Here with Me
by jade dragon, lyrics from Dido

Duo kissed Hilde softly on the cheek and left the room. By the time she woke up, he was gone.
I didn't hear you leave, I wonder how am I still here.
"Duo?" Hilde didn't get up, realizing that Duo had walked out on her.
And I don't wanna move a thing, it might change my memory.
"Damn it, Duo. I can't help it if I love you. Why do you always leave?"
Oh, I am what I am. I'll do what I want. And I can't hide. I won't go, I won't sleep, and I can't breathe until you're resting here with me. I won't leave I can't hide. I cannot be, until you're resting here with me.
Hilde forced herself to get up and get dressed. Out of habit she wandered into the kitchen, but found she had no appetite. She picked up the phone and started dialing Relena's number, but turned the phone off instead. She wanted to tell someone about last night, but not just yet. It was as if saying it out loud would make it just a dream.
I don't wanna call my friends. They might wake me from this dream.
Hilde ran back to her room and jumped into bed, closing her eyes and pulling the covers over her head.
And I can't leave this bed, and risk forgetting all that's been.
The night before had been so incredible, and every moment played over and over in Hilde's mind. She never wanted to forget it.
Oh, I am what I am. I'll do what I want. But I can't hide. I won't go, I won't sleep and I can't be, until you're resting here with me. I won't leave, I can't hide. I cannot be, until you're resting here with me.
The apartment door opened. Hilde held her breath, hardly daring to hope. She heard footsteps come down the hall and into her room. She felt Duo's weight beside her on the bed, and only then did she lift her head from under the covers. She saw Duo smiling down at her, and burst into tears of relief. Duo's face instantly became concerned.
"What's wrong? Did you think I left you for good?"
Hilde nodded silently and stared at the bed's wrinkled quilt. Duo put his finger under her chin, lifting her face so he could look her in the eye.
"I promise I'll never leave you again. I only went to pick something up." Duo reached into his jacket pocket and pulled out a sparkling diamond ring.
"Hilde, will you be my wife?"
Oh I am what I am. I'll do what I want, but I can't hide. I won't go, I won't sleep. I won't sleep until you're resting here with me, I won't leave I can't hide. I cannot be.....until you're resting here with me.
