Five Pilots and a Girl
By catnips_ph
CHAPTER SIXTEEN
It was two days after the incident. The pilots had no assignment so all of them stayed in the area. In fact, all the pilots seemed to be working a lot on a big project since they are always huddled in the living room mainly in front of Heero's laptop. While Lizzy, on the other hand, tried to stay away from them as much as possible. She stayed with the gundams and tried to fix anything she could. Surprisingly, she didn't found any dents on Wing Zero, Heavyarms and Shenlong. That means they didn't encounter any enemy. She then pondered for a minute if they were even successful in their latest mission. They were back only after a day!
Meanwhile, Duo and Quatre were definitely not in good terms. Wufei, on the other hand, didn't know whether he'd be pleased with the idea because no one has been bothering him for the last two days. Wufei, Trowa and Heero had still no idea what had happened but they suspect that Quatre seem to know something. They also saw on the next day how Quatre beat up Duo. It was right after Trowa had told Quatre what they've seen. It was the first time they have seen Quatre so riled up. But neither Duo nor Quatre would tell them anything. Their only key lies with Lizzy who at the moment would not talk to any of them.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Lizzy can't sleep that night again. She tossed and turned in her bed. She knew she would wake up Wufei by doing just that but she can't help it. She had too many thoughts in her mind and she doesn't know what to do with them. First on her list is the guilt she feels everytime she sees either Duo or Quatre. It was just too much. She knows Duo likes Quatre but the latter is now angry with him all because of her! It was bad enough that she feels guilty about Quatre's father and deceiving them by not telling them that she used to be with Oz. What would happen to her if they did find out? She is betting on a 90% chance that Heero will kill her at point blank. But that would be after they all tortured her for information. She felt like crying but then stopped herself. What's the point in crying? Wufei will definitely kill her now if she did cry. He hates weak people. Especially weak onnas. She's an onna. Her heart cringed again thinking how the other three pilots thought that she did drugged Duo. But what would make them see that she will do that? She then wondered if Duo had confessed who did it to him. But knowing Heero didn't press on the matter, it means they knew who did it. But it would be impossible to be Quatre. He is not that careless. She strongly feels that Duo might have done it to himself knowing how depressed he was. If only I could take back time, she wondered. Foolishness, she knew.
"If you don't want to sleep yet, why don't you just get up and go someplace else".
Wufei. It was more of a statement rather than a plea. He seemed really pissed off. But she doesn't give a damn. Instead, she uttered a long sigh.
"Are you testing my patience woman?"
Lizzy heard a rustle of bedsheets. She felt that Wufei is now completely awake without looking at him. Her eyes still glued on the ceiling.
"Do you know what time it is? It's already 2am in the morning and I haven't gotten any decent sleep for the past 2 nights with you tossing around the bed all the time!"
By now, Lizzy wondered if the other pilots have woken up as well with the entire racket Wufei was making.
Wufei, expecting to see some retort from the onna, was surprised to see her get up and quietly left the room. Damn that onna, Wufei cursed to himself. Now he knows he will definitely not get any sleep that night. Of all the things he hated, it's seeing other's weakness. And he hated her right now for being just that. But most of all, he hates the feeling that he has to go to her and do something to make her feel.. feel. Hell, he can't even say it to himself.. Okay, he felt that he has to do something to make her feel better - no, maybe not that but make her normal again. He was not used to seeing Lizzy so weak. The woman rarely backs down from a fight especially with him. She would see to it that he had lost his patience so much that he would start arguing about injustice and dumb weak onnas. But now, it was the first time he had seen her vulnerable side and it really surprised him that it was affecting him.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Lizzy left the room so as not to disturb Wufei and eventually wake up the other pilots. She went down to the kitchen and got herself a drink. She saw some bottles of wine, whiskey and other liquor but decided to drink plain water. It will not do her any good if she drinks. Look what happened to Duo, she told herself. Jeez, why can't I get all the damn things out of my system?, she screamed to herself.
She then headed to the living room and sat at one of the sofas. She surveyed the room just to get her mind someplace else. Then she saw one laptop and decided to open it and play some computer games.
Looks like this is Quatre's laptop, she mused. It was in hibernation mode. When it finally open, she got a chance to see what they were working on for the past two days. And what she had seen shocked her. She nearly passed out if it not had been for Trowa who had suddenly appeared and sat down on a nearby couch. She can't let him see the feeling she has at that moment. But of all the people, why did it have to be Trowa? The guy is very good in reading other people's emotion. Worst, she can't read Trowa's emotions at all.
