(Where Duo and Hotaru are staying)

Hotaru sighed as she entered their room. Looking around she suddenly stopped short. "Duo?"

"Yes?"

"There's only one bed." Hotaru laughed nervously. Duo glanced up and saw the queen sized bed, then at Hotaru. 'Ah…. Shit! I have to spend like three days in the same bed as my worst enemy. Wait she's not the enemy, but…. She's a girl! Wait when have I ever been nervous around girls. Never! But she's different. And when we kissed… Damn! Must stop think like that. I think I'm going insane.' Duo shuddered.

"Duo?" Hotaru turned to him and caught him staring at her. More precisely, her lips. "Duo?"

"Hai." He whispered.

"Duo, do you want to kiss me?" Duo's eyes went wide and flew to her's. They held extreme seriousness.

"Yes, I do."

"Then kiss me." She said.

Duo nodded dumbly and walked slowly over to her. Leaning down he met her waiting lips. Soft silvery heat flowed through them both. It wasn't a kiss of desire, but one that only lovers share.



(Wufei and Raye.)

"Onna!" Wufei called coming out into the living room that divided their rooms.

"What!" She said back coming out in only a bra and a pair of shorts. Wufei stopped dead in his tracks. 'By Nataku.' His mind and senses were reeling. "Is there something you want, besides to stare at my chest?"

"Nani?" He said. She'd caught him off guard, and that wasn't good. "Oh. Baka onna, I want you to get your 'equipment' out so we can go over things before tomorrow. When our part of the plan starts."

"Fine. I'll go get it." She turned and went into her room. She leaned against the closed door. For some reason she could stop the feeling that had crept up into her stomach and caused butterflies to flap about. "Did he have to look at me like that?"

She pulled at shirt on and hurried to get everything out. When she finished she pulled everything into her arms and headed to the door, but stopped. "Am I falling? No not for him! I can't. But I am… Then, I'll just have to make him fall for me too." She smiled wickedly. "I'm going to seduce him." She laughed silently.



(Trowa and Quatra)



"Trowa, do you think everything's going alright for the others?"

"They're fine."

"I know." Quatra sighed and looked out the window of the room. "I'm just being paranoid. But my instincts tells me that something's going to happen."

"Everything will be aright." Trowa said, but he couldn't help the feeling of foreboding.



(Relena, Serena, and Heero)



"Night." Relena said coming out into the living room.

"But it's only eight." Serena said shocked.

"I know, but I always go to bed early."

"Okay, suit yourself. Night." Serena said. She smiled up at Relena. "I'll see you in the morning."

"Hm." Heero said. "Night."

Relena grinned looking at the two. 'I hope they get together.' She sent a silent pray for them. 'Heero needs someone.' Relena got into her bed and pulled the covers up over her head. "Please. I can feel Heero becoming more distant. He needs her. And she needs him, too."

Serena was about to open the door when she'd heard what Relena had just said. A small smile appeared on her face. 'Sorry Relena, but I don't need anyone but my sisters.' She thought. 'And as soon as this is over, I'm outta here. We'll work for ourselves and never let anyone catch us.'

She turned to see Heero furiously typing on his laptop. 'I don't even think we should help them with this mission, but… How can I get to the other girls?'

"Nani?" Heero said without looking up.

"I was just thinking." Serena stated. She smiled at herself. 'I need to talk to the others.'

"I'm going to bed. We need to be up early." Heero stated. He got up and headed to his room.

"Heero." Serena called. He stopped and turned to look at her. Walking up to him she kissed him passionately. "I'm sorry." She whisper pulling her gun from behind her and hit him with the back end.

He fell to the floor silently. "I'm sorry but I can't stay." She hurried and grabbed her bag then went to the window in his room and swung out onto the sill. Pulling her grappling hook she shot it at the building across the street. "Goodbye. I know you and your friends can handle this without us." She smiled and jumped.
