Star-Crossed Lovers Part 4
"Duo, you look fine. If Hilde is able to resist you, then I am sure every other person in the room will find it hard enough NOT to jump you."
"Alright, Quatre, if you insist. 'You' would know, of course," sighed Duo, still unhappy and nervous about the outcome of the upcoming evening.
"Have you given any thought to what I said earlier?" Quatre inquired, hoping that this could be just what Duo needed to get himself out of this hole he had dug himself into.
"Quatre, you know I have always been open minded about this sort of stuff. I mean, why would I still be your best friend if I wasn't? Hell! I even encouraged you guys! I just, well, until I know for sure about Hilde... I guess if it's still a nay, I can give it a try. What do I have to lose?"
"Alright, Duo! Now, come on. We have to meet Trowa outside. He'll be getting us into to the party. I can't wait to see him perform!"

"Good evening, Master Shinigami," Trowa said as he bowed in front of Duo, then he turned to Quatre, and swept him up into his arms. "Good evening to you as well, my Kitten."
Duo smirked at the two kissing, as if time had stopped for them alone. He wished he had that with someone, anyone. Coughing to finally get their attention, "Good evening to you too, my dear Clown. So, where will you lead us tonight? Aside from the disaster of going to the Yuys' masque uninvited, of course."
Trowa laughed. "Of course, Shinigami. Of course. Yes, we are going to the Yuys' masque, but uninvited we are not." He produced an invitation from his pocket. "I do believe it says Trowa Barton and friends... And, since I do consider you two my friends, you are all invited, Maxwell or not. Plus, to deny an invited guest is just criminal. Then, they will have a furious Shinigami to deal with."
"Ah, but you forget that I am but Love's slave in disguise."
"No, no, not Love's slave, but her protector and confidant. You seek Love. You embrace her to her fullest and her cruelest. You love and continue to do so, until you can no longer function. She must adore you, with all the attention you dote upon her. But, you must no longer just let her come to you, no! You must seek her out in all her glory. You'd be surprised. Love can be found in the strangest places..." Turning to Quatre, "Right, my Kitten?"
Quatre blushed. "Yes, Trowa-love. Now, let us away, dear Shinigami, and hope that you be Love's slave no longer, but her ally in battle!"
