Unexpected Places
Chapter Three

~*Quatre*~
I was worried about my friend so I decided to leave as soon as possible. I walked out of my office and handed the paper work I had been working on earlier to my secretary.
"Winner-sama, where are you going?" She asked with a confused look on her face as she took the folders that I had handed her.
"I must leave immediately. There has been an emergency and I am needed at my friend's," I turned and walked out the door and around the corner of the building where I had parked my car. I took out my keys and unlocked the door as my silver convertible came into view. I opened the door and climbed in. I put the key in the ignition and started up the car.
I drove up the drive to my house. I parked the car and got out. One of the servants came up and opened the door for me. I went up the stairs and into my room where I began to throw some clothes into a suitcase.
When I had finished packing I went downstairs and was about to walk outside when I heard a voice. "Winner-san, here's your coat. It is raining out." I reached out and took the coat from him.
"Arigatou," I said as I pulled the coat tight around me.
I threw the suitcase in the back of the car and climbed inside. I began the two-hour drive to Duo's house.
~*Wufei*~
The sound of birds singing in the trees awoke me. I stood up and stretched, trying to get all the kinks out of my back. I looked down at my watch and yawned. I had taken a three-hour nap. I cursed as I picked up my bag and began to walk again.
It wasn't long before I reached the main road. I looked around trying to figure out which way to go. I decided to try my luck and I turned right.
I shuffled along down the road, thinking about Duo. I tried to picture him as he used to be when I had first fallen for the baka, but all I could recall was the dull look in his eyes when he had called me. Boy, am I glad I decided to keep that phone. I thought as I watched a car make its way towards me. It didn't take long for me to realize that it was a pink limo. Relena. I waved my arms and I hoped that I could get her attention. To my surprise the car pulled over and the window rolled down.
"Hello Wufei. On your way to Duo's I presume." She said looking up at me through dark sunglasses. I nodded my head in answer to her question.
She opened the door, "Would you like a ride?" She asked as she moved over to make room for me.
"Arigatou Relena-san," I said as I climbed into the vehicle.
~*Quatre*~
I drove up the drive to Duo's cottage. I noticed a jeep was parked in front of the house as I parked next to it. I wonder whose it is. I said to myself as I opened the door and got out of the car.
"Oi, Quatre!" I heard a voice from behind me and turned around.
"Hi Hilde," I said as I noticed who it was. She jumped out of the passenger seat and came over to me. She gave me a big hug.
"Who did you come up with?" I asked as I hugged her back and smile at her.
"Trowa, silly," She punched me playfully in the arm as Trowa came up behind her.
"Hi Lit...er...Quatre," He said as he placed his hand on Hilde's shoulder. I blushed at the slip of his tongue.
"Hello Trowa," I said as I reached into the back seat and pulled out my suitcase. I shut the door and went to walk away but my coat was caught and I tripped and fell. A pair of hands caught me before I hit the ground. They got me upright again. It was Trowa.
"Arigatou Trowa," I said as I opened the door and took my coat out and walked up to the door of the cottage.
"Always the clumsy one," Trowa said as he ruffled my hair as I went past. He followed me up to the door. I reached up and rang the bell. Duo answered the door and his face broke into a small smile as he saw us. He opened the door and let us in. Hilde rushed up and enveloped him in a huge hug.
~*Relena*~
I moved over to make space for Wufei to sit down.
"Arigatou Relena-san," He said as he got in and sat down next to me. I laughed as he threw his bag on the seat across from him.
"What's so funny onna?" He asked as he looked at me with his black almond shaped eyes.
"Did you notice that you were walking in the wrong direction?" I asked as I studied his face.
He looked around, "So I was," He settled into the seat and relaxed. A silence settled between us, but it wasn't uncomfortable like it used to be between us. The silence was calming and gave me time to think.
'Heero' The name was on my lips, but it didn't feel right to say it anymore. I have to come to terms with the fact that he was in love with Duo. I scolded myself as I laid my head against the window and watched the scenery go past. A few moments went by before I noticed that Wufei had fallen asleep and he was snoring softly. I chuckled and went back to looking out the window of the car.
~*Duo*~
I hugged Hilde and moved aside so that the others could get in. Quatre walked around the living and disappeared into the kitchen. Hilde linked her arm through Trowa's and looked up at me. It took me a moment before I realized that they wanted a tour of the house. I shrugged my shoulders and motioned to the living room.
"Here's the living room, that over there is the kitchen, and back there is the bedroom and the bathroom," I pointed to each room in turn.
"There's only one bedroom?" Trowa asked.
I scratched my head, "Yeah," Then it hit me, "Where is everyone going to sleep?" I asked.
"We were hoping you knew the answer," Trowa said as Hilde rested her head on his shoulder. I laughed nervously. Me and Hilde sat down on the couch and started talking about sleeping arrangements while Trowa walked off in the direction Quatre went.
