Don't Want To Be Alone
Wow you wouldn't believe the problems I had getting this up! But anyway I can now use italics so the characters thoughts will be in them.
Lot's of thanks to:
Ashleigh-Kaiba: Well Destiny's plan is here and I agree about Relena... but then again she'd be pissing people off by just sitting there.
Venus-love: Glad you enjoyed it. I had a lot of fun writing it.
Venus Of Love: It's time for me to reveal what Destiny's plan is and hopefully you'll enjoy this one better than the last chapter.
Nyneve: I really do hope you'll keep your promise (at least the reviewing part. Though last time I checked you didn't owe me anything...". It makes my day to hear from other people. It's really fun to see how peoples opinions differ.
Sadie Joyce Mist Lady: They aren't slow... just a little air headed. Anyway they seem to spend more time fighting than on the actual cause...
transcendent: Well it's the least I can do for Heero since as you said he got beaten up. I'm sure he would agree that it was worth it!
Veggie-Babu-chan: It's amazing how that little line seemed to fit so well (She is a shrew) and the denial will ebb soon at least. As for Milardo... well you'll see in one of the next few chapters...
Optical-Illusion: God must love you today I updated... finally...

~Somewhere~
"How could it have failed?" Fate screamed as she gripped her magenta hair and tugged, "Everything was going so smoothly, no problem in sight. I just don't understand how their feelings couldn't have changed."
"Yeah, and who would have guessed that right when they were getting comfortable with each other Duo would butt in and ask them 'When's the wedding.' Though I have to admit the expression on their faces was priceless." Destiny comments as she grabs her sister's hands before they can cause any permanent damage to her flowing locks.
Fate whirls around to point accusingly at Destiny. "You find this funny don't you! That comment alone has set us back."
"No, well maybe just a tiny bit funny. Now hand over that money."
Fate sits down dejectedly before crossing her arms and pouting, "Well fine then, I guess it's your turn now..."
Cracking her knuckles while a huge smile creeps onto Destiny's face, "Well then you just sit back, relax, and let the master work."
Shaking her head Fate mutters, "You have got to be kidding."
"What was that!"
~Mina~
"Come on Mina, he was just overreacting to Duo's comment!" Lita sighed frustrated as she placed her head against the cool metal surface of the bathroom stall.
"No he wasn't Lita!" Mina could be heard sniffling from the inside the stall. Why is his reaction making me so upset. I don't even like him like that.
"Yes he was. I know Heero isn't always nicest guy in the world but..." Lita tries again to get Mina to come out.
"But nothing! He didn't need to say or act like that." In an outburst of rage Mina hits the side of the stall and then frowns at her hand. Ow, that's gonna bruise.
Lita jumps away from the stall in surprise, "I know he didn't but what he thinks doesn't matter. Are you really ugly?"
"No..." Mina takes her head out of her hands and looks up thoughtfully. At least I never thought so.
"Annoying?"
"Mmm, maybe sometimes..." Definitely not as annoying as Relena.
"A Relena clone?"
"HELL NO!" Mina stamps her foot as she stands. Now that one was going a little too far!
"Then why are you so upset. Come on hun, open this door so we can clean you up and then we'll show him just how wrong he is."
Mina swung open the door, "Your right! Why should I care. He is just a guy and on top of that he means nothing to me." But then why does it still hurt.
Lita hugs her best friend, "That's the spirit. Now let's rinse your face off so we can go."
~Heero~
Heero glares off into space as Duo tries to apologize to him, "Dude I'm sorry. I was only kidding. It was just an adorable sight..." Heero being the no-nonsense type of person had shoved his gun in front of Duo's face to shut him up. That woman and I are nothing.
"Heero please put that thing away before we get kicked out of here," Quatre begs looking around nervously seeing that half of the people were looking at them.
"If you ask me I think that woman got what she deserved," Wufei muttered, "She should know her place."
"We didn't ask," Trowa shot out before he warns, "They're coming."
Heero put his gun away before turning to glare in the direction the girls were coming from. Honestly he didn't know why he'd yelled at her or even said those things. She really wasn't that bad. Heero studies them both;When his eyes land on Mina he feels a tug at his heart. Mina was walking with her head high and a cheerful smile on her face but with his sharp gaze he could see through her mask. Her eyes red and held a look of sadness in them
It was the sadness that caught Heero the most. Did I cause that? The look was so foreign to her face. It almost made Heero want to wrap his arms protectively around her. What is happening. This is against code!
When the girls reached the group it was decided that they had better head back to the apartment.
Once outside Heero walks over to where his Motorcycle is parked and pulls on his helmet before getting out his spare and tossing it to Mina.
"You have got to be kidding me. I have to ride that..." Mina pointed at the cycle, "With him." her finger moved over to Heero. "Are you nuts! He'll kill me! Why can't I ride in with you guys?"
"Sorry Mina there isn't any room left, unless you want to go return some of our purchases..." Lita began to say but she was cut off by Mina grumbling about psycho gun-toting, motorcycle-riding killers and shoving the helmet onto her head.
Heero scowls at the girls as he waits for Mina to mount the motorcycle. Once she was firmly in place and lightly touching his waist, he revved the engine and told her to "Hold on."
~General~
"Hold on" was all Heero told Mina before he slowly took off. Mina reluctantly held onto his waist, ok so it was more like barely touching since she didn't want to make her relationship with Heero any worse than it currently was. He is such a mystery. One moment we're getting alone and the next he's yelling and saying mean things, not to mention a total grump. Mina watched the scenery as they drove past.
Even with being forced to ride together in close proximately Heero felt perfectly comfortable with the young lady behind him. Shouldn't this be awkward? Driving much slower than usual Heero turned onto the highway, during the turn Heero felt Mina's grip on his sides tighten. Smirking Heero began to speed up... Payback time...
Mina screamed as the motorcycle doubled its speed, without thinking twice she threw her arms around Heero's waist and buried her head into his shoulder. He's out to get me I know it! But I could get used to this... Mina's eyes shot open I don't like him do I?
Heero could have laughed when he heard Mina scream and felt her arms cling around him. That would teach her to try and beat him. He was Heero Yuy the perfect soldier and he ALWAYS won. Why does she have to smell so good, like lilacs... Why do her arms feel so right around me?
~Somewhere~
"So Destiny when is your plan going to start... or has it already failed?"
"You have so much confidence in me my dear sister. My plan is going to leave them quite... elevated." Fate throws her head back and laughs manically.
"Sometimes I wonder about you."
~Mina~
As soon as the motorcycle stopped Mina was off of it, "Never again, you hear that Heero Yuy. I am never getting on that thing again, especially with you!"
"Agreed," Heero growled as they headed toward the elevator.
Fuming Mina climbed into the elevator and jammed her finger into the button. I wish I could just figure him out then maybe he'll leave my mind. Out of the corner of her eye Mina watched Heero as he scowled at his reflection. Mina was about to comment when there was a sharp jerk and the lights flashed off. "Why aren't we moving?" It wasn't long before the backup lights turned on.
In the red glow Heero found the emergency phone and tried to call the front desk, "It's dead."
"Great, just great." Mina slid down the wall to the floor. "Who knows how long we'll be stuck in here." Heero joined her and they sat in silence.
~Apartment (General)~
"Shouldn't they be back yet" Quatre asks worriedly as he strode onto the balcony, "It's been a while since we got back."
Lita looks up from her stew, "I'm sure they are fine. Probably made a few stops on the way home."
"Or they could be getting to know each other better..." The whole room looks at Duo and begins to laugh.
"Doubtful, very doubtful." Wufei snorts.
~Elevator (General)~
The silence still reigned as the elevators inhabitants got more and more uncomfortable. "Man, it's hot in here." Mina wiped the sweat off her forehead before glancing at Heero, who had recently removed his shirt due to the heat. They had been trapped for nearly an hour by that point. Mmm he is so delectable... Mina! What are you thinking! "Heero?"
"Hm." Heero glared at Mina wondering how she could stand the sitting there with all her clothing intact except for her ribbon which now held her hair in a bun.
"I was wondering why you hate me so much." By this point Mina had turned to face Heero and was innocently gazing at him. "I mean I only met you today and I haven't done anything..."
Heero glared back into Mina's wide eyes and for the life of him he couldn't think of any logical reason as to why he felt so hostile towards her. As this realization dawned on him his gaze softened a little, "I don't know."
They sat in a silence again until Mina extended her hand, "How about we start over, at the beginning? Hi I'm Mina Aino." Please let him except.
Heero just stared at the hand. Can it really be that easy? There has to be a catch... After contemplating for a while Heero stretched out his own hand just as Mina was about to draw her own back.
Right when their hands were about to touch Mina pulled hers away saying, "I must warn you though. If you take my hand your also gonna get my friendship, accept?" Again she offered her hand.
Without a second thought Heero firmly gripped her hand ignoring the tingly feeling their interlocked hands caused, "Accepted. Friends."
Silence no longer reigned as Mina and Heero began to fill the time talking about their past or least what they could reveal. It wasn't long before the elevator began to work once again and the two were able to finally return home.
~Somewhere~
"Ha I told you your plan wouldn't work!" Fate did a victory dance around the room.
"Are you so sure of that?" Destiny cooly says as she examines her nails.
Fate halts in the middle of flapping her arms like a chicken, "Well they aren't in love."
"True but I did undo the damage you did. See they are friends." Destiny turns away from fate in an all knowing manner.
"Admit it you lost." Fate grabbed Destiny's shoulder forcing her around.
"Now, now, girls there is no reason to fight. Neither of you accomplished your goals, but how about I give it a try..." Sailor Pluto steps out of the shadows where she had been watching the sisters quarrel.
Fate plops down into her chair, "Go ahead, but if we failed you will to."
"Yeah they are impossible." Destiny slid next to her sister.
"We'll see now what was that bet... fifty dollars?." Pluto smirks.
