Another wonderful chapter and I am running off of nothing. Ideas are coming to me as I go so I need you guys input. Thanks mucho. Also You really have too keep up with the scene changes.You will notice them but just not that well..

Chapter 1

Duo stepped out of the car and immediately began to take in his surroundings. Everything had changed so much after the war. Things were nicer and cleaner and surprisingly there were no fights going on in the streets. The eighteen year old took a deep breath and looked up at the sky. "Come on Duo, Don't get to comfortable. We have places to go and people to see." Hilde's voice rang out. A strong arm pulled him back into the limo that Quatre had provided for them.. Duo and Hilde had been in the car for what felt like forever. They had arrived on L2 in the early morning and had been driving since then. It was now close to supper.

Duo stared outside the window as if he had never been outside before. It had been so long since he had been there. L2 held so many memories there, some he didn't want to remember but others he would love to relive. He watched as the artificial sun dissipated under the mountains.

"Its amazing, isn't it?" Kast whispered. Duo came up behind the young boy and wrapped his arms around him. "You're amazing" Kast turned his head and gave his braided lover a kiss on the cheek. "I love you so much." Duo whispered, looking intently into Kast's eyes then looking back up at the setting sun.

"Hey you guys! Dinner is done, Come and eat"Hilde yelled from the balcony. Kast broke Duo's embrace and turned to walk away but a strong arm held onto him. Kast smiled at Duo as he looked up but Duo wasn't smiling.

"Duo, what's wrong?" His face held nothing but concern. To answer, Duo pulled Kast down on to the grass and held him there as the blue haired boy squirmed. "What are doing? Duo, Get off!" Duo stayed and looked seriously into Kast's eyes before lowering his head for a kiss.

Kast felt all sanity leave him as Duo ran his tongue along Kasts bottom lip. The blue haired boy granted him access into his mouth and Duo took total control. The braided boy went into a frenzy trying to strip Kast of his clothes. Kast placed his hand over Duo's as the boy reached his belt buckle. "Duo," his eyes held fear and embarrassment. "Out here? Right now? What if Hilde comes out? What if Deity comes out? I don't want my sister to see us having sex."

"Making love..." Duo corrected in his lover's ear.

"What?" Kast searched for Duo's eyes. When he found them it wasn't hard to see that they were clouded by lust.

"You don't want her to see us making love." Kast looked away from Duo and the sixteen year old occupied himself with his lover's neck.

'Ya..Making love.'

Duo stepped out of the car and right into Quatre's arms. "It is so good to see you two" His voice was full of music. "How are you two?" Quatre looked eagerly at Duo and Hilde and waited for an answer. After Duo didn't answer Hilde took the liberty. "Were fine... How are you Quatre?"

"Excellent," The blonde boy cheered.

"Please come in."

He escorted the two into the large mansion and left them to stand in awe of its vastness. "Q-man., Is it me or are your mansions getting bigger "Duo stared up at the ceiling with his mouth gapped open. No matter where Quatre went he always had to stand out. This was on of those incidents where he brought to much attention to himself. His mansion was the biggest thing on the block let alone the city.

"So while we wait for the others to arrive why don't you tell me how everything has been going? Are you two-?"

"NO!" Hilde and Duo yelled in unison.

Quatre jumped at the sudden outburst his eyes large with surprise. "I'm sorry,"he apologized. "I just figured that…. Well, you know?" The two only nodded.

"Hey thanks again for bringing us all together for the holidays, Quatre. I'm sure everyone has been dieing for a break from working." Hilde said, breaking an uncomfortable silence that had fallen upon them. "Anytime, Hil-…" The blonde man was caught off by the ring of the doorbell and he rushed over to the door to see who it was.

Hilde looked over at Duo whose head had sunk down into a pillow beside him. "Jetlag?" she asked. Duo sat up and looked at her. "No," he answered quietly. "Something else but I can't figure it out. I feel like I am supposed to be doing something right now. Helping someone who is crying out for help…It's weird. I feel like I have made a few promises that I didn't keep." Duo looked down at his feet as if they were going to help him solve his mystery. "Maybe it's just the holidays. You feel like you have to buy everyone a present and your scared that someone has made a special request and you might forget it."Hilde's opinion made Duo feel a little better. Mariemaia had been begging for a new bike since last Christmas. He had to remember to get that for her.

A tall and well poised man walked into the room. Duo didn't even have to look up to know who it was. "Good evening, Duo, Hilde" Trowa nodded to each person as he acknowledged their presents. Hilde stood up and walked to Trowa with open arms. "Its so good to see you after all this time." She hugged him tightly and Trowa returned it equally as warm. "Its getting kind of cold outside. Why don't I have Rashid show you to your room and then once you guys are all settled you can come down for tea?" Everyone nodded in agreement. Duo walked to Trowa and gave him a strong handshake before following behind Hilde and Quatre.

"Awwww! Why do I gotta have this room? Its like a quarantine zone!" Duo continued to complain even as Rashid closed the doors to the room. The eighteen year old sighed and threw himself on the bed. He closed his eyes and breathed deeply. He didn't mean to complain. It was really nice of Quatre to be doing this. It had been a year since Duo had seen anybody. He felt bad that he never visited for new years or Christmas last year. He had been busy with his new junkyard on earth. So it had been two years since he had seen any of the guys and any of the girls also. Duo gave a faint smile. He loved how things were good now. Everyone could actually come together and talk in peace with out worrying if someone was going to assassinate Relena. Everyone could just sit down and have a decent meal with out any problems. Duo gave a small thanks to whoever was listening before drifting off into a peaceful sleep.

"What the fuck is wrong with you? You think you can just take my money? You little slut!" Silence was shattered by the sound of skin hitting skin in a violent way. A short figure lay curled up in a corner as the taller figure above beat him. The tall man delivered punches and kicks anywhere the young boy was vulnerable.

"Look at me, Aleyha! Look at me!"

The blue haired boy lifted his head to stare at the man who was his master for another 2 hours. He was ugly, fat, with messy hair, and craters in his face. Kast couldn't remember his name. Penton, Preston, Peterson...something. The only he could remember was that the mans wife had just left him three hours ago and Kast was going to be his chew toy for the night.

The man knelt down to eye level with the sixteen year old. "You have the most beautiful eyes. Do you know that?" His breath smelled of whiskey. Kast moved away from him only to have his body picked back up and thrown on the bed. The jingle of a belt buckle being tampered with echoed through the room and Kasts breathing became ragged with fear. This was the part he hated. The part that he tried his best to block out but never really could. The front of the bed sunk form the added weight and Kast almost vomited as he felt the mans skin against his back. "Oh Yeah…" the man whispered in Kast ear. "I'm gonna love ripping you from the inside out."

Next chapter. I think I am doing a lot better. I am kind of liking this. I hope everyone else is too. R & R PLEASE!
