gundam wing (d1) heero yuy

04

[Heero is once again at the bar, but this time he's not trying to drink himself into oblivion. That hadn't worked out as well has he had hoped, leaving with a rather nasty hangover. While there is a bottle of opened vodka on the counter, he's not drinking it.

Instead he's using it to disinfect a shrapnel wound to his upper arm. The left one again, right under a nearly healed gun shot wound. It seemed as though every time he stepped foot onto Duo's reality he somehow managed to take a hit to the arm. One of these days he was going to come back to the plane missing an arm. The thought had him slightly amused. How would he explain that one back home?

Dabbing the wound with a cotton ball gently, he set it down once he was finished and reached for the suture kit. Yes, he was going to actually do this to himself, in the open for all to see. Not that it bothered him or anything. The bar happened to be the most convenient place to do this. Vodka made a wonderful disinfectant and was readily available so there was no need to head home and grab the proper cleaner.

Grabbing the already opened kit he set to work. The most impressive part was the fact he was hardly making a face while doing it.]

[Now that really gained her attention. As far as she knows something like this wasn't supposed to happen. If.. she was doing her job properly which worried her.]

..Assignment? Heero, what happened?

Nothing that concerns you. [Turning away from her, he packed up the remains of the kit and set it aside.]

[She watched him turn from her and start putting things away.]

If people are getting hurt, then I want to know. Maybe there is something I can do to help.

There's nothing for you to be involved in. [He shot her a look.]

Drop it.

[She sighed but let it go for the moment.]

Fine. But, I wish you would trust me at some point Heero.

[Hearing her sigh, his expression and tone softened.]

I do.

Sometimes, I have to wonder.

[She quietly ordered herself a drink and took a sip.]

[Grabbing himself a glass, he decides to use the vodka for drinking. For a while he sits there silently, deciding whether or not to share the information.]

It has nothing to so with our reality. [He takes a sip, deciding she could know this much.] The war never ended in Duo's verse. I'm helping him end it.

[Her glass paused part way to her lips. So that was the issue. At least now she knew. In some ways it eased her own worries, but brought up questions.]

I hate to admit that knowing it doesn't have to do with my future makes me feel better. But, you know how I feel about violence...

It's the only solution.

How can you be so sure? I do not think violence should ever be the only solution to any conflict. There has to be another option.

[Though, she had a feeling she was speaking to a wall on this and her lack of knowledge about Duo's world disturbed her slightly. What exactly happened. She glanced back at him for a moment before taking another sip of her drink.]

Maybe I can help. Please, I don't want to see you or Duo hurt.

[Especially him.]

[As much as he would have liked to believe her, simply talking wasn't going to fix the mess in Duo's verse. Shaking his head, he took another sip and reminding himself not to get drunk this time.]

No. [He was going to put that idea to rest, now. There was no way he would allow her to endanger herself.]

You're needed in our reality.[But that wasn't the only reason.]

[Somehow she knew she wasn't going to win this particular argument. Which, made her worry a little more about him.]

I know that Heero, but... No one should have to suffer. And..I don't like the fact that you are fighting again.

[He decided to brush it off and take another sip of his drink.]

[She sighed softly and took a sip from her own drink. Even if he was just going to brush off part of her worries, she was still going to speak her opinion.]

Fighting should never be the answer to conflict and I do hope that someone will stand up and say enough in Duo's universe and stop the fighting through peaceful means. I know that I don't know the entire situation but, that doesn't stop me from hoping for the best or wanting to help.

Romefeller is more vicious in this world. You tried and it failed. [And left his counterpart stuck watching over her.]

So there is no other option.

[His words made her freeze. The hand holding the glass tightened, her knuckles turning white as she gazed up at him. More than anything, shock and disbelief graced her features.

Her.. counterpart failed? How.. in the Earth sphere did that happen!? Understandably, Relena was... speechless for once.]

[Her shock was more than understandable. Things had been different for the both of them and thankfully the world was willing to listen to her. Despite the couple upsets, things would remain peaceful.]

[Setting his glass down, he then placed his hand on hers.]

You won't fail in our verse. That's all that matters.

[For the briefest of moments, she was distracted by his touch only to have her disbelief and worry over ride that distraction.]

...How can you be so sure?

Because I believe in you.

[He's going to act all nonchalant about that of course.]

[Even though he was acting nonchalant, she couldn't help but take it to heart. Relena knew he meant it and that made her smile and relax slightly. He was right, she wouldn't fail. If he could keep fighting, so could she just in her own way.

Still, she wished he didn't have to resort to violence in Duo's world.]

Thank you, that means a lot to me Heero.

[Especially when he was the one to say it.]

It's nothing. [She was much stronger than he was anyway. After the year of peace, he knew she could keep it going for a very long time.]

[Relena remained silent for a few moment and let herself relax a little more. With him here, it always made things better. She covered his hand with her free one and sighed softly.]

Still, thank you. I honestly don't know what I would do without you.

[He let her rest her hand on his for a moment before pulling it away.]

You'd manage just fine.

Perhaps, perhaps not.

[She let him pull away knowing better than to try and keep him there. Relena still felt that he was important to her even if he denied it.]
