"Could you whisper in my ear
The things you wanna feel
I'd give ya anythin'
To feel it comin'
Do you wake up on your own?
And wonder where you are
You live with all your faults..."
I had no idea where to begin. I knew that Trowa and Quatre had always wondered who Jade's father was, but they knew that it was a story I was not yet willing to tell. Now I had no choice and they had a right to know. They were good friends of mine and deserved that much. Although I was worried that I would hurt Quatre, it had always seemed as if he had the slightest bit of a crush on me.
We were all standing in the alleyway and I was completely speechless. Heero sensed that I was nervous and walked up behind me and wrapped his arms around my waist. I leaned into him taking everything in. I couldn't believe that he was back. I was so ashamed of myself for everything that I had put him and myself through.
"I wanna wake up where you are
I won't say anything at all
So why don't you slide
Yeah I'm gonna let it slide..."
"Well, Trowa, Quatre, meet Heero. He's Jade's father, though he didn't know it until this morning some time. Or actually he wasn't sure until right now." I smiled up at him ad he had an awestruck look on his face. He looked dazed and confused, and very happy. I laughed quietly and leaned up to kiss him on the cheek. "And this is Heero Duo, I met him tonight."
"Duo and I have met Relena. We have been friends since boarding school."
"Relena," Trowa questioned.
"Don't you love the life you killed
The priest is on the phone
Your father hit the wall
Your ma disowned you
Don't supposed I'll ever know
What it means to be a man
Somethin' I can't change
I'll live around it..."
"Its my birth name, I changed it when I ran away from my relationship with Heero three years ago so that he wouldn't be able to find me. I didn't want to be found. I was afraid. Our relationship wasn't very good and we kept fighting all the time. But I never stopped loving him. Even now..."
"I wanna wake up where you are
I won't say anything at all
So why don't you slide
Mmm mmm slide And
I'll do anythin' you ever dreamed to be complete
Little pieces of the nothin' that fall..."
I looked down at my feet feeling like a coward. Heero cupped my cheeks between his hands and gently turned my face to his for a gentle kiss. 'its okay, love. Let's just start fresh and try again. I'd do anything for you, you should have known that. Trust in me and in my love for you. At least let me get to know my daughter. She deserves that much. I deserve that much, as do you hun."
I looked back towards my three companions awkwardly. "I'm sorry that I never told you guys my story. I wanted to leave everything behind. It meant everything to me that you never pressured me into telling you about my past. It's a bit darker then you realize, even darker then Heero realizes. I have many secrets."
"Oh May
Put your arms around me
What you feel is what you are
And what you are is beautiful..."
"Its alright Amber," Quatre said, the first to break the silence that followed my speech. 'Why don't you two take your time to catch up, I'm sure that you have many things you want to talk about."
"Thank-you. Thank-you so much you guys. You're the best friends a girl could hope for." I gave all three of them big hugs, even Duo despite the fact that I had just met him.
"Oh May
Do you wanna get married, or run away?
And I'll do anythin' you ever dreamed to be complete
Little pieces of the nothin' that fall..."
"Let's go Relena, I want to hear about everything. Including how good your store is going. I'm so glad you followed your dream."
"'Really, I thought that you thought it was stupid. That you didn't believe in me. Or in any of my dreams." I said shyly, looking up into his eyes surprised.
"Oh May
Put your arms around me
What you feel is what you are
And what you are is beautiful..."
"Love, I would have done anything to make you happy, I would have built that damned store myself. I only resented the fact that you shut me out of your life. Separating everything else from me. I wanted to be a part of your life, hun, and not just an accessory."
"Oh..."
"Oh May
Do you wanna get married, or run away?
I wanna wake up where you are
I won't say anything at all (yeah slide)
And I'll do anythin' you ever dreamed to be complete (yeah slide)
Little pieces of the nothin' that fall
(yeah slide)..."
He took my hand and turned me around, allowing me to lead the way back to my apartment. We walked slowly, his hand in mine. Every once and a while he would stop and touch my hair lovingly, or caress my cheek with his free hand. Sometimes he just leaned down as we walked and kissed my forehead gently. Every second was oozing with love and longing, happiness at being apart for the last three years. It had seemed so much longer. Now that he was back I couldn't dream of why I could have left him.
"And I'll do anythin' you ever dreamed to be complete
(yeah slide)
Little pieces of the nothin' that fall
(Oh Oh Oh slide)
Yeah, slide between the sheet of all the beds you never knew
(Yeah slide)..."
I loved this man.
"Why don't you slide into my room
Just slide into my room
Oh, we'll run away, run away, run away..."
