"Baby Series 2"

We Are All We Have

Heero leaned against the closed door, arms crossed over his chest. His unruly hair gave him the look of causal elegance but there was nothing casual in his blue eyes. He watched pale Quatre towering over the slender dark Chang, sparks flying between them. The amused half smile curving his mouth did nothing to soften the cold gleam in his eyes.

Chang stiffened, turning on Heero with dark eyes spitting rage. Quatre stepped back, the hand held near his chest now clenched and pressed to his dark suit over his heart.

“Is it bad, Quatre? Maybe you had better wait outside with Trowa until Chang gets over his tantrum.”

The fact he and Chang had been near to blows faded from Quatre’s mind as he felt Chang’s emotional level soar at Heero’s casual sneer.

“No. We have to deal with this. We have to calm down.”

“It is no concern of any of you!”

“We are all the family we have.” Heero’s glare chilled further. “Yes, Quatre has sisters but ask him how well he knows them. You might not like it but we are all we have. If we break those ties we really are on our own.”

“I don’t know my own family.” Quatre whispered. “I know you guys better than I know them. It’s all business and standards, nothing personal. Some days I feel I’m an outsider looking in. They are all so much older and some of their kids are older than I am.”

“We are family. We are there for each other when things go wrong. When one of us blows his stack no one else can understand the way we do. If we blow up at each other and lose our ties then we really have nothing. I personally have had enough of being alone.”

“When did you become the authority on family, Yuy?” Chang snarled.

He needed to strike out at something, someone, and he did not want to be reasonable. Not yet. He had to rage like a thunderstorm and find some relief from his confusion and anger.

“When it looks like we will split for no good reason someone has to be sensible. I know nothing about family but I want to learn and everything I’ve heard says family sticks together. You are the brothers I never had, or never knew. I watch Milliardo with Stephan and I know I want that kind of closeness, that kind of love. I watch him with Relena and I remember everything he did for her. They are blood, he knew that but she never. They don’t understand each other anymore than we know each other. They’re trying. With the history they have between them, the misunderstandings that took place… They still are trying. Do we let misunderstanding and anger destroy the family we are? Or do we get past it and help our family to grow?”
