Secret Passions
Chapter 5
Dreams again
By your side by your side day and night
I will be always
There's a place in my heart in my heart
Just for you always
I ain't going nowhere Martina McBride
10 pm Final ball of the season
"Duo, there you are." Quatre almost missed him. He was heading up the stairs when he got there.
"Oh, Hey Quat, I was just, looking for something to eat." Duo knew he saw through that lie, but he was bored. Tired of this ball. He wanted to go looking around.
"Well, let me show you where it is, follow me. And don't call me Quat" Quatre turned around, making sure he was following, and led him to the food.
"Quatre, leave him there, he looks like he'll stay put for a while. Find Relena, she went outside on the balcony" Came the voice of the ever- watchful Heero. "I'm heading there, but it will take me a minute, go ahead and give her the head set back."
"Ok" Answered Quatre
"Relena" Quatre put his hand on her shoulder. She turned around, startled
"Oh, Quatre, it's you." She sighs, "Quatre, can I tell you something?"
"Of course, but first Heero wanted me to gi-"She cut him off
"You can't tell Heero," She said quickly. In Quatres ear Heeros said quietly to wait to give the head set back. Pretend to shut the set off.
"Let me shut this off" " Ok, what is it" Relena sighed again and looked out at the stars.
"Its Heero, he's become obsessed with keeping me safe that I fear he's got no life other than watching for some assassin that never comes. I love him to death, but not the kind of love that's romantic. I love him like a brother. I'm sure that's how he feels about me. Like a sister. He doesn't feel romantic love towards girls. I guess he likes guys. But he's always protecting me, he wont ever find that someone who will love him and he will love romantically. And until he does, I have to hide that I have found someone, I don't know how he would react if he knew I was in love with Dorothy. We have to hide it. Quatre, do you think he will react badly if I tell him. I'm scared to."
"Wow, I.that's a lot of worrying, I think you should know he already knows, I didn't-'' "Don't tell her" Heero whispered, "I didn't shut the head set off, he's hear everything you said."
"Let.ME.TALK.TO.HIM." Screamed an enraged Relena. Quatre gave her the headset.
"What a fit for something so innocent as ease dropping, coming princess."
"HEERO HUY, GET DOWN HERE NOW, I WANT TO TALK TO YOU IN PERS- AHHH"
Heero had dropped down from his perch over the balcony, scaring the shit out of Relena.. Relena had tears streaming down her cheeks. "YOU JERK, YOU PIG, BIG JERKY FAT PIG!!"
"Relena, shut up, you're worrying the guests." That shushed her up. She walked past him and into the now silent ballroom.
"I would like to apologize for that episode. Please as you were." She went back to the balcony, this time with Dorothy "Heero, you are dismissed until you get a boyfriend."
"You can't be serious. If I wanted a boyfriend I would get one, the fact I don't want one is why I don't have one. I will not be terminated. You will have to kill me before I leave you unguarded."
"I may just do that." Relena snapped and stalked off. She still had the head set on.
"Relena, I know you didn't mean that, I'm sorry, please forgive me, if I come down and socialize will you forgive me?" Heero asked through the headset. He had gone back to the empty musicians balcony. Relena merely nodded.
'Well at least I will get to talk to Duo now' he thought to himself and made his way to the food, where he was sure to be.
A quiet thump had woken Heero up out of his sleep. 'What was that?' Heero rolled over and turned on his bedside lamp. "Shit!" He had knocked his laptop of the bed in his sleep, 'Damn it, it wont turn on. Well, I don't feel like messing with it right now, I'm tired.' YAWN YAWN 'I'm going to sleep' He laid back down and went off to a dreamless sleep.

9:45 a.m. Trowas bedroom
Trowa has just woken up; Quatre curled up in his arms. Trowa slowly opens his eyes, looking down at his blonde beauty with all the love in the world shining through his eyes. 'It wasn't just a dream this time. It really happened.' Trowa kissed the top of his head gently before slipping out of bed and into the bathroom. Thinking about last night and the water running for his shower, he doesn't here Quatre get up. Trowa gets into the shower; the water so hot, mirrors steamed and the room has a thin blanket of steam. Quatre goes into the bathroom, and decides to do something he'd never dared dream of until last night. He disrobes and slips into the shower with Trowa. Trowa, who has his eyes closed and is standing under the showerhead; water running down his rock hard body. He is totally immersed in his thoughts from last night/early morning and doesn't even notice Quatres silent steps.
"Trowa" Quatre tenderly says while placing a hand on his chest.
"Qu-Qu-Quatre" a shocked Trowa stutters out. "I must be losing my touch, I didn't even hear you come in, but since you are here," Trowa smiles mischievously and wraps his arms around him, pulling there naked bodies together, "We might as well have a little fun."
"I think your right" And Quatre kissed his lips ever so gently.

An hour later, Duo Maxwell showed up, they are in the living room.
"Well, I came here for one reason, but that can wait" He smiled evilly; there was no way in hell he would pass this up. Quatre in Trowas lap, he couldn't believe it. "So, Quat, do you sit on all your "just friends" like that?"
"Duo, it's Quatre, and you know it. Damn it, I hate "Quat" "
"I know, that's why I do it." He chuckles to himself. "You didn't answer, do you sit on all your "just friends" like that?"
Quatre smiled, "why yes, I do" 'I'll fix him, forgive me Trowa!' He turned to Trowa and kissed him quickly. Wufei was sitting in a chair adjacent, totally oblivious to reality at the moment.
Duo groaned. "Yuck, don't to that in front of me."
"Ahh, Your jealous. It's ok Duo" Quatre gets up and sits on Duos lap and attempts to kiss him on the cheek. Duo stands up, dumping the uncontrollably shaking with laughter Quatre to the floor. Trowa scoops him up, giving Duo a dirty look. "Ohh, Trowa, I was just kidding, I only sit on your lap and kiss you, ok?" He nods and kisses Quatre, he's a little possessive but that's just because he doesn't want to lose what he has dreamed about for the years he has known Quatre.
"What, what is this, when did this happen?" Asks a Wufei who looks like he's about to pass out. Duo starts to laugh.
"Wu-man, what have you been drinking?"
"Ohh, just the usual, oh, and a bottle of wine Drix and I never opened." he just trailed off after that.
"What a laugh this is. Quat on Circus boys lap, Wu-man's dunk, now all we need is Heero out here laughing and telling jokes. Speaking of him. How did it go?
"Well, he tried to shoot me, Wufei, and himself, then decided not to. He's sleeping still."
"He wasn't to happy about coming, but I did notice when I was in his room to pack some clothes for him while you and Wufei were dealing with him, his laptop was open to something you may find interesting." Quatre added, casting out the good mood that had been. "I sent a copy of it to myself. It's a letter from Drixle," Wufei sobered up at that. "She wrote it and set it to be sent only in the case she detonated her gundam. I'm sorry Wufei, but I don't think she is alive. I'll bring up the letter. Follow me to the lab. He led them through the training facility to the lab. There Quatre pulled up the letter in his e-mail box.
Heero Huy
If you are reading this, I have self-destructed my gundam. This is set to be sent only in the case I self-destruct. I am sure that after the war, to prevent it again you will send the Gundams to the sun. That's fine, but be sure, those are not all. There was a sixth suit you never new of, a sixth gundam pilot that was never capable of the discipline we Gundams have, he was too care free. His training was terminated. And he was made to promise to take the secret to the grave. I don't know why, but I think that you should keep this to yourself. Think about it. Six Gundams make more sense. I found out that the location and identity of the sixth gundam was in a code I never saw the need to figure completely. I pass this to you because we surely need the help, even if he isn't the ideal gundam. That's really sexist of me to assume that the sixth gundam is a man considering me. Attached is the code.
Drixel P.s. If you are reading this I am most surly dead. Make sure that Wufei knows I love him.
HHDDaabbeeDDD111aa11144445aa11FFFFFFccLLLLLaa333aa11HHkk1111
After everyone had read the letter, Wufei turned white as snow and walked out.
"Duo, aren't you a whiz at codes, why don't you try this one?, and Quatre, run it through the computer." Duo looked completely blown away.
"Um, yeah, Quatre if you will, well, uh, just send me a copy of this, yeah, thanks gotta go, bye." And he left quickly, but Quatre heard him say "God help the fool" what ever he meant bye that.
