- it's very odd.....
Dubird - 24 Jul 2002 09:28 am
Post subject: it's very odd.....
i seem to be writing sap fics lately.....o.O......but anyways, check this
out....
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Title: With Arms Wide
Open...
Author: Dubird
Pairings: HeeroXRelena, if you couldn't guess
Rating: PG for some swearing
Standard Disclaimer: I don't own Gundam
Wing. This is just one of the many fan spawned writings of another crazy person.
I also goto college and have lots of loans to pay off, so if you're looking for
money, you've come to the wrong place!
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Note: Yes, this is a sap fic. Sorry 'bout that, but I couldn't think of
anything else to do. I heard the song on the radio, and just had to do this!
There's at least one more story before this (and after Emotional Cathersis),
maybe two if I can plot it out. But this'll be the last of the Heero 'emotion
fics' I've been doing. In this 'series' anyways. After I do this one, and the
prequil(s) to it, I'll try and write for other characters.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
'Congratulations, Mr. Yuy. It's
a girl!'
Heero looked up at the nurse, his weary eyes making out a small
bundle in her arms. Duo was still fast asleep on the sofa across the room, his
cap pulled down over his eyes. 'A girl?' he asked, trying to shake off the sleep
that had been creeping up on him. He had been awake for almost twent four hours
now. Normally, it wouldn't bother him to much, but worry for Relena had taken
more out of him than the lack of sleep.
'That's right!' The nurse smiled
at him and carefully placed the baby in his arms. 'Oh, and don't worry. Her
mother's doing just fine! She needs to sleep for a bit, though, so I thought
you'd like to meet your daughter in the meantime.' She smiled at his slightly
startled expression. 'New father?'
Heero nodded, trying to keep his
hands from trembling.
'Don't worry. You'll do just fine! Remember to
support her head. I'll leave you two for a little bit to get acquainted.' The
nurse smiled at him again and left quietly.
Heero looked down at the
small bundle in his arms and carefully pulled back the corner of the blanket to
look at his daughter's face. Two crystal blue eyes looked up into his, and his
heart gave a little leap. 'Hello, Ana,' he whispered softly, his fingertips
resting softly on her cheek.
'She's got her mother's eyes,' Duo
commented quietly behind him.
'Yeah,' Heero answered, still fascinated
by the small life in his arms.
'Well, that makes me the first to
congratulate ya, man!' Duo said, clapping Heero lightly on the shoulder.
'I just hope I'm up to this,' he whispered softly, watching his
daughter's eyelids droop sleepily.
'What are you talking about?'
'Just what I said,' he replied, for once in his life not caring this
emotions were showing clearly. He turned to look Duo in the eye. 'I just don't
know if I can do this. Hell, I don't even remember having parents, so how am I
supposed to be one? I was trained to be a solder, not a father. I don't know if
I'm even capable of this.' His eyes were full of questions in a rare moment of
complete honesty with his feelings.
'Don't you see? That's why you'll
make a good father.'
'Huh?'
Duo laughed. 'Ya know, you can be
awfully dense at times. You don't remember having a father, right? Well, then
you know what it feels like. I doubt anyone can really be ready to be a parent,
but you already know what it feels like to not have one. So, you know a very big
thing not to do. As for the rest, I'm sure you'll get the hang of it. You've got
Relena to help ya out, remember? As long as you try your best and make sure
little Ana there knows you love her, you'll work it out. You just gotta believe
in yourself. After all, look how far you've come. It's taken a while, but you've
gotten being a human being down pretty good.' Duo grinned at him. 'You can do
it! We're all around to help ya out still. I think you'll be just fine.'
Heero gave his friend a grateful smile and turned his attention back to
his daughter just as the nurse came in. 'Mr. Yuy?' she asked, drawing his eyes
back around to the door. 'Your wife is awake now. She refuses to go back to
sleep until she sees the both of you,' she said with a tolerant smile.
'Go on then, Dad!' Duo lightly slapped Heero on the back. 'I'll go call
the others and let them know everything's good!' He tossed a wave over his
shoulder as he sauntered out, leaving Heero with a thoughtful expression on his
face.
As Heero followed the nurse down the hallway, walking carefully so
as not to wake Ana, he gave some serious thought to what Duo had said. For him,
showing a great deal of emotion was still something he wasn't comfortable with.
Even after years of trying to live a normal life, including 2 years of being
happily married, he was still the silent type. But he realized that Duo had a
point. He did know what it felt like not having parents, and he made a silent
promise that his daughter wouldn't feel that. He would be there for her, no
matter what.
The nurse opened the door to Relena's room for him with a
whispered final instruction:' Now, don't stay to long. She needs her rest
remember!'
Heero nodded to show he heard, and slowly approached her bed.
As he sat carefully on the edge, her eyes opened and fastened on him and the
baby. She smiled faintly. 'So how does it feel to be a father?' she asked
softly.
He gave her a warm smile, one that only she had seen. 'Better
than I thought it could,' he confessed, then leaned forward to place Ana in her
arms.
She grinned at him, her blue eyes twinkling knowingly, then turned
her sight down to Ana, who had snuggled up to her and fallen asleep. Heero
watched the two of them for a moment, the shifted around so he could gather them
in his arms. He leaned back against the headboard with a soft sigh. Relena
rested her head on his shoulder and closed her eyes, and he looked down at her.
There had been times in the past where he wondered if he had done the right
thing in bringing her into his life, as dangerous as it was. But looking down at
his family, he realized that for the first time, he was truly happy. For a young
man still trying to adjust to normal feelings, it was a big adjustment. He
rested his cheek against her hair, taking comfort in the moment. Soon, he was
sure the nurse would chase him out and he would have to face Duo and the others
and their congratulations. But this moment he wanted to keep in his memory for
as long as possible.

That's really good. I ususally don't read Heero and Relena fics, but Duo and
Hilde ficts, but it was good. You seemed to capture Heero well. The whole new to
all these emotions since he would just hide them away during the awrs and the
whole orphan thing. Once again it's really really good and can't wait to read
another one of your fan-fictions.

yep.....that's what gave me the idea....the song is about
how the author of it felt when he first became a father.....i think it kinda
neatly summed up how he might feel.....
it's weird....i seem to be able
to write more for Heero than i can for the other pilots.....he's not really my
favorite character, but i just seem to have a decent grasp on his character.....

who's you fave pilot?
Dubird - 25 Jul 2002 08:12 am
Post subject:
i'm not sure....there's things i like about all of them....i think probally
Quatre's my favorite.....or maybe Duo.....
Duo: Well, I noticed you
never added Quatre to your bishonen list!
me: well, that's true....you are
cuter....but you're much to young for me ya know....
Duo: *mock sad look*
Yes, that's true. It's a shame.
me: 
anyhoo, i do like all of them.....but i really do admire
Quatre.....i think he was probally the most emotionaly strongest of all of
them.....yes, he went crazy on the Zero system, but then, everyone did......and
he was able to master it the second time he used it....even Heero took several
times fighting with it to master it.....he also had the courage to stand up his
father and fight for what he believed in....

probally the strongest mentally......

I like Duo the best. But they all stand out. They're all strong emotionally but
show different ways of that and there strength and intelligence.
