He stared at the image in the mirror, Heero's cross dangling from his neck, his right arm extended, reaching for his toothbrush. Duo's head was spinning.. The cross in his dream was right here, hanging on the chain.. It was real.. so that meant... Heero? could he be real? He left the room with his hand on his head, checking for a fever or something to prove that he was hallucinating.
If Heero was real, where would he be? For all Duo knew, he could be living in Africa..
"Duo!" an angry voice yelled from the other room, interrupting on his train of thought. "What?" He shouted back before walking into the living room. A middle aged man eyed the topless boy. "Get to school, I don't want another phone call from that principal of yours." Duo rolled his eyes at the man and walked back into his room. Dr.G(1), his legal guardian had adopted him a few years back, for money, of course.. but Duo had suspected that he wanted some eye-candy as well.
He grabbed a shirt and his wallet and headed down the apartment elevator. He opened the door to the streets and let the morning air embrace him.

Walking down alleyways were nothing new to Duo. (Being a street kid and all..) He walked down the alley and stepped into an old, run down building with 'NO TRESSPASSING' painted onto the door. At the sound of the door creaking, a sandy haired boy(2), maybe two years older than Duo looked over to him. "Duo!" He called over to him, before giving him a friendly hug. He grinned at the smiling teenager. "Solo! How've ya been?" Solo shrugged in a dismissing sort of way. "I'm alive, I guess that's what matters.. You?" Duo smiled bitterly as he took in his friend's appearance, he was getting thinner by the week, and his clothing situation didn't seem to have gotten any better. Frankly, you could say he looked like a mess. "I don't think I can stand living with that hentai bastard anymore, but other than that, I guess I'm okay." Solo gave him a lop-sided smile and his blue eyes sparkled mischievously. "Still looking at ya like that, 'ain't he?" Duo rolled his eyes and laughed. Solo knew everything about him, they where like brothers, He and Solo.
Said boy smacked a hand to his forehead and laughed. "Argh, I'm so stupid! I forgot to tell ya, but I was walkin' around 'couple of days ago and I ran into this guy on the street, and he didn't seem ta' have a place to go, so I told him he can stay with Me an' Howard. He's in the back room if ya wanna meet 'im." Duo smiled. "Sure, in a min, Sorry man, I've been busy all week, I tried to come, but G has been tailing me and telling me that I shouldn't be hanging out with anyone on my free time. The old bastard needs to get out and live once and an' a while. I dont think he's had any human contact for months.." Solo smiled before commenting, "must be hell.." Duo took the time to look at Solo again. He noticed the dark circles underlining his eyes, and how pale he looked otherwise. "You sure you're okay?" Duo asked with concern showing in his eyes. Solo cast his blue-eyed gaze to the floor. "I don't know.." And back to Duo's. "I'm trying, but sometimes, I dont know what I try for.." Duo took the blonde into his arms. Solo and him had been close for years, so hugging wasnt awkward for them.
"Duo.. Thanks, I'll be okay. Don't cha worry!" Solo said in his normal, happy tone. Duo smiled slightly, as he said "I wanna meet this guy you've been talkin' about." Solo immediatly rolled his eyes and muttered something that sounded a lot like 'oh yeah..' Duo laughed again at his 'oh-so-forgetful' friend. "Hey, follow me." Solo led Duo to a small room with an old tattered couch in the corner, a small television set and a tiny kitchen. A teenager who seemed to be as old as he was, was sitting on the couch talking about something to Howard, the middle aged man who had taken Solo in, despite his poverty. "Hey Duo, I want ya to mee-" Solo started, but Duo cut him off, "Heero?" He said, unbelieving the sight before him.. as wide cobalt eyes stared at him.
