Gundam Wing: La Femmes
A Fanfic by Lady Lye
(c)2001
Rated for strong language on behalf of the characters. Remember- it's not the author w/ the potty mouth-it's her potty-mouthed characters.
Disclaimer: I do not own the whole GW thing... If I did I sure as h*ll wouldn't be here wasting my time writing fanfics about them- I'd be using them as my you-know-what slaves per my latest obsession. So don't try to sue me- it ain't worth it.
Note: rough translation for my rough use of Spanish can be found at the bottom of the chapter. This will include all previous phrases.

Gundame: (pronunciation varies between gun-dum-eh and gun-dam-ay, but never gun-dame.) The mobile suits used by the five new girls. They are made of gundanium alloy but are coated with a newly developed substance making their shell even tougher than the gundams. Their pilots are known as the Dames.

Duo made it through the meal. Barely. He thought he was going to have a heart attack every time one of them opened their mouths. When they all finally stood to go back inside, he stretched and said, "Ya know, I think I'm gonna turn in early tonight-"
"But you always stay up late," both girls said in sync. They laughed at the joke.
Duo tried to calm his ever-thumping heart. This was too much for one day… Too many close calls… Look at the way the fading light shone of Kyla's hair… "Um, right. I'm a- I'm not feeling too well, so I'm going to bed."
"You're sure?" Kyla looked concerned and reached up to feel is forehead. "You do feel a little hot."
"I bet he he's found some comic he wants to read or something," Hilde laughed.
"Sleep tight then, Maxwell," Wufei said too-happily.
"Si. C'mon, Kyla, I want to see that dress," Isabel took her hand and they ran back in, talking happily.

"You want to practice again? The instruments are here," Quatre said to Trowa.
"Sure. I feel like I'm getting out of practice."
"You both play?" Estelle was surprised.
"Yeah. Violin and flute," Quatre indicated who played which.
"I play keyboard!" Estelle said happily. "Could I join you?"
"Sure," they shrugged.
"Raisa, why don't you get your flute as well," Estelle turned to her.
"Huh? Oh- no- I couldn't. I'm not good enough," Raisa went a little pink.
"Don't be modest, Raisa!" Estelle said as they went inside. "I know how good you are! I wouldn't have said anything if I thought you couldn't handle it."
"Um, I'm not exactly feeling up to it… I'll catch you guys some other time, ok?" Raisa made her excuse and left. She headed back to her room and leant against the wall when they were out of sight. They played the same instrument… Resolutely she went to her room and pulled out her flute. Maybe she would join them.

Kyla changed behind the screen in her room and came out to show Isabel. "Isn't it beautiful?"
"Si, Kyla! It is! Where's this shop you found? Did they have one in red?"
"A style better suited to you, yes- long with a slit."
"And you say the dingbat bought it for you?"
"Yes," Kyla paused. "He said it was his gift."
"Some gift," Isabel whistled. She thought of Hilde.
"What aren't you telling me?" Kyla frowned.
"I suggest you ask your dingbat about that," Isabel couldn't help saying.
"He's not MY dingbat…" Kyla focused all her attention on cutting off the tags.
"So is he Hilde's?" Isabel couldn't help it.
"Well he's not the Australian girl's that's for sure…" Kyla's hands tightened just thinking about it.
"What Australian girl?" Isabel frowned.
"Today in the shop… she came in… I saw her hitting on him but he didn't accept it. She acted like she knew him really well," Kyla put a hand up to her mouth. "She called me a hussie and said I 'wouldn't last'. Duo- he-" she blushed. "He put his arm around me and told her to go…"
"Kyla, he likes you!" Isabel cried happily.
"No… he couldn't possibly… we've only known each other for a few days…"
"So what? Love at first sight, right? And remember the first time you saw him? Kyla, you fell for him on the spot! When he literally fell for you!"
"No… And what were you saying about Hilde? She's obviously known him for a long time…" Kyla bit her lip. She had pretended not to notice how close to him Hilde has sat. Or the way she had looked at him and spoken to and about him.
"I suggest you talk to your dingbat about that," Isabel repeated. "Come on, Kyla, why not go now? He's alone, we know that."
"Maybe he's not though…" Kyla's voice broke a little. "Maybe she got there first…"
"Stop that, muchacha! Your imagination is always worse- go talk to him or you'll never know for sure. You're a Dame! You can do this!"
"Thanks, Isa," Kyla smiled weakly. "I'll go now." She left to do so.
"Good luck, amiga," Isabel sighed.

Duo sat on his bed and put his head in his hands. What the hell was he going to do? He liked Hilde, he really did. He'd never want to hurt her. But he was pretty sure that he loved Kyla. But he wasn't sure if she loved him back. Was it worth it to risk his relationship with Hilde to hope that Kyla liked him?
Someone knocked on the door. "Can I come in?" Hilde called.
"Uh, sure," Duo pretended to look ill.
"You ok?" Hilde kept the door half-open and stood near it. "I've missed you, ya know."
"Yeah, I've missed you too," he stared at his hands.
"You don't sound happy about it," Hilde frowned.
He made a decision. "Hilde, we need to talk."
"Isn't that what we're doing?" she smiled.
"No, seriously talk." He gestured at a chair.
"Alright," she sat, confused.
They chose the room Heero and Trowa had holed themselves up in for the last few days because it had a large electric piano for Estelle to play, as she hadn't brought her keyboard with her. The three tuned their instruments and kept to a conclusion as to what key they would be in etc.
Heero, having no where else to go, took his seat on the couch. He had to admit, he had missed hearing Trowa and Quatre play. Wufei joined them as well. A few minutes later, Isabel came and sat next to him. Relena and Andria were no where to be found- probably both in their rooms. Heero tried not to think about it.
"You begin," Trowa said to Quatre.
"Alright," he put up his violin. The beautiful strains of a song came through. He played alone for quite a while before Trowa joined him. Estelle programmed the keyboard and a percussion part began to play. She let it go and joined them on the regular piano setting.
Their music penetrated heart and soul. Were Wufei and Heero not heavily trained soldiers, they would have had tears in their eyes, just as Isabel did.
"That's beautiful!" she gasped. "Keep going!"
They looked at each other. Quatre and Trowa nodded. They began to play the first piece they had ever played together. (AN: I love that "Heart Throbbing Harmony"
Duo sighed and wandered through the halls of the house. He could hear Trowa, Quatre and someone else playing some haunting tune. He couldn't help appreciating it.
"Duo?"
He turned. Why was her voice so insecure? "Hey," he said to Kyla.
"Um, Duo, I-" she bit her bottom lip. How the hell did you tell someone something like this? "I-"
"Can we- dance?" Duo asked pleadingly.
Kyla was surprised. She could hear the music as well. A beautiful duet now. "Sure," they joined hands.
They danced together, their motions perfectly in sync. Thy both smiled happily. It had taken this contact to show them what they had known all along.

Raisa stood outside the living room, completely still. She could see everything perfectly. All her attention was on Trowa. He was spectacular. She couldn't even find the right word for it. She became lost in the music and in the sight of him.
