Wiccachic: moshi moshi, minna-san!! Sorry for the delay in updating, but I haven't been on the computer in a few days-_-b. To let ya'll know, Eric is Wufei's boy toy and he's the one who was trying to commit sudicid. Sorry if I didn't make that clear. He also belongs to Abby and Kenny, totally not mine^_^\/. Time to get to the story now!!! OH ::glomps everyone:: thanks so much for the reviews!!! ::snuggles:: and I own nothing….cept maybe Duo….::gets death glare from Heero:: alright fine! Not even Duo….tho that could be fun…

Duo woke only a few minutes after his dream with his head pillowed on Heero's chest. It wasn't the worst way to wake up, and he snuggled closer. Heero grunted and tightened his arms before burying his nose in Duo's hair. The braided boy stiffened when he woke completely and blushed, praying that Heero wouldn't wake up. He inched down Heero's body slowly, millimeter by nano-milimeter. Heero grunted and tightened his arms causing Duo to stop suddenly. He waited breathlessly till the brunette stilled before trying to move again. Heero let out a sigh and petted him softly. "Where are you going, baka?"

"I, uh, have to, uh…"

"I'm warm and comfortable, so if it is not dire, don't move." Heero's voice was husky with sleep, and he tightened his hold on Duo.

"Well…it's not really important…"

"Than go back to sleep."

Duo lay there for a few minutes, eyes wide open and sleep the farthest thing from his mind. Heero was here, in his arms, where he was meant to be, and the messy haired pilot had no idea of Duo's feelings. He rubbed his cheek against the firm chest beneath him and squeezed his eyes shut. This was not happening to him. He couldn't be there with Heero's arms wrapped around him, sleeping like a baby. He gently kissed the skin where his cheek rested, and waited, wondering if Heero was awake. When the body didn't move, he moved his lips to the place where both of his pecs met gently kissing the spot there. He moved his lips over Heero's chest, trying to kiss every available inch of flesh. He soon found the dip between the shoulder and throat and stroked it lightly with his tongue. Heero moved underneath him slightly, and he held back a gasp before laying back down, being as still as possible.

"Why'd you stop?" Heero murmured sleepily.

"Wha-?" Duo looked up to see Heero's slightly open eyes.

"I was quite enjoying myself, you can continue, if you want." Heero put his hands behind his head and closed his eyes again. Duo didn't think he could blush any harder and sat up quickly, preparing to leave the bed. Heero's hand landed on his shoulder, preventing his escape. "Where are you going?"

"Don't try and humor me, Heero, I'm embarrassed enough as it is." Duo tried to throw off Heero's hand, but the blue eyed boy sat up and wrapped his arms around the violet eyed one.

"I'm not." Heero said seriously. He let his hand trail down Duo's half undone braid. "If you only knew how long I have wanted you to do just what you did…"

"What are you talking about?" Duo turned so that he could meet Heero's eyes in the darkness.

Heero cupped Duo's face in his hands and did something that Duo had never really seen him do. He smiled. A gently, kind, loving smile. "I've wanted you since the first time I laid eyes on you, Duo."

"No you haven't…I shot you remember?"

"Yeah, but I thought you looked sexy while doing it."

"But what about Releena?"

"What about her?"

"I thought you were in love with her."

Heero frowned slightly and ran his thumb over Duo's cheekbone. "No, koi. Never. I have just taken it upon myself to protect her." his eyes darkened slightly. "The people needed a leader. They choose her and so I would protect her."

Duo grinned with all his teeth and threw his arms around Heero's neck. "Really? Do you really mean this?"

"Yes." Heero looked a little doubtful for a moment. "Do…you feel the same?" he asked, heart on his sleeve.

"Ever since the first time you threatened to kill me and never followed through with it."

"Good." Heero closed his eyes slightly and bent his head, capturing Duo's lips with his own. Duo leaned into him happily, finally content with his world.

Releena stood outside of Heero's room, glass of water shaking in her hand slightly. Her eyes flashed with anger, and she clenched her fists tight. How dare Heero Yuy throw her over for some guy. She stomped all the way back to his bedroom, and climbed under the covers. She was wrapped in two slender arms and she sighed. "He told him he loved him, Dorothy." She whispered.

"I am sorry, Releena, but I'm still not sure why you want him. You have me after all."

"It's a matter of principal. He doesn't know that he can't have me…so why doesn't he try?"

"If you want him, I will make sure he is yours completely, Your majesty." Dorothy murmured before pushing Releena's hair back and gently licking her throat. "Now we have more pressing business to attend to." Releena giggled.

Duo woke the next morning in a state of euphoria. Last night, Heero had confessed that he loved him. Heero loved him. He smiled dreamily and snuggled deeper into the blankets. Heero was already up, having given him a good morning kiss and then going down for breakfast. Duo remembered their first explosive kiss and then much unsatisfaction. Heero had calmly said that they weren't ready for the next step, and then held him for the rest of the night. Very romantic and sweet, but not what he wanted. He growled softly before rolling over and getting out of the bed. He dressed quickly and then flew down the stairs, wanting to help Heero with breakfast. He ran into the kitchen and ran to his love, wrapping his arms around his waist and squeezing tightly. "Good morning!" he chirped happily.

Heero grunted, not quite able to his the smile in his eyes. "Morning."

"What's for breakfast?" He rubbed his stomach. "I'm starved!"

Heero leaned over and kissed Duo lightly on the tip of his nose. "Baka." he whispered fondly. Duo simply grinned.

"No, I'm serious.."

Releena watched as the Duo cooed and held and practically painted himself onto Heero and clenched her teeth. It was so annoying. Dorothy came up behind her and lightly rested her hands on Releena's shoulders. "Everything is ready, Releena." she said quietly.

"Excellent." She couldn't wait to see Duo have his comeuppance.
