Ice: Must stop writing! I literally just finished the last chapter and then turned around and started this one.
Blazer: Keep working! More, you must write more! Ha ha ha!
Ice: Shouldn't you be the one to be working? You're the muse.
Blazer: Meep. *Takes off running, Ice chasing her*
Disembodied voice: I will say the disclaimer.

"I don't know, it's just the fact that not a day ago Heero and Duo were like best buds and now… well, I think something happened," Quatre whispered with his eyes closed as Trowa rubbed his back. A few hours had past and so they had put their books up and retired to their room for a while. "Do you have to be so gentle?"
"Would you want it any other way?" Trowa ask softly. Quatre was lying down on one bed and Trowa was perched lightly on his back. "And I don't think you need to worry about Duo."
"No I don't want it any other way. And I can't help but to worry for him. I mean, think of what he's going through. I was the same way. I didn't want to admit to feelings for you and I fought it and all. It wasn't fun."
"I remember, trust me. I remember it drove you to tears a lot, until you gave into it."
Quatre shrugged a little, causing Trowa to shift a little bit at the movement. Neither of them had any clue that Duo had made a move on Heero. They just knew something was wrong.
"It's amazing when you think about it. What's this, the second day they've known each other? It must have been like a love at first sight thing for Duo. I wonder what's happened though."
"Maybe that girl Wufei was talking about has something to do with it," Trowa said as he slipped off Quatre and laid down beside him, taking his koi into his arms in a light embrace. "Maybe Duo met her if she's always after Heero and now he thinks he has no chance with her?"
"Maybe… Mmm, your warm…"
"Glad your comfortable," Trowa whispered, nuzzling Quatre's neck. However, there tenderness with each other was cut short when there was a knock at the front door of the dorm.
"I suppose one of us should go get that," Quatre muttered.
"Wufei can get it."
"Wufei left, remember? He went out for dinner. Come on, up."
Trowa sighed and let go of his lover and got up, walking out to the front door and opened it. There was a girl there. A blond girl.
"Hi there, I'm looking for Heero."
"He's sleeping."
"Oh, that's ok. He won't mind! He loves to see me!"
"No, I was told to-"
"Heeeerrrroooo! I've come to talk to you!"
~oo00@00oo~
Heero was startled awake by a loud cry, which seemed rather familiar. However, he couldn't place it no mater how hard he tried, and soon began to think he just dreamed it.
"Heero… Heero!" hissed a voice, making Heero look up. Duo was looking down at him.
"What? Did you cry?"
"It's Relena!"
"What?!"
Duo lightly jumped down off his bunk and tugged on Heero's arm. "I know it's her, I heard her and Trowa talking when the door was opened. Come on!"
Heero let Duo drag him to his feet but wasn't sure of what he was doing until Duo went over and opened the one window in their room, then pulled him over to the window.
"Come on. I know you can't stand her, so if you trust me, I can get you away."
"Your crazy! Duo, this is the second story!"
"If I can make it, you can, now come on," Duo replied, lightly slipping his small body through the window, then hopped to the ground, landing in a crouch. Heero sighed but he heard a fight brewing between Relena and Trowa, and so he didn't think, just jumped, and he was able to land on his feet safely, just in time too, because at that moment he looked back up and saw Relena at the window.
"Heero darling, where are you going?!"
"Out! See you later!"
Duo nodded and grabbed Heero's arm, pulling him away, knowing that it would take at least a minute for Relena to get back to the ground floor, and that was one minute he planed to use to the fullest. His speed was great, and Heero's was just as great, both running over the grass, looking for some place to hide from the girl that was sure to follow them. They were lucky, and had the lead.
"I get the feeling you've done stuff like this before!" Heero said as they ran.
"Oh yeah! Don't get the wrong idea about me Hee, I'm nothing like a good little boy! I used to sneak out through my bedroom window all the time back at home!" Duo laughed, tossing his head back. He was like a wild young stallion, doing something that hadn't been done for a long time. "Hey, over there!"
Duo turned suddenly and pulled Heero behind a building. They were quite far away now from the dorms, and had gotten away without Relena seeing where they went. However, Heero was still a bit… high strung, to say the least.
"Calm it, Hee."
"Can we get a little further away?"
"Sure, I guess, but where to? This is a good hiding place."
Heero didn't say anything, only started walking away, leaving Duo no real choice but to follow. Every few moments one of them would stop and look behind them to make sure they weren't being followed. About five minutes later, they came the top of a small hill and when Duo looked down, he found that there was a small lake hidden there.
"Wow. This is a cool spot."
"I know. Not many people know this is here, since if you notice were kinda far from the dorms and other buildings. No one normally walks this far out."
Duo nodded a little bit and walked down the hill, Heero following him with his hands in his pockets. All day he had avoided him, and now they were hiding out together. Just perfect.
"Duo, you could probably head back if you wanted-"
"You've got to be kidding. I have the feeling that now that Relena knows we're friends, she wont leave me alone either," Duo cut in as he plopped down on the grass at the base of the hill.
"You've got a point…" the older one said with a sigh as he took a seat near Duo.
Duo nodded a little and just looked off over the water. It was still day light out, in fact early evening. "There's not much to do out here, huh."
"Not really…"
Duo sighed and lay back, looking up at the sky. He knew Heero didn't want him there, it was rather obvious in the way he was acting. The thought of Relena though kept him firmly planted where he was, whether Heero wanted him there or not. Besides, he found it rather nice that he was given a chance to be there, since Heero had ignored him the rest of the day.
"Hey Hee?"
"Hn?"
The violet-eyed youth took a deep breath and closed his eyes. "I really am sorry bout what I did. I still want to be your friend though."
Heero didn't say anything, just closed his eyes for a minute, letting words run through his head.
"I think I like you…"
"Did you mean it, Duo?"
"Yes, I mean every word of it-"
"No, not that. What you said, last night… you said you thought you, well… yeah. You know what you said."
"Oh, that. God damn it, I can't lie Heero, so yes, I meant it…"
Heero tensed up dramatically and brought his legs to his chest. "Why? I mean, two days Duo. That's how long we've known each other."
"I don't know, really. I just thought you were beautiful since the time you walked into the room. I mean… ugh, I don't know, ok! I don't know!" he yelled in response to Heero, rolling over onto one side with his back to his friend and started to fiddle with the end of his braid. He did that a lot when he was upset.
'I should say something… but what?' Heero thought to himself, looking at Duo. "You know… I'm just as confused as you are…"
"How is that possible? You have nothing to be confused over…"
"…I never said I didn't like what you did…"
Duo let his braid drop and looked over his shoulder at Heero. "What? Back up a little, what do you mean?"
"I mean just what I said… and it's been driving me crazy all day. Ask anyone of my teachers. I couldn't sleep because of it, I could focus on anything, all because I thought… I thought…."
"You thought," Duo prodded gently, sitting up again. He wanted to hear what Heero was going to say.
"IthinkIlikedit!!"
Duo sat there for a few and looked at Heero, who had his head hung, his soft brunet hair covering his eyes. It took him a minute to translate what Heero had said.
I think I liked it…
