He was always such a nice boy
The quiet one
With good intentions
Duo walked down the crowded hallway of the newest high school the gundam pilots were infiltrating. He was deep in thought, and a rare frown graced his lips, his violet eyes downcast.
'Heero's been avoiding me lately... and I can't put my finger on it, but something is wrong...' Duo thought, pondering on the last few days.
After finally confessing how they felt about each other and, cough, consummating their relationship, Heero had started to grow distant. Avoiding Duo like the plague.
"Shh... what if we're caught Heero?"
Duo looked up at the familiar high-pitched voice of one Relena Peacecraft. What really caught his attention was the fact that Relena had said Heero's name.
Duo quickly moved to the side into the door of an empty classroom. It was lunch now, and most of the school's inhabitants were outside, enjoying the nice weather.
"We won't. No one knows we're still in here." Heero's voice answered. Duo's mind started working a million miles a minute.
'What? Why is Heero and Relena meeting in the hallway? What are they doing? And more importantly, why is HEERO with her?' Duo's mind screamed at him as he leaned closer so he could hear the conversation better.
A good boy
But good don't get attention
One kid with a promise
The brightest kid in school
Duo listened quietly, but all he heard was Relena giggling madly. Deciding to take his chances with getting caught Duo walked forward.
The sight that greeted him shocked him so bad he dropped the books he had been carrying.
THUD
Two heads snapped up in his direction.
"Duo?"
/Heero/
Heero could've smacked himself. He had been so distracted by Relena he hadn't heard Duo's approach. He could've punched himself at the utter pain and betrayal reflected in those beautiful violet eyes.
Duo's eyes filled with tears and Heero let go off Relena and stepped forward.
"Duo... let me explain..."
SMACK
'Okay, i deserved that...' Heero thought, rubbing his aching jaw,' I think he knocked out a tooth..'
"You... you..." Duo stuttered out, anger and pain in his voice. A tear slipped down his face. Duo spun on his heel and took off.
"DUO!"
/Duo/
I punched him.
Hard.
'How dare he try to explain it to me? Like I didn't just catch them fucking making out!' Duo thought furiously as he ran.
Duo had no clue where to go. So he ran to his next class and sat in there, no longer hungry.
'Damnit, no wonder he was avoiding me.. he's fucking cheating on me with that pink bitch..' Duo thought angrily.
RING, RING
Duo practically jumped a foot in the air when the bell sounded that signaled the next class.
'Breathe Duo, you have a class that is about to start, and damnit, I REFUSE to show that asshole how much he hurt me..' Duo thought, sticking a grin on and smiling as the room started to file up with students.
'Think you can break my heart Heero?' Duo thought coldly, as he watched Heero and Relena flirting as they walked in. 'No one crosses Shinigami and lives, and you just crossed the fucking line.' Duo thought, an all to familiar maniacal grin crossing his features.
He's not a fool
Reading books about science and smart stuff
It's not enough, no
Cause smart don't make you cool, whoa
/Heero/
'Okay... here goes nothing...' Heero thought. He was standing outside of Duo's room, stealing himself to try and explain it all to the braided boy.
Duo had acted like nothing had happened, but Heero noticed the way his smile seemed forced. Immediately when they had all gotten back to the safe house, Duo had told them he was tired and to get him when dinner was ready.
Heero knocked on Duo's door, prepared for the braided boy to super pissed at him.
"Who is it?" Duo's voice called.
"It's Heero, I need to talk to you." Heero said back, looking up when he heard someone approach. Quatre looked at Heero and smiled.
"I was going to ask Duo if he wanted to talk." Quatre said quietly in response to Heero's questioning look.
A loud voice from the other side of the door made both of them jump.
"Fuck off Heero. I don't wanna hear your excuses!" Duo's angry voice yelled. Quatre cast Heero a questioning glance that Heero chose to ignore.
"Just let me explain-" Heero was cut off as the door swung open to reveal an angry Duo Maxwell glaring at him.
"There is no need to explain, I think I understand perfectly." Duo said coldly, his eyes shooting Heero a death glare.
A slight gasp made both turn to a pale Quatre who was clutching his shirt over where his heart was and staring a Duo, wide-eyed.
"Duo...?" Quatre said, a shocked look on his face.
Duo's eyes flickered, and then the door slammed. Leaving two very worried teens standing in the hallway.
/Quatre/
'What the hell was that? I just caught pain, anger, heartache, and something else that I have never felt off Duo outside of a mobile suit battle.' Quatre thought, casting a look at Heero, who was standing next to him, looking shocked at Duo's actions.
"Heero... what was that about?" Quatre asked turning and shooting a meaningful glance at Heero.
"Nothing." Heero said simply, turning to leave when they both heard something neither expected to hear from Duo's room.
SNIFFLE
Quatre's eyes widened and he knocked on the door quietly.
"Duo? Are you okay? Do you need to talk? What's wrong?" Quatre said softly, watching Heero who just stood there shocked.
"Ask that son-of-a-bitch next to you Q." Duo's quiet voice called back, along with a few more sniffles.
Quatre looked to Heero and raised an eyebrow.
"He caught me and Relena kissing-" Heero started.
"More like making the fuck out!" Duo yelled angrily from the other side of the door. Heero flinched visibly.
"Anyway, he freaked out and took off before I could explain it to him." Heero continued, glancing at Duo's closed door.
"What? Why were you two doing that?" Quatre asked, shocked. He knew how the two boys had recently got together.
"I-i realized I love her... and that I don't love Duo that way..." Heero said, hanging his head.
BANG
Both boys jumped again as the door bust open. Duo stood there, tears pouring down his face, but that wasn't what made Quatre gasp, it was the odd glint in those usually smiling eyes.
WHACK
THUD
"Owwww..." Heero mumbled, clutching his ribs, which he thought he heard at least two break, from his place on the floor. He had fallen after Duo punched him in the ribs.
"Duo!" Quatre said, shocked at the boy's actions.
"Go away. Both of you. I'm not in the mood to deal with this shit right now." Duo said coldly, walking back into his room and slamming the door.
-The next day at school.-
/Normal/
No one saw Duo at breakfast that morning, and Quatre got a really bad feeling, which he shared with Wufei and Trowa, after explaining the encounter in the hallway the night before.
"This doesn't bode well..." Wufei muttered, Trowa nodded.
"Yes, Duo never really was stable; I think Heero may have sent him over the edge. No telling what he may do to get back at him..." Trowa said quietly, "I just hope we're around to stop him..."
/Duo/
'Think you can fuck with me Hee-chan? You'll regret ever cheating on me.' Duo thought, a maniacal glint on his face as he walked up the steps to the Peacecraft residence.
"Oh, hello Mr. Maxwell, are you here to see Ms. Relena off to school?" Relena's butler asked, smiling down at Duo.
"Yes, is it okay if I come in?" Duo asked, smiling at the older man, who smiled right back.
"Why, yes come on in..." the butler moved to the side and allowed Duo to come in and shut the door behind him.
BANG, BANG
The butler was dead before he hit the ground, and Duo smiled at him.
"Now, off to see Ms. Relena..." Duo said an insane smile on his lips.
/Relena/
BANG, BANG
Relena jumped. Walking to top off the stairs, she looked down to see Duo, standing above her dead butler holding a gun.
'Fuckfuckfuckfuckfuck..' Relena thought, running into her room and locking the door.
'Heero.' Relena thought, as she frantically dialed the emergency number he had given to her.
RING, RING
'Pick up the fucking phone Heero…. There is a crazed Duo downstairs about to fucking kill me….' Relena's thought was cut aff as a voice sounded on the other end.
"Hello? Yuy here."
"Heero! Help me! Duo is downstairs and he just shot my butler and I'm scared-"
"What? I'm on my way, stay on the line." Heero said, and she heard the sound like someone was running.
KNOCK, KNOCK
"Ms. Relena? Are you awake?" a male voice called, that Relena recognized as Duo's.
She panicked.
"I-I'm still getting dressed! Wait a couple of minutes please! I'll be ou in a second!" she called, trying to stall the boy outside her door.
"Heero…. He's outside my door, asking me if he can come in..!" Relena whispered into her phone, staring at her door in horror.
"Stale. I need at least five minutes to get there." Heero responded, who sounded out of breathe.
"I'm trying.." Relena whispered back.
He's not invisible anymore
With his Father's 9 and a broken fuse
/Heero/
RING, RING
Heero immediately picked up the phone and said, "Hello? Yuy here."
To his utter surprise, Relena's frightened voice responed.
"Heero! Help me! Duo is downstairs and he just shot my butler and I'm scared-"
"What? I'm on my way, stay on the line." Heero said, taking off in the dierection of Relena's manision.
'Fuck, I didn't expect him to snap like this…' Heero thought, trying to run as fast as he could. He never noticed the other three pilots had noticed his hasty retreat and were running along behing him.
Suddenly Heero heard a voice in the background he recognized as Duo's immediately.
"Heero…. He's outside my door, asking me if he can come in..!" Relena whispered sounding panicked and scared.
"Stale. I need at least five minutes to get there." Heero responded, trying to run faster than he was.
"I'm trying.." Relena whispered back.
BOOM
He heard Relena scream and then start talking frantically.
"Heero! He's trying to break down my door…!" the rest of her sentence was cut off as he heard the sound of something heavy hitting the ground.
BANG, BANG
"Relena?" Heero called, sounding panicked.
"… Hello Hee-chan, was up?" Duo's voice said, sounding happy and normal. Heero's eyes widened.
"What have you done to Relena?" Heero yelled, seeing Relena's house only 15 yards away…
"Hmm… wee-ell, she seems to be dead, but let's ask her, ne?" he heard movement and then he heard a raspy voice.
"H-heero..? I-I can't… beathe… it hurts…" Relena said, sounding as if she was drowning. Heero's eyes widened as he ran up the front steps, and up to Relena's room.
"Relena?" Heero screamed, running into the room. What he saw made him freeze.
Duo was standing in the middle of the room, bent over and holding a cell phone to Relena's mouth as she continued to drown in her own blood.
"Oh my god…" Heero said, he dashed forward only to freeze when Duo spun around and aimed a gun at him.
"Hello Hee-chan." Duo said, smiling insanely at him. "How are you today?"
