Chapter Four

A spot of Lunch

DISCLAIMER: Erm as much as I wish I did, and trust me I wish I did, I own none of the characters featured in Gundam Wing, which is probably a good thing, 5 gorgeous boys like that, I wouldn't let them out of my room let along my house to fight.

AUTHOR NOTE: Here's chapter 4 people. This has to be my fave so far no doubt about it. I'm gonna keep this short so I just hope you enjoy it as well. Oh and the long description is for Jenihenpen so it may be a little... well ok a lot OTT but just go with it, it's just for fun after all. Erm Chapter five isn't written yet but I promise I'll put it at the top of my thing to do list. Anyhow enjoy

            "Look Quatre I'm telling you, you're the one who's getting the better deal. Not me. Let me run it through for you. I get just one slice of chocolate cake, just one and admittedly it's a big one, but and this is the best part. Quatre you get 5 different kind of vegetable, 5 that means you get 4 more things then I do come on you know it's fair" Quatre glanced up from his food where he was slowly working through the huge portion of food the lady had given him after giving him the once over, to the huge bit of chocolate cake that he had managed to get, much to Duo's disgust. He turned his gaze to the heap of vegetable than back to his cake, at last his gaze turned to Duo who was watching him with big puppy dog eyes. Quatre smiled serenely back at his hopeful friend.

            "Duo as much as your offer is..." he paused as he thought of the right word "Tempting. I'll have to say no, the dinner lady obviously feels I need feeding more and I wouldn't want to disappoint her after all so I'll stick to the cake" Duo's hopeful face dropped dramatically

            "Hmmm" he said crossing his arms and flicking his head to the side "Fine Quatre be like that" he said "But don't come to me when your arteries and Veins and shit all clog up and you die of a heart attack at say 20 because I'll just turn round and say I told you so, you should of given me that piece of cake" Quatre stared at him for a second then erupted into giggles, Duo turned back to him in surprise "I don't think I heard you laugh so much" Quatre's shoulders continued to shake "Okaaay that's enough" Quatre nodded and managed to bring himself back under control though his eyes still twinkled in merriment and a big smile was on his face.

            "Excuse me. If anyone isn't sitting here, can I? There's nowhere else" a quiet but nevertheless sexy voice interjected at that moment. Duo and Quatre looked up in surprise that someone had actually said something to them, and then stared, Duo's mouth falling open as he did so. To say that the boy in front of them holding his tray was good looking was the understatement of the year, Duo and Quatre were considered good looking, that boy was stunning. He was slim and had a graceful elegant appearance about him that put them both at ease straight away with him. He had straight light brown hair that was cut short at the back while the fringe covered his right eye. He had an oval face with pale clear skin that looked soft while he had perfect features. The most vibrant thing in his face were his eyes. They were surrounded by long lashes that curled up slightly and were the same colour as his hair. The one eye on show was a dazzling green exactly the shade of a newly polished emerald. Not even stunning seemed to do him much justice and yet he didn't seem to realise or know that he was attracting attention from the girls on the other side of the room, his gaze was focused on the table. Automatically Duo grinned there was nothing he liked more than a challenge and there was no doubt that this boy was going to be a challenge. He grinned the violet eyes lighting up more than usual. Quatre smiled politely at him, feeling sorry for him

            "Of course you can sit down, I'll just move my jacket for you" he scooted over slightly and took the green jacket putting it on the back of his chair. The boy nodded and sat in the vacant chair though no expression filtered his face; Quatre had an idea that he was glad to not be on display anymore. Once he saw that Trowa was comfortably settled and had began eating he began chatting to him a slightly friendlier note tingeing his voice "I'm Quat..."

            "I'm Duo Maxwell" Duo said cutting right across Quatre and grinning, Quatre frowned at him "Oh and this is my friend Quatre Blah blah Blah Winner. We're new as well here"

            "Duo it Rabarba ok Rabarba it's not even that hard to say you know" Duo grinned in Quatre's anger flushed face and shrugged

            "I know it is" he replied soothingly "Just chill ok and keep your shirt on" Quatre sighed and began eating again, Duo turned back to him "And you are?"

            "I'm Trowa Barton" the boy replied in the same quiet voice he used before

            "Trowa eh" Dup repeated "Well it's nice to meet you" Trowa gave a slight smile at both of them, Duo grin gave way to a surprised look "WHAT are they doing cake again" he groaned "That's not fair, that dinner lady has in for me" he ginned the hopeful look back on his face "So Trowa tell me do you want that chocolate...." he stopped his eyes going to the door and his mouth falling open again "Oh fuck me please" he said, he turned back to Quatre "Look at that boy who just walked in" he pointed at the boy who was picking up a tray regardless of nearly every girl watching him with grins or dreamy looks as he did so. Quatre turned back to see an identical look on Duo's face as he checked the guys ass out.

            "He is kinda nice though I haven't seen much of him" the boy turned round and Quatre nodded "Yep I can definitely see why you had that reaction" he glanced at Trowa to see him concentrating on his food "Saying that, that Chinese boy over there, the one who waved at him, he's kinda cute looking" Duo dragged his gaze away from the boy and looked at the boy Quatre had nodded to and promptly did a mock swoon

            "Quatre if this is torture than chain me up because I never wanna leave." Quatre giggled and Duo looked back at the boy, who was talking to Milliardo Peacecraft and another man as well "Will you check him out and those smouldering looks, Jesus I'd give up some morals for him, no doubt about that. Where the hell do they hire these people from, straight off the cover of Stud monthly or something"

            "I guess you subscribe to that" Trowa said at this point, a small bit of humour tingeing his expressionless voice. Quatre and Duo glanced at him but his gaze was back on his food

            "You know it" Duo replied "I mean did you see that guy on the front cover in October Heeelllllooooo what I wouldn't do for him" he began to laugh as he thought about it then stopped, pointing frantically at his throat instead. Quatre rolled his eyes and started thumping the now red Duo hard on the back. Trowa hid his smile. At least it would stop him talking for a while but then again Trowa had the feeling he would talk through it anyway. It wasn't that he minded the conversation he actually liked it, it was different hearing what people his own sex and age had to say, it was just Duo seemed to always have a lot to say. He gave a sigh that went unnoticed and turned his gaze back to the boy he'd had been staring at ever since Duo had pointed him out. He couldn't understand it but there was something about the guy that had attracted his interest straight away. The guy was smallish compared to the others and built on a slighter scale but it was clear from the way he held himself and the confidence excluding out of him that he was strong. He was extremely handsome to the point of almost being beautiful. Trowa could see that he was Japanese, which tinged his skin with colour, but the skin was clear and soft looking. He had wild brown hair that fell in disarray over his well-poised head. Trowa couldn't see his eyes from the distance but if they were like the rest of him then they were going to be stunning looking

            "Hey Trowa are you ok?" Quatre suddenly said, Duo glanced up as well his choking fit was over "Trowa" Trowa ignored them a thoughtful probing look on his face. Quatre and Duo exchanged a surprised look, Duo gave a slight shrug while Quatre followed his gaze to see him staring at nothing "Trowa" he repeated for the third time. Duo picked up his hand and spoke into it as if it was a communicator

            "Captain I'll be needing some backup and fast we've lost Trowa. I repeat we've lost Trowa. It can't wait this is serious I'm going after him" Quatre leaned over Duo who was still talking and gently tapped Trowa on the shoulder, Trowa immediately looked up shrugging Quatre's hand off as he did so. He blinked once and sent him a questioning look

            "What is it?" he questioned, Quatre gave him a mild probing look

            "We were worried about you" he stated, Duo nodded seeing the tinge on confusion appear on Trowa's face for a split second

            "Yeah you zoned out worse than a Zombie and you were staring at the Vegetables" Trowa blinked and glance at the place to see he was right "Look if you want some Tro-Man I'd be more than willing to share with you" Trowa shook his head

            "Sorry about that" he said and Duo shrugged

            "It doesn't bother me as long as you're fine" a cheeky grin lit his face as he appraised the still thoughtful Trowa "And you most certainly are fine" Quatre giggled breaking Trowa out of his faze

            "What was that?" he asked but Duo shook his head a grin on his face

            "Nothing at all" he turned to Quatre "What we doing next Quatre?" Quatre began answering and Trowa took the opportunity to look to the place the boy sat. His green eyes met pair that were full of intensity and passion that for a minute he lost his breath. The eyes were as gorgeous as he thought they would be, they were big and sparkling in the light of the room, the colour was rare. A deep Prussian blue that could be stared into forever. For a second the two of them stared at each other before the boy dropped his gaze to see who he was having a staring match with, once he knew he causally glanced back up then away talking to the boy Quatre had pointed out earlier. Trowa looked away

            "Come on Tro-man we've got to go for a routine check-up. We might as well all stick together since we're all new and everything"

            "Yeah that's right" Quatre said and Trowa nodded his agreement, he picked up his tray and casually rubbed his stomach as if he was in discomfort and making sure he didn't look back at the boy they made there way out of there

There you go, you know what to do, review and let me know, but no flames they are not allowed.
