Gundam Wing Fan Fiction ❯ Friendship ❯ Finale ( Chapter 2 )

Chapter One

"All right, so let's get to the point. I'm going to go through how we…meaning me and Heero… came to be. Not like anyone cares to listen, but sometimes it's good to get these things out. Sort of `reveal the truth' if you wish to refer to it in such a way."

"Go on Mr. Maxwell." The deep voice interrupted me. I was surprised and caught off guard. I had completely forgotten that I had been telling my tale to someone. I'm bad about that, talking to myself I mean. The man cleared his throat and repeated himself again. "Mr. Maxwell? Are you ready to continue?"

I sighed, I was getting a bad vibe form this guy anyways, all wanting to know about Heero and such. I was probably being over protective, but hey, I can't change the way I am. That's just me!

"Actually, I think that's enough for today." I said as I got up from my chair and grabbed my jacket. I felt the other man's hand come up to grab my wrist. I turned quickly, my `fight or flight' response kicking in, ready to act at any moment. I really didn't like this guy! I had met him over a month ago and ever since he found out I was friend with Mr. Prussian eyes, he had been so curious to how we came to be. We'd been having these `friendship' talks for some time now. I don't know, he seemed…well I don't know! He just freaks me out.

I looked down at my wrist and raised an eyebrow as the man spoke again, "Please come again, I look forward to our next conversation. Maybe we can have it at you and Heero's place next time. You know, you've never invited me over before…" he trailed, the words rolling off his tongue.

"Yeah, will do." I lied as I quickly exited.

I walked back to my apartment, jacket slung over my arm. I looked up at the sky, a slight rain had started falling. It sort of created a hazy effect with all the mist surrounding you. I walked to the bus stop, climbing on and making my way to the back of the bus. As soon as I sat down, my thoughts began to come again; the past years flooding back to me in a pile of memories.

I was remembering the way Heero had smiled at me for the first time. It seemed the first smile he had ever attempted, that cute little half smirk. I also remembered the way he looked when I had stumbled into the safe house bloodied and bruised. That concerned look, the way someone looks at you to show you that they care.

The bus came to a screeching halt, breaking me from my thoughts as I slammed up against the seat; my face leaving a print on the brown leathery fabric.

"Oy…" I trailed off, rubbing my cheek a bit. I peered up over my seat to see what was causing such an abrupt halt. I looked forward and noticed that the driver had exited the bus. I looked in front of me and noticed that no one else was on the bus either. I blinked a few times. Something weird was definitely going on here. Man, this has been one freaky day! I got up and made my way towards the front of the bus. The rain had started pouring by now, coming down in big raindrops. I looked around…everywhere in any direction was deserted. I shuddered, this feeling, the one of utter loneliness, was creeping its way into my veins. Where was everyone?

I shook my head. It wasn't very far back to the apartment. I had probably just been watching too many `Twilight Zone' re-runs. I slipped my jacket on and put my hands in my jeans pockets, ready to get home.

Upon arriving to the front door of the apartment, I quickly got my keys from my poecket. I was seriously freaked now man, I had seen NO ONE, no cars, no people, no pets, nothing the whole way home!

I clambered into the apartment after finally getting it unlocked. All the lights were off, but I could hear some slow, feint music playing off in a bedroom. I took off my wet jacket and slung it over a chair.

"Heero?" I called, wondering if it was him with the music. Funny, we didn't own a radio when I had left an hour ago. I shrugged, maybe Heero was tired of listening to headphones. I made my way towards the sound, stopping at the closed door. I pressed my ear against it.

`Stop acting weird Maxwell!' I cursed at myself as I slowly cracked open the door, "H-Hee-Chan? You home?" I asked again. No answer.

I opened the door fully and scanned the room. A small stereo was on, playing soft songs. The lights were on, but yet, no one was in the room! I saw a light snap on behind me as I quickly turned.

`What the hell?' were my mental thoughts as I quickly walked back out to the kitchen. I looked around, no one was there! Frustrated and confused on what to do, I switched the light back off. It turned back on. I glared at the switch, it hadn't moved, yet a second after I turned the lights off, they snapped back on! I huffed, flipping the light switch up. The light remained on. I flipped it again down, the results were the same. I couldn't turn off the frickin' light!

I walked over to the un-lit half of the house into the other bedroom. I glared at the light switch, just daring for the lights to come on. They didn't, but the kitchen lights turned out.

"ARG! I give up!" I yelled as flumped back down onto the bed in the room. Upon landing there, I felt a lump. Quickly scrambling up, I pulled the blinds, lighting the room without having to mess with the light switch. I pulled the covers back frantically and yelled a very, very, unmanly kind of yell.

"DUO! SHIMATTA WAKE UP!"

I snapped awake, sitting straight up in bed, clonking heads with my signifigant other. The other boy glared at me, "Baka, you wake the whole universe up with your dreams, I swear!"

I quickly got up and ran over to Heero, giving him a huge bear hug. "I-I-I had a dream that you, you were…" I shuddred and stopped as I wrapped my arms around Heero's neck and stared into his eyes, "Do you have any idea how much your friendship means to me?" I smiled softly at him…

This is the meaning of true friendship. The one who wakes you from your dreams and brings you back to the better reality; the one with them in it.
