Duo looked himself over in his closet's full-length mirror. A thin long sleeved crimson shirt covered his chest, black leather pants fit snug against his legs and a little dark makeup finished off his outfit. He was getting ready for a party that was being hosted by his only friend, Quatre Winner. Quatre was hoping to get into his crush's pants, the school's Basketball team caption, Trowa Barton. This party was only, to Duo, a relaxing event for an otherwise boring Friday night. Taking one more look at his outfit, he grabbed up his house keys and headed for the party, which was being held a block away.
Duo's choice of dark clothing allowed him to hide in the shadows of the room that was being used for the party. Too many of his enemies where there and he didn't want to get blood on Quatre's clean floors. He sipped at his soda and frowned as a strange boy moved toward him. This boy wore a grren tank top over a chiseled chest and black spandex shorts that left nothing to the imagination.
"Why are you standing over here? Why no enjoy the party," The boy asked.
"I'm not in the mood. What is your name? Mine is Duo," Duo replied.
"You can call me Heero. Will you dance with me? It is not right that you not enjoy this party. You came here to have fun. I can tell."
"You talk more than I do."
"I'm not usually this open. Please bare with me."
Duo took Heero up on his offer to dance and grinned as a particularly sexual song began to play. He shocked the other boy with the wild and sluttish way he danced. To Duo, he was only letting the rhythm of the song move him. When he turned to look at Heero, he was gone and before him was one of his rivals.
"Well Maxwell. I didn't aspect you to be here. Why so sad to see me?" Solo said.
"I don't want to fight here. As for my mood, you scared off my dance partner," Duo hissed in a polite manner
"Poor Duo. I make you lose your date?"
"No! Now leave me alone or I will kick your ass."
Solo took no heed of Duo's threat and threw a punch at him as his friends cleared the area around the two fighters. Duo dodged the punch and uppercut Solo in the stomach, causing the older boy to double over.
"Break it up! You two! I want you out of here," Quatre exclaimed as he pushed his way close to the two boys.
"He started it Q," Duo said as he moved away from Solo.
"I don't care. I want you two out."
"Understood."
Duo took one last look around the place, hoping to see Heero one last time. He didn't see the other boy and left as Quatre pulled at his arm. Quatre lead him out by his arm and looked at him sadly as he went back to the party. Sparing the place one last glance, Duo walked back to his home, the whole time thinking about Heero and who he was.
"I hope we meet again, Heero. I liked being around you. Some would say we are kindred souls," Duo mumbled to himself as he went to bed for the night.
