Life Or Something Like It
2 Years…
2 years later…(A/N: Obviously)
"Mr. Elsman, your two o' clock is here," spoke Emma over the intercom.
"Thank you, and could you tell me who the two o' clock is again," Dearka sheepishly asked.
"It's the owner of Athha Inc. She asked about joining the companies," Emma answered with a sigh.
"Thank you Emma," Dearka replied. He leaned back in his chair and started thinking, 'Athha, I know that name,'
It had been a good two years since he had really talked with anyone from home. His parents had both passed away shortly after the court case. His father from some shocking reason left him his company and a heap of money that he had know one to blow it on.
"There you are!" came the voice of Dearka's 2 o' clock appointment.
At this time Dearka was reclined in his chair so far that when the person yelled he fell out of his chair. 'That's why that name sounds familiar,' he thought.
"Hi Cagalli," Dearka replied popping his head up over the table.
"You know when you left we all originally thought you would at least come back to visit!" Cagalli screamed.
"Ok before I explain tell if my secretary is outside," Dearka said now back in his chair.
"She's not, she told me to tell you she's taking a break why?" Cagalli answered.
"Ok, good," Dearka said pulling out a cigarette and pooping it into his mouth, "She's an amazing secretary I'll give her that, but a stickler for rules,"
"That's a great example to have being a father," Cagalli said as she stared at Dearka.
"Ya well the odds of ever being a father again are slim to none," Dearka replied with a half amused laugh and continued to smoke.
This is when Cagalli started to try to help, "That thing will kill you you do know that,"
"It's either this or the alcohol," Dearka replied with a smirk, 'Or myself,' as an after thought.
"Well I want to know if you're going to the reunion," Cagalli questioned.
"I'll try but the club up here needs a lot of work," Dearka answered.
"Just try ok," said Cagalli.
"All right I'll try," Dearka decided.
"Good I'll be going then," Cagalli stated and left.
Before Dearka could sit down and relax Emma his secretary yelled, "Mr. Elsman spit that thing out right now!"
Dearka's house…
When Dearka had arrived at home the first thing he did was turn on the TV to an entertainment news show.
"And coming up later in the show we show you the premiere of Miriallia Haww's newest movie and the people she was took with her," spoke the Anchor.
Dearka walked down the hall to the kitchen fully aware that the TV was on full blast. When he finally got to the kitchen he grabbed some beer from the fridge and headed back to the TV.
"I'm here with Miriallia Haww," spoke the Anchor, "Doing this romantic move must have been awkward having both your boyfriend and your daughter on set,"
"It actually was pretty awkward, but I believe the movie turned out great," Miriallia answered. On the TV screen Dearka saw Miriallia in a beautiful dress, he also saw Ami standing beside her holding her hand. To him they looked happy and he tried to reach out and touch them through the screen. As he watched them through the screen he noticed the boyfriend and wished he was dead.
"Tolle how do you feel when you're compared to Ami's father the business man Dearka Elsman?" the Anchor questioned.
With that question Dearka leaned forward. 'This isn't going to be pretty I just know it,' He thought.
"I think he's a low class idiot who doesn't know how to run a business," Tolle responded with a laugh. It obviously was pretty funny to him Miriallia and the anchor. Dearka sure didn't find it funny.
'I can't take this any more,' Dearka thought as he watched the three laugh, 'What's the point,'
Dearka walked towards his bathroom beer bottle in hand. This had been his nightly ritual when reality came knocking at his door and he realized how pointless life was for him at that point. When he had arrived at the bathroom he closed the door and while he sobbed to himself he began another mark on his pain existence.
Dearka's High School Reunion…
'All right, I came, I saw, and now I'm leaving,' Dearka thought to himself as he walked into the room took a quick glance and turned around.
"Dearka!" yelled the voice of Athrun.
'DAMN IT!' Dearka yelled to himself.
"There you are I thought you weren't going to come," Athrun spoke as he walked up to Dearka.
"Hey Athrun," Dearka responded. His voice was clearly dripping with fake happiness.
"Come on you've got to talk to Cagalli and the others," said Athrun. Dearka truly wondered what was wrong with his friend. Usually he was the one to pick up on the fake happiness stuff.
Dearka then proceeded to walk with Athrun towards a table that had been occupied by his friends. As he walked with Athrun Dearka had the uneasy feeling that people were talking about him.
"Hey isn't that Dearka Elsman," one whispered.
"Ya, I didn't think he'd have the courage to come here and show his face after what he did," spoke another.
It was then Dearka realized how badly his reputation had gotten. After the trial a good portion of the people in the city he grew up in and had known him most of his life were now convinced that he beat his daughter. "Hey you alright?" Athrun questioned with concern.
"Of course," Dearka replied with a smile as he stepped ahead of Athrun and started to greet his friends.
It was then that Athrun had gotten a good look at Dearka. In two years Dearka had changed drastically, his hair was slightly longer, he had a goatee growing, his usually dark skin was now quite white, and he had looked as if he had lost a lot of weight. When Athrun took a second look Dearka looked more like a stranger than his friend from high school.
"Hey there guys," Dearka said warmly towards Kian and Nina.
The now five-year-old children had looked up and screamed, "Uncle Dearka," and then proceeded to tackle him.
"Hey where's Yzak?" Dearka asked.
"Well…" Kira started. The remainder of the sentence never came out due to a scream from none other than Yzak.
"Where is he, I'll kill him!" Yzak roared as he stomped towards Dearka. Dearka had known this was coming ever since he said he was coming to the reunion. You see Dearka didn't really try hard to contact his friends over the past two years. He had believed that an emotional wreck like him was not needed.
"Would you shut up already, I just got Samantha to sleep," came Shiho's voice.
"Samantha?" Dearka questioned to his friends.
"Just wait," Lacus answered.
"Elsman!" Yzak yelled as he smacked Dearka.
"Man you like to hit me a lot don't you," Dearka spoke as he stood up.
"Well you deserved it you idiot," Yzak replied.
"Now that that's out of your system, Dearka say hello to Samantha," Shiho said with a sigh, "But if you wake her up you're dead," Shiho then proceeded to show Dearka the sleeping baby girl in her arms.
"Jeez, you know when I said make your mom proud and give her a grand kid's I was joking," Dearka laughed.
"Ah shut up," Yzak grumbled.
As Dearka looked around he noticed an open bar 'Oh thank God,'
"If you'll excuse me I'm going to get a drink," Dearka said as he excused himself.
"His it me or has Dearka changed," Shiho spoke.
"Probably, heck he's probably changed a lot more in the past two years than we see right now," Cagalli added.
"You think he'll ever be the same again," Kira commented.
"The day he makes peace with himself and admit it wasn't his fault Ami was taken away is when he'll be normal again," Yzak said as he ended the conversation.
At the bar…
"Bartender beer me," Dearka said as he walked up to the bar.
"Dearka?" asked the bartender.
"Shinn?" Dearka responded, "What are you doing here?"
"I'm working," Shinn answered. Shinn had also had changed significantly in the past two years. Like Dearka he looked to have lost quite a bit of weight, his skin had also appeared to be lighter than it used to be.
"This is odd," Dearka mumbled.
"What is?"
"It's odd that my club here wasn't asked to supply the drinks,"
"Well you see the thing is, after your court case the school board kinda figured you're a whack job,"
"Ok then whose club is supplying the drinks?"
"That would be your friend Nicol," Shinn answered, "Turns out his wife graduated from here with you, so he asked if I wanted to make some more money, I of course said yes,"
"Yo Dearka!" came the voice of none other than Heine.
"What's up man?" Heine continued to asked.
"It's alright," Dearka answered as he reached for the drink he ordered. It was when he did this his sleeve dropped and Shinn noticed long scars along Dearka's wrists. Shinn had instinctively started to rub his own wrist as he watched the to talk.
"So how's things with Meryin?" Dearka questioned. If there was one thing Dearka hated to talk about were other people's relationships.
"It's all right, little rocky with Luna," Heine answered sadly.
At this Shinn had decided to inject himself into the conversation, "What's wrong with her?" came his panicked voice. In the two years he was gone Shinn's love for her had grown, sadly he also always remembered that it was pity she felt for him not love.
"Whoa, Shinn?" Heine asked in shock, "That you?"
"Ya it is," Shinn answered, "Now what about Luna?"
Heine wanted to answer but Meryin, who had walked in mid conversation and saw Shinn, replied, "None of your business Shinn Asuka, she's happy with out you, lets go Heine,"
"But…" Heine started.
"If you don't come now your sleeping on the couch," Meryin retorted.
"Well looks like I'll be going then," Heine said changing his attitude, "Can I have get a drink before a go?" he asked turning towards Shinn.
"What for?" Dearka asked.
"Easy four kids is hard to deal with," Heine replied.
"But there are only three kids in our group of friends," Dearka said confused.
"Well you wouldn't know since you've been gone but Yzak's been a giant baby since him and Shiho have had Samantha, the slightest thing sets him off," Heine replied.
"How's that different from when we were younger?" Shinn mumbled. Sadly it was heard by Dearka and Heine and both men started to laugh hard.
"Heine!" Meryin screamed.
"Whoops gotta go," Heine said in a hurry and bolted.
"He is so whipped," Dearka said as he turned back towards Shinn.
"You think Luna's happy," Shinn said absent-mindedly.
"I have know idea," Dearka replied and took a swig of his drink.
Dearka had been enjoying his drink and chatting with Shinn about how much life sucked at that point. But all good things come to an end. During Dearka's and Shinn's conversation a woman yelled out, "Oh my God, it's Miriallia Haww and Tolle Koenig!"
At this naturally Dearka had started chocking on an ice cube. If it weren't for the smack on the back from somebody Dearka would've died. Dearka in all honesty didn't know if he was thankful for being saved or not. "Jeez Dearka, you should be more careful when you drink," spoke the voice of Nicol.
"Nicol?" Dearka asked in wonder, "What are you doing here?"
"Hey Dearka," Nicol greeted, "My wife graduated with you so I came with her partly for the trip and partly to watch Shinn,"
"HEY!" Shinn yelled.
"So where is this wife of yours?" Dearka questioned as he glanced around. Of course the only point of interest was Miriallia and Tolle, so obviously his glancing started to become gazes of longing.
"You'll laugh when you here this but my wife would be one of the many over excited women over there," Nicol answered as he jerked his thumb toward the crowd, "Kinda wish she'd be that excited when I came home," Nicol continued with a laugh.
"Well Nicol if it's one thing I've learned in 28 years of existence I've learned this," spoke Dearka, "Ignorance is bliss,"
"That it is Dearka," Nicol added, "Uh-oh, wife's getting a little to happy around movie stars, gotta go," Nicol then took off hoping to pry his wife away.
"Haha," Dearka laughed, "Hey Shinn you mind if I smoke around here?"
"I don't care it's your life," Shinn replied as he was continuing to serve drinks.
During the excitement the now eight year old Ami and been pushed around to the point where she wasn't near her anymore. 'Don't think she'd notice,' Ami thought to herself. If Ami learned anything in the two years she was without her father it was this, she hates her mother. For the past two years her mother's boyfriend had carted the two around like props to every movie premier of his. Not only that he made fun of her dad. And of course her mother didn't say anything. So as Ami stood there looking around for anything of interest she noticed by the bar that there was a pale black haired man and a an awfully pale blonde haired man talking and smoking. 'Wait,' Ami thought, 'Dad had blonde hair, I think,' Ami was pretty smart for an eight year old. With the idea that this blonde haired man was the dad she hadn't seen in two years she set off hoping to talk to him.
It was when the commotion had died down that Miriallia noticed her daughter was missing. "Tolle where's Ami?" Miriallia asked.
"I don't know," Tolle answered, 'and honestly don't care,'
Miriallia started to panic. She looked around the room and stopped on the figure of her daughter trying to get the attention of a blonde haired man at the bar. 'Dearka?' Miriallia thought.
"Excuse me?" Ami asked the blonde haired man.
Dearka of course jumped because the voice was behind him. Shinn when he looked somehow turned more pale than he already was and started to panic, 'Crap!'
"Yes," Dearka responded after settling his nerves after being scared. When he turned around and looked down he saw the brightest violet eyes he ever saw. Actually he saw a similar pair in the mirror every morning, the only difference was that after two years without Ami, and eight without Miriallia, his eyes lost the shine everyone had mentioned he had. As he stared at the little girl who was by now identified by both Dearka and Shinn as Ami, Dearka had noticed how much his daughter looked like a mini-Miriallia, the only difference here was that she had a slightly darker tone to her skin that obviously came from him.
"Are you my dad?" Ami questioned as she gazed at him.
Dearka started to sweat. He had no idea how to answer that, he wasn't suppose to have contact with his daughter so how was he to answer. Dearka came up with the bright idea to turn and ask Shinn. Shinn of course had know idea and shook his head.
Dearka mentally sighed to himself. By now Miriallia had come up behind Ami and stood watching the two converse. Seeing Miriallia there now had helped make Dearka make his decision. He looked down and answered, "Sorry kid but I'm not,"
"Are you sure?" Ami asked again, "I remember he had the same hair as you," Ami continued after she looked in his eyes, "But my dad's eyes were really bright like mine I think, yours look too dull, sorry to have bothered you,"
Ami then turned around and bumped into her mother. "Ami, go with Orga, he'll get a table," Miriallia ordered her daughter. (A/N: Orga is their bodyguard)
"Umm, hi Dearka," Miriallia said softly now turning towards Dearka.
When Shinn heard it he laughed to himself, 'Damn she's stupid, first she leaves, then she takes his daughter away, and now she's trying to be nice,' He continued to laugh to himself. He suddenly stopped when Dearka glared at him.
"I'm fine," Dearka answered. He turned around and got Shinn to get him another drink while he smoked.
"When did you start to smoking?" Miriallia asked trying again to talk with him.
By now Dearka was beyond pissed. His thoughts were exactly like Shinn's that Shinn had a few moments before. He turned around and with all the venom he had in him replied, "Look you don't have to make with the nice since were in public, so just buzz off, and about me smoking why would you care?"
Visibly hurt Miriallia had turned away and walked toward the table her daughter and bodyguard were at. She personally didn't see why they needed one but Tolle had insisted. He had two others with him and sadly they weren't as polite as Orga was. When Miriallia had walked away Tolle stepped up to talk with Dearka. 'Trust me body don't piss off a drunk depressed Dearka, he'll hurt you,' Shinn thought, he then glanced at the two bodyguards and also thought, 'Those two won't be any help either,'
"Well it's the great business man and father of the year, Dearka Elsman," Tolle spoke with a laugh.
"Trust me movie star, I'm not in a good mood, so trust me when I say this back off or I'll make you," Dearka growled.
'Yup,' Shinn thought, 'Drunk depressed Dearka is scary,'
"Well Dearka you obviously have know idea who I am other than the famous actor," Tolle continued. He clearly didn't either hear Dearka's threat or was content thinking that the two bodyguards were enough to take on a drunk.
"I have know idea, nor do I give a damn," Dearka spoke again.
"Well let me remind you, last year of high school, I was planning on asking Miriallia out but you got there before me," Tolle seethed with anger as he spoke.
"I still have no clue," Dearka replied.
"Oh oh, I remember you, you were that dorkie kid in the same grade as Dearka, He hit you with a football at one of our games," Shinn interjected and laughed.
"Now I remember, I was trying to buy time so I whipped the ball into the crowd and whapped you in the head," Dearka said as he remembered and tried not to laugh.
"You also got the soccer ball in the crotch when you played," Shinn continued to add. He then had to hold his sides as he laughed and tried to breath right.
"HAHA!" Dearka cracked and started to laugh, "I definitely remember now, you and Yzak were playing in the final soccer game of the school year and when Yzak passed the ball you caught it in the crotch and hit the ground hard,"
"Blew the game for us too," Shinn added.
"Yes I can admit I didn't have the greatest final year," Tolle said rolling his eyes. He was embarrassed by someone who he believed he was better than, his bodyguards were even laughing.
"Greatest year, hell I remember when you asked Meryin out and wouldn't stop until Luna stuffed you in a locker," Shinn still continued to laugh at the now embarrassed and pissed Toll. Dearka was partly worried that if Shinn passed out from laughing he'd have to give him mouth-to-mouth.
"Yes those were very embarrassing moments, but it was Dearka who ruined my life," Tolle started.
"And…" Dearka said now bored with the conversation.
"You took my Miriallia away from me, I was to be her first kiss, I was to be the first to sleep with her, and I was to be the father of her first child!" Tolle screamed at Dearka.
Dearka looked at the table that Miriallia and Ami sat at and replied, "Well looks like you got her now,"
"That's not all, I've got your daughter as well," Tolle laughed, "I've spent my entire life trying to be better than you so I could destroy your life, so far I've done well, first Miriallia left you with no help from me, next Yzak gets injured hell even that red haired bitch Luna got hurt," Tolle continued.
Dearka spun around just in time to catch Shinn and stop him from lunging at Tolle. "Next I take your daughter away by convincing Miriallia to do it, and all I had to do was bribe a few robbers and a few jury members and all this was successful, now I just have to take Miriallia away forever and your life is over,"
Dearka had of course had enough. When the bodyguards were facing the other way he punched Tolle in the stomach. Tolle had whispered to Dearka, "Go to hell you bastard,"
Dearka had of course smirked at Tolle like he was a teenager. He leaned forward an whispered in his ear, "I've been there, I've lived it for two years, trust me when I say this, I have no fear of hell!"
By now Shinn stood behind Dearka. He had rolled up his sleeves and showed his wrists to Tolle, "I've been there as well, living my own personal hell, and if you don't believe me, ask Dearka to show you his wrists, they'll be the same,"
"You think your better just because you land a punch Dearka!" Tolle sneered, "After tonight you'll be a pathetic blubbering man," He stood up and walked away.
"Nice hit Dearka," Shinn spoke to Dearka.
"So you know what I've been doing," Dearka asked.
"Yes I do, I saw your wrist when you were talking to Heine," Shinn answered. Dearka then nodded his head and sat down again cigarette and alcohol in hand.
Later that evening…
"Ladies and Gentleman, someone in the crowd has something they need to ask," Spoke a person over the mike.
'What now,' Dearka thought.
It was Tolle who stood up. He tried to look good walking up to the podium but Shinn had yelled, "Look it's the movie star, Tolle the Tool!" After that Tolle's walk and speech fell on mostly deaf hears after the laughter died.
"As you know I've been dating the great movie star Miriallia Haww," Tolle started, "And since she's here tonight I have something to ask," He had stepped down and walked back to the table and pulled something out of his jacket. He then kneeled down in front of Miriallia and asked, "Will you marry me?"
Dearka hadn't even waited for an answer. He abruptly stood and turned to Shinn, "I have to get out of here,"
Shinn knowing that he had had a lot of alcohol had tried to stop him and in the process of doing so had knocked over a table and stopped Miriallia from answering. Sadly Dearka had moved pretty fast for a drunk guy and was out the door. And without apologizing ran to Yzak and the others. "Quick…Yzak…Dearka…" Shinn tried but he was trying to catch his breath but he was out of air.
"Shinn?" Everyone asked but Meryin and Heine.
"Ya hi," Shinn replied, "Yzak you have to go after Dearka he's drunk depressed and now it's worse with this!" Shinn had forgotten about the rather large group of people and had yelled this conversation and pointed at Tolle and Miriallia.
"What do you mean worse?" Yzak growled as he watched Shiho try to get their daughter back to sleep.
Shinn stopped. He didn't know if Dearka really needed all his friends to know he's been trying to kill himself. He decided that telling was safer. "He's been cutting himself and now he's really drunk and I don't know what he'll do," Shinn answered finally.
Every guy at that table jumped out of their chairs and ran for the parking lot asking where he would go. Their wives had also decided to take off after their husbands hoping to help. When he looked Meryin and Heine had gone as well.
Several minutes later at Dearka's old apartment…
"What makes you think he'll be here?" Heine questioned.
"Look where else would a man who wants to die go," Yzak replied, "He would go right back to where the hell started,"
"Well open the damn door!" Heine yelled.
Dearka had heard this. "I have to hurry," He whispered to himself, "I have to end this,"
"Just kick the door down!" Yzak yelled. Two minutes and some banging later the door hit the floor. Sadly when the two ran into the apartment it was too late, Dearka had slit his wrists and was bleeding badly.
"Call 911 quickly!" Yzak yelled. He then ran into the washroom and wrapped Dearka's wrists with some towels.
Later at the Hospital…
"He's lost quite a bit of blood, if we don't get a transfusion he will die," the Doctor on call told Yzak and Heine.
"Shit!" Yzak mumbled, "What's his blood type?" he asked as he rolled up his sleeves.
"It's AB," the Doctor responded.
As soon as the Doctor had answered Yzak had rolled his sleeves down in defeat, "Mines O," he whispered.
Heine could be heard shuffling for something in his wallet. "Damn, mines A,"
"Heine do we know anyone with that blood type?" Yzak questioned in a low voice.
"Not any I'm aware of," Heine answered.
"I have that blood type," spoke Miriallia's voice.
"No, uhuh, no way," Yzak said waving his hands in front of him.
"Come on Yzak, it's either let her help or let him die," Heine added.
"Fine!" Yzak yelled. He then stepped out of the way and let her pass.
Miriallia mumbled a low, "Thank you," and followed the Doctor to a room.
"What the hell are the odd's of that eh," Heine said walking up to Yzak.
"Shut up," Yzak answered, "I'm going home, it's late, Dearka'll be unconscious for awhile probably and I really don't want to contend with her till tomorrow,"
Next Morning…
"Hey Yzak where's the wife?" Heine questioned.
"At home with our baby, where's yours?" Yzak barked back.
"With her sister, hopefully not telling her that Shinn was in town," Heine added.
"So where are Kira and Athrun?" Heine asked.
"They should already be hear," Yzak answered as he walked down the hall.
"Hey guys," Kira greeted.
"Hey," Athrun greeted as well with a yawn.
"Where are the wives?" Heine questioned.
"At home with the idea that seeing a dieing man in the hospital is a bad idea," Kira answered for the two.
"So why are you two out here and not in the room?" Yzak questioned.
"Well…" Kira started.
"Look in the room and you'll see," Athrun answered after he heard Yzak growl.
Yzak glanced through the door and could see Miriallia fast asleep in one of the chairs in the room. "What the hell is she doing here?" Yzak whispered.
"Well it turns out that when Shinn told us what was wrong, he happened to yell it so loud she heard him," Athrun.
FLASHBACK (A/N: This is here so you know why she's here)
"Shinn?" Miriallia called coming up to Shinn.
"What?" Shinn turned around to face her.
"Where's Dearka running?" Miriallia asked.
"I don't know, give it a few minutes maybe hours and then go to the f-ing hospital," Shinn replied hotly.
"Why are you so angry with me?" Miriallia questioned.
"Why?" Shinn repeated, "You're asking why, I'll tell you why, you up and leave Dearka believing you ruined his life, which by the way was ruined the day he met the people he hung out with in school, then you come and take the only happiness he had left, then you try to be nice and worry about him now!" Shinn's face was now as read as his eye's.
"Listen, I'm sorry I left Dearka, it's something for the past eight years have regretted everyday when I woke up alone," Miriallia yelled back, "Secondly it wasn't my idea to fight for Ami's custody, it was Tolle's, thirdly when I decided I wanted custody it Dearka was supposed to be aloud to visit!"
"So that wouldn't have made a damn difference!" Shinn yelled again, "If he was aloud to visit her, he would get to see you and your boyfriend all happy together raising Ami, and he'd be the third wheel in your relationship!"
"But I love Dearka!" Miriallia screamed.
"How can you?" Shinn questioned, "After everything that's happened how can you believe what you've just said, the only people who care about Dearka just ran out of this room, I would've gone but I had to watch that damn bar!"
"But I love him," Miriallia whispered more to herself than Shinn.
Shinn had heard it anyway, "Then prove it," he told her.
"I will," Miriallia replied and turned to walk away.
"Miriallia!" Shinn called.
"Yes?" She answered.
"You might want to give the man an answer," Shinn told her as he pointed at Tolle, "And of course take your daughter,"
With that Miriallia had turned beet red and walked back to the now embarrassed Tolle. Who by this time was quite mad about his spotlight being taken away. "So what's you answer?" Tolle asked.
"No," Miriallia answered. She picked up Ami and turned to walk away with Orga following.
"No, What do you mean no?" Tolle questioned.
"I mean I can't marry you, I love someone else," Miriallia answered.
"Who could be better than me!" Tolle asked in shock.
"Ami's dad that's who," Miriallia answered. She tried to walk away but Tolle had grabbed her arm and stopped her.
"You mean that dumb moron Dearka?" Tolle asked, "He's got nothing on me, he pathetic, and a low class no talent idiot!"
As Tolle stood laughing, Miriallia had passed her daughter to Orga the bodyguard. She then stepped in front of him and cracked him across the jaw. Personally Shinn had never seen any woman look that scary in his entire life. The only person to come that close to frightening was a pregnant Cagalli when Athrun ate the last pancake when the group went out to breakfast.
As the group of people laughed Miriallia had walked out of the building looking for her car to go after Dearka. All Shinn could do as he watched the scene was say, "Good luck,"
END FLASHBACK
"Think he'll be shocked when he wakes up?" Athrun questioned.
"Well were about to find out," Yzak replied pointing into the room. Yzak had again proven he was right. The group watched as Dearka had begun to stir.
The four men watched Dearka as he sat up and looked around the room. From his actions they could guess that he was so drunk last night he didn't remember cutting himself. As Dearka looked around he stopped when he looked at the chair next to his bed. "Holy crap," Dearka was heard speaking in a hoarse voice. He continued to stare at Miriallia until he saw movement.
"Your awake," She mumbled softly.
"Ya but how'd I get here and why are you here?" Dearka asked in clear confusion. The question he had asked wasn't meant to be rude. But with the way life was going at the time it just sounded like it did.
"Don't worry about that, just lay down while I get the Doctor," Miriallia order in a carrying tone.
She the stood and left the room. But before she left she could here Dearka say, "I'm dreaming, it's either that or I'm dead and in heaven," Miriallia just smiled softly and walked out the room to get the Doctor.
The four men who stood outside the door had said hello as she passed and continued to watch as she talked to the Doctor and the two went back to Dearka's room to check on him. The four watched as the Doctor did several things and asked several questions. When he left they watched Miriallia tell Dearka something burst into tears and hug him while he was in shock. "Do you think he'll be okay now?" Heine questioned.
"Ya he'll be fine now," Yzak answered.
The four men walked away so that the two people in the room could have privacy. To them it could almost be the ending to a story. Sadly not all stories have Heine. "Wonder when they'll be married?" Heine questioned to no one. And just like every stupid question he asks he was smacked on the head by Yzak as they walked out.
THE END
A/N: That's right it's over. There probably will be a Epilogue so don't worry about that. Just enjoy my ending, well I hope you enjoy it.
Just some small things to mention. If I some how messed with bodily function here with the timing in the hospital area please remember I've never done that and thankfully never had friends do that. Also to make sure everybody knows this, it was a surprise to me, both Dearka and Miriallia actually do have the same blood type of AB in the show.
Anyway
Later Days…
