Sorry that it took me two weeks to get this up, I had originally planned on
putting this up a week ago but I couldn't because of delays. (I was being a
little lazy. .) Thank goodness that it is up now.
Disclaimer: I do not own Swiffers, (Atn: I warn those reading this that I do have an infatuation with Swiffer wet mops) nor do I own any of the Gundam Wing characters, If I did Heero would have wings...........o_o ............... ...Wait he already does if you count his wing zero Gundam. But I still don't own them. T_T The g-boys are so cute (mauls the super deformed chibi plushies of the G-boys.) ^_^
Wufei: o_O you are freaking me out woman!
Tojot: Woman?!?!?! I have a name. (Pulls out a whip and is just about to crack it over Wufei's back, when a Bandai Lawyer walks through the white door in the corner, walks up to Tojot, whispers something in her ear, takes the whip from her hand replaces it with a soft rubber flyswatter and walks back into the closet shutting the door behind him. This has Tojot totally baffled and she opens the closet door to find no one there, she looked down at her hand still clutching at the flyswatter) How did he do that?
Quatre: What did he say to you?
Tojot: Limits and liabilities and that I have to give you guys back, unmarred, as soon as I am done.
Quatre: Then why did he leave you a flyswatter?
Tojot: Even he thinks Wufei needs a beating when he gets out of line. He just gave me something that would do the job without marring him. (Mar: means to make imperfect, to damage, to flaw) better start running Wufei!!!!!!!!!! (hits Wufei over the head with a flyswatter.)
Wufei: (gets mad and starts chasing Tojot around the room.) give me that woman!!!!!!
Quatre: o_O well here is the chapter Tojot promised you.

*~*~*~
She awoke the next morning. Looking at her alarm clock that she realized she had pressed the Snooze button too many times. She shot up out of bed, but fell back down she realized that she felt a little light headed, hot, and somewhat nauseous. She felt miserable. There was a light knock on the door before it opened to reveal Ire.
"Are ye okay?" He asked. "I noticed tha' ye haven' left fer work yet." Sam all of a sudden felt something trying to come up her esophagus. She quickly managed to make it to the toilet in her bathroom before she lost it. She lost everything that was in her stomach, which wasn't very much. She sat there weakly against the wall after it, all she could hear was a rushing sound in her ears, she could specks in her eyes, and she felt cold all over. Ire put his hand on her forehead and gave her a quick diagnosis.
"Looks like the 24 hour flu." He told her, Relena noticed that her hearing was improving after the unwelcome purging of her system. But the purging had done nothing to rid her of the pain.
"I guess I'll be the one t' call ye in sick." Ire continued as he helped her back to the bed. He went downstairs and dialed the number to the coffee shop.
"H'lo, Sam is lil' under the weather t'day."
"No, she won' be able t' make it."
"'Kay, thankye..... bye." He said and hung up. He climbed the stairs to Sam's room and told her not to worry, and went to go make her some chicken soup. Relena looked around the room and saw Heero's diary on the bedside table. 'So it wasn't a dream.' She thought as she picked it up. She opened it to where she had left off the night before.
*~*~*~
"....... Doctor J had sent me on various different missions to earth before operation meteor. One of which I remember clearly was when I was to help with a rebel attack on an OZ base. I was to be their undercover spy. It had originally been planned that the rebels would hide at St. Gabriels school.........."
*~*~*~
'So that was him.' Relena realized a small grin. Ire came in with the soup and left. The day was obviously going to be a long one. At least she did have something to do. She decided to take a long bath. She took the diary with her.
*~*~*~
"There was one mission in particular that I had been sent on before operation meteor that disturbed me the most. I was to destroy an Oz base on the colony, I had all of the explosives set and I would set them off later that night. I had managed to do it without being detected and no one had a clue that I had been there. I jumped over the fence easily and ran quite a distance from it. I stopped, flipping onto my back, I was breathing heavily from the escape. My eyes where shut. I suddenly felt a shadow looming over me. I opened my eyes to see a little girl. She asked me if I was lost. I knew that I had been lost ever since I was born and I told her so. She had a little puppy with her named Mary. She told that she wasn't lost and that she was taking her puppy for a walk. Before she left she gave me a yellow flower before 'Mary' dragged her off.
"That night blew up the base, my mission was complete. But something happened that is hard to forgive myself for. An explosion spread too far and took out a civilian area. I only wanted to take out the base. I knew I had killed that girl and her dog. Once I first saw the face and lifestyle of one of my victims, I started to have regrets about what I had done. That was the night I first cried out of sorrow, while holding that yellow flower.
"The next morning I scoured the demolished civilian area. All I was able to find was Mary. It was a painful sight.
*~*~*~
'He was responsible for that explosion.' Relena thought realizing that she had been there when it had happened. She knew Heero was truly sorry for all the pain he had brought on his victims, that was probably why he went to the family of Marshall Noventa to ask forgiveness. Relena continued to read finding out that Dakim Barton ordered Doctor J to retrain Heero to be heartless, but Doctor J instead trained him to hide his humanity.
'So that's why he's so cold.' Sam thought. She felt a twinge of nausea come back to haunt her. She put the diary down and pulled herself out of the tub, she had to be careful, if she went too quickly she might have passed out. So she took her time at a slow and gentle pace. She pulled the towel off the rack and wrapped it around herself and prepared herself for another unwelcome oncoming purging.
*~*~*~
Heero stood in front of Une's desk, waiting for orders from her. She had already sent him the details of the threat via e-mail.
"So Heero, how is the weather in Bantry Bay?" Une asked.
"Mild and wet." Heero replied briskly without emotion. Une always found it hard to strike up a conversation with this former Gundam pilot.
"Well then, getting on to business. Your first mission is to infiltrate their base of operations and get copy of the floor plan as well as any other important info you can pick up." Une told him.
"Mission accepted." Heero replied. He left Une's office to start his new mission. As he was walking down the hall to his office, he encountered Hilde with an unshaven Duo chasing after her. They both said a quick 'Hi' to Heero before returning to their argument. Usually Duo would bug the crap out of people that he hadn't seen for a while. It was obvious that Duo was distracted by something else. Heero overheard their little argument.
"Come on Hilde, will you please let me sleep in the bed tonight, the couch isn't overly comfy." Duo said stretching his back.
"The only way I'll let back into bed, Duo, is to remove that furry beast off your chin and for good." Hilde said angrily.
"But Hilde, I like it."
"Either it or a good night's rest, which one would you choose." Duo seemed to be losing the argument to his wife.
"But.... But..." Duo dragged on.
"But what! Duo until you shave that thing off, you're not getting anything from me. That includes: Your home-cooked meal, your bed, a new container of Swiffer wet mop cloths, and SEX!" Hilde yelled as she walked of. The last word seemed to ring in the ears of all those presently in the area. Duo blushed a bright red as soon as he heard her list of things he would not get from her.
"Ouch!" Trowa said as he passed by looking back at the frustrated woman who made her way to the elevator.
"Duo just shave it off. It's not worth it." Heero said.
"You should talk Mr. My-Girlfriend-Ran-Away." Duo scowled. What Duo said hit a sore spot. Heero's hand went into a fist at his side and was now shaking.
"Duo it might be a good time to run." Trowa calmly told Duo. Duo realized his mistake and ran for dear life with Heero hot on his heels.
"DUO!!!!!!!!" Heero yelled as he chased Duo throughout the Preventer office building to the back alley where a fight ensued. It didn't last very long, since Duo promised that he would never bring up the subject of Relena's disappearance around Heero. Duo had a disgruntled look on his face once he came back inside. He grumbled a little bit and went into the office that he shared with Heero to make a very important call.
"Hilde, Make room in the bed tonight, 'cause the furry beast is coming off." Duo told his wife over the phone. Heero, who was twelve feet away, could have sworn he heard sounds of happiness coming from the woman on the other end as Duo hung up the phone. Heero had been a little curious about something since he had heard the argument between Duo and Hilde.
"By the way, Duo, why did Hilde mention a Swiffer wet mop?" Heero asked as his eyebrow rose.
"Don't Ask!" Duo yelled. [Atn: If you do want to know stay tuned till after the Author's Note for a Humorous Extra. ^_^ ]
*~*~*~
Sam woke to a new day feeling refreshed and healthy. She went about her normal daily routine. She knew Heero wasn't going to come which depressed her a little but she got through. She was surprised the she had lasted this long and hadn't been found out.
Everyone was acting a little differently toward her now because Sam had seemed so fond of this young stranger. And now that he was gone the guys started lining up to ask her out. She turned them all down and told them that she wasn't ready for any relationship at the time. Having Heero there seemed to spice up her life a little bit even if he had no clue that what he was looking for was right under his nose.
*~*~*~
"So how'd it turn ou'?" Kate asked Ire two months after Heero had left.
"She did fine. Though she seems a lil' broken up by the fact that 'e be gone." Ire told Kate over the phone. Kate had gotten a little bored again.
"Well why don' I give 'im a lil' nudge in the righ' dire'tion, withou' givin' e'rythin' away?" Kate told Ire mischievously.
"Sh' said tha' 'e be back soon, 'ow soon me don' know." Ire said. "I know she be in love with the young fellow. Bu' she don' feel ready enou' t' tell 'im the truth yet."
"Well don' ye worry 'bout a thin'. These thin's will come ou' in due time. Hopefully it be b'fer I go." Kate said.
"Dear child, has it g'ten worse?" Ire questioned.
"Aye, it has." Kate answered grimly.
"An' the docter said that thar was nothin' 'e coul' do?"
"Aye. Ire don' worry 'bout me, I be fine fer the meantime."
"Kate, are ye sure ye don' want t' come home?" Ire continued.
'Ne'er more sure than anythin'."
"Well then God be with ye."
"Fare well ol' Ire."
*~*~*~
Relena could barely read very much of the diary since her work schedule was very busy, but she tried her hardest to find time to read it. She would find a little time before she would go to bed and read an entry a night. It had been three months since Heero's hasty departure from Bantry Bay. And she had found an entry about her.
*~*~*~
"........ Relena is different than any woman that I have known. She is a strong person and I admire her for that. I admire her ability to forgive people even if they have done her harm in the past. Many don't do that and continue to hold a grudge, which I think is foolish. Peace isn't achieved through having a grudge.
"I have found that it was Relena who managed to uncover my hidden humanity. She insists on many strange things, I find her rather eccentric. Not many women become Vice-Foreign Minister at age 16. I have also found that, unlike many politicians, she doesn't abuse her power for personal gain. She rarely ever thinks of herself and has a goal to bring peace to the Earth and the colonies.
"Ever since I met Relena, it has been hard to get her off my mind. Somehow I find her attractive, in a distracting sort of way. Even if she may have tried to meddle in my missions, I think they wouldn't have turned out any easier for me, even if she hadn't meddled. She is a smart woman.........."
*~*~*~
She stared at what she had read. He had found her attractive and distracting. She gave a slight smile at the newly acquired knowledge, and thought back to the year of the war. He had given her small hints of interest all throughout the war. She realized how much she missed him and that Prussian blue stare of his. She closed the diary and went downstairs. She found Ire in his easy chair watching a little TV. She sat down on the couch and joined him. He was watching the news. The Reporter was talking about the Preventer's successful attempt on foiling an organizations plot to start another war. At that point Ire clicked the TV off.
"Is thare somethin' ye wan'ed t' talk 'bout?" Ire asked soberly.
"I think tha' I be ready t' leave."
"Why?"
"Somethin' has come up, an' I feel like I 'ave been away from me family fer long enou'." Sam said
"How are ye gonna do tha'? 'Specially when ye look like this." Ire indicated to her physical appearance.
"I no' goin' back as Relena Darlian, I be goin' as Sam. I also won' be 'xactly in thair lives." She told him.
"Wha' do ye plan on doin'?"
"I am goin' t' join Preven'ers."
"When do ye leave?"
"In two weeks." She told him. She knew that she was going to miss this area, it's people and it's laid-back lifestyle. A week later, Sam sat on the beach not far from the house looking out into the Atlantic Ocean, hoping to calm her uneasy spirits. She always came out whenever frustrated and lately she had been coming often. She had already told the owner of the coffee shop that she was leaving. She knew Heero was going to return, she had to think of some excuse on why she left. It really wasn't too hard to find something.

PLLLEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEZZZZZZZZZZEEEEEEEE Review, I practically thrive on them. I'll try to go a little faster on chapter 7, I promise. The more you hassle me the faster I produce.
*~*~*~ Humorous Extra *~*~*~
At 11:00 am silence still eluded the place at Maxwell Salvage Company. Hilde was reading a romance novel on the old couch, unknowing of Duo's exact location on the premises. She had wondered if he had even gotten up for the day. Duo always slept in. She'd have to admit, she did to. It came with the satisfaction of having your own company. It was normal for them both to sleep in especially after the hot night of passion that they had the night before. When she heard off key singing coming from the kitchen she pulled out her new camera phone and quickly pushed a button and started filming. Hilde no longer wondered where her husband was now.
"You make me feel......" Duo burst through the door that led from the kitchen, her jaw just dropped in surprise at Duo's sudden entrance, and Hilde's eyes were going like o_O.
"You make me feel......." He was in a pair of yellow smiley-faced boxers with a black t-shirt and white socks as he slid across the wood floor. His hair was messy and he had a pair of headphones on. He was wielding a Swiffer and dancing to the music.
"You make me feel like a natural woman......woman." He sang aloud to one of Hilde's CDs as he cleaned the floors with the Swiffer. He still hadn't noticed Hilde on the couch. She had even caught him in the most hilarious position with one leg up, his head back and a Swiffer in one hand being used as an imitation microphone. He hadn't noticed the camera since his back was turned to her, and he kept on singing to the music and dancing with the Swiffer. He went through the hallway and through another door and all was silent again in that side of the building. Hilde smiled at the incriminating footage that she had caught of her husband. 'Good for blackmail' she thought.
*~*~*~ 2nd Author's Note *~*~*~
That was for your reading pleasure. You know those times when you think your alone in the house and you decide to do something really embarrassing only to find out that there was someone there? Well for Duo that was one of those times. I hope you thought it was funny 'cause I sure did.

"You make me feel......." He was in a pair of yellow smiley-faced boxers with a black t-shirt and white socks as he slid across the wood floor. His hair was messy and he had a pair of headphones on. He was wielding a Swiffer and dancing to the music.
"You make me feel like a natural woman......woman." He sang aloud to one of Hilde's CDs as he cleaned the floors with the Swiffer. He still hadn't noticed Hilde on the couch. She had even caught him in the most hilarious position with one leg up, his head back and a Swiffer in one hand being used as an imitation microphone. He hadn't noticed the camera since his back was turned to her, and he kept on singing to the music and dancing with the Swiffer. He went through the hallway and through another door and all was silent again in that side of the building. Hilde smiled at the incriminating footage that she had caught of her husband. 'Good for blackmail' she thought.

That was for your reading pleasure. You know those times when you think your alone in the house and you decide to do something really embarrassing only to find out that there was someone there? Well for Duo that was one of those times. I hope you thought it was funny 'cause I sure did.
