A month after, their unexpected yet wonderful night, Heero suprised her. She had been working on deciding what classes to take for her first semester. She had been so engrossed that she hadn't noticed him standing in the doorway. ' There are a lot of intereseting classes but I want and should really take are two different things...Anthropology is a must then the rest should be required basics.' Her thoughts decided to do a complete 180. She had been so distracted in her thoughts and what she had been doing. She had failed to notice Heero standing in the doorway. ' I need to call Milliardo, so we can get together...I have yet to meet Lucrezia...He said the baby is due in a few months...' But not distracted enough to miss the song that came on the radio.
It made her think of her fiancee. She had never been one to pass up a golden opporunity. So when she met Heero. she knew she would never find anyone better for her than him. The song jerked Heero out of his reverie. It made the both of them think that once destiny is set, nothing can change it. Case in point, she thought the one she would marry would be James. Heero is thinking that he had never wanted to waste his time on love. He had thought he would never had found a love as strong as his parents.
herefore, he had come to think of love as a waste of time, until he had met Relena, then he knew he found what he had been longing for. ' Especially after what she endured all for me...I hadn't really thought her father would disown and kick her out for loving me...At least he had her, and they had found a comfortable enough apartment...It had been just like her, to insist that she paid have of everything.' We he met her normally, he never would have gone after someone else's girlfriend. But when he laid eyes on her, he had known they were meant only for each other.
If I told you it was all meant to be,
Would you believe me
Would you agree
It's almost that feeling that we met before
So tell me that you don't think I'm crazy
When I tell you love has come here and now
He startled her. "You know that is what I felt when we met." " I'm sorry, what?... Heero" "The song...It's almost that feeling that we met before." She looks at him pondering, before giving him that smile that had the power to melt his heart, and pierce his soul. And as it would continue all the days of his life. "Yes, your right...I had felt the same way." "I still do, and you Heero?" "Yes." The song continues to reach their ears, as they resume what they are doing.
A moment like this
Some people wait a lifetime
For a moment like this
Some people search forever
For that one special kiss
Oh I can't believe it's happening to me
Some people wait a lifetime for a moment like this.
Everything changes but beauty remains
Something so tender
I can't explain
Well I may be dreaming but till I awake
Can we make this dream last forever
And I'll cherish all the love we share
A moment like this
Some people wait a lifetime
For a moment like this
Some people search forever
For that one special kiss
Oh I can't believe it's happening to me
Some people wait a lifetime for a moment like this.
He had still been standing in the doorway. The singer struck another chord in his mind. ' So true that majority of people wait for true love to occur. And most of those people who do find it, let mundane things destroy it. Well, I will be one of the few that will hang onto it...I found that special kiss and moment...I refuse to let go of her or those things...Nor will I ever take them for granted... I will always cherish her and our memories.' His mental pledge gave him confidence to go through, with what he has planned next.
She is deciding on mostly basic courses for anthropology. As she is looking at the course descriptions, the catalog is suddenly taken out of her hands. Looking up, she sees Heero kneeling before her. Her right hand held in his, with a hopeful expression on his face. "Relena, will you be my wife?" The song penetrates the moment once again.
Could this be the greatest love of all
I wanna know that you will catch me when I fall
So let me tell you this
Some people wait a lifetime for a moment like this
Some people wait a lifetime
For the moment like this
Some people search forever
For that one special kiss
Oh I can't believe it's happening to me
Some people wait a lifetime for a moment like this
As the song had been ending, she wished it wouldn't. She knew she would wind up hurting him once it ended.
Oh Oh like this
Oh Oh Oh Oh
Some people search forever, oh yeah yeah
Some people wait a lifetime for a moment like this
Oh like this
"Relena?" She had leaned forward. She whispered her refusal in his ear. "Why?" "Because I am not ready for that commitment yet, and I don't think you really are yet." "No, Relena...I am more than ready...I know you are too, so why did you refuse me?" It quickly dawned on him as to why she would deny his proposal. Not to be deterred, he straddles her in the chair. He took the diamond solitaire out of its confinement, he placed it on the proper hand and finger. As his forehead had been against hers, he told her it would be a long engagement, and that they would set a date when she thought them to be more financially set. In the moment that had followed, he had taken her mouth in a bruising, promising kiss.
Three years have gone by, since he proposed to her. In time when they have their own home and are financially prepared, they would start a family. It is something she wants very much...To have children with the man she loves...She knows he wants children as much as she does. She still doesn't feel they are financially ready to get married. However, she is ready to start making wedding plans. She feels they are half way on being financially stable. She would tell him as much when he gets home. She knows he has been extremely patient on waiting.
He is a true gentleman. She would also end his sexual suffering. Well actually, their suffering. After his proposing, she told him that she wanted to wait, until they married before being physically intimate again. He complied. For a gentleman never forces his needs or desires on a lady...School and work made it even harder to accomplish. Oh, they came close several times. But one of them all managed to stop in time...It had not been for a lack of trying. He arrived at their apartment, an hour later. Upon hearing the door opening, she quickly approaches him. He didn't even get the chance to call out to her. He has a shocked expression on his face, as she jumps into his arms.
Straddling his waist, she gives him a light kiss. The next moment, he deepens it. They continue this way for several minutes. He pulls back. "Are you sure?" He asked in a strained voice. "Yes, its okay." She gives him a reassuring smile. He resumes what he had been doing. Their pent up desires take over. He picks up the pace. His hands are starting to roam, leaving her to support herself against him. His hand is feeling up her thigh, as he starts kissing her neck. His left hand on her breast. "Not here, bedroom, please." She managed to get out. She is having trouble breathing, as he makes it even harder. He now has both of his hands on her breasts, lightly caressing them. He has resumed kissing her mouth. She is forced to hang onto him, because of where his hands currently are. They reach the bedroom as he goes back to her neck. Her legs still wrapped around his hips. Her hands now in his hair, as she arches her neck further back giving him more access. "Heero...Please don't make me wait any longer. Her shirt is off by the time they reach the bed. He gently lays her on the bed.
Trying to retract himself from her long enough to undress the both of them. He is unable to as he finds himself in a her tight grip. "Relena?" She starts to undress him. As her mind starts to clear from the haziness, she is able to think logically enough. She realizes their clothes have to come off first. She starts to unbotton his shirt. He starts to work on unclasping her bra. As he starts a trail of butterfly kisses down her chest. Her moans start and quickly intensify in volume and time. He holds her in his arms hours later. Her head on his chest. He kisses her forehead. She leans into him, as they start all over again. Her last clear thought is 'by this time next year...I will be Mrs. Heero Yuy.' Dawn finds them in each other's embrace; as it's first rays of light gently wash over the couple.
