********** Chapter 4 **********

It had been a month since Trowa had left; Quatre was now grown restless. He had told Jason about what Trowa had done; Jason had agreed to help Quatre hunt down Trowa when he was ready.

Now Quatre was sitting on his couch calling Jason.

"Hello?" A voice said in the phone.

"Hey Jason, it's me Quatre." Quatre said.

"Hey Q, did the whore come back?" Jason asked.

"No, that's why I'm calling; I'm ready to hunt him down!" Quatre snarled.

"Okay, you set the meeting time, my place." Jason said.

An evil smile came to Quatre's lips as he and Jason spoke.

**********

Trowa and the others developed a close bond over the month.

Trowa and Heero had a special bond and a feeling they weren't sure of.

Right now, Trowa was with Zechs sitting in the back yard.

Trowa was thinking of Laurie again; ever since the day Zechs and Trieze announced that they were going to wait for the birth of the baby to find out the gender; he couldn't really stop thinking of Laurie. How their baby and his baby connected was that he wanted to wait till the birth of his baby to find out the gender too.

Over the month, the biggest thing that everyone found out about Trowa was the fact that he was nineteen; Heero, Wufei, and Duo were all two years older than Trowa.

Zechs had noticed that Trowa seemed to be deep in thought at times; and wondered if anything was wrong; he doesn't know anything of Trowa's past yet.

Most of the time the things Trowa thought about besides Laurie was Quatre and his gang. Trowa wondered if he was really safe from Quatre with his new friends; what if Quatre found him, and threatened not only his life, but his new friends' lives as well. What was he going to do?

"Trowa, is something wrong?" Zechs asked from where he was sitting.

Trowa snapped out of his thoughts and looked at Zechs. Zechs had a worried look on his face.

"Oh, nothing, it's nothing." Trowa said.

"I know you're lying." Zechs said. "Now is the time to tell the truth. Come here and sit by me, tell me everything that is troubling you, your past, where you came from; maybe I can help."

Trowa sighed and got up; he made his way to Zechs, and sat down next to him on the swing. (One of those backyard bench swings for people to sit on quietly.)

"Well, where would you like to begin?" Zechs asked.

"Well, I was born in France; I had a little sister named Catherine. We got along fine when we were little; but she passed away when I was six; no one knows the cause." Trowa said.

Zechs held his hand and gave it a gentle squeeze.

"When I was ten; my mother passed away leaving me and my father. We both moved here to Japan; where he abandoned me." Trowa said. "I was a homeless kid for maybe six months before I met my lover."

"Your lover?" Zechs asked.

Trowa nodded and continued with the story.

"His name was Quatre. He was so nice and kind and took me in; he is also two years older than me; but he was also shorter than I am. He cared for me; only as a friend, until one night." Trowa said with a small smile on his face. "It was my eleventh birthday; and Quatre gave me a hand full of money and a list of things to do. I was gone the whole day; while he was at home making a small dinner. I wanted to be home to help him cook; but he sent me away for the day."

"Was he an orphan like you?" Zechs asked.

Trowa nodded.

"When I came home; I thought no one was home from the fact that there was no sound. When I walked into the kitchen; there was Quartre. He had a rose and held it out to me. I took it and I started to blush." Trowa said. "I wondered how he could have known what my favorite flower was; but I didn't complain. Then he pointed to the table; I saw a vase full of the beautiful roses. He walked over to the table and pulled out a chair, then he ushered me to sit down."

"He sounds like a gentleman." Zechs said.

Trowa's smile widened a little and he continued the story.

"He brought out many boxes of gifts; a few plates of food, and a cake. I had never been so happy in my whole entire life." Trowa said. "We eat the food and the cake; he gave me the presents for me to open. It was all so great. But one present, soared over all of the other gifts he gave me."

"What would that present be?" Zechs asked.

"He gave me himself." Trowa said. "When we were in the living room watching one of the movies he had given me; he told me he loved me. I was so shocked I nearly passed out. He leaned over closer to me, and kissed me; I was so happy. When we broke apart I told him that I loved him too, and that was the beginning of our relationship."

Zechs was smiling when Trowa looked at him; then there was a call from the house.

"Guys, dinner's ready!!!" Heero yelled.

"Will you tell me more about your past and problems later?" Zechs asked.

"Of course I will." Trowa said.

Trowa got up and helped Zechs off of the bench swing.

They both headed inside and found everyone around the table waiting for them.

As soon as they were seated; they did prayers, which they did rarely; then ate.

**********

Right now, Quatre was driving to another neighborhood; he was headed for Jason's house.

That afternoon after Quatre spoke to Jason; he called all of his gang members and told them to meet at Jason's house.

Quatre drove into a driveway; already packed with cars. Once he killed the engine; he hopped from his car and walked over to the house.

Quatre stepped up to the door and took out a key; he unlocked the door and stepped in.

"Hey, Boss, Quatre is here!" Austin yelled over to Jason.

"About time you got here Quatre!" Jason snapped.

"Sorry, I had other things to do." Quatre said as he sat down next to Austin.

Austin was Quatre's height; he had the same color hair; but his eyes were ice blue. If you got Austin mad; he would pretty much leaving being a bloody pulp.

"So, do all of you know why we are here?" Jason asked everyone.

Quatre smiled and the others were left clueless.

"We're here to hurt Trowa." Quatre answered.

All of the other gang members groaned.

"Quatre, give it up, Trowa doesn't love you anymore!!!" Screech yelled.

Quatre lifted up his shirt and drew out his gun; then he pointed it Screech.

"I dare you to say that again." Quatre said with his finger on the trigger.

Screech whimpered and lowered his head.

Quatre lowered his gun; and looked at Jason.

Jason was probably six and a half feet tall from the way he looked. He had jet-black hair; and golden eyes. Jason stood two three years older than Quatre. Every time Quatre looked into Jason's eyes; he felt a feeling he wasn't familiar with. Jason was in love with Quatre ever since the day he met him; but he never had the courage to tell him.

"Okay, now that I see that everyone is quiet; what do we do Quatre?" Jason asked.

"We look in the first towns over both sides; he couldn't have gotten far." Quatre said.

"When do we start?" J.J. asked.

"Next week. Right now, police are searching for something and won't let off this week." Quatre said.

This gave J.J. an idea; but he was going to need the help of both gangs; with out Jason's and Quatre's knowing.

This idea of J.J.'s; could keep Trowa safe and get Jason and Quatre together.

Quatre and Jason went outside for awhile; giving a chance J.J. to tell his plan to everyone.

"Hey guys, do any of you think Jason and Quatre, will make a good couple?" Jason asked everyone.

"Yes!!!" Everyone yelled.

"Well, raise your hand if to think Quatre should get off of Trowa's back." J.J. said.

Everyone raised one hand; some of them both.

"I have a plan that will get Jason and Quatre together." J.J. said with a smirk.

Everyone moved in closer so they could hear him.

**********

After dinner; Trowa and Zechs went back to the backyard.

"So, start where you left off?" Zechs asked.

"Okay." Trowa said. "About a year after the beginning of our relationship; Quatre started to change."

Zechs had a little worried look on his face when Trowa said 'Quatre started to change.'

"Usually, Quatre never even thought of his strength, but then all of a sudden, he started to grow stronger." Trowa said. "His temper grew too, people who got him mad usually ended up hurt. But I never knew this; so I never thought much of him growing stronger. That's until he started drinking."

While Trowa was telling his story; he and Zechs were unaware of Trieze and Heero listening in.

"When he'd come home sometimes, he'd be so drunk, he thought I was a stranger in his house; and he'd beat me." Trowa said.

"Trowa..." Zechs whispered.

Trieze and Heero lowered their heads; feeling sorry for Trowa.

Then Wufei and Duo appeared; behind Trieze and Heero; they whispered what was happening so far

"I'd stay and endure the pain. After his hangovers; he'd notice what he had done, and apologize; but all of this changed too soon." Trowa continued. "Quatre started doing drugs; he hid them from me so I wouldn't find out; but I did."

"How did you find out?" Duo asked.

Trowa and Zechs whipped their heads back to see the others.

"How long have you been listening?!" Zechs yelled.

"Long enough." Heero said. "Trowa, please let us hear your story too; please. We all want to be here for you." Heero pleaded while looking into Trowa's eyes.

Trowa looked into Heero's eyes; a feeling rushed over him, a feeling he didn't know; he just couldn't say no to them, especially Heero.

Trowa sighed and nodded.

"Alright, but why don't we go inside; it's starting to get cold out here." Trowa said.

When they all started to go inside; Wufei started to hear meowing; sounded more like mewing but still...

"Guys, listen." Wufei whispered.

Everyone stepped back outside and stayed quiet for moment; they could hear the mewing too.

"What the..." Trieze whispered as he followed the sounds.

Everyone followed him until he stopped, bent down, and looked under a patio table.

"Guys, I see maybe five or six kittens under here." Trieze said as he reached for one.

Trieze stood up with a white fur-ball in his hands.

The kitten was so small; it could probably fit in the palm of his hand.

Duo picked up three; Heero picked up two more; it was official, there were six kittens.

Everyone walked inside with the little kittens.

"What are we going to do with them?" Zechs asked.

"Well, I'll bring them to the pound tomorrow." Trieze said.

"No!!!" Everyone yelled at Trieze.

"Will you guys help take care of them?" Trieze asked.

"Of course we will." Duo said while nuzzling one.

"Okay, we can keep them." Trieze said.

"Thank you!!!" Everyone said to Trieze.

Zechs kissed Trieze.

Then everyone turned to Trowa; who was playing with the runt of the litter.

"Okay, where was I?" Trowa asked.

To be continued...
