Review Response

Dear Sara,

I wish to tell you but then I know you won't come back and read more. :) Please don't be upset that I wrote a little more for 'Indifferent.' He/She just wrote alot more! .

Ever Thankful!CuteAiboAibo

Dear Indifferent,

It depends upon the writer if you can review or not. I just like having it open to all people because sometimes the people without accounts have the best feed back. Then again...sometimes I get a (bleep) load of spam. Yes very mysterious...I like mysteries so I tried my hand at a Gwing mystery. No there is not a previous story to this one. I'm working from the middle-ish to backwards. I decided that more people would be interested if I started with the tragedy of Ms. Noin being shot. I know I left it REALLY REALLY airy and it will begin to flow once other people review then the avalanche can really start tumbling! This is actually the first time I've been in Gwing land for fanfiction. Long time dedicated fan to the series but if you look at most of my stories I'm in Gundam Seed land! :3 You were very nice about my writing being smooth but I still know it's filled with grammar errors and probably so spelling! .

Thanks for the lengthy review!CuteAiboAibo

Dear J2040,

Very interesting name by the way. If you review again please keep it! :) Thanks for asking me to continue. I do have other chapters ready to go but encourage other people to review so you can read them! I know one of my problems is that this story doesn't have a name and a well written summary so a lot of people steer clear.

Toodles!CuteAiboAibo

It's been eight weeks since she's been shot…Relena thought taking Noin's other hand. Her brother was fast asleep on the other side of the bed grasping Noin's left hand.

"Still nothing?" Quatre asked entering the room quietly. Relena nodded before brushing through Noin's hair. Her hair was beautiful when it was long and flowing. Why did she keep it so short?

"I'm getting more and more worried about Zechs. He's so depressed. I know that her parents were going to pull the plug on her and if they do, I don't think Zechs will be able to bear her death," Relena sighed.

"I still believe that Ms. Noin will wake up. I also believe that Mr. and Mrs. Noin don't want their daughter to die yet. It's been six weeks and still nothing has happened," Quatre said thoughtfully. There was a soft voice which attracted Relena's and Quatre's attention.

"Ms. Noin?" Relena asked softly. Her eyes were still closed but she was beginning to move. Her lips moved slowly but the words didn't come out. It was amazing to see that Ms. Noin was moving.

"Oh Ms. Noin," Quatre whispered as tears came to his eyes.

"Should we wake him?" Relena asked as Noin's eyes began to open. How did I…survive…Noin thought as her eyes began to burn because of the bright lights.

"Hey," Noin said hoarsely. Relena wrapped her arms around Noin squeezing her tightly.

"Ms. Noin," she whispered softly.

"Hey not so tightly," Noin began with a whisper, "Where's your reckless brother? He's not one to sit around idly."

"He's still here I can assure you," Relena chuckled pointing at the sleeping Zechs. Oh Zechs…did you wait all this time for me? Noin thought lovingly.

"Zechs stayed here every day with you. He almost never left this room," Quatre praised. Relena released her right hand so Noin could stroke Zechs' hair.

"Come on," Relena whispered to Quatre as she excused herself from the room. Quatre followed after her knowing that Noin would love some free time with her lover.

"Oh Zechs," she whispered as she stroked his head softly. His eyes fluttered open as he sat up quickly. He relaxed tiredly before focusing on Noin's face.

"How are you feeling?" he asked going through her hair.

"Honestly…dazed, confused and in pain," Noin replied. Her voice was still pretty hoarse.

"Do you want to know how long it has been?" Zechs asked remembering how Noin used to always inform him how long he was gone. She smiled softly as she weakly grasped his hand. He covered it lovingly feeling it shake from being cold. It relaxed eventually feeling the warmth of his hands.

"Yes…I'd like that," Noin cooed softly.

"It's been three years and eight weeks," Zechs replied much to her shock. I know Zechs said something along the lines of that when he found me but I thought I just heard him wrong Noin thought. He took off his jacket wrapping it around her shoulders before resuming his position in his chair. Her skin which had been pale began to drastically change and become more life-like.

"That reminds me of a burning question that I've had for a long time. Where they kept me I wasn't able to look at a calendar or listen to news. Days just passed by with no end. How…How old am I?" Noin asked softly. It seemed liked a silly question but she was serious. He ran his hand through her hair to calm her. She was confused and unstable.

"You're 24," Zechs replied. She cringed at the thought…so much time had passed by. She was supposed to be married by now. He moved to stroking her cheek which caused her to jump. At certain times his touch was cold and clammy but so far it was warm and loving which was surprising.

"How much sleep have you been getting?" Noin asked curiously. His whole exterior looked tired, especially his face. She tried to touch his face but he only moved away.

"Enough," Zechs muttered. He had always kept up barriers, even in their most intimate moments, he still had barriers.

"You don't have to have a cold exterior anymore," Noin told him softly. She smiled warmly trying to cheer up her hollow man.

"I almost lost you," he managed to say. He looked away from her in shame. With a weak hand she brought his face and eyes back to hers.

"How come you didn't give up on me? There are other fish in the ocean," she was able to get out before feeling a pair of lips on her forehead.

"This fisherman only has his eyes only on one fish. One that almost got away," Zechs replied. Her cheeks turned slightly pink as Zechs sat on the bed with her.

"Zechs," Noin said softly.

"This time, I'm making sure that this fish isn't getting away. Lucrezia, I want you to be apart of my life. Since you've been gone, I've noticed how much I missed you…and how much I needed you," he began.

"Are you," Noin said above a whispered. She wasn't even able to finish her sentence. A small blue box appeared in her hands as an arm snaked around her waist.

"Proposing? Yes. I'm in love with you, Lu. The only person I can see myself spending the rest of my life with is with you. Lucrezia, I want you to marry me. I need you to marry me," Zechs confessed.

"Aren't you going to ask me? I haven't heard the question yet," Noin teased. She chuckled softly but groaned because of the pain residing in her side.

"Ms. Lucrezia Noin will you marry me?" Zechs asked softly.

"I thought you'd never ask. Of course…but under one condition," Noin replied straining her neck to see his face.

"What condition?" Zechs asked slipping the ring onto her finger.

"That you will let me remain by your side no matter what happens. Even if you go crazy and try to kill me," Noin soothed.

"Alright," Zechs replied. Noin focused her attention on the moving images on the television. The sound has been turned off so it wouldn't create a disturbance. He kissed the top of her head before hearing her gasp loudly. She covered her mouth staring at the image. The man on the television seemed weak and feeble. He had dark brown hair and a deep scar across his cheek.

"That's him!" she muttered pointing at the image.

"Are you sure?" Zechs asked.

"I gave him that scar," Noin growled bitterly.

Flashback

"Well aren't you feisty? I've never seen my men put so many restraints on just one women before," a man cooed touching Noin's face. Being unappreciative to the man's touching Noin spat on his face. The man cringed wiping the saliva off his face.

"Why you little bitch," one of his followers muttered hitting over her over the head. She let out a small cry before glaring at the man who hit her.

"No no, that isn't needed right now. Yes you are very feisty. Small waist, pretty face, they will gobble you up my little virgin," the man said continuing to touch her face. She moved to bite him but he withdrew his hand. He signaled his men to release her which they did reluctantly.

"Don't call me that! Why am I here anyways?! Where's Ms. Relena!" Noin barked after being released from her restraints. The man moved to hold her in his arms closely. She pushed his hand away before backing away from him. She knew that unless there was a tracker on her body it would be impossible for her allies to find her.

"You've been shot. Come here and let me help you," the man cooed noticing the bloody bicep she was holding. There were pictures of women in sexual positions plastered all over the walls. It attracted Noin's attention which shocked her. There was sickening feeling in her stomach, her heart raced, and her breath quickened.

"I don't need your help! Wha-What is this place?" Noin asked tripping over a set of stairs behind her. Her shoulder pinged with pain as she moved up the stairs. She could hear her heart beating inside her head.

"Many people call this a brothel or a gentleman's club…I just help these ladies find a good home and a good spouse. Of course it's good for the man to try them out first. Yet, you're different little virgin," he chuckled.

"YOU'RE SICK!" Noin growled as he towered above her. She continued to move away from him but he held here still. He separated her arms placing them at her side.

"You're seeing this in the wrong way. You'll learn to like this place. You'll learn to like me. I would have you go to work immediately but since you're a virgin. I can get a better and bigger profit out of you," the man replied taking hold of her neck. With his free hand he stroked her hair gently.

"Where's Ms. Relena?!" Noin demanded. What if he had her as well? Zechs would kill Noin personally if any harm happened to Relena in her care. She also used this question to distract him while she reached for a hidden knife.

"Oh I have no wish to put her to work here. I only want ransom out of her," he said nonchalantly. The two men that brought Noin into this place looked at each other weakly.

"Sir…we…we were not able to retrieve Relena Peacecraft," one of his henchmen said meekly. Noin sighed with relief…at least she knew that Ms. Relena was safe. She had almost forgot about her plan to kill him.

"What?!" her captor barked turning his head towards the man. Noin used this window of opportunity to stab him. She let out a small battle cry before stabbing the man in the face. She yanked the knife across his face as he let out a cry of pain. He stumbled off of her as she made a dash to an open door.

"Stupid girl," one of the henchmen muttered chasing after the woman. They caught up to Noin and pulled her to the floor as the man stood up. One placed a knee in her back while the other began to restrain her.

"LET GO OF ME!" Noin cried as she struggled.

"You really ARE feisty. You'll probably need more conditioning then most of the other feisty women who come here," the man chuckled touching his throbbing wound.

"I'll do it again for every woman you've hurt!" Noin growled.

"Take her away to get fitted with clothes and a collar. Oh and little virgin, you will call me master," the man snapped.

"I promise I will kill you," Noin barked before being gagged.

End Flashback

"Noin," Zechs whispered to her. She had been engulfed in her thoughts for several minutes. He turned up the volume on the television as they watched in silence. She had been leaning against him this whole time.

"Did he shoot you?" Zechs asked coldly. Even if she didn't tell him now…she knew that he would get the information out of her.

"Yes," Noin muttered. The arm around her waist twitched gently and his hand shook for a split second.

"I understand," Zechs told her. She knew the thoughts that were going through his mind. Always with the barriers…Sometimes she wished that he would just let himself tell her and show her he really felt.

"Oh Zechs…Don't blame yourself. This isn't your fault. None of this is your fault Zechs," Noin coaxed.

"I never should have left you…None of this would have ever happened," Zechs retaliated.

"Zechs we didn't know that this would happen. You can't blame yourself for something like this," Noin replied. She tried to sit up but it caused her extreme pain. Noin let out a small cry as Relena entered the room. Her face was knotted in distress and despair.

"Are you listening to what they're saying?" Relena asked closing the hospital door behind her.

"Not really," Noin began, "what is that bastard saying?"

"He's saying that YOU'RE his lover and that you've been kidnapped!" Relena replied. Noin looked at the "master's" image, she hated seeing his face. He was sobbing loudly but the tears coming down his face were not out of sentiment.

"No one should believe those crocodile tears," Noin growled.

"Lu, what exactly was your relationship with him?" Zechs asked gently. He knew that Noin could still be terrorized by the man on the inside.

"I was his favorite. He always called me little virgin… "with the best intentions" he always said. I never let him to kiss me or for myself to get drugged so I'd end up in his bed. I was his "priceless jewel." He also called me that," Noin replied. Her voice was getting weak as she closed her eyes. She felt Zechs body move up and down with his breath. It was so familiar and gentle that it caused her to relax.

"Ms. Noin," Relena said above a whisper. They sat in silence as Noin let out a deep sigh.

"Ms. Relena," she said weakly. Noin opened her eyes looking down at the ring Zechs had given her. It sparkled in the light and she eventually noticed that Zechs was holding that hand.

"Yes?" Relena replied.

"Bring me the phone," she sighed before turning her attention to her real lover. "Could you help me sit up?" She rubbed his hand lovingly to show that everything will be alright.

"What are you going to do?" Relena asked.

"I'm going to set everything right. If the media believes this sad sap story…Zechs will be demonized by the public as the crook," Noin answered. Relena saw something sparkle on her finger which caught her attention. It was a ring which made Relena smile. She knew that Zechs was going to propose to her soon after she had woken up. Every day that passed while Noin was unconscious, Zechs would take out the ring and stare at it.
