Heero stood dressed well with flowers as he left his hotel room at 6:30PM.
Getting into his car , he felt a sinking feeling in his stomach as he
thought about what Duo had said to him. He didn't want to give up on
Relena but he didn't want to leave this girl either! He pulled into the
parking lot by her apartment , and turned off the engine. He found himself
frozen. He couldn't believe that he had betrayed Relena's memory. It hurt
him deeply now that he was not looking into Rachel's blue eyes....
Rachel sat in the living room with Lillian , her hair and make up done up. She and Lillian had started at 5PM so she would look her best. Rachel had picked out the best dress , the best make up , the most fantastic hair do. She had even wore a brilliant necklace given to her a long time ago. It was diamonds , very expensive. Lillian always reminded her how proud she was of Rachel to not pawn it after all this time.The money she could get a lot of money for it.
'Not that I need to draw attention to myself,' she thought , her hands on her lap. Looking up , the clock read 7:30PM. He was thirty minutes late.Lillian sensed her friend's fears.
"He's new here , he probably just got lost," Lillian said , fixing the part of Rachel's hair that had begun to sag. Rachel smiled at her roommate's ability to make light of the situation. Lillian had always been like that , although Rachel noticed that Lillian didn't do much dating of her own. It puzzled Rachel to no end how she could make her feel better countless times without experiencing it herself.
Heero sat in his car , frozen. He had been thinking. It hurt him to not go , but it would hurt Rachel if he went to her doorstep and told her he was cancelling. What was worse , it was far too late to call her and tell her some lie. It was 8:00PM , an hour later.He couldn't leave , and he was torn in decision.He couldn't go to the door , because of Relena.But he couldn't drive away because of Rachel. It had been his most difficult empotion to deal with yet. Confusion.
"He could still be lost , I mean he had a strange accent. He'll be here Rachel , I know he will," Lillian said , patting Rachel's shoulder , attempting to comfort her. "I saw the sparks between you two , there's no mistake about it,".
"I guess...." Rachel said , her hair a bit loose and her dress wrinkled from sitting on the couch for an hour.
"Don't worry Rachel , if he doesn't come , I'll beat him up and bury him alive!"she said cheerfully. Rachel smiled , and she hugged Lillian.
"Thanks Lil , I wouldn't have been able to get this far without you," Rachel said , using the nickname she had thought of a year earlier.
~~One hour later...(a.k.a. all hell breaks loose)~~
Heero felt like such a jerk. Rachel would never want to see him again , and it felt as though that was enough to kill him at the moment. But he knew it was far too late to go to the door and say he had gotten lost.He had been parked for two hours now.
Rachel sat on the couch , with Lillian holding her gently.
"Why did he do this to me?" she asked quietly.
"It's not your fault," Lillian replied. Lifting Rachel's head up , she noticed that Rachel had cried no tears. "You're not the perfect soldier Rachel , it's okay to cry,". Lillian wasn't sure what she had said wrong. But Rachel's eyes filled with tears. Standing up , Rachel grabbed a kleenex and slammed the door on her way out of the apartment. The old saying had been enough to make her burst into tears , but she didn't want Lillian to know that the phrase , 'the perfect soldier' effected her so much. Her mascara was running and most of her make-up was smudged a bit.Her hair? A complete mess which was once a work of art. Lillian had designed the hairstyle herself. She stormed down into the parking lot , and spotted a dark car. She stopped crying for a moment and locked eyes with the driver in the front seat. HIM.
"Fudge!Crape!Sheet!I HATE YOU!" she screamed , waking some people up down the street.She looked away and continued to walk away , crying.
Heero immediately regretted not going to the apartment. Opening the door , he knew he was busted.The look in her eyes was....sad , confused , disappointed. He felt the pain in her eyes stab his heart. Not bothering to close the door , he ran after her.She began to run , but couldn't do much in spiked high heels.Stepping in front of her , he blocked her exit.
"Look , I can explain-" he began.
"No!Why did you do that to me?!How could you do something so cruel?!I waited for two hours!Why do you want to hurt me?!" she half yelled , cutting him off.
"I don't want to hurt you ,I'm sorry," he said , hoping she heard him. Looking into his eyes , she saw tears. It was there she decided to break down. Taking her into his arms , she began to cry again. She shook in his arms , and he realized what the consequence of hesitating was in this world of emotions at that moment. But being in his arms , she felt protected and he felt complete and needed. She had finally stopped shaking and crying after a while. She remained still , her head buried just below his shoulder.Hating to break the embrace , she looked him in the eyes.
"Promise you won't hurt me anymore," she said , her eyes pleading.
"I won't hurt you anymore , I'm sorry," he said. This time he broke their eye contact by bending over to her level. Catching her eyes once more , she closed her eyes in instinct as he covered her lips with his.
