Chapter 4:
[No POV]
Two hours+ later, Trowa finally got the last piece of bubblegum off of Duo's face, and threw it on the floor in disgust. Duo looked up at Trowa's face, and had to stifle a gasp. In their current position, Duo could see both of Trowa's eyes clearly. The two stood there for a moment, until Trowa snapped back to reality and stepped away from Duo.
"Uh...thanks, Trowa..." Duo said, wiping his face with his hand. The feeling of sugar was still there.
"You're welcome," Trowa said dully, and Duo winced. Had he offended him with asking him to help in his predicament? He hoped not.
"Trowa..." Duo said weakly.

Just as the three were about to go and unlock the doors and turn off the cameras, they heard Duo call Trowa's name in a desperate urgency.
"Wait," said Quatre, sitting down again. "I think we've got something here."
***
[Trowa]
I turned around, wondering at Duo's weak voice. "What?" I asked.
"A-are you mad...at me?" he asked, looking at me through chestnut bangs, his eyes turning to puppy-dog eyes.
I blinked, wondering why he had said that. How could I be mad at such a beautiful creature as Duo? I contemplated.
"Trowa?" It was then I realized Duo was still looking for an answer.
[Duo]
I let out a breath I didn't know I had been holding when he responded.
"No."
"Oh, okay..." Duo said.
"I'm going to go check the doors," Trowa said. Duo nodded, but just before he turned, Duo spoke again.
"Trowa?"
[Trowa]
I looked at him. "What?" I asked easily.
He suddenly got fidgety. He kept shifting his weight from one leg to another, and his hands were starting to shake.
"What, Duo?" I asked swiftly again, as to not make him more nervous than he already was – if possible.
"Ah...nothing..." he stuttered, then fell back onto the couch.
[Duo]
I froze when Trowa stopped his trek to the door, and sat down on the couch again. He looked at me intently, his forest eyes searching for something in mine – as if he believed that eyes were the windows to the soul.
"Duo..." he said softly.
"W-what?" I squeaked.

Quatre, Heero and Wufei edged closer to the screen.
"Come on..." Quatre urged. "Say it! You know you both want to!"
"Say it, say it!" the three chanted. They had had enough of having two comrades-in-arms madly in love with each other, but neither one brave enough to tell the other how they felt. It wasn't a fun experience – not fun at all.
The three listened with completely open ears and undivided attention at the next words.
