It's Just Emotions

A/N: To Anya: yeah, so I was a bit cruel to Quat... Trowa can kiss him and make him feel all better though. And you think this is realistic? Cool... I know nothing about soldiers or any of the secret agent stuff, but I’m glad you find it believable. And you’re close in thinking of what happened to the others... sort of, okay not really, but it was a good guess anyways =P.

Quatre’s view

“What are you doing?” It took all my will power to not snatch my journal out of Trowa’s hands and smack the idiocy out of him. The book fell out of his hands. I walked quickly over and picked it up. I glanced at the page. I let out a huge sigh of relief.

“Why would you write that stuff down, do you know how dangerous it would be if...”

“Save me the lecture Trowa, I’ve already heard this from Heero.”

“Then why do you still do it?”

“Like I told him. I write down our missions in detail in that book because that is how I come up with the strategies all you guys seem to admire. I write down all my ideas and then pick the best one and then run though all possible scenarios of what could happen during it and come up with how best to avoid the worst ones, the possibilities I mean and...”

“Quatre, you’re rambling worse then Duo.”

“Well, you wanted to know why, didn’t you?”

“Yes I did, and you should really have a better hiding place for it.” He said as his hand gestured towards the book still in my hand. I didn’t know whether I should still be mad or just give in.

“I’m sorry I invaded your privacy, Quatre.” The latter choice it is then.

“It’s all right... actually it’s not all right and don’t do it again, but I’ll forgive you this time.” He just smiled at me.

Not much else happened in the next twenty something hours of our lives. Like the next morning, breakfast was quite uneventful, with Duo still upstairs and even though Heero didn’t usually talk, his absence was still felt. It wasn’t until later that evening that anything worth mentioning occurred.

I was walking through one hallway after another, Trowa’s note was still clenched in my hand. It had read:

We need to talk, meet me in the west wing at eight o’clock. The will be a note on the door.

That’s all it said. I didn’t need a signature to know it was from Trowa, though his handwriting was a little different from what I usually see. But the message was quick and too the point and very ...Trowa like. Besides I had already talked with both Wufei and Duo today and neither of them had needed to say something to me that would prompt the note I now had in my possession. Trowa was the only one that I HAD NOT seen today (except at breakfast). I was worrying for a while there. But then he did show up when Duo needed help going to the bathroom, but afterwards he mumbled a quick ‘I’ll be back’. But he never came back. I ended up falling asleep a little bit after lunchtime. When I woke up there was a note by my head. It was the note I now was fisting in my hand.

Finally, I found the door that had a note taped to it. Yeah, cause ‘the west wing’ was just a BIT too vague for directions.

Enter here, love.

I hesitated before opening the door. Love , that was something that Trowa wouldn’t write. Or would he. But before I could question it any further the door before me, opened up. Trowa stood on the other side. He had a weary smile on his face. I walked past him and into the room. At first neither of us spoke. The room seemed to be a small storage room. Just a few boxes sprawled about, no windows.

“What’s up?”

“What did you want talk about?” He asked. But didn’t he call me here. But instead of asking that another, just as important question, came to mind.

“Where have you been all day?” His expressionless face morphed into a small smile.

“I was called down this morning, after breakfast, by Mr. President, and was told that I was to go and help that, Zechs guy, out today. It seems that Mr. President’s daughter owns a couple of tigers. While she is away she always has this other guy take care of them but that guy is on vacation so Zechs was asked to take care of them instead. I was out helping him most of the day. Is that why you set this little meeting up?”

“Why would they ask Zechs to?”

“It seems he is Mr. President’s nephew.” I backed tracked everything else Trowa just told me. It would explain why he seemed so tired during those few minutes that I did see him today... and now, kind of. Then I saw Trowa’s small smile turn into a frown.

“But you knew where I was, right, otherwise how did you get your note to me?” He reached into his pocket and took out a small piece of paper.

“Wait, I didn’t set this up, you did!” I raised my own piece of paper to his eye level. We stared at each other for a few seconds. But we came to the same conclusion a bit too late.

SLAM

The door behind us closed and locked. Trowa rushed over to it. He jiggled the knob a bit and banged on the door.

“Hey, open up!”

“Trowa, you know it’s useless.” He stopped.

“How could somebody get in the building?” He was referring to who ever this creepo was, that locked us in. For a half a second I thought it could have been Duo, but after that bathroom incident I doubted he will even bother getting out of bad for the rest of the day.

“I don’t know, but Trowa, did you tell anyone you were coming here?” His eyes widened slightly.

“No, did you?”

“No.” I sat down on the ground. I needed to come up with our next plan of action because as it were, we were locked in a closet and no one but the one responsible for it, knew our location. We were trapped.

Heero’s view

When I woke up I could feel that I was in motion. I could hear the sounds of traffic all around me. I was in a car. I tried moving and I felt shearing pain originated from my left arm rip through me. I must have moved enough to alert the person driving that I was awake because whoever he was, he spoke.

“Take it easy there, buddy. We’re heading towards the hospital right know so just hang on.” I couldn’t go to the hospital. I knew I had to get back to the mansion as soon as possible. While grinding my teeth, I slowly sat up. I looked over at the driver. He seemed more shocked to see me then I, him. I took in my surroundings. I was in a mail truck, being driven by the mail carrier on a one of the roads I had taken to get up to the ‘house’. I watched as we drove by the street that lead to the motel that had been the ‘meeting point’. I knew all of my temporary comrades were dead now. I also knew that the mission had been completely out of my hands the second we had arrived. Shit, the entire mission was a trap. A trap set by Treize Khushrenada.

“Are you all right?” My attention was brought back to the situation at hand. I couldn’t go to the hospital. I needed to get back to the mansion. I couldn’t have this guy interfering. So I did the only thing I could think of on such a short notice.


“Again, I sorry for having to do this.” With that I left the mail carrier standing on the side of the highway as I headed for the mansion. Half way there it started to down pour. If I hadn’t memorized the mansion’s location, then I would never had made it back. But that didn't stop me from crashing into the front gate that had seemingly appeared out of nowhere.

CRASH

I stumbled out of the mail truck and made my way through the gap in the gate that I had just created.

“Heero!” I automatically pointed my gun towards the sound.

“Heero, it’s me, buddy.” I dropped my gun. It was just Duo. A waves of exhaustion and relief hit me as I felt (more than saw) him come towards me. A flash of lightning only confirmed what I already knew, Duo was safe, which meant the others were too. The mansion was still in one piece, and I was going to kill that son of a bastard, Treize, the second I lay my eyes on him.

I felt myself pitch forward.

“It’s going to be all right, Heero, everything’s going to be all right.” That’s the last thing I heard for the next few hours.


When I came to, I knew I was in a horizontal position and that someone was pacing back and forth in front of me. For the second time that day, I let my mind reply the last moments of my consciousness. The mail truck and its driver... getting here and not being able to see anything in front of me, and then...

My eyes shot open and into the eyes of the man who was standing at the foot of the bed. Into the eyes of the man who told me that everything was going to be all right. The look I saw in his eyes now seemed to betray that previous sentiment.

“You’re awake, good.” He moved over to my side. His brief statement worried me more than his eyes had. Something was horribly wrong.

“What’s wrong?” A small smile graced his lips then.

“As perceptive as always I see,” His smile faded, “Heero, I can’t find any of the guys, they went missing a little before you showed up, and I don’t know, I just feel like something of the not good variety is happening here.” I began to sit up. Pain from my arm spread through me again. Duo put his hand on my chest and tried to push me back down.

“Don’t.” He said, when my other arm guided his away from me.

“Don’t.” I echoed him. He opened his mouth to speak, but then instead of speaking, he continued to lean into me and then pressed his lips against mine. It was brief, but my lips burned for several seconds after. Every part of me wanted to kiss him again, but the pain that my arm was still causing me reminded me that, for just this one moment, there were more important things then Duo right now.

“Heero.. I’m sorry, I..”

“Duo, we can discuss this later, right now, we need to get out of here as quickly as possible.”

“What, why, what’s going on?”

“Treize Khushrenada was behind the Berkshire mission as well as the mess of a mission that I was just on. He told me that he implanted bomb in this building... “

“You talked with him?”

“Listen, I explain it all later, right now, we need to get ourselves out of here,” Even as I said this I was standing up and walking over to my duffle bag. “Go get your stuff.”

“But Heero, what about the others?”

“If they have been missing for as long as you’ve said they have, then they too know that this place is no longer safe to be in.”

“But what if they’re in trouble?” I was beginning to get irritated. Why doesn’t he just follow my orders the first time I give them, ever.

“They’re all big boys, they’ve been trained...”

“Okay one, we’re all only fifteen years old, two, what if...”

“DUO, either way, there is nothing we can do about it because we don’t have any time to go looking for them, now, go get your things together because we’re leaving... NOW!”


Quatre’s view

“We need to get out of here, now.” I said, as I dug through another box for anything that can be used to break the door open. A door with reinforced steel inside of it. My hopes of escaping went down another notch as I opened my fifth box and found it to be filled with old newspapers.

“And what do you suggest we do?”

“I don’t know, instead of just sitting there and staring at me, why don’t you help me!”

“Quatre, you know you won’t find anything that can break the door down in those boxes.”

“Then you think of something, then!” Trowa frowned at me then. How can he always be so damn calm all the time? We were trapped in a closet with no obvious way out!

“What is it that you think I am doing as I sit here and ‘stare’ at you.” I was too irritated to blush even the slightest at his remark as I ran my hands through me hair. I pulled my head back and gazed at the ceiling. All previous thoughts left as I stared at the ceiling. I grinned as I spoke to Trowa, my eyes never leaving the ceiling.

“Trowa, look up.” I didn’t have to look over, hearing the breath escape from his mouth told he saw what I did. The ceiling above us was tiled. The kind of tiles I used to have in my old bedroom back home. The kind of tiles that can easily move.


Wufei’s view

I concluded I was either dreaming or I really was skewed over royally, now. I laid against, well ‘lay’ isn’t the right word. Tied. Yes, I was tied up to a board in the middle of a room that was filled with at least twenty monitors. All of them were turned on and showing various room in the mansion. One showed Trowa and Quatre siting around in a small room. At first they had been banging on the door, but now they were just staring up at the ceiling. I was a little envious that although they too were trapped as I was, at least they were together and out of any immediate harm. Though I had a bad feeling that if the person behind all this wanted us dead, we would be by now.

From the other monitor I had also watched as Heero returned. I watched as he and Duo talked, kissed and then started packing things up in their separate rooms. Well, it was about time they kissed, but I wish I knew what they were saying. I didn’t like that they were packing up. They can’t leave now, not while the rest of us are trapped in various ways here!

“You know that tingling feeling you get when you feel as if someone is watching you?” A voice directly behind me said. I hadn’t even felt a presence behind me. The fact that he didn’t make any movement to come into my eyesight make me even more uneasy than the fact that I hadn’t noticed him.

“What do you want?” He started laughing then.

“You didn’t know I was behind you, and it scares you that you didn’t notice me, but, you see you wouldn’t notice my presence, Wufei, because I’ve been watching you. I’ve been behind you one way or another for a very long time.”

Truth be told, I wasn’t scared before, I felt a little uneasy, but not scared. But I was beginning to feel extremely uneasy now. I can’t attack a target I can’t see and the things he was saying were just plain creepy.

“What do you want?” I repeated. If I got him talking long enough I might be able to get him to move into my eyesight, from there I can get him to continue talking as I think of a way out of this.

“I’ve been watching you all actually, you amuse me the most, by far.”, I could hear him moving around behind me. “I want you to look at the monitor in the very center.” Since I heard no further movement I complied. The monitor that was displaying a hallway changed. It changed to a bathroom. But it wasn’t just any bathroom. I watched as Quatre walked in, undressed and hopped into the shower. I watched as I entered the bathroom a few minutes later. I couldn’t believe what I was seeing, yet I was seeing it all the same.

“How is this possible?”

“You ask far too many questions, Mr. Wufei.”, Before my mouth could do anything rash, I had to remember that for the moment, he was in control. “But I will answer that last one.” He finally came into my view. He had a gun in his right hand and a controller of some sort, in his left.

“I have been sent to personally inform you as well as your friends that you all have been under the control of my boss.”, He paused for a few seconds before continuing. “Now, I know what you’re thinking, ‘I haven’t been under anyone’s control’ but, I’m afraid you have been. Every mission you’ve had was pre-planed, every capture well rehearsed, as well as all your wonderful, and at times seemingly impossible escapes from death.”

“I don’t understand.”

“Yes, well it did take Heero a few tries to understand it all as well.”

“Heero?”

“Well, of course, Heero knows,” He stretched his arm out to the monitors behind him, “For quite some time now, I was actually expecting you to have some knowledge on this matter before I came here. After all, it just doesn’t seem like our Heero to withhold such exquisite details concerning the very well being and future demise, and yes, I said demise of his fellow comrades. A dastardly plot that until now was all planned out step by step, with all of you young lads being none the wiser, of course.” My confusion was quickly beginning to become replaced by anger. Yuy knew about this!

“Now, I’m sure you’re quite angered to hear this, but I don’t believe that this would be the best time to confront your former comrade. I mean you did after all play with the object of his attractions while he was away, did you not?” He was now staring at one of the monitors. It showed Heero and Duo on the main stairwell, in the mansion, Heero was currently talking to Miss Relena Peacecraft, who was situated at the bottom of the stairs and was gazing up. I watched as she quickly ran up the stairs and flung her arms around Heero.

“Interesting.” Treize said in a low voice. He then turned back to me. His last speech repeated in my head.

“You made me do that.” And what I really wanted to know was ‘why’. Why was this happening, why had he made me touch Duo in the bathroom, why was he holding me in here now, why was he telling me all those things about the missions all being pre-planed and why did Heero know all that but never told us? There were just too many ‘whys’ in my head, yet something told me that this man was only going to give me the answers that he wanted to give. But with the way he likes to talk so much, there must be a way that I can manipulate him into giving me what I want.

“I might have made you do ‘that’, Wufei, but I’m sure it’s a small detail that Heero will be more then willing to overlook. After all, you do have a history of playing with your teammates and if Trowa’s reaction was any indication to how easily the boys can turn on you, then I am definitely looking forward to your meeting with sir Yuy.” He smiled at me as he said this. He was also making the mistake of inching towards me as he talked. He was almost within my range. Then something occurred to me as to why he might have made me even touch Duo in the first place.

“You want us to turn on each other.”

“Very good, Wufei, I’m impressed. Although I must admit that wasn’t the original plan when this whole thing had all started out. In fact the whole point was to get you five to work together. To become what my boss liked to call ‘The ultimate soldiers’ But if course you see the flaw in that don’t you.” Besides the fact that is was an impossible goal.

“There can only be one ultimate solider.”

“Exactly, but even that ideal won’t seem to work with you five. You see just as my boss was beginning to like the idea of you all being pitted against each other something very unplanned began to happen.”, He paused again and took another step towards me. I watched he gaze go towards something behind me for a second before gazing back at me. “Your hormones began to kick in.”

“Then why are you still trying to get us to fight each other?”

“Patience, I am getting to that,” He took another step closer and took another look at whatever was behind me. “Now, although it would seem like the plan had backfired, and in a way it did,it’s more like the plan has changed, it’s been ‘slightly modified’, if you will. Instead of trying to see who out of five of you is the best, it’s more like which fighting pair is the best. We have the bad ass team of Heero and Duo, and the sweeter if not just as deadly team, of Quatre and Trowa.”

“And me?” I had been working on the tie around my wrist since he had come into my view. If I could keep him talking for a few more minutes... I also wasn’t minding that fact that he was still inching towards me.

“Oh, of course we didn’t forget about you. Tell me Wufei don’t you think it’s a bit odd that Mr. President’s niece and nephew just happened to be visiting the at the same time you five showed up? Especially his nephew, who only visits maybe once, every five years. Tell me, how badly did you want to kiss Zechs, that day, outside the briefing room?” All I could do was stare blankly at him. Zechs was in on this?

“Zechs?”

“Which of course brings us to the next scene of this little show.”

“Scene?” If you didn’t notice, I was at a lost for words at the moment.

“Yes, see any minute now,” He took another look behind me, which explained what he was looking at, a clock. “Zechs should have received a note telling him to come to this location right away if he ever wants to see his dark haired beauty again.”

“You mean he’s not in on this little... plan you and your boss have?”

“Why goodness, no, In fact, after he ‘rescues’ you, I am to go and inform Quatre and Trowa of the boss’s ‘plan’ as you so eloquently put it. As of this moment I’ve been holding them up in a closet for safe keeping.” He took another step forward as I got my right hand free from the tie.

“Let me go.” Although I don’t know why I thought I should give him a fair chance to stop this before it turned ugly. But he seemed to have either not heard what I had said or chose to ignore it. Either way he took another step closer, but he was also raising his gun up.

“Zechs Merquise shall be arriving to the set in five, four,” He gun was now raised to my head and I kept my hands behind my back. He was practically right up against me, with his gun pressing into my skull. “Three, two, one.” The door slammed opened and in stumbled Zechs, he had a gun of his own and he had pointed it at Treize the second he spotted him.

“Put the gun down now, Treize.”

“I really don’t think you are in a position in which you can order me around, Zechs. Now this is what we’re going to do, so listen, ooph.” While he was busy talking with Zechs, I brought my arm around and grabbed his gun as I threw my elbow against the left side of his face. He stumbled back a few paces. I turned the gun around in my hand and pointed it at him. The game was over, and he knew it. My thoughts were confirmed with his next statement.

“Now, now, I wouldn’t do something crazy such as killing me if I were you, I sure you have a ton of questions floating around in your head that we both know only I have the answers to.” He said to me.

“But did you not just tell me a few minutes ago that Heero knows things as well.”

“And you have yet to give me a reason why I shouldn’t kill you.” Zechs added. Treize just frowned and I briefly wondered if he really thought he could talk his way out of this. It was probably the only way he knew how to fight.

“Well, if that’s the way you both feel.” His hand was already leaving his pocket by the time I noticed any movement. He threw something to the floor and there was a loud popping noise. The room filled with smoke quickly. I heard a gun fire to my right and I instinctively, followed suit. Next, I heard the sound of breaking glass. Of course by then I couldn’t see a thing. I ducked low to the ground, below the smoke, and took my first gasps of cleaner air. I saw to my right Zechs doing the same. He saw me and smiled. I smiled back. He then motioned for me to follow him. Because of the now open window the smoke was quickly dissipating. By the time we were safely outside, and standing in the hallway, the room was practically clear again. I saw the broken window on the far side of the room and noticed that I could see the ground, which told me I was on the first floor.


Duo’s view

“What took you so long?” Heero asked as soon as I was standing next to him in front of his bedroom door. We quickly started walking towards the main stairwell.

“I gathered up some of the other guy’s things as well, ya know, seeing on how they are all still missing!” Heero just spared me a quick glance at we reached the stairwell.

As we were pretty much running down the main staircase, Pinky Winky herself, decided to come into view at the bottom of the stairs.

“Relena, go get your uncle and anyone else you see and tell them to get out of here, now.”

“What, Why?” We had to stop. Well, Heero stopped on the stairs, I tried to keep going but he held his arm out and stopped me.

“Just do as I say, go gather your uncle and get yourselves out of here now.”

“No, not until you tell me why.”

“Because this place could blow at any minute, you idiot, now go and do what Heero says!” Heero glared at me out of the corner of his eyes, I would have glared back, but I focused my attention on Relena, who was running up the stairs. Heero followed my gaze just in time to brace himself as Relena wrapped her arms around his waist. She pulled back just as quickly as she had hugged him.

“I’m sorry for that, I just...”

“Forget it, just go on now.” Heero said, rather too calmly.

“I’m coming with you.”

“Like hell you are.” Says I.

“What about your uncle?” Says Heero.

“Then wait for me.” Says Relena.

“We don’t have time to wait for you.” Says I.

“Then I coming with you now.” She said to Heero even though I was the one currently talking to her.

“Fine then lets go.” Heero said.

“What?” I really didn’t like that idea, I mean I thought we would most likely grab a couple of the bikes from the garage and if she comes she’s gonna need/WANT to ride with Heero. Yeah she definitely can’t come.

“I said lets go!” Heero made to grab me but quickly lowered his arm as I saw pain dance across his eyes for the briefest moment. I wanted to help him but I knew he would refuse; that he didn’t want to make a scene in front of Winky. And with at the THREE of us ran the rest of the way down the stairs and out the door.

Once we were outside Heero started running down the driveway and I veered towards the garage. We both stopped after a couple of paces.

“Where are you going?” He asked.

“Garage.”

“We’ll use the mail truck.”

“Oh my God, look.” Relena said, she pointed to something that was to behind me and to the left. The something turned out to be a someone. Trowa in fact, and he was shimmying his way down a drain pipe and Quatre was hanging his head out of a window above him. I quickly ran over to them and I could hear two other pairs of feet behind me doing the same. I got there just as Trowa landed on the ground.

“Trowa, we have to get out of here, have you seen Wufei?” He was looking up, watching as Quatre made his way down the pipe.

“I know, and no, I haven’t seen him.” Heero and Relena had now joined us by the wall. I wanted to say something along the lines of ‘see, I was right we should have stayed and looked for the guys’ to Heero, but a door burst open at that moment revealing Wu-cheese and some guy with really long hair who’s name at that very moment... I didn’t know.

“There he is.” Trowa said, as he helped Quatre get down from the pipe.

“Great, we’re all here, now lets move out.” Said Heero.

“Why do we have to leave?” Asked Quatre even though he and Trowa were following Heero down the drive like the rest of us.

“Freeze!” I stopped as everyone else did.

BANG
A shot came at us and I saw Fei Wu, the blonde guy, and Heero all firing back in the same direction. It was then that I saw a guy with short brown hair a few yards away. He was on one of the bikes (no helmet) and was shooting at us as he drove away. Someone’s shot (most likely Heero’s) hit him in the arm, but he kept on riding away through the gap in the fence that Heero had made earlier and down the street.

“What was that about, wasn’t that, that Treize guy?” Quatre asked.

“I’ll explain everything later but we need to go, now.” At this point I could tell that Heero was just plain agitated. He really wanted us to get out of here soon. I wonder if that guy had told him when this place was gonna blow.

“Yes, it would be about time that you finally clued the rest of us in, Yuy.” Wuffle said, and he was looking none to kindly at Heero as he said it. Heero just stared back at him for a couple of minutes before turning and continuing he way down the driveway.

It wasn’t until we were driving away in the mail truck did anyone even dare to speak again.

“Heero, what the hell is going on?” Though we all wanted to know, Quatre was the one who asked.

“I’ll explain all that I know when we are safe back at headquarters.”

“Heero, why didn’t you tell us earlier?” This was Wu wu, he seemed less angry when he asked this. He was sitting right across from Heero. Due to his arm, he had let Quatre be the one to drive the mail truck. Quatre was also the only other person besides Heero that knew where the airport was. Trowa was sitting next to him up front. Which left me, Heero, Relena, in that order, on one said of the truck and Blackie the Wu and Blondie on the other. I would also like to note that Heero was leaning on me the entire time.

“After I found out, I came here, passed out, woke up, told Duo we were leaving, and found the rest of you in the process of doing that. When would you have liked me to have told you, and further more, what do you know?” Heero said/asked. Wu wu looked kind of guilty for a bit, before he went back to being straight faced. Of course this was the time my mind chose to remind me of the little bathroom incident between the WU and myself. I was glad that his attention was on Heero for the moment but Blondie was staring at me as my face turned red and that was almost more embarrassing.

“Sorry, that Treize guy had said that you’ve known for a while and...,”

“And you believed him.” Wu-dog just nodded, and for now the subject was dropped. Though I didn’t want it to end seeing as how I still didn’t know what was going on. Heero found out something juicy while out on that crazy mission but when did Wu wu find out, what did he find out, when, where, how? It was all to much! Plus I really needed to get the image of FE FI FO’s hands on me out of my head!

“So who the fuck are you if you don’t mind my asking?” Heero stared at my red face as I asked Blondie this. Wu - goat was glaring, he obviously didn’t approve of my choice of wording.

“I don’t mind, my name is Zechs Merquise .”

“So Zechy, are you Fei fei’s new fuck buddy?” While trying to get my mind out of the gutter I had accidentally mutter a phase that seemed to have come straight from it. I saw Heero’s eyes widen from the corner of mine, I saw Wufei’s narrow, Trowa turned around in his seat, and I heard Relena gasp.

“Not at all, though I’d like to be. And how about you and him,” He pointed to me, then to Heero, “are you to an item, if you don’t mind my asking?” It was Fefers time to turn a bit red. Oh this guy was good I’ll give him that, a real smooth talker this one.

“Yes, we are.” That was Heero. THAT WAS HEERO! He said that. I didn’t. He did.

“That’s great you guys!” That was a happy Quatre up at the wheel. On my way to looking over at Quat I caught Wu man’s stare. He was remembering the bathroom incident too, I could tell. I saw him make a quick glance to Heero and his face went from red to pale. I looked at Heero and saw he was looking from Wufei to me. My face was burning red now. Heero and I stared at each other for the longest moment. The redder my face got the more narrow his eyes got. I couldn’t take it anymore so I chose to stare at the ground for the rest of the trip while I felt his and well as the Pervert a.k.a. WU’s gaze on me every once and a while.

Fortunately know one said a word until we got to the airport. Unfortunately, I sat next to Heero on the plane and he didn’t look like he wanted to stay silent any longer.
