Black

Chapter Two

Wufei was not looking forward to seeing the other pilots. Sure he enjoyed their company, but tonight, he really wanted to just have some alone time with Duo. He hated to see the braided boy depressed. Somehow, after the war, the loud mouthed youth had found his way into the Chinese teen's heart. He remembered the first time he realized that there was more to his love than met the eye.

January, AC 197

Everyone was at one of Quatre's estates on Earth. They had been celebrating the holidays a little late since they had all wanted to be together to celebrate them. Everyone had had enough celebrating for the night and slowly everyone left to go to their respective rooms. Everyone had gone off to bed except for Wufei. He went to the kitchen to have some tea and a few minutes alone to think.

After the wars, it seemed like everyone paired up with each other. Heero finally came to his senses and admitted the fact that he did like Relena. Quatre and Trowa had been no big surprise. Sally had went off with Une somewhere and Wufei hadn't heard much from her since. She had called him with an offer to join what would essentially be the new world military. He had agreed to join, but first he would have to take a psych exam to make sure that there was not some mental illness lurking around in his head. The only other person who was still alone was Duo. Apparently, Hilde just sort of disappeared. Duo had been a bit upset when he had been unable to locate her but Heero had offered to find her.

Wufei had been lost in his thoughts when he noticed that someone was standing next to him. He looked over to see Duo standing right next to him, eating an apple. They stood there in an awkward silence, then Wufei heard a wisper, "'Fei?"

Normally, the Chinese boy would have given a hostile response to being called, 'Fei, but there was something in the braided teen's voice that make him reconsider how he would respond, "What Maxwell?"

"So now what?"

"Well, I'm going to go join the Preventers. That is if I pass the mandatory psych exam, which I don't think will be a problem. Heero is going to be Relena's new body guard, Trowa and Quatre are going to be running WEI together, Trowa is going to be Quatre's advisor, I guess that is what everyone is planning on doing. We move on with our lives, and you?"

"I don't know. My plans kinda were wiped away when I realized that Hilde ran off. Maybe I'll join the Preventers too. Ya think that's something that's possible?"

"Sure, why not?"

Unfortunately, things didn't work out as they had planned. Duo had not passed the psych exam. When Duo had come out from the exam room, he looked like someone had beaten him emotionally. When Wufei had asked him what had happened, Duo just shrugged and said something about his scars. It would be a few months before he knew what exactly it was that Duo had been talking about.

It had been suggested that maybe Duo should be sent off to either an institution or to a foster home on Earth. But when Wufei had seen the look on Duo's face when that was suggested, he offered to look after Duo himself. Reluctantly, the Higher Ups agreed to this arrangement only if Duo agreed to attend school. That had been how they the two boys ended up living together. As time had passed by the relationship between the two had developed.

By the time Wufei had come back to reality from his thoughts, they were already at Quatre's.

So, what do you think? I'm trying to make the chapters longer, for now just bear with me. Thanks.
