~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~~*~*

"So Heero where we heading?" Duo asked as his head popped up on the screen.

"Earth, we are staying at Winners mansion."

"Is that alright with Q-man?" Duo asked him, but before Heero could respond with an I don't care if it's all right look, Quatra popped up.

"Its alright Duo I'd be perfectly happy if Miss Usagi stays at my home." Quatra said politely. Usagi giggled slightly making Quatra blush.

"Quatra, you don't have to call me Miss, just call me Usagi or bunny I don't mind." She said to the blushing boy.

"Alright Miss..Usagi, bye." Quatra said his face once again turning red then blinking out.

"Well I guess well see each other on earth, see ya babe." Duo winked and his face also blinked out. Usagi giggled.

"Hee-chan your friends are funny." She giggled again when she saw him scowl. He looked down at her when her giggles died away and saw a single tear run down her face.

He took his hands of the controls and wiped the tear away, he couldn't stop him self from doing it and his mind was screaming at him to stop, but he couldn't he was drawn to her like a moth to a flame and deep down he knew he didn't want it any other way.

"Hee-chan, why didn't he tell me what was going on, why didn't he trust me?" she cried as she buried her face in his chest. Heero began to stroke her hair, for once letting his emotions go for a little while.

"He did trust you Tenshi, and he loved you dearly, he didn't want you to go through life worrying about him, he knew that one day it would have destroyed you. He wanted you to have a normal life." Heero said eyes clouded over as he remembered his child hood.

Usagi leaned her head back and looked in to the glazed over cobalt blue eyes of the boy she had just met, but also felt a connection to.

"Hee-chan," she said silently, she lifted her hand up and caressed his cheek lightly, "Hee-chan what was your childhood like?" she asked quietly.

Heero's eyes became clear when he realized that something soft, warm and comforting was touching his cheek, he brought his hand up and clasped hers in his.

"I didn't have one." was his simple, but once again emotionless reply.

"Will you tell me about it someday?" she asked as he let go of her hand and began to pilot the Gundam once more, with her snuggling up against his chest.

Heero looked down at the beautiful, innocent angle in his lap. 'Someday Tenshi, someday' he thought as he watched her fall asleep.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

When they reached earth Heero and the rest of the boys flew to the secluded base lowered the Gundams in to the building and landed on the cold cement floor, the ceiling slowly closing after them. Heero noticed that Usagi was still sleeping so he gently scooped her into his arms and jumped out of the Gundam.

Usagi woke up as she felt Heero jolt against her as he landed on the floor. "Where are we?" she asked groggily when she saw the roof above them closing.

"It's not important." He said and walked over to the others waiting near the exit, he looked down and noticed that her eyes were drooping; he leaned down and whispered in her ear.

"Get some sleep Tenshi." She smiled and nodded her head. Once again she brought her hand up and caressed his cheek, she then smiled contently closed her eyes and promptly fell asleep. Heero watched her for a moment then turned to see a smiling Quatra with a knowing look in his eyes. Heero growled and once again brought up his shields.

'Stupid stupid! Control your self you baka!' Heero thought then proceeded in heading out the door gesturing slightly with his head for the others to follow behind.

"Hey Hee-man can we go for some ice cream?" Duo asked as he jumped in to the black Limousine waiting outside for them.

"Maxwell you baka! Is all you think about, food?" Wufei growled out angrily. Duo smiled at him happily.

"Nope, that and girls." He said cheerfully.

"Injustice!" Wufei cried.

"Shut up." Came the emotionless reply from Heero as he noticed that with all the commotion Usagi was starting to stir. Wufei and Duo immediately stopped what they were doing and settled back into their seats, Wufei muttering things along the lines of "Stupid American baka" and Duo happily staring out of a window.

Heero watched as Quatra leaned over and whispered something in to his lover's ear, he watched as Trowa's eye shifted to him for a moment then back to Quatra. What Heero didn't notice was the slight smirk that showed up on the boys face.

Usagi groggily woke up but refused to open her eyes when the morning sun penetrated through the window and cast her face in the light.

' O goddess it was only a dream' she thought when she felt she was in a comfortable bed instead of a boys arms. She opened her eyes and what she saw sent her sitting up in bed fully awake. It hadn't been a dream!

Sleeping on the window seat in the room was Heero Yui and she was sleeping in his bed in his room.

She got of the bed and walked over towards him she was about to wake him when she noticed the black around his eyes from lack of sleep and decided to let him sleep.

She walked out the open door and headed down the hall looking for anything that may resemble a kitchen when she found it she was startled to see someone occupied it, Duo.

"Good morning Duo." she said quietly from the doorway. She watched as he jumped in his seat and turned towards her.

"Gees babe, you scared me. Sleep well?" he asked as she came farther in to the kitchen and he offered her a seat.

"Yes, very much so." She said as she nodded her head in thanks when he offered her a chair. "Do you by any chance know what Heero likes to eat for breakfast?" she asked the braided boy.

"Yeah, he likes scrambled eggs, French toast, waffles, pancakes, donuts. anything that's sweet that you can have for breakfast because he didn't get to eat them when he was growing up." Duo partially explained.

"How bout I make French Toast, pancakes and eggs with some Tea for breakfast for you guys.would you like that?" she asked him as she got up and went to the fridge and rummaged through it to get all the ingredients.

"That'd be great! I'll go wake everyone up." Duo said excitedly and started to run towards Heero's room.

"Stop! I'll wake Heero when everything's ready to eat so that it's a surprise, you just go and wake everyone else ok?" She asked Duo.

"Got ya." Duo said winked and was out the front door in a flash. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Hope you guys like this!
