The Prince and the Peasant: Part 16

Zechs sighed as he slowly walked down the hall. He had checked on Duo earlier and the young prince was doing much better.
Now all Zechs had to do was find a way to get Heero and Duo together again, even if it was only for an hour. Just an hour would do the prince a world of good.
He sighed once again as he headed toward the dungeon. Maybe the others had thought of something. Wufei looked up as Zechs approached the cell. Zechs smiled tiredly.
"You look awful," Wufei said.
Zechs chuckled quietly. "Thanks," he replied.
The three boys in the cell grinned.
"Did you sleep at all?" Quatre asked.
Zechs shook his head. "No, Not really."
Wufei shook his head. "Why?"
Zechs shrugged. "I don't know. Worried I guess."
Wufei frowned slightly but quickly changed it to a smile.
"Well, so far we haven't really come up with anything," Trowa said.
Zechs' spirits sank. He leaned against the wall and stood in silence for a few minutes. He jumped as a hand reached through the bars and touched gently rested on his arm. He looked up into Wufei's concerned eyes.
"Don't worry," Wufei said. "We'll think of something. Everything will be okay."
Zechs tied to smile, but failed miserably. He slid to the ground and buried his face in his hands. He had to think of something. He just had to. He couldn't stand seeing his cousin suffer so much. It had been hard enough when Duo had just been depressed. Now he had tried to kill himself all because his father wouldn't let him be with the person he loved.
Wufei's heart nearly broke as he watched the distraught young man slumped against the wall. He knelt down and reached his arm back through the bars and put it around Zech's shoulder as best as he could. He didn't want this young man to be upset. It hurt to see him this way. Wufei had felt drawn to him from the first time he had seen him, and now he felt a very keen pain in his heart at the sight of Zechs being so upset.
Zechs looked up at Wufei gratefully. The other boy smiled.
"We'll figure something out," he said. "I promise."
~*~*~*~*~*~*~
Quatre grinned at Wufei as Zechs left the dungeon and Trowa couldn't stop a smile from creeping over his face.
"What?" Wufei asked.
Quatre's grin got even wider. "You like him, don't you?"
A blush crept over Wufei's face. "No," he said, trying to deny it, but knowing full well that it was true.
Trowa laughed quietly. "No use denying it, Wufei. We know you better than that."
Wufei shrugged. "Yeah," he said. "I guess your right. I can't deny what's true, can I?"
Quatre laughed. "Nope."
Wufei smiled at Quatre and then started to laugh.
~*~*~*~*~*~*~
Zechs smiled to himself as he entered the quiet solitude of his room. Hopefully he would be able to get a little sleep and come up with a plan.
As he lay in his bed trying to figure something out, his mind drifted off to Wufei. The young boy had been so caring and concerned. Zechs felt his cheeks grow hot at the memory of the boy. He was the handsomest boy Zechs had ever seen. No, he wasn't handsome. He was absolutely beautiful. The most gorgeous boy Zechs had ever seen.
He blushed even more as realization hit him. He was in love with Wufei.
