An American Classic

Duo brushed his chestnut hair into a braid. At the moment, everything was annoying him. He had a terrible headache from the mission the night before, and wanted more than anything to go to sleep. He made his way slowly through the small apartment, desperate for his morning coffee. He had an annoying song stuck in his head, and needed Advil for all the bruises he had. 'Too much.' were the words running through his head. Too much was right. He had been on his computer all night, discussing with Heero the plans for the mission. At three o' clock, he had left to complete the mission.

So you're standing on a ledge
And it looks like you might fall
So far down
Or maybe you were thinking about jumping

His headache slowly subsided as he noticed the gun Heero had left with him. "'Keep it in case of an emergency." The Japanese boy had said. Now felt like an emergency, but Heero had meant an actual emergency. Duo carefully pulled on his shoes and headed out to return the gun to Heero.

Now, you could have it all
I you learned a little patience
For though I cannot fly
I am not content to crawl

He had puzzled himself with the beautiful cobalt blue eyes long enough. He tried over and over again to figure out why Heero's stare could freeze the American boy in his tracks. He would never understand the fright that boy had instilled in him. Although he longed for the other, he walked slowly to the apartment on the floor below. He gently knocked on the door, not expecting anyone to open it, just expecting a 'hn.' To his surprise, Heero opened the door without question. Heero smiled at the gun Duo held. He hadn't really expected Duo to bring it back, nor had he expected the boy to use it. He took the gleaming gun by the barrel and checked to make sure everything was alright.

So give me a little credit
Have in me a little faith
I want to be with you forever
If tomorrow's not too late

Heero had been patiently working on a map of the new OZ base. He worried Duo wouldn't accept this mission. He hated to give the braided boy anything that could kill a child, but had to this time. If Duo didn't accept, he'd have to ask Wufei. He once again allowed himself to be trapped in the deep violet eyes of his lover. At that moment he wished it would all end. The world seemed to float away as he stared at the gentle smile of a once innocent boy. He'd acted for so long like he hadn't noticed Duo changing. Not so much a physical change, an emotional change. He scowled at a bruise that had developed on Duo's arm.

But it's always too late when you've got nothing
So you say......
You should never let the sun set on tomorrow
Before the sun rises today

" Bruise?" Heero asked. Duo nodded quietly. His thoughts were on nothing in particular. Definitely not on the bruise. He stared into the darkness of Heero's small apartment. The thought of the thin, wiry Japanese boy made his chest clench with fear. Sure, they were more than friends, but Duo wasn't so sure about their shaky relationship....

I haven't written the sequel to this yet! I need your opinion. (for those of you who are very literal, I actually mean you specifically) Should the relationship of these two boys grow, or should something more mysterious happen? I need your opinion. I only need 7 replies to start the sequel!!
