Dreams- Part IV
By J. Starfire
Duo
sat fingering the end of his chestnut braid and staring into space. He had been here at Quatre's house for about
two weeks now and his birthday was tomorrow. Each day he would bathe in the relaxation and luxury Quatre's rich
estate provided for him. He could never
relax, however. Heero constantly took
his mind and he was eager to get out of the house to continue his mission. This feeling festered each day, and he even
considered explaining his urgency to Quatre and leaving. His friend wanted him to stay, however, and
stay he would.
"Only
one more day," Duo thought, " After tomorrow I can continue my search for
Heero." He sighed and turned his
head to stare out the window. Quatre's
garden was beautiful at night. He stood
up and walked over to the sliding door and into the garden. He made his way through to an intricately
carved, marble bench and sat down. He
looked up into the stars and sighed.
"Oh,
Heero. If only you could hear me and
feel the anguish inside of me. I have
come to the point where I cannot live without you, Heero. Your cobalt eyes, your musty scent, your
perfection. If only you could hear
me... Heero." Duo stretched out and lay
down on the bench and stared up into the stars. "Even if I never find you here in this life... I take comfort in
knowing that I will find you up in heaven one day." Duo sighed and closed his eyes. Soon he had fallen asleep dreaming of a certain someone.
"Who's
shaking me... stop it," Duo mumbled drowsily.
"Hey,
wake up Duo... I've been looking all over for you." Quatre replied.
"Huh? What? Oh, it's you Quatre. Just love
your garden, especially at night."
"Thanks...
well, it's your birthday so c'mon, get up."
"Alright,
alright. I'm getting up." Duo roused himself and rubbed his eyes. He followed Quatre to the kitchen.
After eating a delicious (as
usual) breakfast Quatre suggested, "You better go upstairs and fix up your
hair. You might scare the servants."
"Oh, hehe." Duo's hair was sticking out of his braid in
chaotic spikes and it looked a lot like a chestnut-colored, spiked mace. Duo headed upstairs to his room. He undressed and took a long, luxurious
shower then changed into a clean set of his regular black outfit. Quatre had had his personal tailor make
extra outfits for him considering that his suitcase had disappeared. After brushing out his long, chestnut
strands, he separated them into three parts and braided them into a tight rope
and secured the end. He trotted
downstairs and made his way to the kitchen expecting to find Quatre in the
kitchen waiting for him. He wasn't
there. It was curiously silent in the
house and he searched for someone, anyone. There weren't even any servants around. Then when he passed by the garden door he paused. A movement had caught the corner of his
eye. He stared out the window and
watched. A bush rustled. There it was again! He carefully slid through the door and made
his way towards the bush. He looked
behind it. Nobody was there. He followed the pathway and turned the
corner.
"SURPRISE!!! Happy Birthday!!!" Duo jumped back in surprise. Everyone was there Wufei, Trowa, Sally, Noin, Zechs, no Heero. His heart fell at this, but he was happy
that the rest of them were all there. Oh, and there was Quatre. He
walked over to him.
"You little rascal you. You got them all here for me." He greeted each of them. There were some surprises, too. Wufei and Sally were engaged and were to be
married in July. Also, Noin was
pregnant! Zechs blushed visibly.
They had a great time and
the buffet Quatre's personal chef had cooked for them was delicious. Then came the time for the presents or
rather the present.
"Time for the real
surprise!" Quatre announced, "C'mon." Quatre took hold of Duo's arm and dragged him with him. The rest of them followed. They stopped suddenly and Quatre told Duo to
close his eyes. He did so and Quatre
led him on.
When they stopped again
Quatre told him, "Stay put. I'll be
back in a moment." Quatre let go of his
arm and Duo heard some muffled noises. Quatre returned.
"You can open your eyes
now." They snapped open and before him
was the most beautiful thing he had ever seen! It was sleek, perfect. It was
the most perfect car he had ever laid eyes on! The cobalt blue paint, the leather insides. It was perfect!
"Thank you so much!!! This is perfect! I love you guys. I could
never thank you enough." Duo had tears in
his eyes. Quatre had known he was a
car-lover and also knew he had been eyeing this model for years but could never
afford it.
"Why don't you take it for a
test drive?" Quatre suggested.
"Great! I'll be right back," Duo replied. He opened the door and climbed inside and
sighed with pleasure. He carefully
picked up the key and turned on the engine. It hummed pleasantly. He drove
it out through the gate careful not to scratch it against the wall. He drove off down the street humming
happily.
He sighed, "With this car, I
can find Heero with ease. Just sitting
in this beauty gives me a boost of confidence. Boy... Quatre really knew what I wanted." He slowed down and stopped at a red light. A hand from behind slowly made its way
towards Duo's braid. It suddenly
grabbed hold of it and yanked backwards.
"YOW! Who did that!" The hand jerked away and a soft chuckling could be heard from the
back. Duo swung around and looked
behind him to identify the intruder.
"You get out of my c-" Duo's
mouth fell open in shock. "my c- my c-
my c-" he stammered.
"Pull
over, and get out of the car." Duo
struggled to take his eyes off of the intruder and did so quite slowly. Duo got out of the car and stood there still
in shock. The other person climbed out
also and stood before him.
"H-H-Heero...
is it really you?" Duo stammered, "but... it can't be..." There was an awkward
silence. He finally spoke.
"Yes,
it's me... and... I'm never leaving you again." Heero's hand reached up and rested on Duo's cheek. "You know why? Because... I've come to realize that... I love you," he
whispered.
Duo's
eyes filled with tears. "I love you,
too," he whispered. His hand slowly
slipped down from his cheek and caressingly moved down his neck. Duo's trembling hand moved to Heero's
neck. As it settled on his warm skin it
ceased its shaking and a overwhelming calm came over him. Heero drew Duo closer and hugged his
shoulders. They looked into each
other's eyes: violet into cobalt, cobalt into violet and their eyes
softened. Inches away from each other
they moved together closer and closer. Then Heero's soft lips rested onto Duo's. Their bodies pressed together as they engaged in a fierce
kiss. Duo hugged Heero's body close to
him. In that moment Duo poured out
everything he had: his heart, his life, his very existence. In that moment they had something so
powerful, so great that it is impossible to express in words alone. They both knew that they would always be
there for each other, that they would give their life for each other with no
hesitation, not even a thought. They
both knew that even the barrier between life and death would not separate them
from each other.
When they finally pulled
apart Heero looked deep into Duo's violet eyes and whispered with a small
smile, "Happy Birthday."
*The End*
=========================================================================================
No flames please (about yaoi)... I warned you.
Anyway... how'd you like it? It's kind of awkward for me right now to write
yaoi because I haven't written or even thought about it for a loooooong
time. Anyway, you all liked happy
endings so here it is. Hope you enjoyed
Dreams. Give me feedback, too! I would love a review.
READ PLEASE!—I need to know how many of
you want me to write the rest of the series Spirits, and how many of you
wouldn't really care if I just deleted Part I and never finished it. Please tell me your opinions in a
review. Thanx a lot!
