Where's Duo?

OK just to tell you all now I had this chapter up for about a day before it was taken down so if you read it you were lucky if not it's one of the new ones because I have a few more chapters coming. And everyone who has been reading you all must give a BIG THANKYOU TO NANCY SCHUCH, because she had all the previous chapters saved, it only took me this long because I'm trying to make the past chapters better, and let the new ones make more sense. So yeah I've also been busy with volleyball and soccer so yeah. I hope to be able to write more, and sorry for babbling.

"Talking"

'Thoughts'

Heero's POV

Duo was asleep now as I walked back to his room with him in my arms. I laid him on his bed and just watched him for a little while. As I watched him I began to think of what has happened in the past week.

After Duo remembered both Quatre and Trowa, I thought it would be easy for Duo to remember all of us. I of course thought wrong. He talked to Quatre and Trowa a lot more and he kind of left Wufei and I out. I started to go back to my quiet and reserved self, but not on purpose. Though sometimes when I would grunt at Duo he would get this weird glimmer in his eyes. I have been trying not to push Duo away like I had in the past, and I was trying to express more emotions to him.

Now he has remembered Wufei and I'm still left out. He has even remembered who Relena is before he has remembered me. Maybe it's his subconscious way of getting back at me for being so mean to him all the time. I don't know…maybe he doesn't even want to remember who I am. Even though Duo would say he was my friend, he had really held me in content. NO! Duo doesn't lie, not even now. Why do I have to start having doubts about him now?

I pull myself back together and walk out of Duo's and my room. I see Wufei leaning against the wall on the other side of the hallway, waiting for me to come back out. I thank him in are own silent way of communicating. I appreciate the fact that he new I would want to be alone with Duo, even though he's not awake.

"Is he ok?" Wufei asked, as we start to walk down the hallway.

"Yeah, he just needs sleep." I replied

"That's good" the silence becomes a little uncomfortable to me after a moment

"So…do you know what he remembers?" I said trying to make a conversation.

"One thing is for sure is that he now knows the nicknames he used to call me by, but other than that I don't know."

I nod indicating that I had heard him.

"You know if you go back to your quiet, single syllable words you may never have Duo remember you" I turned to look at Wufei after he said this. "I'm, just telling you this because every time he has remembered something it's from us talking to him. If you don't talk he might not remember."

I shifted my eyes to the floor while I pondered Wufei's words. In the background though I heard a swooshing sound of a door opening, but ignore for it was probably a crew member.

'It's true what Wufei says, both Quatre and Trowa were talking to him… or at least Quatre talked and Trowa would add a few sentences here and there. Wufei was always talking… well yelling at Duo and threatening him with his katana. It's just that the only time we talked is when I told him to shut up, I was going to kill him, or just grunted…at…him.' I trail off at my thoughts.

"That's it!" I said aloud, making Wufei jump a little. I hear a clatter of something, and was about to look around to see what made it when Wufei said something.

"What's that?" he asked getting over the scare.

"You, Quatre, and Trowa would actually talk to Duo or at least share some brief conversations with him. I on the other hand would grunt at him or tell him to shut up and go away, the only time I said anything really always had to do with the mission we were on. Maybe he can't remember me because of how I've been acting. All three of you acted the same towards him, and I'm the only one that has really changed drastically since Duo has disappeared. That could be why he has been more comfortable around all of you and not me."

Wufei was absorbing all of what I just said, and I could tell he was trying to put it all together like I had. He then looked at me fully in the face, his eyes wider than usual.

"Your right, it makes sense as to why he remembered Quatre first. Trowa was lucky that he had Quatre know a lot about him and he has only changed a little bit, but he is still quiet. I on the other hand, really haven't changed my attitude towards him, because I he still acts the same and that just makes me act the same towards him. Such as when he was playing his music and I wanted it to be quiet, just like back then I was yelling at him to turn down the music and he is telling me that the music is good to listen to. This time though he wanted to know about my past, and I don't know why but I just started to tell him about it." He explained to me.

I nod, happy that he is on the same page as me. "I just hope he actually remembers me, and not get the wrong idea and believe that I hate him or something." I start to hate this plan a little while thinking of everything that could go wrong. "I just want to see if he had feelings for me of that more than a friend."

Wufei put a hand on my shoulder and I looked into his eyes. "I don't believe Maxwell will hate you, or that he ever will. I do think though that before he lost his memory he held some sort of loving felling for you because of how he acted around you.

I stare wide eye at Wufei for a second, because of how unexpected that comment was. I hear the sound of wheels rolling and squeaking, but I'm to stun at Wufei that my brain doesn't register it fully.

"W-why do you say that? How did he act around me that was so different than that around you and the others?" I stuttered a little.

Wufei smirked at me, amused at my surprise. "For one he would talk to you a lot more, and spent the most time around you. The other is that he would flirt with you though you didn't notice it, and he also would physically touch you in some way."

"But he talked to everyone and he was a natural flirt, I don't think he even noticed that he was flirting with the people he talked to. As for the touching I-uh-I think he just wanted to get a reaction out of me."

"Exactly, he wanted to know how you felt to his touches, and I believe he deliberately flirted with you. As for the others well they got the natural flirts that he didn't realize he was saying."

While placing all of this in order the hallway is deadly silent. I then hear another swoosh and a click of a door closing and I look around trying to see anyone who was coming. No one is heading this way, in fact I didn't hear the steps of anyone either. I then realize that the first swoosh I heard was of a door opening, and the second one was of a door closing, the click was the door locking into place. I look at Wufei who is listening just as intently as I am.

"Did you hear anymore sounds before this one?" I asked quietly.

"Yes, but I thought it was my imagination or another crew member." Wufei replied

"Yes but this crew usually makes a lot of noise while they walk or are talking to someone else."

We look at each other for a few seconds more before we both yell "DUO", and start to sprint back to his room.

We get to his door and I quickly open it, praying that he is still in there sleeping. I walk in and go up to his unmade bed and see that he is no longer there. Though from what I can tell is he didn't get up and walk away, because the covers were partly on the floor meaning someone dragged him out of the bed.

Wufei is looking at me as I turn to face him. He looks from me to the bed to me again, knowing he is thinking the same thing I am.

"Where's Duo?"

Relena's POV

I wait for Heero to leave his room so I can grab that gutter rat, but I first wait for Heero and that Chinese boy to get a little farther away. I don't want to be caught or else the spell, that rat has put on Heero, will make Heero help him.

When the two a far enough away I go over to open the door, of course making this loud swooshing noise, so I leave it open so it won't cause anymore noise. I bring in the trolley which will carry that trash out a lot easier than me carrying him out. I leave the trolley be for a moment and go over by the dirty slut. I didn't want to touch it, but had to if I wanted to inject the sleeping drug into him so he wouldn't wake up on me. I had already filled the shot with the fluid so all I had to do was inject it into him. I didn't know how this trash made it to be a Gundam pilot; they even compared him to my Heero. He couldn't even protect himself from someone who has never had any special training. I inject the shot into his arm and wait a few minutes, and then I grab the trolley and pull it closer to the bed to make it easier to get him on it.

As I pulled him off his bed it caused the sheets to fall to the floor a little, but I didn't care I just needed to get him onto the trolley to get him out of here quickly. I managed to get on without him falling, not like I cared if he did, but that would make to much noise and take to much time to put him back on. As I begin to wheel him out one of the wheels begin to squeak a bit, before it stopped. I hope no one heard that.

When I was out of the room, but the trolley still part way in I here a yell that sounded like Heero. It scared me so much that I jumped up, with holding my scream, but the needle fell out of my pocket clattering to the ground. I hold my breath waiting to see if anyone heard that. After a minute of no one coming I release my breath and pick up the needle and place it deeper in my dress pocket.

I go back to pulling the trolley back out of the room and into the hallway then closing the door so they won't notice he gone until later. The door though makes that loud swooshing sound again, but with a click also so you know it is completely shut. I don't bother to wait anymore I go as quickly as I can heading to the hiding spot so I can finally dump this trash and get Heero to show his feelings to me.

The first parts of my mission are going perfectly as I planned.
