"You want to know how I knew it was love? How I knew that this relationship of ours was something that would last? It happened this one night..."
"One night? That's all it took?"
"One night. Do ya want me to tell the story or what?"
"Go on."
"It must have been something like two or three in the morning. This was back when we lived in that shabby little apartment on Marengo Road, remember that place?"
"Yes."
"Well, I got up to get a glass of water. I used the toilet and then made my way back to bed, bumping into shit as usual. I got back into bed; back into my sweet spot and I snuggled down. You kinda did this half-awake thing and kind of moved a little in your sleep. And then, something happened that made me realize that this thing we have would work."
"And that was...?"
"You broke wind, Heero! You farted! Cut the cheese, blew a gas main, however you want to say it!"
"Duo!"
"You did, Heero. It stank too. At that moment I cursed every green vegetable and piece of meat that you ever ate. I was waving my hand in front of my face and my face was all scrunched up..."
"You know the hand waving does nothing to dissipate the miasma that gas creates..."
"I know, but at the time it seemed to be the thing to do."
"And what does me breaking wind have to do with us exactly?
"Well, I realized then and there that...if I could love you even when you are farting stinky farts in our bed...then I could probably love you through just about anything."
"Oh."
"Yep. That's how I knew it was love."
