No, I don't own Gundam Wing or any of it's characters. If I did I wouldn't be here, sigh.

Ok! So I finally got the edited version of this up. I mean…I'm not negligent …I totally edited it before posting..cough…sigh.. Anyways!

Duo POV, shonen ai, naked Duo.

The hot water flowed down his back as he pressed his hands to the wall. It was almost calming in a way. The hot spray seemed to relieve all tension and washed the dried blood from his hair. He stood there watching the blood circle the porcelain tub before disappearing down the drain. Clearly he was still bleeding from somewhere, but he was too relaxed to care at this point.

The blood was almost mesmerizing, blending with the water to become almost a faint pink. This was the only time when Duo would ever admit to not minding the colour pink…when the blood was so diluted that it took on a more innocent shape.

Duo was stirred from his thoughts to a loud knock on the door. "Duo? Are you ok there?" Quatre asked in a concerned voice. You could always count on someone to ruin a nice moment after a battle. "You've been in there a while and..." he was cut off, "Duo, no ones checked your wounds yet. You need to be looked at before you sleep." Heero's monotone voice was easily recognizable.

Duo reluctantly shut the shower off and stepped out. He grabbed his towel and wrapped it around his waist, quickly giving himself a look over before opening the door. "I'm fine you guys, no major cuts or anything." Duo knew this wasn't exactly true, he was still bleeding after all, but it wasn't exactly lie ether. It's not like he was dying or bleeding out. And of course, being checked over meant being touched and that was about as low on his list of things to do as befriending an OZ mercenary. He let out a small chuckle at the thought.

"Duo, you knew it's not safe to not check you over. You could get an infection or something." Quatre was standing beside the bathroom door while Heero had taken up residence on the edge of Duos' bed. /Now there's a sight I doubt I'll ever see again, Heero Yuy on my bed. / Duo thought to himself. It was as if Heero could hear his thoughts because at that very moment he stood up and walked towards the other boys. "I'll take a look at him when he dries off; check on the others for now." Quatre simply nodded, gave Duo a brief glance as if to apologize for something and walked out. /Damn space heart. He knows something's up which means I'll have some explaining to do later. / Duo thought to himself.

Any further thought was interrupted by Heero. "Sit down. I'll get the first aid kit." It wasn't a question and if there was anything Duo did not need it was Heero Yuy running his hands down his body right now. "Look Heero, I'm really alright..." he did a quick spin, "See, nothing. And no offence Heero, but I could really do without your hands poking and prodding me, ya know?" /At least not at the moment/ he thought to himself with a smirk. With that Heero simply turned around. "Hn. Fine." He flipped his covers back and crawled into bed.

Duo just watched, surprised at how quickly, and easily Heero had given up. /Was it something I said? Sheesh./ Duo walked over to his side of the room, quickly pulled on his boxer shorts and climbed beneath his own covers.
