of the room.
Heero glared at the door and cursed. He was confused and didn't like it. Something deep down inside him seemed to tell him that everything that Duo said was true, but he didn't want to admit it. Growling in frustration Heero got up and left the room.
**************
After the kiss Anita rested her head on Wufei's chest and sighed with contentment. "What made you change your mind about what you said?" she asked curious.
"Five very caring friends pointing out my mistake." Wufei answered
"Ehh?" Anita asked confused then realization dawned on her. "Oh. So how's your jaw?"
"Fine." Wufei grumbled. Laughing at his response Anita stood up.
"Well I'm hungry and I think I heard Relena." Anita said and started to head for the door. Wufei stopped her before she reached the door and pulled her back to him.
"Wufei what…?" she began but hushed as he embraced her again.
"I'm truly sorry." He said.
"I know, Fei-chan. I know. I'm still upset with you, but I think I understand your reasoning." She answered, "Come on lets get something to eat." She added changing the subject. Wufei released her and nodded his head.
Opening the door they were greeted with Quatre and Trowa standing there. Smiling Quatre grabbed Anita's hand and dragged her out of the room. "Now that you're able to walk I want to treat you to dinner."
Anita started to protest until she saw the look Trowa was giving her. Sighing in defeat she let Quatre drag her away.
Wufei looked at the two leave with an eyebrow raised. Turning to Trowa he waited for the normally quite man to speak. Trowa looked at Wufei and crossed his arms.
"You do realize that you are lucky she is so forgiving. That was a stupid stunt that you pulled."
"I know Barton. But I didn't want to see her hurt or used. I was afraid." Wufei answered knowing this conversation would never go beyond them.
"Yet you ended up hurting her in the long run." Trowa commented.
"I realize this and I will make it up to her as best as I can."
"I know you will, Wufei." Trowa said and walked over to the window across the room. "Millardo will be coming tomorrow to interrogate the prisoner with Noin. So far she hasn't said anything." Trowa said
"Hmm. Well hopefully tomorrow she will be more willing to answer our questions." Wufei said.
"Maybe." Trowa said and then left the room.
Wufei stood there for a few minutes in thought and then left the room as well.
*********************
Later that evening
*********************
Anita stared up at the moon and sighed. "Something is going to happen soon, Reika. What ever is building up isn't good. Tomorrow after classes I'm going to have to talk to the guys to figure out what is exactly going on. I just hope they'll tell me." Walking away from the window she crawled into bed. "Good night Reika." She said before falling asleep.
*********************************
Sorry for the wait. I hope you liked it. Things are still a little slow but they will be picking up in the next chapter. That is a promise.
I think Wufei may have been a little bit out of character. I'm sorry about that, but it just fit the scene I had playing in my mind and Love changes people sometimes so I figured it'd change him a little. Not much but enough to have him apologize in private. I still don't think that he would apologize in public so thus the private apology.
Please Review.
