This is my first fic about Duo x Hilde. My first songfic too. Now that I'm finished, Read already!
Disclaimers-The characters are not mine. Period. The song is not mine. Period. If you sue me you'll get nothing.
Hilde sits at a desk writing a good bye letter to Duo.
Even through it hurt to write the letter and ended it with everlasting friend, she had to do it. She didn't want to stand in the way of any other relationships he might have. It hurt to look at him and realize they could not go beyond friendship. Sighing, she packed her bags and left the apartment.
Do-do-do...Duo came home to the fresh aroma of food. "Hey Hilde, what's for dinner?" he asked as he entered the kitchen. There was the whole assemble of dinner on the counter but no Hilde. "Maybe she went out," thought Duo as he looked around for a note. When he found it, it was not what he was expecting.
Dear Duo,
I can't take this anymore. Everyday is the same routine. I take care of the house and cook. You go to work with the Preventers, come back eat and shortly after go to bed. I loved you, Duo with all my heart, but I can see the feeling is not mutual. I wanted more than a friendship. But it seems that you had a different idea in mind. I didn't want to stay forever cooking and cleaning. So I guess this is goodbye.
Your Everlasting Friend,
Hilde
Duo turned ghostly white. "Hilde... didn't you realize that I loved you?" said Duo as he read the note again. "I would never take you for granted," said Duo as he searched in his pocket and found the ring. He was going to propose to her tonight but wasn't expecting to leave. Forever. Because of him. Duo closed his eyes. He felt frustrated and stupid. Frustrated because she didn't see his love for her. Stupid, for not sensing this earlier. Duo knew there was only one path he would take. He left the house in search of Hilde.
{I thought she knew:Hilde looked left and right and started to cross the street. Suddenly a voice in a head told her not to go, that Duo did love her. "No!" Hilde cried, "I accepted the fact and I will leave," she said with tears in her eyes. The tears blurred her vision, and she couldn't see the car that was racing toward her.
{But she said she couldn't stayDuo rounded the corner in the exact same moment Hilde got hit by the car. "NOOO HILDE!" screamed. On the way to the hospital, Duo held Hilde hand. "Please don't die, Hilde, please" said Duo as he looked at the pale girl. "Please, you taught me how to truly to love, instead hiding behind my mask."
As Hilde was rushed into the emergency room, a nurse stopped Duo from going in. "I'm sorry sir, but you'll have to wait here." She pointed to the orange benches. Duo slumped down in one and started praying. "Please, God where ever you are, don't let her die." "I will never stop believing in you again." "Please, don't let me become the God of Death again." Duo chanted over and over. Finally a doctor came out.
{She was my once in a lifetime,"Doctor how is she?" Duo said frantically. But one look at his face told him that the news wasn't going to be good. "I'm sorry, we did our best. She only has a few moments to live," said the doctor.
Duo rushed past him, and entered the room. "Hilde..." Duo whispered. Hilde was covered in bandages and looked fragile, unlike the spunky girl he met. He held her hand, "Hilde please don't leave me." Duo whispered to her. "Hilde, I'm sorry, please forgive me."
{I guess I should of told her,"I...." The lines on the heart monitor went flat. Duo looked at it in horror. "YOU DAMN MACHINE, SHE'S NOT DEAD" he screamed as he kicked the machine. Tears began to come out of Duo's eyes. "Why do all the people I love die?" he asked himself. "How could I be stupid enough to let another get close to me?"
A doctor came in hours later. "HOW COULD YOU? WHY DIDN'T YOU SAVE HER!?" Duo raged as he picked up the doctor. "But sir... we tried the best we could." the doctor said fearfully even through he knew the man in front of him would not like the answer. His grip loosened, and the doctor slumped down to the floor.
Duo faced Quatre "Why did you make me let him go? He killed Hilde."
"Duo it's not his fault. Don't ruin Hide's memory by killing another person," said Quatre, trying to smooth the pilot. The doctor started to cover Hilde. "Wait." said Duo calmly for his anger disappeared and all that was left was pain.
He walked over to the bed, and slipped the ring on to Hilde's finger. "You'll always live in my heart," said Duo. "I love... you". And began to sob. But through his tears, he thought he saw Hilde smile.
{Ooo...Author's Note: So what did ya think? C&C's, you know the drill. I tweaked the song a little to make it fit, but other than that, everything is basically the same.
