The True Past

Chapter 2

" But something is wrong with Heero? I don't know what's the matter." She cried. Hera jumped onto the dresser and put her paw on Makoto's head.

" I don't think it's anything you did. Maybe its cause he is going..." Hera stopped herself, realizing what she was about to say. Makoto looked up at her in confusion.

"What? Where is he going?" She asked. Hera got a nervous look on her face.

"Nothing, maybe he is just a little jealous." She saved herself there. Makoto walked over to her bed and got in and took out a book called 'Grimm's Fairy Tales'.

"What would he have to be jealous of? I mean I have known him since I was born and no matter what, he is my bestest friend, besides you. Endy and Mina are my best friends but I just met them." She sighed. Hera then jumped on the bed and laid on her favorite pillow.

"Well, maybe you should tell him that next time he comes to visit. Sometimes people need to hear that from their friends." She said sleepily. " You should put that book away and get some sleep. Today was a long day." Makoto put down her book and turned out her light.

" Good Night, Hera. I love you." She whispered drifting into sleep.

"Me too." The cat yawned and with they both feel fast asleep.

*******Two months later*******

The two months had gone by very fast for Heero and he still hadn't been able to tell Makoto anything and it was the night before he was to leave. Princess Minako and Prince Endymion came over every week and once a while Makoto would go to one of their palaces. She took Hera's advice and told Heero how much their friendship was to her. He felt better, but still a little jealous. Tonight Makoto's family and his family were throwing a surprise going away party and they had invited Minako and Endymion. The only people who didn't know about the party were Makoto and Heero. Makoto was getting ready for dinner in her room when there was a knock on the door. She called to see who it was.

"Who is it?"

"It's me, Mina." She called happily through the door. Makoto rushed to the door and let her in.

"What are you doing here?" She asked surprised .The other girl looked at her in shock. 'Heero still hasn't told her. I mean me and Endy even knew.'

"Um...Your parents invited Endy and me." She covered her shock with a smile.

"Cool, Endy is here. I just have to finish putting my hair up and then I'll be down." She ran to her dresser. She put up her hair in to a braided bun that had hair flowing out of it. She then picked up Hera, put her on her shoulder and then grabbed Mina's arm and ran from the room. They made it downstairs and found Endy and Heero talking. They walked up to the two and said hello.

"Hey, Sakura." Endy said while Heero made a small face.

"Hi, Endy, Heero." She smiled. Mina looked at Endymion and made a face that said 'we need to talk'. He nodded and started to interrupt Heero and Makoto's conversation. "Excuse Mina and me for a second, I just remembered that my mother wanted to speak to us." The other two nodded as Mina and Endy walked away into a side hall and stopped.

" What's the matter?" Endy asked worried.

"Heero still hasn't told Sakura about his leaving." She spoke. His eyes widened with surprise and shock. 'I can't believe it and he is leaving tomorrow.'

" We can't tell her. I'll talk to Heero." He replied. "But, Endy we have..." she started.

"No. He has to." He interrupted. She nodded sadly. They started to walk back, when they spotted Heero walking towards them.

"I'll talk to him, so you can go ahead and join Sakura" he whispered to her. She nodded and left. Endy walked up to Heero.

"Hey, Sakura wanted me to get you two." Heero smiled.

"Mina just went to go join her. Look Heero, we need to talk about Sakura." He replied.

"What about Sakura?" He put emphases on the name.

"You haven't told her about you leaving." he replied, hearing the spite in Heero's voice.

" Yeah, so. That none of your business." he growled.

"As long as Sakura is my best friend, it is my business." he defended. Heero got really angry and was now clenching his fists.

"You have no right to call her Sakura! I have been calling her since she was first born" he spat, "And then you and your fancy title came here and took that away from me!" Endy was surprised. 'So that's what this is all about'

"I never meant to take her away from you. I want to be friends with her too" He began, "She is just so sweet and cheerful. I'm sorry." Heero was surprised now. He was about ready to beat up this guy and then he apologizes.

"But please Heero, you have to tell her." he pleaded with him.

"Tell me what?" They spun around to see Makoto and Minako step out from the shadows.

"How long were you back there?" Heero asked.

" Let me see, from where you said that Endy has no right in calling me Sakura." she stated madly.

"Maybe Mina and me should get to dinner." Endy grabbed Mina's hand and started to walk away.

"No, stay. If you know what Heero hasn't told me, stay." She stopped them. They stood next to each other as Makoto approached Heero. "What were you going to tell me, Heero?"

"Nothing." He stated coldly.

"Getting into a fight with one of my best friends isn't about 'Nothing'" she replied angry. Mina and Endy were shocked. Heero and Makoto never talked like that to each other before.

"It doesn't matter. It's not like your going to miss me with your Endy over there." he shot back.

"Miss you? What do you mean?" she asked calming down.

"Well, if you must know, tonight is my last night here. I'm leaving in the morning for Knight Training." He yelled. Makoto was struck with horror and her mouth gaped open.

"What? You can't?" she struggled. Hera just came up and was about to announce that dinner was ready, when she saw the look on Makoto's face. 'Something isn't right'

"That's right. I'm leaving for knight training." He repeated coolly. Makoto just stood there horrified and then tears began to trickle down her face.

"But.what about me?" she asked.

"What about you? You still have 'Endy' and Mina and Hera. You don't need me." He spat. But then he regretted saying that seeing the look of hurt on her face.

"No, that's not true. You were my first best friend. You were one there when I fell and got hurt. You were the one who held my hand when I was afraid of meeting Endymion and Minako. And now its nothing to you?" she asked reaching out to him. He only turned and looked the other way.

"I have a duty to serve you as my princess." Was all he said. That was what hit her the hardest. She gathered up her dress and ran from the room sobbing. Minako ran after her calling her name. Endymion walked up to Heero and faced him.

"You jerk. And I thought you were her best friend." he glared.

"Yeah, well things change." He replied coldly. Endy shook his head and followed the way Minako and Makoto left out of. Hera walked up to Heero and noticed the boy had his head down and tears were rolling downs his cheeks. She walked away to go check on Makoto.

Makoto didn't show up for dinner and refused to eat. Minako stayed with her, as did Hera. Endymion went down and ate but glared at Heero the whole time. Heero hardly ate as a feeling of regret consumed his body. After dinner Heero went up to Makoto's room and knocked on the door. Endymion answered it, quickly stepped out and shut the door.

"What do you want? Don't you think you hurt her enough?" He ground through his teeth. Heero was going to retort but sighed and ran a hand through his hair.

"I just wanted to see her before I left and say sorry." He replied.

"Well, she doesn't want to see you right now. So maybe you should just." He was cut off as he felt a hand on his shoulder. He turned to see Minako with a sad smile on her face.

"She is asking for you." She replied. Endymion nodded and headed into the room and shut the door behind him. Heero only looked at Minako.

"I suppose you want me to leave and that she never wants to talk to me again. " he turned.

"Heero, she doesn't hate you and I don't want you to go. I just have a few things to say and ask." He nodded as she continued, " Why did you wait so long to tell her?"

"I thought if I put it off she wouldn't care as much because she has you guys."

"But like she said, we weren't there for her we just met her a few months ago. Besides, we could never replace you no matter how hard we try." Minako replied softly, "But what you did to her was cruel. I'm not going to lecture you but I just wanted to say is that you shouldn't have done that. At least if you told her in advance, she wouldn't have been so hurt."

"I know. I know I shouldn't be asking but can I see her?" he asked.

"She doesn't wish to see you now, but maybe in the morning?" she asked hoping that he would come.

"I'll try but I have to leave early. Be fore I go would you give this to her for me, it was meant to be given to her at dinner but understanding the circumstances." he was cut off by her.

"I'll make sure she gets it." Minako said taking the small box wrapped in silver paper tied with a green bow. She hugged him and he returned it.

"Good-bye" he replied and walked away. She walked to the door and watched his retreating form walk down the stairs. She opened the door and walked over to Makoto's bed hiding the present in her dress.

"How are you feeling?" she asked Makoto. Makoto's eyes were puffing and she had tearstains on her cheeks.

"A little better." She replied sniffling. Minako smiled a small smile.

"Well your mom said I could stay the night to be here for you." She told the depressed girl. Makoto smiled glumly.

"Thanks."

"What about me?" Endymion asked. Both of the girls giggled a little.

"Your mother wanted me to tell you that you are leaving and they want you downstairs." she replied. Endymion pouted and pretended to cry. The girls giggled again. He walked over to Makoto and kissed her forehead and hugged her.

"I'll try to come tomorrow." He replied, as she nodded. He then went to hug Minako.

"Thank you." The girl replied softly.

"Call me if anything happens." He told her. Minako nodded her head and said good-bye.

"Good night." He said leaving the room. Minako went over and walked to the bed and sat. She reached into her dress pocket and pulled out the box.

"Heero asked me to give this to you." She said handing it to Makoto. She was surprised and just stared at it.

"What is it?"

"I don't know, he just told me to give it to you and he said he was sorry. He also said he would try to come tomorrow before he had to leave." She said smiling a little. Makoto just stared at it and placed it on her bedside table.

"Well, I guess we should get some sleep." Makoto said scooting over in her queen-sized bed. Minako slipped into her nightgown and got into the bed. She turned out the light and turned her back to Makoto.

"Goodnight, Makoto." She replied before she fell asleep. Today was a tiring day. Makoto nodded though she was not tired. She sighed and got out of the bed trying not to wake Minako. She grabbed the present and went out to her balcony. She sat on the ledge and looked out at the moon. She closed her eyes and made a wish.

"Please protect him." She whispered. She then opened her eyes and looked at the package in her hands. She cradled as if it were a small child and carefully began to untie the ribbon. She placed the ribbon in her pocket to keep. She then began to tear away the paper and inside was a black box. She opened the box to reveal two pink rose earrings that sparkled when the moon touched them. Also there was a tiny gold chain and on the chain was a small gold heart locket with a rose imprint. She opened the locket and saw on one side was a picture of him and on the other was Hera. She closed the locket and looked on the back where there was a message in script. It read: We'll always be in your Heart. Love Always,

Heero and Hera

Tears started to burn her eyes as she put the necklace and earrings on. She finally let her tears go and look at the moon.

"I'm sorry, Heero. You will always be my best friend." She cried. She got up and walked inside to her bed and got in it silently. 'I have to be awake for Heero when he arrives.' She thought as she finally succumbed to her sleep.

*******The Next Morning******

"Good Morning, your Majesties. I would like to ask if I may see Makoto this morning." Heero bowed in front of the King and Queen in his new uniform. He wore hunter green pants, black boots, a white-collar shirt with a black tie, and a jacket that was hunter green trimmed in silver and an embroidered dragon over his heart.

"I'm sorry, Heero. But she has not woken yet." The Queen smiled sadly. He nodded. He stood and began to salute as the King and Queen rose from their thrones.

"Thank you. Please tell her that I am sorry for what happened to her yesterday and that I wish her luck in life." He replied in a monotone, which surprised all in the room. He had never spoken like this before.

"I will make sure she gets the message. Good luck in your training and please come visit us." The King replied also saluting. Heero nodded and bowed once more before following his parents out of the room.

"She will be upset that she missed him." Replied a small voice. They turned their heads to see Hera.

"Don't worry. She will be depressed at first but when her brother is born she will be happy again." The Queen smiled.

*******Later That Morning*******

"Cause I want nothing more than to sit outside Heaven's door and listen to you breathing is where I want to be." Makoto was singing to herself as she was combing her hair. She tied the ribbon from Heero, up into her ponytail. She then went to her door and rushed down the stairs.

"I hope he comes soon." She giggled. She slowed down as she approached the throne room's doors. She took a deep breath and opened them only to see her parents and Hera. She bowed out of respect.

"Has Heero arrived yet?" she asked her parents. They both had sad looks on their faces. She saw that and knew the answer.

"I'm sorry, dear. He left about an hour ago." The Queen spoke quietly. Makoto shook her head and turned.

"Makoto" Hera began but was stopped as Makoto ran from the room. She ran as fast as she could through the front doors of the palace and ran to the front gate. She ran out into the street as it began to rain.

"HEERO!!! HEERO!!!!!" she screamed as loud as she could but it was no use he was probably already at his new home. She collapsed to her knees and cried loudly as her the ribbon from her hair fell out. She gabbed it and held onto it for all she was worth. She looked up at the moon and cried harder.

"Why, Heero? Please come back!!!" she screamed as her voice became harsh. The rain came down harder and faster and soaked her body, but she didn't care. She had lost her best friend and might never see him again.

**********************************************************************

Well that was kinda corny. Don't worry there will be more when I can come up with more ideas. And Heero will come back. Oh yeah Li, Makoto's brother will show up in the next chapter or the one after that cause I was too lazy to write about it in this one. Anyways hope you liked this. Oh also the song Makoto was singing was "Breathing" by LifeHouse (they kick ass). I'm going to write a songfic about Heero/Makoto with this song so look for that. Well I better go before you get bored. Ja Ne
