It was warm and soothing. There was a soft cushion…soft…hands. Prussian blue eyes opened and a small groan escaped the lips of the Japanese boy. Duo looked down at the waking one that just so happened to be in his lap with his jacket on, and stroking Heero's forehead with his 'soft' hands. It took Heero a few moments to register this, before he jolted up looking around at the now night scenery.

"Geez…I thought I was soft like someone kept mumbling over and over again." Duo smirked slightly. Heero glared at the American then looked over at Wufei who raised an eyebrow. "Don't look at me. I had nothing to do with it." Heero started to get up when Duo pushed him back down, "Sit." He said like he was talking to a dog. Heero twitched slightly and moved his eyes down at the hands on his shoulders.

Duo grinned sheepishly and moved them off. "Still, buddy. You have yourself a temp so you better rest. We found out cold on Wing Zero." Heero looked down noticing he was wearing Duo's jacket. He took it off and tossed it back to him. Duo caught it with a small sigh and sat back down staring at the fire. Heero hugged his knees also looking into the fire.

After a few moments of silence… "If only we had marshmallows.." Duo sighed once more. Wufei looked over at Duo then laid himself down, "I'm going to sleep." Duo waved slightly, "Nighty nighty Wu-" Wufei shot a glare over at Duo. "Er..Night Wufei.." The Chinese boy soon drifted off. "Well…just us eh He-chan?" Heero gave Duo a glare, "I told you not to call me that." Duo went quiet for a..short while.

"How are you feeling?" He asked, worried about the guy. Heero stared into the flames as if he was about to throw himself in…or that's what Duo thought he was about to do. "..I'm all right." Heero answered, surprisingly Duo slightly. He noticed Heero trembling and frowned, "Look..will..will you just take the damn jacket?!" Duo threw it at him getting it on his head. Heero took the jacket off and stared at it then gently placed it around his shoulders.

Duo smiled as he watched Heero lay down. He stared at him for a while watching the breath flow against his lips and the way his hair fell against his face. Duo crawled over after he made sure he was asleep…or hoping he was asleep..never know what this guy would pull if he caught him. Duo placed his hand on Heero's forehead and sighed, "You still need to get that down…" The long haired boy crawled back over and laid down folding his arms. He let out a yawn and closed his eyes joining the others in peaceful slumber.

As morning came, the boys spent time trying to get Death Scythe off of Wing Zero and after a few hours, they did so successfully. They laid the gundams down to keep them hidden or at least try to hide them. It turned out that they weren't that much damaged but pretty banged up to keep them there for a while. Heero sat in Wing and tested the computer trying to see if it was still up and running and maybe to get a calculation of damage. "45%…Its not that bad.." Heero said as he ran through the system. "I'm fine here. Only a few banging around. I can still use 'em." Duo said proudly patting Death Scythe's computer.

"Heero want a break?" Heero glared at…well nothing but he pictured Duo's face there. "No and stop asking me that.." The Japanese shut down the computer and climbed out. Duo waved from where he was as he hopped out. Wufei was sitting on Nataku's chest with his legs crossed and eyes closed, seemingly meditating.

"Wuuuu what's for lunch?" Duo walked over and looked up at him. Wufei didn't budge but spoke, "I don't know. Whatever we find then…and do not call me that for the millionth time." Duo held up his hands, "Okay okay sheesh. I hear ya..Hey..He.." Duo turned over to look at Heero who was leaning against Wing coughing.

Wufei opened his eyes, "He needs rest. It gets colder during the night..he needs some place warm." Duo shoved his hands into his pockets, "All right…you tell him that." The black haired boy slid off his gundam and walked over to Heero. Duo blinked, "I wasn't serious but..eh.."

Heero looked up at Wufei approached. His eyes narrowed and so did Wufei's. They stared at each other like that for quite some time then Duo stood off in the middle and looked back…and forth…and back and forth.. "Uh…guys?" Wufei and Heero both glared at Duo, who stepped back. "Yuy…Your health is important. You should stop doing work and rest your body." Wufei talked firmly.

Heero glared, "I need no one to tell me what to do. Your words are nothing and I can take care of myself." He turned and walked away. Wufei let the words flow in one ear and out the other. He then turned to Duo, "It didn't work." Duo laughed slightly, "I didn't think it would."

They sat down eating some fruit they found in the woods somewhere. Or well…Wufei and Duo ate, Heero refused for personal reasons that he didn't state. But Duo didn't give up so he force fed Heero with the result of him running off somewhere and vomiting.

"You didn't need to do that to him.." Wufei said as he ate quietly. Duo shrugged and sat down, "Well I thought he could need something in his stomach." Heero came back glaring at Duo with death in his eyes. Duo shrank back when suddenly he fell over as the earth shook with a loud rumble. All eyes darted towards the sky as various mobile suits landed.

Before Heero ran off, Duo dragged him back into the forest with Wufei to stay hidden. "Do you think they'll find the gundams?" Duo whispered. Wufei shook his head, "They're not close to them.." Just then from behind a mobile suit stood there. And a voice called out, "You three get out and show yourselves!"

The three remained silent for a while but came out into the clearing and were greeted by several men in uniforms. Wufei growled, "We haven't done anything." Duo butted in, "Yet." Wufei glared at Duo who just looked away. Heero was checking out his surroundings as they were forced to board a ship.
