~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*
I hear the curtains at my window being dragged open and I pull the covers over my head in some futile defence against the sun.
"Up Maxwell!"
Ah, Wu-Fei, the bringer of the kindest wake up calls.
"Come on, Now!"
Great, now he's trying to pull the covers of me, well, he wont get away with that!
"Geddoff, Fei! I'm tryin' ta sleep!"
"Its WU-Fei! And no I wont get off, its already 10.30 and its time you were up you Baka!"
I smirk, irritable already. This could be fun!
"Awww, come on Fei, don't you love me any more!" I pull my most outrageous pout.
I hear him snort, "Knock it off Maxwell, it wasn't my idea to have you and your big mouth charging round the house, I am simply following the orders of our resident mother hen!"
I grin and pull the covers off my head. An early morning exchange of insults with Wu-Fei was always an entertaining way to start off. "Yeah, ok buddy, I'm awake. Now scoot so I can grab a shower.
The Chinese pilot shakes his head at me and saunters out of the room. As soon as the door is shut I let the mask drop. I rub at my eyes and grimace at the dull throb in my side. I was lucky. The bullet didn't go right trough, but it will sill leave a scar. Despite what my cheery mood may say I didn't sleep well last night, Hell, I haven't slept well in the last three weeks, since the nightmare. It still haunts me now. And to make matters worse, Heero still hasn't returned.
I sigh and drag myself out of my bed and into the bathroom. I shower, wash my hair and then do my teeth. After I have re-braided my hair I head off downstairs.
As I enter the kitchen I feels someone's arms around my shoulders and I find myself looking into the shining aqua eyes of Quatre.
"Duo." His voice is trimmed with concern, "I think we need to talk, don't we."
I try my best to look bemused but I know exactly what he means, he always seems to know when I am upset and what is worrying me, even if I don't know it myself. I feel the new mask drop and I slowly nod my head.
Quatre smiles at me and drags me over to the table, normally the idea of Quatre's cooking would have cheered me up, but this morning, nothing.
Wu-Fei and Trowa remained sitting at the table for a few minutes before both found a suitable reason for leaving. Trowa muttering about needing to check on his Gundam's ammo and Wu-Fei saying he needed to meditate with Nataku.
Quatre put down the cup he had been drinking from and looked sadly at me. "You hurt Duo, let me help you."
I bow my head, "Quatre, I don't think you can help, I don't think any one can.
Quatre places his hand on my shoulder and I lift my gaze back to his face, there are tears in his eyes "Please Duo, I know you are in pain, it will help if you let me in, I thought you trusted me!"
I have to smile at that. No matter how sweet and innocent he appears to be, Quatre has everyone of wrapped around his little finger. "Oh Quatre, you know I trust you!" He smiles at me and my resolve finally disappears and I tell him all about what happened on the mission, even though it was six weeks ago. I tell him about the dream and how it has haunted me for weeks and I also tell him my feelings for Heero, something I never thought I would tell anyone. By the end of my tale, I can feel tears leaving racks down my cheeks.
He hugs me again and I can feel he is crying as well, he always does when people feel pain, it was troubling at first, but now we have realised it is his way of dealing with things.
"Oh Duo, I knew you loved him, I knew it. I was so worried you hadn't seen it yourself."
"But what good will it do me, for all I know he could be dead, and there is no way he would ever forgive me for my feelings anyway!"
Quatre gives me another of his sad smiles, he seems to do that a lot now. "He went and found you didn't he, and he didn't want you to die, he stayed with you while he was here and he asked Trowa and I too look after you with care until he came back.
I feel my mouth open and close a few times, "Heero actually told you to care for me?" This is almost beyond belief; it just isn't the sort of thing Heero would do, especially not for me!
"He did Duo, I was shocked as well but than it all made sense, he had turned up here, and I had never seen him looking so worried, he was so exhausted and he looked like he was crying. He was caring you and he begged us to help you almost as if he feared we would refuse. Wu-Fei and I took you upstairs and tried to clean you up while Trowa tried to calm Heero down. I was scared Duo, I had never seen Heero like that."
I am speechless, which makes a change. I can't believe Heero would act that way over me. Me, Duo-loud-mouth-Maxwell.
Quatre smiles at me, "He was so worried about you, as soon as he had calmed down he was upstairs helping us tidy you up, he was trying to convince us to take you to hospital and he was so distraught when he realised that there was no way we could do it, it would have been far too risky.
I finally found my tongue. "Heero was trying to make you endanger the mission o save me?"
Quatre nodded at me, "He spent so long sitting by you, he would be constantly be reaching over to brush your hair off of your face, or simply just holding your hand. When he received the mission, he spent almost a whole day in your room with you. He really does care Duo, he cares for you like no one else."
I didn't trust myself to speak so I settled with staring at the floor. All I could think about was the fact that Heero possibly did care for me, but he still wasn't here. What has happened to him, where is he?
Quatre seemed to have picked up on my thought pattern. "Don't worry Duo, he wont leave you, he promised Trowa, Wu-Fei and I that he would come back and he will. I am sure of it. You will need time, I will leave you, you have been told so much!"
I look back at him and feel myself nod dumbly. Heero promised he would come back, for me? He never even thought he would see each mission through, but he wants to come back to me. This is too much, I can't raise my hopes, I can't.
I move away from the table and head back upstairs. I an feel myself crying, I hate this boys don't cry, boys don't cry! but its futile, no matter how many times I say this to myself it makes no difference.
I flop onto the floor under my window and cry my heart out, what if he's dead, what if Quatre is wrong, I can't keep this in much longer!"
Out side I hear it begin to rain, fitting.
I snap my eyes open, they sting, I must have fallen asleep, it's dark outside but it is still raining. I can't think what could have woken me up, aside from the rain it is silent.
I get to my feet and look out of the window, there doesn't appear to be anything out there ..
'Click' the front door
I get to my feet and walk out of my room. As I head down the stairs I can hear Quatre's excited voice from the hall, I wonder who it is, it can't be. .
I reach the bottom of the stairs and stare uncomprehending at the figure standing between Quatre and Trowa.
"Duo."
It is him, feel my breath hitch in my throat. I have waited for him to come home for so long and now he's back.
"Heero." I look up at him and I see something strange in his eyes, something I have never seen before. Could it be..? Love?
