Duo was having a tough day. He had woken up to a bunch of nurses surrounding Heero, doing their daily check up on Heero, but of course that's not what Duo had thought at first. He had gotten quite a scare from the nurses since he had thought the worst. After the nurses, he was questioned by the cops about the bullet wounds in Heero. He couldn't let them know that they were Gundam pilots so he had to tell the same old story again. He had told the cops that they had came across a gang doing their business and tried to escape. The cops, being as dumb as they are, believed this story. They had tried to further question Duo but he only said that he was so scared and it had happened all so fast. Another lie, well, sort of. He was scared and it did happen too fast. If had been any slower he could have prevented the building from tumbling down on Heero. But it wasn't and there was no needed to think about 'what if'. All that mattered was that Heero was alive and well. Duo was ready to go and see Heero again when that blonde flirt that had been following him around.
"Duo, can I ask you something personal?"
"What?" sighed Duo.
"What does that guy in there mean to you?"
"Everything, why do you ask?" The doctor ignored Duo's question and asked another of his own.
"Is he your boyfriend?"
"Where are you getting with this?"
"Well, I figured that he was so I'm going to let you stay in the hospital as long as you wish. Visiting hours no longer mean anything to you. Of course, you will have to help us take care of Heero. You'll have to feed him, wheel him around, give him his medicine, etc. Is that okay with you?" Duo's day seemed to be getting better by the minute!
"Yes, of course! Thank you so much!"
"Well, once that guy is healed, I hope you show him just how lucky his is to have you. If he wasn't your boyfriend, I be trying my best to make you mine, almost anyone would." Duo blushed at the comment.
"That explains you being so nice." The tall man smiled at the braided boy.
"Well, I better be off. And so should you. I believe that you have a date with your unconscious boyfriend." The doctor walked off down the hallway to his next patient and to take care of more important matters than flirting with a patient. Duo just marched himself into Heero's room and sat himself down beside the patient's bed. Duo carefully looked Heero over, seeking for any signs of trouble and any improvements since he last saw him.
"Great! You're finally getting back some color in your face! That's a relief! Now you don't look dead." Duo had started his daily babble to the boy on the bed. "You wouldn't believe how nice that doctor is! He said I could stay here as long as you are so I can help take care of you! That means I won't have to leave you as much." Duo began to twirl locks of Heero's messy chocolate colored hair around his fingers in a playful way. "I think I'll sing to you, feed you, talk to you, play with your hair, clean you, give you your daily medicines, and hourly for that matter, until you get better. I'll do that for you each day!" Duo lowered his head down to Heero and gently kissed Heero's forehead. He then rested his head on Heero's steadily rising and falling chest. He began to hum a tune and then sing it aloud.
"When you feel all alone…And the world has turned it's back on you…Give me a moment please…to tame your wild, wild heart." Duo reached down and took Heero's hand in his. "I know you feel like the walls are closing in on you…It's hard to find relieve and people can be so cold…When darkness is upon your door and you feel like you can't take anymore…"
Duo took in a deep breath and began to softly sing to chorus of the song. "Let me be the one you call. If you jump I'll break your fall. Lift you up and fly away with you into the night. If you need to fall apart, I can mend a broken heart. If you need to crash then crash and burn, you're not alone." Duo had begun to peacefully fall into a slight slumber but was woke up by the feeling of Heero's hand starting to clutch his own his a weak force.
"Heero? You awake?" Duo could have sworn that the doctors said that Heero would be out cold for a few more hours. But then again, Heero was their average patient and has been known to do some remarkably amazing things before. Heero began to whisper something but Duo couldn't make it out. Heero's voice was too low and raspy. It didn't help much that his voice was normal deep and now it was worst.
"I'm sorry Heero but I can't understand you. You should wait awhile before trying to talk. You just got out of surgery about twelve hours ago. The medicines they just on you should make it hard for you to speak for a while." Heero was obviously annoyed at the thought and had to tell Duo what he was trying to say. Since he couldn't say it, he decided to show it. Heero slowly reached up and tugged at Duo shirt. Duo realized Heero wanted to show him something and let Heero's movements guide him. Heero pulled Duo closer and closer to his face and once he had Duo right above him, Heero barely managed to lift his head and kiss Duo on his luscious full lips. Duo was no at all surprised by the notion and he gladly welcomed it. He was so happy to finally know for sure that Heero returned his feelings of love and affection. Duo knew that it was far to early for deep and lusty kisses so he slowly pulled away, not wanting to make Heero thing that he didn't want him.
"Not yet love. You have to get better. I don't want to do anything before you're completely healed or close to it. Not even deep kisses, just a few light ones now and then." Duo smiled down at the boy underneath him. Duo could still tell that Heero was trying to tell my something so he leaned down so that his ear was almost touching Heero's upper lip.
"Thank…you…love."
"You're very welcome. I'm just glad that you pulled through." Heero smiled at the young man at his side and fell back into a deep slumber. Duo rolled over so he was lying beside Heero on the soft bed and brushed a few pieces of brown hair out of Heero's relaxed face.
"I stay by your side, forever and always. Even when you're better, I'll be there for you."
