Wilde's Requiem

Gwing AU: ^^ .

Cherries

A note to any readers looking for a conclusion: there probably won't be one until I find something else to do with my time. I'm going by days and weeks and I really don't want to stop this story until I'm completely sick of this ideal. I'm not yet. I was almost for a second but I actually was having an allergic reaction to my mom's perfume (there's where I got the idea for Wufei's condition ^_^) It's going to keep on going and going and going and going. Until I hate it. When I hate it, it'll be done. That might take some time 'cause this makes me giggle.

Wednesday Part Fourteen: Crash Into Me

******************************

Zechs sighed. Lounging in a comfortable home wearing nothing but a loose silk robe and draping oneself across beautiful furniture would seem like utter heaven to some people. Zechs sighed again and thought it was time for a change of scenery. He decided on seeing from the upside down vantage point of his bed. He would like to have heard a giggle from the doorway, but he heard nothing. The house was really quiet when Treize left for work. He had nothing to do. This of course was entirely his fault.

If he wanted to he could be out working for his guardian. (He never called his adoptive parents mom or dad.) There was something sneaky and non- artistic about the stock market that repelled him though. He could head back to school but after eight years in a little exclusive boarding school outside of London, he determined that he had enough of school. Especially teachers and classmates. There was nothing else to do then. He was stuck in a swarm of gathered talents; a sprouting music career, a hopeless art fixation, and growing appreciation for fine cuisine. Now what?

// "I suppose I can go downstairs and try song writing again. Nah. I want to get out of this house. maybe I should shopping." // He smiled to himself. Shopping went hand in hand with art because if it wasn't done right, it wasn't beautiful. "Alright, I'll go shopping. I'll get dress and go shopping!" The blonde hopped off his bed and headed for his shower. Then the doorbell ranged.

******************************

// "Please don't be mad at me." // Wufei was silently repeating a quiet mantra waiting for someone to open the door. He saw Zechs's car in the driveway and knew Treize was teaching at school. He wasn't sure why he thought this was the right place to be, but he had nothing better to do. // "Besides, if I head back for the movies, I'll ruin anything I started. I hope those two got over themselves and started making out or something. Idiots." //

He shrugged and looked across the street. // "The old woman from last night? Why is she peeking out her window." // He waved to her to make sure she knew she was spotted. The tactless old lady waved back before she caught herself. // "Old hen." // The door finally opened and a very beautiful Zechs Merquise stood there, with his robe open. Wufei blushed and turned away. "Sorry! I didn't mean to interrupt anything! I'll go now, sorry!"

Zechs frowned. "Aren't you supposed to be in school? Oh well, come inside. If you move, that witch will see as much of me as you did. In fact I'm counting on it." The blonde turned around and beckoned Wufei to follow. "Y-yes sir." He looked back towards Mrs. Anderson's house. She was outside and about to come towards him. Zechs called from inside, "You better get in here before she gets you, little boy. I'm all tied up, it's alright now." Wufei rushed in and closed the door. "What's with her anyway?"

The tall blonde was pouring himself a drink. "She despises evil creatures like myself and Treize. Especially since her son has something of a crush on me. He should be home sometime soon, he's in the Navy." He handed Wufei a glass. "Did you want something Wufei?" Wufei shook his head. "I was wondering if I could come and work with you on the music a little. I wrote a new song last night." Zechs stretched out on the couch and crossed his legs, "Okay then. Wait here a moment and don't drink the cognac. It's Treize's. You can have anything else, though."

After pouring the younger man a shot, smiling he stood up and headed upstairs. "I'm going to change. We can talk about the music after we do a bit a shopping." With that he disappeared up the staircase. Wufei quickly swallowed a bit of the liquor. He regretted having done so the moment the taste of it made him cough. "Disgusting. How can people drink this? Ew." Sitting the glass down, he decided to take a good look around the room.

The house looked colder right now. If it had more color, it would look a lot warmer. It even felt cold. // "It didn't feel like this yesterday." // Wufei started walking around the living room. He hadn't a chance to really look at some the things inside of there. But the living room was kind of bare of anything but artwork and furniture. It wasn't like the bedroom he saw upstairs. He remembered catching a glimpse of it while his eyes were swollen and Zechs was dragging him out. There was a canopy bed and the room was painted blue and there were candle stands and roses everywhere.

Children are blessed with curiosity. He decided to get another peek of the bedroom while Zechs was in the shower or bath or wherever.

******************************

The movie wasn't all that. The theater was empty and the only sound other than the movie's dialogue was an occasional moan from the balcony. Heero really wasn't in the mood for this. // "Just where the hell did Wufei go anyway!" // He looked to his side again. The movie was halfway over and Duo hadn't even looked at him. He was unusually quiet and barely touched his popcorn or candy. Then there was the lighting effect. Blue tones on his hair and his big bright eyes kept making Heero turn around to stare at his braided baka.

Heero sighed and sat back. // "Why am I acting so stupid around Duo." // The other boy was still watching the movie, but his eyes were changing. A main character was dying. Technically the character had only spoken a few times but he was married to the lead and that made the whole thing dramatic and sad. Heero frowned, // "Don't cry Duo. It's only a movie." // Duo's eyes were glassy, but he didn't let the tears drop down.

Heero sighed a little, // "Wufei did this on purpose." //

******************************

The classroom was so boring today. Treize found himself staring at the two empty rows. No pranks, no quiet reading, no interesting questions. no one to shamelessly flirt with. Then Relena came into view and she was smirking. // "What in the hell is she so happy about?" // The bell rung and his class cleared out. Relena took her time getting his desk and held out a sheet of paper. Mommy and daddy told me make you got this. It's something about that house you bought with their money."

Treize rolled his eyes, "I'm paying for that house. Zechs and I are paying for it, they have nothing to do with it." Relena shrugged, "Whatever. I'm much to young to have deal with that sort of thing. Daddy says he wants his son to come have dinner on Saturday. I happen to miss my brother. It's about time you let him out of that leash."

There was a good deal of temptation between two. One was tempted to mark F on an otherwise decent essay, and one was tempted to spread gossip among the school faculty. However much they hated one another, it wasn't worth making Zechs mad or upset. Treize sighed and checked his watch. I'll call and tell him about it at lunch. Does that please you princess?" Relena courtly nodded walked away.

Grading papers and making plans was only so much fun. // "I wonder if there's a way to get them back earlier?" // He glanced at his self of student awards. Whenever his favorite students won an award, he asked for them to display them in his room. At the moment there was a rather large trophy weighing it down. // "Quatre's father could try to act with a little more tack when putting his son on a pedestal. wait. of course! Why didn't I think of that before!" //

******************************

What a fun car ride. Wufei had never been in the passenger seat of a race car before, but it really felt that way now. The car sped out of the driveway, down the street, across the highway and all with the top down! // "You'd think he want to avoid the bugs or something." // The boy was quite acquainted with flying insects by now. Why a few even decided to hang on to conversation by hanging on to hair. "Ew. do we still need the top up sir?"

Zechs ran a hand through his hair looked over to the boy. "Yes." Wufei frowned, ".right." Zechs laughed and looked back at the road. "Here we go, top up kid. Don't get pouty. That's totally my job." Wufei sighed, "Right. I'm not exactly sure why I'm going with you. Wouldn't you rather just work on your music?" Wufei was answered after the top descended and a radio was turned up, really, really loud. The driver wasn't in the mood for questions.

Wufei scratched his head, // "Maybe he does hate me." // Up ahead the top of the five level mall came into view. Wufei wasn't sure if it was a good time to ask if he could stop off for some money. // "I still have some cash on me, maybe I could pick something up for Sally and the guys." // Zechs was lightly drumming on his steering wheel. The car was still going very fast. The parking lot was in view. There was a clear space. There was a SUV. There was a crash.
