Matters
of the Heart
Trowa watched the sleeping boy with a faint smile. His
only movement was the steady breathing of a sleeper, and he looked so boyish
and innocent for just those few moments in time that it took his breath away.
Catherine appeared at the door, “Trowa? Is there any
change?”
He shook his head, “He is healing, and that is all.”
Trowa shook his head, “I want to be the first thing he
sees when he awakes… a familiar face to show him he is safe.”
It was a plausible reason, and to Catherine there was no
reason he should be lying to her. She nodded and left, leaving him alone.
The reality was, as Trowa
had cared for this wounded soldier, he had grown to love him. He had seen him
in battle, and feared and admired him, and he saw him like this, helpless,
unconscious, and he was just as amazing. So he wanted, for however brief a
time, to be this boys only assurance that he was alive, that he would fight
again.
Finally, he stirred. After three more days of waiting,
the long eyelashes fluttered. Trowa hurried to his side and spoke softly,
“Don’t try to move, you’re still not healed. Is thenythnything you
want?”
The boy looked at him with his deep blue eyes, slowly,
assessing danger, then he said quietly, his voice croaky with misuse. “I’m
a little hungry, if it isn’t any bother.”
“No bother.” Trowa answered with a smile. “Would
you like to sit up, first?”
“Please.”
“Right,” Trowa slipped an arm under his shoulder,
lifting him a little, “Put your weight on my arm, and be careful. Don’t
try to move too much.”
After a moment’s manoeuvring, Trowa propped him up with
his pillows. “I’ll be back in a minute.” He said quietly with a smile.
When he came back the boy had closed his eyes, and he
looked asleep again. At the sound of Trowa’s soft steps, he looked up. “Do
you know my name?” He asked, as if nothing mattered more than that.
“No, I don’t.” Trowa replied, feeling a little
sheepish that he didn’t know the name of the boy he loved.
“I don’t have one, in particular. My code name is
Heero Yuy.” He said wryly. “And yours?”
Trowa shrugged, “I have been both no-name and Trowa
Barton. Like you, I don’t have a name of my own.”
Heero smiled, “Then we can understand each other.”
Trowa nodded, sliding the tray onto the bed. “I don’t
suppose you want me to spoon feed you.”
A nod, then he was struggling to sit straight. “How
long have I been out?”
“Almost a month now.” Trowa told him, watching his
face for reactions; “I’ve been caring for you.”
Doubt crossed Heero’s face, “A month?”
