Part Two
"Duo! Can you get me my water please?" Heero called from inside the tent of their small but comfortable camp in Bali. "Yeah sure Heero, just gimme a sec, kay?" Duo yelled from Quatre's tent where Trowa, Quatre, and Wufei were playing monopoly. Duo got up and grabbed the ice-cold water he had brought. He ran over to Heero's tent and accidentally tripped over some fishing rods. He got back up and opened the tent flap. He handed the water to Heero, panting caused by the running. "Thank you, koi." Heero kissed Duo on the lips softly and smiled. Duo was the one that broke off the kiss. "Sorry, Hee-chan, must get back to the game." Duo paused. "Do you want to join in? I mean, it's a little late in the game, but still." Duo arched one eyebrow at Heero. "No, I'm fine, but thanks anyway Duo. I think I'm just gonna sleep. Is that ok with you?" Duo fluffed Heero's millions of pillows like a concerned mom. "Ok with me? When are you ever gonna learn that I don't control you, Heero?" Duo chuckled and tucked Heero in. "I wanna kiss!!!" Heero whined. Duo rolled his eyes. "Of course my dear child, whatever you want." Duo said in a sarcastic voice. Heero laughed heartily and tried to stand up, and fell back down again. Duo helped him up by putting an arm around Heero's waist and pulling. Duo sighed. "Hee-chan, do you ever learn anything? You know you can't stand, much less walk. If you want to stand up or go somewhere just call my name, ok?" Heero grinned as strong arms pulled him up. "Thanks, koi." "Your welcome, and why didn't you just make me bend down? It would have been much easier for you." Duo stared at Heero his eyebrow still arched. Heero giggled and kissed Duo. A long and passionate one. Duo gasped for air. He ruffled Heero's hair and turned to the flap. I'm forgetting something…right! Duo whacked his head. He'd forgotten to lower Heero back down onto the bed. Heero was just standing there next to his bed, with crossed arms, and a scowl on his face. "Yes. You forgot. For the fourth time now." The scowl turned into a grin. "I'm sorry, Hee-chan, I just have a lot on my mind. I promise I won't forget again. It slipped my mind. Will you remind me next time I make that same mistake, if I do? I'm truly sorry, Heero." Heero looked as if he were about to cry. "Duo, don't apologize, it's fine, yes, I will remind you, but please don't feel guilty about this. It's not like I can't get into bed, its just that it hurts a little, so I don't like doing it. But don't apologize, there's no need." Duo had tears in his eyes as he walked over and embraced Heero. "Thanks, and I seriously don't understand you….you forgive me for everything! Even when I accidentally punched you in the stomach! I mean, you're going through so much, yet your so nice." Duo sighed and let go of Heero. Heero took Duo's arms and looked into his eyes. "Course I do! I love you, so why wouldn't I? And plus, when you punched me in the stomach you apologized about ten million times! And it was meant for Wufei!" Heero giggled as he remembered the incident. Duo put an arm around Heero's neck, and an arm behind his knees. He picked him up ever so gently. He softly put Heero down on his bed. He kissed Heero on the cheek lovingly. "Night, Hee-chan. Sweet dreams." "Goodnight, koi, I'll be dreaming about you." Duo smiled and blew out the lantern. Duo sighed as he heard Heero's snore. A little tear of happiness trailed down Duo's cheek. He quickly wiped it away and walked out, zipping the tent flap. As he walked to Quatre's tent he saw Heero's lantern flare up. He looked up in panic. He saw Heero make a little heart shape with the shadow of his fingers. He shook his head, and laughed. The light turned off and he continued walking towards Quatre's tent. That's my Heero.
"What took you so long, Duo?" Quatre raised an eyebrow in Duo's direction. "Heero was making love signs. You'd think he was crazy…" Duo sighed happily as he glanced at the board. "Aw, someone took the Free Parking? ™ Too bad, I still have tons of money." He had bought 3 houses and had 4 hotels. He was rich. Duo grinned. "Your turn, Duo." Wufei passed him the dice. Duo shook them in his hand and threw them onto the board. 6 and 4. He moved his little thimble and landed on tax. He made a face and paid $398 monopoly money.
Heero was thirsty again. He reached for the bottle and unscrewed the cap. He took a long gulp, his parched throat now relieved. He felt the fluid in him bounce around. He had to go to the bathroom and badly. He didn't want to bother Duo, so he got up slowly, his stomach aching from the drugs the hospital had given him. He winced. It hurt a little bit but he could manage. He got his temporary cane, and started to walk to the bushes right next to the lake. He reached his destination and put the cane down. He yelled as he lost his balance and fell into the cold water of the lake. He couldn't swim.. He surfaced, gasping for air. "Duo! Duo! Help!" His head sunk under water.
Duo yelled and got up as fast as he could, accidentally knocking over the board. "Heero! I'm coming! Just hold on!!!" He ran as fast as he could to the lake and only saw a couple of bubbles. He took off his shirt and dived in at full speed. He took a deep breath and plunged under water, searching for Heero. His hand hit something hard, obviously Heero's head. He grabbed it and surfaced. He took hold of Heero's shirt and pulled him to shore. He hadn't been under water very long, so he wasn't unconscious. "Heero? Hee-chan, can you hear me?" Heero spluttered and he coughed up some water. "Muh." Duo was about to pick him up but Heero stopped him. "I….I can walk…" He stood up, swayed and fell back down again. It was obvious that Heero was dizzy from swallowing too much water. Quatre came running up to him and draped a towel over Heero's shoulders. Heero was shivering. Visibly. Duo could feel him shaking in his arms, so he held him to his chest tighter. Heero's head lolled back and Duo realized in panic that he might be unconscious. But no, he had just fallen asleep in Duo's arms. Duo smiled shakily, placing a kiss warmly on the top of Heero's forehead. As he got to the tent, he remembered to thank Quatre. "Hey Qat! Thanks for the towel, man. Oh, and could you please put away my stuff from the game? I think Heero should have some company, and I'm too tired." Quatre smiled, and nodded. Duo was grateful that Qat hadn't come in and tucked Heero in with him. He wanted to do it. He pushed open the tent flap and put Heero in his bed. He needs to change his clothes…or else he'll get sick…but I don't want to wake him up. Duo shrugged and shook Heero lightly. "Wha…" Heero sat up. "Hee-chan, you have to change your clothes or else you'll get a cold. Kay? So you're gonna have to stand up." Heero nodded and slowly stood up. Duo peeled off his clothes and got him some dry ones. After Heero had changed, Duo lowered him into the bed, sliding in next to him. He pressed his body to Heero's, too warm him up, and felt Heero shivering. He pulled the covers over Heero's shoulders and before long Heero's body stopped shaking. Straight after they both fell into peaceful slumber.
Duo woke up, the sun blasting its way through their tent. He turned to the back side of the tent and shut the tiny curtains. He noticed that Heero wasn't in the tent. He panicked and turned on his heel, only to bump right into Heero. Heero smiled. "Morning, koi!" He kissed Duo affectionately. Duo sighed with relief. "Morning, Hee-chan. How come your up so early?" Duo arched an eyebrow at him. "Oh I don't know. I've been up since dawn, watching the sun rise, its very pretty you know. Oh, and if you want any breakfast I made some scrambled eggs." Duo smiled at his lover. "Thanks. And since dawn?!? Are you crazy? You got…what?…6 hours of sleep? That's nothing! Oh well, considering you'd never seen a sun rise before, I'll let you off. But this is your only warning! Is this the Heero I know? Saying something's pretty?" Duo laughed heartily. Heero grinned and walked out of the tent with Duo, holding his hand. Heero sat down on a large rock and patted his lap. Duo grinned and put on a baby voice. "Yayee! I get to sit on mommy's lap!" Duo sat down on Heero's lap lightly. Duo looked at his watch. 6:37. Hmmm, I wonder why I got up so early. And I'm not even tired. Heero cuddled him and Duo closed his eyes. "Love you." He heard Heero breath into his ear. He shuddered. "Love you too." They stayed like that for about half an hour before Duo said he had to eat something. He chewed on a piece of scrambled egg. "Since when did you learn to cook like this?" Heero grinned…a little evilly, and pulled out a cooking book from his backpack. The egg fell out of Duo's mouth as he doubled over laughing. "Hey…" He gasped for breath. "That's mine!" Heero sneered at him. "I made it with my own ingredients. But I can't believe you use a cookbook for scrambled eggs!(1) It's so easy! I didn't even know what to put in it, and you said its good!" Heero fell off the rock and held his stomach, laughing so much that tears were pouring down his face. Duo jokingly glared at Heero and stomped over to his tent. As he was about to go in, his shoe caught on a rock. He fell face first in the mud, causing Heero to erupt in a fit of giggles once again. "Your such a…" The giggles took over his body, enabling him to talk for a second. "Baka…" He finished with much trouble. Duo threw his shoe at Heero and Heero dodged it. My stomach hurts…Duo thought. He looked down with groggy eyes. Heero was prodding him with a stick. "Duo…you've been sleeping since the afternoon, and now ittts…" Heero stared at his watch for a second. "7:28 pm…you should wake up now!" Duo swatted the stick away and grumbled something. Heero smirked. He loved poking people. It would be so great to poke someone for money…..a poking job….Heero's eyes shone. Duo stared at him. What the…Heero walked past Duo and poked him in the stomach with a finger. Hard. "Owie! Heero…will you ever stop poking me?" Heero grinned wickedly. "One word Duo. Never." Heero grinned. Duo muttered to himself.
Me=Bufoi….email me if you think I should change my name. ^_^
Duo: Hey…aren't we kinda forgetting something?
Me: Nooo….not that I can remember…what am I missing?"
Duo: *Grin* Well its just a matter of life and death. *Examines nails* *Like a girl*
Heero: Ooh! Tellmetellmetellme!!
Me: *Shakes head* Heero will never learn, will he Duo?
Duo: Never. *Maniacal laughter*
Me: *Pokes Duo, then grins at Heero* Oi….will you tell me what I forgot or not? *Arches eyebrow*
Duo: *Explodes* Will you people ever stop poking me?!? It gets really annoying! *Crosses arms* Why should I tell you? You just poked me!
Heero: *Sneers* Someone had to be poked during this…this…*Stares at me, waiting for me to tell him the word*
Me: Interlude, I guess you could call it. *Pouts* Duuuoooooo…..c'moooon. Puhleeaaasseee? *Puppy eyes*
Duo: *Sighs and re-crosses arms* Fine. You forgot-
Heero: *Quickly puts hand over Duo's mouth* Duo..don't…we could not tell her and make her bribe us…think Duo…think! Money……lots and lots of money. *His eyes shone*
Me: Hey…heeeey! I heard that!
Duo: *Evil grin* We could…and will. *Rubs his hands together greedily*
Me: *Glares* Fine by me! I'll just get on with the story. I'm not givin' any o' you kids money!
Duo and Heero: *Glares back* You're a kid too! Your even younger then us! *Walk over to Me slowly*
Me: *Whimper* Now now guys…be nice…
Duo and Heero: *Tie Me to a chair and put the chair with me on it in the corner*
Me: Guuyyys….c'mon….how am I gonna make you kiss in my story if I'm all tied up?
Duo and Heero: *Sigh* Fine….but don't you dare try anything funny when we untie you!
Me: *Smug look* Oh no…I wont. *Mischievous twinkle in eye*
Duo: *Hand Me paper and pen* There ya go.
Me: *Sulks* Guuuyyyyss…..I hate writing on paper! *Sticks lower lip out and stares at Heero*
Heero: Ooooh no. You are never going to get to use my laptop! Its mine! Get your own…
Duo: *Evil grin* Hey, Buf?
Me: *Glares* What?
Duo: How do you keep a blonde busy? *Smirks*
Me: Oh dear god no! Not the blonde jokes, please Duo, anything BUT the blonde jokes! *Tries to cover ears* *Fails miserably* *Tries to drown out jokes* Lalalalalalalalala….Mary had a little lamb little lamb….*Fails miserably*
Duo: *Still smirking* You put her in a round room and tell her to sit in a corner.
Me: *Panics* Help me. Help meeee! *Grabs flashlight and flashes it on and off at the neighbors window.* (Take off from Panic Room) Somebody help me! HELP MEEEEEE!
Duo: *Takes the flashlight away* I will only stop if you continue to write your fic. Now.
Me: *Sighs* Fine, Duo.
Duo: *Pats head* Good dog. Me: *Glares* Duo: *Smiles* Remember to include the kissing!
Duo put his head on Heero's lap and *kissed him*(2) Heero pulled away and glared at Duo. "Don't." Duo blinked and frowned. "Eh?"
Duo: Bufffoooiiiii!!!!! What did you do to him? Heero? Why wont you let me kiss you?
Heero: Hn.
Me: *Smirk*
Duo: Oh, great. Heero's back to his monologue! Ugggghhhh…
Me: Calm down, Duo. If you had just asked me to change Heero then I would have. Although he is already quite out of character….hes usually never nice and always grumpy.
Heero: Hey! Am not!
Me: Heero, admit it. You. Are. Mean…..To. Duo. And. Everyone. Else. Ok? Admiiiit. It.
Heero: Hn.
Me: Oi. Stop. It. Oiiii. Heero. Stop. Controlling. The. Computer.
Heero: Well…your not being very nice! *Glare*
Me: Shut. Up. Heero.
Heero: Oi! That's my line. Not yours. Not. Yours. Mine. All. Mine. Forever. My. Precious.
Me: Heero, stop quoting from Lord of the rings! You sound like a baka…
Heero: Oh, I sound like an idiot do I?
Duo: *Rolls eyes* *Whispers to *real* author.
Me: Whatta you mean, real author? I'm the author. The real author. Real author. Crap author. I. Suck. I. Can't. Write. Anything. Without. Help. From. Heero. Heeeerrooo! Stop ittt! God, that's annoying!
Heero: *Snigger*
Duo: *Sulks* Can we please get back to the story here?
Me and Heero: Fine *Sigh*
Duo *kissed* (3) Heero. Passionately. For a loooong time. Heero smiled *warmly* at his lover. (4!!!) "C'mon, honey, lets go make some pasta." Heero licked his lips….or shall I say chops? *Evil grin* Oops…I'm not supposed to be in this…*Smiles sheepishly* I'll just go now…Duo and Heero look puzzled. "Who was that?" Heero scratched his head. *Pops back in for a sec* Oh, and Heero really is that blind and stupid! "Scurries out door* Heero's eyes bulged and his face went red with anger. "Uh…Heero…you're not supposed to get angry on set…." Duo stared at Heero. Heero kicked a rock at the *non-existent* door, *someone* had just gone through. "I'll get you for this!" He stomped off the set to leave a confused Duo just standing there.
Duo: Ok….what's with all the set talk, people? This is a story. Not a movie. Noooot. A. Movie!
Heero: I'm busy, Duo. Don't expect me to say anything! *Chases Me around the room*
Me: *Hides under the bed* *Tries to make no noise whatsoever*
Heero: *Peers under bed* Aha! Get outta there!
Me: *Slightly shocked at seeing Heero's ugly face for a moment* Meep!
Heero: *Explodes* Ugly? UGLY?!?! I am NOT ugly! *Catches Me by the hair and pulls* *Hard*
Me: Owweeee…*makes face* Hurts…
Heero: Take it back.
Me: No.
Heero: *wraps Me's hair around fist and twists it*
Me: *Flails arms wildly* Okokokokok! Stop pulling the hair!!! Ow….*Rubs neck*
Duo: I can't believe you did that to Me, Heero! You KNOW she was teasing you.
Heero: *Grumbles* Fine.
Me: Sorry, Heero. You're not ugly. You are beautiful.(But really he is) (soooo handsome) *Drools*
Heero: *Puffs chest proudly* *Arrogant posture* I no.
Duo: *Shakes head* The two of you should be ashamed of yourselves! Heero and me: Shut up, Duo!
Duo: *Hurt look* Ok.
Me and Heero: *Rolls eyes* Duo…don't be offended…
Duo: *Crosses arms* I'm not. *Lower lip sticks out*
Me: Oh great, more pouting!
Heero: Will everyone just SHUT UP?!?
Me and Duo: Why don't you? You're the one that's being loud.
Heero: *Sigh* You're so childish.
Me: Childish? CHILDISH?!? Duo I can understand…but I am NOT childish!!
Duo: *Glare* Hey!
Me: *Stomps off* Go 'way! I wanna write and you guys are annoying me!
Duo and Heero: Humph.
Me: *Blinks stupidly* Wait…..Duo?
Duo: *Arches eyebrow* Yeah?
Me: You said earlier that I had forgotten something. What did I forget?
Duo: *Grin* To include Quatre, Wufei, and Trowa and the fic.
Me: *Slaps head* Ack! I DID forget a big thing…uh ooohhh. Wufei's gonna be ma-a-a-d!
Duo and Heero: *Evil grin* Yeppers!
Qautre, Trowa, and Wufei came out of their tents. "Hey guys. God, I cant believe we slept that long!"
Wufei: *Turns to Me* FINALLY!!!!!
Me: *Jumps* Now Wufei….calm down.
Wufei: *Advances on Me* NO! I like to be included in stories you know! And that was mean! Rambling on about stupid Heero and Duo! Lovers…*Mimicks my voice* What a sweet little couple!!!
Me: HEY! I do NOT sound like that! *Backs up, only to find self trapped in corner*
Heero and Duo: HEYYYY!!! We're a nice couple! Not some girly one…its not like we go to the woods and gather flowers or something!
Me: *Snicker* That would be funny…
Duo and Heero: Bufoi….don't even think about putting that in the story!
Me: Why ever not?
Heero: Omae O Korosu.
Me: *Falls on floor dramatically, pretending that I have just been shot* O dear! Help me!
Heero: *Growls* Stop it.
Me: *Gets back up* Well….you NEVER stop saying your going to kill me. You might as well stop telling me that, cause I know your never going to!
Heero: *Glare* Oh yeah, what makes you think so?
Me: *Smirk* Who would finish the fic? Eh? EH?
Heero: *Mutters* I hate you.
Me: Awww! *Chibi eyes* I love you too Heero!
Duo: *Glare* Shut up, Bufoi. He's mine.
Me: *Growls* I was being sarcastic, stupid.
Heero: Don't call Duo stupid. I'm warning you.
Me: *Puts hand to forehead* Oh no! I'm so scared!
Heero: *Thwaps Me* Shut up.
Me: *Pouts* Fine.
"Hey guys?" Trowa arched an eyebrow. "Yeah?" Everyone said in unison. "Well…I don't want to spoil your trip or anything…but Dr. J asked me to come back for some experiment." Trowa kissed Quatre on the cheek. "Aw, but Tro! We JUST got here!" A little frown creased Quatre's forehead. "I know. Sorry." Quatre sighed. "Can't I go? He could do the experiment on me!" Trowa smiled warmly. "No, koi. He said it should only work on me." Quatre pouted. "Do you have to go now?" Heero asked. "I mean, you've barely been here one day!" Trowa sighed. "Sorry guys, he said its important." Quatre snuggled with Trowa. "Important, my ass! He probably just wants to turn you into a five year old again!" Quatre stuck his lower lip out. Trowa chuckled. Quatre arched an eyebrow at Trowa. "So when do you have to leave?" "…" Trowa stared at Quatre. "Just tell me, Tro." Quatre waited patiently. Trowa made a face. "40 minutes." Quatre gasped. "What?!? How unfair is that! I barely got to spend any time with you!" Quatre sulked. Trowa kissed Quatre again. Trowa stood up and stretched. "I gotta go pack." Quatre followed Trowa into the tent, assuming he would want help.
"Okay, guys. I have to go now." Quatre looked worried. He hugged Trowa. "Love you, don't get into any trouble. Call me!" Trowa smiled. He placed a kiss on Quatre's forehead lovingly. "Love you too. And of course I'll call you! As soon as I get there." Duo patted Trowa on the back. "Off you go then."
Quatre sighed miserably. What if something happens to him? Kidnapped, shot, run over, a crash. There's so many possibilities… I miss Tro already. I wonder, if something did happen to him, what would I do? I doubt I could survive without him…Quatre played with some mud with a stick. He stood up and brushed imaginary dust specks off his shirt. "Where you going, Qat?" Duo raised an eyebrow. "Bed." Quatre replied. Duo looked at his watch. "But its only 6:47pm!" Duo pointed out. Quatre sighed for about the millionth time that day. "I know." He pushed open his tent flap and stared at the little picture of Trowa he had. It's not like he's going to be gone forever or anything…only a couple of days. Quatre drifted into uneasy sleep, dreaming about all the horrible things that could happen to Trowa while he was away.
"Man, I never thought Quatre would care so much about Tro leaving." Heero shrugged. "Dunno Duo, he's probably just lonely. He and Trowa haven't been parted since….well, a very long time ago." Duo nodded and bit into his BLT.(4) "Hmmmm."
Quatre jerked forward, drenched in sweat, and panting for breath. What the…c'mon….remember it, remember it. He told himself to remember the dream. Then it hit him with so much force he cried out. Tro? Trowa?!? Whats happening? GODS! Shit…don't do this….tell me its not real. An image of a bloody Trowa, lying in the corner of a cell abruptly filled his mind. SHIT! He hurled himself out of the bed and flung the tent flap open with so much force it ripped off and fell to the ground. Quatre ran so fast, it almost looked as if he was flying. "TROWWWAAAAAA!" He was crying now. The tears pouring down his face, shamelessly. "Duo, Heero…Wufei! Get packed now! We're leaving!" They all looked up, startled by his shout. They started packing immediately. They knew when something was wrong, but this just confirmed it. Quatre ran back to his tent and started to throw only the important things into his backpack. He left all his clothes. He hurriedly picked up the photo of Trowa, kissed the glass frame; and carefully put it in his bag.
"QUATRE!" Trowa called out, as another whip hit his back. He winced. He was bleeding. Heavily. And he was chained, so there was nothing he could do to stop it. He groaned. "You bastards." Trowa snapped viciously. Shit…it hurts so much. The insult only caused the Oz soldier to whip him harder. A tear ran down his cheek. Gods, I miss you so much Qat. If only you knew their plan…Trowa's eyes glazed over as the shadow of unconsciousness enclosed around him.
