Three is a Crowd

It was a bit weird when the war finally ended. I guess everyone expected either; Heero and Relena to go running off into the sunset or for me and Heero to steal away together. I suppose it shocked the hell out of everyone when neither of those things happened. Not for lack of a want on my part though, I did love Heero you see, with all my heart and soul and it killed me to see Relena fawning after him. I guess I was the one who kinda messed up the two of us stealing away together yanno, I just couldn't stand all the time he was spending with that… woman. She was hanging onto him every damned minute, when he agreed to be her bodyguard I resigned myself to defeat and just walked away from it all. That had to be the biggest mistake of my life… wait… no… the biggest mistake came later, but you won't hear about that right now.

It was these weird headlines that brought me out of hiding, yeah that is right, I was hiding –just like my motto yanno. Well it was a tabloid and it read "Worlds Favorite Threesome is breaking up.", what can I say the title intrigued me, I wanted to know who the worlds favorite threesome was after all. So I read and damn what a shock I got. Turns out Heero was gay… stupid stupid stupid I just left without thinking twice… but more than that it turns out he was in a threesome! This little trio consisted of none other than Zechs, Treize and Heero. Treize being alive was another weird shocker I got about 2 years ago, once again thanks to these tabloids in the checkout line. A voice broke my odd reverie asking "Do you want that magazine rung up as well?" I shook my head for a second, to get a grip on the present. Odds are I was doing a very good fish impersonation, but the cashier didn't mention it. Normally I would shove these gossip spreaders back into their spots, but this time I wanted to know, so I said "sure" and handed it to Martha, my cashier.

I raced home, needless to say, but when I got there I felt nervous about thumbing through my tabloid to read the whole story. I felt anxious as well, to find what had become of this threesome. I still harbored a deep love in my heart for Heero, but all this time I had just been suffering in peace. I finally settled down to read my magazine after I had made myself a BLT and grabbed a soda. I flipped the pages slowly as I nibbled my sandwich. Once I reached the page that held the prize-winning story I could hardly bring myself to read it. But I found once I started, I was devouring every word. Okay, so the inside scoop was that Treize and Zechs had decided to continue their relationship but not with Heero. The two lovers had left their significant other in the dark about their brooding feelings of jealousy.

Apparently Zechs and Treize had discovered they were only jealous when Heero was holding either of their attention, or when either of them paid any attention to Heero. That was the problem with most threesomes, jealousy reined supreme in these relationships and it was a hard juggling game to keep everyone happy, turns out this time that Zechs and Treize had decided that Heero was the problem. I felt my heart breaking as I read the words, Zechs and Heero had been partners but once the split happened he refused to work with Heero any longer. This is when Une decided to implement the 'no partners amongst lovers' rule, so Zechs got Wufei as a partner and Treize got Trowa. Quatre was the only one not in preventers, but this left Heero with only nameless newbies for partners. I couldn't handle it, so I quickly began to pack everything. I was leaving, tonight, or as soon as I was packed. Heero was abandoned and with no partner or real friends, he needed me now. I had been selfish before, and scared, but now it was time for me to think of Heero first.

I left it all behind, the life I had spent years building, the quiet life where I shut myself away and suffered in silence. My house, my furniture, everything, I only took what I needed to survive over on earth. I landed at 3 a.m. and considered calling Heero right away… but thought better of it. What if he was pretty fine and I called him at three in the morning saying "Don't worry Heero, I am here to save you don't kill yourself please". Yeah I thought twice about being a knight in shining armor, might make me look more like a stoned idiot than a white knight.

I really didn't think ahead of getting there though.. I didn't have any way to get from the airport to
.. I didn't know where I was going either. I came to earth with no plan whatsoever… good job on my part. So after about an hour I managed to get a taxi and found a hotel room for a night. It was about 5 in the morning when I finally crashed onto the hotel bed and got some sleep. Tomorrow was the day to figure out where the hell to go from here.
