A/N: For starters, I do love DuoXHilde. Don't get me wrong. This is part of an OC series. For anyone that's interested, Trowa's and Wufei's are done and up, and Quatre's is in progress, but a few chapters are up. Anyway, on with the story.
Disclaimer: I don't own Gundam Wing and I make zero profit from this. I do own Renee Selena Darlian/Peacecraft, well, not her last names. Anyway, could you please ask if you want to use her?
Duo was not a morning person.
He had gotten up early to work on his Gundam, begrudgingly so since the sun hadn't even attempted to rise yet, but was surprised when a girl wandered into the hangar.
"Relena?" He blinked, staring at her. She looked like Relena, at least, but the glint that was always in Relena's eyes was non-existent in hers. "Are you ok, Lady?" Duo inched closer to her.
The girl looked up at him, rubbed her eyes and looked away. She looked almost like a carbon copy of Relena, without the braids and the proud sparkle. She was wearing a pink dress that came down to her ankles and sneakers that were drawn on in purple marker.
"Hey..." Duo took another step. Heero would be up in a half hour, and maybe he could tell him what was going on, but Duo would have to keep this girl here for the moment. He grabbed her arm, not too hard since he didn't want to hurt her, and got the shock of his life.
Relena's carbon copy screamed, a wordless screech. Duo didn't let go of her arm, he figured that she would realize in a minute or two that he wasn't going to hurt her.
"Hey, calm down!" Duo struggled with her for a minute, a minute more of Duo trying to soothe her and a minute more of her screaming.
Finally, he let go of her and instead of running for the door, she ran to a corner pressed herself into it, looking worried and panicked.
"What is all the yelling about?" Heero stepped into the room and stared at Duo and the girl momentarily before sighing. "Renee." He greeted, stone faced. "She's Relena's twin. Though as you can tell they're different by far."
"How did she get in here?" Duo blinked, staring at the girl. "It's not exactly like we have an open door policy here."
"Hell if I know." And with that, Heero disappeared back out the door.
"Well you're a big frickin help, aren't you?" Duo huffed and stepped towards the girl. "Do you talk?"
Renee looked down and tried to press herself further into her corner.
"I'm not going to hurt you." Duo sighed, but he stopped advancing. "I'm not that kind of guy."
Renee shot him a look that screamed that she didn't believe him.
"I'm Duo Maxwell, I may run and hide but I never tell a lie. That's me in a nutshell." Duo grinned at her. "Now, if you'll excuse me I have work to do."
He figured she was harmless enough to stay; after all she hadn't tried to hurt him yet.
"Th-" Renee looked down and then back at Duo. "Th... Thank y-you."
Duo looked at her in surprise, and then grinned again. "No problem." He said, giving a little laugh. "No problem, Lady."
A/N: My first chapters are always short. Anyway, drop me a review if you will, I love hearing from readers. Thank you for reading!
