A/N: Well, here's chapter 1! Exciting, huh? Yet again, I warn you of the
future freakiness, and there'll be a bit more profanity in this chapter.
But it all contributes to the fun! (Right...?)
Disclaimer: We all know I obviously don't own anything except this story. I mean, come on, if I did would I be writing fan fiction?
Dawn to Dusk
Chapter 1
Concerning Genders
Quatre heard the scream in the middle of folding his shirt, and was horribly confused. For one, why would a girl be screaming in their bathroom, especially about being a girl? The second confusing thought was why would a girl even be in their bathroom?
Putting his shirt down carefully on his bed, Quatre went to investigate. Being polite as always, he knocked on the door.
"Miss? Are you alright," he asked.
Girl-Duo froze. It was Quatre. Could he trust him? Maybe Quatre knew what was going on! Maybe it was some freaky prank!
But could he trust him with this?
Girl-Duo sighed. It didn't look like he had much of a choice. Pulling every ounce of courage he had together, Duo opened the door.
"Hi Quatre," she/he said nervously. The blonde looked paralyzed with shock. "It's me, Duo." Quatre just stood there, no idea what to say.
"D-Duo?" He finally stammered at his friend. "You're a girl!" Duo looked like he was about to die of embarrassment. "How long have you been a girl?"
"Since I woke up," Duo admitted. "I know I was a guy last night, and I've always been male, but I woke up as...this!" He motioned to his now- female body, and Quatre nodded.
"So what turned you into a girl," Quatre asked after recovering from his shock, and Duo shrugged.
"I can't remember," he said. "I was plastered last night." Quatre nodded again with a smile.
"Well, I assume you know we have class in an hour," he said, and Duo turned a ghostly shade of white. "And you obviously can't go as Duo the guy, what with being a girl." Duo sighed. "And you have to go to class."
"Alright, alright," Duo grumbled. "We better go steal me some clothes, then."
Seven minutes later, the two (Duo still in his pajamas) found themselves in the school's laundry room.
"I just feel wrong doing this," Duo muttered as Quatre searched around. "You've got lots of sisters, right? So you'd know all of this stuff?" Quatre chuckled, and motioned him over to a basket of very colorful undergarments.
Duo, hand shaking, pulled out a pink thong, and then dropped it back immediately.
"No way in hell am I wearing that," Duo yelled, and Quatre tried to quiet his friend. "Shinigami does not wear pink underwear!" Quatre, feeling guilty about raiding underwear, finally got Duo to shut up by pulling out a pair of black boy short underwear. Duo sighed.
"It'll do," he muttered darkly, and Quatre smiled encouragingly at him.
"Well, at least we've found everything now," he said brightly. Duo shot a look at the small bag full of girl clothes on the floor, and shuddered a little. "Now all you have to do is get dressed, and act like a girl until we figure out how to fix you! Besides, I have history (their first class) with you, so I can help you out." Duo slouched.
"And I thought just finding clothes was hard," he muttered, and they slunk out of the laundry room back to their dorm.
Twenty minutes later (and with twenty minutes to class), Duo stood in the skirt and blouse required of him from the school, glaring at his reflection. Quatre clapped when Duo stepped out, only to have a pillow thrown in his face.
"There's no way I can walk in this," he said, motioning to the skirt. "I can't go to class!" Quatre shrugged.
"Well, the others are coming back as soon as our class starts," Quatre said innocently. "I'm sure they could try and help you out." Duo blushed. He would NOT let Heero see him as a girl. It was just too embarrassing.
"You just better not leave me in the middle of class," Duo warned, and Quatre reassured his friend he would never leave at such an important time.
"And what's your name," the teacher asked Duo as he walked nervously into the room. Duo froze.
"Ummm... my name's...day...uhh," Duo said, and Quatre stepped in to save the day.
"Her name's Dea Maxwell," he supplied, stealing the name from Duo's rambling, and the teacher chuckled.
"There's no need to be so nervous," she chuckled, but then checked her roll sheet, and frowned. "That's funny, I have a Duo Maxwell but no Dea."
"Typo," Duo blurted out, nervous to the point of considering suicide. "My brother's named Duo, but I'm a girl, so it couldn't be me." Duo hated lying. Quatre smacked himself on the forehead as the teacher looked 'Dea' over.
"Well, take your seats," she finally stated. "It's alphabetical, so you can just take the one with your name on it." Duo grimaced. The teacher now thought he was an idiot. With a friendly pat on the shoulder, Quatre took his seat, and 'Dea' took hers.
"Hi Dea," a blonde girl in front of him said. "I like your braid." Duo's face lit up.
"Thanks! I get tons of grief about it from...my friends. It's good to know someone can appreciate nice hair for once," he said, and the girl giggled.
"I'm Sarah," she said, tossing her blonde hair over her shoulder, and gave him one of those 'don't hate me cause I'm beautiful' smiles. "So, how do you know Quatre?"
"Oh, we work together," he said, and Sarah seemed intrigued. "He's one of my best friends, too." Sarah seemed a little more apprehensive about him now, and Duo was tempted to emulate Quatre and smack himself on the forehead. The girl had a crush on Quatre! Duo was tempted to tell her about Trowa, but decided Quatre might not want that little secret of his out just yet.
And then the conversation from last night slipped into his head. The girl obviously noticed something was up, and seemed to be asking him something, but Duo was past hearing her.
"What the hell was I thinking last night," Duo finally yelled, and the entire class looked over at 'Dea', who sat slouched in her chair almost ready to pull out her braid. When Duo finally realized everyone was staring at him, he slouched back even more, put his head on his desk, and wished he were dead.
As class went on, Duo didn't hear a word of it. He was an idiot- a completely hung over, hormonal idiot. Shit. He'd asked for this. He'd actually asked to be a girl.
After class, Quatre had to pry Duo's head from his desk. "What was the outburst about," he whispered, and Duo signaled he'd tell him later. Gathering his stuff together, Duo walked out of the room, only to find Sarah next to him.
"So, about Quatre," she began, but Duo stopped dead in his tracks. Wufei was walking towards him.
"Hide me," he pleaded, and with a giggle, Sarah forced him into the girl's bathroom. "Wait, I can't-" he cut himself off, and this time really did smack himself in the forehead. 'Duh! I'm a girl now!' he thought.
Back in the hallway, Wufei stopped as a girl pushed someone with a long brown braid wearing a skirt into the girl's bathroom. Was that...? No, it couldn't have been.
With a shake of his head, Wufei continued down the hall to the cafeteria.
----- A/N: Well, that's Chapter 1! How do you like it? I'm so excited for chapter 2! All I'm going to say is lunch and sunset will be veeery interesting...! Please review, and thanks for reading!
