Lisa

I was standing at his Porch and in front of me there he was, Rick Hunter, bloody handsome, with that something I cannot explain that drives me insane… I think I scared him, for a few seconds I felt he had no idea I was doing there, or may I really looked as hell, I’m not the actress, that’s Minmei

Rick

Eduardos, that situation was for a song… in front of me was Lisa Hayes, looking awesome as always in her uniform, but there was something strange about her, she was not pleased to be there, and I felt as an idiot, I know there were just a few seconds but for me it was an eternity… and the only think I could say was her name.

Lisa

- Lisa – he said and my heart literally jump inside my chest, “he is happy to see me”, but he change his tone right away – Commander Hayes – “I get exacted for nothing” I thought

And there by his side I saw the cherry of the cake for the looser inside of me, Minmei’s little perfect porcelain doll face…

Rick

“Asshole, Rick how can you such an idiot, she is your friend, she is Lisa not Commander Hayes, why do you pretend” but in that moment I heard the reason why I hide my friend

- Hi Lisa – Minmei said kind of out balance, as shock for seeing her there

Lisa

- I – I hesitated a little – came to say goodbye, I’ve just received my new orders and…

Bla-bla, I heard myself the words coming out of my mouth, giving all the technical details of my great mission, asking Rick to be glad for me, begging him to give at least that, to be happy as my friend for my professional accomplishments, my happiness in a personal level depended just on him and in that he could not help me. He had a look in his face as he could not believe it, at the end he just said…

Rick

I look at her, I only heard bla-bla-bla, I couldn’t understand a word of what she was saying, I was staring at her sad eyes, Lisa was going leaving, “you are going to be without your friend and probably for ever” that was everything I could think about, I knew Minmei was standing next to me, holding my arm, somehow showing ownership, “I think you are the only stupid that didn’t figure out” but I’m such an asshole and the only thing I said was…

- When are you leaving?

Lisa

The answer did not make him happy, but I didn’t feel him disturb, and then without any hope, I finally gathered all my strengths and courage and said those words that were hunting my heart since the first time he called me a weasel… I just felt for him, that first time we fought the feeling started and as a snowball grew in time.

- For last I just wanted to tell you – I hesitated, while I played with my hands as a little girl with ponytail, I wanted to avoid the temptation to hold him and begged him to love me while I do my confession – I love you, I’ve always have and will always do – his eyes open wide, and for the first time he has no answer, Minmei just look at me and then turn to see his reaction – I’m so sorry Minmei – I continued – but I am certain I’ll never see him again, and I had to tell him, take care of him for me, I have to go my crew waits for me – and that was the last thing I said, because I started to run

Rick

It was true what I heard or I just lost it… “Because she’s in love with you, that’s why” again Vanessa was in my head, then it realized that it wasn’t the trio’s gossip, she was in love with me… and she was leaving me, for good to search Robotech Masters. “And what about me, who is going to be by my side, who is going to listen to me, who is going to take care of me?”

- Lisa wait – Minmei stood in front of me

- Rick, you can’t leave, what’s going to happen with me – she was so selfish – you can’t leave me

Lisa

Again I ran as the day before, again I was running away from the man I love the most, and who’s caused me the greatest damage, without even pretend it.

I heard a thunder and for a few seconds I thought it was my heart, finally breaking, until I felt the heat of the blast wave, I duck trying to protect me, I couldn’t die, not when my military heart started beating again and know I could love Rick from the distant, for a moment I didn’t know about myself.

Rick

A blast wave, the only reaction I had was to cover Minmei in the ground, and think about her, leaving me, running away from my life; I stood up with the intention to find her

- LISA!!!!! – I screamed with all my strength – oh Good, Lisa

- Rick – Minmei yield, but I didn’t care if she was there, I only could think about my friend, in the woman whose coincidence was the correct one, the woman I was, well am, in love with.

Lisa

When I finally returned to my senses, I heard that beloved voice, screaming my name, I thought “great now besides he knows that you love him, he is going to see you cover in dust and will start yelling asking why the fuck he is not assigned to the SDF-2” “but, love, hate on” I continued so blind, of course I burned that bloody book in the first opportunity I had.

Rick

There she was, in the floor and I thought the works, then I saw her trying to stand up, she was kind of bruised, but ok and I felt so relief.

Lisa

He approached and I tried to pretend I was fine, physical and emotional alright, he helped to stand up and I could not avoid to smell him, his smell so masculine and strong… so reliable.

- What happened? – I asked, trying to look as military as possible

Rick

- We are under attack – I answered her, trying to make her understand with my touch and my eyes all that I’d just figured out, but I felt for so long

Lisa

- I have to return to the SDF1 – I scream trying to turn as fast as I could, in part for the military urgency we were in and the other, the most important one, to avoid to be near him, being so near was intoxicating, I almost fell again, but the took me by the waist and hugged me, I was so close to him I could feel his heart beating, and I swear I almost faint again

Rick

- You can’t, you are weak – I answered her and I took her by the waist to avoid her to fell again while she try to run towards the SDF1, “I wasn’t wrong she has a body… come’n Hunter now is not the time to think about this – why no?” I answer myself… she was so weak as Minmei but at the same time so confident about herself, Lisa’s eternal contradiction

Lisa

For a second I thought I was dead and in heaven, I opened my mouth to try to defend myself as I did in so many occasions, fighting, picking on him, but I could not, because in that moment, Rick Hunter turned and we were face to face and then he just…

Rick

I felt her internal fight, she wanted to be protected and I knew she was enjoying being in my arms, I felt it as in so many other occasions in which I pretended not to… and I couldn’t stand it any more, the simple thought of losing her drove me mad and made me realized… “Hunter don’t loose time…”

Lisa

He kissed me, very softly but at the same time with so much passion, we forgot everything around us… we did not care about Khyron, the earth, or Minmei, there was only him and me… he hugged and whispered in my ear

Rick

I turned her to face each other, I saw her beautiful green eyes and her lips, that desirable lips, I kissed her, first very tender and then with more passion, I found heaven in her mouth… for those who think Lisa is the Ice Queen, let me tell you that she is a great kisser, that kiss was very different for those in Dolzar’s ship or even that occasion we made up in my apartment… this time there was love in both sides, confessed love

- I’ll take care of you, because I love you

Well, so many time, so much space and coincide… truly life is made of instants and that one is one of the best instants in my life, having her in my arms and my lips upon hers.
