Kilik:Shinigami no Kamikaze does not own Gundam Wing or a sense of morality!
Hwoarang:I never knew anyone could be as servile as you, Kilik.
Kilik:*eyes turn red as he glares at Hwoarang* At least I still have -some- dignity left, bunny boy.
Hwoarang:*narrows eyes*
*both Kilik and Howarang run at eachother, and some wierd disembodied voice, like in nearly all fighting games, calls out out "Kilik vs Hwoarang.. Fight!" SnK just sighs* SnK:I need a muse, do you know how often these guys are like this? Anyway, since Kilik is getting killed over there since he foolishly went into the match without his weapon, I have to do his job for him... A friendly reminder to our readers, this fic contains a little cussing, shounen ai and angst..

Wufei heard a small commotion in the next room. His heart leaped up into his throat, and then he told himself he was being foolish, that there wasn't any real reason for him to worry. Shortly thereafter, the heard someone leave the room. Wufei squelshed his immediate desire to jump up and dash over to Duo's room to see how he was. Duo would probably want a little time to himself to think, ne?
Two hours later, Wufei decided he had to see Duo. Hopefully by now, Duo might open up to him a little. Besides, he couldn't resist the urge to check up on him any longer. Wufei was knocking on Duo's door before he really knew what he was doing.
Duo still hadn't gotten up from where Heero'd left him, he hadn't even moved much. The icepack had melted and nothing was left in his hand but a damp towel, the spot beneath it on the floor soaking wet. He guessed it was because he startled Heero. Stupid, Duo! Why were you so stupid? He actually looked at you, and you had to scare him....
Duo heard somone at his door. He didn't really want to get up to see who it was... Reluctantly, he dragged himself to his feet. He made his way over to the door, and swung it open to met the onyx eyes of his roommate.
Wufei's eyes widened when he saw the large brusie across Duo's left cheek, causing his heart to skip a beat. "Duo, what happened..?"
Duo looked confused for a moment.. then he realized where exactly Wufei was looking at him. He touched his face lightly and winced, immediatly regretting it. Wake up, Duo, when you get hit that hard, it's gonna leave a mark.... " 's nothin', 'Fei --" He was going to say more when Wufei grabbed the wrist of his hand that still hovered over the bruise, and pulled it out of the way so he could get a better look.
"It isn't nothing, who did this to you?" Wufei was a 100% sure it had been Yuy, and inordinate rage welled inside him, adding to his previous anger with the Japanese boy. Duo did not have that bruise this morning, and it was the correct size and shape of a fist. Duo wasn't going to get himself out of explaining (if that was his intention) by claiming he'd accidently done it. But, he would not accuse Yuy. He would wait to hear Duo answer.
Duo looked away, "It doesn't matter." Duo yanked his wrist away from Wufei's grip. "Just did somethin' I shouldn't've, kay?" He knew how pushy Wufei could be about some things, though, so he moved out of the doorway, since he didn't really doubt that Wufei would be inviting himself in now anyway, and he really didn't feel like agruing with his friend.
Wufei accepted the unspoken invitation in. He walked over to where the ice bucket was kept to check to see if it had any ice left. Duo rolled his eyes.. there was only so much ice could do, but Duo accepted the makeshift icepack Wufei made for him anyway, and placed it lightly against the bruise.
"Whatever you did, no one had the right to hurt you, Duo." Wufei crossed his arms. The only justifiable reason to hurt another person, in these times of peace, was to defend yourself or someone else, weaker than you. Knowing the kind of person Duo was, he seriously doubted Duo had tried to attack anyone. "Who did it, Duo?"
Duo sighed, Wufei would not let him get away with much where his health or saftey was concerned. Well, usually he wasn't too over zealous about it (of course, he usually didn't have to be), but now was one of those times he'd argue for 48 hours straight with him if need be. They could both be very stubborn, but right now Duo didn't have the patience to have a fight with Wufei about a piece of information Wufei was completely able to figure out for himself. Duo began to wonder why it was so damn important for him to hear the words coming from his lips, anyway. Wufei wasn't so stupid as not to have already made an educated guess at to who'd hit him. "It was Heero, but I startled him, and you know how protectin' himself like that is a reflex..."
"Hmph.." Wufei was barely able to contain his sudden fury. Amnesia or no, Heero Yuy had enough control over himself to keep himself from hitting Duo hard enough to leave a bruise like that. Duo was just making excuses for what that son of a bitch had done to him. Duo wanted to protect the person who had been one of his friends...his best friend, Wufei thought with that little touch of envy again. Such a dispicable creature was hardly worthy of Duo's attention, of his friendship... Duo had been trying so despriately to rebuild that friendship, and this was how Yuy responded?!? Inside Wufei, his pent up feelings for Duo mixed with his supressed rage began to create inside him an absolute loathing of Yuy.
Duo was instantly alarmed by the look in Wufei's eyes, "You okay, 'Fei-kun? It's not that bad... calm down... please? " Wufei didn't even seem to be paying attention to him at the moment. He was looking far beyond Duo, beyond the room...
"Wufei!" Wufei blinked as he heard Duo's worried voice shout out his name. He met Duo's eyes... it hurt to see his face marred by that ugly bruise... Yuy would pay for this. "Excuse me Duo, I have things to attend to." Wufei turned and headed for the door.
"Wait!! 'Fei!" Duo tried to stop him, but he was already out the door. Then he heard the a door slam outside in the hall... the sound came from the direction of Wufei's room, so presumably it was his door.
Duo quietly slipped out of his room and walked over to Wufei's. He knocked hesitantly, not wanting Wufei to blow up at him like he used to back during the war... There wasn't any sort of answer "Wufei...? Come on, I know you're in there.. open up, please...?" Still silence. Duo sighed and went back into his room.. or tired to, anyway, but the door had locked behind him and he'd forgotten the key. "Well, shit..."
---
Wufei thanked the mini-bar God as he reached for another one of the overpriced bottles of alcohol. Why was he drinking...? It was so unlike him... of course, it had been very unlike Duo to be drinking in his room, too. Then he remembered why he was drinking.
He was drinking because the man he loved was more devoted to some inconsiderate bastard than to him, even though -he'd- lived with Duo, while the other guy had completely forgotten Duo had existed. The guy who had also been tearing Duo apart from the inside, then had the audacity to harm him. That was it.
Sure, Duo had come to check up on him (and he'd been so rude as to not even speak to his secret love...), but he was sure it was only to make sure he didn't do something to hurt his thrice damned precious Heero.
Wufei stared down at his sacred picture of Duo, then put it away as he twisted the cap off the bottle of alcohol he'd retrieved. He didn't want to drink in front of the picture, something about that just seemed wrong to him.
Then Wufei decided that he wasn't getting plastered fast enough, and that buying a whole bottle of scotch would be a hellvalot cheaper than drinking a bunch of mini ones, so he got his coat, wallet, and left his room in search of liquor.
Wufei was so out of it, he did not notice his Du-chan working on picking the lock to his door, annoyed since he didn't even have to proper tools to break into his room (because the proper tools were in his room with the key, where they did him no good). Duo looked up as Wufei stromed away, and decided to follow... he'd become worried about his Chinese roommate... besides, Wufei had the spare key to his room!
---
Heero felt like shit. No matter how much that little voice told him to stay way from Duo, he had to go find him. He wasn't quite sure what he planned on Duo once he found him, though... he just felt like someone kicked him repeately in the chest, and that maybe seeing Duo would help. Maybe that way the memory of him punching Duo while the boy's guard was completely down would stop repeating itself in him mind, acting like salt to his invisible wounds.
He walked out into the hallway, and down to Duo's door. He noticed a deformed paperclip on the ground, but didn't give it much thought as he knocked on the door... there was no reply. "Duo?" Still nothing. Heero had heard a racket coming from the hall earlier. he'd probably left during that time... so, now the question was, where to find Duo?
Well, he decided he'd just check around. Even though he had a very slim chance of actually finding Duo by randomly walking around (because, he did not remember what he was like, so could not make any guesses based on anything substantial..), it would at least pass the time until Duo returned to his room.

SnK:Yes, I'm sure that chapter was boring, especially for you 1x2 2x1 ppl, since there was absoluately no Duo/Heero interaction. But you know, I have to set up for the next chapter... which might also be out today... (a chapter that will possibly ruin the entire fic and make you all hate me, but such is life...)
Hwoarang:*stops beating the living hell out of Kilik for the momemnt* Remember the last time you said that?
SnK:I actually have half the next chapter done right now, so it may actually happen. Anyway, I'm gettin' sick of you, boy, beating up my assistant, and doubting me. *snaps her fingers and Hwoarang turns back into the pink bunny, Kilik starts to laugh*
oh yes, and I, personally, believe I have finally come to my decision on the relationships for this fic ('bout time, too) by using the almighty coin flip... but I guess you all don't get to know until later. Review, people, 'cause I may decide to hold the next chapter 'til I get some reviews for this one! (and, btw, sorry about the lameness of this chapter... but that doesn't mean I don't want you to review)
