These people were our very first reviewers and they've made us very happy!
Ice: Ok, now, once again, I don't own Gundam Wing, and this story is yaoi, 2x1, some 3x4. If you don't like it, then don't read it. Also, sorry if there is to much dialog. I have trouble with things without a lot of talking between characters. Also, there is some swearing, but, I doubt if you people are reading 2x1, then the swearing will bother you any. ^-^
Late getting back to the dorms was an understatement, seeing as how it was at least midnight when Trowa, Quatre, and Duo returned. They had been out all day for lunch at first, then they decided to explore the city, and finally they all spent hours at a club. Now, Quatre had ended up driving back, mostly because Duo and Trowa were both drunken idiots, and he was still very much sober, but also because he was the only one that was still fully awake. In fact, he had to carry Duo from the club because he had passed out.
"Trowa… Trowa…" Quatre whispered gently, tapping his boyfriend's arm, then sighed when he didn't wake. "Trowa!"
"Wh-what?!" the green-eyed man cried as he was startled awake, then groaned and placed a hand to his head.
"We're back. I parked as close to our dorm as possible, but your still going to have to walk."
"And him?"
The blond shrugged and looked to the back seat where Duo lay like a rag doll. It was actually pretty comical, because with all the starts and stops Quatre ended up making, Duo ended up half slipping off the seat so he was all sprawled out.
"I'll carry him in."
Trowa nodded and unlocked his car door, then opened it and stumbled out, leaning on the car door for support. From back inside the car he heard a soft chuckle and the words 'I told you not to drink' before Quatre got out and fetched Duo from the back seat, flinging his limp body over his shoulder, drawing forth a moan of pain from him. He seemed to be waking up. After that he started to walk back to their dorm, Trowa staggering behind.
~oo00@00oo~
Heero stretched and looked at the clock on his laptop. He had been working for most of the afternoon, though he had taken breaks, and now he decided it was defiantly time for bed. However, before his laptop even had a chance to completely shut down, he heard soft muffled noises coming from the front door.
"Ouch. Quuuaate!"
"Shush Duo. If your head wasn't so big and you weren't drunk I wouldn't have accidentally hit your head in the door way."
"Put me down."
"I doubt you will be able to stand. I'm taking you to bed."
Heero sighed and smirked a little then turned back the lower bunk's covers while waiting for the other boys to enter. He didn't have to wait long.
"Oh, Heero. Sorry if we woke you," Quatre said softly, entering the room, Duo still over his shoulder.
"I wasn't asleep," the brunet answered with a shrug. "Go on. I'll take care of him."
"Are you sure? I mean, you don't know him at all-"
Heero didn't say anything, just went and took Duo from Quatre, then put him in bed, tucking him in. Quatre nodded a bit, knowing that Duo would be fine, and then left to go help Trowa, shutting the door behind him.
"Ugh…"
"How much you drink?"
Duo blinked a few times, his eyes only about half open. "Uh… three of… something…"
Heero sighed and shook his head. "Freshmen. All the same. The blond seems smart though. He was fine."
"What do you mean… freshmen?" Duo questioned, trying to focus on Heero, though he failed miserably. The room wouldn't stop spinning.
"Oh, sorry. This isn't my first year here."
"What?!"
Heero smiled a very little bit. "This is my second year here."
"But… isn't this a freshmen dorm?"
"The lady that gave you your papers said something about 'freshmen wing' right? She did that to me too my first year. There is no real freshmen wing however. They just say that to try and make the freshmen feel better about their first year here. In fact, this is Chang Wufei's second year here as well," Heero tried to explain as best as he could to the drunken Duo. "And most freshmen go out and party the first night here, so I'm not surprised by your state."
The braided man just stared, blinked a few times, and then groaned softly. Heero probably thought he was a complete jerk now, for being such a drunken fool. What a way to start off. However, he didn't realize that Heero wasn't being judgmental. In fact, something in his eyes seemed understanding, like he himself had been in Duo's position when it was his first year at college.
"Get some sleep, Duo. Even though the first day is slightly slower and easier then the rest, you'll still need to be well rested," Duo's 'angel' said softly as he first turned off the lights then climbed up into the top bunk and settled down for the night.
"I don't even know where anything is. Tomorrow is going to be hell for me… And hey! I wanted the top bunk."
"You would fall out if you slept up here. You can have it when you're sober. And I'll help you as much as I can with the campus. Now, go to sleep."
"Thanks Heero," Duo whispered and smiled a little to himself before drifting back into a drunken sleep. Maybe things hadn't started off so badly after all.
~oo00@00oo~
Duo wasn't sure what was buzzing, but he did know it was the most annoying noise he had ever heard in all his life, so to fix the problem he plunged his head under the pillow. Surprisingly, a few seconds later, the noise stopped. However, in place of the noise came the surprise of someone ripping the covers off his bed, and taking the pillow from him.
"What the hell?" he muttered, opening an eye. It took him a minute, but then he realized what was going on and who was standing there, and he sat up instantly, which was bad. He had a killer headache. "Ugh… my head…"
"Good morning to you too. You've got an hour to get to your first class," Heero said, tossing Duo's blankets back to him. "Duo?"
"Ugh…"
Heero sighed and reached out, dragging Duo out of bed and making him stand, also making him blush, though he hid it. However, as soon as the older brunet let go of him, he fell to the floor, drawing a soft chuckle from Heero.
"Ok, you really did get yourself drunk last night. Just… try to stand and change clothes. Like I said, the first day of classes is always a little easier and most the freshmen end up this way, so the teachers expect it."
"In other words, I'm not screwed yet?"
Heero shook his head and left the room, leaving Duo to sit on the floor until he felt his legs weren't like jelly. It took a few minutes, but after a little while Duo was at least able to stand, and by holding onto things he was able to balance himself and slowly he was able to change clothes, fix his hair, and gather the things he needed for his art class. After that he made his way to Quatre and Trowa's room.
"Quat, you two up?" he called softly as he knocked on the door. A few seconds later the door was opened and he was let in. "Morning."
"Morning," Quatre ask as he went back to Trowa's bed and sat down. It seemed that Trowa was having the exact same problems with waking up that Duo had. "Trowa, you have to get up!"
There was a slight movement on the bed as Trowa curled up under the covers, and Quatre sighed, gently reaching out to try and shake Trowa awake, which ended up in him getting pushed off the bed rather harshly so he landed in a mess on the floor. Duo laughed as the blond just lay there dazed for a few seconds.
"Glad I didn't do that to Heero."
Quatre looked at Duo and arched an eyebrow while he got up off the floor. "Oh, so Heero woke you?"
Duo blushed but nodded, making Quatre smirk at him. "Yeah, he did."
"So, what do you have for him exactly, and don't say nothing because I know it's something. You've been acting strange about him since yesterday."
"I… I'm not sure. He's beautiful though, I think. I mean, the term 'angel' just seems to fit him. It's strange. I want to get to know him," Duo admitted with a shrug. "And right now just as a friend."
"Funny… I think I said the same thing about him when I first saw him," the blond replied, pointing at Trowa who still wasn't awake. "See what happened?"
"Hey, excuse me but I am perfectly straight-"
"Duo, I saw your schedule! If it's art, I think we should leave now!"
The braided man perked up a little and instantly turned to go. "Ok, coming!"
Quatre only stood there and shook his head. Poor Duo had no clue what was happening, even though he had seen it happen between Quatre and Trowa. It was going to make for a very interesting college time.
Ice: I thought that this was a good place to stop. This way they can all have their first classes in the next chapter.
Blazer: In other words, she ran out of ideas for this chapter. However, I will help her make it up in the next chapter. I am her muse after all, and I didn't feel like working today. I do, however, have a four day weekend to want to work again.
Ice: *glare* Yeah. Anyway, your opinion would be nice, so just click that little button down there and drop me a line please.
