Disclaimer: I don't own Gundam Wing, or any of its characters, so don't sue me!

Pairing: 1x2 3x4 and any others I add (because I am all powerful!!)

Plot: Weell…basically takes off from where my prequel 'Duo gets PMS' leaves off. (If you haven't already read it - read it, it is good - So I am told)

Anyway, if you haven't read it, Duo starts acting odd, and it turns out he is actually pregnant.

This is the how and, basically, aftermath of that - with funny stuff thrown in (I hope). R+R please!

Chapter One - Heero's POV (Uh oh)

A beautiful morning.

That's what Quatre said anyway, I wouldn't know since I haven't looked out of the window yet, let alone gone outside.

I haven't eaten anything yet either, according to Trowa, who should know, seeing how he is as observant as I am. Or used to be, since I wasn't even aware he was there when he started speaking.

I can't seem to move. Almost as though a strange paralysis has taken over my body during the night. I can think though. That seems to be all I can do.

That, and stare at the door to our bedroom.

It seems like years since Sally came down stairs yesterday and calmly announced that Duo had fainted. It certainly feels as though I have been waiting here for years, just waiting for him to open the door and let me in.

Sally assures me that he is fine, in perfect health, that he's just had a bit of a shock.

She doesn't know him as well as me though. And I know of nothing on this earth, or in space, that could shock Duo enough to make him faint. Get him mad, sure, but faint? No way in hell.

The door finally creaks open and I leap to my feet, practically dancing on my feet at the thought of seeing how Duo is for myself. Only to slump back down in disappointment when Sally comes through.

I'd sent her in again when Duo hadn't made an appearance yet, and it didn't appear to have had any effect.

"Heero, can I have a word with you? Somewhere more private?"

I blink once, then nod, still staring at the door with both eyes.

She gently took my arm and steered me down the hall to our other spare bedroom, the unoccupied one. Once in she sat me on the bed, then crouched down to eye level.

This made me uncomfortable. She was paying too much attention to my comfort, in making a connection with me. I had seen the tactic used far too many times to mistake it for something else, I had been trained to recognise it.

She had bad news.

The thought hit my stomach like a stone fist, and I felt a wave of blackness wash through me.

The sensation passed, and I realised she had started speaking again. I distantly wondered what the darkness had been, before concentrating on more important matters. Like what Sally was saying.

"Duo is pregnant."

That got my attention.

Just sitting there in silence as it sank in I swore I could hear the beat of Duo's heart in our bedroom on the other side of the house, soon to be two beats.

I didn't question what she said, knowing she wouldn't play a joke like that on me. Maybe the others, but not me. I just sat there, listening to the slightly too fast beating of that damn heart. That heart I loved.

"Heero?" Sally questioned, worriedly checking my face for a reaction.

"Can I see Duo now?"

"Yes, of course. He just didn't want to be the one to break the news I don't think. He's…pretty upset Heero, so…don't be too hard on him, okay?"

I just stared at her when she said that. Maybe Wufei was right, maybe women really were stupid. As if I would be hard on him, it was hardly his fault, however it did happen. Besides…for some reason, the thought of having a baby with Duo didn't upset me as much as I'd have thought it would have.

Duo was sat up in bed, looking pale but clear eyed. To Sally he must have looked resolute, calm and accepting of his 'condition' so to speak. I saw beyond the front though, catching the slight glimmer at the very back of his eyes.

Hidden to anyone else, only I could catch a glimpse of this Duo Maxwell. I saw the frightened child, peaking out at me from behind a fall of satin-like hair, tears glistening as it waited to be rejected once more.

Then the image was gone, and I was staring at the mask again, a slight cynical smile curling the corner of one lip up, as his hands lay motionless in his lap.

He nodded at Sally, and she turned and exited the room.

Once the door was closed I was by his side in an instant, pulling him into my arms and watching as the mask was dropped.

Tears poured down his face, the attempt at a smile completely gone now. His hair slipped free from his haphazard braid, tumbling over his shoulders like a living thing, warm from his body heat.

I held him to me, breathing in the sweet scent of him, listening to his heart thundering. No longer from far away, but from right next to my ear, where it belonged.

"Heero, what will I do? How can this be happening? It's just a dream, but I want to wake up now, and I can't, and I'm so scared, what am I going to do? How can you stand me? I want to go, I don't like this, why can't I go?" I pressed my lips to Duo's head, and rubbed his back, something I got off of the vid comm.

"Shh..calm down Duo, it will be alright, I swear. I'll be right here, you don't have to be afraid, I've got you and I'm not letting go."

I repeated my litany over and over again, waiting for him to stop crying before I tried to have a proper conversation.

Finally he stopped crying, only hiccuping occasionally.

"Better?" He nodded, wiping the last tears from his eyes. "Know that you don't have to make any decisions right now, we still don't know exactly how this happened, unless you do?"

He shook his head, turmoil sinking below the surface again as he started thinking rationally again.

"Whatever you do decide I will stand by you Duo, know that, and know I love you and always will. Nothing could change that. You being able to get pregnant just makes you even more unique, if possible." A small chuckle greeted my last comment, as well as a small shove.

"It would probably be best to tell the others soon, but we could get Sally to do that for us, since she has such practise at saying it by now. I'm guessing she's the reason you fainted yesterday?"

Duo nodded, and I tightened my arm around him.

"I'm guessing she gave you as much warning as she gave me then?"

"You could say that." A self-conscious shrug accompanied his words, and a smile tugged my lips involuntarily at the mental image I had of that moment.

Okay, kind of abrupt ending, but I really want to do the next bit in someone else's POV - no not telling who - wait and see! (I know, me=evil)

Okay…let's see…R+R, please!

I'm sorry it took so long for me to get this up, but I started my job and college practically simultaneously and that was a pretty big whallop!? Don't worry though, there is a lot more to come for this story, just not right now.

I did want to do it all in one big go, you know type all of the chapters up, then upload them all at once, but a friend of mine suggested I do it slower, so I am!

The next chapter should be funny - hopefully - as opposed to this soppy one. All of my Heero's turn out soppy for some reason - wishful thinking? Could be.
