Funiculi-Funicula


This is crazy! Honestly, I am a terrorist and I am not a relationship counsellor, I have my own problems thank you very much! Well, I keep on telling them to go find someone else but I guess I must have a sign on my forehead that says Quatre’s-open-Welcome-to-tell-all-your-problems-to-me-because-I-am-listening-and-I-don’t-have-a-life! Grr!!!

So I told him to meet me in the special spot that we always go to, to escape the craziness of our humble abode. So, he told me, “yes, I’ll see you there tonight…” and with that he vanished into the cockpit of Heavyarms.

So, all I had to do was wait for the sun to go down…wrong: it was summer equinox and the sun wouldn’t go down for a bit more...only a few minutes but still, to me, that was a lifetime!

Then it finally happened, the sun went down and I walked to the little grove and waited, and I watched as the sun disappeared behind the line of trees and as the moon made its climb towards the centre of the sky…and then I watched it come back down and seen the sun go up and I sat there, dumbfounded, he forgot about me…the love of my life forgot! Well, so long for that, I thought! No more mister nice-Quatre! I had enough! I picked up the small pack of food that I had and hiked up the mountains and farther away from the house, blinded by my stupid rage and spitefulness and all I could see when I got down to the bottom of the mountain was Trowa’s face all contorted with worry for me.

Boy, was I wrong…


Aisséra, Nanninè’, mme ne sagliétte,
Tu saje addó
(Tu saje addó) (2)

So yeah, I ran were I could no longer see Trowa or hear everyone complain, I ran and I ran until I couldn’t run anymore…and still I walked. I thought of staying in the wilderness and never returning and turning into a wild man and having only the wild animals for companions, it seemed like a very nice idea at the time, but then I thought, ‘nah, not right now I have too many people relying on me.

But then it struck me, ‘he probably doesn’t even want to see me, he’s probably repulsed by me!! Omigosh! I have been so stupid and blind! I guess I better start making my home, right. Here. Where he couldn’t get me.

I wandered a bit from where I wanted to stay and I saw a beautiful little cabin. It was a little in need of repair but it was ideal for me…far away and shelter from storms and from anything else that might happen to cross my path.

I built a fire the way I was taught so that it wouldn’t emit too much smoke or light. It was a warm night and the stars were shining beautifully, it seemed to be a fairy tale. The tranquility of the forests seemed almost forbidden.

Then it happened, I heard something, my ears-sharply trained, but not as good as Heero’s…it is true what they say, and I’ll say it again just to keep you in tuned, he * is* the perfect soldier. Anyways, I got up and picked a stick out of the fire and waved it, thinking it was Trowa.

Oh no, I forgot totally about him! Quatre, I’m so sorry! It was Heavyarms, I was working on Heavyarms! So, I went crashing through the bushes to get him, it was afternoon the next day and he wasn’t in the house and he wasn’t in the special spot… he must’ve been pretty angry…well, he has been acting strange lately. Duo said so too, like really callous and uncaring-all of those characteristics that are not Quatre, right?- so I ran up the mountain and back down… the other side.

What if he doesn’t want to see me? I thought. I know that my nature is the quiet one and reserved but facing the fact that I might loose my little angel because of my thoughtlessness was unbearable! So I ran and I ran, looking for any sign of him, it was getting dark and the stars were, one by one peeking in the sky, the moon hovering over the horizon.

I breathed in deep and smelled a fire, it was Quatre! It had to be! So I crashed through the bushes like a blind Rhino until I reached a log cabin. “QUATRE!!” I yelled as I saw him standing by a rotten log cabin with a stick in his hand, he was waving it in front of a creature that was growling and pacing, it was a mountain cat and it seemed quite hungry. It turned and lowered itself to pounce and turned on me instead. I did what every human would do, I crouched and hid my face with my arms.

That’s were I am leaving you because…

BANG!!

That was a gunshot? The cat fell, sprawling on me, I sigh, I found him and someone stopped a cat from eating me! Boys, have I got some ‘esplainin to do!’ Desi Arnes From I love Lucy would say when she got in trouble.

“Gooddy! Good shot Hee-chan!” came a voice from the direction of my head. I look up to see Duo and Heero standing over me.

“Why’d you follow me?” Hey I had to know!

Heero shrugged “because we thought you might forget that you’re supposed to be the animal trainer here, they just end up dead when they deal with me…”

Duo snorted “among other things…” He said as he lifted a fine brow “I’m hungry..” Duo cried abruptly.

I had to push the cat off of me while the others were eating from Quatre’s supplies of food he brought in a little leather bag. Quatre looked up “Te voglio bene assai ma tanto tanto bene sai.” (5) He said as he smiled beautifully at me, the words ran through my ears like a golden melody-sappy huh?

“T’amo..” (6) I find myself whispering…I think ‘and so much more!

“Non ti scordar di me!” (7) he cried.

Heero glanced at him and then me “Speak a language we all know please.” He muttered.

“Gomen.” Quatre said as he stuffed a sandwich in my hand.
