Chapter 6: Heero's Confession
By: Joryuu
//Stay with me tonight, this only night
Don't forget you know//
Duo led Heero through the overly cheerful town and into a secluded park. They sat down on one of the many benches there. Duo set his smiling face upon Heero, waiting for him to start talking. Heero looked over to him. "Duo, who was that woman?" he asked, slightly jealous.
"Oh ya mean Tanya? She's been after me since my first day there. Heero, ya got nothin' to worry about. We're just friends. She so wants me though." said Duo, he smiled at Heero even wider, his sudden display of jealousy was giving Duo very high hopes.
"Does she know that you're..."
"Yeah, she was the first that I told at work, that way she didn't have to waste her flirting on me..."
"It seems she does it anyway." interupted Heero. Duo blushed then nodded. Obviously Duo was very experienced in that field.
"So what do ya want to talk about Heero-man?" Heero shrugged, not seeming as sure as he had been earlier. This was going to take a lot out of him. Confesssing everything, and Duo would most likely be ecstatic over the news. He drew in a deep breath, then the old woman's voice echoed through his head. 'Tell him the truth Heero, he will understand....'
"Duo, I figured something out this afternoon, I really want to be with you , no matter what..."
"Any fool could see that by the way you were actin' last night Hee.."
"Will you listen please?" Heero asked quietly, his cobalt blue eyes starring into the depths of Duo's own. Duo blushed a bit then nodded slowly. "Well I was thinking over all the things we've done wrong and I found that they could have been easily avoided. It wasn't you who caused them either Duo, I was the one who did it all. I was afraid of dealing with the emotions involved. I thought they would interfere with our missions if we worried for each other too much...
"I tried to act cold to you, tried to drive you away everytime that you came to close to seeing my unmasked self. Duo, you were the only one who came even close to seeing it. I was afraid of you Duo, not in a threatening way, just, you seemed so happy all the time, then you turned cold. All these years you have been my mission, to be with you, to hold you, I think that I am closer than ever now to accomplishing that mission I designed for myself.
"I want to be with you, only you forever, but the only way that is even possible to work is if we take it slow...."
"Do ya mean it?! Do you really mean it?!" duo demanded. He was now standing up in front of Heero, "Are ya positive?"
Heero nodded slowly, "Yes Duo, but slow, remember. That means we won't be living together right away, I'll have to get a job and..."
"Heero, let's not worry about that right now!" Duo was positively gleaming now. He looked around the park with a new, no longer waiting light in his eyes. "So this is it for missions Heero, no more ever?"
"No more ever Duo, you're worth too much for a small danger like that...."
Suddenly, as if intending to ruin the moment, Duo's watch alarm went off, informing him that there was only a few minutes remaining for his lunch break. He cursed quietly, under his breath. He looked up to Heero, again.
"I gotta get back to work.."
"I'll walk you there." Heero got up and put out his hand for Duo to take. Duo smiled broadly. He wasn't ashamed of the looks they were getting on the way up to the hospital and nor was Heero. The two just seemed to be walking on air. Finally, they arrived at the hospital. Duo bid Heero a cheerful goodbye after they'd decided to meet at a restaurant for dinner. As the hospital doors closed, Heero sighed. He was for once actually happy.
He looked up to the sky to see the beautiful sunrays beaming down on him. It was as if the whole world had finally gone right for once. "Mission Complete." he said, smiling, a true smile, not a maniacal grin that the oz soldiers used to see. It was looking up to be a good day.
//I don't want you to want me, cuz I'll hurt you in the end
Yeah but I don't need you to need me, Tonight I'll hold you tight but I won't come back.....//
The end!
Oh my god! It's finally all done! Now I can start working on some other projects. More stuff to do. No rest for Joryuu, who stupidly stays awake real late writing... I really should stop doin' that. Now that you've finished reading this, PLEASE drop me a line, monkey_princess86@hotmail.com C'mon people, I deserve to know what you think! By the way, my internet is down so I don't know when I can write y'all back eh!
