I do wish I owned Heero Yuy though, lol -

This fic has yaoi (male/male) in it, so if you are offended or a minor, don't read it!

Silence. It was all around Heero as he slowly glided through space in his Gundam. The war was long since over, and the five Gundam pilots had split off to go their separate ways. Little did they know they would all be summoned together once more to assemble together on Earth, and to the palace of Relena Peacecraft.

As Heero got clearance to enter into the Earth's atmosphere, he silently went over his mission in his head. It was not a big one, but for Heero, he only felt alive and worth something if he was fighting. Relena needed to quell a small resistance group's activities on Earth. She probably could have done it with the power she already had, but she had her own wishes staked in the Gundams coming as well.

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

"Miss Peacecraft, I have been informed that the Gundam piloted by Heero Yuy has got clearance to breach the atmosphere, and should be arriving on Earth shortly."

Relena, who had been sitting in her room staring blankly into space, whirled around when she heard this, and thanked the soldier, who then left with a bow.

'Heero…' Relena slowly got up and walked over to the large glass doors leading out to a little balcony. She had not seen Heero in so long, and couldn't stop herself from using the resistance to make an excuse for him to come back to Earth. She could no longer keep her feelings silent, and had to see him again. Relena knew she loved Heero since the first moment she saw his face, or rather, his face covered by his hand. Relena giggled a little, for Heero had no idea that instead of protecting his identity, all he did was look seductive to her eyes.

Relena's hair fluttered as she turned on her heels and walked out of the room, eager to meet Heero as soon as he landed.

Heero, meanwhile, was being guided into the docking bay. Once his Gundam was in an acceptable area, he disembarked and stepped foot onto the metal walkway with a clank. No sooner had he descended the steps to the ground, when he noticed Relena facing him, smiling.

"Hello, Heero."

Heero merely glanced at her, and walked past, ready to fulfill his mission.

Relena, trailed by bodyguards, walked up and placed herself by Heero's side.

"What is the status on the resistance?"

'Humph, the first thing he says to me after all these years.' Relena thought to herself. She smiled to herself. 'He hasn't changed at all.'

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Relena showed Heero to a large room with a long table in it, obviously the room intended for meetings and the like. The other Gundam pilots were already there and seated, and after so long apart, they all greeted Heero warmly, even if he wasn't so obvious in his recognition of them.

Heero over to take his seat, and he eyed his neighbor out of the corner of his eye as he sat down. He was seated next to Duo, who was enthusiastically trying to catch up with him about all their lost years. Heero set up as cold as a façade as he could and tried to ignore Duo's talking.

He was relieved when Relena quieted the room to discuss the mission of the pilots.

She went over the basic happenings and goings on of the resistance group, and informed the Gundam pilots that their job was to take out the few Gundams that the group had managed to secure, and try to keep order as the offenders were taken into custody.

"When are we to seize their headquarters?" Trowa asked from behind his bangs.

"We have scheduled the raid for 1:30 AM, when most civilians will be asleep and out of the streets, and hopefully the resistance will be asleep as well, allowing us to catch them off guard." Relena relayed to the five. "You are free to do as you wish until then, though I would recommend getting some sleep, I have arranged for rooms for all of you."

Relena stood up, and she, along with servants of the palace, showed all the respective pilots their rooms.

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

When they arrived at their rooms, it just so happened that they where all on the same floor as Relena's room. She wanted to be as close to Heero as possible, but had to allow everyone else to be near her as well, as not to raise any suspicions.

As they all headed off to their room, Relena noticed that Quatre trailed after Trowa and went into his room with him. She, being raised in a rather proper environment, had never quite approved of their relationship, but decided to say nothing.

Heero, once inside his own room, removed his green tank top and lay upon his bed, trying to get into the right mental attitude for the operations he was about to carry out. Suddenly, he heard a knock at his door, yet before he could open it himself, Duo came charging into the room, his long braid trailing after him.

"Heero! It's been so long!" Duo bounced on his bed, making Heero frown.

"…Yes, it has." Heero grumbled between his teeth.

They sat for a long while talking, well, mostly Duo talked, about what he had started earlier in the meeting room.

Finally, after Duo seemed to tire himself out, the room became silent once again.

Heero was about to ask Duo why he was still there, when both of them turned towards the wall of Trowa's room. They listened once more for the sound, and sure enough, they heard a little moan coming from behind the wall, a moan that sounded like Quatre's.

They both quickly snapped their heads away from the wall, knowing very well what was going on. All of the pilots knew that Trowa and Quatre loved each other.

Suddenly, a little smirk appeared on Duo's face, and Heero was not fast enough to notice it before Duo knocked him onto the floor on his back.

"Heero…" Duo cooed "hearing all that noise gets me in the mood…" Duo slowly traced circles on Heero's bare chest.

"Duo, get off…"

Before Heero could finish, they heard a knock on the door.

"Heero, this is Relena, can I come in?"

Heero knocked Duo on to his back as he scrambled to his feet and opened the door.

"Ah, Heero," Relena beamed at him.

Heero proceeded to stomp right past her. "I'm going out." Heero snarled.

"Out? Without a shirt on?" Relena seemed quite puzzled, but she knew very well she could not stop Heero now, and, defeated, she closed the door behind her and went back to her own room, trying to ignore the little moans and sighs coming from Trowa's room.

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

"Man, Heero must be really mad at me." Duo lamented to himself as he made his way back to his own room after sneaking out of Heero's (he was behind the bed, out of Relena's eyesight, so she didn't know he was in there).

He went in the little room and shut the door behind him, where he then threw himself on his bed with a sigh.

'I really wasn't kidding, Heero…' Duo thought to himself.

He closed his eyes and let his mind wander to the first time Heero and him met, and to all they went through after that. As he thought about Heero, Duo couldn't ignore the stirring in his pants.

"Heero…" Duo mumbled to himself as he let his hand trail down his stomach towards his growing erection.

As he reached his destination, he slowly pulled down his pants, releasing his manhood from its prison. Slowly, he began to stroke himself, getting even harder. Duo started to breathe harder and harder, quickening his pace. Sweat dripped off his forehead as he ran his hand faster along his shaft. He squeezed his eyes shut, trying to image it was Heero doing these things to him, and brought his hand up to his mouth to suck on his fingers.

"Oh…god…" Duo moaned to the empty room. He started to pant, and his strokes became frantic as he brought himself to climax.

"Ung….ahhhhh" Duo pictured Heero in his mind, and this sent him over the edge. "Ahhh!" Duo came in his hand, and lay on the bed, exhausted, thoughts of Heero still lingering in his mind.

When Duo was finally able to bring his breathing back to normal, he reluctantly got up to wash off his hands. As he looked at himself in the bathroom mirror, a lone tear could be seen sliding silently down his cheek.

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Heero did not come back the rest of the day, but was not late when the five pilots set out to complete their objective. It went down with no problems, and was of little excitement, as the resistance pretty much gave up after seeing the power of the Gundams.

So, soon enough, the team headed back to the palace once again.

As they headed back to their rooms, all except Quatre, who went with Trowa, Relena got herself ready for what she was about to say. She waited until she was sure everyone was behind their closed doors, and, with a shaking hand, knocked lightly on Heero's door.

"Come in."

Relena cracked the door open just enough so she could slide herself inside.

Heero glanced up at her before looking back out the window, where the sky outside was dark and stormy, with droplets of rain starting to patter on the window pane.

"Um…Heero, can I talk to you?" Relena went and sat down lightly on the edge of the bed, next to Heero. She sighed to herself, and prepared to spew everything she wanted to say in one go.

"Heero, ever since I first saw you, my feelings for you have grown everyday, and I have come to realize that I love you, and want you to stay in the palace with me."

'Whew, I said it.' Relena thought to herself as she waited for Heero to respond.

When he didn't say anything, Relena cleared her throat as if saying it was alright for him to speak.

"I'm sorry."

Relena's eyes widened. "What!"

"I don't feel the same about you. And I would never allow myself to feel that way about anyone."

Relena's cheeks grew hot as she felt tears stream from her eyes, just as outside the rain started to beat on the window.

"What? Why? If you let yourself love, could you love me?" Relena clenched onto Heero's arm.

"No." Heero said flatly.

Relena stood up suddenly, causing Heero to look at her. As fast as she could, she extended her hand and sent it swinging to slap Heero, but he grabbed her by the wrist as she got near and stopped her cold.

He glared at her with cold eyes. "Do not strike me."

Relena's lips quivered. While Heero still held her, she leaned in and kissed him hard.

A creak could be heard as the door to Heero's room was opened and Duo stuck his head inside. He was on his way to talk to Heero, though he really just wanted to be near him. He came in at just the moment Relena kissed Heero, and his eyes grew wide. Despite himself, he couldn't help but gasp a little at the sight before him.

Heero, who heard him, shifted his eyes to gaze into Duo's. He was a little shocked when he saw that they were filled with tears. As quickly as he had looked at him, Duo was gone, trying to run from what he just saw.

'Duo!' Heero pushed Relena off of him and stood up. "Duo, wait!"

Relena's eyes widened and she wiped away her tears.

"You're like them?" Relena whispered.

"What?"

"You're like Trowa and Quatre, aren't you? Instead of loving a women and being normal…"

"Shut up!" Heero fumed.

Relena was startled at his sudden outburst, he rarely allowed anyone to see his emotions.

"Their love is far from abnormal." Heero said, not looking at Relena.

"No, it's wrong!" Relena shouted.

Heero glared at her with more hate than she had ever seen in anyone's eyes. "You wonder why I could never love you…"

Heero left his words floating in the air as he raced out of the room to look for Duo.

All Relena could do was sit in awe at what Heero had just said.
