chapter three. Hope you like it. Oh!! Almost forgot. I don't own GW or any
of its characters. Damn Bandai does.
Holding back chapter 3: remembering
The next morning, Relena woke up to the sun in her eyes and a beautiful day. Although, to her, it was anything but beautiful. She was lonely. She missed Heero. She still couldn't figure out why he left. She thought it was something she had done, but how? What did she do that was so wrong? What did she do that made him leave?
Relena quietly went to the bathroom, took a shower and got ready to work. Sure it may have been Saturday, but there are no weekends for the Vice Foreign Minister. In a way, she was glad she had to work. Hopefully it would keep her mind off Heero for a while.
" Relena! You ready?" Duo asked as he came through the door. " Yes Duo. Let's go"
As they went to the car, Duo noticed that Relena wasn't her cheery self. She had her head down and never looked into his eyes when she spoke to him. There was no smile on her face either. It was like she was ripped apart and trying to forget about the pain. When they sat in the car and were on their way to the first meeting of the day, Relena sifted through her papers, trying to remember her speech. She practiced it a few times with Duo.
She seemed calm now. Like she had forgotten about the night before. She actually had some form of a smile on her face. When they finally made it to their destination, Duo helped Relena out of the car. She smiled at him and thanked him. Then, they went inside.
Duo was always bored at her meetings. Nothing but old men yelling and arguing with one another. Relena would say a few words once I a while, but it still was boring. Duo stayed in the back of the room, watching. He needed to make sure Relena was safe at all times. It was his job. To protect one of his best friends. He liked it. The only thing he didn't like was sitting in during these boring meetings.
Three hours later
Relena sat back in her chair and relaxed while the delegates left the room. ' Finally' she thought to herself. She was exhausted. She had been sitting listening to these same men for three hours. It was boring. Except for when she had to interfere and calm them down before a fight broke out.
She was somewhat happier than before. She had a smile on her face and smiled at Duo as he came and sat next to her while she started to get her things together. After she placed her papers in her briefcase, she picked it up and got ready to leave. When she picked up her briefcase, it opened up. She forgot to lock it before grabbing it. Duo helped her gather her papers. As Relena picked her papers off the floor, she found a small picture. She looked at it and tears started to fall down her cheeks.
It was a picture of her and Heero at the last Christmas ball. He was actually smiling. Of course Relena was too. It was the first time she had had so much fun. She loved it. Her and Heero spent a lot of time together that night. Even Heero had fun. Which was strange for him. She missed every moment of it. His touch and his smile. She missed his company. Without him nothing was he the same.
Duo came closer to her and wiped away her tears. " Hey. You okay?" Duo asked while holding her. " Why. Why did he leave, Duo?" " Who knows? I don't think anyone does." " Was.was it me? Was it something I did?" Duo stood up and waved his arms in the air in surprise. " Of course not, Relena! Don't think like that!" " Do you think he'll come back?" " Who knows? Hey! What am I saying? He's the perfect soldier and your guard. He'll be back" ' you better come back. You're hurting her. Don't you know that?' he thought to himself. " Come on Relena. Let's go'
With that last thing said, they went out to the car and headed back for the mansion. Relena had two hours before her next meeting. Duo knew she needed time to relax before then.
When they arrived back at the mansion. Quatre and the others were still there. They said they wouldn't leave, so they didn't. They greeted Duo and Relena at the door. Quatre looked at Duo and knew something was wrong. Relena went to her room, and Duo and the others went to the kitchen. Quatre decided to ask Duo what was wrong and he told all of them about the picture and how Elena was extremely upset.
When Relena was in her room, she laid down on her bed and began to cry. She kept remembering how happy she was when Heero was around. She couldn't get him out of her mind. It was torturing her. She wanted to die. She missed him so much. She didn't know what to do. Eventually, she felt sleep overcome her and fell asleep. Until she was woken up by Quatre, who was sitting at the bottom of her bed.
" You alright Relena?" he asked her. " I'm fine. Just tired I guess." " If you need anything, let me know." " Thanks Quatre." " Your welcome Miss Relena" As he walked out her door Relena sat up and waved her hand, telling him to wait. " Hey Quatre?' " Yes?" " Can you cancel my meetings for me please. I don 't feel well. I need a break." " Sure Relena."
' I wish there was more I could do for her. She has lost the one thing that kept her strong. For her sake Heero, you better return' Quatre thought to himself as he exited the room and headed down stairs. When he went downstairs, he went to the study and canceled all of Relena's meetings for the day. Then, he went back to see the others who were now in the living room.
" You were right." Quatre said to Duo as he went and sat down. " Told you it was bad." " You canceled all of her meetings. Didn't you?" trowa asked. " Yeah. She said she wasn't feeling good." " Of she's not feeling good. Heero hurt badly this time. He's going to pay when I get my hands on him." Duo said as he imitated how he was going to strangled Heero to death. " Women are just weak." Wufie added, " He wanted to leave. You all know that." " But why?" Duo replied as he sat back in his chair.
The rest of the day, no one ever saw Relena. They guessed that she was still in her room. Probably trying to figure out the same thing they were. Trying to find out where Heero could have gone.
