Heero practically pushed everyone out and closed the door or what was left of it. He motioned Quatre to sit in a chair and he sat as well. Quatre didn’t know what to expect. Heero pulled out a deck of cards and placed them on the table. “All right, did you throw everyone out so we could play cards?” he asked. Heero looked at him it was making him very nervous.
“You need to relax Quatre. You’re putting to much pressure on yourself.” he stated.
“You’ve been through a terrible ordeal. It’s just going to take time. You can get threw though.”
“You think so?”
“Yes.”
“Everyone wants me to talk about what happened.”
“Yes.”
“I don’t know why it’s so hard.”
“Trowa cares about you and because of that he gets frustrated. He’s hurt .”
“I didn’t mean to hurt him.” he said in a low voice.
“It’s not you it’s the situation. Don’t push yourself. Just let go.”
“So cards huh?”
“It’s a start. Don’t talk about things until you are ready. Not before.”
so Heero began to shuffle and deal. They continued to play Heero kept beating until finally Quatre beat him and yelled, “HA I beat you.” he smiled but then Trowa entered and his smile faded.
Heero noticed this too. Heero began thinking about it.
Trowa puts Quatre on a pedestal and it’s killing him.
Quatre lost something and he can’t get it back if he’s always worried about
Trowa. He needs to get away for a while so he can heal and become strong.
It’s the only way he will be able to go on. I think I know of the perfect
place I know I can help him but, I won’t do what the others are doing. I
won’t crowd him he needs to make the first move. It’s the only way the healing
can begin. He loves Trowa so it will be that much harder to talk to him
and Duo is his best friend so it won’t be him. Wufei is well Wufei. He needs
someone who he can trust be isn’t too close to I nominate my self. Sure
we’re friends but not as close as the others. They aren’t gonna like me
taking him away so I’ll wait till everyone’s asleep. I know it’s the right
thing to do.
Later that night he woke up Quatre and they left. Quatre went along
Heero said he would explain later and Quatre took him at his word. It was
a 3 hour drive when they got there. It was a cabin by a lake it was beautiful.
Quatre stepped out of the car and looked around. “What do you think?”
“It’s beautiful but why are we here.”
“This were you can recover without people hovering all over you.”
“Thanks. What about you I didn’t see you pack a bag I didn’t either.”
“I
brought some stuff for you. I’m going back but I’ll be back in a couple
days. I thought some quiet time alone before anything else would be good
for you.” Quatre smiled as Heero left. Sometime for him to think without
any interruptions. Maybe when I come back he’ll be ready to talk.
Trowa was going nuts he couldn’t find Quatre anywhere. Wufei ran over
to them and said “Here I found a note.”
Trowa, Duo and Wufei,
Be back soon went for a drive with Quatre so don’t have a fit
I’ll explain when I get back,
Heero
A couple hours later.. Trowa was pacing back and fourth. “Man would
you stop that you’re making me sea sick.” Duo said.
“Where the hell are they. It’s been too long to just go for a drive.” said
and annoyed Trowa. Finally Heero walked in threw the door. Trowa ran outside
when Quatre didn’t come in expecting to see him there but he didn’t.
Trowa was mad he grabbed Heero and yelled, “Where’s Quatre.” Heero
looked at him and said. “Let go. He’s safe.” Trowa punched him in the jaw.
Heero fell to the ground. “Do you really think you’re helping him Trowa?
you’re suffocating him.”
