The last chapter was a little strange, I admit, but that's what makes it so fun!

Chapter 2: the end
The ride home took about thirty minutes with no traffic. I used the time to think about what my excuse would be to be coming home early. I decided on telling Duo that I was sent home early in order to get ready for my next mission. That wasn't a total lie, in two days I was supposed to be leaving to L2 to uncover a drug scam.
By the time I reached the apartment that Duo and I shared it was raining outside. I parked the car in the parking garage and took the stairs to the fifth floor. I paused in front of the door, took a deep breath, unlocked it and stepped in. The apartment was eerily quiet. I thought that perhaps Duo wasn't home. I through the living room towards the bedroom, checking all the doors on the way. I found Duo sitting on the bed, his hands holding his head up. I looked as if he was crying.
"Duo?" I asked. He shot up and looked at he. His face was damp, he had been crying.
"He-Heero? What are you doing here? Shouldn't you be at work?" he asked as he wiped his face off with the back of his hand.
"They let me leave early so I could prepare for my next mission." I told him easily. I was amazed. It had become so easy to lie recently. I wasn't sure if that was a good thing or a bad thing.
"Oh" silence followed that. After a few moments I turned to walk out of the room, but before I could go anywhere Duo called out to me, "Heero?" I turned around to face him, "Yes Duo" his eyes dropped from mine to study the floor. "I'm sorry about last night. I don't know what came over me. I promise it will never happen again. I'm seeking help for my problem." He kept looking at the floor. I could only stare at him. He had always apologized after he hurt me, but this time he said he was seeking help. He had never said that before. Maybe things wouldn't be so bad anymore, maybe they would go back to the way it all started. I walked over to him and sat next to him on the bed, bringing my arms around his waist to hug him. He leaned into me, resting his head on my chest and closing his eyes. We stayed like that for a while. Duo was getting heavy leaning on me so I decided to lay back on the bed. Duo didn't object, in fact he turned so that he was looking at me and sat on my waist, his hands running over my chest. "God Heero, your so beautiful" he said as he leaned down to kiss me. I was amazed, I couldn't remember the last time Duo was this gentile. We just stayed like that on the bed for a long time, eventually Duo fell asleep, and I followed behind him not to long after.
I awoke to a loud noise coming from the living room. Something had been knocked over. "Shit" it was Duo, what was he doing in there? I got off the bed and walked cautiously into the living room. It was a mess. There were papers all over the place, and the corner lamp was knocked over, and had broken, that's what had woken me up. "Duo, what are you doing?" I asked
"Oh, nothing Heero." He said still rummaging through all the papers, and throwing the ones that didn't interest him away behind him. Course when he found what he was looking for I was surprised to find that it wasn't paper he was interested in.
Shuffled in one of the piled of paper had been an envelope. Duo opened the envelop to pull out a small bag with white powder in it. Drugs. Duo was addicted to drugs. Well that explains his behavior, at least some of it. I left the room, I didn't want to believe that Duo did drugs. Why would he need them, he always acted so happy, course I knew that was all an act. I had seen him when he was vulnerable, when he had shed that mask and huddled in fear, or when he lashed out in anger. He hid more pain and anguish behind that mask then I thought was possible for any one person to feel.
I walked back into the bedroom and opened my laptop. I signed onto the Preventor's official site in order to be able to retrieve some of the documents I had been looking over before I left work. I was just finishing up my work when Duo walked into the room. He just stood in the doorway for a while and then ran up to me, knocking me off the chair. He then punched me in the face, hard. Where did this come from? What did I do this time?
"Duo!" I cried
"Shut up Heero, I can't have you around. You know to much."
"What …are you …t-talking about… Duo?" I talked slowly, due to the fact that my face was in pain from his punch. He look frail and easy to break, but he packed a strong punch!
"You saw it. No one can know I have it, then they might come for it." I could only imagin he was talking about the drugs.
"Duo, I won't tell anyone I--"
"No, don't try it. Your just saying that now, but once I let you go you'll go straight to the cops." What was he, insane? If I wanted to do to the cops I would have gone when he first started hitting me! Drugs wasn't going to make me want to go to the cops all of a sudden.
"No Duo. I would never go to them!"
"Shut up, don't try to talk to me. Snake told me you would try to get back on my side. But I know you, I can see how scared you are, your eyes reveal everything. I know you want to go to the cops. Your just trying to trick me. Well let me tell you something, IT WON'T WORK!!" he practically spat the last part in my face. Before I knew what was happening he had a gun in his hands and was holding it to my head.
"Duo, what are you doing?" I ask. I was really scared now.
"Something I should have done a long time ago." He answered and with that he pressed the trigger.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
And that brings me to my current state. Duo ran out of the room the minute he pulled the trigger, sending a bullet to my skull. Unfortunately foe me I didn't die instantly, I'm always the unlucky one. I've been bleeding to death for the past hour and a half, but it seems like I've been l laying on this floor surrounded in my own blood for much longer than that. I'm so cold and my sight is becoming hazy. Everything is getting so dark. I don't know where I'm going, or what's next, but I hope its better than here.
------------------------------
Sorry it so short. Hopefully me next will be longer. I want to try a supernatural fic. Hopefully it will go well. Please R&R.
