Zechs walked back into the Heavenly realm in a better mood than he had been in a long time. He just couldn't seem to get rid of the smile on his face. Several of his subjects commented on it as he passed but he provided no explanation except, "It's a nice day." He walked with purpose straight through the castle and paused in front of a door. He took a deep breath and opened the door, quickly closing it behind him.

Quatre sat up from his place on the bed and looked at his brother groggily.

"Zechs?" He yawned. "What's wrong? Did you figure something out?"

Zechs stood at the foot of his little brothers bed and shook his head. Quatre's face fell and he moved closer to see his brothers face.

"Then what?"

"I…" Zechs hesitated and sat on the bed. "Something happened to me…"

Quatre looked over his brother for a moment. He noticed the goofy smile and the tired posture. "What…have you been doing?"

Zechs blushed slightly and turned to Quatre. "I…I've met someone." He whispered.

Quatre's eyes widened and he leaned in closer, as though someone may hear them. "You've met…well who is it?"

He shrugged. "I'm…I'm not sure really. It all happened so fast." He became flustered and his smile increased.

Quatre gasped and giggled. "Are you saying that you…And you just met?"

Zechs blushed again. "Yes."

Quatre giggled again and hugged Zechs tightly. "That's wonderful! I'm so happy for you!"

Zechs returned the hug and then pushed his brother back. "There's something you must know."

Quatre's face fell and he frowned. "…what?"

Zechs sighed. "I…He was a Dark Angel."

Quatre's eyes widened. "He was what!"

"Shhh," Zechs covered his brothers mouth and looked around the room as though someone may burst through the door at any moment. He turned back to Quatre and let his mouth go. "I know, it's a little unheard of."

"Unheard of!" Quatre stood up on his knees so he towered over his brother. "It's practically against the law! The Dark Angels value death! We cherish life! How can you possibly…"

Zechs stood. "I know, brother." He interrupted and began to pace. "I know I can't expect anything to come of this…" He stopped and turned to face Quatre. "But when I'm with him…I…I can't explain it. It's amazing."

Quatre smiled sadly and sat back down. "I'm glad you're happy, Zechs. But I don't see how it can last."

Zechs nodded sadly. Suddenly an idea hit him and he smiled. "Quatre!" He leaned in and held his brothers arms. "Would you…would you maybe…meet him?"

Quatre's eyes widened. "You…you want me to meet him? But that could be dangerous."

Zechs nodded. "I know. But…please?"

Quatre surveyed his brother for a long while. He was so happy, could Quatre really justify saying no? He smiled and nodded. "Alright. I'll meet him."

Zechs smiled warmly. "Thank you!" He hugged his brother. "I'm meeting him tomorrow. Is that okay?"

Quatre nodded. "Yes of course."

Zechs nodded. "Thank you again, brother. Thank you." He smiled and left the room.

Quatre watched his brother go and sighed. "For your sake, brother, I hope this all works out…"

Duo practically ran back through the forest and into the Dark Kingdom. He ignored all of the strange looks he received as he ran and burst through the large castle doors. He sprinted down the halls and burst into his bedroom, where Heero was still reclining against his pillow with the same book.

Heero looked up when Duo barrled in.

"Duo?" He placed his book down. "What's wrong?"

Duo shut the doors and threw himself on Heero's bed. "You won't believe what just happened to me!"

Heero raised a brow.

"Okay okay, I tell you." Duo grinned. "I just…" he paused and looked around the room. Lowering his voice he continued. "I just met the most amazing person in the world."

Heero frowned. "What are you talking about?"

Duo nearly giggled. "I think I'm…" He blushed. "I think I may be in love."

Heero's eyes widened for a moment. He composed himself and crossed his arms over his chest. "Are you planning on explaining anything to me or are you just going to have me guess?"

Duo grinned. "Okay. I...I met someone. In Limbo. And we..."

Heero rolled his eyes and picked up his book again. "So, you got laid." he said, bluntly.

Duo frowned. It was more than that, he was sure of it. He sat back and sighed. "Don't you even want to know who it was?"

Heero glanced at his brother again. "As long as it wasn't a human I don't care."

Duo couldn't help the grin that spread across his face. "It was an Angel."

Heero nearly dropped his book. He looked at his brother with wide eyes and tried to tell if he was being truthful. When he found no joke in those bright violet eyes, he spoke softly. "Duo...are you telling me...that you had sex with an Angel?"

Duo nodded, suddenly feeling nervous.

Heero sighed and leaned back against pillow. "Duo...this may be a problem."

Duo frowned. "Why?"

Heero looked into his gentle brothers' eyes. "Duo, this could be very important. Do you know his name?"

The brunette nodded. "His...his name...was...Zechs."

Heero sighed and lowered his gaze. "Of all the people in heaven, Duo, why did it have to be him?"

Duo blinked, confused. "I don't understand, Heero."

Heero looked up. "Duo…Zechs…Zechs is the eldest prince to the Kingdom of Heaven."

Duo's eyes widened and he felt faint. Heero had to grab his arms so he wouldn't fall off the bed.

"Oh…my…oh…what am I…oh…my…" Duo muttered over and over again. He looked up to Heero. "What have I done?"

Heero sighed. "Did he say anything to you? You know…after?"

Duo thought. "He…he asked to see me again. I'm supposed to meet him tomorrow."

Heero nodded. "Okay…well…" he stood. "Let me go with you."

Duo looked up at his brother. "Wh-what're you gonna do?" He asked fearfully.

Heero crossed his hands over his chest. "Just see what his intentions are." He sat back down and touched Duo's arm. "Listen, if he really wants to pursue some form of relationship with you, then I'm happy for you. But if he's just using you…" He sighed. "Duo, in heaven, it's frowned upon to be with a person of the same sex. And it's practically illegal for an Angel to be with a Dark Angel."

Duo nodded and looked down. "I…should have just left. I shouldn't have done it."

Heero bowed his head. "Maybe not. But…I'm glad you did."

Duo looked up. "What?"

Heero smirked, which was a rare occurrence. "I haven't seen you this happy in a long time. It's…it's nice."

Duo smiled. "Thanks Heero."

The short-haired brunette nodded. "I just want what's best for you. You know that?"

Duo nodded. "Yeah."

The brothers shared a hug before Duo stood up. "I'll let you get back to your book. I think I'm gonna take a shower."

Heero lay back and picked up his book. "Good idea. You still smell like sex."

Duo blushed furiously and ran off to the bathroom.
