Black

Chapter Four

Once they got out of the shower, the two boys went and ate the cold breakfast that Wufei had prepared. They didn't talk while they ate but both boys were content with the silence. They were each lost in their own thoughts. Finally, Wufei got up saying that he needed to make a few phone calls.

Duo, just sat at the kitchen table seemingly lost in thought. This wasn't anything new, anymore. All he ever did was think, it seemed. But this time, he was thinking about his past, and his future. Normally he thought about why he made it out alive when many others didn't. Today it just seemed that he was thinking about the what if's and the might have been's. His mind wandered and he wondered if he would ever see Hilde again. He wondered if she would remember him if they say each other many years from now. Would she even want to see him?

What about the guys? He missed being able to talk to Heero. Not that he minded Wufei, he loved the Chinese teen more than life itself. But Heero was his best friend. Outside of Wufei that is. He missed Quatre, the blond was always able to bring some sense to the things that went on around them. And he even missed Trowa, even if they rarely ever talked to each other. He missed his old friends. He missed Solo, the first friend he had, Father Maxwell and Sister Helen, the only parents that he ever had. He wondered what they would have thought about him, if they knew him now.

While Duo was deep in thought in the kitchen, Wufei was busy making phone calls. He had spent the morning thinking about what he could do to possibly make Duo feel better. He had come up with what he was going to do, now it was just a matter of making sure that he could use what he needed and that certain people were in very good moods.

He hung up the phone, his calls were complete and every thing was good to go. All he had to do was get Duo ready, he just hoped that this would have the effect that he wanted it to have. He hated to see the braided teen in pain. It wasn't just the fact that Duo didn't talk as much as he used to, but it was also the fact that the boy's eyes were just dead. It pained him to see the one he loved looking like he was about to give up.

"Duo, come on, I got a surprise for you," Wufei said as he walked back into the kitchen. Duo's head shot up startled when he heard his love's voice.

"What type of surprise? Hey, 'Fei, we going somewhere or something?"

"Hm, just go pack enough clothing for about a week or so, okay?" Duo looked up in shock.

"Uh, 'Fei, don't you gotta work? I mean, you have a job and all. I'd be saying something about school but me being suspended for the week..."

"Mmm, I took some time off. Let's just say that I'm not on active duty until further notice. And, you are not going back to school until Sally and I say you are. Is that okay?"

"Yes. So, where are we going or is that part of this whole surprise thing?"

"Go get ready, I'm already packed."

They ended up going to one of Quatre's many mansions. This one was close to where they lived but was far enough away so that no one could bother them. They also weren't the only ones there. Wufei had managed to contact the other former pilots and they had agreed to come to an impromptu gathering. Duo was visibly happier when he realized that he would be able to spend some time with his friends.

The boys and Relena sat down in the living room. Despite what went on during the wars the boys had come to actually enjoy having the former Queen of the World around. She had grown up a lot since those days that she went around chasing the Perfect Soldier. Now the two were laying on the floor next to each other. Trowa and Quatre were sitting on the sofa, almost tangled in one another. Duo and Wufei were comfortable sitting with each other on an oversized chair.

They started talking about what they had been doing, each having some funny story to tell. Heero told about the time that he thought that Relena was being stalked. This guy was following them after a meeting, he went everywhere they did. Anyway, it turned out that Relena had left her handbag at the meeting hall. He was just trying to return it. The poor guy almost had a heart attack when Heero finally had enough and pulled out his gun.

Quatre and Trowa apparently had been walked in on several times at the office. They finally had to send out a general memo to the staff stating that from then on any one wishing to speak to Mr. Winner must knock before they entered. Duo seemed to find this funny as he almost fell out of the chair, Wufei grabbed his braid before he could hit the ground.

Even Duo and Wufei had something funny to tell. One time they were out on a date, yes, they were standing in line to buy tickets. Well it was Duo's night to pay so when he was getting the money out to pay, Wufei felt a tap on his shoulder. He turned around to see a little old lady. She looked up at him kindly, and then informed him that the male was supposed to be paying for the date. This story got all of them laughing, well except Duo who was pretending to be offended. They didn't want go against the little old lady's advice so Wufei had ended up paying for the movie.

They chatted for a bit more, then they slowly started drifting to their respective rooms. Once they were in their room, Wufei turned to Duo and grabbed the braided boy. He proceeded to throw him on the bed and then joined him. He started planting kisses on the long haired boy. Slow and sweet kisses were placed on his loves head, neck, and chest.

Having Wufei treat him like this, it made Duo forget about everything that had been bothering him the last few months. He gave in to his feelings and started to give kisses to Wufei. They did this for a bit, then they just laid there. It felt good. It felt right. For the first time in a long time, both boys felt like they belonged. They fell asleep in each others arms.

As he fell asleep Duo whispered so softly that Wufei could barely hear it but he did, "I love you 'Fei."

So what did you think? Some how, I thought that the songs fit. I'm not sure though. The story will pick up and be more detailed soon.
