“Self detonation in minus ten seconds…” …ten… “Heero! You can’t destroy yourself now!” I can hear Quatre yelling at me but I am already willing Death to come quickly. It’s so close that I can taste it. And it’s all because of /him./ …nine… When I first entered you it was as though electricity shot through my entire body. Your velvet touch on my skin made me feel alive. You were perfect in every way, size, shape and form. I found myself gazing at your beauty a lot, never saying anything out loud of course. But inside… …eight… There was one before you but you didn’t seem to mind nor did you ever ask. When I’m with you I don’t think about him as much. He was very important and I miss him, but you made the lose easier. I thank you for that. …seven… We were perfect together, you and me. It was as if we were made for each other. I mean, we fit perfectly and there was never a doubt in my mind about it. About us. …six… We fought together in the war and I know that I couldn’t have done it without you. You kept me going whenever I wanted to stop. You drove me to be the best. To be the perfect soldier. You kept me sane…and sometimes made be go insane. …five…four… We protected each other during the battles with OZ and I must admit that you were better at it. Better equipped perhaps. You took care of me and watched over me while I was hurt. I want to thank you for that too, but I don’t know how. I’ll find a way. …three… Our time is growing short now but I don’t want to say goodbye to you yet. As a soldier I do not feel certain emotions and I’m not sure if what I feel for you is love. But I’ve definitely grown attached to you in a big way. I don’t know what life would be like without you. …two… Then again I won’t have to worry about that now… …one… “Goodbye…ZERO.” …zero… ~Owari~ |
