Anyway, this is Kurobaraneko's birthday present - well, one of her birthday presents - so I hope you enjoy this. If I get the time, I'll try to write a different fic.

Anyways....

HAPPY BIRTHDAY!!

Angel Of The Night

Another day of work, another night of hell.

Every night Heero Yuy repeated these same lines to himself as he dragged his weary yet somhow-still-living body into his appartment after work. Heero had only had this customer service job for merely a week - only a week! - yet it was pure torchure for him. Phone call after phone call, stupid customers one after the other, talking about nothing in his ear for nearly ten hours in one day! As he fumbled into his bedroom, he managed to take off his business suit, but it was so hot he decided to go to sleep in his boxers. Finally collapsing on the tiny bed, Heero let out a long, depressed sigh and stared out the window. The night was extremely humid but beautiful as the full moon glowed in all its splendor.

"If only I had someone to share this night with," he said aloud.

Silence was his only friend when he left and all he had when he came home. Why should I be worried about silly things like love and company? After all I am the Perfect Soldier...or was..., he thought. Sighing again, he closed his eyes; maybe a nap would make things a little better. Little did he know that someone was watching him from a distance - or at least from the next room.

A gorgeous young man near Heero's age with dark brown hair tied up in a braid & shimmering violet eyes watched the man trying to sleep. Yet Heero could not see him, for he was an angel - a condemed one but an angel nonetheless. Years ago he had been banished for proclaiming himself to be the God of Death so here he was on the planet God had created and called Earth, roaming for years and searching for some type of peace. At his Creation, he was given the human name Duo Maxwell.

The one called Duo looked at this human & couldn't help but notice how beautiful he was even in his sleep.

For years I have been watching and protecting you, Duo thought. I have seen you return to this earthly dwelling; I have seen the numerous nights when you have cried yourself to sleep because you are lonely, yet all you want is love and to be loved in return. But from this night until Judgement, things will change. I will be the one - the only one - who will give you that love, but you must be willing to accept it..Heero Yuy. Without another word, the cursed one silently entered the room and began to whisper his name:

"Heero..."

It might not be the right time

I might not be the right one

But there's something about us I want to say

Cause there's something between us anyway

Heero suddenly awoke with a start. He could have sworn he just heard someone call his name, but when he looked around there was no one. Great, now I'm going crazy! he thought as he tried to go back to sleep again.

Meanwhile, Duo saw this wasn't going to work & sighed. Desprate times call for desprate measures I suppose, he said to himself as he moved closer. For a moment, he took another look at this Heero, this one who was the most beautiful of His creations in this world. Taking a deep breath, he leaned down & gently kissed Heero's lips.

I might not be the right one

It might not be the right time

But there's something about us I've got to do

Some kind of secret I will share with you

Again Heero awoke, this time with a deep look of panic on his face.

"Okay, whoever you are show yourse - what?!"

He stopped & looked at what was before him. A young man with violet eyes and long, braided dark-brown hair smiling at him.

"W-Who're you?!" Heero cried.

"Me? I'm Duo Maxwell and....the answer to your prayers," replied the angel. "You see, I've been watching you for years and...well, I have this feeling deep inside of me I just can't ignore anymore. I'm tired of seeing you crying yourself to sleep....who'd ever think an angel would fall in love with a creation of God?"

"Angel..?" Heero asked.

"Well, former one but I'm still one of His creations and I'm still here to confess something." In one swift movement, Duo sat next to the bewildered Heero and lovingly whispered these words to him:

I need you more than anything in my life

I want you more than anything in my life

I'll miss you more than anyone in my life

I love you more than anyone in my life

Immediately, Heero's eyes began to fill with tears.

"You - You love me? Something cursed? Someone who's killed so many with my own hands?" he said.

Duo smiled and kissed him again but more deeply than before.

"Yes, God forgives all and I truely love you, angel or not," Duo replied. "I promise to be by your side until Judgement." Without another word, deep passionate kissed were exchanged between the angel and the human.

The night became much hotter than before - much hotter..
