Disclaimers: I do NOT own Gundam. I am simply borrowing the characters for this story. ^_^

This story takes place after Endless Waltz. If you have not seen it, I suggest you watch it because it was cool! (hehehe) I would like to say that the ending for you people who did see it kind of sucked! Don't worry (to the ppl. who haven't seen it), I'll take place there! ^_~

This is only one part!

In the ending where the theme of Gundam Endless Waltz was playing, we see Relina Peacecraft giving another speech. Heero was watching her from the second level, hiding in the curtains. Taking one last glance at Relina, he leaves and the credits appear. (What a crappy ending!!! LOL)

7 months later (since Endless Waltz took place in December), Relina Peacecraft is enjoying her free time of summer.

Relina's P.O.V.


The sky was light blue and not a single cloud in sight. Beautiful birds are in the sky flying with joy. Finally there is peace. There are no tensions between the colonies of Earth and Space. I can finally relax and start enjoying the book I have been anxious to read for a LONG time. Grabbing the hardcover book, I neatly tuck it in my purse. Before I leave my room, I take a glance of myself in the mirror. Wearing my favourite lavender skirt and white sleeveless t-shirt I smile with anticipation of the images in the book.

Laying the blanket I brought along with me, I sit below my tree. The apple tree was tall and allowed many birds to build their nests. For some peculiar reason, I feel relax and content around nature. As I started to read, I listened to the surroundings around me. The birds were chirping happily in the tree. Smiling calmly, I began to read my book. Noin had recommended this book. I had never considered her as a 'book worm' but after the colonies have regained peace, we had more time to know about each other. She had told me before she left to go into outer space to never give up hope in love because that was what the genre of the book. LOVE. What was it anyway?

Is it just attraction toward the opposite sex? Heero. I wonder where he was. I have not seen him since that night I held him...

"I shall put Mariemala to rest."

"Heero!"

Marlemala gasped and silently said,"Arigatou." and fell asleep from the pain of the bullet.

"I won't kill anyone anymore..." he dropped his gun.

His eyes started to close and started to lose his balance...

"HHEEERRO!" I cried and immediately caught him before he fell to the ground. He felt so warm.

"It's finally over." I whispered to him as he fell into a silent sleep. I closed my eyes and brushed his bangs away from his face.

That was the first and last time I would have him in my arms. My eyes started to fill with unshed tears. I miss him...

The ambulance came and brought him to the nearest hospital. Of course I was by his side. Lying on the bed in the hospital, I watched him get his rest. He had a few cuts and bruises but nothing he could not handle. I left his room to get some water, when I came back he was gone! At first, I must admit I was scared that someone might have taken him from me, but I realized that he probably woke up and jumped out of the window. I ran to the window, and saw a bunch a people outside. I was sure that Heero would be all right. He was always independent.

The tears finally fell down my cheek and onto the book. Leaving two wet spots on page 114. I could not stand this anymore! Heero.

I slammed the book into my purse and decided to go back to the kingdom. I could not stand this emptiness any longer. My heart ached for him. I'll admit I love him.

The sun was beginning to fall and I knew that everyone would worry about me.

I was right. Sally Po was relieved that I had come back safely. 'Geez! Why does everyone worry about me? I'm 17 now. I can take care of myself'

The next day

I woke up early and decided to read the book at my usual place, underneath the tree. I snuck out of my room by jumping out of the window. My window was near a tall tree, its' branches reached toward the glass. It was too tempting. Grabbing the branch, I slowly climbed down the tree by the other branches like a ladder.

When I got to my usual place, I noticed that a few apples had fallen from the tree. Since I had not eaten breakfast, I ate them. The shiny rounded red apple I held was delicious. The juice was sweet. It was perfect.

I opened my book to page 114 again and began to read the story. As I continued to read, I felt someone's was on me. Who could it be? It better not be the guards! I looked around my surrounding. I could see everything. This tree I leaned against was the only one on this hill. I could not see anyone. I began to get a little cautious as I sat back in my usual spot. I heard the branches of the tree scraped each other. I looked above me and there stood someone. His prussian blue eyes gleamed sharply back at me. Dark brown hair covered most of his eyes.
'HEERO' My eyes grew larger and were excited. I stood up and just stared at him in disbelief. Am I imagining this?

"Heero, wwhat are you doing up there?" I stuttered and licked my tongue nervously.

He jumped down and stood so close to me. I held my breath for a minute until he spoke...

"Making sure you were safe," he answered.

"Why would you care?" I said with my voice breaking up.

I removed my eyes from his and stared at the ground. My heart was beating faster and faster with excitement but my mind was telling me 'he's only here to hurt you'. My eyes started to fill up with unshed tears but they slowly fell.

I felt his warm fingers wiping away my tears. I stared at him with disbelief. His eyes were so cold but somehow it was different. "I do care," he answered me as he came closer to me.

I felt intimidated by him. He grew taller than me and his arms were so strong. I slowly took a step back toward the trunk of the tree. I saw a flash of pain in his eyes. He looked away from me and stared into the sky. Oh God! I hurt him. I immediately took a step closer to him.

"What's wrong Heero?"

"Nothing," he spoke back with no emotion.

He was suppressing the pain I brought upon him. My eyes softened gently and reach for his left hand. It was bandaged.

"You're hurt!" my voice was concern.

"No," he replied with that same monotone.

I gently touched his hand. He turned his back away from me, but before he did, I saw a shock of pain in his eyes. He was hurt! I ran in front of him and glared at him with fear.

"Heero, let me see." I pleaded with sad eyes.

I reached for his injured hand and saw blood in a certain area of the bandaged. My eyes were shocked! He was bleeding.

He looked away from me when he saw my eyes widened. My right hand reached for his face and I made him face me again. I kissed his fingers. His eyes were shocked and so was I! What the hell was I doing? His right hand touched my face. His eyes began to soften at me and touched my face with his right hand. His injured hand wrapped around my waist and brought me closer to him. Was he going to kiss me!!! I've never been kissed by anyone! He felt me shaken and slowly brought my face toward his chest. He was warm like that night. I brought my hands toward his chest. My right hand could feel his heart beating.

I looked up at him. My face was so close to his. Just a few inches away. I smiled slightly to tell him that I wasn't afraid anymore. My hands slowly crawled up this chest to his neck. I was going to make the move! (Hehehe ^_^) I tiptoed up to him so my face would be closer to his. Man! He was tall! (LOL) Just a few centimeters and our lips would be close. I took a breath and used my hands to tell him to come closer. He responded and kissed my lips. He kissed me gently. He softly brushed his lips in the lightest of caresses. They were warm and he kissed me with a gentleness and sincerity that I had not expected that Heero possessed.

I thought I was suppose to kiss him but he was in control! (LOL) He slowly increased the passion of his raw emotion. I fell limp in his chest. I leaned hesitantly into the kiss. We parted, and I slowly opened my eyes to meet his. The kiss had been long and my breath was ragged. I was trembling because I missed his warmth on my lips. His arms were around me tightly.

He took my hands and led me to the tree. I sat against the trunk while he leaned against my legs. I read my book aloud to him and he slowly drifted off to sleep. I stopped reading and just glanced at his calm face. He looked so peaceful and innocent.

"Aishiteru Heero," I whispered into his ear.

His eyes opened slightly and answered back, "Aishiteru Relina," with a smile.
