Hi! I'm Buggy Babble! I'm in a sort of angsty mood but I'll try not to
make this story too sad. I promise this will turn out to be B/L. I hope
you will review and make me happy!
No One Likes To Be Lonely
~*~Leena's POV~*~
"Good morning, dad!" I said cheerfully smiling. Today is my birthday and I can't wait to see what Dad got me!
"Good morning, sweetie!" Dad replied before returning to play with his Zoid models. I stood there for a minute waiting for him to wish me a happy birthday or something but no. All I got was, "Is there something you want, sweetie?"
I stared incredulously before asking, "Is there something special about today?"
Dad took a quick glance at his calendar and shrugged. "Not that I know of. Why?"
I sighed and shook my head. "Just wanted to know. Sorry for bothering you." I couldn't believe it. My own father forgot my birthday. 'At least the day couldn't get worse,' I thought before smacking myself. Those were the famous last words. To say them, something definitely was going to get horrible!
I started to walk towards the kitchen when I heard laughter. But I could tell that it wasn't a nice type of laugh. It was as if whoever was laughing was making fun of someone.
I stood outside the door eavesdropping on the conversation.
"And then she started beating me up! I mean I was already tortured enough just seeing her naked!" I instantly recognized that voice as Bit's.
"God! She is full of herself! But you know what? I have never seen her show any interest in a guy! Do you think she is a lesbo (a/n I don't have anything against lesbians but I'm not gay myself and I don't particularly like stories with gay couples! I'm just making sure no one is offended)? I am pretty sure I saw her making passes on Naomi the other day!" That was Brad. I don't why I was still listening but I hadn't heard anything from Jamie. Maybe he would defend me.
Or maybe not.
"Who knows? I mean none of us know anything about her!" Way to go Jamie! "I mean she could be a murderer!" Now even Jamie was against me.
"By the way she hurts me, I'm sure she is!" Bit again. I held back my tears and left to return to my room.
By the time I got there, my eyes were puffy and my face tear- streaked. I slammed my door and got a suitcase out of my closet. I thought birthdays were supposed to be happy! I mean it was only morning and I already felt dejected and miserable. What a happy birthday!
I stuffed clothes into the suitcase and after that was done, I began to pack my personal items. I grabbed a few pictures off my dresser but when I was stuffing them down, one caught my eye. It was a picture of the whole family smiling at a bowling alley. It had been taken on my seventh birthday. My last happy birthday. About a week after this photo was taken, my mom was diagnosed with cancer and she died not too long after. Right now, I'm sort of wishing it was me that died not her. But after she was gone, my dad would buy me a small present and Leon would do his best to make me cheery. But it was just not the same without Mom.
I closed the latches on the pack and opened my door slowly. I sneaked out of my room and made my way to the hangar to get my gunsniper. If they didn't want me here, I would leave! Then they would be in high spirits and probably celebrate when they got it through their thick skulls I was gone.
I quickly wrote a note to all of them and placed the letters in the hangar before jumping into my Zoid. Time for a new beginning.
~*~Bit's POV~*~
I laughed with the guys. We were making fun of the trigger-happy pilot at the moment. I didn't really want to because I really like her actually but if either Brad or Jamie found out, they tease me endlessly!
I heard a slam of a door. 'Oh no! I hope Leena didn't hear us!' I thought frantically. A face of deep concern washed over my features.
"You all right?" Brad asked.
"Umm... Yeah!" I answered putting on my usual grinning look.
The boys went back into their conversation but I was so deep in thought of different things and I didn't really say anything.
"Hey! Anybody home?" I heard Leon call.
"Yeah! Here in the kitchen!" Leon came in smiling and for some odd reason, holding a few packages.
"What's the occasion?" Brad asked eyeing the gifts.
Leon looked at us bewildered and said, "Don't you know?"
"Know what?"
"Guys, today is Leena's birthday!" Leon told us and our eyes opened wide.
"It is?!?"
"Yeah! So where is Leena?"
"I think she is in her room," I answered.
"Okay, I'm going to go give these to her but you three need to figure out something for her. She hasn't really had any happy birthdays in awhile."
"Sure, Leon!" Leon gave us a stern look and then exited to go to Leena's living quarters.
"So what she would get her?"
"Maybe a gun or something?"
"Or a gift certificate to the mall?" We all started giving suggestions when we heard an angry scream.
"CLOUD!!!" Leon came rushing in and pinned me up to the wall. "Where is my sister? She is not in her room and her stuff is gone!"
"I don't know, Leon! I really don't know! I really thought she was in her room because I heard her slam the door and..." Leon dropped me and I fell hard on my bottom.
"I'll check the hangar but if I find out you did anything to my sister..." Leon warned. I smiled uneasily and nodded my head.
We followed him and instead of a gunsiper, there was a few letters sitting on the floor each one labeled to a different person.
I picked up the one addressed to me and began to read.
'Dear Bit,
I know I have been a bitch and I'm truly sorry. But I'm also very hurt by the things you said about me. I hope you didn't mean them but even so, I feel like nobody wants me around anymore. I mean my dad forgot my birthday today. The thought of suicide came up but I threw that away because I do want to live. Maybe someday we'll meet again in better circumstances but until then, goodbye.
-Leena'
The letter slipped out of my hand. She had heard. She had heard all those horrible things we said and on her birthday of all days! I started crying but I noticed I wasn't the only one. Jamie and Leon were sobbing, too. Brad kept his straight face on but in his eyes, if you looked far enough, you could see sadness.
~*~7 years later~*~
~*~Leena's POV~*~
It's my birthday again and I'm now 24. I can still remember this day from seven years ago but since it is not on of my fondest memories, I am really trying to forget it.
A lot has happened in the last seven years, though. I am now a mechanic at a repair shop called "Zoids City," and actually making a pretty good salary.
But I don't have my gunsniper anymore. I had to sell it so I could get a bigger apartment for Jocie and me.
Oh yeah! I have to tell you about Jocie. Jocie, or Jocelyn, is my three-year-old adoptive daughter. I adopted about three years ago when I was doing a charity run for the orphanage. When I was leaving a little baby caught my eye. She had a little tuft of light brown hair, pale skin, and of course, these big aquamarine eyes. That was Jocelyn.
She was only about two moths old then and I knew she would be a big responsibility but I just had to have her. And since then, she has been my ray of sunshine. I think my life is pretty happy now but I sort of miss Bit, Leon, and the others. Who knows? Maybe I'll meet them again soon...
To Be Continued...
Buggy: I really hoped you enjoyed the first chapter! @_@ Please leave me a review!
