Vacation chapter 12
Naruto POV
~*~
I watched out of the corner of my eye as Quatre approached Sasuke.
He walked up to him, and stood beside him. Sasuke, who seemed to be deep in thought, didn't even notice him. That kinda worried me, it was highly unlike Sasuke to be unguarded at any point.
I watched as Quatre startled him by saying something.
Come to think of it, he has been acting weird lately. Whatever is on his mind must be really important for him to zone out all the time.
I sighed. They seem to be having a serious talk, well from what I could see, Quatre was doing all the talking, but Sasuke was giving him his complete attention. My brow furrowed in confusion. 'What could they be talking about?'
I was just about to sneak closer so I could hear what they were saying, when Quatre gave him a sympathetic look and walked back towards us. I watched as he gave Trowa a wink then smiled happily at me. I frowned even more confused that before.
I was just about to ask what they were talking about, when Sasuke rejoined our group. I frowned and looked at the ground, vowing to ask them about it later.
**********
We were all talking happily when I happened to glance behind Sasuke. My eyes widened at what I saw.
Heeros parents had just walked into the dance, and were heading toward us. Relena was following behind, a small smile on her face. I heard Sakura make a small noise of surprise, and Sasukes body tensed immediately.
Quatre looked worried, as he held Trowa's hand for support. And WuFei remained calm silently watching.
I looked over at Heero and Duo. Heero's face remained impassive, and Duo looked slightly worried. To my, and everybody else's surprise Heero made no move to remove his arm from around Duos waist.
I glared at them as they approached us, Relena frowned as she saw Heero holding Duo, but she made no move to do anything about it. I took a step forward, reassuring Heero and Duo that I was there if they needed me. Duo gave me a reassuring smile; I smiled sadly in return.
Heero then calmly removed his arm from Duos waist and smiled reassuringly at him. I watched as he approached his parents, his eyes never leaving his fathers. He stopped walking a few feet in front of us, his posture showing he wasn't about to back down.
His father stopped walking a few feet from where Heero stood, his wife and Relena stopped a few feet behind him.
Relena, deciding to pretend that Heero wasn't with Duo, ran forward and latched on to Heeros arm.
"Heero! Where have you been? I was waiting for you for like an hour! I'm glad I found your parents." Relena said in her overly annoying voice.
Heero frowned at her and shook his arm, trying to get her off. His father momentarily forgotten.
Duo looked sadly at the ground, before turning to leave. He walked a couple feet before a strong, voice stopped him in his tracks.
"Wait." Said the voice sternly. Everyone turned to look at Duos retreating form, then to the one who told him to stop. Duo slowly turned around and looked at Heeros father.
"I want to talk to you." He said calmly, motioning for him to come back. Duo looked nervously at Heero, before walking back to where he was standing before.
I watched as Heeros father looked down at Heero, who had given up on trying to get Relena off. Heero matched his father's stare, neither one willing to back down.
Oblivious to what was going around her, Relena snuggled into Heeros arm, causing him to break his stare, and look down at her in disgust.
Heeros father watched as Heero once again tried to get Relena off of him.
"Relena." He said sternly, watching as she stopped her actions and looked up at him. "Let go of Heero, he doesn't need you clinging to him right now." He continued in a don't-mess-with-me voice. She looked at him, with a mixture of anger and annoyance before reluctantly letting go of Heero.
She stood next to Heero, unwilling to leave his side.
"Duo, come here." He said calmly. Duo took a deep breath before walking toward where Heero was standing.
Duo quietly stood next to Heero and looked up at Heeros father with nervous eyes.
Heero, sensing Duos discomfort, grabbed Duos hand and interlaced their fingers together. Duo looked at Heero lovingly, and for a short instant there was nothing but the two of them
They stared at each other, lost in emotion, until a cough from Heeros father broke them out of their trance. Duo quickly looked down at the floor, a small blush playing on his face.
Heero smiled slightly at his lover's embarrassment, before looking back at his father.
Heeros father sighed, as he looked into his son's eyes.
"I came here today, to see if what that little shrimp over there told me was true." He said calmly motioning over to where I was standing.
I frowned. "I'm not a shrimp!" I yelled back at him. He just smirked at me, before returning his attention to Heero and Duo.
"From what I can see, what the shrimp said was true, but I need to hear it for myself." He said as I growled under my breath.
"Tell me Heero, do you truly love this boy?" He said as he motioned toward Duo. I heard Relena gasp.
"How dare you say that MY Heero is...is Gay!" said Relena as she glared at Heeros father. She was about to say something else, but Heeros father held up a hand, motioning for her to be quiet.
"Do you Heero, Do you love this boy?" He repeated. Heero glared at him.
"He has a name." Said Heero sternly.
Heeros father looked taken back by the statement. He stared at Heero for a minute, and Heero stared back. His father sighed, "fine." He said.
"Are you in love with Duo?" He asked once again. Heero smirked, accepting his fathers question.
"Yes father, I am in love with Duo." He said calmly, voice unflinching. Relena gasped again, but was quickly cut off by Heeros father.
"And you, Duo." He said as he stared into Duo's eyes. "Do you feel the same? Are you in love with my son?" he questioned.
"Yes, I am" said Duo calmly, without any hesitation.
I watched as Heeros father closed his eyes and took a deep breath. He opened his eyes again, and looked at Duo, and then over to Heero.
"Even though I don't approve of your relationship, I guess I have no choice but to accept it. I have always said that all I wanted was for you to be happy, but all I have done is cause you pain." He said as looked into Heeros eyes. "I realize now, what I was too blind to see before. If this relationship is what makes you happy, then it will make me happy too."
Relena looked appalled as Duo jumped into Heeros arms, practically knocking him over. Heero wrapped his arms around Duo and looked up into his father's eyes. "Thank you." He said Quietly.
Heeros father smiled and looked over to me. He sighed. "If it wasn't for that little shrimp over there, I could have had a normal family. A normal son, with a normal girlfriend, who would eventually have normal children." Said Heeros father jokingly, As he hugged his son. "He's the one who should be thanked."
Heeros mother who was forgotten in the background hugged Duo, telling him she was happy for them, while Relena was boiling mad standing off to the side.
I smiled happily as I watched the events unfold.
Heeros father broke away from Heero, and walked toward me.
Out of the corner of my eye I see Sasuke step up behind me. I smiled. Normally I would be mad at him protecting me, but now I think it's kinda cute. It lets me pretend, even if it's only for a second, that he felt the same way about me. That he wanted to protect me, not obligated because we are on the same team.
Heeros father stopped a few feet away from me and frowned. "You took away my normal life, and my normal family." He said calmly. Sasuke slightly tensed, and my eyes widened. "I should hate you for that, hate you for making me different, because my son is different." His eyes were hard, and I thought for a moment that he really was mad, and really was gonna try and hurt me. Sasuke was practically glaring holes into him.
"I should hate you, but for some reason I don't." he said as his eyes softened. I let out a sigh of relief, my body relaxing a little. Sasuke on the other hand, still did not seem to trust him.
"In fact I am quite grateful to you, you opened my eyes." He said, a smile appearing on his face. He lifted his hand to put it on my shoulder, but one look at Sasuke and he decided against it. He opted for shaking my hand instead.
"Thank you Naruto." He said softly. "Because of you, I can see."
I smiled at him as he let go of my hand. "Goodbye." He said as he walked away.
"See ya later." I said quietly as he left with his wife.
"YOU!" I heard a screechy voice say. I looked over to see Relena walking angrily over to me.
"Me what?" I ask, slightly annoyed. She growled at me. "It was you who did this!" she screamed, attracting the attention of the whole dance. "Did what?" I asked, confusion evident in my voice.
"For starters, you turned Heeros parents against me!" she practically howled. "You not only convinced Heeros parents he was gay, but Heero as well!"
I looked at her with distaste. "How the hell do you figure that I was the one who did that? Has it ever occurred to your perfect little mind that Heero doesn't love you? That the only reason he was with you was because his parents?"
She scowled at me. "Heero has always loved me! And he always will!"
I stared at her, a look of complete disbelief on my face. "What is wrong with you?!" I screamed. "Are you blind, or just plain stupid?! Can't you take a hint! Has anything that has happened tonight affected you in anyway?!"
Her eyes widened as I continued.
"Are you deaf? Or do you need me to spell it out for you?! Heero-Does-Not- Love-You!"
She scowled down at me before looking over at Heero and Duo, who were surprised at my sudden outburst.
She ran over to Heero and grabbed his arm. "Heero! Tell them it's not true! Tell them that you love me and that you always love me not matter what!" Heero just stared at her, his eyes uncaring. She frowned, tears brimming in her eyes.
"Heero! Tell them! Tell them! You don't have to keep you love for me a secret! I know you always love me, and they need to hear it too! Tell the-- *smack*
Everyone stared in shock as Relena held her cheek. She looked up at Duo with anger in her eyes. "Listen to me Relena." Said Duo calmly. "Heero does- not-love-you."
She looked up at Duo her eyes filled with shock, before they filled with anger. "And what he loves you!?" she screamed.
In the background I slapped my forehead in disbelief. "How dense can this girl be!?" I said to no one in particular.
"How dare you say that you stupid fag!" she yelled as she brought her hand up to smack him. Duo closed his eyes, waiting for her hand to connect with his face. But the hand never came.
He slowly opened his eyes to find Relena staring up at Heero in shock. He had blocked Relenas hand before she could hit Duo.
Heero glared at her. "Don't you EVER talk like that about Duo EVER again." He said coldly. She looked up at him, her eyes filling with tears.
"H...Heero, you don't mean that..."
"Yes." Heero said, cutting her off. "Yes, Relena, I do mean it. Listen to me, I'm only going to say this once." She nodded her head slightly.
"I do not love you, I am in love with Duo." Said Heero, his voice still cold.
Relena then started to cry. "NO HEERO! How can you love him and not me! I don't believe you!"
Almost everyone in the dance sighed and shook their heads as she continued to cry.
Heero then grabbed Duo and pulled him in for a rough passionate kiss. Relena stopped in mid-sentence, and stared in shock. When they broke apart, Heero glared at her, daring her to say she doesn't believe him.
"How could you do this to me! I Hate You Heero!" She yelled as she ran out of the dance.
The whole dance room immediately broke out into a cheer, watching as Heero pulled Duo in for another kiss and a loving embrace.
I smiled at them, happy that they can be happy.
**********
After a while the dance settled back down. It was getting late, and they DJ was just about to announce the last dance.
I was quietly talking with Quatre and Trowa, wishing that the last dance would never come.
Quatre explained to me earlier that it was tradition that the last dance was a slow song, where you were supposed to dance with someone you cared about.
I sighed inwardly, I didn't want to be the one that sits alone in the corner. I wanted to have someone to dance with, someone like... I sighed once again as my mind led me back to the one person I didn't want to think about.
'I wonder who Sasuke will dance with' just as I thought that, the announcement for the last dance came on. I smiled sadly as I watched Trowa politely ask Quatre to dance. They were so cute together.
I was so wrapped up in watching them that I didn't notice Sasuke approach me.
A small cough brought my attention to him. He has his hands to his sides and a slight blush to his cheeks. I stared at him quizzically, he seemed almost nervous... my heart sped up hoping that he was gonna ask me to dance. But at the same time I scolded myself, trying not to get my hopes up.
I sighed. "What's up Sasuke?" I asked trying to sound cheerful.
"I...I was wondering..." he stopped, as if he was afraid to continue. My heard pounded in my chest, unconsciously filling with hope.
He sighed. "Will you...uh..." he sighed again running a hand through his hair. It's rare to see Sasuke nervous about anything; he's normally so calm. His nervousness made me want to know what he was going to say even more.
"What?" I asked, trying not to sound too impatient. He stared at the ground, as if trying to decide something then stared back up at me. "Dance with me?" He asked, his voice not its usual strong self.
My heart jumped in my throat as I smiled brightly at him. He smiles shyly back at me before taking my hand and leading me onto the floor.
I felt the blood rush to my cheeks as he tentatively put his arms around my waist. I felt his whole body tense as I put my arms around his neck and slowly began to sway to the music.
After a minute he slowly begins to relax and move to the music with me. I hear him sigh contentedly as he unconsciously holds me tighter. I smile as I place my head in the crook of his neck.
It felt so right being in his arms, I have never felt so happy. I inhaled his sweet sent as I snuggled into him. He smelled like the forest, just like I thought he would. I sighed contentedly as I listened to the music, and danced in his arms. I could easily stay like this forever.
"Naruto..."
His voice broke me out of my thoughts. I pulled away slightly and looked up at him. He looked at me, his eyes shinning.
"Naruto I..." He began in a soft voice as he raised his hand to my cheek. He gently began to trace the outline of my face with his hand, as if he was trying to memorize every detail. I leaned in to the touch and smiled softly, urging him to continue.
"I love you." He said quietly, barely above a whisper.
My heart stopped, as my eyes widened. I couldn't believe what I just heard, I couldn't believe that he just told me what I dreamt of him telling me.
"W...what did you just say?" I asked him, afraid my ears were playing tricks on me. He smiled as he traced my lips with his fingers.
"I love you." He repeated as he continued to caress my face. I smiled brightly, tears formed in the rims of my eyes.
I reached up to touch his face, testing to see if he would pull away. He leaned into the touch as I gently caressed the side of his beautiful face. A stray tear escaped and streamed down my face. He quickly reached up and brushed it away.
I smiled as I interlaced our fingers together, brushing his bangs out of his face with my other hand.
"I love you too." I said quietly as he smiled brightly. My heart leaped in my throat, I have never seen him smile like that before. I traced his lips with my fingers, then gently brought his face to meet mine.
His lips were so soft, just as I had always imagined. I smiled into the kiss as he ran his tongue along my bottom lip, silently asking for entrance. I happily opened my mouth as our tongues battled for dominance.
Due to the need for air, we slowly pulled apart. I smiled as I once again buried my face in the crook of his neck as he wrapped his arms around me pulling me close. I could feel him smile as he buried his face into my hair, gently stroking it.
My heart soared; my dream had come true.

Everyone stared in shock as Relena held her cheek. She looked up at Duo with anger in her eyes. "Listen to me Relena." Said Duo calmly. "Heero does- not-love-you."
She looked up at Duo her eyes filled with shock, before they filled with anger. "And what he loves you!?" she screamed.

'I wonder who Sasuke will dance with' just as I thought that, the announcement for the last dance came on. I smiled sadly as I watched Trowa politely ask Quatre to dance. They were so cute together.
I was so wrapped up in watching them that I didn't notice Sasuke approach me.
A small cough brought my attention to him. He has his hands to his sides and a slight blush to his cheeks. I stared at him quizzically, he seemed almost nervous... my heart sped up hoping that he was gonna ask me to dance. But at the same time I scolded myself, trying not to get my hopes up.
I sighed. "What's up Sasuke?" I asked trying to sound cheerful.
"I...I was wondering..." he stopped, as if he was afraid to continue. My heard pounded in my chest, unconsciously filling with hope.
He sighed. "Will you...uh..." he sighed again running a hand through his hair. It's rare to see Sasuke nervous about anything; he's normally so calm. His nervousness made me want to know what he was going to say even more.
"What?" I asked, trying not to sound too impatient. He stared at the ground, as if trying to decide something then stared back up at me. "Dance with me?" He asked, his voice not its usual strong self.
My heart jumped in my throat as I smiled brightly at him. He smiles shyly back at me before taking my hand and leading me onto the floor.
I felt the blood rush to my cheeks as he tentatively put his arms around my waist. I felt his whole body tense as I put my arms around his neck and slowly began to sway to the music.
After a minute he slowly begins to relax and move to the music with me. I hear him sigh contentedly as he unconsciously holds me tighter. I smile as I place my head in the crook of his neck.
It felt so right being in his arms, I have never felt so happy. I inhaled his sweet sent as I snuggled into him. He smelled like the forest, just like I thought he would. I sighed contentedly as I listened to the music, and danced in his arms. I could easily stay like this forever.
"Naruto..."
His voice broke me out of my thoughts. I pulled away slightly and looked up at him. He looked at me, his eyes shinning.
"Naruto I..." He began in a soft voice as he raised his hand to my cheek. He gently began to trace the outline of my face with his hand, as if he was trying to memorize every detail. I leaned in to the touch and smiled softly, urging him to continue.
"I love you." He said quietly, barely above a whisper.
My heart stopped, as my eyes widened. I couldn't believe what I just heard, I couldn't believe that he just told me what I dreamt of him telling me.
"W...what did you just say?" I asked him, afraid my ears were playing tricks on me. He smiled as he traced my lips with his fingers.
"I love you." He repeated as he continued to caress my face. I smiled brightly, tears formed in the rims of my eyes.
I reached up to touch his face, testing to see if he would pull away. He leaned into the touch as I gently caressed the side of his beautiful face. A stray tear escaped and streamed down my face. He quickly reached up and brushed it away.
I smiled as I interlaced our fingers together, brushing his bangs out of his face with my other hand.
"I love you too." I said quietly as he smiled brightly. My heart leaped in my throat, I have never seen him smile like that before. I traced his lips with my fingers, then gently brought his face to meet mine.
His lips were so soft, just as I had always imagined. I smiled into the kiss as he ran his tongue along my bottom lip, silently asking for entrance. I happily opened my mouth as our tongues battled for dominance.
Due to the need for air, we slowly pulled apart. I smiled as I once again buried my face in the crook of his neck as he wrapped his arms around me pulling me close. I could feel him smile as he buried his face into my hair, gently stroking it.
My heart soared; my dream had come true.
