What if Quatre really was Solo?

Umm... I've been asked to continue this. I had originally planned on leaving it as is. It gets sappy here and not really what a lot of people like. Like I said, I tried to continue it... I really tried! Ah well, the standard disclaimer, I don't own Gundam Wing!
-------------------------------------------
Everyone but Quatre was at the table eating breakfast. Duo looked on edge about something.
"Duo? You seem less talkative this morning." Wufei sounded almost worried. Almost.
"Hm? Oh, sorry. Just thinking."
"About what?"
"Nothing in particular."
Quatre tentatively walked in. "Hello."
Duo perked up. "Good morning!"
Quatre visibly relaxed. "Good morning Duo. How was your sleep?"
"Great! How about you?"
"Quite normal, thanks." Quatre sat down and started to eat. The others stared at the strange conversation they had just witnessed.
"What was that?" Wufei asked.
"What do you mean?" Asked Quatre innocently.
"I mean, what was that conversation you and Duo just had?"
"I'm still not absolutely sure what you are asking..." Quatre trailed off.
"Maybe Duo can answer. He was the one sulking until you walked in."
"Huh? What do you mean? I wasn't sulking! I was thinking!" Duo started to sound slightly desparate.
"You know exactly what I mean."
"Now I'm confused..." Quatre said.
"Nevermind. Just forget it." Wufei got up and left.
Heero and Trowa exchanged glances and shrugged. They both went back to their food.
"Duo, what was he talking about?" Quatre asked inquisitively.
"I... I don't know."
"Okay. I think I'll go work on the book I was reading yesterday." Quatre got up and went into the living room. Duo followed soon after.
------------------------------------------------
Duo found Quatre reading silently on the couch where he had found him yesterday.
"Duo. What were the talking about?" Duo jumped slightly, as if caught off guard.
"Umm... I don't know, exactly..."
"What do you think they were talking about?"
"I suppose I was a bit thoughtful before you came in, and it was about you. I mean, with what I just found out yesterday..."
"Yeah. But It really seemed to bother Wufei. I wonder why."
"Now that I really don't know. Maybe he just wanted to find out if there was something he could tease me about, instead of me teasing him."
"That makes sense, but I still have never seen him act that way."
"Maybe... Maybe he thinks there is something between us?..."
"I wouldn't put it past him, but those type of thoughts I wouldn't of thought would cross his mind."
"Huh?"
"Sorry. I mean I didn't think he would think of that stuff. That did sound kind of confusing."
"It was slightly, and what you said makes sense, but I think he would think of that. He knows I'm gay, after all."
"Huh? Okay, this is news to me."
"Uh... Umm..." Duo blushed slightly. "I'm sorry I never told you. I probably wouldn't of told anyone of I hadn't of slipped in front of him, kinda like I just did..."
"'Sokay. It doesn't bother me any. How long have you known? I mean, like how did you know?" Quatre asked quickly.
Duo blushed even more. "Oh, I've known for a while. since the gang, I guess..."
"But how did you know?"
Duo didn't answer, just averted his eyes and coughed.
"If you don't want to say, that's fine. I was just wondering." Quatre looked almost let down.
"It's okay. I figured it out because I liked a guy. Thats how I knew. It felt stronger when he died..."
"I'm sorry. I shouldn't of brought it up." Quatre hung his head and looked upset.
"Oh, it's okay. It's been so long, and some recent developments have overshadowed his death. Almost like he hadn't of died at all..." Duo looked away.
Quatre's eyes widened as he looked up at Duo. "Oh my..."
Duo just blushed even more.
Quatre smiled. "Don't feel bad about it. I don't hate you. In fact, quite the opposite..." It was Quatre's turn to blush slightly.
Duo sat there and blinked for a few seconds while the information sunk in. "That's why you were asking. You wanted to know if you were... too?"
"Yeah..." Quatre said, barely louder than a whisper.
"Aw man, so long, and I had originally thought I was doing Solo's memory wrong by liking you, but ya'll are one in the same. Dude."
Quatre raised an eyebrow. "Huh?"
Duo looked sheepish. "Aparently I fell in love with Solo twice. Or Quatre, however you want to put it."
"Just leave it at Quatre, please." Quatre smiled tentatively.
"Now what? I'm still partially shell-shocked over you being Solo, much less liking me..."
"I don't know. I really don't know."
Duo stood up and slowly walked over to Quatre. He lightly put his hand on Quatre's shoulder. I'm gonna go watch a movie. Wanna watch it with me?"
Quatre placed his hand on Duo's. "Sure. Which movie?"
Duo seemed to brighten even more. "I was thinking 'Resident Evil: Nemisis', myself."
"Duo, you know those types of movies bother me..."
"Exactly why. They scare you." Duo gave a sly grin.
"Duo... Fine. I'll watch it, just this once though. Okay?" Quatre looked up at Duo with an answering grin.
"I go with that. Come on then!" Duo tugged on Quatre's shoulder.
"Hold your horses, I'm hurrying as fast as I can!" Quatre got up and poked Duo in the side, making him jump. "So there!"
Duo wrapped his arms around his own waist. "Hey! Don't do that!"
Quatre giggled as Duo tried to look indignant. Duo gave up and broke down laughing too.
"Now how about that movie?"
