Chapter 17 - Stormy Relationship Part 2
"You choked!!!!" Heero shouted at Kim. He had her pinned against her bedroom door by her shoulders.
"You could have been Killed! Baka! What do you think you were doing?! What were you trying to prove?!" he continued to yell.
Kim couldn't believe what was happening. Then she lost it.
" Listen! I know I don't have as much experience that you have and I may not be as good at war battling as you but GIVE ME A BREAK!!!!" she shouted.
"How can you be so heartless?! You need to get your priorities straight."
Heero began to feel sorry for his outburst and laid his hand on her shoulder. Kim pushed it away.
"Don't touch me! Leave me alone. I don't want to be around you right now." She said and ran into her room. Heero felt horrible and couldn't believe what he had said to her. Everyone could here them fight in the hall. They all cautiously walked out of their rooms.
"Man, that was a bit harsh." Duo said.
" He's right." Trowa and Wu-fei said in unison.
"I just lost it." Heero said.
"She'll be fine. She can't hold a grudge. Just leave her alone." Ashley said and the group went back to their rooms. Heero never moved. He stared at her door blankly.
"I don't want to be around you right now" echoed in his mind as he listened to her sobs as she cried into her pillow.

The next morning at training, Kim and Heero kept their distance. Relena was all over him and she never cared. Heero glanced over at her now and then and quickly looked away. He never knew what he really had felt and now that he knew, he never knew how to tell her.
Ashley was with Duo like always. They were working on their gundams and checking them out after the battle the night before.
Steph and Quatre were working on their gundams and Steph was hitting on Quatre. Quatre protested but soon gave up and took it as a compliment.
Later that evening, Kim jumped down and headed for the showers. She had ignored Heero all day and he was feeling pretty down. He stopped her as she tried to leave. He put a hand on her shoulder and looked at her. This time, she never pulled away. She never had the spirit to do so.
"Kim...let's talk." he said.
"Okay." she said reluctantly to avoid another scene.
He lead her out to the balcony. Kim just gazed out at the city. There was an awkward silence and finally Heero broke it.
" I'm sorry for the other night." he said slowly.
"I can't believe that I said that."
Kim just looked at him.
He took her hands and looked her in the eyes.
"Kim...I..."
"Yah?!"
"I have a lot of feelings for you." he said and looked at her hopefully. She smiled. She knew what he was getting at. He never was good at expressing his feelings.
" I love you too." she said as her eyes began to water and she wrapped her arms around him. He leaned in and they shared a long, lingering kiss. Little did they know that Relena was watching them from behind the curtain.
" That's it. Just you wait! If I can't have him, no one will." Relena said in a jealous voice and disappeared.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
"A real life simulation?! Just for us girls?!" Staph said excitedly.
"We're going to pilot out gundams again?!" Ashley exclaimed.
"Uh...where's Relena?" Quatre asked.
"Yah, she's usually here by now." Ashley added and scratched the back of her head.
"Let's go look. " Wu-fei suggested and the group broke up. No one found her.
Then duo and Ashley ran in.
"Her gundam and clothes are all gone." Duo said out of breath.
"What?" Heero exclaimed.
"Well, let it be for now. Well track her later. There's a tracking device in her gundam."
"Well, let's get started." Trowa said. They all agreed.
15 minutes later, they were ready to begin. They were surrounded by targets.
"Go!!!!"
They destroyed them in lightning speed.
"Damn! Remind me not to get on their bad sides." Duo said.
"Sorry to break it to you but you're already on Ashley's bad side." Trowa pointed out.
"Um...Yah." He said.
Then, they broke out into victory dances. Steph began to slap her ass. They all stared in disbelief.
"They're embarrassing us again." Dr.J commented.
"Ah, leave them alone." Wu-fei said.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
"Good night Ashley." Duo said.
"Thanks." she replied.
They had grown closer and she felt more comfortable around him. He took away the pain from the memories of her Father.
"Good night." Quatre said and kissed Steph lightly.
"Well, it's a start." she said and shrugged her shoulders.
Quatre looked at her strangely.
"See ya tomorrow." Kim smiled at Heero.
"Yah dido." he said and kissed her good night.
"Uhhhhhhh... Kimmy got a boyfriend." They all said in a teasing voice.
"Shut up!" Kim yelled embarrassed.
They all laughed and the both of them turned a bright crimson. This was very out of character for Heero, he usually never showed any emotion.
"You choked!!!!" Heero shouted at Kim. He had her pinned against her bedroom door by her shoulders.
"You could have been Killed! Baka! What do you think you were doing?! What were you trying to prove?!" he continued to yell.
