*I do not believe in disclaimers.

(Congratulations Liz! You were my fifth reviewer so I get to mention you!)

Chapter 5: Broom Closets and Jealousy

Duo pulled Usagi out of the showers and to the locker room broom closet. He looked strange and worried. Unlike his usual self. Well, she hadn't known him for long, but she knew that sharp edge of content was a bad sign in anybody.

"Are you all right?" whispered his voice. She nodded her head and crossed her arms to cover herself. "You're lucky I got you out of there." he said under his breath.

"What?!" She screamed from the box she was sitting on. He quickly put his finger up to his mouth to signal her to be quiet. She didn't listen. "And what was with those noises? Lemme out! Right n-"

In Duo's hurry and urgency to protect her, he forgot that he had only known Usagi for a day. He swept her off the box and kissed her; he leaned close to her and kissed her deeply. Her eyes lay open it confusion, then slowly shut themselves subconsciously.

'He stopped kissing me!' she thought when he pulled away. He cracked the door and looked for a sign of his companions. No one was around.

'Good,' he thought as he double-checked for them, 'she's quiet now.'

"Why did you stop?" She whispered sarcastically. Duo looked back at her with astonishment. She was only joking, but Duo looked like he was put down a lot, so why not?

"Uh.well." He was stammering, 'I'm a real lady's man! I think.Cool!' He thought out slowly and hardly. Then he pulled his 'Casanova-self' together.

"I can't give the ladies too much at one time, ya' know?" He said coolly, "They'll never want me to stop."

He had a grand smile on his face and he thought he was charming the heck out of Usagi. She ran a finger along his chest. He had it backwards. She was charming the heck out of him.

She stood up and away from Duo. He began to re-braid his hair while she thought of how to correct the mistake of teasing him.

"I'm sorry Duo." she whispered as if to not disturb the silence. "Let's get back on the subject. Why are we in here?"

He looked the other way and closed eyes. "Hiiro was going to kill you when all the fun was over." He said boldly, without hesitation, without uncertainty. Standing up straight, fists clenched, Usagi sat down on the box; it was the only thing in there beside a mop and bucket. She wanted to rip it to shreds. But all she could do was gasp.

~With the other g-boys~

Trowa sat in the corner in his clean military uniform. His cheeks were still tinted red, and this was just one of those times when it was good to have bangs longer than your head. Nice long, brown bangs to cover up the Hazel eyes from being brought into the conversation.

"She will ruin our mission here." Hiiro stated briefly tucking his gun in his pants.

Quatre shook his head. 'It seems like his gun is everywhere you look.' he thought.

"We will dispose of her." Hiiro said, he didn't like those words, not towards Serena, but he stood behind them.

"Yes, I agree," Wu fei said, "And what I find ridiculous is that I have been complementing an Onna all day! That is plain. plain. incredulous! And Maxwell shouldn't have done that to us! Rubbing it in our face like that."

"Well might I tell you that the Onna was ahead of you in the obstacle course, target practice, and in the barb wire crawl." Quatre said boldly.

Wu fei shot Quatre a vicious glance. Quatre crossed his arms stubbornly. In his opinion, (which EVERYBODY knows) nobody should be killed unless they are evil and have killed others.

Wu fei looked at Trowa, "What do you think Barton?"

Trowa's invisibility act wasn't working. Oh well. "We shouldn't kill her; we should just be patient and wait a little before we jump into killing anybody. Killing her risks the mission more than letting her live. And we don't tell anybody."

Hiiro considered the thought for a second. "Alright."

"I will go look for Duo and Mrs. Tskino." Quatre offered.

"I will help you look for Maxwell." Wu fei said viciously.

"I think Trowa would be a little easier on him than you, Wu fei," Quatre said kindly. "How about it Trowa?"



~5 MINUTES LATER~



Usagi walked in with Trowa's shirt on, 'Quite cute.' Hiiro thought. He hit himself mentally. 'Not cute! Not cute! Not cute!'

Quatre walked in with a consoling hand on her shoulder, Hiiro eyed his hand resentfully. Then Trowa came with Duo's wrist in his hand. Duo quickly grabbed the door frame and began to pull himself back out of the door; he was in the nude still.

"No! Wu fei's gonna kill me!" he said in a high-pitched squeaky voice.

Hiiro grabbed him and pulled him through the door. Duo gave a small yelp after Hiiro shut the door on his fingers. Hiiro smirked at Duo's whimpering. But he straitened his face.

"What did you do to her?" He asked. Duo didn't hear his question. Hiiro pressed his foot against the door. Duo suppressed his scream.

"I said 'What did you do to her?'" Hiiro repeated.

"Nothing." Duo said through a suppressed scream. "Why, do you like her?"

"Bastard! Tell m-"

Hiiro was cut off by Usagi pulling on the door knob. He took this chance to correct himself, but thought a second. 'It is weak to show. what is it? Affection? Is this what I'm showing?' He snapped into sense.

"You could ruin the mission" he said.

Duo let out a sigh of relief as Hiiro took is foot off the door. Yet, Hiiro wondered, why was Duo still smiling?

Duo was smiling into Usagi's ear and whispering something to her. They were sitting in her bunk. She looked over at Hiiro with a solemn look. He didn't like that look in her eyes. 'They are supposed to be filled with love! Not anger!' Hiiro thought to himself. But they both began to smile. Usagi had a sweet blushing smile while Duo had a devious one. She looked at Hiiro easier now.

She was sitting up and looking at Duo. He was leaning on his elbow on her pillow. Hiiro didn't like the feelings she caused, he felt a special hate, not just general annoyance, towards Duo now. He felt weird about Duo and Usagi. But he continued to type on his laptop.

Wu fei looked over to the bunk with Usagi and Duo.

'So sickening. I'll be glad when lady Une orders us out of this place.'



~A COUPLE OF DAYS LATER~



Usagi got up and ready out of bed. She put her foot on Duo's head.

"I am the king of Mt. Braided Baka!" She said in his ear in a 'Wu fei voice.'

"That's great. Now I'll go back to sleep and you keep being king." He replied.

"Duo! It's Sunday! No training! Let's go to the pool!" Duo sat up straight. He didn't really like swimming. But. 'Usagi + Bathing suit= hot. I get a chance to go swimming. nah. for Usagi then. for women in bathing suits.' he thought.

They slipped quietly through the halls and stopped at the premises of the pool. Usagi left a note on Quatre's pillow, figuring he would calmly let the others know. If she had left it on Wu fei or Trowa's pillows, they wouldn't have cared. But if they left it on Hiiro's, he would come straight out there and slam Duo's fingers in a door again.

Hiiro found it. 'If I go to the pool. maybe I could just watch. She is interesting to watch.'

He slipped on a pair of swimming trunks and walked to the pool. Usagi was splashing Duo and they were playing, like friends. Not girlfriend- boyfriend. Just friend. Hiiro realized that now.

~Okay people! I need 5 reviews again! I won't post another chapter till I get 5 MORE!!!!!! ^.^ Thanx!
