Disclaimer: I do not own Gundam Wing just this plot.
Author's Note: I would really appreciate a review guys! That's why it took so long to get out. The only reason this got out was for some people that put an alert on it. I hope you enjoy it but I really do want a review. Thanks Enjoy!
Duo had never hated silence as much as he did now. He thought for sure that Heero would have spoken to him during dinner. Of course not though. They ate in complete silence. If he did speak it was an insult. For example:
"Do you like your steak?"
"Of course I do or I wouldn't be eating it baka,"
Duo wanted to smack the shit out of the guys face. Duo had patience, an astounding amount of it actually, and this man was making all of it go away with one sentence. He hadn't even been in the restaurant with Heero for a half an hour and homicide was looking amazing.
Duo was on auto pilot. He was eating his dinner and being relatively quiet but his mind was going fast. He was thinking of ways to bring up a conversation without Heero rejecting it out right, and it was failing. Duo was so engrossed in his head that he didn't notice the cobalt stare.
Heero was amazed. He had never seen someone so beautiful and it scared him, though he would never tell. Most people that met him would say he was asexual. He never showed interest in anyone. In reality he was very much gay. He had no experience. He always put his work, his missions before everything. That was what he had been taught. You are to finish your missions no matter what the cost and Heero did not plan on breaking that one rule anytime soon. Sure he found Duo attractive but annoying talkative man made him want to choke him. Never in his 23 years of life has he met someone so annoying. He had patience, extreme amounts and a hold on his emotions. This man, this fey creature, made it all go away. He had to work much harder to keep his emotions in check, to keep his lust and anger in check more than anything. He would not let these silly emotions get the best of him. If Duo was to be his new partner then so be it but he would not allow these silly fabrications to come into play.
When they were finished Duo paid and they left. The car ride was quiet, unnervingly quiet. Duo sighed. He couldn't deal with this right now. He had to find his partner and he had to figure out what happened to him. Duo pulled into his driveway and got out with Heero following him. Kisa greeted them when they walked in. Once she had finished she ran off. Duo stretched and went to walk up the stairs but was stopped by Heero's voice.
"You really shouldn't try to figure out what happened to your partner. There is no point or use in it," Heero said coldly. Duo froze and tensed. Rage coursed through his body. He whirled around and walked to him gracefully yet dangerously like a jaguar. Duo walked until he was a couple inches from Heero's face.
"Don't you ever tell me to not look for my partner! Just because you have no problem with being close to someone doesn't mean I am. He was my best friend and no one should ever just give up on someone because of it. So don't you ever give me shit about what I do ever again! If you do there will be dire consequences!" Duo hissed. Heero gave him a cold glare.
"You need to realize that looking for what happened to him is not going to help. Get a new partner and move on," Heero said. Duo got even closer to Heero his eyes blazing and flashing to a deep dark violet.
"Stay out of this! He is my family and I'm not going to stop until I know what happened to him! Keep your damn opinion to yourself or I will personally kick your ass Mr. Fucking Perfect!" Duo spat. He then turned and went up the stairs.
Heero watched him in awe. He couldn't believe someone, no that fey, had yelled. He had many times that people would yell at him but never with that much vigor. Heero knew that he had struck a nerve and he couldn't help but feel a little guilty for what he had done. He shook his head. No he had to say it. Duo couldn't spend his life trying to find out what happened to his partner.
Duo slammed his bedroom door closed and flopped onto his bed burying his face into his pillow to scream out his frustration. Heero didn't know what he was talking about. He doesn't have anyone to think about. He's never lost a partner. He doesn't have a right to say things like that to him. After he screamed out his frustration he started to think about what Heero said. Duo knew he shouldn't have reacted like that but with what had happened at the restaurant and then Heero commenting. Duo sighed. He couldn't give up on looking for Wufei. He would continue on missions but he would keep looking for Wufei no matter what. All he knew was that he would sooner or later have to get use to Heero as much as he didn't want to. Duo grumbled and got up from his bed. He took off his shirt and threw it into his hamper and started to unbutton his pants when he heard his door open. His head snapped up to see Heero there staring at him. Duo looked closer and noticed a slight blush on his face. On the inside he smirked and cheered knowing he affected the cold youth.
Heero walked up the stairs towards Duo's room. He knew that he should say something about what he did. He knocked lightly on the door and when he got no answer he opened the door. He looked in and froze. Duo was there with his shirt off and a button undone on his pants. His eyes racked over the lithe form and noticed all of the hard planes of muscle. He almost licked his lips but realized that he was in fact staring. He looked up and saw Duo looking at him. He blushed.
"Need something?" Duo asked. Heero's blush darkened. Duo watched as Heero fought to regain control of his motor functions.
"N-never mind," Heero stammered and turned walking right out of Duo's room. Duo waited until he heard Heero's footsteps and the closing of a door before he burst into laughter. It felt good to know that Heero was affected by him. Duo was still grinning as he shucked off his pants. Duo pulled the covers up from his bed and crawled in. He fell asleep in a matter of minutes.
Heero growled in annoyance, annoyance with Duo and with himself. He has never reacted that way before. It scared him. He had acted like a blushing school girl! He punched his pillow in frustration. Why did Duo have to look so good? Heero groaned and dry washed his face as he plopped down onto his bed. Heero stared at the ceiling as he calmed down. He sighed. Duo was right that was for sure. Everyone counted him as Mr. Perfect, the perfect man and the perfect soldier. He did what he had to do to complete his mission. He never let his emotions get in the way but he couldn't help but feel that all of that was going to change. He knew the minute he met Duo that things would never be the same. Heero smirked. If Duo was going to play like that then he was going to get it back tenfold. He stripped down to his boxers and slid into bed. He fell asleep thinking of how to get Duo back.
PAGEBREAK
If Duo had known this was what he was going to be awake for he would have woken up hours ago. It was Saturday morning, 8 to be precise. He had showered and blow dried his long chestnut locks then made his way down to the kitchen for breakfast. The sight that greeted him shocked him to his core and sent desire to his loins. Heero was there making breakfast in his boxers. If Duo thought that Heero was gorgeous in clothing then he was even better in nothing. His boxers were a plain blue that came to his mid-thigh and curved just right against his ass. Duo took a moment to look over his new housemate.
Heero's body was muscled just right. He had lots of muscles but nothing to outrageous. His arms bulged a little giving an air of intimidation. His legs were muscular as well just like his arms. When Heero turned Duo almost drooled over the abs there. He was extremely defined and Duo had to resist the urge to run his tongue over them. There was also a thin trail of brown hair going from his navel down to taunt him at the band of his boxers. Duo had to hold in a groan at the image it brought forth. He finally looked up and locked his eyes with Heero's. He immediately saw the amusement in those cobalt eyes. Duo's eyes narrowed. He knew right away that Heero was playing along and getting him back for last night. He was still pissed off about what Heero said but it wasn't as bad especially if he got to see the drool worthy body.
Heero smirked. He got him back but it didn't feel like a great achievement. Duo didn't seem to care that he had been caught gawking. Heero had to resist the urge to bang his head on the refrigerator. He knew he was going to have to go to extremes to get this man back. He finished cooking breakfast, just plain bacon and eggs along with some toast. He plated them on two separate plates and sat one in front of Duo. He grabbed two forks and knives and handed Duo one of each.
They both ate fairly quickly and when they were done they put their dishes into the washer and went to their rooms. Duo got dressed in a pair of black skinny jeans and a red button up shirt with the first two unbuttoned and his black combat boots. He messed with his bangs and fiddled with his braid until it was perfect. He grinned and walked out the door to see Heero exiting as well.
Heero was wearing a pair of boot cut blue jeans that were just tight enough with a white tank top and a yellow button up shirt that was completely open showing how tight the tank was. On his feet was a pair of white tennis shoes. To be all honest he looked like sex on two legs. Duo looked away and walked past him down the stairs.
Heero was only able to hold himself back by sheer force of will. He thought that he could hold himself in check but he was starting to doubt even himself. When Duo walked out from his room he almost pounced. The lithe body just oozed desire and sex. His iron will barely had a thread left after that encounter. As Duo walked past him and Heero almost lost his train of thought. Duo's scent went right to his nostrils and sent a wave of desire through him. It was a deep scent, a scent of lilac and an underlying scent of musk that could just be described as Duo. Heero steeled himself and watched the curve of Duo's ass as he walked down the stairs. Heero sighed and followed after him.
Duo was bored. He wanted to do something fun. Usually this was the day that he and Wufei would go to a club, hang out, and scope out the guys. He grinned. Maybe that would work…
"Hey Heero!" Duo yelled out. A second later Heero was in front of him his face neutral. Duo rolled his eyes.
"Hn?" Heero grunted. Duo inwardly smirked. /I wonder if this is going to work/ Duo thought.
"I'm bored. I'm going to a club and you're coming with me," Duo said matter of fact. Heero narrowed his eyes.
"No," was all he said. Duo deflated a little but kept strong. He walked past Heero towards the door.
"Oh okay I guess if your too scared to go then I won't make-" Duo said but was stunned as an angry Heero stomped past out the house. Duo chuckled. /Knew that would work/ Duo thought. He walked out the door, locked it and got into his car. He was smiling as he drove off and Heero looked extremely pissed off. He hummed happily as he turned the dial on for his radio. Immediately the rock station turned on. Duo started to tap his fingers on the wheel to the beat. Du could feel Heero's gaze on him but he didn't care he liked this song.
Heero was astonished at how easily it was for Duo to get him to come along. Just saying he was a coward was enough to make him abandon all ill attempts at no. He was not one to be persuaded easily and just the mention of one word sent him off. Not that he would ever admit it but he was oddly curious to the club scene. It wasn't what he did in his free time so he knew he would stick out.
"Where is this club located?" Heero asked. Duo stopped humming.
"Somewhere," He said teasingly. Heero gave him a blank stare not caring much for the sarcastic remark. Duo rolled his eyes.
"You'll see soon enough plus were not going straight there anyway. We are not properly dressed for the club scene," Duo explained. Heero almost released a horrified groan but he held it back. The one thing he hated more than the pink terror was shopping. Heero shivered at the mere mention of it. Duo continued to drive towards the mall listening to his music ignoring Heero's shiver. After a few more minutes of driving he parked in the lot of the mall. As he exited the car he grabbed Heero's wrist and dragged him off into the mall. He walked into one of his frequented store and immediately looked around. After grabbing a few things he forced Heero into the dressing room.
"What the Duo!" Heero shouted. Duo laughed.
"Just try them on!" Duo said. He heard a grumble and then the rustle of clothes. Duo waited against the wall and waited. He finally heard the rustling stop. Duo turned and waited for Heero to step out. Once he did Duo knew that he was doomed. The clothes that Duo picked out were tight and fit just right. On Heero were dark blue leather pants and a tight black fitted shirt that clung to every muscle on his torso. Duo had to hold back drool.
"This is embarrassing," he heard Heero mutter.
"No its not you look great!" Duo exclaimed. He heard Heero grunt his negative. Duo chuckled and turned to one of the workers. The woman pointed towards Heero and he nodded. She smiled and went to ring it up. When Duo knew that Heero was about to change back he shouted.
"Heero come out here real quick," Duo said. Heero groaned and walked out his new clothes still on, though he had no idea they were. Duo walked towards him and stopped in front of him.
"Go look at some shoes real quick," Duo stated. Heero gave him a cautious look but went anyway. Duo took that chance to take Heero's original clothing from his fitting room. Duo placed them in a bag he had gotten from one of the sale associates and watched Heero. Thankfully he was looking at shoes that matched his outfit. The ones that he had on, and looked like he was going to get, were a pair of black lace up boots. Duo walked over to the check out and smiled at the woman. She smiled back and told him the amount for the clothing. He paid for it and then walked over to Heero. In a quick movement he ripped the tags off of Heero's shirt and pants. Heero's gaze snapped up to his face blinking at him in surprise. Heero noticed the tags in Duo's hand and glared.
"We didn't buy these and I don't want to," Heero grumbled. Duo gave him a big grin.
"To late," Duo exclaimed cheerfully. Heero's eyes narrowed and noticed the receipt in Duo's hand. He groaned. This clothing was not something he wore. Duo was grinning still as he left Heero with the shoes. Duo picked his outfit immediately. His consisted of black leather pants that had small tears on the thighs and legs of them. His shirt was an amethyst color that made his eyes brighter than usual. He kept his shoes, which were also black lace up, on. He paid for his outfit and Heero paid for his shoes. As they walked towards the car it seemed like Heero had a permanent glare on his face. Duo rolled his eyes and got into the car along with Heero. Duo checked his watch and was pretty happy with the time. He pulled out in the car and drove.
"I vote for eating Chinese," Duo said. He heard Heero give a snort. Duo sneaked a peek at Heero. Heero was chuckling lightly.
"What's so funny?" Duo asked. Heero gave him a small smile.
"I'm part Japanese," Heero stated. Duo was quiet for a moment but then busted out laughing.
"S-sorry Heero I didn't know," Duo said laughing. Heero rolled his eyes.
"Let's just get sandwiches or something," Heero said. Duo nodded and turned into a drive-thru. They ordered and ate on the way to the club since it was about 9 now.
Heero knew immediately when Duo pulled up to the club that he was not going to be happy about this. He could hear and feel the vibration of music from inside the club. It was a large building with a bright neon sign that said Rebels Alliance. He saw movement from the corner of his eye. Duo had the mirror down in front of him and some type of pencil. He watched as Duo applied black to his top and bottom lid. When Duo was done he looked at Heero and he once again was shocked. The black helped his eyes pop even more. Heero looked away willing his lust to stay under control. He felt Duo get out so he followed. The bouncer immediately let him in.
The club was dark with many black lights and multi colored one's going everywhere around the club. There were bodies up against one another gyrating and groping. This was definatly not what Heero does. True to the Perfect Soldier persona he is usually at home updating a mission report or getting information on an upcoming mission. So along with the close body space and the techno music Heero already felt tense. He was frozen to the spot. So he was surprised when he felt a warm hand grab his and drag him. Heero looked up to see that it was Duo. Heero almost let out a sigh of relief. He had forgotten that he was here with Duo. Even though he had only known Duo for a day, well a day and a half, he felt somewhat comfortable with him. He followed closely behind as Duo stopped a table and sat down pulling me into the seat next to him. At the table were two other people. One was a short blonde man. His hair went to his ears and had bright blue eyes and an easy going smile. He had on a white button up shirt and a brown leather vest along with tight blue jeans and simple brown shoes. Next to him with his arm around the blonde was a tall man. He had short brown hair with a long bang that hung over his right eye, which were emerald by the way. He was wearing a tight fitting short sleeved green shirt with dark blue jeans and brown boots.
The blonde looked right at Heero smiling.
"Hello I'm Quatre and the one next to me is Trowa, it's nice to meet you," He stated. Heero was surprised that much was sure. He knew who these two were by their names. Trowa worked at the Gundam Pilots while Quatre was the owner of Winner enterprises. He supplies GP with their weapons, supplies, and everything that was worth anything.
"Heero," He said. Quatre smiled at him warmly. Trowa just locked gazes with him.
"Yuy?" Trowa asked. Heero nodded. He saw a small smile come onto the man's face.
"You don't seem like the perfect soldier since you're here," Trowa stated. Heero grumbled and glared at Duo. He heard a chuckle.
"That explains everything. I'm going to assume Une has made you live with Duo. He has a tendency to bring people with him especially ones he knows won't like it," Trowa muttered. Duo pouted but started to talk to Quatre. As they chatted Heero noticed a man come up to Duo. He listened into the conversation.
"Do you like strawberry jelly?" the man asked. Duo blinked at him and nodded. Soon a piece of paper was given to Duo.
"Call me," The man said and walked away. Duo looked at the paper and then back at the man. He then looked at Quatre and busted out laughing.
"Right," Duo said and shredded the paper. Heero had felt an overwhelming feeling of jealousy but he held it down and was rewarded by Duo shredding the paper. He didn't understand where this emotion was coming from though. He watched as Duo stood and made his way to the dance floor. He felt his desire heighten as he watched Duo dance with perfect rhythm to the music. His body swayed and the lights shimmered around him. It made him even more fey like. Heero then noticed a man come up behind Duo and start to dance with him. Anger went through him quickly. Not even realizing what he was doing he stood and marched towards Duo.
Duo was fine and content with dancing by himself, he actually preferred it. He felt someone come up against him. He tensed for a moment waiting to see what the man would do. The man put his hands on Duo's hips and started to gyrate against his backside. Duo narrowed his eyes and got ready to turn and tell him to back off when the man was ripped from him. Duo turned to see Heero glaring at the man. The man had been pushed to the floor and was glaring at Heero.
"What's the deal man!" the man said. Heero had anger coming from his body.
"If you come near him again you'll regret it," Heero growled. The man chuckled.
"His ass ain't worth this much trouble. He's probably looser than a whore anyway," the man stated. That's what did it. Heero bent down and lifted the man by the shirt and into the air.
"Care to repeat that?" Heero snarled. The man looked scared so he shook his head. Heero dropped him.
"If I see you anywhere near him again you'll wish you had never been born," Heero said coldly. The man scrambled up and ran out of the club. Heero turned to look at Duo. Duo was looking at him surprised but then smiled. He put his hand out and waited. Heero looked at his hand and then placed his hand on Duo's. Duo pulled him close and started to dance with him. Heero watched him for a moment and got the rhythm.
Everyone around the pair stopped and watched. They moved in perfect rhythm with each other. Trowa and Quatre were surprised. Trowa especially. He had thought that Heero was surely uptight but this proved otherwise. Quatre was smiling. He knew now that these two would end up together.
As the song ended Heero dragged Duo back to the table. They sipped at the soda's Quatre had ordered for them. Duo leaned on Heero's arm while Heero wrapped an arm around Duo's waist. They both remained in silence until they went home. They separated and went to the beds to sleep off the excitement of the night.
