Disclaimer: I dun own Sailor nor do I own Gundam wing. This will go for all chapters since I hate repeating myself like a broken record.
A/n: I know this fic seems to support the fact that one should be slender to get people to like you.. well to be honest that's shit too so plain and simple this is fiction and doesn't lay anywhere near my beliefs in life.
Duo was on cloud nine. He made his way into the house he shared with his friends. It was now 8:30 and he was ready to lay on the moves with the girl of his dreams. He was pretty sure everything would work to his advantage as well because well, He's good looking, Charming, funny, and popular. Where could he go wrong?? He walked up to the stairs of his house and saw not a pretty sight. Serena with quatre's hand on her head while Mina was busy throwing a fit with the whole sitation as well as her friends Rei and Lita.
"Just wait a minute and you can have him back!!!" Serena yelled while wincing every few seconds.
"I bet you didnn't even get your hair caught on his watch.. you're jhust trying to keep him away from me!!" Mina nearly yelled. "I WANT YOU-" She started to yell but Heero clamped his hand over her mouth.
"Thank you." She sighed.
"What's going on??" Duo made himself known and Mina then bit Heero's hand.
"Duo!!! She's trying to steal Quatre away from me."
"That's far from it." Quatre knew of the feelings his braided friend had for the blonde stuck to his watch. "We were all playing Twister and Heero moved wrong and we all fell. My watch is currently stuck to her hair."
"Was stuck!!" Serena declared ripping a few strands. "You can pick those out later." She said and the doorbell just rang. Duo, who was still standing next to the door opened it and stared the the pretty woman in front of him.
"Uhmm… Hi I'm Hotaru Tomoe. I'm looking for my niece Serena??" Hotaru said straightening out the dress she had been wearing at the moment.
"H-H-Hotaru Tomoe?!?!" Mina pushed Duo away and rushed to the door. "OMG.."
"Y-You're Hotaru Tomoe!! Super Model!!" Rei gaped at the woman then Lita, Mina and Lita sqealued uncontrollably.
"Don't mind them.. They were the main group who traumatized me last time I was here at Peacecraft Academy" Serena said to Hotaru catching the attention of Duo and Quatre.
"You went to Peacecraft Academy before??" Quatre asked.
"Quatre and myself have been going to Peacecraft Academy since sicth grade. We've never seen you before." Duo said.
"Sure you have.. you just don't remember yet." Serena grabbed her Aunt's hand and left. Quatre and Duo looked at eachother.
"DO you remember her??" They both asked. "No." they both responded and watched her go.
"I have to go home." Mina stared at her watch. "Same time tomorrow Quatre??"
"no.. I won't be in school.. I have to go do something." He said walking up the stairs to his room. Mina stared after him.
"Don't worry about it babe. It's an every year thing. He always go out and visit Usagi's parent's. Kind of a farewell wish from Usagi herself."
"I don't even want to hear about blimpie and her problems!!" Mina said walking out of the house.
*~*~*~*~
"Okaasan… Otousan." She knelt if front of the graves she hadn't seen since before she left. Tears spilled form her blue eyes. "I miss you." She said.
"We'll meet you in the casr Serena." Amara said and Serena nodded.
"I guess I spent so much time hating Mina for being so vein and I've been so self-conscious about myself I haven't even come to visit your grave in four years." Her voice craked as tears spilled from her eyes. I've been so worried about myself and here you two have been laying in your graves. Gomen Nesai." She said bowing her head as tears dropped onto the rosses she brought with her. "Well needless to say I'm back here and although things haven't gotten bad yet I can tell they will eventually." She placed the half dozen of white roses next to the tomb stones. "Ashiteru." She whispered running her delicate fingers over the cold stone then made her way over to the car. Maybe she could convince Amara into stopping and getting her some food.
"No Duo." Quatre was searching for his car keys.
"Oh come on!! She's gets along with you well."
"Duo… Trust me on this one.. Serena does not like you and no amount of talking you up will work." Quatre picked up his keys and the bouqut of flowers he bought. "I mean what part of 'I hate you Duo Maxwell I have and always will!!' did you not understand??"
"Well I messed up and I dumped my soda in her hair today, when I was walking over to her. She seemed to be grateful when you helped her clean up some" Duo said. "Please Q-man??"
"I'll give it a shot but I don't have any gurantees." Quatre got into his car and drove over to the cemetary.
He got out of the car in time to see Serena walking towards a car trying to dry her eyes. He watched her for a moment obviously unnoticed by her. He took in a deep breath and made his way over to the grave he goes to visit every year. He stopped short when he saw roses already laying there and wondered if Serena had come to this grave and if so why?? He immediately squashed that thought and set his flowers next to the ones already laying there.
"Hi Mr and Mrs. Tsukino." He said gently. "I'm back again just like I promised. I also promised that as soon as I find Usagi I'd let her know how much I missed her." He smiled a small smile. "I can hear you now Mrs. Tsukino. 'Quatre!! You're too shy!! You have to tell her that you like her. If you don't it will be too late and someone else will want to take hold of her affection.' That was when I thought from childhood friends to lovers.." He couldn't help but turn a bit red then. " Was nothing more than a cliché." A sigh escaped his lips followed by a soft murmur of Usagi's name rolling off his lips. He looked at the flowers that were already there and then the face finally clicked. "Usagi…" He gasped looking at the flowers. "It couldn't be… could it??" He looked at the car that was now pulling away. "Usagi.." He smiled gently. "You did come back to me, didn't you??"
