Revelations

Mention of 2xNoin, 1x3. Very little, almost none, detail of
Relenax6. Don't worry, this isn't really an incest fic. Hint of 6x4
yaoi. Relena bashing.

[fic-91 pairs] Revelations [Relenax6] (Mixed up Series, 3/5)

"Millardo. I know you're in there so stop pretending and open this
door. I have had it with this behavior. Open the door now!" Relena
glared at the door, pounding on it until she heard the sound of bolts
being drawn. Finally, a pale blue eye peeked out at her and a groan
could be heard. Using both hands, Relena shoved the door open,
pushing her way into the apartment and past her brother. "I don't
understand *why* you insist on being so immature. Look at you." One
hand on her hip, she gestured at his drunken state then to the coffee
table littered with bottles of alcohol.

Groaning, Zechs shut the door, not locking it on the hope that his
sister's stay would be brief. "Well dear sister, to what do I owe
this honor?"

Letting out a snort of disgust, the former Queen of the World sat
down on the edge of the couch. "I can't find Heero. Usually it
doesn't take very long, but I simply can't pinpoint his location this
time. If you weren't such a horrible brother, you'd sober up and
help me find him. It's the least you can do after all, you owe me."

Sighing, Zechs half say, half fell into the love seat across from
her, grabbing a bottle and taking a long pull of it. Finally, he set
it down and gazed at her. "Look Relena, I'm sorry you're having
trouble stalking that boy, but I've got my own problems. I gave you
control of the Sank kingdom like you wanted. I don't owe you
anything."

"You're pathetic. What problems could you possibly have? Noin's
crazy about you. And I'm not *stalking* Heero. I simply won't let
him run from his destiny."

Zechs stared at her for a minute, then his eyes narrowed. "I'm
pathetic?" Shaking his head, he leaned forward. "I'll have you know
that Noin is living with Duo now." At Relena's gasp, Zechs nodded
sharply. "That's right. They're in love. There's never been
anything between Noin and me. She thought she was in love, but she
wasn't. *And*, before Duo went to Noin," Zechs paused, smiling at
Relena, "he was having sex with Heero."

"You lie!" Relena cried, shaking her head in disbelief. "I don't
believe it!"

"Oh but it's true. In fact, Heero doesn't like girls at all. He's
in love with Trowa. Remember him? Well, they're living together
now. So it looks like both of us are tough out of luck, doesn't it."

Relena sat in shock for a minute, then she lunged forward and grabbed
one of the bottles off the table. Twisting off the lid, she drank
the alcohol like she was dying of thirst. Pausing for breath, she
cursed Heero with a vocabulary that made Zechs's eyes widen. "I
can't believe he could do this to me!" Finishing the bottle in
record time, she immediately grabbed another.

Watching her fury with curiosity, Zechs helped himself to a bottle.
Since Relena was attacking his whiskey, he went for the vodka. By
the time he passed out, Relena was pacing the room in a drunken
tantrum, screaming about how happy she could have made Heero.
Passing out was a blessing.

Quatre paused outside the door to the apartment, frozen. He could
hear screaming from inside. He had just made up his mind to leave
when the door was thrown open and a white-faced Relena flew out.
Bawling her eyes out, her face screwed up into a mask of horror as
one hand was clutched to her mouth, the other to her stomach. Seeing
Quatre, she moaned and ran past him down the stairs.

Uncertain and a bit worried, the blonde boy paused in the open
doorway, staring after the girl. Then he turned and looked into the
apartment. Empty bottles of alcohol lay on the table, a few on the
floor. Taking a step into the apartment, Quatre could hear curses
coming from the bathroom. He shut the door carefully and slowly made
his way across the room until he stood near the closed bathroom door.

The noises had stopped, and it was silent for a few minutes. Quatre
was preparing to knock when he heard the sound of something crashing
and glass breaking. "Zechs? Are you alright?" he called, unable to
stand still any longer. Not waiting for an answer, he tried the
knob. It was unlocked. "Zechs?" he called again, "It's Quatre. If
you don't answer me, I'm coming in."

There was an angry oath, then the door was jerked open and Zechs
stood there looking furious, but unharmed. Quatre took a step back
warily and Zechs cursed. "Where is she?!"

Staring at the tall man, Quatre's eyes grew wide. "Relena? She
left. She...she was really upset about something."

"That bitch! I'll never speak to her again! She's my fucking
*sister*!"

"What happened?" Quatre asked gently, putting a calming hand on
Zechs's shoulder.

"I don't know," the tall man spat. "I passed out. When I woke up my
pants were down and her fucking head was in my lap."

"Oh my God..." Quatre stared at Zechs in horror, then stepped forward
quickly, wrapping his arms around his waist. "I'm so sorry, Zechs."

"I don't know what she did and I don't *want* to know. I don't even
feel like a man!" Zechs stared down at the blonde boy hugging him,
his heart racing in his chest. "I feel dirty."

"If there's anything I can do," Quatre said softly, squeezing the
shaking man, "Anything at all. Zechs...is there anything I can do to
help you?"

Zechs stood for a moment, looking down at the tip of Quatre's head.
Then his eyes blazed. "Yes, there is." Without another word, he
bent and lifted the boy in his arms, carrying him across the living
room and into the bedroom.
