Chapter 12: Kidnapped

Duo watched Ashi go as Trowa continued to play his flute. Turned his gaze to Trowa and glared at him.

Bastard! He knew that was their song…what is he trying to pull?

He clinched and unclenched his fists several times. Boy, you're in for a beatin'.

He wanted so much to come to Ashi, to comfort her. But the way she looked told Duo that she wanted to be alone. It still hurts her. She has a long way yet to heal…He kept telling himself.

Duo felt a hand on his shoulder. Duo turned, it was Relena and Heero.

"Duo, we've been talking about this for awhile…" Heero started.

Relena smiled. "…We would like you to be our daughter's God Father."

Duo's eyes widened. "Are you kidding?"

Heero shook his head. "No, we're very serious. And we'd be honored if you'd be Ashley's God Father."

Duo blinked. "Ashley? That's what you decided to name her? It sounds a lot like Ashi's name."

Heero nodded. "Exactly…that's also another thing we'd like to talk about. We'd like Ashi to be the God Mother."

Relena's smile grew wider. "Yes, we'd like to talk it over with her…where is she?"

"Hn…she ran off in a hurry…" Heero replied.

"Hmmm…Trowa stopped playing." Relena said.

Duo looked up; sure enough the seat Trowa was in was empty except for the flute carefully placed on top of the seat.

Where did he go?

"Uh, 'cuse me, guys…I'll go fetch Ashi." Duo said, walking off before Relena or Heero could respond.

Duo was stopped when a hand was placed on his shoulder. "Duo…"

Duo turned and almost jumped a mile, his mouth gaping open.

"Hilde?!"

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

"Beautiful night, is it not, Ashi?"

Ashi gasped and whirled around. "Trowa!"

She glared at him and turned away. "What do you want?!"

"Look, you have every right to be angry…it was wrong of me to play that song."

Ashi turned back to him, "This isn't just about the damn song and you know it!"

Trowa propped his elbows at the railing of the balcony. "I suppose I have explaining to do…"

"Damn right!"

A small smile crept at the corner's of Trowa's mouth. Heh, still feisty as ever…

"Well, as you know…Middi and I broke the engagement."

"Yeah? Why? Just two days ago you had me pack my bags and leave…and now you two are no longer together? Why?"

"Do you still not yet know?"

"Know what? What the hell are you talking about?!" Ashi shouted, feeling her patience running thin.

"Alright then…I'll tell you…" He took her hand in his and bent down on one knee.

"Tr-Trowa…what are you…?"

"Ashi…I made a mistake. I still love you. Please take me back!" Trowa said, his eyes giving him the appearance of a lost little boy.

Ashi shook her head. "I'm sorry, Trowa. You realized your mistake too late. I love Duo."

Trowa reached into his pocket and took out a small, velvet jewelry case, opening it slowly, showing the diamond ring. "Will this convince you?"

Ashi shook her head again. "Not all the diamonds in the world is going to undo what you did to me!"

"Marry me, Ashi!"

Ashi stepped back. "Wh-What did you just say!?"

Trowa stood up and pulled Ashi in a possessive embrace. "Be mine again…be my wife."

"Let me go!" Ashi screamed, pushing at his chest.

Trowa tightened his arms around Ashi's waist.

He laughed. "You little fool…you're mine!"

"No!"

Trowa smirked. "Oh, yes my love…all mine."

"You…you cant force me to marry you!"

Trowa's smirk deepened. "Oh, cant I, dear?" he laughed. "Well shall see, love…we shall see!"

He pressed his lips against Ashi's in a forceful kiss. Ashi broke the kiss with a disgusted gasp and slammed her knee at his crotch…well, it would've been slammed at his crotch if Trowa wasn't so quick in reflexes by grabbing her knee.

"Did you not think that I'd be prepared?"

"Go to hell!" (Hmmm…like boyfriend like girlfriend…Duo and Ashi both condemning people to Hell. XD)

"You'll learn a little more respect, love." He said, taking a small spray bottle out of his uniform jacket.

"What the hell are you trying to do?!"

Trowa smiled sinsterly. "I promised myself that I'll take you back…if not willingly…then by force. Oh, love…you look quite tired. Why not take a little nap?"

And with that, he sprayed into her face.

Suddenly, Ashi's world was starting to spin around. She was feeling dizzy and grabbed at the front of Trowa's jacket for support.

"Yes…sleep, love." Trowa whispered, his one arm around her waist and his other hand at the back of her neck.

"D-damn you…to…hell…" she said, before her head fell back and closed her eyes into complete darkness.

Trowa swooped Ashi into his arms bridal style and smiled.

"Now you're all mine…forever."

Creepy, huh?

Ashi: You're telling me!

Duo: Dammit! Why did you have to have Hilde stop me?! I wanted to kick his ass!

Hilde: Part of the plot, I guess…

Ashi: That cant be good…

Oh, before you ask "How the hell can Trowa escape without anyone knowing?" Well, remember…he's a circus performer…so he could climb down or find some sort of catwalk or something. I didn't feel like explaining how he escapes. It would be too tedious.

Trowa: I am so out of character…

Heero: Right there with you…I can imagine me married to Relena…but I actually, some what have a personality. It's freaking me out! And kids? I dunno about that… And Ashley? Why would I name my kid after the Authoress?

Because I got you and Relena together. Plus…I couldn't think of anything else. I thought of combining you and Relena's name, but it would've been weird.

Heero: Good point.
