Chapter 4: Dream lovers

3. The star.
Star light, star bright, Wish upon me every night. See me in a dream come true, Then I'll return to the deck for you.
~~~~~
It was three days after the incident with the snake card at the hotel and Wufei and Heero had left on a mission in Japan to destroy an Oz mobile suit parts manufacturing plant. With his two favorite people to bug gone Duo was bored out of his mind. "Quatre!" Duo whined, "Can't we go somewhere or something? I am going to go insane from boredom in a minute." He rolled off the couch and lay spread eagled on the floor, staring up at the ceiling listlessly. "Do you have any work to do on Deathscythe?" Quatre asked. "NO." Duo flopped over on the carpet and looked at the blonde, who was sitting at the dining table working on something. "I finished Deathscythe's repairs days ago. There's nothing I can do with him now."
Quatre sighed in exasperation. "Well if you wanted you could help me with this." He suggested. Duo got to his hands and knee's and dragged himself over to the table before he peaked over the edge and peered at Quatre's work. The rider card and the snake card where laid out before him on the table amid the piles of paper. The journal containing the riddles was open to a page mid way. "What are you doing?" Duo asked, curious. "I'm working on deciphering the riddles so it will be easier to find the keys but I'm not having much luck, I really can't figure out the one for the 'star' card. If I'm correct it was hidden by Heero's past self." Duo looked at him weirdly, "Heero hid it? We'll never find it!" Duo fell over again and shut his eyes.
Quatre sighed and went back to work, skipping the star riddle. Meanwhile Duo dragged himself to his feet and trudged up to his room. Throwing himself down no his bed Duo shut his eye's... and dreamed.
~~~~~
*// Duo looked around the dreamscape and found himself in a forest. All around him wild flowers were in full bloom and the tree's canopy closed over him, giving the ground a dappled look. Duo walked deeper into the forest and stumbled into a clearing where he found the one person he wasn't really expecting. "Heero?" the perfect solider turned around on his rock to look directly at the braided baka and did something totally out of character...he smiled.
Duo didn't think much of it as he thought it was only a dream and went to sit beside the dream Heero. The smile stayed on his face as Duo approached and spoke, 'You're actually being nice to me,' He thought, 'If this really is a dream then I never want to wake up.' Heero's smile became a grin as he leaned forward and kissed Duo on the lips. Duo kissed right back, after all, it's just a dream, right?
~~~~~
Quatre stood outside Duo's door casting it a confused look. Not long after the braided boy had gone to sleep he'd started to hear all kinds of muffled moans and shouts coming from behind the closed door. As tempted as he was to find out what was going on Quatre didn't dare go in for fear of what Duo might do to him. Quatre rubbed absently at his chest as he was prone to do when his space heart picked up something unusual from the other pilots. The blonde pilot of Sandrock finally moved away from Duo's bedroom door and went off to find Trowa.
Meanwhile, Duo heard the other pilot walking away through the faint haze of adrenalin that remained in his system. The dream about Heero had felt so real! His body felt like it had been through everything that his dream self had. Panting Duo pulled him self up and looked to see himself totally naked. Duo's mouth dropped open in shock. "Holy Shit!" he gasped, there on the floor was half of a card, the star card in fact. /see me in a dream come true./ The line of the riddle Quatre had read to him came floating to the top of his mind.
Suddenly the implications of this came crashing down on Duo. If he had half of the star card, then did that mean that Heero...had the rest? "Oh god no." Duo buried his face in his hands, "Heero is so going to kill me!" Little did Duo know that over five thousand miles away, a certain pilot of wing zero was thinking much the same thing.
~~~~~
In the end Duo didn't tell Quatre about the piece of the star card. He hid it amid the mess of pictures he kept in a box in Deathscythe. When Heero and Wufei returned from their mission he said nothing to Heero and went about setting his usual welcome home traps for Wufei. The other pilots noticed the fact that Duo and Heero where avoiding each other and began to wonder about what was going on with them. It was Wufei that first brought it up once he, Trowa and Quatre where alone. "Something's wrong with Yuy and Maxwell." He said bluntly. "Ever since the last mission when Yuy started dreaming he's been acting weird, he hasn't even yelled at the baka once since we got back."
Quatre's head shot around to look at him when he heard the word 'dreaming'. "What day?" He asked. "Tuesday." Wufei answered. "Same day as Duo." Trowa said quietly. "Did he make any noise or talk?" Quatre continued to question the china-man. Wufei's cheeks where suddenly tinged with crimson. "He was screaming out for Duo." Quatre looked at him strangely before a giggled escaped his lips. He tried to muffle the sound but it was a bit hard considering he was beginning to laugh. Trowa and Wufei waited for Quatre to calm down so he could explain. When the blonde finally did he sat there shaking with giggles as he muttered out the explanation. "Duo started to dream at exactly the same time as Heero did and I think it had something to do with a card."
"My space heart was picking up strange readings from both of them at the time almost like they had been connected together on a subconscious level. I'm almost certain that a card was able to link their dreams together." Wufei nodded stiffly while a small smile was to be found on Trowa's face. "It would make sense." Wufei said clearly. "They are most likely using their dreams to live out an alternate reality, of what they want in this world but can't get because of each other." Quatre nodded. Suddenly the sound of the front door opening and closing alerted them to Heero's arrival and they began to talk about other things.
~~~~~
Duo switched off the headset that allowed him to listen to the microphone he'd planted in the kitchen. He'd been right about Heero having the other half of the card but to find out that he and Heero had been living it out so the others could hear... "Holy shit." Duo swore under his breath. Putting the headphones down he opened the door and crept out into the hall. Heero's emotionless monotone floated up the stairs along with the voices of the other pilots. The braided Shinigami sighed and lent against the wall to pull on his black sneakers.
Skipping lightly down the stairs he ran for the front door as quietly as he could easing it shut behind him. He knew the other's had heard him but since he was out it didn't mater anymore. Duo stepped off the porch and started off through the forest toward where he had hidden Deathscythe. The gigantic scythe toting mobile suit knelt under the cover of the trees and a camouflage net. "Hey'ya there buddy." He greeted it as he usually did as he jumped from the gundams foot to the cockpit, which he'd opened from below via voice command. Sitting in the cockpit Duo pulled out a box from under the seat and opened it. There on top of the pile of photo's and paper clippings was the half of the star card.
It began to glow faintly as he lifted it out of the box and set it on top of a control panel as he returned the box to its place under the seat. "What am I going to do now?" Duo asked it dejectedly. However he got an answer he wasn't expecting. "You could put the pieces back together." Duo's head shot up to see Heero coming up from a crouch. Duo was surprised that he'd been able to sneak up on him and almost jumped out of his skin. Heero smirked and moved close enough to grab the half that Duo had. With out daring to look at Duo he pulled the other half of the card out of his jacket pocket and held them together.
There was a slight flash and the two parts of the card melted together. He handed it to Duo a moment later. "When I woke up and saw the card I got the felling it wasn't just a dream." Duo kept his gaze on the floor. He slumped in the pilots seat and sighed. Heero knelt down before him looked him in the eye. "I know." Heero finally spoke, Duo closed his eyes, knowing full well that he was running again, even if his feet weren't doing the work. "I would have thought for sure that you would have killed me if you ever found out I had a dream like that." He admitted when he looked at the pilot of Wing Zero once more.
Heero couldn't help but chuckle, breaking the tension that had hovered around their pair for so long. "Baka, I wouldn't have killed you." He said, his voice thick with amusement. "That's because I think..." The confidence that usually filled his words was suddenly gone as he trailed off and in barely a whisper he spoke the last few words, "...Aishiteru, Duo." Duo's eye's went wide very suddenly before a very wide grin broke out over his face and the braided teen plunged forward to throw his arms around Heero. The pilot of Wing was stunned for a moment at Duo's sudden reaction but as he shook it off he managed to get his arms up and held him tight, happy that he wasn't a complete fool.
~~~~~
Back at the safe house Quatre looked out the window. "Did you sense something?" Trowa asked quietly from the other side of the table. Quatre shook off the faint feeling he was getting and looked at his boyfriend with a slight smile on his face. "No I just saw a bird fly past the window." He lied smoothly. If Trowa was suspicious he didn't show it. He merely looked back down at the papers on the table where the cards they'd found had been placed in a line. He was stunned enough to make a facial expression though when he discovered another card on the end of the line...
The star.

Heeheeheeheeheehee ^_^
So that's it for another chapter, I just couldn't help myself, I put in a bit of a lemon. (voice no# 34: You are such a hentai...)
