Hey guys! It's been a while, hasn't it! Well anyways, sorry I kept you waiting! I just had to watch A LOT of court and law movies and research a lot about courtrooms to finish this fic. But anyways, I think I've done most of the research, so on with the chapter. Oh and by the way, I don't own Gundam Wing.

Traitorous Lies

Chapter Six: Study The Feelings

By: Candy2323

The library was uncomfortably quiet to Ellen. But, of course, it should be. It was 1:45 in the morning and she was in an uncomfortable chair, with piles and piles of documents in front of her, tired as hell, and to top it all off, her husband was sitting across from her staring at her like her whole face was covered with warts for the last hour and a half.

"WHAT? Do I have something on my face? A booger hanging out or something?"

"Hn."

"Then why are you staring at me?"

"Hn."

Turning her attention back to a document, she heard a small whimper next to her feet. Look down, she saw Holly moving and starting to wake up. Although she wasn't too thrilled to bring Holly along with her, Relena had no choice. Sometimes it just sucked to breastfeed, especially when Holly would take nothing other than a breast at night, no exceptions. I guess that's Holly's way of saying that's your punishment for taking me away from my father!

Sighing, Relena picked her up and started to undo her blouse buttons, temporarily forgetting where she was until she looked up and saw six guys staring at her.

"Hehe, sorry. Habit," she said standing up and heading toward an empty corner. Heero's eyes followed her and the baby, a strange feeling overwhelming him. Standing up, he went to corner on the opposite side of where Relena went. Why does that baby look so familiar? Do I know them from somewhere? What the hell is wrong with me? Composing himself, Heero headed back toward the guys.

"Yo man, you ok," Duo asked.

"Hn."

"You don't look so good. Maybe you should go home and get some rest."

"That's a good idea," Quatre said standing up, "I think we all should go home and get some rest."

"I agree with Q-Man!"

"Alright," Mr. Thornton said standing up, "You've helped us quite enough. I think Ellen and I will be able to finish up here. Why don't you all go home."

"Nah, we couldn't leave you guys here hanging. Come on, let's go. You need your beauty sleep just like the rest of us."

"Nobody needs more beauty sleep than you Maxwell."

"Exactly Wu-Man! Come on. Let's put this crap up and go to bed!"

"Alright," Mr. Thornton said. They started packing up book and piling their papers and notes in stacks. Ellen had just finished feeding and was buttoning up her shirt whenever she headed out of the corner and toward the rest of the guys, baby sleeping peacefully in her arms.

"Ellen, we're leaving for the night. You can just go home now, we're almost done cleaning up. Besides, I think the little one wants to be in her own bed, rather than her car seat."

"Yes Mr. Thornton, but I just need to do a little more researching."

"Nonsense Ellen, no go home and get to bed. You look like you haven't had a good night sleep in a week."

"But Mr. Thornton, we've only got two months to study this case, and tons of paperwork that needs to be read and recorded. We don't have time to take breaks."

"Ellen, you work too hard. We've got plenty of time to work on this case. Don't worry. Now, go home and get this little angel to bed."

"But Mr. Thorn-"

"No buts Ellen, home now!"

"Alright, but only because I have Holly with me."

"Good." Walking around to collect her stuff, Ellen grabbed four of the closest books and stuffed them into her diaper bag. Looking around to see if anyone else was watching her, she grabbed two more books and attempted to stick them into her purse.

"Tsk Tsk Tsk, Ms. Young. I believe that Mr. Thornton told you to go home," Duo said pulling the books out of her grasp.

"I was just planning on researching a little more, then going to bed Mr. Maxwell."

"Too bad. Now why do you and that pretty little thing there go home. We'll clean up things here."

"No I-."

"Please," Duo interrupted, "Let's us clean up and you go to home." He pouted and gave her his little puppy dogs face where his bottom lip bulges out and his eyes water. She always fell for that look.

"Oh alright! But I expect you to be here bright and early tomorrow morning."

"Will do Ms. Young, will do!"

Walking out to her car, Relena couldn't help but giggle. They'll never change. Nope, never change.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Heero stood up over the balcony looking at the few people walking below. He still couldn't get his mind off of Ellen. He'd never felt this way about anyone else, except her. Why was he feeling like this. Was he finally accepting that she'd never come back? No, never. I'll never give up looking for you Relena, never. A small wind blew, chilling him. Turning back around to try and get some restless sleep, to dream fitfully about her.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

She couldn't put it down. It was too special to her, though she didn't know why. Of all the thing to keep, she just had to pick this one. What made it so special, anyways? Of course she knew why…

"Relena, I want to tell you something."

"Yeah."

"You remember when you asked me about that," Heero said pointing to the small gold band around her ring finger.

"Yeah. Where did you find it, anyways?"

"I made it. That's why you've never seen anything quite like it."

"You made it? Out of what, platinum?"

"Nope. Gundanium. That way, it'll never be damaged or broken. Kinda like us."

"That's so sweet baby," Relena said grabbing Heero's face and pulling him down for a sweet kiss.

Pulling it out of a small jewelry box, Relena looked at the inside if it where it had HY & RY encrusted in it. He was right though, throughout the past year, this ring had never been damaged at all. She knew she should've given it back, but she couldn't. It was like she shared a bond with it, stupid as that may sound. Even whenever she was leaving, she couldn't muster the strength to pull it off. It was definitely bound to her. As was Heero, unfortunately, as was Heero. Both was symbols of her past. And both were bonded to her, whether she wanted it or not.

Sighing, she place the ring back inside her jewelry box, too tired to even close the lid. She crawled into her bed and prepared herself for a restless sleep, filled with dreams of herself and Heero.
