Chapter Ten
What is she doing here? Wufei demanded.
She is staying the night, Heero walked past Wufei, Serena following behind.
Wufei shouted angrily, Are you crazy?!
Heero turned to the angry boy, She won't be in your room so stop complaining.
Duo looked up from his dinner, Can she stay in my room then? I'll keep her company.
Heero glared down at Duo,
He and Serena continued past the dining boys and into his room. Serena tossed her bag into a corner and sat down an the edge of the bed before looking around.
Nice room, she smiled up at Heero.
It's kind of a mess right now, Heero picked up a few objects off of the floor, I didn't know you would be coming so I hadn't cleaned it.
It's not a big deal, Serena took one last look around the nearly bare room.
I'll go get you some clean sheets, Heero turned and walked from the room.
He went back into the kitchen to find Quatre. He wasn't quite sure where the sheets where kept. As he entered the room everyone turned to face him.
Duo winked up at Heero, Is she staying in your room?
Heero ignored the question and turned to Quatre, Where are the clean sheets?
Quatre stood and placed his plate in the sink, he quickly washed his hands before facing Heero. We have lived here how long now? And you still don't know where we keep the sheets?
I don't either! Duo laughed.
Quatre rolled his eyes, They are in the hall closet, he opened the a fore mentioned and pulled out a fresh set of sheets. Are these all right?
Heero looked down at the pink patterned sheets, Why do we have pink sheets?
Quatre shrugged, I think they might be Wufei's.
All heads turned to the blushing boy, Uh, uh, no they don't!
Wufei has pink sheets! Duo laughed, I can't believe it! That is just too funny.
Heero took the sheets and the blanket Quatre held out to him,
Your welcome, Quatre turned back to the kitchen.
Heero went back into his bed room, I have clean bedding.
Serena stood up from the bed, Do you need help?
Heero began pulling the old sheets and blankets from the bed and tossed them into a pile on the floor, No that's fine. He quickly made the bed, including hospital corners.
Serena surveyed his work, I've been around a lot longer then you and I still don't know how to do that.
Heero shrugged, I've been making my beds like this since I was a kid.
Serena laid down o the newly made bed, It's comfy.
I guess, Heero began absentmindedly cleaning his room. He closed the dresser drawers, and put the papers on his desk into neat piles.
Don't worry, Serena sat back up, My rooms way messier.
Heero stopped and turned back to the girl on the bed, I should probably let you get to sleep.
Serena smiled, but there's no rush.
I still haven't had dinner, Heero began backing out of the room, and I still need to make my bed on the couch.
All right, Serena stood and picked up her bag, I'll get changed while your gone.
Heero quickly left the room, closing the door loudly behind himself. He walked back to the group of boys, Quatre held out a plate.
Quatre handed him a fork, I figured you might be hungry.
Heero set the plate on the table and went to the sink to wash his hands,
Quatre shrugged, Duo ate your dessert though.
First come first serve, Duo laughed.
Heero sighed and began eating his meal. When he had finished he placed his dishes in the sink. That was really good.
Quatre blushed, Thank you. Trowa helped cut the vegetables.
Trowa looked up from his book, No I didn't.
Quatre looked confused, Was that yesterday then?
Trowa set his book down, No, I helped you at lunch.
Quatre looked sadly at the table, I had forgotten.
Trowa leaned over to where the boy sat, Are you feeling all right?
Quatre didn't answer at first, I'm not sure.
Trowa stood and walked over to the smaller boy, he knelt down and placed his hand on the other boy's forehead. I think you may have a fever.
Quatre pushed away Trowa's hand, I'm going to go lie down.
Trowa stepped back and helped Quatre to his feet, Do you want me to get you anything?
Quatre shook his head,
Heero watched as Quatre walked to his room, closing the door softly behind him. He turned to the other boys around the room, each was staring after Quatre, looks of concern on each of their faces.
I'm going to go check on Serena, Heero stood and went back to his own room.
He knocked quietly on the door before opening it, Serena, is it all right if I come in?
Serena answered, standing beside the bed.
Heero walked into the room, smiling at Serena's bunny printed pajamas, Cute p.j.'s.
Serena twirled around on one of her bunny slippered feet.
I just came to check on you and get my own pajamas. Heero walked to his dresser. He pulled out a pair of shorts.
I'm fine, Serena smiled, You don't need to worry.
Heero shrugged, Sorry, can't help it.
Serena blushed, Why don't you change, I'll go talk to the others.
Heero walked into his bathroom, closing the door, but it will only take a moment. He turned and locked the door before stripping off his clothing, he tossed them into a hamper beside the door before getting into the shower. He quickly washed his hair and his body, before turning off the warm water. He dressed hurriedly, then brushed his teeth. In less then five minutes he was done.
Serena was still in the room when he emerged, That was fast, she looked at his wet hair, Shower too?
He nodded, Yeah. You said you wanted to talk?
Oh, I did, didn't I? Serena looked up guiltily, I had forgotten.
What did you want to talk about? Heero sat down beside her on the bed.
Sighing Serena began, I wanted to tell you a bit about Rini's father. I think that might help to explain her behavior.
Heero agreed, It might help us to eventually capture her as well.
Serena again began, Rini's fathers name was Darien, he was three years older then me when we met. I was thirteen, he was seventeen. I hadn't liked him when we had first met, he had teased me. I had thought he was cute, but he was just so mean. After awhile we kept running into each other, he would torment me, I would get angry and usually cry. Then one afternoon he invited me to a festival, I couldn't understand why he would invite me. I agreed to go with him, mostly out of curiosity. After that he was much nicer to me, when my fourteenth birthday arrived he bought me the most beautiful shoes. The next few months where fairly uneventful, then on the third month after my birthday, almost to the day, he asked something of me. Serena paused for a moment, sniffing back tears.
Why don't we skip that part? Heero asked, wrapping his arm around her.
Serena nodded, All right. Anyway over the next few months we continued our relationships, and he kept asking me to.... you know.... and I foolishly agreed each time. I soon found out I was pregnant, some how I was able to hide it. When Darien decided to go to England, I went with him. This is when I learned his true nature.
You already told me what happened when you got there, Heero interrupted, If you would like to stop you may.
Serena wiped away the tears streaming from her eye's, I didn't tell you this before, she took a deep breath, Darien always had this thing for roses, not just any rose, red roses. He was always bring me roses, randomly carrying one, or just buying some for his home. He even named all of his businesses after them. One of his brothels was named The Roses of Paradise,' I never understood his fixation.
Heero stood, Thank you for telling me all of this. I know that it is getting late, I should probably go.
Please don't, Serena pulled him back down beside her, Just wait until I have fallen asleep.
All right, Heero agreed, Just until you have fallen asleep.
Serena crawled under the covers and lay down, Lie down too.
Heero lay down beside her,
Serena placed her head on his chest,
Heero blushed as he felt her hair run across his arm and his stomach. He looked down at the girl beside him,
came the girls drowsy voice.
Good night, said, closing his eyes.
Good night, Serena answered.
Heero was just going to rest until Serena fell asleep, then he would leave. He kept telling himself that, but soon he too was asleep.

Dr. J? Heero walked into his mentors room, Dr. J it's time for my lessons.
came the weak answer.
Dr. J? Heero ran to the sound of the voice. He found Dr. J collapsed on the other side of the bed, Dr. J?!
Dr. J coughed, blood spilling from his mouth, She found me, Heero...
Who Dr. J? Heero lifted the older mans head gently, Who found you?
Dr. J held up a red rose weakly, She did, Heero, the beautiful girl with pale pink hair.
Heero began to cry, Dr. J, please, can you get up?
Dr. J closed his eyes, No... Heero... I don't think I'll be getting up again.
Heero shouted, Get up Dr. J. You aren't done yet, you haven't finished. You promised to train me, you promised!
Dr. J gasped, Stop crying, crying is weak. You won't cry anymore.
Dr. J! Heero tried to hold back the tears.
You are eleven now Heero, Dr. J closed his eyes, I couldn't train you further if I wanted too.
Dr. J, please open your eyes, Heero shook the dying man, Please open your eyes!
Dr. J took one last breath, before he began to cough again. The blood splattered across Heero's face. Then as Dr. J stopped coughing his heartbeat stopped as well.
Heero hugged the body of his father,' No! Wake up! Wake up! Please, please, wake up!

Serena shook the boy, Wake up! Wake up, Heero.
Heero opened his eyes slowly. He lifted a hand to his face, it came back wet. he looked up at the concerned girl.
You where having a nightmare, Serena let go of Heero's arm, I was worried.
I'm sorry, Heero sat up, I didn't mean to frighten you.
Serena lay back down and pulled him down with her, You didn't, I was just a little concerned. You where crying.
Heero rubbed roughly at his eyes, I shouldn't have.
Serena rolled over to face him, Why shouldn't you have?
Heero rolled so that his back faced Serena, I'm not supposed too.
Serena wrapped her arms around Heero, It's o.k. to cry, Heero. When you dream you have no control over it anyway.
I still shouldn't have, Heero sighed.
Serena tightened her grip on him, We should go back to sleep.
I guess, Heero mumbled.
Serena lightly kissed his shoulder, Good night.
Good night, Heero closed his eyes.
Serena smiled down at the sleeping boy, Heero, thank you.' She watched him sleep for a few moments before she too drifted off into a dreamless sleep.
