This story is a sequel to One Last Chance. I reread One Last Chance and then reread the sequel I had started and decided why not finish it! I hope you enjoy!

Summary: (because OLC is 38 chapters long, though I still think you should read it. ) Duo and Heero meet while Duo is in a relationship with another man. This other man cheats on dear Duo-chan and is swiftly kicked out of his life. However, Duo just happened to be pregnant – the result of an experimental surgery. Heero and Duo start out as friends and move to lovers. After many trials, attempts on their lives and a very dangerous delivery of a beautiful little girl, the story ends.

CHAPTER 3

Heero came home with two bottles of very fine wine (one red, one white) with every intention of taking Duo to a hotel room and getting him raving drunk. He had convinced Quatre to stay the night with Camille so that Heero could have some time alone with Duo. Quatre was waiting in the driveway.

Duo's week old car was in the garage and Heero didn't see him anywhere on the first floor so he crept upstairs to the nursery and sure enough, there was Duo, humming to Camille as she slept against his chest.

Heero smiled and felt his heart clench.

"Duo?" Though he said it softly, Duo still jumped. Camille fussed a little, but Duo shushed her.

"I thought you were going to be late tonight?" Duo asked, laying Camille into the crib.

"It's 9 o' clock. It is late." Heero smiled and pulled Duo close. "I have a surprise for you."

"Another one?" Duo asked. "Is it my birthday or do you want something?" He laughed.

"Or maybe I've just realized how much I love you?"

"Just realized? You mean all that stuff before was pretend?" Duo asked mischievously and considered. "Well, okay, that excuse can work for now." Duo walked quietly out the door and headed downstairs. "Where's my surprise?" He paused as he saw the two bottles of wine. Neither one of them held their liquor all that well. So one bottle of wine was plenty to get them both a bit tipsy.

"It's actually outside, in my car." Heero said and lead the way, with Duo close behind. He heard the front door shut quietly and knew Quatre and Trowa had made it in safely. Duo turned at the sound as well, but Heero grabbed his wrist and pulled him along. "Get in my car Duo." He said it in the most sultry voice Duo had ever heard. Duo noticed Quatre and Trowa's car outside and smiled. He jumped in the car and kissed Heero quite passionately.

Heero groaned and shifted into gear. He wasn't sure they would make it to the hotel suite.

Duo was laughing insanely now as he chased Heero around the room, both of them naked. Duo leapt at Heero and pinned him to the ground.

"I like this surprise Heero," Duo slurred into Heero's ear, as his tongue did naughty little things that made Heero groan.

"Don't tease me Duo," He rolled and Duo ended up on the bottom. "It might be the last surprise for awhile, it would be wise to make the best of it." He said panting as he ran a finger through Duo's hair. "Don't disappoint me." He said with a laugh.

"Don't worry. . ." Duo growled.

Duo woke up slowly, his head pounding from the amount of alcohol they had consumed. He looked at the clock. 12:35. Duo sat up quickly and looked around, searching for Heero. He wasn't there, so Duo lay back down. Heero probably went to work anyway, being the incredible man that he was.

Incredible indeed, he had kept Duo up 'til dawn, seemingly insatiable. They needed to do this more often. Duo giggled, and closed his eyes, letting his mind wander. Suddenly, a very, very disturbing thought occurred to him.

"Shit!" Duo sat up and stood, looking around wildly. Throwing the blankets in the air, Duo searched for and in complete and utter happiness found what he sought. Duo covered his eyes in relief.

There was the condom, he was surprised that he'd remembered. He had meant to have a talk to Heero about it, but he had forgotten. He stood and began to get dressed, determined to tell Heero right away. If he hadn't remembered. . . well, there could be another problem. He paused and realized he didn't have anything to drive home with, until he saw the keys on the table along with a note.

Dear Duo,

I took a taxi, you can have the car.

I wanted to tell you last night, but I just couldn't say it to your face. I am leaving for a while Duo. I don't know when I will be back, but don't worry, it won't be too long. Something came up, I tried to tell you a dozen times last night, but (whatever he had written was very thoroughly scratched out)

Do not worry Duo, if anything happens, you will know.

I love you,

Heero.

Duo stared at the note for a moment in astonishment, the he crumpled it up in his hands and left the hotel immediately. He marched down to the parking lot, got into the car and drove way beyond the speed limit to the one place where Heero might be – Relena's.

He knocked on the door and kept on knocking. No one was answering, but Relena always had someone around. Always. Finally, he yelled through the door, "If someone doesn't let me in, I will break a window and I don't care who catches me!"

The door opened slowly and there was Relena herself. Her eyes were red with dark shadows underneath them, she seemed to be in pajamas and she didn't look very surprised to see him.

"Come in," She motioned him in and locked the door. "Won't you sit down?" Her voice was quiet and exhausted. Duo felt a bit guilty, but he had to find out what was going on, no matter what.

"Where's Heero?"

Relena looked taken aback, "He didn't tell you?"

"No, he left me a bogus note and disappeared."

"He left today."

"Left?" Duo felt his heart stop, his breath catch. "Left for where? For how long?"

She swallowed and Duo realized that the redness in her eyes wasn't all due to lack of sleep, she'd been crying. "Tricla declared war yesterday, they already had soldiers on the move." She steered Duo towards a chair, "Heero left to stop them before it became too much."

"What!?" Duo looked at her, but suddenly a vague memory returned to him, from a long time ago. Heero had told him – he had said. . . "As long as there is peace, I will not fight." He didn't realize he had said it aloud, until Relena nodded in agreement.

"I told him he didn't have to fight, he wasn't under any obligation, but I think he was." Relena sat Duo down, "He feels he has to stop the war. I don't think he believes that anything can be resolved without him."

"Bullshit."

"I agree, he doesn't have to be out there – I tried to convince him. . ."

"Where is he going?" Duo leaned forward, looking Relena in the eyes. She seemed hesitant, "Where!"

Relena, startled by Duo's harsh outburst, stuttered, "He's going to Preen, on the border of Tricla. But Duo, you can't go there, you're not armed, you can't fly an MS or anything."

Duo looked at her stonily, "I know you don't like fighting, but I have to find Heero." She looked ready to protest and he smiled darkly, "And believe it or not, I have flown an MS before." He walked out and muttered under his breath, "Once."

Yay! Another chapter! This is pretty much amazing for me. If you ever read One Last Chance it was usually 1-3 weeks in between chapters. Reviews really help keep me writing – maybe it is lame, but when I get a review I want to write more. . . so if you can find it in your heart. . . review!
