Chapter 1
Two months later. . .
A soft moan escaped delighted lips as teeth found them and nibbled softly. More delighted sighs were elected out as kisses, featherlight, drifted down a neck.
Relena laughed, hands entangled in Heero's chocolate colored hair, enjoying her break very much. She was thrilled and excited that her new body guard was also her boyfriend, pleased to know that he loved her as he claimed.
Heero's mind was on other matters though. They had flirted and kissed and all the rest millions of times and yet during each, he could not seem to feel. . .right about it.
Not for the first time, his mind drifted back to a certain ex-pilot's hot and passionate filled kiss. Tingles, surprisingly, had found its way down his spine, then. Now, the same effects were not there. He wondered why as he caressed Relena's face with his calloused hand.
"I have to go," he whispered huskily. "My shift is about to start."
Relena pouted prettily. "Come on, Heero. . .I can change that."
Heero chuckled. "I'm sure you can, but you have work to get to shortly as well." He offered a very faint smile, which she returned wholeheartedly.
"I love you, Heero," she breathed as they kissed one last time before he stepped outside the door and shut it behind him.
Yet this time, he found that if he said it, he would once again feel the seemingly lie that came with the three, simple, yet meaningful words. They just didn't seem to belong towards Relena. . .
Duo was alone for the past two months while Heero was having his fun with Relena. He was severely depressed, his lover gone. What was left for him to do?
Of course there were things for him to do. Go to the path of darkness. Fill himself with guilt, alchohol, drugs, but most of all. . .He really wanted Heero back.
"I need him. . ." Duo mumbled as he drank the remaining liquid in the mysterious dark colored bottle.
Laughter echoed across the empty hallway. Duo was going insane, being abandoned all these months was getting to him, hard.
"I'll get him back..just watch.." and Duo fell into a deep slumber from holding too much alchohol.
Heero dreamed that night. He dreamed of long, unbraided brown hair slipping through his fingertips. Of laughing, royal purple eyes and of a body that had fit so perfectly against his.
When he awoke, sun was breaking against the horizon, signaling a start of a new day. The hair's prickled on the back of Heero's neck. Something was going to happen today. . .
There was rapping on his door. "Yuy, you were to be at duty half an hour ago! Now get your damn ass up and out of bed!"
"Yeah, yeah," he mumbled, climbing out of bed, pulling on a pair of blue jeans and a fresh cleaned green tanktop. "Damn, Milliardo."
He swung open his door, stuffing his gun into back pocket, and ran a hand through his unruly hair, but not before brushing his teeth first. Sighing, he started down towards Milliardo's office to check in. He was lucky the man had even let him have a room in Relena's large estate.
Milliardo stood glowering over his desk, palms planted firmly on the polished oak. "New mission," he growled.
Heero nodded. "Hn."
The older man sighed. "We need to assign you an assistant."
Heero's eyebrows knitted together. "Why?"
Milliardo placed a hand over his face. "My sister requests it is so." He shot an evil glare towards the man he hated most. "I do not even want to find out why at this point. So, as of today, you have a new partner." His blue eyes flickered. "He'll appear around lunch. Dismissed."
Heero saluted then about-faced and walked from the room, not bothering to shut the door behind him.
Duo was in a better mood for a change. He was going to be closer to Heero, his longings for him would be filled. He applied aftershave, which he never did except on rare occasions, and got into his clean priest like outfit.
Before he left to go to the his "new job" he looked into the mirror.
He's face was dull and not himself. It was a total stranger, lost in deep lonliness, and sleep deprived.
The face in the mirror looked awful enough to crack the damn mirror. Duo turned away fiercely and tried out a wiry smile.
"This day is gonna be harder than I thought," Duo muttered through his clenched teeth as he walked out the door to his car and drove to his job's location: Sancq Kingdom.
He got jumpy like he was when he was near Heero. Just the thought of him got Duo excited. After all two months in the dark lonely home, he needed him..very bad. Duo sighed, thinking about the good times he had with his buddy as he drove closer to his destination.
Heero stood at attention outside of Relena's room, eyes as sharp as a hawk's, not letting anything pass by unnoticed. He checked his watch. Two more seconds or his new assistant would be late. . .
Footsteps sounded from down the hall and he looked up quickly, for some reason anxious to see who it was. A pit in his stomach had been growing all day. A figure came into view and he quickly regained his composure, bowing his head.
Booted feet came into view. Slowly, he looked up the body, and met royal purple colored eyes.
His breath caught and his heart began to hammer against his ribcage so loud he thought anyone could hear. His throat and chest constricted painfully and he finally managed to gasp out, "Duo?"
"Heh heh, hey Yuy," Duo replied, managing a smile. "So you're my new partner, eh?"
Heero narrowed his eyes. "What are you doing here?" he growled.
Duo glared back, anger written across his face. "Milliardo assigned me. Would you like to discuss it with him, Yuy?"
Heero opened his mouth to speak, then shut it quickly. Rage coursing through his boiling blood, he stormed down the hallway, all the way towards his employer's office. Once there, he banged open the door, and took six, long strides to the desk, where Milliardo looked up in surprise.
"Just what do you think you are doing, Yuy?"
Heero pointed back outside the door. "Just what are you doing hiring Maxwell?"
Milliardo raised a blond eyebrow. "Well, for one, Heero, I am the boss here, and I have the priority to hire who I want. Second, he is the best next to you. Do you have a problem?" he demanded shortly.
"Yes."
Milliardo merely leaned back in his chair, hands folded over his stomach. "Then leave."
Heero frowned. "Excuse me?"
"If you can't get it together for God knows what reason for me hiring Duo, then you leave. Got it?"
Heero swallowed, not sure of what to do.
"Well?" Milliardo barked.
Huffing, Heero nodded once, and stormed back to the wall outside of Relena's room, where Duo was waiting, smirking maliciously, arms crossed over his chest as he leaned against the door.
"Back so soon?" he asked sweetly.
Heero grabbed the front of Duo's shirt and slammed him up against the wall, arm pressed against his throat. "If you dare get in my way, or my girlfriend's way, which is Relena, I will kill you," he hissed. "And this time I mean it."
Duo's smirk only grew. He shoved Heero off him in return, surprising the ex-pilot, and brushed himself off. "I'm tired of being pushed around by the likes of you." Hurt tinged his words, and Heero caught it. He looked down, not daring to stare up at Duo.
When Heero finally stood back up, Duo was looking at him, eyes gleaming. "So you're lovers with Relena?"
It took Heero everything he had not to wipe that look right off Duo's face. "Yes," he replied evenly.
Duo shrugged. "Wow, Yuy, I'm impressed. After that pleasant display of homosexuality back home, I didn't think you had it in you."
Never mind. In seconds, Duo was on the floor, nursing his now sore cheek, Heero's fist still suspended within the air.
Duo was in shock and in pain. He was shocked that he got hit. He's lover is now a bisexual or maybe even straight? But the pain wasn't just from the punch he had given him, it was emotional too.
Heero looked at Duo who was crumpled on the floor rubbing his cheek. He was surprised Duo didn't shake it off with a smile or anything like he'd use to do when they were pilots.
Tears came one by one from Duo's eyes. He couldn't hold them back. Heero couldn't help but see them and automatically squatted down to help him up.
"Look I'm sorry." Heero meant it too. But Duo shrugged it off and pushed away from Heero and ran outside.
Heero was going to run after him, but Relena came out from the her office from the ruckus that happened a minute ago. "What's wrong sweetly?" Relena asked innocently. "Nothing." was all Heero said and walked toward the door.
