Holding back ch. 6

Hey! I got this up real fast.

Ch 6 The dinner from heaven? Nah hell.

"Where do you think you're going?" Zechs yelled.

" What do you think I'm doing. I'm going out." Relena said.

" Not you. Him!" Zechs said as he stared at Wufie.

"Hey! Hey! Give him a break Zechs. I'm sure he's sorry. Right Wufie?" Duo said as he stepped between the two men. Wufie stared at the ground and nodded. Relena grabbed Wufie and pulled him out the door, ignoring her brother's yelling.

Duo was afraid to leave. When he did, he knew a good pounding was on the way. Soon, they were on their way. When they got there they were all hungry. Duo of course, claimed that Hilde had been starving him and he couldn't wait to eat.

~~~~One hour later~~~~

They were still at the restaurant. Duo of course hadn't stopped eating. He was still stuffing his face as usual. While the others slowly finished their meals, Relena sat quietly, eyes wandering. Of course, she still didn't eat. Duo joked around with her, trying to spoon feed her or saying that he would melt if she didn't eat.

She was happy to be with all her friends, yet, her mind wondered. Amazingly, Duo had stopped eating and was now staring at Relena. He could tell something was wrong, but he couldn't figure it out. He knew it wasn't Heero, so, what was it?

"Hey! I got an idea. Why don't we hit this new club down the street?" Duo suggested.

"Good idea Duo!" Hilde shouted as she jumped out of her seat and pulled Duo away from the table. Duo left the money on the table before was dragged out the door. The others smiled and laughs were exchanged while they joined Duo and Hilde in the car.

The club was exactly how Duo had described it in the car. It was packed, loud, but it had great drinks. The only problem was trying not to let anyone recognize Relena. That was easy though. There were so many drunk people, who would recognize her here, especially since her appearance has drastically over the past week.

Immediately, Duo and Hilde were on the dance floor. Soon, Quatre and Trowa found dance partners, and they joined them. Wufie eventually left to get a drink at the bar. Relena was left alone.

~~~~~2 hours later~~~~

Duo and Hilde realized that Relena was left alone. Hilde felt bad and dragged Duo back to the table with her. Then, Hilde had Duo take Relena to dance. Hilde noticed how down she looked and thought Duo could help. Hilde joined Wufie at the bar.

"Hey Duo? You and Hilde should take this dance."

"Nah. Don't worry Relena. She's fine. I actually think she might be alittle tired."

"Oh" she replied as she held on to Duo and danced to the slow music. Duo could tell something was definitely something wrong. But, it wasn't like something was bothering her. Well, maybe something was bothering her, but he could tell she wasn't well. Of course, you can't call a person that hasn't eaten in a week well.

After the song, Duo and Relena went back to the table where the others were. It was now about 11o'clock and Relena, Quatre, and Trowa were tired. Of course, Duo and Hilde could have stayed out all night. So, they went back to Relena's house.

When the got there, Zechs was still up. Apparently, he was waiting for them to bring his sister home. When Relena walked through the door, all Zechs did was scream. Why are you late? All you were suposed to do was go to eat! Did you even eat anything? Zechs kept ranting and raving nonstop.

Eventually, Duo got annoyed and yelled, " we took her to a dance club! And come on! She's old enough to drink! I think she's old enough to go out on her own!"(In sank, you had to be at least 18 to drink)

" I would watch what you say, Maxwell! How dare you take her to a place like that." Zechs yelled as he landed a punch in Duo's gut. Duo flew to the floor in pain. Relena ran over to help Hilde get Duo to his room, while the others and Noin held Zechs back.

After Duo had settled down, Relena went to her room. She was exhausted, but she couldn't fall asleep. When she did, she was haunted by a very handsome, very familiar ghost.

~~~~Dream~~~~

The sky is dark. It's down-pouring. Relena can't even see her hands in front of her face. Then, a familiar figure placed its hands on her waist. When she turned around, her ghost just smiled at her. Relena was happy to be in its arms.

" Heero." She whispered as she was pulled closer to the figure's body. Then, it became bright. Now, the figure wasn't in the shadows anymore. Now, he was holding her tight and close to him. Relena felt so safe. She closed her eyes and laid her head on her soldier's chest. When she opened her eyes, she was alone again.

Only, this time, she was on a battlefield. It was filled with lifeless bodies and destroyed mobile suits. Then, she heard the click of the safety of a gun. Then, a shot was heard. She saw her perfect soldier fall to the ground. She ran to him and held him tight. Slowly, his body became still. Tears ran down her cheeks. When she looked up from the dead body, the gun was now pointed at her. She closed her eyes awaiting death. Tears were flowing down her cheeks. Then, there was silence.

When she opened her eyes, she saw four young men walking toward her. It was the other four-gundam pilots. As they got closer, a bomb went off. The four pilots were thrown into the air.

~~~~~End of dream~~~~

"Nooooo!" Relena yelled as she sat up in her bed. When she looked at her clock, it read 2:30.

'It's so early' Relena said to herself as she got out of bed. She couldn't bare to have the same dream she had had for the past few nights. So, she decided to go for a walk in her garden.
