Balcony
“I’m really glad that we came here today,” said Catherine.
“Me too, we need to do this more often,” replied Trowa.
“So, how did the other guys react to the news about you and me?”
“They were pretty surprised, almost as much as I was when I first found out.”
“The girls were pretty shocked too, though it seemed like everyone had some sort of surprise in store for us,” said Catherine with a smile.
“I’ll say.”
Catherine and Trowa then looked up to stare at the stars. The stars were out in full display, and the moon, while no quite full, still shone down brightly on them.
“It’s so beautiful tonight,” said Catherine softly.
“It sure is.”
Catherine glanced over at Trowa and let her eyes linger there for a moment. His eyes were gazed up at the night sky and seemed to be transfixed there. She took a moment to admire all of his features. He always looked handsome to her, and seeing him standing in the gentle glow of the moonlight only made him look better. She suddenly wanted him to wrap his arms around her and hold her against his chest. She wanted to feel her body against his; she wanted to press her lips to his…
“Snap out of it!” she thought to herself.
She quickly turned her head so that she wasn’t facing him; her face burned bright red. Trowa noticed her quick movement and looked at her.
“Something wrong?”
Catherine lowered her head, “No I’ve just been doing a lot of thinking.”
“About what?”
Catherine bit her lip slightly, “ Well… do you ever regret taking that test.”
Trowa looked at her puzzled, “What do you mean?”
“I mean, do you think we would have been better off not knowing we weren’t related.”
Trowa thought for a moment, “I’m not sure, I know I was pretty disappointed when I found out the truth. I really did like the idea of having a sister, since I never did know my family. But if we didn’t take that test, than I would always be thinking about it in the back of my mind. I guess I could say it was better to know the truth, than to always wonder what if, but in reality I still don’t know for sure, it’s kind of complicated.”
Catherine moved next to him and placed a hand on his shoulder.
“I’m sorry for bringing this up; it’s just been something that’s been on my mind for a while.”
Trowa looked at her, “Don’t worry about it, it’s good that we talk about these kinds of things. And I want you to know that despite everything we’ve been through, I’m glad that you still want to be a part of my life.”
Catherine smiled and nodded, “Me too, I couldn’t imagine my life right now without you in it, thank you Trowa.”
She then wrapped both her arms around him in a gentle hug; Trowa smiled and did the same.
Gardens
Noin and Quatre were walking silently on the pathway through the garden, stopping once and awhile to look at the flowers. They didn’t say much to each other, and after a few minutes, Quatre stopped and looked at Noin.
“So Noin, what did you want to talk to me about?”
Noin looked Quatre in the eye; she quickly leaned forward, kissed him on the cheek, and held him close. Quatre was at first taken aback but quickly returned the hug.
“What was that for?”
Noin nuzzled her head in his shoulder, “Quatre…I want to tell you that I’m sorry, about everything. You’ve done so much for me but all I do is bring you down. I’m so sorry, I want you to know that I’m grateful, I’m grateful that I have someone who I know will never hurt me, and will always be there when I need him to. I know I wouldn’t be here right now if it wasn’t for you, and I’ll forever be in your debt because of it. Thank you Quatre.”
Quatre smiled and looked at her, “Noin, I forgive you, and I want you to know that I’m going to do everything I can to help you get through this. I made a promise to Zechs that I would take care of you, and I don’t plan on going back on that, ever.”
Tears fell freely from her eyes as they held each other while the moonlight shined down brightly on them.
The Next Morning
The next morning there was a huge breakfast prepared for them as one by one, everyone woke up. During the breakfast they reminisced about the events of the previous day, and planned out what they were going to do with the rest of the day. After they finished eating the festivities continued through most of the day. It had been a wonderful reunion; each person wished it would never end. But as the sun started to go down, they all knew it had to come to an end. As they all headed out to their cars Heero talked to the boys to remind them about the trip next month. Relena took the opportunity to call over the girls. She gave them each a small folder that had more detailed info on their Gundams. She then made them each swear not to say a word to the guys. They then each said their goodbyes and one by one, they all left, until just Heero and Relena were left.
Relena smiled and put her arm around his waist, “That was so much fun we have to do that again.”
Heero grinned, “No question about it, well I’m kind of tired, I need to get some sleep.”
Relena nodded, “Me too, but before we do,” she placed a hand on his chest and kissed him, “How about we have some more alone time?”
Heero smiled, “Baby you read my mind.”
They shut the door behind them and ran up to their room.
Next Day
Heero woke up to the sound of someone knocking at the door. He quickly got out of bed, put on some boxers and a robe, and made his to the front door. When he opened the door, he saw a large envelope lying on the door step. He shut the door behind him and opened it, inside was blank DVD.
“What the hell is this?”
He put the DVD in his player and sat down on the couch. He pressed play, and an image immediately appeared onscreen. Heero dropped the remote, his mouth was agape, and his eyes open wide with horror.
“My god!”
Relena walked downstairs to see Heero frozen in place by the TV.
“Heero, are you okay?”
Heero didn’t answer, his eye still glued to the TV. Relena walked over to see what he was looking at. She looked at the TV and screamed, there on the TV was a smiling Kale Young.
End Ch-5
End Part 4
I think I was a little off on my prediction I thought this Part would be easier to re-do because I figured I wouldn’t have to change much. Boy was I wrong, anyways in the next chapter expect to see even more big changes. For now, loved it? Hated it? Let me know, I love getting feedback on my work.
Also besides being on FF.net, I’m also hosted on a site called gwdensetsu.net It’s a really good GW site with a lot of quality fics (Plus it’s one of the only GW sites left that is updated consistently), and the woman who runs the site, Chihaya, is a very talented artist with a massive collection of GW Fan art. So yeah, check it out, because it’s really awesome.
