Forgotten Love: Pt. 2
"You gotta go after her man!" Duo exclaimed. " She's a total knockout! Damn! Why didn't I Live on L1? Are they all like that there? Quatre lets go there for a vacation. The minority better be like her or I'll be pissed though! Makes me wonder-what was she like in bed? Sweet? Hard? Fast? Heero! Why are you still here? Go to L1 before she finds a new man!"
"Listening as you make an ass out of yourself-that's why I'm here," Heero scowled as he backed out of Quatres' reach.
" You mean nothing every happened between you two?" Duo asked, incredulous. Then his face softened as he walked over to Heero and cradled his head in his arms. " Awwwww.Heero got no loving..." Heero's upper lip twitched O_o; but he didn't move away. Duo pulled his face up so he could look him in the eye. "Did you at least get it on with her?"
The next movement made by Heero was too fast to see in detail, but Duo ended up on the floor clutching his head and his stomach at the same time. " You blockhead! That's none of your damn business!" Heero snarled as he turned and stalked towards the hallway.
" So I take it..that you didn't?" Duo wheezed on the floor. Wufei peered down at him nonchalantly.
"You got what you deserved Maxwell." Duo whimpered but didn't say anything.
From within the depths of his closet Heero pulled out a plain cream- colored shoebox with 6 years of dust on its top. He swiped his hand across the top and took off a lot of it, then opened it. The top item was a picture of the two of them on Keiko's 15th birthday. She was winking and smiling so sweetly at the camera with a still-wrapped present in her hands. She was sitting in his lap, with arms wrapped around her almost possessively. He had his face pressed against her bare neck, revealed by the navy blue sundress that she wore.
He held the picture to himself and felt a faint bit of sadness enter his nearly stoic self. But the feeling passed and he set the picture down beside him. Beneath the photo was her folded scarf, the color of the churning sea. That was what she had worn when he first met her..
AC 194 The artificial wind had been awful that day on L1. It sent flurries of snow all over without warning and sent people scurrying for shelter in their homes or in shops along the streets. It was cold outside; a cold that bit at uncovered flesh. The sky was a bleak gray color, soulless and un- helping to anyone and everyone who braved the weather for even a short time.
Heero's feet crunched softly in the fresh now and ice that lay scattered across the sidewalks. He wore very little clothing-his normal winter attire: Jeans, green tank top and his navy windbreaker. The majority of his body was numb, but he didn't feel it, he was too concerned on what his next mission might be from the good doctor. Whether or not all of his training would finally be put to use and he would descend to Earth. A blast of warm air thawed him slightly as the electric doors to a grocery store swung open with a WHOOSH. A chunky lady so overly dressed you couldn't tell what she was-other than a large bundle of clothing- entered the store, just as another person (who was recognizable as a human) was hurrying out with a small brown bag of groceries beneath her arm. She noticed Heero and gave him a small smile of greeting, he didn't return it, instead he kept walking, she kept her pace along side the silent boy.
"Aren't you cold?" she asked suddenly in a soft voice.
" No," Heero replied bluntly. " You'd better not be following me."
She smiled. " I'm not, my apartment is up this way a few more blocks." She noticed his lower lip trembling slightly. " Listen, are you sure your aren't cold? Your lips are quivering."
A gust of wind pelted their faces with flakes of snow, and gave the girl a violent chill. She closed her eyes and wiped the snow from her face on the scarf that was placed over her shoulders.
"Why didn't you just drive to the store? That seems more sensible to me than getting frostbite out here," Heero said.
"I should say the same for you, you being out here and all. I didn't drive because of the traffic, plus, on these streets, the roads get very icy," her foot slid out from under her but she caught herself before she fell.
"Seems like everything's icy," he pointed out monotonously.
" You could say that," the girl replied. " By the way, my name's Keiko."
"Hn," Heero replied.
Keiko raised an eyebrow. " Apparently even the people on these street are icy too," she remarked grumpily and quickened her pace so she passed the silent boy. Keiko was no more than 10 feet ahead of Heero when she stepped on more ice, jerked around comically in an effort to keep her balance, then toppled to the cold hard sidewalk, her bag spilling its continents.
When Heero got to her, she was sitting up and trying to put everything back into her bag. " Hey, can you help me with some of these things?" Keiko asked gently.
He glared down at her, for daring to ask him to do so trifle a thing. But as he stared into her emerald eyes he felt something pass over him. Her eyes were huge green pools of light and emotion; they looked up at him so pleadingly. Just for help, nothing more, they seemed to say. Heero felt a tiny -almost unnoticeable- shiver race down his spine, rippling like fire. The walls surrounding him crumbled in that very instant he knelt down to help her.
Heero was once again on his feet and Keiko had just put the last item (Chips Ahoy cookies) into the bag, and was turning to thank him when a car drove by -tires squealing- and sent a spray of wet slushy snow raining down on them.
O_O; " This is so not my day," she sighed, getting to her feet as Heero handed her the bag of food and turned to leave.
"Hey! Wait a sec!" Keiko called. " I never got your name"-She reached out and grabbed his shoulder. Heero spun around so forcefully that Keiko was knocked back, there was a glare on his face as he swung his fist around as though to hit her-but stopped a few inches from her face.
Keiko let out her breath softly. "What was that about?" she asked timidly but didn't hesitate for an answer. " Oh, you're all wet. That car must have gotten you more than me. You'll catch a cold for sure-" the girl took off her scarf and placed it gently around Heeros' neck-" You can have my scarf if you'd like.."
"Why are you doing this?" Heero inquired when she stepped back. " What do you care?"
" I care because you're a fellow human being, and I try to look out for my friends and acquaintances," she replied simply. " Now, can you please tell me your name? I like this scarf and I think I'll want it back someday."
The corner of Heero's mouth twitched slightly. " Ah, the beginnings of a smile I see. So, your name?"
Heero frowned again. " My name is Heero Yuy."
A look of confusion dashed across Keiko's face. "The martyrs name? How interesting." She smiled. " Thank you Heero. I expect that scarf back one day, until then though, try to keep it in one piece." Keiko turned and started walking down the sidewalk away from Heero.
Something deep within Heero stirred and began to awaken a feeling that had been dormant for so long he couldn't remember it. Go after her, his mind told him in a voiceless whisper. And suddenly, he was obeying that faint voice. His feet pounded down the slick concrete of the sidewalk and his eyes followed Keiko as she rounded a corner. "Keiko" he tried to call her name but it came out in a monotone. "Keiko!"
"Huh?" she turned around with a blank look on her face. It turned to one of confusion when she saw him. "Heero? What is it?"
"I..." Heero was suddenly at a loss for words. For the first time in his life, the one time he wished to speak, he couldn't. It seemed eons had passed before he managed to say anything. " I um, wanted to walk you home, since you said you lived around here. That way I can bring back your scarf tomorrow and I'll be able to help you if you slip on some ice again."
"You wont try anything if you see where I live will you?" she eyed him suspiciously.
"I've been trained to follow orders, so unless I was ordered to hurt you, I wouldn't do any harm to you."
"You've...been trained?"
Heero froze. "Just forget it. I won't hurt you, I promise."
Keiko smiled then. " Alright then, you can walk me home. Would you like some tea or something hot when we get there?"
"Sure. Why not?" Heero replied after a short pause.
"Ok then! Oh, here," Keiko shoved the bag into his arms. " You offered to walk me home, the least you can do is be a gentleman and carry those for me. " ^_^
*blink blink * Heero looked confused as Keiko began walking off with her groceries in his arms. She glanced back and saw him still rooted to the spot. In mock scorn she called, "Whadaya still standing there for? C'mon!"
His look of confusion fled from his face, replaced by a small smile that touched his eyes immensely, and he followed her, happily.

"Heero? Yo Heero."
Heero opened his eyes to meet Duo's face. He was slumped over the box of photos and whatnot, partially in the closet. Apparently he had fallen asleep. "What Duo?" he asked groggily as he sat up.
"I was wondering where you went, you disappeared 6 hours ago. I was wondering whether you had left or not."
"Left?"
"To go get Keiko?" Duo coached. " You know where she lives right?"
Heero frowned. " She should still live on L1.."
Duo cringed. " L1 is a freaky place days, with that serial killer. She doesn't live in the B-4 quadrant does she?" Heero shook his head and Duo smiled. " Good then, cuz you and I, and the others if they want to come and its alright with you, we're going on a lil' trip."
"What do you mean?"
Duo's smile broadened. " I figured you hadn't left yet, so I took the pleasure of getting us shuttle arrangements to L1. 'Thank you very much, Duo.'"
Heero gave him a wry look. " I'll thank you when we get there."
"So you are going to go after her?!"
Heero gave the beginnings of a smile. " I've waited too long Duo, I need her. So I'm going to get her, no matter what."
