Its work

Cass-Chan, I had NO idea this story would take so long!

READ TO REVIEW!!!!!!!

Quatre hopped up the many steps to the room he shared with Duo. Duo was a pretty guy, like all of them, none of them were ugly. But Duo stood out, he too was a 'hot item.' His long braid was one of the reasons, also his ability to be blatantly easy. Quatre wasn't shy or scared to do anything, but Duo took it to the next level. Duo could be down right filthy! Put them together and you have one very fun night. So they roomed together, giving the effect that they were together. People liked that when they came bye to check the boys out. They liked to see them hugging, or reading a book together. But it was always acting. Always. They often talked about having real relationships, not with each other, with real people, who really loved them back, for more then just sex. They had also decided that for people in their line of work, that was an impossible dream. Quatre opened the door to find Duo reading, an amazing thing. "What book?" Quatre asked stepping into their shower and starting the water.

"Catch-22." Duo stopped reading and placed the book in a drawer. "Some people are coming bye in about twenty minutes, mind if I shower with you so that I dont have to worry about them walking in and watching?"

"Nah, come on." Quatre stripped off his clothes with such ease, and then stepped into the warm shower. Duo followed.

"So how was last night." Duo asked in a mock tone, while taking a hand full of shampoo.

"It was different." Quatre didn't want to explain to Duo that he liked Trowa, he didn't even want Duo to know that he remembered the boys name, the color of his shirt, the deepness of his eyes. Duo would kill him.

"What do you mean?" Duo began washing the tips of his hair, watching Quatre wash and rinse his with such ease made him almost want to chop the braid off.

"I don't know." Quatre turned around facing the wall and began to wash his body.

"Quatre. Tell me! There is something different." Duo fumbled with his hair again. Quatre sighed, he shouldn't tell Duo, but he had to tell someone.

"Alright, I like the guy." Quatre squeezed his eyes shut so not to see Duos expected expression of disapointment.

"Oh Quatre, you know that's a big No-No!" Duo mocked again, it seemed to be his favorite thing to do. "Damn this hair!" Duo pulled a chunk of hair.

"Oh, dont do that." Quatre took Duos hair and began to message in some shampoo. "Yea, but I really like this guy Duo. I dont know why."

"It was only one night Quatre, just like very other night." Duo rolled his eyes, although his friend couldn't see it. "Love isn't something we can do."

"But you love me." Quatre was sincere about this, he and Duo did care about each other, and did make love, and often before a job, Duo would remind Quatre that he loved him.

"Quatre, you know that's a different type of love." Duo knew this too.

"Yea. I know. But I can't see why I can't love someone." Quatre wasn't as insensitive in person as he seemed while on a job. "Why can't someone love me, why is love forbidden to me?"

"Quatre, did you have sex with this guy?" Duo knew where this was going and he didn't want Quatre to get hurt.

"Yes." Quatre sighed, he would loose this battle.

"Maybe he loved you just for the sex." Duo didn't want to hurt Quatre, but he wanted to make the boy think this thing through.

"No, I dont think so Duo." Quatre wasn't sure what to say, he just knew that Duo must be wrong.

"Well, I'm sure he will higher you again, if you dont have sex, he loves you." It was logical. "But I dont think that will happen." Duo said this as gingerly as he could and brushed wet bangs out of his eyes.

"But I'm paid to have sex." That was logical as well.

"Well, tell him that if he truly loves you then he will want to spend time with you and share something special with you."

"Like sex?" Quatre could see that again, he wasn't going to win.

"No Quatre, like reading. You love to read. And although I try, I hate to sit and read for hours with you. Maybe this guy will. And if he can just sit with you, and hold you, and read with you, then this guy it worth it." Duo made so much sense. Quatre was now looking at Duo like a child does a father giving advice.

"And if he doesn't?"

"Then I say fuck him. For the job, and messing with you. And be mean about it too!" That made Quatre smile. Duo liked that. He was now rinsing out his hair. "I love you Quatre." Duo pulled the blonde into a tight hug. "And I don't want you hurt."

"I love you, too Duo." Quatre was heartfelt, he truly loved his friend, Duo was the one thing that would always be there for him.

The two finished up in the shower and walked into their room. As to be expected, there were also possible new clients sitting on their bed and looking at pictures of them together that were held in small wooden frames on the dresser. Duo grinned widely and threw Quatre a towel as he covered himself. Wufei smirked at them.

"These two men would like an audience with you next Saturday, any plans?" Wufei gestured to the men, one had split eye brows, the other had long blonde hair.

"Well, we do now." Duo waltzed right over to the men and sat on the brunettes lap. He casually threw an arm behind his neck and fiddled with the hair at the base of the boys spine. Quatre leaned against a wall watching Duo with amazement. "Where are we going?" Duo whispered into the boys ear.

"No where!" The blonde was in an outrage when he saw the reaction the brunette had with Duo on his lap. "Lets go." The blonde took the other boys hand and dragged him out of the room. Wufei glared at Duo and ran after them. Quatre and Duo sat laughing, it was time to get dressed, neither had a date tonight, so they could be together. It was a rarity, and they were going to take advantage of it.

BACK TO TROWA:

The day had been uneventful, and Trowa had just woken up. It was now past lunchtime, and Heero was fast asleep in the same place Trowa had left him. He was disgusting and smelt horrible... allot like puke. Trowa kicked Heero gently. The boy woke up slowly and looked like hell. "Go take a shower or something. I'll clean this up." Trowa shoved Heero gingerly up the steps.

"Alright, thanks." Heero didn't bother bringing up why the blonde was still over in fear to get punched again. Trowa smiled and went to the kitchen to get things to clean with. It took awhile, but he got up all the stains and began working on picking up empty beer cans and other miscellaneous trash.

"Hey T-Man." Heero came jumping down the steps, obviously feeling much better, it had been about a forty-five minute shower.

"Where did you go to get Quatre- the blonde?" Trowa handed Heero a black garbage bag. Heero looked much better, and didn't complain when asked to help.

"A friend." For Heero that usually meant 'No way in Hell am I going to tell you!' So Trowa didn't bother pushing it any further.

"Can you get him again for me?" He looked up at Heero indirectly.

"Sure. But I have a-"

"No questions Heero." Trowa looked at the boy again. Although Heero and Trowa were matched in strength, Trowa held all the wild cards with the fact that Heero was still a bit queasy. Heero obliged.

"Alright. Friday?" Heero asked Trowa while he too picked up more trash, it seemed to be everywhere, people had no respect for the hosts, none at all.

"That's tomorrow."

"Yep." Heero looked at Trowa with those familiar kind eyes that were rarely seen.

"Thanks." Trowa smiled slightly, but not even Heero would ever notice.

I wrote, you read- now review

Want more??? Want to know if Trowa is a bastard and makes Quatre have sex with him? Want to know what happens to Duo??? Want to know what happens all together?????

And yes Duo and Quatre had sex- I'm sorry for all those who think it unjust. Just remember that they both are in the same position (No Henti!) and are good friends. They love each other, just not like Quatre loves Trowa. (I am a firm supporter of 3x4x3, and NOTHING ELSE! -except an occasional 5....) but this Fic isn't a 2x4, so dont get all angry. They just have sex, and in their line of work... Ehem... that isn't a big deal...
