Notes: Wow, I'm speechless!!! I've gotten a ton of reviews in less than 24 hours, I just had to write the next part right away!! Thanks so much to everyone who reviewed, I love you all!! Nobody's flamed me!! I knew I was a good writer, but I didn't think I was THAT good!! Once again, thank you SO much!!!! Also, Lizzy B asked about Wufei, and I thought that maybe I should try to include him in this fic...just PLEASE don't be mad at me if he's not included, k? Alright then, on with the fic!!
Another note: Okay, one more note...I'm sorry this took so long to get out!!!! I've had writer's block...and I still do, so this part sort of REEEALLY sucks. Well, I dunno. Just tell me if you like it and if you want more...while I go work on chapter 3!! ::flinches:: I swear, chapter three will be a lot better than this part...and I'm sorry I had writer's block, but I'm sure most of you know what it's like. Okay, now on with the fic....

Duo slumped in his chair across from Heero, watching him restfully drinking his coffee. None of them had uttered a word. Finally, Duo decided to break the silence, but as he was about to, Wufei walked in.
"Good thing you missed Relena coming here," Duo muttered, "It was painfully terrible."
Wufei blinked. "Re...Relena was in here?"
Nodding, Duo stood up to make himself a cup of coffee. Just watching Heero drinking his coffee was torture.
"Alright then, I am cleaning this place up immediately!" Wufei announced as he ran over to the closet to grab the vaccuum cleaner, wood polish, broom, and dustpan. Duo had to stifle a laugh with his fist.
Almost immediately, however, he snapped back into reality and scowled as the boiled water overflowing out of his mug burned his other hand. Carefully placing the porcelain down, he ran his left hand under cold, cold water, when Heero walked in the kitchen. Heero quickly placed his mug in the side of the sink opposite of Duo's hand and began to walk away.
"Where're you going?" Duo asked, the water still running down his hand.
Heero snorted, "My room. Why?"
"I was just wondering...seems to me you're always disappearing these days...you don't even talk anymore."
"I talk. Trust me." And with that, Heero hopped up the stairs and disappeared out of sight.
"DAMNIT!!!" Duo cursed at himself yet again, stopping the faucet and pouring the water out of his mug, replacing it in the cupboard. "Everytime...every single time I want to, I just CAN'T admit it to him?"
"Admit what?" He heard a voice behind him and quickly spun around. Wufei stood in front of him, broom and dustpan in hand.
A blush creeping onto his face, Duo replied, "Err...nothing!" Then, he slowly crept up to his room.
***
"Trowa?"
"Hn?"
"I love you."
Quatre and Trowa lay next to eachother in the sand, below the beautiful midnight stars. The lovebirds had decided to make a quick escape, and they knew that the beach would be a perfect place. So there they were, their bodies entwined within another, their bare bodies warm against eachother, their scents filling the air around them, their souls one. What a lovely way to spend a night off. Below the stars, which they both thought were the most beautiful thing. The view was more fantastic from Earth than it was from space itself. And with the water lapping at their feet, and the cold, soft, smooth sand against their bodies, nothing could possibly be better.
"Do you think it was a bad idea to leave Duo and Heero alone without telling them?"
Trowa shook his head in response. "They need time alone. They need to figure this out. I just have this feeling, this instinct, that Duo and Heero were meant to be. And I'll kill myself if they don't get together soon."
Quatre poked him playfully. "Don't say that, Trowa. How do you think I'd feel if you killed yourself?"
"You do know I was exaggerating, don't you?"
Quatre sighed. "Oh, I know. I'm just kidding you know that. Anyway, what about Wufei? Wouldn't he need to be gone too if they were to spend time alone?"
"I'm sure Wufei won't be a nuisance at all. In fact, he'll probably stay in his room all night."
***
"And just what makes you so sure!?" Wufei asked sternly, punching Heero's bed.
Letting a sigh escape him, Heero replied, "What makes YOu so sure? We all know that Duo has been 'in love' with many girls lately, and he hasn't 'loved' any males yet. He has to be straight. Anyhow, there are already three people in our crew that are gay, including myself, so there's probably a low chance Duo is too."
"Make that four..." Wufei uttered softly.
Raising his eyebrows for a moment, Heero looked over at Wufei. "Well then, that lowers the chances. Would it not be ironic if all five of us were gay?"
"Maybe Duo's bi!! Anyway, if Duo HAS had crushes on guys, why would he tell US?"
Heero shrugged. "Because there's nothing wrong about it, and everybody knows about Trowa and Quatre already. Not like it would disturb us even more."
"I'm taking it you don't know Duo very well..."
Heero's eyes flashed at Wufei. "And you're saying you know him more than I do?"
Crossing his arms in front of his chest, Wufei smirked, "Certainly. And one thing I know is that, as much of a talker as he is, he really DOES have secrets."
"Keep going..."
"And, I'm certain you haven't noticed, but Duo has been paying special attention to you. It seems that he puts you before everyone else in his crew. And now, he seems nervous around you. Of course, I don't blame you for not knowing all of this, being the nonobservant person you are."
Heero growled.
"Can't you see it's one hundred percent obvious that Duo's got it for you!?"
Shaking his head, Heero dug his fist into his bed.
"Well then...I'll go talk to him now, and I'll - "
Heero interrupted, pulling Wufei up by the scruff of the neck. "Tell him anything and I'll kill you."
Wufei grinned. "Don't worry, he won't know a thing. I'm leaving all this matchmaking stuff to Trowa and Quatre." And with that, he walked out of the room.
***
"Why can't I just TELL him!?" Duo pounded his pillow with his fists, "All I have to do is go up to him and say 'I love you' and everything will be done and over with!! He'll either reject me and my heart will break and I'll cry for weeks...or he'll tell me he loves me back..."
Wufei shook his head sadly, still concealed in the dark, hidden from Duo's gaze. You really don't know what you're missing out on by not telling him, he thought. You really don't know that you're breaking his heart. Truth was, as much as Wufei wanted the two to be together, he just COULDN'T matchmake. It wasn't his thing. He could always tell Trowa and QUatre what he knew. Then, they would do the rest.
"Tell him what?" Wufei finally revealed himself, walking over to the cute and sad pilot, sitting next to him in his bed. "Or shall I say, tell who what?"
Blinking and blushing, Duo jumped back in surprise. "H-hey...when did you get here!?"
Wufei shook his head, amused at the sight. "I was just wondering what's wrong. THat's all."
"Well that's a new one," Duo sneered, turning his head away from Wufei, "And I thought you'd care more about me than an ant."
"You make me laugh sometimes," Wufei smiled, as Duo turned back to him, "You know we all care about you. You're just more annoying than hell."
A smile slightly growing on his face, Duo relaxed a little. "So, what was it you wanted to know?"
"What you won't stop worrying about."
"Oh dear...ask Trowa and Quatre about that. They know. You don't need to ask me."
Nodding his head, Wufei replied, "I would do that, but you know that Quatre and Trowa keep secrets. And they're good at it."
"Well, why should I tell you then?"
"Maybe because I can help you, and you can trust me, and I should know what's going on anyway."
DUo couldn't help but laugh, and he threw his head back, slapping his stomach uncontrollably.
"You like Heero, don't you." Duo's laugh immediately came to a halt, and he jumped up at Wufei, wide-eyed, his hands hooked around Fei's neck.
"Tell him and I will kill yoU!!! HOW DID YOU KNOW!?" Duo asked desparately, hoping that Heero didn't know.
"He doesn't know, don't worry, but...you should tell him." And with that, Wufei walked out, not even bothering to explain what he had just said to the confused and overly-curious Duo.
