Fight From the Heart
Round 4 - The Final Fight
~*~*~*~*~
Engine screaming murder Heero pulled up short of the Peacecraft mansion, God please don't let
me be too late... Wufei close at his heels Heero ran hell bent for the front door. One swift kick
knocked the door from it's moorings sending it skidding across the marble entry hall only to have
it come to a halt at Relena's feet.
Shock registered on Relena's face as she turned her attention away from the fight in the living
room. Growling Heero didn't stop till he was face to face with the blonde bitch. Instinctively
Relena coward, whimpering she pointed to the living where Mr. Peacecraft stood poised to slam
the fire shovel at Duo once more.
Crying out with rage Heero tackled the older man to the floor, as Wufei rushed to the prone body
of the boy. Hauling Peacecraft up by the collar Heero smashed his fist into the man's face over
and over...
Wufei quickly checked Duo for a pule, and was relieved to find one as faint as it was. "Heero,"
the Chinese boy called. Oblivious Heero continued to punch at Mr. Peacecraft's face which now
looked like raw hamburger. "Heero!" Wufei yelled, "We got to get him to a hospital now!" That
got Heero's attention damn fast, dropping the unconscious man Heero ran scooping Duo into his
arms.
Heero was worried his angel looked so pale and wan; he had to live Heero wouldn't let him die.
Blowing past Relena, Wufei ran first to the car keys in hand while Heero cradled Duo gently
followed slower.
Relena never said a word as the boys left as suddenly as they came taking that bastard adopted
brother of hers. She never even went to help her father lying beaten on the floor...
~*~*~*~*~*~
"Someone help us!" Still holding the barley breathing Duo, Heero and Wufei tore through the
emergency room in search pf help. The receptionist took one look at the beaten boy and paged for
a gurney. Admist the sudden commotion around him Heero somehow got Duo on the gurney as
the doctors and nurses screeched orders back and forth. Trying to follow as they wheeled his love
away Heero was stopped by one of the interns. "Sorry sir we can't let you go in, well let you
know..." the man in blue scrubs headed in the direction the chaos had taken.
Gripping both sides of his head Heero's breathe hissed through his teeth in angry frustration. He
wanted to go back and beat that bastard adopted father of Duo's till the man would never move
again. Looking around he spotted Wufei talking to the receptionist giving the sever looking lady
information on where they had found Duo. The rest of the waiting room was staring at him.
Looking down Heero realised he was still not only shoeless but he was shirtless as well. The
blood coating his chest didn't help much. Ignoring gawkiers Heero stared at the bandages
wrapped around his knuckles the once white material was stained red... from his blood, for that
bastards blood... from Duo's blood.
An angry cry was all the warning the worker in the hospital had before Heero made a dent in the
wall. Plaster broke as the impact of the fist caused the wall it buckle inwards. Panting hard Heero
looked around again. 'Damn it Duo! If you die I... I... don't know what to do...'
~*~*~*~*~*~
"Mr. Yuy, Mr. Chang?" Heero looked up at the doctor in front of him. Quickly both he and
Wufei jumped to their feet, they'd been in the hospital almost 5 hours waiting for word on Duo.
Surprisingly Wufei had decided to stay and wait also, something about Duo and the way the boys
had found him seemed to touch a cord deep within the Chinese boy.
"I'm happy to say that Mr. Maxwell is in a stable condition, but..." the doctor fairly young found
himself looking into an pair of icy blue eyes, and equally icy onyx ones. "But what?" the
question was growled from the shirtless teen with the blue eyes. "But... we're not sure when he'll
wake up..." Nodding sharply Heero's face betrayed none of his distress. "May we see him?" the
doctor nodded, motioning for the pair to follow him.
They were lead to a small single room located just outside the ward. Heero was distressed to see
Duo looking stalk against the blindly white sheets on the bed. Machines beeped in the
background monitoring heart rate, and breathing. The slim chest of his lover fell in perfect time
with the dammed machine. Swallowing his distress Heero pulled up the single chair in the room,
settling himself beside Duo.
Sensing Heero's need to be alone Wufei waited outside the door, guarding against those who
would seek to interrupt his friend and brother. Heero didn't even notice he was alone in the
room, as he carefully brought the single pale hand in contact with his face. Gently kissing the
pale fingers he tried not to think of what this ment. Would his Duo ever wake up? The doctors
had said he'd be alright but... taking a shuddering sigh Heero refused to cry, he wouldn't let them
take Duo from him... he just couldn't...
~*~*~*~*~*~
Heero could barley stay awake as the Biology teacher continued her endless droning about plants.
Trowa looked at his friend in concern, Heero looked terrible. Duo had been in the hospital for
two weeks now and Heero had been fighting in the ring every other day. Black eye's, stiches,
bandages were paraded through every day, and the body count of KO's for Heero grew larger.
"Heero... Heero..." Trowa gently shook Heero, class had ended and it was lunch time, "Heero..."
still no response from the rather sorry looking boy. "HEERO!" jerking awake from a rather
pleasant dream in the arms of Duo, Heero found himself staring into green eyes; not violet.
"Trowa?" he queried groggily, "Class in over man, lunch" nodding Heero slowly gathered his
books. Still slightly unsettled Trowa stared at the larger boy, "Heero what is it? I mean your
always tired during class you've been fighting almost everyday... What the hell is wrong?"
Absolute silence reined as Heero froze, eyes unfocused he stared past Trowa. "I'll tell you
Trowa... you know Duo's in the hospital right?" Trowa nodded silently everyone did it was
common knowledge; though the way orphan boy ended up there was anther matter all together.
"Well he's been in a coma for two weeks now and..." staring into clear blue eyes Trowa silently
urged the other teen on. "And the... I can't... I don't... Trowa you know when I asked you why
you fight?" not waiting for an answer Heero continued, "I fight Trowa for the one I love most in
this world".
Nodding in understanding, "You fight Heero, from the heart..." smiling the emerald eyes boy
slung an arm around Heero's shoulders, "So how is Duo doing?" making their away to the
cafeteria Heero told Trowa about the nights he'd spent in the hospital watching over his beloved,
also his surprise on the role Wufei had taken on looking after Duo.
"...Yeah what a bitch I mean I can't believe she would do that to Duo..." Hero halted abruptly
when he heard the conversation. Two 11th graders were deep in discussion, both were girls and
both seemed rather pissed. "The RP3 are total bitches!" both girls nodded in unison the vote was
unanimous. "Excuse me?" Heero looked to the girls, "I hate to interrupt but what have you
heard?" the two girls looked at each other was this hottie really talking to them?
"Well I guess so..." Heero smiled encouragingly "Well at the dance a couple of weeks ago
we say that totally disgusting JJ try to get Duo. I mean the baka! He was all thinking he was so
good but everyone there knew he was bombed out of his mind!" nodding Heero held his patients
just barley. "After that we heard that the whole thing was all a plot". The taller nodded allowing
the smaller one to take up the explanation.
"Then we were in the washroom and we heard Dorothy and Hilde talking about how Relena was
sleeping with JJ. She apparently was using him to hurt Duo real bad..." the taller shook her head
"Your putting it a little to delicate, what she really wanted to do was totally ruin Duo's rep in the
school! In short she wanted JJ to rape him". Shaking with rage Heero thanked the girls before
stalking towards the cafe. Trowa stunned followed. The girls shrugged before resuming their
conversation "What a hottie..." the shorter one rolled her eyes man, there she goes again.
Heero slammed the caf doors wide open. It didn't take him long to spot the bastard as always
surrounded by his cronies. Face devoid of emotion Heero walked up to the group, and without a
single word planted his fist in JJ's still healing face. The football jock flew out of his chair and
landed with a thud on the wood floor. Trowing the chair aside Heero strode over to the groaning
figure, grabbing the boy by his collar the enraged boxer heaved the whimpering figure to his feet.
"Where is she?" blood poring from his nose JJ' begged Heero to leave him alone, "Please... no
more... she's not here she hasn't been for two weeks... she's in the hospital with her father...
please leave me alone!" With a disgusted growl Heero allowed the pitiful weeping figure to slid
to the floor.
"Heero Yuy report to the office... Heero Yuy report to the office immediately!" the loud speaker
caught the entire school's attention. Heero strode out past the silent onlookers, and a grim Trowa
holding a shaking Quatre close; never once did he look at JJ weeping on the floor, for from that
day on JJ would lose all respect in school.
Still shaking with suppressed rage Heero made his way to the office wondering if this had
anything to do with the fight. Entering the office, Heero prepared himself to once more be blasted
out by the vice-principle. "Mr. Yuy!" the high pitched wine of the secretary made the poor boy
wince, barley resisting the urge to cover his ears Heero tried to smile, "Why Mrs. Winston how
are you today?" blushing the little old white haired lady giggled, "Oh you! Anyway you were
called because someone by the name of Wufei called..." looking up Mrs. Winston stared at Heero
who seemed to forget how his mouth worked. "Well this boy gave me a message... and a rather
strange one at that... all he said was 'He's awake'. Make any sense to you?" Looking up Mrs.
Winston found herself alone, "Well I guess it must have," she grinned before returning to her
typing.
Heero was riding hell for lather towards the hospital ignoring red lights and cars alike. 10
minutes later he pulled up in front of the white building.
~*~*~*~*~*~
Duo groaned causing Wufei who'd been sitting close by to jump out of his chair, "Nurse!" he
called "Nurse!" Turing back to the boy on the bed Wufei saw Duo's wide eyed look of horror.
The poor boy was choking on the tube rammed down his throat. Fortunately the nurses arrived in
time to remove the tube while Wufei called Heero's school on the cell.
Finished the two elderly nurses left giggling as Duo huskily thanked them for there troubles.
Resuming his seat Wufei studied the long haired boy on the bed intently, he was trying to figure
out just what it was that Heero loved about him. "Hello..." the soft thickly accented voiced
surprised the Chinese man, Duo sounded Irish... "Hello Duo..." Wufei replied equally softly. The
wide eyed teen widened his eyes further as the unknown man beside him spoke his name.
"Why... Why am I here?"
Wufei leaned forward in his chair as he explained to Duo exactly who he was, and what had
happened that night. Duo listened sadly as Wufei told him the chain of events, but the normally
cheerful boy was happy to hear that Heero was most defiantly on his way. "He's been moping all
this time," Wufei lemented "Can't get him to do any-" all at once the door was rebounding off
the wall and an a Heero shaped figure stood in the doorway panting after his mad dash up the
stairs.
"Heero?" Duo whispered, covering the distance between the entrance and bed Heero immediately
grasped Duo's hand tightly. Relief such as he'd never felt before washed over the messy haired
fighter as he looked Duo over from head to toe. Sensing the couple needed a little private time
Wufei left silently smiling at Heero's brilliant smile.
Wanting to make sure that he really wasn't dreaming Heero slide onto the narrow hospital bed
pulling Duo into his arms. Tucking the smaller boys head under his chin Heero sighed, content to
stay like this forever; but there were questions yet to be answered. "I suppose Wufei told you
what happened..." Heero felt Duo nod slowly against his chest. "Duo there are things... I need to
know..." again came the silent nod. "How long?" Heero felt the boy in his arms begin to shake,
holding Duo tighter Heero waited for the answer patiently, "A- as long as I c-can remember..."
Duo chocked out.
Heero felt that blind helpless rage threatening to take over. Pushing his dark thoughts away the
boxer began to rub his beloveds back tenderly offering much needed comfort. "Why Duo?"
shaking harder Duo really didn't want to go back... he didn't want to remember the way his life
was; but Heero wanted to know and all to soon Duo found himself relating his past, and through
the tears and te shaking Heero held him tight offering quite strength.
Finished and completely exhausted Duo didn't even look up when the doctor entered, thankfully
Heero didn't move either. Sleepily Duo heard the man leave again before Heero shook him
slightly, "Duo koi we can go home now..." nodding but not understanding Duo cuddled closer
not wanting to be away from the others warmth. Heero smiled at his lovers antics and held him
tight as a nurses appeared to remove the IV, Duo vaguely felt the needle being removed before he
was propped up. Blinking owlishly Duo felt Heero tug the hospital gown off before the little one
could muster up the energy to be shy. Removing his shirt Heero pulled it over the figure seated
on the bed, cursing all the while that Duo had nothing else to wear; as the clothing he'd arrived in
was...
Thankfully Wufei solved the problem by returning with a blanket. Heero bundled the dozing Duo
before cradling the light load to his chest. Nodding the blue eyed teen followed Wufei out and to
the car waiting below.
There was no way in hell Duo was ever going back to the Peacecraft place again. He was going
to stay at the dojo and become, Heero hoped part of the family. Duo slept all the way home
curled in his love's lap and didn't even waken when he was deposited softly on Heero's bed.
Stripping quickly Heero joined the bundle in the bed pulling the softly snoring youth securely
into his embrace. Happily the couple snuggled close causing an equally tired Heero to slip into
sleep... but not before he sent a feverent prayer of thanks for the return of his love.
~*~*~*~*~*~
Heero woke slowly, blinking sleep out of his eyes he recalled yesterday's events and smiled. Duo
was a comforting weight of his chest, mumbling incoherently the boy in question shifted slightly
wringing a moan from the teen beneath him. Heero shifted out from beneath Duo trying to calm
himself, this was not the time the braided angel was still a little weak on his pins to be doing
'that' sort of thing. Still... sighing regretfully Heero gathered so fresh cloths before disappearing
into the washroom.
15 minutes later a still slightly damp Heero chuckled softly as his lover continued to sleep.
Deciding that the boy need a more rest the still grinning Heero left for school.
~*~*~*~*~*~
"Yo Heero!!" Trowa waved a hand wildly in front of Heero's face, dazed blue eyes focussed on
the flailing appendage "Mmm?" chuckling the green eyed boy slung an arm around his friend's
shoulders. "A say l'amour..." Heero couldn't argue he just shrugged and made his way to forth
period. One more class and he was home to Duo...
~*~*~*~*~*~*~
Duo woke late in the afternoon feeling much better. Noting Heero's absence he deduced that
today was school, then grinned when he realized how thoughtful his love was. Sitting up the long
haired boy stretched before he spotted the note on the pillow next to him. Smiling softly he read
the messy handwriting:
Duo,
Gone to school, make yourself at home be back later.
Love,
Heero
Duo stoped breathing, love...Heero... Heero loved him? Frowning in puzzlement he decided that
this needed to be cleared up. But now was not the time... right now he really needed to wash his
hair. Frowning is disgust Duo grabbed some of Heero's cloths hoping he wouldn't mind, then
proceed to lock himself in the washroom.
Duo idly stared in the mirror as he brushed his hair, nothing about him had changed. There were
no scars... he looked the same. Wufei had told him while he'd been in coma for two weeks his
wounds had healed, but wounds ran deeper then the flesh. Dividing his hair into three parts he
deftly plated the mass of chestnut locks forming them into the familiar braid. Shivering he
quickly pulled on the borrowed apparel snorting as the jeans refused to stay on and the t-shirt
reached almost to his knees. Ok, Heero wasn't that big! Henti thoughts suddenly came to mind
and Duo blushed a bright red, ok maybe Heero was big...
Exiting the washroom Duo procured a belt to secure his falling pants in place. Feeling much
better he decided it was time to find some food as his tummy growled loudly. Locating the
kitchen Duo nearly squealed with delight at the array of cooking things there. Now he could
defiantly cook for Heero! Looking at the clock he nodded decisively Heero would be home in
half an hour, time to get to work...
~*~*~*~*~*~*~
Heero hurried home right after school eager to see Duo, and tell him the good news. Screeching
to a halt in the driveway the blue eyed boy ran inside, only to come up short in the doorway. It
was the smell that nearly knocked the wind out of Heero. It was someone cooking?! Silently
Heero tiptoed into the kitchen only to see his angel busily stirring a pot on the stove humming to
himself.
Smiling mischievously Heero came up behind the vision wrapping his arms tightly around a slim
waist. Gasping Duo nearly dropped his spoon, ready he tear away from the unexpected embrace
he paused as a very familiar voice rumbled in his ear, "Smells good..." sighing happily Duo
leaned back into the warm embrace. "Mmm..." unable to resist Heero gently kissed the pale neck
and shoulder exposed by the overly large shirt, "Feeling better?" he asked between kisses.
Duo's hand quite stirring as sensations from the kisses temporarily shut his mind down, "Yes..."
Duo moaned as the teasing tongue found a sensitive spot beneath his ear. Chuckling softy Heero
sucked hard leaving a definite hickey just below Duo's jaw.
"Ahh..." Heero turned his head in the direction of the rather strangled noise, then laughed as he
saw a very red Wufei holding his nose. Still grinning he planted one more wet kiss on the
delectable neck before releasing an equally red Duo. "Do you guys want something to eat?"
Heero watched Wufei hold a Kleenex to his nose to stanch the blood flow, "Yes Duo-koi..." he
replied as an irritated black haired teen glared at him.
Sitting at the small kitchen table the two adopted brothers watched as Duo placed plate after plate
of delicious smelling food before them. Smiling Duo joined the pair as he encouraged them to
eat, Heero didn't need to be told twice. All the youths dug in with gusto, praising Duo for an
angel which left a rather embarrassed Duo.
Soon the 'snack' was done and a still blushing Duo returned to making dinner. The other two
cleaned up the plates. "Duo I got good news for you!" Heero suddenly remembered why he'd
been so anxious to see the boy. "I talked to your English teacher today and he want's you back as
soon as possible he still wants you for Juliet." The look of radiant joy was very nearly the
undoing of Heero, well that and the fact Duo threw himself into his arms. "Really!?" Heero
nodded pleased he could make his angel smile. "Hai.."
~*~*~*~*~*~*~
The days began to take on a pattern, at home Duo would always cook for the three of them,
making lunches and breakfasts as well. Heero began to suspect that Wufei was falling in love
with his koi's cooking. But Heero really couldn't blame him, it seemed every one the boy met
fell in love with him. At school though... it was a common thing to see both Heero and Duo
together, making out or just cuddling they also seemed to have gathered a yaoi fan girl club that
loved make up excuses just to see them together.
Although he'd never said the words Duo soon realized that Heero loved him. In the way he
touched him, the way he looked at him... it was all so... well romantic. All except a certain
blonde bitch that just refused to quit. Relena had returned to school soon after Duo and since then
tensions had run high. The two never spoke, the plastic princess knowing better then to try and
confront her once brother in front of Heero. That was all about to end though as the silent battle
came to a head one day after school.
~*~*~*~*~*~*~
"... For I never saw true beauty till this night." Duo waited for his que the play was set to be
preformed in a week and he was nervous as hell. Heero and Wufei had promised to come and see
the production but... Duo really hoped he didn't screw it up. Adjusting his make shift dress the
budding Juliet stepped forward to recite his lines.
Everyone had noticed the change in Duo, he seemed happier more cheerful... especially when
Heero was around. Duo had been in many ways given a second chance in life and he was
determined to make the most of it. Even if he lived with a pair of crazy karate junkies, which
seemed to think it was the most natural thing in the world to have an all out fight during dinner.
"That's a wrap!" the director/ English teacher waved to the students smiling, "See you all the
same time tomorrow! And Duo... very well done!" blushing furiously Duo helped the costume
girl remove his still pinned together costume. The other actors waved to the star actor on their
way out, some where along the line people had begun to see Duo in a different light... the once
black balled boy now had friends.
Floating on cloud nine Duo stepped onto the now empty stage waiting for Heero to show up so
they could head home. Sighing in contentment Duo lifted his arms imagining the auditorium full
of people clapping and calling his name, wanting an encore... and Duo looking out into the sea of
faces to see those beautiful eyes he loved so much...
"Well, well... all alone are we?" Duo's fantasy's came to an abrupt halt as a voice he dreaded
called out. Turning slowly to his right violet eyes meet... "Relena". Duo gave a short nod
narrowing his eyes slightly, "What no hug for your sister? I'm hurt Duo..." Relena fake pouted.
"What the hell do you want?!" emotions high Duo's accent got very distinctive, "I don't want
you in my life Relena you messed it up once already". The synthetic bimbo walked forward high
heels clicking on the stage floor, silently she circled Duo taking in his new attire. Snug black
jeans, tight red turtleneck defining every lean muscle on his small frame. As much as Relena
hated to admitted it Duo was a definite hottie.
"Well Duo I just came to tell you that it's all over now. I'll take care of Heero so you can just
leave him..." unbeknownst to the two former siblings Heero had entered the auditorium, seeing
the bitch talking to Duo made his blood boil, she had no right! About to rush forward to aid his
love Heero halted in his tracks at Duo's next words.
" Yeah Relena I'll leave the man I love most in this world because you said so. Yeah sure and
you're a virgin!" amazingly Relena turned several nice looking shades of red before settling on
purple. "How... dare you!" she spat really pissed now. Duo calmly folded his arms matching her
glare for glare, Relena was thrown off balance usually by now Duo would be cowering in fear!
"Surprised Relena? You should be, normally I'd be on the floor whimpering by now. But as you
can see I'm still standing". Incedious Relena stared at the complete change wrought in the once
frail young man, "Yeah Relena I wouldn't defend my self, I wouldn't have said any thing to you.
But I've changed, I have someone who loves me and he doesn't hit me! Although he's never said
it I know he loves me and I love him!"
Heero stood frozen in shock unable to move an inch. Duo moved forward still intent on his
supposed ex-sister, " That's it Relena he taught me that I have value, I'm worth something and
it's not love when someone hits you. You would never understand, so used to getting your way...
all your looking for is a quick fuck and your on to the next one. Well I got news bitch Heero's
mine and there is no way in hell I'm ever letting him go!" millimetres from Relena, Duo smiled
"He's mine..." without hesitation the blonde girl slapped him cranking his head to the side.
Turning back to her Duo smiled again as re raised his fist. Relena wasn't given time to react as
the incoming fist cold-cocked her, later when she woke alone though she'd have a hell of a
shiner... and a moustache drawn in permanent marker as well as the words 'Ho Queen' scrawled
on her face.
Shaking his hand the braided youth gave a satisfied smirk before jumping at the sound of
applause. Blushing he turned to see Heero frozen halfway to the stage, clapping and crying...
"Heero!" Duo yelled in distress, leaping off the stage he bounded quickly to his lover. "Heero!
What's wrong? Are you al-" the questions were stopped as he was drawn into a warm embrace.
"Duo, did you mean all those things?" embarrassed at having sounded so sappy Duo nodded
shyly. "I'm... I'm sorry Duo I mean... Ai shiteru..." Heero pulled away pressing feather light
kisses to Duo's face, "Ai shiteru... Ai shiteru ...." was whispered interspersed with the kisses.
Confused Duo gently cupped his koi's face, "What does that mean Heero? You said it the first
night we... ummm..." laughing quietly Heero pulled the smaller figure close once more "It means
I love you Duo". Gasping happily Duo pulled away to look into blue eyes dark with emotion,
"Really?" nodding the tall fighter sighed "Hai..." laughing happily violet eyes glowed brightly
while small pale hands wiped away the tears, "I love you Heero".
Tilting his beloved's face Heero gently kissed his angel savouring the sweetness that was Duo,
moaning into Heero's mouth Duo granted his lover access as there tongues duelled and fingers
played over each others skin. Soon things got a little hot and heavy and before either of them
made a total mess of there pants Heero scooping Duo up racing to his bike. Giggling the
mischievous long haired teen tormented Heero with soft kisses and licks to his neck. The messy
haired teen raced home...
~*~*~*~*~*~*~
"Ahh... Mr. Peacecraft, what can I do for you today?" Dr. J leaned back in his desk chair. A
rather bruised man sat before him, "Yuy". Arching an eyebrow the doctor nodded thoughtful,
"You must mean Heero, the 'Demon'" J chuckled "He's making quite the stir, 20 fights all KO's
and not a lost yet..." Mr. Peacecraft nodded, "I want him gone?"
The man behind the desk shook his head smiling ruefully, " Why would I want to ruin my prize
fight-" his sentence was cut off as a large briefcase containing millions was thrust at him. "3.7
million and I want him disabled..." J nodded as Mr. Peacecraft stood, "Pleasure doing business
with you..." and with that the man was gone.
Frowning Dr. J tapped his fingers idly on the suitcase lid, how was he going to do this and still
make more money... suddenly it came to him in a flash. "Treize get your ass in here!" J yelled
into the intercom, no sooner then he'd turned the machine off as the ginger haired bookie
appeared. "Yes sir?" J smiled, "Hows are second best fighter Trowa doing..."
~*~*~*~*~*~*~
"Arms up.. That's it now power house!" Zechs stood behind Heero calling out instructions as the
boy pummelling a large bag. "Ok now..." Heero listened with half an ear he was thinking about
Duo at home probably making dinner... sighing he missed the chuckling comming from the older
man trying to tell him something, "Troubles?" the blue eyed fighter shoot his head "No just
tired..." Zechs leered leechously before giving over and hooting with laughter. Heero was about
to give him the one two when he heard a cry from the sparing ring.
Looking over to the sparring ring Heero saw Trowa fall to the mat... and not move. Everyone
rushed forward at once, Heero helped several of the other fighters carry his unconscious friend to
the small dirty doctors office in the back room. The doctor checked him over before lighting up
his cigarette, "Well?" Heero looked at the short pudgy man with thick wire rimmed glasses.
"Looks like an aneurism... one more hit to the head and he could die..." Trowa looked at the man
expressionsly urging him to continue, "No fighting for 6 weeks".
The man left Heero and Trowa alone, "Well Heero... looks like I'm down and out". Heero sat
beside his friend, "Rest, look after yourself I know Quatre would be heart broken if anything
happened to you ya know?" Nodding Trowa punched Heero playfully in the arm, "Speaking of
which you told Duo yet where you disappear to almost every night?" shaking his head Heero
stared at the wall "Haven't found the right moment yet..." Trowa patted him on the back, "You
gotta do it man, he's not stupid he'll figure it out eventually..." Heero nodded "That's what I'm
so afraid of..."
~*~*~*~*~*~*~
Heero opened the door quietly, exhausted he stumbled into the kitchen only to smile when he
saw his dinner and a note waiting for him. Wolfing down his food the boxer hastily showered
before entering his and Duo's room wearing nothing but a towel. It was obvious Duo had been
waiting for him the reading lamp was still on and a book lay open beside he sleeping figure.
Softly smiling Heero picked up the book and turned out the lights before discarding his towel and
joining Duo in bed.
Pulling the small teen close Heero content began to doze when a soft voice brought him back,
"Why Heero?" the musical voice with a mystic lithe was choked with sadness, "Is.. Is I-it me?"
Heero squeezed Duo tight enough to cause the other to squeak, "No love... never you it's me..."
turning to face Heero the pale teen tried to understand. "I can't tell you Duo... but trust me ok?
Someday I'll explain it all..." Duo hugged him close "I trust you with my life". The words were
so simple yet Heero believe them as if they were a holy text. Pressing a soft kiss to surprised lips
Duo snuggled close once more before falling asleep.
Heero stayed awake much longer thinking about what Duo had said, he trusted him... "I hope you
won't regret saying that Duo..."
~*~*~*~*~*~*~
"I'm going out..." Heero stepped into his shoes before turning to face Duo and Wufei. Both teens
looked worried, Heero hastened to assure them, "I'll be back soon promise". He gave Duo a
quick peck on the cheek before disappearing out the door.
Frowning Duo hesitated, "Here" Wufei tossed him the car keys, "Find out where he's going off
to. Don't worry I'll look after things at this end of things". Smiling gratefully Duo gave the
Chinese boy a hung before he two vanished. Smiling Wufei headed back to the dojo to get ready
for class, "Good luck you two..."
~*~*~*~*~*~*~
"What the hell?" Heero had entered the stadium in time to see EnEicko take a hard hit to the
head. Not pausing he headed for Treize's office. "What the hell is going on Treize?" Heero
kicked the door in revelling the man counting money. "What?" Heero snorted, "Why the hell is
EnEicko in the ring? I was supposed to fight him!" Treize shook his head, "New plan J arranged
a new fight winner takes all 22 grand..." cold blue eyes narrowed, "Where's the damn catch?" the
ginger haired man shook his head, "So untrusting... why it's you and Barton..." with a roar of
rage the furious teen ran to the change rooms.
Sure enough there was Trowa dressed and ready to fight, " I won't fight you!" Heero threw his
bag away and stared at his friend. "The hell you won't!" Trowa yelled back, "This in my chance
Heero, J says if I win this he'll take me pro". Both fighters stared at each other hard, "Don't mess
with this Heero.. It's my chance, my chance to prove myself..." the two continued to stare, " I
won't fight you..."
~*~*~*~*~*~*~
Duo looked around at the crowed arena, people of every type lines the seats smoke and booze
heavy in the air. The crowd was yelling for blood, as one of the present fighters in the ring fell to
the mat and didn't get up again. Suddenly Duo felt a strange arm wrap itself around his
shoulders, "Hey sweet thing what are you doing here?" Treize looked down at the young man
who could only be Duo Maxwell. "Come on this was honey we can get a better view of the
action..." he steered a relucent Duo towards the front row.
"Well Dr. J look who we got here!" J turned looking Duo over once, before gesturing for the boy
to sit. "Just in time, your lover is about to get in the ring". Duo watched as Heero face set grimly
entered the ring on one side and on the other... "Trowa!" he gasped, "Oh god..."
~*~*~*~*~*~*~
Heero stared across the ring at Trowa as his pointed played to the crowd, "Listen kid... this is
your show, show them your fight". Nodding Heero accepted his mouth guard before going out
and knocking gloves with his friend. "Nice clean fight gentlemen", the ref sent them to their
corners, to wait for the bell.
Trowa was first out heading forward, he also landed the first punch... and the second. Heero
made no move to black he just stood there allowing the blows to come. Frustrated Trowa
punched him hard in the face sending him to the mat. Rising slightly Heero stared at Trowa, "Get
up!" slowly Heero stood the crowd booed they wanted a fight. The bell went again as the first
round ended.
Returning to his corner Heero gratefully accepted the water before spitting it out in the bucket.
Treize appeared out of now where, "Get the hell out of here," Zechs growled at the man. Treize
merely pointed, the platinum haired corner man nudged the stoic boy "I think you better look
kid..." turning slightly Heero's eyes widened as J threw an arm around Duo and waved. Large
violet eyes looked at him apologetically. "Feel like fighting now?" Treize asked.
The bell rang again and the two competitors faced off again, this time Heero did fight going for
the body only. Clinching Heero pushed Trowa away, "Don't do this! I won't fight you but if I
don't J's gonna hurt Duo". Trowa raised his mitts hitting Heero in the face hard, head snapping
back Heero looked back at Trowa dispassionately, "Fight me! Fight me Heero!" again Trowa
lashed out with a killer left. Knocking Heero to his knees the green eyed boy froze in place
panting heavily, the ref came forward to count but stopped abruptly when he saw the look on
Heero's face.
Standing Heero faced Trowa blood ran from a cut above his eye dyeing his face red. "Well come
on get your money!" The crowd was mad they threw paper and cups into the ring trying to get the
fighters to go. "If your gonna do it do it now!" Trowa raised his fist... then lowered it. "Damn
you..." spitting out his mouth guard the fighter stared at Heero, "Damn you to hell". Then turned
and walked back to his corner amid the jeers from the crowd.
Duo sat in the audience staring up his lover trying not to cry, J didn't take it so easily. Getting
into the ring the doctor grabbed Trowa, "Go over there and knock him out!" Trowa shook his
head, "What?" J was mad, "I said no J I ain't working for you any more!" growling J punched
Trowa hard in the head sending the boy over the roped and into the crowd. "Trowa no!" leaping
over out of the ring Heero ran to his friend. Men appeared and the unconscious teen was carried
out of the arena.
J stood in the ring, "Sorry folks but your money will be returned and we apologize", "J I want
you!" racing into the ring Heero stood face to face with the man who not only threatened the love
of his life but his friend as well, "I want you J right here right now". Snorting the Doc raised an
eyebrow, "What's in it for me?" unmindful of the blood Heero wiped his face, "Me". J smiled, "I
get it you win and I let you and your boyfriend go free. But if- when I win your mine!" Heero
nodded and J laughed.
~*~*~*~*~*~*~
"Ladies and gentlemen, for the first time in this arena please welcome World Heavyweight
Champion, Dr. J!" The crowed roared and Heero stood in his corner not moving a muscle.
Playing to the people J came in laughing and dancing around. It wasn't until he held his hands up
that Heero realised he wasn't wearing boxing gloves. Turning to Zechs he held out his hands,
"Cut them off..." his cut man gave him an odd look, "Cut them off!" nodding in compliance he
snipped the gloves and tape off.
The bell sounded with out the fighters shaking. Heero was the first to strike aiming at J's face he
put force behind his hit only to hit the older man on the top of the head; and it hurt like hell.
Heero struck out again... and then a third time before his hand fell to his side. Zechs cursed in the
corner, "Damn it! Kid broke his hand..."
Heero hissed through his teeth holding his hand, "Top of the head Heero, hardest part of the
body..." this time J hit. It soon became apparent that with one hand out of action Heero wasn't
doing so well. J landed hit after hit, to the head, the body the legs. Duo covered his mouth trying
not to cry out for the madness to end. A particularly hard hit sent Heero out of the ring into some
of the crowd. Barley aware of what was going on Heero was rolled back into the ring by the
spectators. Face down on the mat he panted for breath, J waved to the audience. "1.....2.....3..
Come on kid.... 4.....5.." the ref whispered to Heero trying to get him up again.
Thinking of Duo he had to win so he'd be safe, and of Trowa, the fighter heaved himself to his
feet . "Should have stayed down kid..." J rushed forward about to plant a fist in his face, when
Heero turned the tables. Bowing his head Heero manurved J into punching the top of his head
effectively breaking the other mans fingers. "Come on J, hardest part of the body!"
Roaring in rage J swung wildly, but Heero ducked out of reach; while landing a punishing blow
to the back. Standing again J snarling lunged, no one saw Heero's 'broken' hand curl into a fist...
the last hit ended the fight as J fell to the mat with KO'd and broken noised.
Laughing Zechs ran into the ring, "Yeah did it kid! You nailed him!" Heero grinned as well as he
could with a swollen face, "Fight form the heart, Zechs!" still grinning he leap out of the ring,
coming face to face with Duo. "Heero..." wrapping his arms tightly around Heero, Duo held fast,
so happy that his love was still alive. "Let's get the hell out of here..." nodding the couple made
there way to the exit. Near the back stood Trowa, "You did it Heero..." staring solemnly at one
anther they clasped hands before pulling each other in a one armed embrace.
Grasping Duo's hand once more Heero made all hate to get away, "You know I have a feeling
Wufei isn't going to believe this..." Heero snorted then winced when he realized that hurt. "Don't
worry I'll make you forget about all the hurt..." Duo whispered in a seductive purr. Heero was
felling better already.
~*~*~*~*~*~*~
"Will you just sit!" Heero exasperated pulled am irritated Wufei to his seat, "But I can't see!"
rolling his eyes Heero hit him upside the head. "Baka! There's nothing to see yet. Besides your
acting like a 5 year old". Huffing the black haired teen slumped in his seat muttering about
injustices.
"Two houses both alike in dignity in fair Verona where we lay our scene..." Heero clamped a
hand on Wufei's mouth. "Shhh... starting". For the next two hours the two teens sat enthralled,
Wufei liking the Romeo and Heero thinking the Juliet was an angel in the flesh. Duo had his hair
down, and it was impossible to tell he was a boy. Proud of his lover Heero wanted to stand up
before all these teachers and parents, and students and shout to the whole world that Duo was his.
"For never was there a tale of more woe, then that of Juliet and her fair Romeo". The play ended
and the applause was thunderous. As the players returned for there bows the applause and cat
calls was at a fair volume. But when Duo returned to take his bow Heero along with the rest of
the audience was on there feet. The only standing ovation of the night. Blushing becomingly Duo
bowed as the curtain closed.
The house lights returned, and the brothers were swept into the mingling crowd. The people and
actors had gathered in the school foray to rave about the success of the play. Looking for a
glimpse of purple eyes Heero soon spotted his koi come running to the top of the stairs leading
down to the foray. "Heero!" Duo flushed with success didn't stop... but Heero knew what was
going to happen.
Moving forward he planted his feet, "3...2...1.." he muttered and sure enough Duo hit the second
step and lost his footing. Heero vaugly heard gasps comming from the people behind him, but he
was only focussed on Duo. Easily catching his rather klutzy lover Heero grinned as he heard the
beautiful creature giggle, "For a second I really did feel like I was and angel". Holding Duo close
he whispered softly in his koi's ear, "You're my angel..." pinking slightly Duo pulled Heero
down for a long sweet kiss.
So wrapped up in each other they never herd the applause behind them, at least not until they had
to pull away before things really got out of hand. "Ai shiteru Heero," Heero nuzzled Duo's nose,
"I love you Duo..." quickly Heero turned still holding Duo, stride purposeful he headed out the
doors, "Hey were are you going with my Juliet!?" the director cried. Grinning Heero looked over
his shoulder, "Home to my castle!"
Duo laughed merrily as Heero drove them home one his bike, "Come on Juliet I'll show you
things Romeo forgot to mention!" The two lovers roared off into the night content in each other's
love, for they had found that the only true fight it that of the heart...

Fight From the Heart
Round 4 - The Final Fight
~*~*~*~*~
Engine screaming murder Heero pulled up short of the Peacecraft mansion, God please don't let
me be too late... Wufei close at his heels Heero ran hell bent for the front door. One swift kick
knocked the door from it's moorings sending it skidding across the marble entry hall only to have
it come to a halt at Relena's feet.
Shock registered on Relena's face as she turned her attention away from the fight in the living
room. Growling Heero didn't stop till he was face to face with the blonde bitch. Instinctively
Relena coward, whimpering she pointed to the living where Mr. Peacecraft stood poised to slam
the fire shovel at Duo once more.
Crying out with rage Heero tackled the older man to the floor, as Wufei rushed to the prone body
of the boy. Hauling Peacecraft up by the collar Heero smashed his fist into the man's face over
and over...
Wufei quickly checked Duo for a pule, and was relieved to find one as faint as it was. "Heero,"
the Chinese boy called. Oblivious Heero continued to punch at Mr. Peacecraft's face which now
looked like raw hamburger. "Heero!" Wufei yelled, "We got to get him to a hospital now!" That
got Heero's attention damn fast, dropping the unconscious man Heero ran scooping Duo into his
arms.
Heero was worried his angel looked so pale and wan; he had to live Heero wouldn't let him die.
Blowing past Relena, Wufei ran first to the car keys in hand while Heero cradled Duo gently
followed slower.
Relena never said a word as the boys left as suddenly as they came taking that bastard adopted
brother of hers. She never even went to help her father lying beaten on the floor...
~*~*~*~*~*~
"Someone help us!" Still holding the barley breathing Duo, Heero and Wufei tore through the
emergency room in search pf help. The receptionist took one look at the beaten boy and paged for
a gurney. Admist the sudden commotion around him Heero somehow got Duo on the gurney as
the doctors and nurses screeched orders back and forth. Trying to follow as they wheeled his love
away Heero was stopped by one of the interns. "Sorry sir we can't let you go in, well let you
know..." the man in blue scrubs headed in the direction the chaos had taken.
Gripping both sides of his head Heero's breathe hissed through his teeth in angry frustration. He
wanted to go back and beat that bastard adopted father of Duo's till the man would never move
again. Looking around he spotted Wufei talking to the receptionist giving the sever looking lady
information on where they had found Duo. The rest of the waiting room was staring at him.
Looking down Heero realised he was still not only shoeless but he was shirtless as well. The
blood coating his chest didn't help much. Ignoring gawkiers Heero stared at the bandages
wrapped around his knuckles the once white material was stained red... from his blood, for that
bastards blood... from Duo's blood.
An angry cry was all the warning the worker in the hospital had before Heero made a dent in the
wall. Plaster broke as the impact of the fist caused the wall it buckle inwards. Panting hard Heero
looked around again. 'Damn it Duo! If you die I... I... don't know what to do...'
~*~*~*~*~*~
"Mr. Yuy, Mr. Chang?" Heero looked up at the doctor in front of him. Quickly both he and
Wufei jumped to their feet, they'd been in the hospital almost 5 hours waiting for word on Duo.
Surprisingly Wufei had decided to stay and wait also, something about Duo and the way the boys
had found him seemed to touch a cord deep within the Chinese boy.
"I'm happy to say that Mr. Maxwell is in a stable condition, but..." the doctor fairly young found
himself looking into an pair of icy blue eyes, and equally icy onyx ones. "But what?" the
question was growled from the shirtless teen with the blue eyes. "But... we're not sure when he'll
wake up..." Nodding sharply Heero's face betrayed none of his distress. "May we see him?" the
doctor nodded, motioning for the pair to follow him.
They were lead to a small single room located just outside the ward. Heero was distressed to see
Duo looking stalk against the blindly white sheets on the bed. Machines beeped in the
background monitoring heart rate, and breathing. The slim chest of his lover fell in perfect time
with the dammed machine. Swallowing his distress Heero pulled up the single chair in the room,
settling himself beside Duo.
Sensing Heero's need to be alone Wufei waited outside the door, guarding against those who
would seek to interrupt his friend and brother. Heero didn't even notice he was alone in the
room, as he carefully brought the single pale hand in contact with his face. Gently kissing the
pale fingers he tried not to think of what this ment. Would his Duo ever wake up? The doctors
had said he'd be alright but... taking a shuddering sigh Heero refused to cry, he wouldn't let them
take Duo from him... he just couldn't...
~*~*~*~*~*~
Heero could barley stay awake as the Biology teacher continued her endless droning about plants.
Trowa looked at his friend in concern, Heero looked terrible. Duo had been in the hospital for
two weeks now and Heero had been fighting in the ring every other day. Black eye's, stiches,
bandages were paraded through every day, and the body count of KO's for Heero grew larger.
"Heero... Heero..." Trowa gently shook Heero, class had ended and it was lunch time, "Heero..."
still no response from the rather sorry looking boy. "HEERO!" jerking awake from a rather
pleasant dream in the arms of Duo, Heero found himself staring into green eyes; not violet.
"Trowa?" he queried groggily, "Class in over man, lunch" nodding Heero slowly gathered his
books. Still slightly unsettled Trowa stared at the larger boy, "Heero what is it? I mean your
always tired during class you've been fighting almost everyday... What the hell is wrong?"
Absolute silence reined as Heero froze, eyes unfocused he stared past Trowa. "I'll tell you
Trowa... you know Duo's in the hospital right?" Trowa nodded silently everyone did it was
common knowledge; though the way orphan boy ended up there was anther matter all together.
"Well he's been in a coma for two weeks now and..." staring into clear blue eyes Trowa silently
urged the other teen on. "And the... I can't... I don't... Trowa you know when I asked you why
you fight?" not waiting for an answer Heero continued, "I fight Trowa for the one I love most in
this world".
Nodding in understanding, "You fight Heero, from the heart..." smiling the emerald eyes boy
slung an arm around Heero's shoulders, "So how is Duo doing?" making their away to the
cafeteria Heero told Trowa about the nights he'd spent in the hospital watching over his beloved,
also his surprise on the role Wufei had taken on looking after Duo.
"...Yeah what a bitch I mean I can't believe she would do that to Duo..." Hero halted abruptly
when he heard the conversation. Two 11th graders were deep in discussion, both were girls and
both seemed rather pissed. "The RP3 are total bitches!" both girls nodded in unison the vote was
unanimous. "Excuse me?" Heero looked to the girls, "I hate to interrupt but what have you
heard?" the two girls looked at each other was this hottie really talking to them?
"Well I guess so..." Heero smiled encouragingly "Well at the dance a couple of weeks ago
we say that totally disgusting JJ try to get Duo. I mean the baka! He was all thinking he was so
good but everyone there knew he was bombed out of his mind!" nodding Heero held his patients
just barley. "After that we heard that the whole thing was all a plot". The taller nodded allowing
the smaller one to take up the explanation.
"Then we were in the washroom and we heard Dorothy and Hilde talking about how Relena was
sleeping with JJ. She apparently was using him to hurt Duo real bad..." the taller shook her head
"Your putting it a little to delicate, what she really wanted to do was totally ruin Duo's rep in the
school! In short she wanted JJ to rape him". Shaking with rage Heero thanked the girls before
stalking towards the cafe. Trowa stunned followed. The girls shrugged before resuming their
conversation "What a hottie..." the shorter one rolled her eyes man, there she goes again.
Heero slammed the caf doors wide open. It didn't take him long to spot the bastard as always
surrounded by his cronies. Face devoid of emotion Heero walked up to the group, and without a
single word planted his fist in JJ's still healing face. The football jock flew out of his chair and
landed with a thud on the wood floor. Trowing the chair aside Heero strode over to the groaning
figure, grabbing the boy by his collar the enraged boxer heaved the whimpering figure to his feet.
"Where is she?" blood poring from his nose JJ' begged Heero to leave him alone, "Please... no
more... she's not here she hasn't been for two weeks... she's in the hospital with her father...
please leave me alone!" With a disgusted growl Heero allowed the pitiful weeping figure to slid
to the floor.
"Heero Yuy report to the office... Heero Yuy report to the office immediately!" the loud speaker
caught the entire school's attention. Heero strode out past the silent onlookers, and a grim Trowa
holding a shaking Quatre close; never once did he look at JJ weeping on the floor, for from that
day on JJ would lose all respect in school.
Still shaking with suppressed rage Heero made his way to the office wondering if this had
anything to do with the fight. Entering the office, Heero prepared himself to once more be blasted
out by the vice-principle. "Mr. Yuy!" the high pitched wine of the secretary made the poor boy
wince, barley resisting the urge to cover his ears Heero tried to smile, "Why Mrs. Winston how
are you today?" blushing the little old white haired lady giggled, "Oh you! Anyway you were
called because someone by the name of Wufei called..." looking up Mrs. Winston stared at Heero
who seemed to forget how his mouth worked. "Well this boy gave me a message... and a rather
strange one at that... all he said was 'He's awake'. Make any sense to you?" Looking up Mrs.
Winston found herself alone, "Well I guess it must have," she grinned before returning to her
typing.
Heero was riding hell for lather towards the hospital ignoring red lights and cars alike. 10
minutes later he pulled up in front of the white building.
~*~*~*~*~*~
Duo groaned causing Wufei who'd been sitting close by to jump out of his chair, "Nurse!" he
called "Nurse!" Turing back to the boy on the bed Wufei saw Duo's wide eyed look of horror.
The poor boy was choking on the tube rammed down his throat. Fortunately the nurses arrived in
time to remove the tube while Wufei called Heero's school on the cell.
Finished the two elderly nurses left giggling as Duo huskily thanked them for there troubles.
Resuming his seat Wufei studied the long haired boy on the bed intently, he was trying to figure
out just what it was that Heero loved about him. "Hello..." the soft thickly accented voiced
surprised the Chinese man, Duo sounded Irish... "Hello Duo..." Wufei replied equally softly. The
wide eyed teen widened his eyes further as the unknown man beside him spoke his name.
"Why... Why am I here?"
Wufei leaned forward in his chair as he explained to Duo exactly who he was, and what had
happened that night. Duo listened sadly as Wufei told him the chain of events, but the normally
cheerful boy was happy to hear that Heero was most defiantly on his way. "He's been moping all
this time," Wufei lemented "Can't get him to do any-" all at once the door was rebounding off
the wall and an a Heero shaped figure stood in the doorway panting after his mad dash up the
stairs.
"Heero?" Duo whispered, covering the distance between the entrance and bed Heero immediately
grasped Duo's hand tightly. Relief such as he'd never felt before washed over the messy haired
fighter as he looked Duo over from head to toe. Sensing the couple needed a little private time
Wufei left silently smiling at Heero's brilliant smile.
Wanting to make sure that he really wasn't dreaming Heero slide onto the narrow hospital bed
pulling Duo into his arms. Tucking the smaller boys head under his chin Heero sighed, content to
stay like this forever; but there were questions yet to be answered. "I suppose Wufei told you
what happened..." Heero felt Duo nod slowly against his chest. "Duo there are things... I need to
know..." again came the silent nod. "How long?" Heero felt the boy in his arms begin to shake,
holding Duo tighter Heero waited for the answer patiently, "A- as long as I c-can remember..."
Duo chocked out.
Heero felt that blind helpless rage threatening to take over. Pushing his dark thoughts away the
boxer began to rub his beloveds back tenderly offering much needed comfort. "Why Duo?"
shaking harder Duo really didn't want to go back... he didn't want to remember the way his life
was; but Heero wanted to know and all to soon Duo found himself relating his past, and through
the tears and te shaking Heero held him tight offering quite strength.
Finished and completely exhausted Duo didn't even look up when the doctor entered, thankfully
Heero didn't move either. Sleepily Duo heard the man leave again before Heero shook him
slightly, "Duo koi we can go home now..." nodding but not understanding Duo cuddled closer
not wanting to be away from the others warmth. Heero smiled at his lovers antics and held him
tight as a nurses appeared to remove the IV, Duo vaguely felt the needle being removed before he
was propped up. Blinking owlishly Duo felt Heero tug the hospital gown off before the little one
could muster up the energy to be shy. Removing his shirt Heero pulled it over the figure seated
on the bed, cursing all the while that Duo had nothing else to wear; as the clothing he'd arrived in
was...
Thankfully Wufei solved the problem by returning with a blanket. Heero bundled the dozing Duo
before cradling the light load to his chest. Nodding the blue eyed teen followed Wufei out and to
the car waiting below.
There was no way in hell Duo was ever going back to the Peacecraft place again. He was going
to stay at the dojo and become, Heero hoped part of the family. Duo slept all the way home
curled in his love's lap and didn't even waken when he was deposited softly on Heero's bed.
Stripping quickly Heero joined the bundle in the bed pulling the softly snoring youth securely
into his embrace. Happily the couple snuggled close causing an equally tired Heero to slip into
sleep... but not before he sent a feverent prayer of thanks for the return of his love.
~*~*~*~*~*~
Heero woke slowly, blinking sleep out of his eyes he recalled yesterday's events and smiled. Duo
was a comforting weight of his chest, mumbling incoherently the boy in question shifted slightly
wringing a moan from the teen beneath him. Heero shifted out from beneath Duo trying to calm
himself, this was not the time the braided angel was still a little weak on his pins to be doing
'that' sort of thing. Still... sighing regretfully Heero gathered so fresh cloths before disappearing
into the washroom.
15 minutes later a still slightly damp Heero chuckled softly as his lover continued to sleep.
Deciding that the boy need a more rest the still grinning Heero left for school.
~*~*~*~*~*~
"Yo Heero!!" Trowa waved a hand wildly in front of Heero's face, dazed blue eyes focussed on
the flailing appendage "Mmm?" chuckling the green eyed boy slung an arm around his friend's
shoulders. "A say l'amour..." Heero couldn't argue he just shrugged and made his way to forth
period. One more class and he was home to Duo...
~*~*~*~*~*~*~
Duo woke late in the afternoon feeling much better. Noting Heero's absence he deduced that
today was school, then grinned when he realized how thoughtful his love was. Sitting up the long
haired boy stretched before he spotted the note on the pillow next to him. Smiling softly he read
the messy handwriting:
Duo,
Gone to school, make yourself at home be back later.
Love,
Heero
Duo stoped breathing, love...Heero... Heero loved him? Frowning in puzzlement he decided that
this needed to be cleared up. But now was not the time... right now he really needed to wash his
hair. Frowning is disgust Duo grabbed some of Heero's cloths hoping he wouldn't mind, then
proceed to lock himself in the washroom.
Duo idly stared in the mirror as he brushed his hair, nothing about him had changed. There were
no scars... he looked the same. Wufei had told him while he'd been in coma for two weeks his
wounds had healed, but wounds ran deeper then the flesh. Dividing his hair into three parts he
deftly plated the mass of chestnut locks forming them into the familiar braid. Shivering he
quickly pulled on the borrowed apparel snorting as the jeans refused to stay on and the t-shirt
reached almost to his knees. Ok, Heero wasn't that big! Henti thoughts suddenly came to mind
and Duo blushed a bright red, ok maybe Heero was big...
Exiting the washroom Duo procured a belt to secure his falling pants in place. Feeling much
better he decided it was time to find some food as his tummy growled loudly. Locating the
kitchen Duo nearly squealed with delight at the array of cooking things there. Now he could
defiantly cook for Heero! Looking at the clock he nodded decisively Heero would be home in
half an hour, time to get to work...
~*~*~*~*~*~*~
Heero hurried home right after school eager to see Duo, and tell him the good news. Screeching
to a halt in the driveway the blue eyed boy ran inside, only to come up short in the doorway. It
was the smell that nearly knocked the wind out of Heero. It was someone cooking?! Silently
Heero tiptoed into the kitchen only to see his angel busily stirring a pot on the stove humming to
himself.
Smiling mischievously Heero came up behind the vision wrapping his arms tightly around a slim
waist. Gasping Duo nearly dropped his spoon, ready he tear away from the unexpected embrace
he paused as a very familiar voice rumbled in his ear, "Smells good..." sighing happily Duo
leaned back into the warm embrace. "Mmm..." unable to resist Heero gently kissed the pale neck
and shoulder exposed by the overly large shirt, "Feeling better?" he asked between kisses.
Duo's hand quite stirring as sensations from the kisses temporarily shut his mind down, "Yes..."
Duo moaned as the teasing tongue found a sensitive spot beneath his ear. Chuckling softy Heero
sucked hard leaving a definite hickey just below Duo's jaw.
"Ahh..." Heero turned his head in the direction of the rather strangled noise, then laughed as he
saw a very red Wufei holding his nose. Still grinning he planted one more wet kiss on the
delectable neck before releasing an equally red Duo. "Do you guys want something to eat?"
Heero watched Wufei hold a Kleenex to his nose to stanch the blood flow, "Yes Duo-koi..." he
replied as an irritated black haired teen glared at him.
Sitting at the small kitchen table the two adopted brothers watched as Duo placed plate after plate
of delicious smelling food before them. Smiling Duo joined the pair as he encouraged them to
eat, Heero didn't need to be told twice. All the youths dug in with gusto, praising Duo for an
angel which left a rather embarrassed Duo.
Soon the 'snack' was done and a still blushing Duo returned to making dinner. The other two
cleaned up the plates. "Duo I got good news for you!" Heero suddenly remembered why he'd
been so anxious to see the boy. "I talked to your English teacher today and he want's you back as
soon as possible he still wants you for Juliet." The look of radiant joy was very nearly the
undoing of Heero, well that and the fact Duo threw himself into his arms. "Really!?" Heero
nodded pleased he could make his angel smile. "Hai.."
~*~*~*~*~*~*~
The days began to take on a pattern, at home Duo would always cook for the three of them,
making lunches and breakfasts as well. Heero began to suspect that Wufei was falling in love
with his koi's cooking. But Heero really couldn't blame him, it seemed every one the boy met
fell in love with him. At school though... it was a common thing to see both Heero and Duo
together, making out or just cuddling they also seemed to have gathered a yaoi fan girl club that
loved make up excuses just to see them together.
Although he'd never said the words Duo soon realized that Heero loved him. In the way he
touched him, the way he looked at him... it was all so... well romantic. All except a certain
blonde bitch that just refused to quit. Relena had returned to school soon after Duo and since then
tensions had run high. The two never spoke, the plastic princess knowing better then to try and
confront her once brother in front of Heero. That was all about to end though as the silent battle
came to a head one day after school.
~*~*~*~*~*~*~
"... For I never saw true beauty till this night." Duo waited for his que the play was set to be
preformed in a week and he was nervous as hell. Heero and Wufei had promised to come and see
the production but... Duo really hoped he didn't screw it up. Adjusting his make shift dress the
budding Juliet stepped forward to recite his lines.
Everyone had noticed the change in Duo, he seemed happier more cheerful... especially when
Heero was around. Duo had been in many ways given a second chance in life and he was
determined to make the most of it. Even if he lived with a pair of crazy karate junkies, which
seemed to think it was the most natural thing in the world to have an all out fight during dinner.
"That's a wrap!" the director/ English teacher waved to the students smiling, "See you all the
same time tomorrow! And Duo... very well done!" blushing furiously Duo helped the costume
girl remove his still pinned together costume. The other actors waved to the star actor on their
way out, some where along the line people had begun to see Duo in a different light... the once
black balled boy now had friends.
Floating on cloud nine Duo stepped onto the now empty stage waiting for Heero to show up so
they could head home. Sighing in contentment Duo lifted his arms imagining the auditorium full
of people clapping and calling his name, wanting an encore... and Duo looking out into the sea of
faces to see those beautiful eyes he loved so much...
"Well, well... all alone are we?" Duo's fantasy's came to an abrupt halt as a voice he dreaded
called out. Turning slowly to his right violet eyes meet... "Relena". Duo gave a short nod
narrowing his eyes slightly, "What no hug for your sister? I'm hurt Duo..." Relena fake pouted.
"What the hell do you want?!" emotions high Duo's accent got very distinctive, "I don't want
you in my life Relena you messed it up once already". The synthetic bimbo walked forward high
heels clicking on the stage floor, silently she circled Duo taking in his new attire. Snug black
jeans, tight red turtleneck defining every lean muscle on his small frame. As much as Relena
hated to admitted it Duo was a definite hottie.
"Well Duo I just came to tell you that it's all over now. I'll take care of Heero so you can just
leave him..." unbeknownst to the two former siblings Heero had entered the auditorium, seeing
the bitch talking to Duo made his blood boil, she had no right! About to rush forward to aid his
love Heero halted in his tracks at Duo's next words.
" Yeah Relena I'll leave the man I love most in this world because you said so. Yeah sure and
you're a virgin!" amazingly Relena turned several nice looking shades of red before settling on
purple. "How... dare you!" she spat really pissed now. Duo calmly folded his arms matching her
glare for glare, Relena was thrown off balance usually by now Duo would be cowering in fear!
"Surprised Relena? You should be, normally I'd be on the floor whimpering by now. But as you
can see I'm still standing". Incedious Relena stared at the complete change wrought in the once
frail young man, "Yeah Relena I wouldn't defend my self, I wouldn't have said any thing to you.
But I've changed, I have someone who loves me and he doesn't hit me! Although he's never said
it I know he loves me and I love him!"
Heero stood frozen in shock unable to move an inch. Duo moved forward still intent on his
supposed ex-sister, " That's it Relena he taught me that I have value, I'm worth something and
it's not love when someone hits you. You would never understand, so used to getting your way...
all your looking for is a quick fuck and your on to the next one. Well I got news bitch Heero's
mine and there is no way in hell I'm ever letting him go!" millimetres from Relena, Duo smiled
"He's mine..." without hesitation the blonde girl slapped him cranking his head to the side.
Turning back to her Duo smiled again as re raised his fist. Relena wasn't given time to react as
the incoming fist cold-cocked her, later when she woke alone though she'd have a hell of a
shiner... and a moustache drawn in permanent marker as well as the words 'Ho Queen' scrawled
on her face.
Shaking his hand the braided youth gave a satisfied smirk before jumping at the sound of
applause. Blushing he turned to see Heero frozen halfway to the stage, clapping and crying...
"Heero!" Duo yelled in distress, leaping off the stage he bounded quickly to his lover. "Heero!
What's wrong? Are you al-" the questions were stopped as he was drawn into a warm embrace.
"Duo, did you mean all those things?" embarrassed at having sounded so sappy Duo nodded
shyly. "I'm... I'm sorry Duo I mean... Ai shiteru..." Heero pulled away pressing feather light
kisses to Duo's face, "Ai shiteru... Ai shiteru ...." was whispered interspersed with the kisses.
Confused Duo gently cupped his koi's face, "What does that mean Heero? You said it the first
night we... ummm..." laughing quietly Heero pulled the smaller figure close once more "It means
I love you Duo". Gasping happily Duo pulled away to look into blue eyes dark with emotion,
"Really?" nodding the tall fighter sighed "Hai..." laughing happily violet eyes glowed brightly
while small pale hands wiped away the tears, "I love you Heero".
Tilting his beloved's face Heero gently kissed his angel savouring the sweetness that was Duo,
moaning into Heero's mouth Duo granted his lover access as there tongues duelled and fingers
played over each others skin. Soon things got a little hot and heavy and before either of them
made a total mess of there pants Heero scooping Duo up racing to his bike. Giggling the
mischievous long haired teen tormented Heero with soft kisses and licks to his neck. The messy
haired teen raced home...
~*~*~*~*~*~*~
"Ahh... Mr. Peacecraft, what can I do for you today?" Dr. J leaned back in his desk chair. A
rather bruised man sat before him, "Yuy". Arching an eyebrow the doctor nodded thoughtful,
"You must mean Heero, the 'Demon'" J chuckled "He's making quite the stir, 20 fights all KO's
and not a lost yet..." Mr. Peacecraft nodded, "I want him gone?"
The man behind the desk shook his head smiling ruefully, " Why would I want to ruin my prize
fight-" his sentence was cut off as a large briefcase containing millions was thrust at him. "3.7
million and I want him disabled..." J nodded as Mr. Peacecraft stood, "Pleasure doing business
with you..." and with that the man was gone.
Frowning Dr. J tapped his fingers idly on the suitcase lid, how was he going to do this and still
make more money... suddenly it came to him in a flash. "Treize get your ass in here!" J yelled
into the intercom, no sooner then he'd turned the machine off as the ginger haired bookie
appeared. "Yes sir?" J smiled, "Hows are second best fighter Trowa doing..."
~*~*~*~*~*~*~
"Arms up.. That's it now power house!" Zechs stood behind Heero calling out instructions as the
boy pummelling a large bag. "Ok now..." Heero listened with half an ear he was thinking about
Duo at home probably making dinner... sighing he missed the chuckling comming from the older
man trying to tell him something, "Troubles?" the blue eyed fighter shoot his head "No just
tired..." Zechs leered leechously before giving over and hooting with laughter. Heero was about
to give him the one two when he heard a cry from the sparing ring.
Looking over to the sparring ring Heero saw Trowa fall to the mat... and not move. Everyone
rushed forward at once, Heero helped several of the other fighters carry his unconscious friend to
the small dirty doctors office in the back room. The doctor checked him over before lighting up
his cigarette, "Well?" Heero looked at the short pudgy man with thick wire rimmed glasses.
"Looks like an aneurism... one more hit to the head and he could die..." Trowa looked at the man
expressionsly urging him to continue, "No fighting for 6 weeks".
The man left Heero and Trowa alone, "Well Heero... looks like I'm down and out". Heero sat
beside his friend, "Rest, look after yourself I know Quatre would be heart broken if anything
happened to you ya know?" Nodding Trowa punched Heero playfully in the arm, "Speaking of
which you told Duo yet where you disappear to almost every night?" shaking his head Heero
stared at the wall "Haven't found the right moment yet..." Trowa patted him on the back, "You
gotta do it man, he's not stupid he'll figure it out eventually..." Heero nodded "That's what I'm
so afraid of..."
~*~*~*~*~*~*~
Heero opened the door quietly, exhausted he stumbled into the kitchen only to smile when he
saw his dinner and a note waiting for him. Wolfing down his food the boxer hastily showered
before entering his and Duo's room wearing nothing but a towel. It was obvious Duo had been
waiting for him the reading lamp was still on and a book lay open beside he sleeping figure.
Softly smiling Heero picked up the book and turned out the lights before discarding his towel and
joining Duo in bed.
Pulling the small teen close Heero content began to doze when a soft voice brought him back,
"Why Heero?" the musical voice with a mystic lithe was choked with sadness, "Is.. Is I-it me?"
Heero squeezed Duo tight enough to cause the other to squeak, "No love... never you it's me..."
turning to face Heero the pale teen tried to understand. "I can't tell you Duo... but trust me ok?
Someday I'll explain it all..." Duo hugged him close "I trust you with my life". The words were
so simple yet Heero believe them as if they were a holy text. Pressing a soft kiss to surprised lips
Duo snuggled close once more before falling asleep.
Heero stayed awake much longer thinking about what Duo had said, he trusted him... "I hope you
won't regret saying that Duo..."
~*~*~*~*~*~*~
"I'm going out..." Heero stepped into his shoes before turning to face Duo and Wufei. Both teens
looked worried, Heero hastened to assure them, "I'll be back soon promise". He gave Duo a
quick peck on the cheek before disappearing out the door.
Frowning Duo hesitated, "Here" Wufei tossed him the car keys, "Find out where he's going off
to. Don't worry I'll look after things at this end of things". Smiling gratefully Duo gave the
Chinese boy a hung before he two vanished. Smiling Wufei headed back to the dojo to get ready
for class, "Good luck you two..."
~*~*~*~*~*~*~
"What the hell?" Heero had entered the stadium in time to see EnEicko take a hard hit to the
head. Not pausing he headed for Treize's office. "What the hell is going on Treize?" Heero
kicked the door in revelling the man counting money. "What?" Heero snorted, "Why the hell is
EnEicko in the ring? I was supposed to fight him!" Treize shook his head, "New plan J arranged
a new fight winner takes all 22 grand..." cold blue eyes narrowed, "Where's the damn catch?" the
ginger haired man shook his head, "So untrusting... why it's you and Barton..." with a roar of
rage the furious teen ran to the change rooms.
Sure enough there was Trowa dressed and ready to fight, " I won't fight you!" Heero threw his
bag away and stared at his friend. "The hell you won't!" Trowa yelled back, "This in my chance
Heero, J says if I win this he'll take me pro". Both fighters stared at each other hard, "Don't mess
with this Heero.. It's my chance, my chance to prove myself..." the two continued to stare, " I
won't fight you..."
~*~*~*~*~*~*~
Duo looked around at the crowed arena, people of every type lines the seats smoke and booze
heavy in the air. The crowd was yelling for blood, as one of the present fighters in the ring fell to
the mat and didn't get up again. Suddenly Duo felt a strange arm wrap itself around his
shoulders, "Hey sweet thing what are you doing here?" Treize looked down at the young man
who could only be Duo Maxwell. "Come on this was honey we can get a better view of the
action..." he steered a relucent Duo towards the front row.
"Well Dr. J look who we got here!" J turned looking Duo over once, before gesturing for the boy
to sit. "Just in time, your lover is about to get in the ring". Duo watched as Heero face set grimly
entered the ring on one side and on the other... "Trowa!" he gasped, "Oh god..."
~*~*~*~*~*~*~
Heero stared across the ring at Trowa as his pointed played to the crowd, "Listen kid... this is
your show, show them your fight". Nodding Heero accepted his mouth guard before going out
and knocking gloves with his friend. "Nice clean fight gentlemen", the ref sent them to their
corners, to wait for the bell.
Trowa was first out heading forward, he also landed the first punch... and the second. Heero
made no move to black he just stood there allowing the blows to come. Frustrated Trowa
punched him hard in the face sending him to the mat. Rising slightly Heero stared at Trowa, "Get
up!" slowly Heero stood the crowd booed they wanted a fight. The bell went again as the first
round ended.
Returning to his corner Heero gratefully accepted the water before spitting it out in the bucket.
Treize appeared out of now where, "Get the hell out of here," Zechs growled at the man. Treize
merely pointed, the platinum haired corner man nudged the stoic boy "I think you better look
kid..." turning slightly Heero's eyes widened as J threw an arm around Duo and waved. Large
violet eyes looked at him apologetically. "Feel like fighting now?" Treize asked.
The bell rang again and the two competitors faced off again, this time Heero did fight going for
the body only. Clinching Heero pushed Trowa away, "Don't do this! I won't fight you but if I
don't J's gonna hurt Duo". Trowa raised his mitts hitting Heero in the face hard, head snapping
back Heero looked back at Trowa dispassionately, "Fight me! Fight me Heero!" again Trowa
lashed out with a killer left. Knocking Heero to his knees the green eyed boy froze in place
panting heavily, the ref came forward to count but stopped abruptly when he saw the look on
Heero's face.
Standing Heero faced Trowa blood ran from a cut above his eye dyeing his face red. "Well come
on get your money!" The crowd was mad they threw paper and cups into the ring trying to get the
fighters to go. "If your gonna do it do it now!" Trowa raised his fist... then lowered it. "Damn
you..." spitting out his mouth guard the fighter stared at Heero, "Damn you to hell". Then turned
and walked back to his corner amid the jeers from the crowd.
Duo sat in the audience staring up his lover trying not to cry, J didn't take it so easily. Getting
into the ring the doctor grabbed Trowa, "Go over there and knock him out!" Trowa shook his
head, "What?" J was mad, "I said no J I ain't working for you any more!" growling J punched
Trowa hard in the head sending the boy over the roped and into the crowd. "Trowa no!" leaping
over out of the ring Heero ran to his friend. Men appeared and the unconscious teen was carried
out of the arena.
J stood in the ring, "Sorry folks but your money will be returned and we apologize", "J I want
you!" racing into the ring Heero stood face to face with the man who not only threatened the love
of his life but his friend as well, "I want you J right here right now". Snorting the Doc raised an
eyebrow, "What's in it for me?" unmindful of the blood Heero wiped his face, "Me". J smiled, "I
get it you win and I let you and your boyfriend go free. But if- when I win your mine!" Heero
nodded and J laughed.
~*~*~*~*~*~*~
"Ladies and gentlemen, for the first time in this arena please welcome World Heavyweight
Champion, Dr. J!" The crowed roared and Heero stood in his corner not moving a muscle.
Playing to the people J came in laughing and dancing around. It wasn't until he held his hands up
that Heero realised he wasn't wearing boxing gloves. Turning to Zechs he held out his hands,
"Cut them off..." his cut man gave him an odd look, "Cut them off!" nodding in compliance he
snipped the gloves and tape off.
The bell sounded with out the fighters shaking. Heero was the first to strike aiming at J's face he
put force behind his hit only to hit the older man on the top of the head; and it hurt like hell.
Heero struck out again... and then a third time before his hand fell to his side. Zechs cursed in the
corner, "Damn it! Kid broke his hand..."
Heero hissed through his teeth holding his hand, "Top of the head Heero, hardest part of the
body..." this time J hit. It soon became apparent that with one hand out of action Heero wasn't
doing so well. J landed hit after hit, to the head, the body the legs. Duo covered his mouth trying
not to cry out for the madness to end. A particularly hard hit sent Heero out of the ring into some
of the crowd. Barley aware of what was going on Heero was rolled back into the ring by the
spectators. Face down on the mat he panted for breath, J waved to the audience. "1.....2.....3..
Come on kid.... 4.....5.." the ref whispered to Heero trying to get him up again.
Thinking of Duo he had to win so he'd be safe, and of Trowa, the fighter heaved himself to his
feet . "Should have stayed down kid..." J rushed forward about to plant a fist in his face, when
Heero turned the tables. Bowing his head Heero manurved J into punching the top of his head
effectively breaking the other mans fingers. "Come on J, hardest part of the body!"
Roaring in rage J swung wildly, but Heero ducked out of reach; while landing a punishing blow
to the back. Standing again J snarling lunged, no one saw Heero's 'broken' hand curl into a fist...
the last hit ended the fight as J fell to the mat with KO'd and broken noised.
Laughing Zechs ran into the ring, "Yeah did it kid! You nailed him!" Heero grinned as well as he
could with a swollen face, "Fight form the heart, Zechs!" still grinning he leap out of the ring,
coming face to face with Duo. "Heero..." wrapping his arms tightly around Heero, Duo held fast,
so happy that his love was still alive. "Let's get the hell out of here..." nodding the couple made
there way to the exit. Near the back stood Trowa, "You did it Heero..." staring solemnly at one
anther they clasped hands before pulling each other in a one armed embrace.
Grasping Duo's hand once more Heero made all hate to get away, "You know I have a feeling
Wufei isn't going to believe this..." Heero snorted then winced when he realized that hurt. "Don't
worry I'll make you forget about all the hurt..." Duo whispered in a seductive purr. Heero was
felling better already.
~*~*~*~*~*~*~
"Will you just sit!" Heero exasperated pulled am irritated Wufei to his seat, "But I can't see!"
rolling his eyes Heero hit him upside the head. "Baka! There's nothing to see yet. Besides your
acting like a 5 year old". Huffing the black haired teen slumped in his seat muttering about
injustices.
"Two houses both alike in dignity in fair Verona where we lay our scene..." Heero clamped a
hand on Wufei's mouth. "Shhh... starting". For the next two hours the two teens sat enthralled,
Wufei liking the Romeo and Heero thinking the Juliet was an angel in the flesh. Duo had his hair
down, and it was impossible to tell he was a boy. Proud of his lover Heero wanted to stand up
before all these teachers and parents, and students and shout to the whole world that Duo was his.
"For never was there a tale of more woe, then that of Juliet and her fair Romeo". The play ended
and the applause was thunderous. As the players returned for there bows the applause and cat
calls was at a fair volume. But when Duo returned to take his bow Heero along with the rest of
the audience was on there feet. The only standing ovation of the night. Blushing becomingly Duo
bowed as the curtain closed.
The house lights returned, and the brothers were swept into the mingling crowd. The people and
actors had gathered in the school foray to rave about the success of the play. Looking for a
glimpse of purple eyes Heero soon spotted his koi come running to the top of the stairs leading
down to the foray. "Heero!" Duo flushed with success didn't stop... but Heero knew what was
going to happen.
Moving forward he planted his feet, "3...2...1.." he muttered and sure enough Duo hit the second
step and lost his footing. Heero vaugly heard gasps comming from the people behind him, but he
was only focussed on Duo. Easily catching his rather klutzy lover Heero grinned as he heard the
beautiful creature giggle, "For a second I really did feel like I was and angel". Holding Duo close
he whispered softly in his koi's ear, "You're my angel..." pinking slightly Duo pulled Heero
down for a long sweet kiss.
So wrapped up in each other they never herd the applause behind them, at least not until they had
to pull away before things really got out of hand. "Ai shiteru Heero," Heero nuzzled Duo's nose,
"I love you Duo..." quickly Heero turned still holding Duo, stride purposeful he headed out the
doors, "Hey were are you going with my Juliet!?" the director cried. Grinning Heero looked over
his shoulder, "Home to my castle!"
Duo laughed merrily as Heero drove them home one his bike, "Come on Juliet I'll show you
things Romeo forgot to mention!" The two lovers roared off into the night content in each other's
love, for they had found that the only true fight it that of the heart...
