The Reunion of Two Pilots

By Cecily Ronah

Chapter 6: Finding Love

Heero stared silently out the window as he thought back to the previous weeks events. He didn't even notice Relena come over and sit down next to him. "Heero, how are you feeling?"

"Hn," Heero replied, not taking his eyes off the window.

Relena laid her head on Heero's shoulder and looked up at him. "Don't worry about Hannah. I'm sure she's fine, after all, she's got Wufei looking after her."

Heero looked down into Relena's baby blue eyes and thanked the gods that he didn't kill her all those times he had the chance to. He didn't know what he would do if he didn't have her. He brought his hand to her soft blonde hair and stroked it as smiled softly at her. "Arigato Relena. You always know how to make me feel better." He lowered his lips to hers and gently kissed her.

"WOOHOO! Go Heero, go Heero, GO!"

Heero lifted his head and saw Duo doing wolf calls. He snorted. "Stupid baka."

"Duo?" Relena said sweetly.

"Hai, Relena?"

"Shut the HELL up!"

Duo blinked in surprise for a second before grinning at the princess. "Relena, there maybe hope for you yet!" Relena grinned back.

"Hey guys, what's all the noise about?" Trowa asked as he and Quatre walked into the room.

"Relena said a swear word!" Duo said, acting like a proud father.

Trowa looked over at Relena. "Really?"

Relena let out a snort. "Hn, braided baka." Heero let out a laugh and kissed her.

Quatre blinked. "That's a first."

"What's that love?" Trowa asked, touching Quatre's cheek.

Quatre smiled, leaning into Trowa's gently caress. "I think Relena has had a little too much time with Heero."

Trowa chuckled and shook his head. He rested his forehead against the blonde pilot's "It just shows how much they love each other." Trowa let their noses touch, startling Quatre. "Just like my love for you, my blonde angel."

Tears formed in Quatre's eyes. "Oh, Trowa," he said softly as Trowa leaned into kiss him.

Duo turned away from the two couples. "Boy, do I ever need a girlfriend," Duo muttered. He blinked and looked around. "Where's Amanda?"

Thoughts were racing through Amanda's head and she worked on Starfire. 'He couldn't possibly like me, I'm just a thirteen year old kid.'

"Amanda?"

Amanda jumped in surprise, and banged her head against Starfire. "KUSO!!" She heard a small beep and she snapped, "Don't even tell me that hurt, you're made of Gundamium Alloy!"

Domon pulled her out from under Starfire and she flinched when he touched the bump that was forming on her forehead. "You alright?"

Amanda let out a small snort. "I'll survive." She moved away from Domon to pick up the wrench she dropped.

A frown formed on Domon's face. "What the hell is your problem Amanda? You've been acting like this ever since we got here!"

"I don't really think it's any of your business," she said as she moved to go back under Starfire.

Domon grabbed her arm. "Amanda, please, talk to me." The seventeen year old looked at her with gentle eyes.

Amanda looked back at Domon, not knowing what to do. She was scared. Facing two dozen mobile suits was easier than this. 'I can't do this. I can't tell him I'm falling in love with him.' Unknown to her, a tear rolled down her cheek.

"Amanda?" Domon cupped her cheek and wiped away the stray tear. "Come on, you can tell me what's wrong."

Amanda let out a shaky breath. "I... I know we've only known each other for awhile, and this is probably going to make you run as far away from me as possible, and you'll never want to see me again, and you probably think I'm being a stupid kid for rambling on like this...." She continued to ramble on.

Domon let her ramble on for a little longer before patting her cheek lightly, making her stop abruptly. "Amanda, nothing you say will ever make me turn from you," he said. "Now, what is it that's got you so upset?"

Amanda looked into Domon's warm brown eyes, and prayed that it wasn't the last time she looked into them. "I.... I think.... that.... I love.... you...." she choked out.

Domon sat there in shock as he looked at her. 'She...she loves me?' He wished that he could jump up and scream thank you to Kami. When he first met Amanda, all he thought was that she needed a brotherly type figure, like he never really had when his brother disappeared when he was eleven. But over the past few weeks, he realized that wasn't ever going to be, because like it or now, Domon had fallen hard for the young brunette.

He was quiet for so long, he sat there just looking at her, that Amanda took the silence the wrong way. "I was right!" she cried, standing up, making Domon's hand leave her cheek. "You are upset!"

Domon quickly pulled her back and pressed his lips to hers before she could get away.

Amanda's eyes widened slightly before closing them and leaning into the kiss, thinking this would probably be the only one she would ever get. When Domon finally pulled away, it was a moment before she finally got her bearings back. "Did you do that to make me feel better?"

Domon blinked. "Nani?"

Amanda's eyes began to fill with tears. "If you kissed me only to make me feel better, or even to shut me up, I under..."

Domon silenced her by kissing her again. Pulling away slightly, he said with a smile, "Now THAT one was to shut you up." Seeing the confused look on Amanda's face, he said, "I didn't kiss you to make you feel better Amanda, I did it because I wanted to."

Amanda blinked in shock. "D-Domon, I don't understand..."

"Then let me make it a little more clearer." He cupped the back of her neck and pulled her closer. "I love you Amanda Yashima. I love you so much, I don't think I could stand it if I had to live without you."

Tears spilled down Amanda cheeks. 'He.... he loves me....' A soft sob escaped her as she threw herself into Domon's arms. Domon wrapped his arms around her and buried his face in her sweet smelling hair.

Unknown to the both of them, Amuro was watching them quietly. Smiling, he turned to walk out of the hanger. 'You better take care of my little sister Domon.'

The trip to L5 was as quiet as outerspace itself. Every now and then, Wufei would look over at Hannah, who was curled up in her seat, sleeping. Wufei smiled softly, something he rarely did anymore since the death of his first wife Marian. Even though he didn't love her, she was still his best friend, and he had respected her a great deal, and still did to this day. When Marian was killed during a battle, Wufei was so devastated that he swore he would fight for the justice that Marian was working so hard for and named his Gundam Nataku in her memory. Looking over at Hannah again, he noticed she had a small frown on her lip. `She doesn't seem to be the type of person to fight in a war. I wonder what her purpose is for being in it.' He turned back to his driving.

Hannah slowly opened her eyes and looked at the Chinese quietly. Wufei had barely left her side since her fight with Zechs, not that she was complaining really. What she felt for Wufei confused her and scared her a bit, and she didn't know what to do about it. As she continued to watch him, she noticed that his raven black hair was back it that tight ponytail he always had it in. Personally she liked it down, but she would never tell him that. He had intense black eyes, and she could tell by looking in them that they held a lot of unspoken pain. `Wufei… I wish there was something I could do to help…'

Wuife must have felt someone watching him, for he chose to look at her. "Hey, you're awake. How are you feeling?"

Hannah shrugged, wincing slightly when a sharp pain entered her left shoulder. "I've been better, I guess." Hannah looked outside. "How much longer `till we get to L5?"

Wufei turned to look at the colony before him. "About twenty minutes I'm guessing." Moments passed before he spoke again. "Hannah?"

"Hm?" she said softly, not looking away from the window.

"That fight between you and Zechs…"

"…Yeah, what about it?"

"Well, the way you were fighing, it was like you held some kind of grudge towards him. Do you know him?"

Hannah turned her head to look at Wufei angerly. "Maybe I do, maybe I don't. What business is it to you?" She looked away. "G-gomen ne Wufei," she whispered.

Wufei was slightly hurt at the way she snapped at him, but quickly let it go. If she did know him, he must have done something horrible to make her so upset at him. "It's alright Hannah," he said gently, letting her know no hard feelings. "I shouldn't have asked." He looked foreword again. "We're here."

"Hn, we would have been here quicker if whe hadn't brought our Gundams," she muttered.

Wufei let out a soft chuckle. Hannah had only know Heero a few short months, and yet she acted just like him sometimes.

Hannah looked at the Chinese pilot, amazed. "Did I actually hear you laugh, Fei-chan? Sure wish I had my camera. Duo would have loved to see that."

Wufei's face turned red, from being caught laughing or at the added `chan' to his name, he didn't know. "Hn, women."

Hannah laughed, then winced again. "Owwww. Guess I was wrong about you having a sense of humor."

Wufei let out a small grunt. "You better hang on Hannah. This landing is going to be a bit bumpy.

Hannah nodded as she sat back, waiting for the bumpy landing.

A small knock on his door made Treize look up from his paperwork. "Come in."

Tamara walked in, folder in hand. "I… I found some information on this Hannah Yuy."

Treize raised an eyebrow, noticing the strange look on her face. "You don't seem too happy about it Tamara."

"Actually I'm not, and you probably won't be either." She handed him the folder.

Treize opened it and skimmed though the info, flipping up page after page until he got to the last one, where the picture of Hannah Yuy was clipped to the back. His eyes widened. "Iie… it can't be…"

"It is sir," Tamara said softly.

"Hannah Yuy is really… Christina?!?"

Milliardo leaned against a small desk as he watched repairs being completed on Epyon. That fight with the new pilot really took a toll on the Gundam. `I never expected for her to be that good,' Milliardo thought to himself. `I should have though, after all, she was Yuy's sister.'

Just then he heard a beep from his computer. Turning around, he pushed the on button. "Hai, what is it?"

A White Fang officer appeared on the screen. "Sir, we have just recived word that Gundam pilots 05 and 06 are in the L5 Colony. What are your orders?"

"I will meet you there by 1000 hours tomorrow, so hold off on doing anything. We will then move in and bring them in alive for questioning."

The officer saluted. "Hai!"

Milliardo flipped off the screen and turned around again. "Well, looks like we will meet again sooner than I expected."

"Wufei, is that you I see?"

"Hai. It's been awhile Long-sensei," Wufei said as he bowed in respect.

Long-sensei bowed back. He looked at Hannah. "And who is this pretty young woman?"

Hannah flushed slightly. "My name is Hannah Yuy. It's an honor to meet you, Long-sensei." She bowed to the Chinese leader."

Long-sensei nodded, smiling. `This young woman would make a fine wife for Wufei.'

"WUFEI!" The three of them turned to see a petite woman running towards them.

"Okassan!" A smile broke out on Wufei's face as he wrapped his arms around the woman.

Wufei's mother stood back to look at him. "Wufei, it's been so long since I've seen you. I was starting to get worried, and who is this young girl with you?"

"Okassan, this is my partner Hannah Yuy. Hannah, this is my mother, Chang Lei."

Lei smiled warmly at Hannah. "It is a pleasure to meet you Hannah."

Hannah smiled shyly back. "It's a pleasure to meet you too, Lei-san."

"No formalities please. Just call me Lei. Now come, you two must be famished from your long journey." Lei took a look at Hannah's bandages. "And I will change your bandages as well Hannah. Come now."

"Your mother's really nice," Hannah whispered to Wufei as they headed towards the house.

Wufei smiled slightly. "She is, isn't is?"

Hannah nodded as she faught back tears as she thought about her own mother.

Lei turned her head slightly and noticed how close her son was to Hannah. She turned back around and smiled softly. `She is just the one to make my Wufei happy.' Lei opened the door and led the two inside. "Wufei, please set out the things we need for dinner while I change Hannah's bandages.

"Hai, Okassan." Wufei headed towards the kitchen.

Lei led Hannah to the bathroom and was soon changing her bandages. "How did you get hurt this badly?" Lei asked as she wrapped a fresh bandage on Hannah's arm.

Hannah didn't meet Lei's gaze. "I lowered my guard during a battle with OZ. I'm still alive, so I'm not complaining."

"Hai, you were very lucky." Lei was quiet for a moment. "How much do you care for my Wufei?"

"Nani?" Hannah looked at Lei, surprised.

"Oh, come now Hannah," Lei said smiling. "You didn't think I noticed the way you look at my son?"

Hannah blushed and looked at the floor. "I… I don't know how I feel about Wufei…"

"Hai, you do, you're just afraid of what may happen if you admit it to yourself." Lei started working on another bandage. "You must have been very hurt if you're afraid to follow your heart."

Hannah was silent. Was Lei right? Did she already know her feelings for Wufei, and was just afraid to act on them?"

Just then Wufei looked into the bathroom. "Okassan, dinner is ready."

"Alright," Lei said. "I'm just about done here anyway."

Wufei looked at Hannah. "How are you feeling?" he asked, looking at her with concern.

Right then Hannah felt like she was just punched in the stomach with her emotions, and she was terrified. "I…" She closed her mouth and nodded, too stunned to speak at the realization.

Lei stood up. "Come now. Let's go eat before the rice gets cold." She left the room.

Wufei continued to look at his partner. "Are you sure you're alright Hannah?"

Hannah made herself nod, but in truth, she wasn't. She didn't want it to happen, but in the end, her heart didn't give her the choice.

She had fallen in love with Wufei.
