I took a few chapters from the previous story. I
thought they worked well.
Chapter 6
It had been a week. Heero was in a coma. Duo felt like
he had no tears left to shed. He had barely left his
bedside, never went home. He couldn't go home where there
were so many reminders of Heero. Reminders of how he had
been alone all this time. Vawter had killed himself the
day after Duo had arrived back on earth. In a way, it
hadn't fazed him. He was in a state of shock now. Duo
had sat in silence as they heard what had happened, how
Heero happened to meet Vawter. It confirmed his suspicions.
Heero had never gone into chat rooms when they lived
together. It was all his fault. After he had heard the
news, he went back to the hotel room and cried himself to
sleep.
Quatre and Trowa were still there. Wufei had to get back
home to Sally. They were being incredibly supportive.
More than he had expected really. They had allowed Duo
access to their hotel room and always seemed to know when
he needed to be alone or needed to be around someone. He
hadn't said much the past week. Before, it was like he had
so much to tell the world. Now he was so wrapped up in his
thoughts he barely said a word.
Duo was sitting next to Heero's bedside, just watching him.
Watching his chest rise and fall in that rhythmic pattern,
holding his hand. All he wanted was to see those eyes open.
He didn't care how long the recovery was; they would get
through it together. The doctors had no clue how long it
would be before he woke up. They said he was still unstable.
Duo hoped with everything he had that Heero would come out
of this.
"Heero. Please, wake up. Everyone's waiting for you here,
so come on. I don't want to lose you. I've learned
something this past week. You are more important to me
than anything in the whole world. I love you Heero Yuy.
I love you more than I've loved anyone. And, damn it, you
need to wake up so you can hear that." Tears began falling
down his face again. "I want to grow old with you and take
walks in the parks and go on dates. We can't do that if
you're here, lying in this bed. So come on. "He heard the
door open behind him. It was Trowa.
"Duo, you look beat. Maybe you should go get some sleep at
the hotel."
He sighed. "Yeah, you're right." He turned to look at him.
"Thanks again. You and Quatre are really helping" Trowa
nodded. Duo walked out the door and headed towards the
hotel. He barely made it inside before he collapsed on
the bed and fell into a dreamless sleep.
~*~
Heero walked on a forested path. Where was he? How had he
gotten here? All he knew was that something was waiting for
him at the end. He kept walking.
~*~
Duo woke up the next morning. He took a shower and was
getting ready to go back to the hospital when the door
opened. Quatre opened the door and grinned at Duo, saying
the words that Duo had wanted to hear more than anything.
"He's awake."
Duo stared open mouthed at Quatre. Heero. Awake. He
would have smiled if he hadn't been so shocked.
"The doctors say things look good. He
should be up and about in a few weeks."
"We can see him right?"
"Yeah. They're letting more people at a time now, so we
can all see him at the same time."
"Lets go then." He smiled and walked to the car with
Quatre.

Let me know if I should keep on going with this.
