Oh, Boy! Oh, Boy! Chapter eight. Most of you who read my stories have probably caught on to the pattern I usually write in. This story to Another Time, Another Place to To Love A Beast. But I just wanted to finish this story, I realize I ended at quite a hectic place.
Okay updating is taking me awhile, but I have been more busy than ever.
First is going to school, followed by homework.(Why in the Hell did I decide to take two Honors Classes?)
But then my family has also been hanging tobacco.(Which for those of you who don't know consists of taking speared tobacco plants and moving them to a wagon, driving to a barn, then handing the heavy stalks up to the men in the barn loft. Which seems so much higher by the end of the day!) And I'm not just doing my family's but also my Uncle's.(Who has two fields....But who is also paying me. ::Sly Grin::)
I missed fourth period one day and first period the next and had to make up the work.(My Honors Biology and Algebra.)(Not to mention I am a world renowned procrastinator.)
I missed it because Wednesday evening from 1 P.M to 4A.m I went to Nashville to see Mamma Mia at the Performing arts center.
So..Yeah. If nothing else I offer you my apologies for being lazy.
Alright, enough of my complaining I better hurry and answer reviews and write the story because this weekend I have to help my uncle with his other field.
Also, Just to get it straight:
I, Aphrodite's Scribe, do not own or share stocks in any anime. This therefore includes, Gundam Wing, and Sailor Moon.
This will be a song chapter therefore I do not own Ashlee Simpson's song: Undiscovered.
Reviews:
Aino Yuy aka Usagi-Hater- Yeah....I didn't realize it until...well until I read your E-Mail. It should be fixed when you read this chapter for the future readers. It seems that lately I'm usually messing WAY up on my stories. Underlining and putting up the wrong chapter. Sheeesh. I need to be more careful, ne? Thank you so much, always looking forward to hearing what you have to say. Please enjoy the next-to-last chapter.
Chibi Horsewoman- ::Jumps far away:: Do you have mind reading capabilities? Alright I admit I was considering the idea, but later ruled it out. And was quite shocked when I read your review. Lol
Jewels14-Yep, and as we all know that isn't good. Yes, it is his fault, but in his defense he was only trying to protect her. Thank you for the review.
Venus Of Love-Lol, thank you. I was writing and accidentally put "how much he missed her" twice. I laughed at myself and thought of how funny that was, before exaggerating it a bit and sharing my humor with the rest of you guys. Read on to find out, and dont forget to "stay tuned" for the epilogue.
Mystic Moon Empress -::Scratched head:: I'm notoriously known for those. Thanks for the review!
Arella Hallo-::Scratched head." Lol. Not quite sure that would work too well for Heero. Thank you so much and thanks for the review.
Black-Fire Eclipse-You and Chibi Horsewoman should join a Psychic Club. As shocked as I was to read her review, I was even more so to read yours. Are my story lines that predictable? -Lol- Thanks for the review. ::Looks behind her back in paranoia::
Darknight Shadow-Lol, I know how you feel.(About feeling sorry for Heero AND being crazy.) Guess it runs in the Tribe's veins. Thanks for reviewing.
Okay, here we go. Are you sure your ready for this? Probably will have some angsty-ness.

Heero's body was filled with a rage borne only from the deepest of jealousy's. A feeling felt by many men before, clutched his heart with it's icy cold fingers. All he wanted to was strangle the boy's neck.
That was his Minako, no one else's. The ownership he had never realized he had until now elevated his rage even more than it had been.
His eyes narrowed to mere slits as he glared at the boy's back with all his might, hands gripping the side of his cart in a death-like vice. Minako's face was flushed, a breeze blowing her hair into her face. Her eyes glanced his way quickly, before looking back and then coming slowly back to his face.
His mind processed that she was looking back at him because she recognized his face, when in reality, what he didn't know was she was looking back at him because of the rage in his eyes.
The boy in front of her, sensing the heat of his gaze on his back combined with the shocked look upon her face turned around filling Heero with even more rage. The face was equally as recognized as Minako's. The slanted Chinese eyes, combined with the tight ponytail and rigid posture brought his mind to a quick recognition: Wufei.
As soon as the thought was processed brought a frenzied thought came to him to him. Wufei was a traitor, and traitors were killed. The thought combined with his imagination and sated his ire only the slightest bit.
The man in control, who in all reality had no idea what was happening above him, pressed the switch and sent Heero's cart down and Minako's up. But that wasn't enough to stop Heero Yuy. With a primal snarl he balanced on the side of the cart and jumped with such balance that Trowa, had he seen it, would have been amazed.
His fingers barely grasped over the side of the cart holding his new found enemy. Pulling himself up quickly, he jumped into the cart. His eyes came to land on Wufei with such an intense gaze that Wufei visibly flinched.
Looking very much like the Grim Reaper his hair blowing in the wind of the on-coming storm. The moon glared brilliantly behind him, further increasing his insanely enraged appearance.
0000
Wufei watched as Heero jumped towards their cart, barely catching it before pulling himself up and staring him down. His threatening look causing Wufei flinch.
The humiliation of cowering before an opponent brought Wufei from his startled thoughts. And then bringing him back to the plan.
"Heero-" He said in a condescending voice," Care for a seat?"
He scooted closer to Minako and patted the seat beside him. Showing a cocky smile, he wrapped an arm around Minako who hadn't moved since her eyes had connected with Heero's. Her face was quite pale and her body was rigid as her eyes unfocused, all of this didn't catch Heero's angry mind.
Heero growled low in his throat in response.
"Guess not?"
"Die, traitor." Heero said, lunging forward.
00000
"Die, traitor." Heero said, lunging forward.
He swung his fist, connecting it solidly with Wufei's jaw hearing the "traitor" grunt with surprised shock. Not even giving him time to respond he grabbed his shirt collar and threw him on the small space between the seat and the rails. He began to beat the surprised Shenlong Pilot with such a fury it was shocking.
Of course he could have pulled out the small handgun in his back pocket at the small of his back, but that wouldn't of given as much of a smug feeling.
Heero was always so emotionless, and then in one instant was showing so much emotion. He was so caught up in his raging reverie it felt as though nothing could pull him from his intense state of mind. But he wasn't thinking of the source of his channeled anger, until it came back to him with vivid clarity.
"Heero!"
His punches slowed slightly, as the cool drops of love began to hit the fire of jealousy.
"Heero, please." The voice somehow managed to sob out.
His punches were much slower than they had been, and not as hard. But they continued on as the drops became a healing rain, putting the fire completely out.
"HEERO!" This time the voice was distant.
His stopped hitting Wufei completely and looked at the girl cowering in the corner.
She was still sitting in her seat, but her knee's were pulled up under her. Her eyes were red, her cheeks tear-stained.
Reaching out her hand she sought comfort in him. Asking, begging, pleading with him to show her his humanity. Hope was shining through her eyes, but he couldn't indulge in that.
Right now he felt too hurt. The betrayal had cut through him like a knife, pulling him back into his calm exterior. Turning his back to her he jumped down in his cart, just before jumping the rest of the distance to the ground.
Everyone on the ground parted for him to get through. The man who was controlling the Ferris Wheel had pulled his coat from the booth and left, mumbling about needing a break from all of these hallucinations. And then something about people swimming in the Love Tunnel and jumping from Ferris Wheel Cart's.
Minako watched him go, from on top of the carnival ride, before coming to one conclusion: She would have to go after him.
0000
Rei sat in the booth at the restaurant with the other three senshi and pilots.
The others were laughing, but Rei somehow felt nervous. She had always had good senses and right now they were telling her something was wrong. Something in the atmosphere was wrong, the carnival seemed to have a dark cloud looming over it.
Turning her head back to her friends, she listened to their conversation, occasionally sipping at her tea. The tea helped to calm her on-edge feelings. Every sip warming her insides in a comforting way.
Looking up, her comfort was torn away quickly. She was the first to notice the battered Wufei limp into the Cafe'. But, upon noticing his lack of Minako she looked at him with hope. Only to get a sad shake of his head.
Tears welled up in her eyes. Poor Minako. Poor, Poor, Minako. Expectantly waiting for Minako she began to decide what to tell her. She was deciding between Keep trying and there's other fish in the sea, as Wufei shook his head sadly for the others.
They gave about the same response as Rei. Stubbornly holding in tears and thinking of what to tell her. When Ami, ever the practical one, said," Where is Minako?"
Wufei looked at the ground, barely able to see it through his already swollen eye. "She went after Heero."
"Not if I get to him first," Makoto said half-heartedly while standing.
"No."
Everyone had looked to Usagi, who had gotten deathly quiet upon hearing the bad news.
"Huh?" Rei said in confusion.
"I said no, leave her alone. Sometimes that's all you need."
Usagi was remembering when Beryl had taken Mamoru from her. The most comforting thing for her was to be left alone. She weakly smiled, remembering how Minako had come over and brushed her hair out. She had such a good heart, she deserved happiness.
But then again she seemed to be the most cursed as far as love went. Quite ironic for the senshi of love. All of the scouts were well represented for their planets, Rei- a strong warrior, Usagi-surrounded by friends and caring, Ami- practical and smart, and so on. But Minako? Minako seemed to almost be cursed, and seemed quite aware of it.
Makoto sat back down, sighing in defeat.
Rei took the last sip of her tea, before ordering another.
It was going to be a long night.
00000
Heero walked down the road slowly. Taking many twists and turns, not paying attention to where he was going.
His thought were centered on one thing:Minako. Of course they had been since the first day he had met the Happy Go Lucky girl. Always smiling and trying to keep everyone's morale up.
Running his hands through his already disheveled hair, he sighed. He would have to forget about her. Forget about everything.
Take it back, take it all back now
That's all he could do. He had already confirmed the need in his mind, told her it was over, and left her. But then she was always on his mind. He was reminded of her when he saw a sunny day, a breathtaking sunset, a beautiful flower. The color orange particularly reminded him of her, which was bad because marigolds were Relena's favorite flowers and surrounded her house.
And lately he couldn't quite dreaming of their kiss.
The things I gave, like the taste of my kiss on your lips,
That kiss......
That kiss was the most breathtaking thing that had ever happened to him.
It hadn't been planned. In fact he had decided on inviting her to the park and then telling her it was over quite coldly and leaving. But Minako could never let things be that easy. No, she had to come looking so stunning. Golden hair streaming in the wind like a banner, blue eyes sparkling in sunshine that was somehow working behind the clouds. Then his eyes had been drawn to those lips.
Those damn pink lips. Covered in strawberry lip gloss, which further enticed his interests of what it would be like to taste those lips. Then it had just happened, he had kissed her, and she hadn't tried to stop him. The rest was history.
I miss that now
But lately his mind had come to wonder what it would be like to kiss those lips again. They could've been his, with the rest of Minako. He could've accepted that hand and been forgiven, but he hadn't.
Realizing he was implying he was to blame he stiffened instantly. The anger stirring within him. She was the one who had went on and fell in love with someone else. Hell, they hadn't even been broken up that long.
And after he was only trying to keep her safe. God knows she didn't have Relena's perseverance. Relena wouldn't leave him the hell alone. They had tried a relationship, but it hadn't worked out. They both needed different things, so they decided to stay friends.
And, admittedly so, they were friends. But, somehow he just couldn't keep Minako close enough to be her friend. That would be a mission in itself, especially now. They could be, as Duo would call it, friends "with privileges."
I can't try any harder than I do
But he had tried to protect her, tried so damn hard! He was still trying. As long as they weren't together she wouldn't get kidnapped or shot in the back of the head or even... No, no one could ever hurt such a wonderful person as Minako.
He had told her they were breaking up, but not why. Just told her it was over, as gruffly and coldly as he could.
All the reasons I gave, excuses I made for you
He had told her nothing but just plain, It's over. And had she listened? To a fault, already moving on. Already letting another man kiss those strawberry flavored lips.
But now he wondered. Was it truly over? After this occurrence would she hate him forever? And what of Wufei, he had been beaten pretty bad. And why the hell was he worrying over it, it's over. He thought, kicking the alley wall in anger. Walking past a trash can he hardly noticed as it caught and wripped a strip of his jacket off.
Are broken in two
Well it didn't matter now. She had moved on, which was what he needed to do. At least, forget about her. What else could he do? If he didn't do that, nothing good could come to him or her, for that matter.
Coming to the end of the alley, he once again merged into the street. It had quite a few drunks in it, they had come from the club just up the road.
When he realized what that meant he blinked his eyes a few times. Well, there it was. The park where he had first met her, in all its wonder. Crossing the street to it, he quickly walked over to the swing that he had been in the first time. The first time they had met. When he had caught her in his arms and held her there. Unwillingly, but still he had held her.
He ran his fingers over the cool metal of the chains, supporting the seat. There were at least five different swing sets in this whole park, and he had always chosen the one farthest from the park opening.
Sitting down in it, he used his strong legs to push it back and forth. He watched his feet push down in the dried up dirt. Pushing harder he watched as his feet came further off the ground. Then he began to push harder, leaning with the swing and was soon soaring to new heights.
The wind blew his face, warning him of the danger of falling. He didn't care, his life was of no consequence to anyone. He wondered if anyone would even miss him if he fell and died right here.
All the things left undiscovered
He wondered what it would have been like, had he never left her sitting on the dirt crying. Had he never even invited her to the park with cruel intentions. They would still be together, no doubt.
He would still be hurting her with half- answers and long weeks of not hearing from him.
But being with him also had it privileges. Well at least he did call her, and came to see her when he felt too tired to go on. So he could come over and watch T.V, before accidentally falling asleep on her couch.
He smiled as he remembered waking up every time, a blanket spread lightly over his body. Her on the other side of the couch, another blanket covering her. She had always taken care of him. Never wanting him to leave, because she knew he would disappear again.
Leave me empty and left to wonder
He could have pulled her over to him, so they could "snuggle." Could have been more affectionate with her, maybe that would have made her want to be with him even more. Made her wait longer before moving on...
Well, at least he knew she would be okay with him. She would maybe get married to Wufei, then they could have children. His fist's clenched the chains on the swing. That was why he had broken up with her in the first place. So she wouldn't be dating a preventer boyfriend, who would keep her lonely and put her in danger.
Maybe she would get along without him just fine. Of course she would, he wasn't that important.
I need you
A strong wind blew in, bringing a thought to him.
What about me?
The idea hadn't even crossed his mind yet. How would he handle living without Minako? She had lightened his usually dark mood, so what now? Go back to a world where dark clouds were constantly hanging over him? What other choice was there.
All the things left undiscovered
Now that he had screwed himself over, all he could do was move on. Stop watching couples run through the rain and wonder how it would feel if it were him and Minako. Or see a beautiful place and wonder how Minako would have reacted to a picnic there.
Leave me waiting and left to wonder
Would she of enjoyed it? Would he of gotten another kiss from her?
Somehow the thought of being without her didn't appeal to him at all. It was just like another day, rather than a glorious one. Seeing the river as cold, rather that Luke warm. It made everything seem mediocre or even less than that.
I need you
He kicked his legs on the ground. Hard, sending his body flying ever upward. Did he really need her though? The wind blew his her into his face.
Yeah I need you
Of course he did! The thought hit him like a brick to the head. How stupid he had been to ever think otherwise!
As the swing soared upward again, he flipped out of it landing on the ground while barely making a sound. He ran his fingers through his hair. Of course! There was only one thing he could do.
He would tell her!
Don't walk away
Whether she accepted his love again or not was up to her. But she deserved an explanation, and she would get it.
He would tell her all about his Gundam Pilot days, being a preventer, and why he had broken up with her.
But would she accept?
00000
Minako ran down the road, trying her best to find any sign of Heero.'
She had had to finish the carnival ride before they would let her off, and jumping off would be too suspicious. She still had to keep the fact that she was a Senshi a secret. So when they had finally gotten off, she had made sure Wufei was okay before hastily saying where she was going and taking off.
Touch me now how I wanna feel
Something so real, please remind me
My love, and take me back
She needed to find him, to hold him in her arms and confess her undying love. That was all she had to do to make everything okay. She would tell him of the plan and then he would know that she still loved him.
She wanted him to pull her into his arms the way he had the day this all started, and hold her there. Never letting her go, not ever. She wanted to hear him tell her it was okay and that he loved her too. It would be the first time she would ever hear it from his lips, and she needed to hear it so desperately that it was killing her.
She had been running for almost an hour, and still no trace of Heero. He had to be around here somewhere. She looked this way and that, around and under things. He was nowhere to be found.
That was when she would be satisfied. They could finish living their life. She would tell him her alias of Sailor Venus and he would tell her he was a Gundam Pilot. She would confess she knew that already.
There! That plan sounded pretty fool-proof.
Cuz I'm so in love with what we were
They had been a strange sort of couple. But not an unhappy one, they were just taking time to feel out each step of the way. And it had worked, at first, but then she wasn't sure why Heero had broken up with her. But whatever it was, they could fix it.
She stopped, trying to catch her breath.
I'm not breathing i'm suffocating without you
Do you feel it too?
When she was with him, she had been so happy. Her whole life had flourished, and then when he left it was all bleak. All her hopes and dreams felt so far away, when they had felt so close not long before.
They could make it, all they needed to do was be completely honest with each other.
All the things left undiscovered
Leave me waiting and left to wonder
What would she have been had she not met Heero Yuy? Would she have been as happy as she had been lately, or maybe even met another guy without the complexities? Her mind stubbornly pushed the thought away. She didn't care! She loved Heero and that was enough for her. What if the Gods would punish her for question her good fortune.
She needed him as much as he would have to need her.
I need you
She began to run again. She would have to find him soon.
All the things left undiscovered
Leave me empty and left to wonder
I need you
If they were ever gonna figure out this relationship thing, they were gonna have to talk it out. And to talk it out, they would probably have to talk. Which meant she either needed to see him or talk to him on the phone. And she had decided on the former.
Yeah I need you
She had to find him!
00000
Minako pulled her hair down and began to brush it. Trying to breathe. Her sobs were making it too difficult, though. She hadn't found him, and it was all over. Throwing her brush onto her vanity, she slowly walked to the door of her room and leaned against it.
Artemis came up and rubbed himself soothingly against her leg, trying to calm the young girl. She slid down the doorframe and let him crawl into her lap.
"Oh,Artemis. I was too late, much too late." She said in a voice forlorn of any hope.
"Minako, you can't give up so easily!"
"What do you mean? Of course I can! I have worked my ass off this entire week! All for nothing!" She said, feeling very defensive right now.
The truth was that she was disappointed in herself. How could this not get him back, and since it didn't how could she give up so easily? Artemis walked off, hurt in his luminous blue eyes.
Slowly pulling herself up, she flicked off the light-switch and felt her way to the bed. Pulling the blanket aside she crawled in and curled into her usual balled up position. Trying to get into a comfortable position, she rolled over and looked the other way before rolling onto her back and staring at the ceiling.
When I'm in the dark and all alone
She closed her eyes, trying to calm herself. She felt so depressed and angry, and disheartened. So....this was it, this was what her life would be like forever. Laying in her bed, wishing he would come to her.
She bit her bottom lip as more tears threatened to spill. Her hands clenched the cool sheets, and pulled at them. Sitting up she put her back against the headboard and sighed.
Dreaming that you'll walk right through my door,
Wouldn't it be great if he knocked at her door right now. And when she opened it he told her how much he loved her and how much he wanted to be with her, just before pulling her into another kiss.
They would both forgive each other. Minako would forgive Heero for breaking her heart, Heero would forgive Minako for playing such a cruel game with him. She would invite him inside, and he would accept sitting on the couch and pulling her against him. They would lay there all night, snuggling and watching the news or maybe even a movie.
Its then I know my heart is whole
Yes, she missed him badly.
She loved him with everything within her, and if they never got together again she would die with that same love. She cared for him with everything inside of her, and hoped the feeling was mutual.
Tears spilled from her eyes, tears that had been held inside ever since the carnival. They refused to be delayed any longer, and she would have to let them out eventually. Rolling over in her bed, she let herself cry long into the night.
Theres a million reasons why I cry
She cried for everything. Her loss of love, her loss of love so many times. Her ruined childhood, her loss of her teenage years, her battle scars. All the people they hadn't been able to save. The loss of her life in the Silver Millennium. So many things.
Rounds of crying hit her, as soon as she recovered from one another hit her. Each one with vivid clarity, remembering jealous girls and crude boys. Childhood love and friendships lost.
She cried for her friends too. They each were giving up their life to protect the world. Ami wanted to be a doctor, while Rei wanted to be a business woman. Makoto wanted to be a cook, and Usagi just plain wanted to be a housewife.
All of them wanted to have a life too, but were denied the privilege.
Hold my covers tight and close my eyes
Gripping her sheets tighter, she took a few steadying breaths. She squeezed her eyes close and refused to let any more tears out.
She didn't want her life to be like this.
Cuz I don't wana be alone
She didn't want to live a life with no one. A life surrounded by love but with no love for herself.
Then don't !
The thought came to her from nowhere, but was surprisingly good.
All the things left undiscovered
Leave me waiting and left to wonder
I'll go and I'll tell him, she thought to herself.
He should be back at Relena's by now!
I need you
She would just admit everything to him and it would all be okay to him and to her.
All the things left undiscovered
Leave me empty and left to wonder
Getting up she hastily pulled on her school uniform. Brushing her hair out she pulled it up again and grabbed her shoes.
I need you, I need you
She needed to tell him, she needed to say. Heero Yuy! I love you Damnit, and if you don't love me...Well that's good for you. but I don't care!
She walked out of her bedroom, only to notice Artemis's usual place on the couch was empty. He had probably went to tell Luna and the rest of the scouts about her. The little snitch.
Walking to the door, she jerked it open only to gasp in amazement.
There standing in front of her was Heero, an equally shocked face with a hand poised to knock.
Cuz I cant fake and I can't hate
She should be angry, she should slap him and tell him to get the hell away from her house, but 't?
"Heero-" She began awkwardly.
"Minako-" He said in an equally awkward tone.
"Won't you come in?" She said trying to sound pleasant..
He ran his hands through his hair."Minako, you don't have to act so pleasant."
She looked at him, carefully keeping her face blank. But her insides were in turmoil as to what to do or say.
But it's my heart
That's about to break
He took another deep breath." No, I just came to say....-" His voice faltered," I came to say. Never mind, I'm sorry to bother you again."
He began to walk away, hands in his pockets looking as unhappy as he had been when she had first met him. If not more.
"Heero!" Minako called stopping him.
He turned to look at her, and eyebrow raised in question.
"Please, don't leave again."
You're all I need
His eyebrow raised further. She wanted him back written all over her face.
"Please come in..."
He only stared blankly at her.
I'm on my knees
"Please," she tried again.
He nodded his head and walked inside. Keeping it formal, he walked past her and into her house standing up and keeping his coat on.
Watch me bleed
Did she know how nervous he was? His soul squirming inside of his body, his heart beating quickly.
Afraid he was going to leave Minako turned on the T.V.
"Look at that kids day. Hats nice of them."
"Minako-"
Would you listen please
"Wow, that would be nice if I could help out with that and-"
"Minako!" He said, shutting her up.
He watched as her body tensed up and she squeezed her eyes shut. Walking over to her he sat down beside her.
Just tell her! His mind urged him.
I give in
"Minako, I'm sorry. I never should have let you go. Can you forgive me?"
A tear squeezed between her eyes.
"I--never should have come back and bothered you like this." He said, feeling horrible for making her cry.
"Heero!" She cried, stopping him before he got up.
"I'm sorry, too. It's okay. It doesn't matter now, your here. With me."
I breathe out
He pulled her to him, expecting her to tense, or cry out in anger. But was surprised to find she held on tightly to him.
I want you, theres no doubt
Pulling her back he captured her lips with his. The kiss was gentle and asking her forgiveness. But at the same time was possessive and consuming of her love. They broke the kiss and he held her to him.
I freak out, I'm left out
Without you, im without
"I never meant to hurt you, Minako I only wanted to protect you."
He then told her everything. About being a pilot when he was younger, and how he was now a preventer. She listened patiently before giving her confessions.
Heero was a bit shocked. She had known about him being a pilot and preventer. Tried to make him jealous, and to top it off was Sailor Venus.
I'm crossed out
I'm kicked out
I cry out
I reach out
"Are you mad at me," She said in that same voice he was used to. Looking down he found the puppy dog eyes he had expected.
"Yeah," he said gruffly.
Wrapping her arms around his waist she laid her head on his chest.
"Heero?"
Don't walk away
"Hn?"
Don't walk away
"Promise me...Promise me you'll never leave me again. At least not permanently..."
Don't walk away
Silence. Minako pulled out of his embrace, fear once again showing in her eyes. Her eyes connected with his and she was drowning in them. They were cold and calculating, and finally she received an answer.
Don't walk away
"I promise."
