Again, gomen minna-san. Sumimasen. Osoku narimashita. I have been learning Nihongo, or Japanese, at school and I'm getting a ton of homework and projects. I still have a bunch of essays to do as well as an art project. Then there's the 40 hours of community service I have to do. Don't worry, I didn't do anything bad...it's required at my high school to do community service. So I have joined about Nana or Hachi (7 or 8) clubs, including a Japanime club . Ok, I'll stop rambling now. Gomen nasai. ::bows::

A week after the carnival, Duo planned a big beach party, complete with bonfire and barbeque. He invited all he could to join in the fun. Then he went on an elaborate shopping spree, buying food for the barbeque as well as drinks. He also bought some floaties so he could just chill inside the water, but there was one specific floatie that looked very much like a shark.....ANYWAYS, Quatre and Trowa volunteered to buy a couple of things as well. They went out and bought a volley ball complete with net. They were also the ones that went to buy beach towels and the actual barbeque. Duo suspiciously eyed the two, but kept quiet, although there was a very suspicious smile on his face. It was if he had just realized something....hehehe.
In the meantime, Duo called up Sasha and explained to her his plan of attack. She laughed and told him that she wished she could be there and Duo promised to fill her in with every detail of what happened. He also promised that there would be footage. "Who were you calling?' Heero asked curiously.
"Just a friend of mines," Duo said vaguely. "She just wanted to talk about a few things."
"Oh," Heero said stupidly.
"Yeah..." Duo said. It was becoming quite awkward, so Duo left to stuff the groceries into the fridge. Heero left to pack the towels and such into bags and stuffed them into the car. And soon the day of anticipation and fun came and everyone was very excited. There were many cars packed with lots of people and their belongings. They arrived at the beach not long after the ride and everyone ran out towards the warm sand. Everyone helped set up something, except for the queen, who stood there and bugged people.
"Why not help us set up instead of telling us what to do?" Wufei said irritable. After all, he was to be told what to do by a woman. (A/N: More like a ::coughbitchcough:: Ahem, sorry. I uh...had a sore throat...) Relena sniffed and left to go bug Heero. Not long after, everyone finished setting up the barbeque, the volleyball nets, the beach towels, the food, the umbrellas, and all those things ya do at the beach.
"Alright! Let the fun begin!" Duo shouted. He let out a whoop before running across the sand and diving into the water, dragging a floatie not far behind. Many people laughed while others dove in after him. Soon there were screams and splashing heard in the water as well as laughter. Duo was swimming around and grabbing people by their ankles and jumping on them. That is until the other pilots ganged up on him and forced him underwater. Luckily he escaped and once again terrorized the others with an mischievous grin. He threw his floatie at Wufei who caught it and threw it back. Duo ducked and it hit Catherine.
"Hey!" she cried out in surprise. She smiled an evil smile and threw it back at Wufei, who dodged and it hit Trowa. Soon the floatie was being thrown everywhere. And for some reason, it seemed to hit Relena quite hard.....and Duo seemed to have disappeared. Not long after, Relena was seperated from the rest of the group and a thin fin that shone in brightly in the sun headed quickly towards a certain sandy blonde haired female....
::bump:: Relena turned around and screamed loudly. "Help me help help help help!!! There's a shark!" Everyone turned around in alarm. Duo quickly let go of the shark and swam towards the shore as Heero ran towards Relena. Duo had almost reached the shore but he bumped into someone. That person grabbed him and lifted him out of the water.
"Gah!" Duo cried out. Trowa was holding him up. Suddenly Quatre was behind him and Trowa forced Duo back in the water while Quatre quickly pulled down Duo's swim trunks. "What are you doing!?" he yelled. Trowa let go of Duo and laughed. Luckily the water was waist high. Quatre also laughed and swung Duo's trunks around as people began to look. Duo began to realize that they this was to be taken advantage of. If he played along he wouldn't be suspected about bringing the shark floatie.
"This isn't funny you two! Gimme back my swim trunks!" He grabbed for his trunks but Quatre threw them over to Trowa, who backed away while holding his trunks tauntingly.
"Throw it here!" Hilde called out with a laugh. Trowa complied and threw Duo's trunks over to her. "Come and get them Duo!"
"Wait! What about the shark!?" Relena screeched.
"It's a floatie," Heero said as he picked it up. Relena turned red in embarrassment.
"I knew that!"
"I'm sure you did," Wufei said sarcastically as he rolled his eyes. Relena pouted but no one paid any attention to her as they passed around Duo's trunks and evading him. Duo tried as best as he could to get his poor swim trunks back, but everyone was having such a good time throwing it around he gave up.
"Looks like he's given up," Catherine said.
"Well then, we'll just have to leave with them since he doesn't seem to want them anymore," Hilde suggested innocently.
"Good idea," Catherine complimented.
"No!" Duo cried as he went after the two, but they ran out onto the sand and Duo stood in the water naked. "Come on! I need my pants back!"
Wufei laughed. "Too bad Maxwell. That's what happens when you let women get the better of you," he said a matter of factly. Too bad he didn't see Sally come up behind him and pull his trunks down.
"Gah!" he yelled. Sally laughed and ran onto the beach to join Catherine and Hilde.
"So what was that about letting women get the better of you?" Duo asked sarcastically.
"Shut up!" He turned to the women on the beach."Give that back onna! Just wait til I get out of here!"
"What's stopping you from doing so Wufei?" Sally called out to him. Wufei did nothing but growl and slap the water in anger. But both he and Duo soon turned around as cries of surprise and anger sounded behind them. They quickly turned and saw more women laughing and running away as the rest of the pilots and other guys there were stripped of their swim trunks.
"This is gonna be make us a lot of money," Noin said as she scanned the beach water with her camcorder. "Oh look! It's Zechs! Looks like he was also a victim."
"Ack!" Duo and the others cried out as Noin turned the camera lense towards them. "When did you start recording!?" Duo shouted.
"Since Trowa had your trunks," Noin responded.
"You had better stop giving these women ideas Trowa," Heero growled.
"It's not my fault they all chose to do this to us!" Trowa protested. Duo scanned the water as the other argued and shouted at the girls.
"Yes!" he yelled. He had spotted one of his floaties and quickly swam towards it. He soon grabbed it and fitted it to cover his er....private area. He quickly ran onto the sand and chased after the women. All the while Noin recorded it with a smile. Duo finally retrieved his trunks from Hilde who pouted and huffed in disappointment. Unfortunately there was a moment where poor Duo had tripped and the floatie exposed a bit of....ok no need to know this. Anyways, Duo slipped his pants on and ran after the other women and began to retrieve many swim trunks.
"Hurry up and throw them!" Heero shouted. Duo grinned as he recieved an idea.
"Why should I?" he asked. There were many cries of protest from both the women and the men.
"This is not fair! You're stealing our idea!" Catherine yelled. Duo shrugged.
"Hand over our pants or we'll hurt you!" Wufei yelled angrily.
"You can't get out now so ngh," Duo said as he stuck out his tongue. He stepped back as Relena tried to grab for Heero's trunks.
"Give me Heero's trunks!" she demanded.
"Sorry Princess, but I got them first so back off." He turned to the guys. "Ok, we'll make a deal. I'll give you back your trunks as soon as you swear that you won't hurt me when you get out and that you'll all buy me drinks."
"Buy your own!" Zechs shouted.
"Take it or leave it."
"Alright alright!" Heero yelled. "Just hand them over!" So Duo threw their trunks towards them with a grin, but his grin soon faded as they all began to lunge towards him.
"Ahhhhh! I thought we had a deal!" he cried.
"We crossed our fingers," Trowa said.
"No fair!" Duo said as he ran, but unfortunately he was overtaken and and had several bumps upon his head. After they were done, the guys went after the women who screamed and ran. There were a lot of flying sand and laughter going about, but everyone was having a great time. It was a late afternoon before they all stopped and had some drinks.
"Let's go play volleyball," Quatre suggested. They all agreed and seperated into teams. Heero, Zechs, and Duo were on one side, whil the other had Wufei, Trowa, and Quatre. The girls had decided to join as well. Sally, Catherine, and Hilde had decided to go onto Trowa's team. Relena, Noin, and Dorothy were on Heero's team. And so the game began while another woman recorded the game with Noin's camcorder.
Both teams were evenly matched...ok maybe not. Many times the ball nearly missed Relena as she screamed and jumped out of the way. This was very irritating for Heero's team. Then Catherine spiked the ball and it smacked Relena right in the face. And at the same time, Duo had tried to get the ball, but ended up crashing into her as she was hit in the face. Relena ended up with some bruises and a bloody nose. She was also bawling quite loudly.
"What the hell are you people doing!?" she screamed in anger.
"It was an accident Relena," Heero said soothingly. "Maybe you shoulde step out of the game." Relena did so and the game started again.
"What a crybaby," Duo muttered to himself. Soon Heero's team was gaining the upper hand and soon won. It was mostly thanks to Heero and Duo, who had doubled up and did some really great moves.
"It's not fair!" Hilde said. "Heero and Duo doubled up!"
"So?" Zechs said. "We had one less player and still won. Besides, you could've done the same during the game." Night soon fell but the party wasn't over yet! The guys gathered up some wood and made a bonfire while the barbeque was cooking. Soon everyone was eating and laughing. Relena clung to Heero and made him eat what she fed him. Quatre brought out a boom box and music blasted into the night. Many people danced as others watched and ate and talked and laugh. Midnight soon came and everyone packed up to leave.
"This was a great beach party," Sally commented to Duo.
"Thanks," he said brightly.
"I'll be sure to make many copies of the video!" Noin called out as she and Zechs started to drive away. I'm gonna send a copy to Sasha as soon as I can, Duo thought to himself. He and the others drove home tired, but happy.
Oh no, did you really think it would end there? After all this waiting I decided that you deserve to read more.Everyone took a shower back at the house and were quite tired. Duo sat at the kitchen table looking at how much booze they had left. After all, he would need it for his plan to work. There were 7 six packs left. Oh yeah. Duo, you are the mastermind of mischief and the best matchmaker ever! he thought to himself in his moment of delight. He took all the packs out to the living room and settled down on the couch.
"Maxwell, what do you think you're doing?" Wufei inquired.
"Well, I thought we could have something kinda like an after party," Duo answered innocently.
"We just had a whole day of partying!" Wufei exclaimed.
"Wufei's right Duo. We're all tired," Quatre said.
"Aw come on you guys!"
"Shut up Duo," Heero said from behind his laptop. (A/N: He never seems to tire enough not to go and work on his laptop does he?) Duo then decided to use a technique I'm sure all of you out there are familiar with.
"Betcha can't drink as much booze as I can," Duo taunted.
"Frankly no one cares Maxwell," Wufei said bluntly.
"Ha! You couldn't drink more than three bottles before you pass out!"
"That's a lie! I can drink more than that!"
"Prove it then."
"Uh, I don't think-" But Quatre was cut short by Duo's elbow that made contact with his stomach.
"Very well then!" And so Wufei took a bottle and took a large swig of it before reaching for another bottle. After the third bottle, Wufei passed out.
"I knew it," Duo said triumphantly. He then turned on the rest of the pilots.
"Can you all outdrink me?" he challenged.
"Duo..." Heero said warningly.
"Come on. Can you beat the unbeatable? Is the perfect soldier afraid to lose?" Something flashed in Heero's eyes.
"We'll see then," Heero answered. He closed shut his laptop and came to sit down next to Duo. Duo looked at the other two.
"What about you two?" Trowa was smart and shrugged before grabbing a drink.
"I really don't think this is really such a good idea," Quatre said. Duo shoved a drink into Quatre's hands and he shut up.
"All right. Ready, go!" They all chugged their drinks and grabbed for more. Quatre passed out after two drinks, Trowa after seven and soon all that was left was Duo and Herro at 12 drinks.
"Not bad," Duo said. "But I'm not going to lose."
"Same to you," Heero said. They glared at each other before grabbing more drinks and chugging them. After the 17th drink, Duo decided to end this. He knew he could keep going, but he also knew that Heero would try his hardest to keep up and when that happened, he just might win. So Duo finished his drink and plopped down. He could Here Heero breathing hard.
"Heh, tol ya I coulds beat ya," Heero slurred. Duo waited for Heero to pass out, but Hero moved close to Duo in his drunkness. Duo could feel Heero's warm breath on his cheek as well as the smell of beer. Duo could feel his heart beating in his ears and tried his hardest to keep his breathing slow. Finally Heero passed out next to Duo. Duo sighed and chuckled.
"I know I can beat ya all by myself, but I just couldn't take any chances today," Duo said as he held up a bottle of pills. "Hehehehe." Duo picked up Wufei and dropped him off on his bed. Net he carried Quatre and dropped him off on his bed, but he went for Trowa next and laid him next to Quatre with a grin. He positioned Quatre's head onto Trowa's chest and wrapped Trowa's around around Quatre's waist. Then Duo took out a piece of paper and wrote and note and left it on the stand next to the bed before leaving them.
"Next for Heero," he chuckled. But when he reached Heero out in the living room, his breathing stopped and his heart beat faster and faster. He slowly walked to Heero's body and kneeled next to him.
"I wish I didn't have to act. I wish I didn't have to do all of this to show you what that bitch is really like and to show that I care for you my love." Duo quickly lifted Heero's limp body and placed him in his bed in his own room. But instead of leaving, Duo watched Heero sleeping.
"Heero..." Duo brushed a stray hair from his messy mop that had fallen upon his perfect face. Duo's face unconciously moved closer to his angel, but he soon realized what he was doing and stopped. "I don't want to take advantage of you like this," he whispered to the sleeping beauty. Then Heero's lips parted as if he was awaiting his kiss and Duo stared in shock. "Heero." Duo smiled and placed his lips on Heero's for but a moment.
"Du...o..." Heero said softly. Duo froze as he waited for Heero to yell at him. But that yell never came for Heero was still asleep. Duo let go of the breath he hadn't realized he'd been holding. He quickly stood up and left Heero's room to fall into his own bed.
"I won't give up Heero. My heart won't let me." And his eyes closed into peaceful dreamless sleep.
Late and not much happening but yeah, that's what I have. Next should be more interesting as there will be a revelation of some secrets and another date with Heero and Relena as they go to a resturaunt. Who's this mysterious waitress that serves their table? And why do strange things keep happening to Heero and Relena? What's this? Catepillars in the salad? Spicy soup with mysterious jelly swimming in it? Hehehehe....
