Okay! So this chapter is for Emilinia-sama! She requested two fics based on the following two songs "Call and Answer" by the Barenaked Ladies (one of my family's fav bands) and "Dancing in the Dark" by Bruce Springsteen. So I hope you like them, Emilinia-sama! Thanks to Hinotama-Soul and lolgreeness for the great reviews!
Okay, disclaimer. I own nada, nothing, zip! Warnings: Slight bashing of Relena (god but I'm a bitch), cursing, and weird formatting.
Song Three- Call and Answer (The Barenaked Ladies)
"Hello?"
"…"
"Uh, hello? Someone there?"
"Duo…"
"Jesus, Heero, whaddya want?"
"…"
"I'm hanging up…"
"Please, don't."
"Fine. What is it, Yuy?"
"I… I want to say something. To you. About us."
"…"
"…"
"Well? Go on, then!"
"Right. I… Duo, I fucked up."
"You're damn right you did!"
"Duo, please let me talk."
"Right, yeah, shoot."
"I shouldn't have… I… what I mean is… I never meant to hurt you."
"Well, you did."
"Dammit, Maxwell, let a man speak!"
"Fine! Talk then!"
"I know you probably hate me, but I just wanted to call and apologize. I had no idea what Relena had planned for that party! Had I known she was going to… to… well…"
"Treat me like a worthless street punk? Make me look like an idiot in front of all our friends? Make out with you? Be a fucking cunt like she always is?"
"Yeah… that."
"Which part of THAT?"
"All of it."
"…"
"…"
"You're making it really hard for me to concentrate."
"How exactly am I making it hard for you to concentrate?"
"You're doing the silent thing again."
"Oh… sorry."
"S'okay."
"Duo, I quit."
"Huh?"
"I quit. I… I abandoned the mission. I told Relena that she could take her attitude and her prejudice and shove it up her royal ass. And I may have also given Marquise a black eye."
"What?! You punched Zechs?! Why?!"
"He tried to say that Relena is just a kid and doesn't understand our relationship, something about girls always making that mistake."
"So you decked him? For being the chauvinist he's always been?"
"No… for thinking she was doing what she did for me, when she did it to hurt you."
"Oh. Yeah, that makes sense."
"Duo?"
"Yes, Heero?"
"I miss you."
"Yeah?"
"Yeah. Look, I know you probably just want me to hang up but I have one more thing to say. I love you."
"Heero I don't…"
"Shut up, 02. I love you and that's not changing anytime soon. I don't care if you are angry. I don't care if you've moved on. I don't even care if you hate me. I'm not going to stop loving you. We've been through too much together. You know too much about me. I don't care what you want me to be to you; I'll gladly be that person. Lover, friend, coworker, ex, antagonist, whatever it is I'll do it. I just want you to be happy. Even if you're not happy with me."
"Can I talk now?"
"Yes."
"Get your ass home, Hee-chan. 'Cause no one on Earth or off it can make me as happy as you do. And I love you too, and I'm so glad you told Relena to go fuck herself. Even if I'm a little upset that you beat up Zechs."
"Nnn… deserved it."
"Oh come on! Zechs is a cool bro!"
"Stop calling him your 'bro'. It's disturbing."
"Do you want to come home and be forgiven or what?"
"Mission accepted."
"Well, good. Get home and get ready to grovel some more!"
"I'll be there in five minutes."
"Try not to get caught speeding."
"Yes, Duo. I love you."
"Love you more."
