Chapter 5

[Trowa]

I paused. I thought it was going to be easy when I began, but now it felt like facing a whole fleet of Mobile Suits by myself would be easier. "Never mind..." I said to Duo, standing up and going to the doorway to see if it was unlocked. I was starting to slowly yet steadily hate this room.

"Trowa?" Duo again.

"What?" I asked.

"It's...it's hard for me to say this, Trowa...and trust me, I want our friendship to stay in tact... But I need to tell you..."

I swear my heart skipped a beat. I turned around and sat back down. "What?" I asked. Duo took a deep breath and continued:

"I love you, Trowa Barton," he said.

[Duo]

I swear, one more inch and Trowa's eyes would have fallen through that bang of his and onto the floor. I winced. 'So,' I thought. 'He's going to reject me. I knew it. Heero did it – why did I think Trowa would be any different?'

I was so caught up in my own despair, that I almost didn't hear Trowa's next words.

"Me too, Duo."

I sputtered. "WHAT!?!?"

He smiled slightly. "What?" he said. "Did I say the wrong thing?" He walked towards me, sat right next to me, and leaned towards my face in the position we had been only moments before. "I love you, Duo Maxwell."

Then, in all the rush of happiness flowing through my veins, I kissed him.

[No POV]

Trowa kissed him back with the force of all his passion for Duo behind it. Duo gasped, allowing Trowa's tongue to slide in an mingle with his own. Then he broke away, his eyes wide and welling up with tears.

"Duo," Trowa asked softly. "What's wrong?"

"Trowa..." he said. "I love you...but I don't want to destroy our friendship. What if it doesn't work out?"

"Don't worry, Duo," Trowa murmured reassuringly. He nuzzled his neck, making him moan in pleasure. "It'll work."

"Bu—"

But Duo's train of thought broke off as he felt Trowa's hands move under his shirt to the smooth skin of his chest beneath, stroking and caressing in sensual exploration. He gave himself up to the sensation, letting his body relax and his thoughts reassuring themselves while he kissed Trowa back passionately.

Trowa couldn't believe this was happening. The boy's body molded perfectly into his and the creamy smoothness of his skin just felt so right beneath his hands. He couldn't get enough of him. His mouth crushed Duo's, and his arms held him close in an almost suffocating embrace and still it wasn't enough. He needed him, needed to feel all of him, needed to hear him scream his name in ecstasy. Trowa rubbed his hands harder across Duo's chest and heard him moan. The sound only excited him more.

***

The three watching them had turned off the cameras and screens hours ago, but it seemed Trowa and Duo were still in the music room – not even checking to see if the doors were open. Their yells of ecstasy were silenced, but a moan and the sound of leather sinking and rubbing against something could be heard through the doors.

"What if we just knocked and told them to stop what they're doing and eat dinner?" Quatre asked. "Duo hasn't eaten anything since breakfast!"

"Maxwell not eating is strange..." Wufei said.

"I'm not so sure about that..." said Heero. He smirked. "I think he's eating *something*." He paused to look at Quatre roll his eyes and start walking towards the room he and Heero shared.    

"What?" Wufei asked.

Heero followed Quatre and paused at the doorway. He turned and spoke:

"I'll let your imagination figure it out, Wufei." And then he disappeared.

Wufei blinked, then his eye started twitching. 'That's just wrong...' he thought, shivering.

***

Duo lie underneath Trowa's form, his face glittering from the moon shining on the sweat covering his body. Their clothes were discarded at the side of the couch that they had pulled out to make a bed, and a single quilt – gotten from Duo's room next door – covered them both.

"I love you," Duo murmured, his eyelids starting to droop.

"I love you too, koi," Trowa responded.

"Koi," Duo said, smirking. "I like the sound of that." Trowa smiled, and tucked Duo's head under his chin, making the Deathscythe pilot fall asleep to the steady lub-dub of his koibito's heart.

Trowa sighed, and swallowed a sigh of anguish. Not because of what had just taken place, but because of what *would* take place. Tomorrow he had to go on a mission, which the other pilots were already aware of.

He just hoped—he hoped he would be able to see his koi's face after his mission that was considered suicide.
