Secret Passions
Chapter 2.
I can't always be The rock that you see When the nights get too long And I just can't go on
A loud ring broke Heero out of his thoughts. He was laying on the couch, trying to decide how to do it. Gun, poison, over dose. Hell, make it all of them. After he figured out the code, he was gone. That damn puzzle, it had been perplexing him for months. Another ring and he was up off the couch and picking up the phone.
"Hello" As usual, he had on his perfect solder face. His voice showing none of the emotion he was feeling and using as few words as humanly possible.
"Hello, Heero, this is Quatre, I was just, well.. Are you ok? I know this is hard for you. It's hard for every one. I really don't think you should be alone right now. Trowa and Wufei are here. I think you should come too."
"....."
"Heero, are you there? I really must insist that you come. I'm taking this as a yes. Your plane ticket is in the mail. Oh, and we are in my summerhouse. Ok. I know you don't want to talk, so I will see you in 2 days. I expect yo-."
Heero interrupted him with a -screw-you-I-am-not-going-to-your-damn- summerhouse- "NO I wont be here anyways" and a click of the phone. He ripped it off the wall and through it across the room at the picture of him and Relena when they had gone the ball last year. The enraged boy walked over to the frame and did something he hadn't done in a long, long time- collapsed to the floor and cried. He sat on his knees with his head in his hands for hours until he could cry no more and went to sleep, on the floor, with the shattered frame in front of him.
*** (At Quatre summer house)
Quatre sat in his room with phone in hand ready to call Heero. The blonde boy was wondering how he was ever going to get Heero to come. He knew how stubborn he can be. He took a deep breath and dialed. Ring....Ring....
"Hello" answered a cold emotionless voice as was the way the perfect soldier talked most of the time.
"Hello, Heero, this is Quatre, I was just, well.. Are you ok? I know this is hard for you. It's hard for every one. I really don't think you should be alone right now. Trowa and Wufei are here. I think you should come too." He waited for Heeros answer.
"....."
Quatre sighed, as there was none. Trowa came in the room silently and put a reassuring hand on his shoulder. "Heero, are you there? I really must insist that you come. I'm taking this as a yes. Your plane ticket is in the mail. Oh, and we are in my summerhouse. Ok. I know you don't want to talk, so I will see you in 2 days. I expect yo-." He didn't get a chance to finish his sentence because he was interrupted with a NO I wont be here anyways and the click of a phone being hung up.
"Quatre are you alright?" Ask his concerned friend. "What's wrong, what did he say" Quatre let out a small worried chuckle. It's ok Trowa; it looks like we will have to go retrieve our friend. I do believe Duo was right when he said he was going to take his life. He said he wouldn't be there. Come, we must hurry. Get Wufei, we may need his help." And with a nod Trowa was out of the room and on his way to find Wufei.
