I'd like to thank everyone who's reviewed my story and stayed with it. A big thanks to all who wished my family and I good luck. My mom didn't loose her job, she just wasn't qualified for the position she's been doing for the past nine years any more. Damn bitch of a boss who's a lazy ass and can't do what her position requires her to do. Sorry. Anywho.

Duo's Secret only had another two or so chapters written. Cry, I'm still working on Ch 8, but I'm stuck so I'm asking for any suggestions, send them over.

Now, I've always said that I've been at least ten chapters ahead of the one I've uploaded so I'm going to start uploading this story again. But I'm changing my mind about how I was going to finish this story. I was writing a few chapters last night and, well the endings I had already written months prior wouldn't fit into what I had just written. I don't think that this is going to be a happy ending story like I thought it was.

          "There goes Serena." Hotaru laughed as she watched Serena run out to her jeep. "And there goes Heero."

          "What are you talking about Taru?" Lita asked as she walked to the window to see Serena pulling out with Heero jumping onto her jeep to get in.

          "They've got a mission, I guess, Duo stole Heero's truck this morning and hasn't come back. So Serena's got to take Heero to Quatre's then speed off to her hanger. Unless Heero decided to try and order her around." Hotaru told her with a smirk. "Serena's probably going to end up taking one of the guys gundams…."

          "DeathScythe Hell." They said in unison, before falling into a fit of laughter. Which was how Raye, Mina, Quatre, Trowa and Duo found them when they entered the room about an hour later.

          "He's not going to be happy if she has to." Lita whispered once she had calmed down enough to notice that there were others in the room. Hotaru smiled sweetly as she ran into the kitchenette to get something to drink.

          "We'll find out in an hour or two more." Hotaru called back as she walked over to the others and offered them drinks.

          "Heero Yuy, you… I'm not going to waste my breath." Serena muttered as they walked into the dorm hall that night. Heero smirked as they made their way to the floor their dorms were on. Serena rolled her eyes as she scrached the back of her neck.

"I couldn't use my gundam he says…. It'll take to long he says…. Makes me work with a thermo-beam…." Heero couldn't help but roll his eyes as he listened to Serena rant under her breath. "Only good thing that came out of it was I don't have to make the repairs. Ooh Heero how ya gonna to explain that one?"

"Hnn."

"Oh yes, that's very creative." Serena smirked as the door opened to see Hotaru and Lita waiting for them at the elevator. "Interesting, but if you don't mind I'm going to bed."

"Nope, the two of you are coming to our dorm for a while." Lita smirked as the two soldiers raised an eyebrow. Hotaru gave Heero the evil eye as Lita dragged Serena, gently, to the room they were in.

"Oh, Heero why don't you tell Duo now……" Serena smirked as the other two started to laugh. Heero rolled his eyes as he wrapped his arm around Hotaru's waist.

"How did we know?" Lita smirked as the four walked into the room. Mina was apologizing to Serena once she had spotted the taller blonde in the door way. Hotaru and Lita were trying to get Heero to tell Duo what had happened to his beloved gundam that afternoon while he had taken Heero's car. Raye was in a heated debate with Wufei over strenght and fighting techniques. Duo was watching the soon to be fight with interest as Quatre and Trowa talked in the corner.

"Come on Heero tell him. This wouldn't have been an issue if you hadn't ordered me and threatened to blow up my car. You know what? I happen to have a very big an issue about that one, I happen to love my car very much." Serena laughed as she watched the other three pilots that were listening turn to look at a slightly flustered Heero.

"I will kill you." Heero muttered as the girls rolled their eyes.

"I will kill you, I will kill you. I'm sorry that does not compute. That phrase I will kill you is not in my memory bank. Please try another phrase." Serena smirked as she leaned up against the wall, watching Hotaru elbow Heero in the side to tell his comrade.

"Hee-Man what have they been trying to get you to say for the last hour?" Duo laughed as he watched Heero throw glares at the three girls around him. Hotaru hit him upside the head when he didn't say anything.

"You're gundam was used in battle today." Heero told him as Duo's face turned red. Looking at the two that had come in late he took a deep breath.

"Why?" Duo inquired as he kept his eyes locked onto Heero's.

"It would take her too much time to get to her hanger." Heero answered as Duo turned to face a smirking Serena.

"Why my gundam?"

"Not enough ammo, I will not break his honor, and not enough speed for the location." Serena answered as she counted off the reasons. "And it was his orders."

"So how is Scythe?" Duo asked his voice laced with worry.

"Few minor repairs needed." Heero answered as Duo visable relaxed.

"So Serena how did you like Scythe?" Duo smiled, laughter visable in his colbalt eyes. Serena muttered something under her breath before rolling her eyes.

"What was that Serena?" Mina laughed as she looked up at Serena.

"Wasn't very thrilling experience." Serena muttered. "And I hate thermo-beams."

"WHAT!?!?" Duo cried out. "I'll have you know….. mhemnngnehe."

Lita and the others were rolling on the ground as they watched Quatre stuff Duo's braid in his mouth to keep him from listing every great thing about his gundam. Even the stonic pilots showed some mirth as they watched their normally peacemaking comrade do something that Wufei and Heero would do. Serena shook her head as she opened the door to leave not really wanting to listen to Duo complain about Quatre turning to the side of dullness and evil. Duo glared at Quatre before turning to look at the others. Sending them a smile he ran out of the room to try and make amends with Serena.

"Quatre, I never knew you had it in you." Mina laughed as she hugged him.

"I think it's because he's spending to much time around Mina." Raye whispered to Wufei before the two of them left for their room. Wufei smirked as he walked past a blushing Quatre. Trowa was trying, with the help of Lita, to get Mina off of Quatre before he invented new shades of red. Heero smirked as he place a chase kiss on Hotaru's lips before departing for his room.
