Chapter 3
Heero stared out the window of the jet he flew on. He was going back to the states, back to his world and back to his love, Relena... it had been almost a year since he had seen her, held her close to him. Sighing Heero remembered the smell of her hair and the smile she used to give him.
"only hours until I can see you." He whispered to the window. Running a hand thru his wild hair Heero winced in pain as his hand ran over the spot on his head covered in a bandage. Looking at his reflection in the window Heero saw a tired eyed boy with dark brown hair that fell in shags over his dark Prussian eyes. Over his olive skin was a series of bandages from the wrap around his forehead to the patches of swab taped on to his cheek. His eyes where surrounded by dark rings and blue-ish, purple blotches that scattered over his reflection. Visions filled his head of the beating he had received, of the pain he had endured to get this far.
"Sir? Can I help you?" a cabin girl asked. Her long blonde hair flowed past her shoulders and framed her hair face almost exactly like Relena's.
"Not unless you can cure a broken heart." Heero replied half heartedly. The Lady was one of the medical attendants from the flight crew. She giggled and sat down in the empty seat next to him. Taking out a small kit from under the seat she pulled out clean gauze.
" I may not be able to do that, but I can re-wrap your head with these." She said slowly unwrapping his bandages. Heero sat puzzled and asked
"Is it bleeding again?"
Nodding the nurse/attendant continued to re-wrap and clean. She spoke to him in a soft voice.
"So are you heading back to the states like the others?"
He nodded ,this specific jet was a medic care transport. Four other men where aboard. Each with various wounds and each being sent back to a loved one.
"So what's your story? Who did you make it thru for?" She asked tucking in the last of the gauze. Taking out new patches and antibiotic gel the attendant set to work as Heero mearly stared at his lap.
"Your Heero Yuy aren't you? The one called the perfect solider? I'm Yasmin." Yasmin the nurse said cheerfully still tending to her work. Seeing the surprised look in his dark eyes Yasmin explained
" rumors get around in the Preventers group. I've heard about how you escaped and how your plane had gone down....YOUR partner was looking for you months ago! I remember, I was the one who took his report..." Yasmin said chatting. She reminded him of Duo in a way.
pull your self together Heero... he thought now is not a time to take a trip down memory lane...
Heero was shaken from his thoughts as a jolt of pain ran thru his lower neck and upper back.
"OH I'm so sorry!" Yasmin exclaimed as she saw his body stiffen. " you know, you where the most critically monitored case we've had so far...the doctors say you should still be in that coma and You really shouldn't be up and walking...your really some thing. Months before expected recover you tried to leave the hospital...not that I
can blame you, god only knows what you went thru in those prisons, I've heard the Gorilla camps are like hell...inalltheyearsI'vebeenamedicI'veneverbeenwithacasethat...." All of the words that Yasmin said started to slur into one and Heero dozed off in exhaustion. Unwanted memories returned to the 20 year old's mind.
The war was over, he worked as a preventer and he and Relena were deeply in love. That day she had been about to go to classes when he had come over.
"Heero!" she shrieked with joy. Wrapping her arms around his neck she kissed his cheek.
"surprised?" he asked stepping into the apartment. It was exactly as it had been when he had designed it.
"pleasantly so! Dot! Look who's here!" she yelled down the hall, to Dorothy.
The other blonde girl barrled down the hall gave Heero a quick hug and ran out the door.
"We're soooooo late..." she muttered.
Laughing Heero picked up Relena's bag and walked her out to his car. "Here. I'll drive you." Heero offered opening the door to his corvet.
Sitting down inside the two took off, Relena reveled the time alone with Heero, grinning from ear to ear. But Heero's mind was preoccupied with what he was going to have to tell Her. "Relena...I'm not sure how to tell you this... but..."
The smile on Relena's face faded and she started to worry. "what is it?" she asked
"I'm going to war. The preventers have a new mission. It seems that there are some guerilla groups that we have to deal with..."
Relena held her breathe. "how long hee-chan?' she asked again as she took his hand in hers.
"only a few months." Heero responded. He remembered wiping away the tears on her face and the final night they had spent together before he left. She made him promise to return and now finally he could keep that promise. Deeper and deeper into the dream of his hellish experiences did Heero's mind dive....
