A Slip of a Knife: Part 5: The End
by Chibi Lurrel
~*~Wufei's POV~*~
So, Maxwell has a crush on Heero. I guess I knew it all along. He's fairly obvious about it. Always touching Heero, and trying to get him to talk with him and things. I'm surprised I haven't really noticed it before. Maybe I had, but I didn't want to think about it. But I guess if I didn't want to think about it, then Heero was obviously blatently ignoring it. I feel for poor Duo. Duo? Since when did I call him Duo?
I don't understand how Heero can so thoughtlessly hurt Duo's feelings. And on top of that, how could he choose Relena!? I doubt they'll last long. She'll never understand his needs. Surely Duo could far better. I'm sure Duo could help him loosen up, with his bubbly and bright personality. And he's cuter than her, too.
Damn.
I think I like the idiot.
~*~Duo's POV~*~
Huh. Wufei. I never knew he was such a sensitive guy. Yah I did. Hes always been there when I need to talk. *Sigh* Man, mabye he's what I should be looking for in a guy. He;s got a sense of humor, and honor, can actually string two word together that aren't 'Hn.' or 'Shut up.' And he's pretty cute.
Damn.
I think I'm falling for him.
***
Heero stumbled in around midnight that night. Wufei and I were sitting on the couch, watching 'The Simpsons.' (It'll never, ever die! WAHAHAHA!). He looked pretty bad, too. Well, actually not really different from the norm, except he was wearing slacks and a white dress shirt, and that they were both covered with strawberry milkshake.
"What happened?" I asked, making room on the couch for him to colapse.
He almost fell onto the couch. "Well, the movie was great. And so was dinner. Then, at the ice cream shop for dessert, we started discussing our different political views. I think I pissed her off."
"Heero?"
"Yah?"
"Never, ever discuss politics on a first date."
Wufei looked over at me, and grinned. I started laughing. I couldn't help myself. And then, he did too!
Heero shook his head and got up. "Whatever. I'm gonna get cleaned up."
He left.
~*~Wufei's POV~*~
Heero left Duo and I laughing our heads off, muttering something about the milk shake staining his shirt. That just sent us back into hysterics, obviously. I don't know why this was so funny. Maybe it was just tension releasing itself. I don't know. But I liked the sensation. It had been a while since I had simply *laughed.* And the fact that I shared it with Duo... Well, it made it more enjoyable.
After we had settled down, Duo looked down at his hands. His wrists, actually. I saw him run his thumbs over the fabric, where I knew there were scars that would never fade.
~*~Duo POV~*~
I had to tell him about what I had been thinking. I liked him, dammit! I wanted him to like me, too. Why did these things have to be so derned hard!
"Wufei, man, I've been thinking, ya know, and I gotta..."
He put a slender finger over my lips. I trembled at his touch. I stared up at him. What was he getting at???
~*~*~*~*~
Arg. I had to tell him first. I had to let him know he was loved. First. It would mean more to him like that.
"No, I've got something to tell *you.* Duo...IthinkIlikeyou.Willyou..."
I swallowed. Kuso. Now I had to follow through. This'll teach me to get caught up in the moment.
"Gooutwithme?" Duo grinned and giggled. "Sooo, you like being the dominant one in the relationship?"
I was shocked. "WHAT?" He giggled again. Man, he was cute.
"Nothing. Of course I will!"
Duo threw himself onto me and kissed me.....
THE NEXT MORNING-
~*~Quatre POV~*~
The first rays of the morning filtering through my window woke me up. I blinked the sleep out of my eyes, disorianted at first and not sure where I was. But then I noticed Trowa's arms around me. Strong arms. I snuggled up against the sleeping firgure of Trowa. His muscular form made me feel safe. Leaning my head up against his chest, I drifted gently off to sleep, lulled by Trowa's heartbeat.
~*~Trowa POV~*~
The morning light woke me. I felt Quatre stirring against me. He didn't realize I was awake. I decided not to disturb his views. He wrapped his arms around me. They were gentle but strong. I liked the feel of his arms around me. Safe and warm. I never wanted this calm, beautiful, and pure peace to end. The clear morning light danced around our room. I pulled Quatre closer to me, and soon was asleep again....
~SCREEN FADES TO BLACK~
And the night went on like that. And in the morning, Trowa was unusually cheerful. As was Wufei. You couldn't tell with Duo or Quatre, since Quatre is a morning person and is un-godly cheerful anyway. Duo feel asleep in his coffee. And thus ends.......

Yah, I know, that part kinda sucked and I should revise it but school started. Damn. I'm pissed because I have the locker from Hell. Now, you think *YOU* might have had the locker from Hell. But lemme tell you about *my* locker. I was late for like every class because of it and only got it open without teacher help once. Gah. And almost missed the bus. yah.
