The One I Love Chapter 5 Duo POV

I walked into the room to find Heero had gone to take a shower. I couldn't help but wonder what Heero said in response to Relena asking him to marry her. He'd probably just say "hn" and ignore her or something.' I laughed slightly at the thought, but the smile didn't stay on my face for too long.

'I hope to gods that he said no' I thought 'but by looking at how happy Relena was when she was done talking to Heero, I highly doubt his answer was no.' I sighed and laid down on the bed. 'If Heero said yes it wouldn't only devastate me, but Hilde as well.'

Just then Heero walked out of the bathroom, and to my dismay, he was fully clothed. He was wearing his normal green tank top and spandex.

He walked past me and sat down at his desk. He then took out his laptop and started working. 'That damn laptop' I thought to myself.

"So Heero," I began. "What did Relena come here to talk to you about?"

"Business." He replied his voice impassive. I sat up on the bed and looked at him, my heart already clenching tighter. "What kind of business?" I asked trying to sound normal.

"She asked for my hand in marriage." Heero replied not looking up from his laptop.

"What?!" I replied trying to sound surprised, while my heart cracked.

I swallowed and asked "what did you answer Heero?"

"Yes." He said simply.

"Yes?" I asked hoping I heard wrong.

He then stopped typing and looked at me. "Yes, Duo, I said yes. I will marry Relena when the war is over."

My heart shattered into a million pieces. "Oh..." I said sadly, then put a grin on my face.

~*Heeros POV*~

"Yes, Duo, I said yes. I will marry Relena when the war is over." I said emotionlessly.

I then saw something I had never seen in Duos eyes before. They filled with sadness and lost all their shine, turning from a sparkling violet to a dull shade of purple.

"Oh." he said sadly, looking as if he was going to start crying.

Then in the next second he had a smile back on his face, but even his mask could not cover the sadness in his eyes.

"Congratulations Heero man!" he said cheerfully. He paused for a second and looked around the room until his eyes landed on the clock.

"Damn, look at the time" he said as he held his stomach "I haven't eaten all morning! I'll see ya later Heero, I'm gonna go get something to eat."

Without waiting for an answer he opened the door and left.

I had not expected him to react that way. Maybe he did care about me, I then buried the thought.

"No" I said quietly. "Duo has Hilde, he doesn't need me."

I then sighed and went back to work on my laptop.

~*Duos POV*~

"Duo, are you OK?" asked Quatre in a concerned voice.

I looked up at him and smiled. "I'm fine Quatre, why do you ask?"

He looked down at me and frowned. "Because you have been sitting here for three hours eating all our food!" he said motioning to the almost empty refrigerator.

"Oh...Well, I'm just hungry that's all," I said sheepishly

"I'll go shopping later to make up for all that I ate OK?" I said with my usual grin.

Quatre sighed. "Duo, I know something's wrong, I can see it in your eyes."

I looked around trying to think of an excuse. When I thought of none I looked at the ground.

"Its Heero isn't it?" Quatre asked.

I just stared at the ground.

"I know how you feel about him, so don't bother to deny It." he said, determination evident on his voice.

"Is it that obvious?" I asked quietly as I looked at the ground.

"Anybody who knows you well can tell by the way you look at him, and when Heero thinks theirs no one looking, he looks at you in the same way. He does care about you Duo, so whatever he did, I'm sure he didn't mean to hurt you."

I then laughed sadly. "Yea, if he cares about me so much then why is he going to marry Relena?"

Quatres eyes widened. "What?!" he asked in surprise.

"She came here today to ask him to marry her, and he said yes." I said sadly.

Quatre looked at me with sadness in his eyes. "Oh Duo, I'm so sorry." He said as he gave wrapped his arms around me.

"Don't worry, I'll talk to him." He said as he hugged me harder.

With that he got up and headed up to talk to Heero.

~*Quatres POV*~

"Heero, may I come in?" I asked as I knocked on the door.

Not getting an answer I decided to walk in. I opened the door and found Heero sitting on the window seal looking out into the night.

I took a step forward, but when Heero looked at me, I decided to keep his distance.

"Uh.Heero, is it true? Are you going to marry Relena?" I asked shyly.

"hn." Responded Heero seemingly ignoring my question.

"B...but why? What about Duo? Did you ever stop to consider his feelings?"

Heero visibly stiffened at Duos name.

"Duo doesn't need me," he said quietly as he jumped out the window and ran into the darkness of the night.

"Wait! Heero! Wait!" I yelled, but it was too late. Heero was gone.

"What do you mean Duo doesn't need you?" I asked quietly to the night.

~*Heeros POV*~

I awoke the next morning to find that Duo was not in his bed. I sighed as I lazily got up and headed toward the bathroom to take a shower.

When I got out of the shower, I was surprised to find that Duo was still not in the room.

'He is usually here babbling about some non-sense or something,' I sighed. "At least I can have a quiet morning," I said quietly to the empty room. I then put my head down in defeat.

'I would rather have him here than have a quiet morning' I thought sadly. As I headed downstairs.

I walked into the living room to find Duo sound asleep on the couch. He was snoring slightly and had empty box of pizza in his lap. There were empty ice cream containers, bags of chips, and empty soda bottles surrounding him. I smiled slightly.

He had somehow managed to get ice cream, pizza and chips all over his face and clothes.

"He was pretty upset yesterday" I heard a voice behind me say. I turned around to see WuFei standing there staring at Duo sadly. "He practically ate everything in the house" he continued, looking at me as if I was the cause of Duos problem.

"hn." I said as I walked over to duo and gently picked him up. I walked quietly past WuFei and up to our room. I set Duo gently down on the bed and went into the bathroom to get a wet towel to clean him up.

I gently moved the towel over his face, removing all the food, then took his shirt off and throwing it in the laundry.

When I was done cleaning him up, I smiled softly at him, and brushed his bangs out of his face. He was so cute when he was sleeping, like an angel. Only this angel wore black.

I smiled and turned to leave, I looked one more time at his beautiful face, studying it. I sighed and headed downstairs to clean the living room.

~*Duos POV*~

I yawned and sat up in my bed. 'My bed?' I though. 'How did I get into my bed? The last thing I remember was sitting on the couch eating pizza.' I shrugged, dismissing the thought.

I looked over to Heeros bed, to find that he wasn't there, which wasn't unusual considering he always got up before me. I sighed and looked at the clock it was almost 12pm.

'musta really been out of it' I thought as I stood up and stretched. It was then that I noticed that I didn't have a shirt on.

"Hey!" I said out loud. "Where the hell did my shirt go?" I looked down at the ground trying to remember.

"Oh Duo, glad to see you're awake." Came a soft voice from behind me. I turned around to see Quatre standing in the doorway with a pitcher and a glass of water.

"Hey Quatre, what's up? Where's Heero?" I asked cheerfully, momentarily forgetting about wondering where my shirt had gone.

Quatre smiled as he walked into the room and setting the glass and pitcher down on the nightstand. "He went with Trowa to buy more food." Quatre said his eyes lighting up at the mention of Trowa.

I smiled and rubbed the back of my head. "Sorry Q-man, guess I got a little out of hand."

"Hey, you wouldn't happen to know how I got here would you?" I asked "the last thing I remember was pigging out on the couch."

Quatre smiled. "Heero found you when he woke up this morning, he brought you up here and cleaned you up. He even cleaned the living room." He said, his smile growing wider.

"Oh..." I said slightly embarrassed. "Did you talk to him yesterday?" I asked.

Quatre frowned slightly. "Yea, kinda, all he said was 'Duo doesn't need me' then he jumped out the window."

"He said I didn't need him?" I asked disbelivingly. "Who the hell gave him that idea?"

"I don't know, but he's convinced of It." said Quatre brows creasing in frustration.

Just then Heero and Trowa came in. "Duo, glad your awake." Said Trowa, while smiling at Quatre.

I smiled at the two, they tried to hide it, but they made it quite obvious by the way they were around each other.

Trowa then redirected his gaze to me. "And Duo, since it was you who ate all of the food, you get to put the groceries away."

I sighed got up; I was about to leave with Trowa when WuFei came running into the room.

"It's over!" Wufei said happily.

"What are you talking about? What's over?" I asked fearing the worst.

WuFei smiled. "The war! Its over, Treiz was assassinated last night!"

My fears where confirmed. I watched as Quatre, Trowa, and WuFei rejoiced, with sadness in my heart.

For when the war was over, Heero was to marry Relena.
