Part 7

Duo! " The braided man looked up as he heard someone call his name. Quatre ran to him with two silent companions behind him.

"Hi, Quat. Hi Trowa." he blinked several times after he saw the last person. "Treize?"

"Hn" Heero grunted. He still felt uncomfortable every time Duo called him with that name. "Since we all know each other, we thought it would be better if we went together." /At least that what Quatre thought. / he added silently. Actually he felt slightly disappointed. He'd much rather be alone with Duo.

Duo felt the same, but managed to grin at them. Now 'Treize' wouldn't kiss him or tease him like he did before. "Hey that's a good idea!" he lied. Then he turned to Heero. "Umm…thanks for the jacket."

Heero shook his head. "Nah, that's okay. I didn't need it anyway." He said.

Then for some reason everyone fell silent, because all felt a little uncomfortable with this new arrangement. "Hey, look!" exclaimed Quatre suddenly, breaking the silence. "That bird must have fallen from it nest!" he hurried toward the bird that lay a little ways away from him. Trowa followed behind him. Gently, Quatre picked the fallen bird and started to climb the tree to put it back in its nest.

"Let me." Trowa offered, but the small blonde shook his head stubbornly. He pushed Trowa aside and climbed the tree.

Smiling, Quatre put the bird back into its nest. "Now you safe" he whispered before he jumped down. It's not that high and he used to do this when he was little.

"Quatre!" he heard Trowa voice, but why did it sound so worried? Oh yeah...He had never done this since he had known Trowa. He prepared to land on the ground, but he had never been prepared to land in Trowa's strong, warm arms. Blushing, he bowed his head. "Geezzz. You didn't have to do that." he said "But thanks anyway."

Behind them, Duo and Heero watched them. "They'll make such a sweet couple." Duo said.

"Yeah, they sure would, but they're just too stupid or too blind not to realize each other's feelings." Stated Heero.

Grinning, Duo turned to Heero. "So what are we going to do about that?" he asked, with a not so innocent tone.

Heero smirked. "Got any ideas?"

"Quatre could you help me?" Duo asked sweetly. Heero had trapped Trowa and now it was his turn to trap Quatre. "Well, I heard from Treize that there's an abandoned ware house somewhere in this garden, and I was wondering if you could you take me there?"

Being a kind person he is, Quatre didn't suspect anything from his braided friend. "Sure, this way" he led Duo. "But why'd you want to go there? There's really nothing left there."

Duo just grinned "Let's just say, I've got my own reasons"

"Uh-okay" Both of them kept silent all the way to the abandoned warehouse. Duo just grinning all the way, while Quatre just got more confused by Duo's behavior.

"Quatre, do you like Trowa?" Suddenly Duo asked 'loudly' as they arrived at the door of the warehouse.

"Of course I like him. I thought you liked him too."

"No... Of course I like him, but what I mean is you LOVE him don't you?" he emphasized the word love. Quatre could only blushed at that question.

"Wha...whe...how do you know?"

"Do you think I'm blind?" Duo rolled his eyes. "Why don't you tell him?"

"Well...uh…"

Duo got impatient. " Just spit it!"

"Okay" Quatre yelled. "I haven't told him that I love him because I'm scared that he didn't feel the same and I don't want to ruin our friendship! There, are you satisfied?"

To his surprise Duo gave him an evil smile and pushed him inside the warehouse. "Tell him!" he commanded before he closed the door and held it so Quatre won't be able to opened it from inside.

Quatre stumbled and fell to the dusty floor. "Duo!" he stood and tried to opened the door. "Duo! Open it! I'm serious! Duo!" he banged the door but nothing happened. He almost swore that he could hear Duo snickered behind the door. Then a warm hand touched his shoulder and he turned around. "Trowa!"

"Is it true? Do you love me?" he asked, ignoring the shocked looked on the smaller man.

Quatre blushed and lowered his gaze. /I'll kill Duo! I'll kill Duo! / he repeated those words like mantra. But it stopped as Trowa raised his chin to look up at him. He gulped. /I can't avoid him forever/

"Well?" Trowa asked again. He's got more and more impatient to hear the answer from Quatre's mouth. His heart almost stopped when he heard Quatre say that he loved him only minutes ago. When Heero locked him in here, he didn't know what the meaning of this was. Now he knew why he did that. Now if only Quatre would say those three words again....

Sighing, Quatre gave up and looked up again. "Yes, it's true. I love you Trowa." He said finally. Quatre got silence as a response. /I knew it! He didn't feel the same...Now he must be disgusted with me? Fighting back the tears, he stepped back. "I-I'm sorry…just forget what I said, okay?"

Trowa's mind was high in the air when he heard Quatre say the words he'd been longing to hear. He was so happy that he forgot to speak, 'till Quatre stepped back and he realized that the Arabian thought he'd been rejected. Quickly he grabbed his love's arms. He wanted to smack himself when he saw the hurt that was haunting Quatre's eyes. "I'm sorry. I love you too… I just was so happy that I forgot to say it back to you."

"Really? You love me too?" Quatre felt a glint of hope and all his worries disappeared as he saw Trowa nod to answer his question. He threw his arms around Trowa. "Oh, Trowa! I was soo worried. I thought you didn't love me. I love you Trowa. I love you so much." He burst into tears.

Smiling, Trowa brushed Quatre's tears away with his fingers. "Shhh... Don't cry. I love you too, little one" he lowered his head and kissed him.

Unnoticed to the newfound lovers, two pairs of eyes were spying them. One had a huge grin on his face while the other one just smirked.

"Look! I told you it would work. All they needed was a bit of little courage." The braided one said proudly.

"Hn. Let's go." Heero said, grabbing the braid as he walked.

"Itai! Hey, that's hurt. Let go of my braid!" Duo cried out. Heero released the braid, but kept on walking. "Humph, you're so mean, Treize!" he ran after Heero.

Hearing 'his' name, Heero stopped suddenly. Duo who had his eyes closed, mumbling nonsense to himself, didn't see this, so he ended up bumping into Heero's back, losing his balance. He pulled Heero's shirt for support and they both fell, rolling around. When they stopped Heero ended up on top of Duo, their face only inches apart. Realizing the position, Duo blushed deeply and they looked at each other eyes for a moment.

Heero couldn't tear his eyes from the vision before him. Duo was absolutely beautiful. Her face was a shade of pink, hair spread out and she looked even better close up. He could feel her hot breath beneath him and he looked at those sweet lips, begging to be kissed. Looking at Duo's eyes he could see love and longing in there. Slowly he lowered his head and kissed him. Her lips tasted so good and Heero wanted more. He licked Duo's lower lip and slipped his tongue inside as his mouth. Duo gasped in surprise. The braided youth felt so good but he didn't want to go too fast. Duo might be scared of him. He broke the kiss and waited for Duo's reaction.

Duo just laid there. All he could think of was how good Heero kiss was. He couldn't believe that Heero actually kissed him. Maybe it was just one of his sweet dreams. He raised his hand and touched Heero's face. It was surprisingly warm. "Is it real?" he whispered. Smiling,

Heero took Duo's palm and kissed it. "Does this feel real?" he asked as he moved his weight off Duo and sat beside her.

Duo sat up too and smiled. "No... It must be a dream." He sighed as Heero kissed his palm again. "It feels too good to be true." He wrapped his arms around 'Treize's' neck and rested his head on his shoulder.

Heero raised Duo's chin and smirked. "I guess I should do it again 'till you wake up" and with those words, he claimed Duo's lips again.
