Two days after receiving the email, Duo found himself standing in front of the Royal Sanq Residence. Sighing to himself, he entered the gates, knowing that this might very well be the last time he'd get to see Heero before the wedding.
'I wonder if he got my letter,' Duo thought to himself as he went through the palace's security clearance process.
His thoughts were interrupted as Heero himself showed up to clear him and lead him personally into Relena's home.
Heero didn't say much as he walked Duo to his room, and Duo was about ready to pull his hair out by the time they reached his living quarters. Never good at keeping with the silence, Duo was the first one to break the tension that shrouded them like a second skin.
"Umm..." he cleared his throat, "where are the guys?"
"Hn, they're not coming."
Duo's eyes widened at that statement and just about exploded. The tension he was feeling being around Heero already had him on the edge, now that Heero knew his feelings only worsened the tension.
"WHAT?! You said we were having a reunion, what do you mean they can't come? I would have thought that at least Quatre would have been able to make it. He's always the one wanting to keep contact with the lot of us. Trowa would come if only for Quatre and Wufei would show up just because it would give him a chance to be away from "wicked onnas" or some shit like that. What do you mean they *can't* come?"
"Duo," Heero's monotone gave Duo pause. "The reason they can't come is because I didn't invite them."
"Come again?"
"I said I didn't invite them."
Duo stared wide eyed, "you *lied* to me?"
"No, you are a gundam pilot, I am a gundam pilot, we are both at the same place, so this is a gundam reunion. There is nothing misleading about that."
Duo groaned, seeing that Heero indeed hadn't lied, at least not the way he was explaining things and plopped down on the bed.
"Then why did you call me here?"
"I had some things I needed to talk to you about. For now though, get some sleep, I'll have your dinner brought up to you. We'll talk things over in the morning, once you've rested.

Violet Mai: I'll try and make the chapters a little longer. I'm not sure where to go with this story since it was only supposed to be the little ficlet in the first chapter. But I'll try!
Wingzdream: Thank you for that idea. I think that's exactly where I'm going to go with this fic. ^.^
