Summary: It's been about 5 years since the end of the war. All the GW boys are 22 and Trieze is 28. Trieze lived through the end of the war purely by accident and is now going by the name Trieze Williams. Duo has become a very popular singer but also very lonely. They meet at a nightclub and sparks fly. But after his tragic past, and be betrayed by his friend and ex-lover, will Duo let himself love again?

Duo looked shocked for a moment, then blinked when he realized that the man had moved to the very front of the crowd. And for the first time in 5 years, he felt like smiling. Really smiling. Not the joker's mask or smiling just because he was trying to make somebody else feel better or stop worrying. Duo was shocked but managed to suppress the urge. Instead, he motioned for the band to start the next song.
You think I notice that you're standing there right next to me
Am I suppose to bow my head and thank you gratefully
You break my heart and turn around to get what still remains
I sold my soul and bought my fear; my inner pain
Without a clue I trust I follow you with my eyes blind
And what I cannot see I need I cannot leave behind
With all those eyes on me, their hunger is insanity
I can see you standing there, do you wanna be free, do you wanna be me
I don't want to be the only one
To see my name wrote up on the sun
I don't wanna be the only one
To watch it fall into the sea
I don't wanna have to play the game
To sell my soul, betray my name
I don't wanna be the only one
To watch it fall into the sea
So you just sit there stuck
Afraid to risk reality
Those words are mine
And you can find them deep inside of me
You walk away
Somehow dismayed at what you may have done
The lies, the dreams, the broken promises, the only one
I can't remember whose idea it was to make this real
Divided equally my feelings I still cannot feel
And there you are you're all alone inside your fantasy
I can see you standing there,
Do you wanna be free, do you wanna be me
I don't want to be the only one
To see my name wrote up on the sun
I don't wanna be the only one
To watch it fall into the sea
I don't wanna have to play the game
To sell my soul, betray my name
I don't wanna be the only one
To watch it fall into the sea
And when the light is gone and it's just you and me
Will you allow us to be who we're supposed to be
Or will time erode our thoughts, our will, insanity
I don't want to be the only one
To see my name wrote up on the sun
I don't wanna be the only one
To watch it fall into the sea
I don't wanna have to play the game
To sell my soul, betray my name
I don't wanna be the only one
To watch it fall into the sea
Duo finished his second song and grabbed a bottle of water, while wondering what to play before he took his break. Suddenly, it came to him! He walked over to the band and told them what song to play and that this would be the last one before break time. They agreed and got ready to play. Duo nodded his head and they started the music.
I'm
holding on your rope,
Got me ten feet off the ground
I'm hearin
what you say but I just can't make a sound
You tell me that you
need me
Then you go and cut me down, but wait
You tell me that
you're sorry
Didn't think I'd turn around, and say...
It's
too late to apologize, it's too late
I said it's too late to
apologize, it's too late
I'd
take another chance, take a fall
Take a shot for you
And I need
you like a heart needs a beat
But it's nothin new
I loved you
with a fire red-
Now it's turning blue, and you say...
"Sorry"
like the angel heaven let me think was you
But I'm afraid...
It's
too late to apologize, it's too late
I said it's too late to
apologize, it's too late
Bridge (guitar/piano)
It's
too late to apologize, it's too late
I said it's too late to
apologize, it's too late
It's too late to apologize, yeah
I
said it's too late to apologize, yeah-
I'm holdin on your rope,
got me ten feet off the ground...
Trieze was shocked at the song that Duo had chosen to sing. Then as he listened more closely to the lyrics, he got angry at whoever had pushed away the fey boy so foolishly. He would really like to get his hands on them. Trieze felt his anger diminish slightly as he realized that if that person hadn't left Duo, he might not be here for Trieze to get to know better. Trieze watched as Duo left the stage and talked to a lady then head for the bar. Trieze realized this was his chance and walked towards the bar to talk to the beautiful boy. Before he got there he vowed to help the boy heal even if Duo hated him.
