Can Vampires love?? (Revised)

Disclaimer: I don't own anything of the gundam pilots nor do I own Usagi, But Tora and Tsuki are mine!

Chapter five: More memories.

            Heero Yui was staring at the at the blank screen. There were many time when he didn't appreciate Tora stealing his laptop just so she could test the simulator. Hell he didn't appreciate the fact that no matter how many times he changed the password the computer girl always managed to crack the password and get the computer for her own  use. Thus leading to one of his moments where he threatens her life and his gun would go flying out the  window because Tsuki doesn't appreciate anyone threatening her cousin.

"I'm sorry.." Quatre thought silently to himself. He knew he shouldn't be kicking himself but he felt the blame needed to be placed somewhere and he felt it  belonged to himself. All the heartbreak  could've been avoided if he had helped them in the first place.

*~*~*~*~

"Onna, do you ever shut up??" Wufei snapped at Tsuki who was currently ranting and raving over Heero Yui. The guy who held a gun to Tora's  head during computers class because she got caught downloadng a program into the computer so she could build a mini version of Sandrock. Heero accused the girl of being part of some small groups associated with Oz. Tora merely stared at the gun and told him he needed a newer version of the one he had for some reason. Heero took the safety off the guy and Tsuki took and tossed it out the window making him go get it.

"Don't call me Onna china boy!!" She kicked him in the butt making Duo crack  up laughing. Tora  glanced up from the book When she walked into a pole.

"Duo!! You were supposed to tell which way to go so  I don't run into things."

"I'm sorry babe." Duo apologized in between breaths.

"I'll direct you." Quatre offered.

"Thanks, Q-chan."

"Onna!! Don't call me China boy!!"

"Do you want a re-enactment of what happened with me and Duo??" Tora asked still reading the book now being directed by Quatre.

"Because none of us here have the guts to mess with Tsuki when she's upset." Usagi provided holding Wufei's hand within her own as they  made it to the  resturant doors.

"Duo!!!" A girl with dark hair walked up. She seemed to be a girlie girl too with the curly hair, the skirt, shoes and shirt all rather tight fitting. Duo  looked at her then did a double take, Tora stopped reading her book when she noticed his double take from the corner of her eye.

"Hilde?!?!" He took the girl's hand and spun  her around giving a good whiff of the girl's perfume. "I'll meet you all inside." Duo said and the group walking into the resturant and sat where Heero was currently waiting for the others at. They were sitting by the window and Tora managed to get a seat facing Duo and that girl Hilde.

"Hello I'm Unazaki and I'm  your waitress for tonight." She said. "Anything I can  get for everyone right now??"

"Hai.." Tora spoke up first. "I'd like an Iced Tea please??" She said and the girl took her order.

"Can you guys actually eat food??" Quatre whispered in Usagi's ear.

"We're only half blooded vamps." Usagi said. "The other  half is human, so yes." She said noticing Tora trying hard to focus on her book,  but she kept finding herself glancing at  Duo and that Hilde girl outside talking. Each time she looked at them she would start chewing on her lip harder.

"Tora maybe you should put your book away and talk with the  rest of us." Tsuki suggested only  getting a glare from the usually calm and happy   girl. "You're chewing your lip again. You're going to wind up peircing it again." She whispered in her ear only making the glare more intense. "Fine but don't say  you weren't warned." She sighed and gave Usagi a look and tilted her head towards Tora who's lip was really red as she tried once more to focus her mind on her book. She glanced at the two again and saw that Hilde seemed to be leaning in for the kill..  just as she was  inches away Tora's eyes filled up with tears as pain throbbed from her lower lip, that was now  bleeding.

"Ow…" she murmured gaining attention from the abnormally silent group. She closed her book,  covered her mouth with her hand and walked away looking paler than usual. Just as she left Duo  sat down at the table with his friends.

"Why is everyone so quiet??" He asked.

"Nothing to say." Usagi filled in watching his eyes scan  his group of friends.

"Where's Tora??" He ignored what Usagi had said.

"She looked like she was sick and I guess went to the bathroom??"  Quatre cocked his head to the side in confusion.

*She bit her lip till it started bleeding * Usagi filled in using the mental link that had set up a while ago. Quatre blinked for a few seconds.

*Bad?? *

*For Normal reaasons no.. but jealousy got the best of her so  it could be *

"I-I'm not feeling too well." Tora studdered out not  making  eye contact with the group. "I-I-I'm  going home." She said.

"I'll go with you."  Duo stood up.

"No…" she held up a hand. "You stay and eat.. I'll walk home."

"Let me walk with you." He reached for his scarf that had been laying lazily on the chair behind him.

"No.. Just stay." She said grabbing her book, shoving it into her coat pocket and walked out the  resturant. Duo sighed pulled on his jacket and scarf and headed down the snowy streets after her.

"Do either of them know of the chemistry between them??" Unazaki came back with several beverages.

"No…" Everyone said together while she shook her head.

"It'll be one hell of a relationship later." She murmured walking away.

"Tora!!!" Duo  chased after her and she stopped with her dark eyes were glistening with tears that was only magnified by her glasses.

"I told you to stay and eat Duo-kun."

"And you won't eat??" He asked as the tears magically  vanished.

"Sure.. I'll find something.." She said gently.

"Don't eat alone then." He walked with her back to the apartment the girls shared.

"It's fine. I just did't want  you to leave minna-chan because I was leaving."

"It's fine." He said finding that he was becoming accustomed to the girls  using Japanese  words here and there. "I can't have one of my better friends eating alone." He said as they stopped out side their apartment door. "Epecially one who  stole my trade mark braid." He said making her laugh. He watched her laugh and noticed her lips were redder than   usual. "You  wearing make up??" He found himself running his thumb over her lips without a second thought. They were smooth with some clear gloss. He rubbed in the gloss with his thumb and pointer. He studied her face longer seeing that her red lips and pale face was sexy as hell.

"No.. Just lipgloss." She said. "The usual. Why??"

"No  it's  just your lips… they're redder than  usual.."  He said with an unusual urge to kiss her lips right then and there. 'But this is Tora.' He reminded himself. 'She's a bookworm. You don't become attracted to a bookworm Duo Maxwell, You don't understand half of what she talks about.' He said watching her 'redder than  usual' lips turn into a smile.

"You  notice my lip color??"

"Of course I notice." He watched her put a pan in the oven.

"Come I  just got the Lord of the Rings Dvd. I'll put my book down to watch T.V . For a bit.." She grinned at him and put the movie in.

"I'm honored." He joked.

"You should be…" She said whacking him with her newest manual.

"You  can't get away with that!!!" He tackled her to the floor making her squeal with laughter. Before long they were both wrestling on the floor.

"Duo!!!! My leg can't bend that way!!!" She yelled and he let up.

"You ok??"

"Perfectly fine!!"  She managed to fip him on his  back and was sitting on him triumphantly. "Pinned ya!!"  She smiled at him. She realized that her braids had come undone in the process and her hair was free and hanging about her body.

"That was a low blow Tora. faking injury  so I'd let up." He stared up at her hair was wavy and her lips were still that unusual red and he was suddenly noticing how many  curves the girl actually  had which left him dumbfounded because girl had CURVES. God she was  beautiful at that moment,  and he couldn't help the 'unclean' thoughts he was suddenly having.

"I didn't fake injury… I just told you my leg couldn't bend a certain way." She said and pinched his nose. "And I think the food is ready." She declared but  didn't move from her position on top of him. "What??"

"What??'

"You  keep staring at me." She pointed out.

"I-I was just thinking." He provided and she got off of him exasperated. He laid on the floor a little longer thinking that he was lucky she was sitting on his chest. For some reason  his mind and hormones weren't acting right and he was sure if he liked that.

"Baka come eat!!" He stood up to see she had pulled all of her hair back into a ponytail. They sat at the table eating and making jokes about Tsuki and Heero and how funny it would be if they got together.
