Double Take Another Gundam
Chapter 10
A/N: Well you asked for it so here it is, the happy ending.
It had been a week since their battle in the field. Heero was recovering from a broken leg and ribs, and was asleep in his room, so Duo decided to go for a walk. He walked past the old warehouse and remembered when he and Morrigan were together in the rain, but he also remembered when Jason had made her blow it up.
Jason. Who would have thought he would drive himself crazy and self- destruct, only to end up living in a mental institute for the rest of his life. Duo remembered that day perfectly. Jason had been standing above him, his beam canon pointed at him, his finger on the trigger, ready to fire when all of a sudden he dropped his gun. Duo had been to exhausted and his gundam to damaged to move, so he just lay there waiting for Jason to pick up the gun and fire. But he never did, and after what seems like ten minutes Jason let out a blood-curdling scream and pressed the self- destruct button on his gundam. Duo had managed to survive the explosion, but had spent most of the week repairing his gundam, trying to erase Morrigan from his mind, but to no avail.
He stopped walking when he realised he was ast the library where he had asked Morrigan to the dance, where she had unwillingly broken his heart for the first time, when Jason had cornered her outside the auditorium. As he continued walking he fought back tears, and when he came to the field where he had lost Morrigan for good he could hold them back no longer. He completely broke down by the time he had reached the small forest on the other side of the field.
"Why did you have to be such an idiot!!!" he sobbed as he looked back at the heap of charred metal that was once her gundam.
He continued to walk up through the forest toward the cliff where he and Morrigan had shared their first kiss. He had thought of turning back many times but something kept urging him to go to that spot.
He finally come to the end of the forest and looked up the hill at the large tree, where he saw a person. Duo turned to leave when he saw the person stand up. He was almost into the forest when he heard a familiar voice call out to him, when he heard it he tripped over his feet and fell to the ground.
"Duo. Didn't I tell you before to watch where you're going?" the girl said trying to sound funny but Duo heard the sorrow in her smooth voice.
"Well at least I didn't hit anyone on the way down this time." he replied, forgetting the tears that were still streaming down his face. He ran up the hill as fast as he could, but stopped halfway out of disbelief.
"Wait a second, this can't be real, I saw you die..." he said and looked up to see the girl running down the hill toward him. She was almost there when she tripped on a rock and fell, right into Duo's arms, where he held her gently, he face buried in his chest. Duo could feel the dampness of her tears through his shirt and hear her muffled sobs. After a few minutes she lifted her head and stared at him, taking in every part of his face. She gazed into his tear-filled, cobalt blue eyes and followed his tears down to his lips. When she looked up again she saw he was doing the same.
Duo stared in amazement at the girl in his arms. She had chocolate brown hair that went just past her shoulders, and the most mesmerizing prussian blue eyes. Her tear stained cheeks were rosy against her pale skin from the run she had just made.
For the longest time they just stood there staring at each other, then Duo started to walk up the hill toward the large tree at the top. They sat at the base of the tree, just looking out over the horizon at the city below as the sun began to set.
"Um.. Duo?" said the girl meekly
"Yes?" replied Duo
"Can... Can... Can you ever forgive me for hurting you so much?" she said now looking pleadingly at Duo. There was no reply and she began to cry again.
"I know how much you must hate me right now, but I just want to say that when Jason was going to shoot you, I tried to save you because... because..." she paused, thinking about something. "I LOVE YOU!!!" she looked at Duo once again, and seeing no reaction began to get up. But as she did she felt a hand grab her, and she sat down again her head lowered. But she felt a hand under her chin lifting it. She looked up to see Duo smiling at her as he leaned in closer...closer...closer, then she could feel him kissing her.
"I love you too Morrigan." he said when they separated. They were both smiling at each other and Morrigan wrapped her arms around Duo's neck and kissed him. When they came apart again they sat side by side against the big tree and watched the sun setting over the city beneath them.
THE "TRUE" END
