/\rrows of the /\/\oon 2

Duo dropped the remote controller and stared open-mouthed at the TV. Bill the weatherman had gone on to talk about the weather while everyone in the large living room gaped at each other.

Sapphire was the first to speak.

"Not *the* Relena Peacecraft. Not the one that tried to *kill* you last year, right?" She asked hopefully, her question directed at Arrow.

"The one and only, I'm afraid." Arrow replied shaking her head.

"But, how could she have gotten out?" Quatre asked from across the room.

"Who knows." Wufei said with a shrug. "How do the rest of them escape? No one really knows for sure except for the escapers. Well I say we all go to bed, there isn't really anything we can do and she can't do anything soon. Relinsville is way across the country."

Sapphire watched as Wufei, Quatre, Trowa, and Heero headed to their rooms; while Arrow followed after Heero. Duo was still on the floor staring at the TV.

"Do you really like watching the weather that much?" She asked ginning, as she trailed across the room and sat next to him.

"Hn? Oh, sorry I was...just thinking." Duo stammered blushing red with embarrassment.

"That's a first." She giggled and earned herself a death glare from Duo.

"Sorry" she muttered

"Yeah, whatever." He murmured picking up the fallen remote and turning off the television.

When the sound of the TV died suddenly, they could hear angry shout coming from over head. Suddenly a door slammed and there was loud footsteps and a couple seconds later another door slam.

"What the...?"

"Heero and Arrow." Duo answered her quickly. "They've been having 'little' arguments lately."

"Yeah real little." Sapphire mumbled.

"Eh...Do you want me to walk you up to your room or something?" He asked scratching his head and blushing again.

"Nah, I think I'm going to go out to the garden for a little while."

"Oh...would you mind if I joined you?"

"Not at all." She said with a smile.

--------------------------------------------------------------

Sapphire and Duo sat on the bench below the large oak tree talking about nothing in particular.

"They're beautiful aren't it?" Sapphire said suddenly.

"What?" Duo asked confused.

"The stars." She answered looking up at the sky.

"Yeah, sure." He said looking at her instead of the stars.

Sapphire met his gaze and smiled.

Duo moved his face in close and he kissed her lightly on the lips. It wad nice. She leaned against him, and they kissed again, this time deeply. Warmth spread through her, from her lips deep into her body.

When they parted, Duo was blushing more then ever. He got up and walked back to the mansion, leaving Sapphire to stare bewilderedly after him.

"Duo?" She called, but he kept walking.
