"Revealed secrets:"
The clock was slowly ticking it's way towards it's ultimate destination and Heero wished that the final lesson could just end. In his opinion, the clock couldn't tic it's way towards three o'clock fast enough. The rage after Relena's earlier speech was still burning inside of him, but luckily he hadn't seen her any more this day.
The teacher had suddenly stopped talking and everybody was on their way out. Heero quickly packed his things down in the bag and headed for the door, when-
"Mr. Yuy? If you're not in a hurry, I would like a word with you."
Silently cursing the teacher, he turned. "I'm kind off in a hurry, but I got a minute or two, Mr. Khushrenada."
Mr. Khushrenada nodded and Heero walked towards his desk.
"You seemed like you've become very comfortable here already, Mr. Yuy. I saw you this morning with some of our students. You seemed like you had a good time."
Blushing, Heero thought about his earlier outburst. "Yeah. They were really friendly with me yesterday, and I think they could become great friends."
Mr. Khushrenada nodded again and smiled. "That's good. Now, I wanted to go through your work plan for the year. It seems like some of your classes is crashing and I principal Une would like for you to straight it up as quick as possible. Now, we still have some offers left for you to pick and-"
Heero just wanted to bang his head in the desk. This was going to take a long time.

Half an hour late for his meeting with Duo, Heero run towards the field, praying that the long haired teen would still be there. Turning the last corner he smiled as his gaze landed on the filed.
Leaned against one of the goal posts, a black clothed teen was reading a book, his foot gently placed on a basketball.
Running onto the field, Heero stopped in front of the ten, panting.
"Sorry that I'm late, Duo. Mr. Khushrenada needed a word with me."
Duo smiled and closed the book. "Old Treize, huh? He surely can make a minute seem like an hour. In that chase, you're forgiven. You've already suffered for your late-coming."
Heero smiled and dropped his bag outside of the field.
"I had detention with him once. The worst day of my life." Coughing, Duo dropped the book into his bag. "Well, one of my worst days. Catch!" Picking up the ball and throwing it towards Heero, he smiled. Heero reacted quickly and caught the ball, quickly passing it back again. Duo's smile became wider as he caught the ball and started to bounce it on the ground.
"Good reflects. Played much were you used to live?"
Heero nodded and snatched the ball. Turning, he passed it towards the hoop. The ball bounced of the plate and fell trough the ring. Smirking, he turned towards Duo again. Duo whistled, obviously impressed.
"Maybe you can give me some challenge, then." Heero took of his jacked, only wearing jeans and a green tank top. Stripping of his watch as well, he turned towards Duo. "Bring it on, Maxwell."
Pealing of his own leather jacked, Duo's clothing was reduced to black jeans and a black t-shirt. Taking of his silver cross, Duo kissed it before he lied it in his pocked. His watch, on the other hand, remained on his wrist. Duo picked up the ball and bounced it once towards the ground.
"Okay, but I won't go easy on you, buddy. Basketball is my game."
***
Two and a half our later, the two teen were sitting on the stands, panting and sweaty. Duo ran his hand trough his bangs and smiled.
"Man. Don't think anybody has given me a challenge like that for a long time. You almost whopped my ass."
Heero smiled and used his jacked to dry away some sweat from his forehead. "I only lost with about three or four points. If you hadn't insisted on quitting the game, I would have nailed you."
Duo laughed. "In your dreams maybe, buddy. I chose to quit now before it become to embarrassing for you."
Nudging Duo with his shoe, Heero laughed. He couldn't remember the last time he had so much fun, or a work out like that.
Taking a swig from his water bottle, Duo passed it to Heero. "You want some?"
Heero nodded and took it. As he drunk from the bottle, he remembered Relena's earlier words. He wondered if Duo knew about those rumors.
"Say, Duo? Do you now a girl named Relena?"
"Princess Pink? I know her. She hates my guts. Her ultimate goals is to be the queen of the world, then paint it pink and watch me die from the sign."
"Why does she has so much against you?"
Duo reached for the water bottle and let cold surface of the bottle cool down his forehead. "I'm not sure, actually. I know I insulted her dress once, but that's the only thing I've ever done towards her. At least the only thing I can remember."
Heero nodded. "Why do you ask?"
"Hn, it was something she said about you when I told her I'd met you."
"Oh, yeah? What?"
Heero leaned back onto the stands, letting the breeze blow over his flushed skin. "That you were no good and was not like you seemed. And if I were alone with you, you would hit on me and stuff. Basically, she kept nagging on that you were gay."
With that, Duo let his hand down and became quiet. Heero go back up and looked at the teen.
"What's wrong?"
"I was hoping I could tell you first, but she just had to come and destroy everything. Fucking bitch."
Heero raised an eyebrow. "So you are-?"
Blowing, Duo looked away. "Yes, I am gay. I was going to tell you later during our match, but it just slipped my mind."
Running his hand trough his bangs again, Duo got up and walked towards his bag. Heero just sat there, thinking. He didn't notice that the braided teen was walking away. Luckily, Duo wasn't quite ready to leave.
"Sorry that my sexual preferences is annoying you, Heero. I was hoping that we could become friends. That you would be among the people that understand me and my feelings. But I guess I was wrong according to this silence."
Heero snapped his head up and looked at Duo. "Don't go."
"Huh?"
Heero got up and run towards the teen. "Don't go. I... I didn't mean to become so distance. I... I was just thinking."
Scratching his head, Heero looked at the slightly confused teen. "Duo, I'm not disturbed by your sexual preferences. I couldn't care less, 'cause your still a really, really nice guy, and I would love to be your friend."
Duo's heart shaped face once again broke into a gigantic smile, a smile that warmed Heero. "Really?"
"Hai. Besides, I couldn't let you leave without telling me about that troop of yours." Duo nodded and they walked back to the stands. Sitting down, Duo smiled.
"My troop of 'Fallen Angels'. Just like every other school, this school has their groups. Too bad there is one group that almost every guy on this school is member of. It's the people that has something against gay people. When I started here, I came out immediately, 'cause I wanted to sort out real friends and just 5-minute friends. The result? Quatre, Trowa, Wufei, Hilde and Trowa's sister Catherine. Wufei's girlfriend Meilan was also a member of your little group, but she and her parents moved back to China. Wufei didn't take that so well."
Coughing, Duo scratched the tip of his nose before he continued. "The reason I call them 'Fallen Angels' is because they are angels. Really nice angels, but I've dragged them down in the mud with me. The homophobes on the school is picking on them just as much as they are picking on me, just because they are my friends. But my little troop is also the only safe place for people to come out. Quatre did almost at the same time as me, but just among the lot of us. And Trowa told us that he was bisexual just last year. I've told them to keep it secret so they won't be bothered as much as me."
Heero nodded. "Peple like that belong in kindergarten. And the guys is always worst when it comes to that."
Duo smiled. "Sounds like you know what we're going trough. Are you-?"
Heero lifted his shoulder. "Don't know. I haven't met any special people that has brought out any type of feelings in me. Nor girl or boy. So I don't know."
Duo nodded. "I've always known. Well, at least since secondary school. I fell in love with a guy there that beat the crap out of me when he learned that I was gay. He was also my best friend."
Heero snorted. "Some best friend."
"But as Relena said, I'm not what I seem to be. I'm stuffed with surprises."
"Wanna share some more of them?"
Duo laughed. "I would love to, but it's time for me to go home."
Heero nodded and Duo got onto his feet. Grabbing his bag, he waived towards Heero and headed for the gate.
"Duo?" Turning, Duo faced Heero. "What?"
"How much does it cost to become a 'Fallen Angel'?
Duo smiled. "For you, my friend, it will only cost you your reputation and for free I will add a couple of bullies."
Heero laughed. "I'm sure it's worth the price. Count me in."
Duo grinned before he gave him the thumps up. Heero waived and watched as Duo disappeared down the street.
''Fallen Angel', huh?' he thought. 'I think I'll fit nice in that troop.'
