AN: I’m, very very very sorry to those who might have read A glimps behind the mask.
That is the second chapter and I realized last night that I failed to post the first chapter. So anyway please read this chapter if you want to know how Heero and Duo get together.
Sorry.


To Meet again.

Not a sound could be heard as Quatra, Trowa, Wufie and Zechs slowly made their way to the Preventers vehicle that would carry their friend to his final resting place. Gently they palced the casket in the back of the truck. Quatra and Trowa took up positions behind the truck with Wufie an Zechs folowing close behind. As the solem goup marched past the crowd, the rest of the Preventers joined the grieving soldiers, silently following them to the cemetary.

As the funeral progressed no one noticed the lone figure standing in the shadows a short distance away.
How could I have let this happen?
Watching as Heero was lowered into the cold ground, Duo couldn't help but remember why the innocent, caring teen was forever lost to the world.

-----------------------------------In the Past---------------------------

Everything became more complicated, more confusing since the wars ended. He no longer had anyone giving him orders to complete a mission. No, now he expected to live in a time of peace that he never thought he would be apart of. I t had been believed that the Gundam Pilots would all parish during battle, they never truly believed that they would live to see peace.Living in peace didn't seem to be to hard for the others, since they had all lived in a timje of peace during the first few years of their lives. Quatra had his family and Rashid to live with. Duo had known what it felt like to have other love and care about him, and Wufie had known peace within his colony before the wars. All except him. He was raised and trained to be a weapon. Thats all, kill and destroy for the sake of others. Never give an idication of what he felt or believed because it could be used against him.
But then there was Duo, the loud mouthed American, who had turned out to be a reliable companion. His personality itself was kind, but strong willed. He was willing to do whatever it took to gain peace and in doing so revenge for family lost. That side of the braided baka he could understand but what confused him was that Duo didn't hide whatever he felt.. Often during theb war Duo would try and reach out to him, trying to reach the 'person' behind the 'soldier'. Now that there was peace and the Perfect Soldier was nolonger needed he was lost. Everyone else had gone off to find their own place in the world, Quatra and Trowa went with family, Wufie went with Sally to work at the Preventers, and Duo had gone back to L2 to work with Hild. With nowhere to go, Heero was now on earth, currently living in a rundown apartment without a job, And because he withdrew form the others, completly alone.

*************************************

The streets were crowded, everyone pushing and shoving, each person trying to get to their own seperate destinations.
What is with everyone? You'd think that in this heat that they would want to be inside were there was airconditioning.
Duo Maxwell had decided to g to Earth for a litle visit, since the only time he'd actually been there was when he was needed to complete a mission. However he hadn't been planing on having to push his way through a tone of people just to get to a coffee shop.

Heero sat in a secluded corner in the quiet coffee shop, unaware of a certain violet eyed teen entering the shop. The coffee shop was practicly empty, except for a dark haired teen in one corner and a small group of people sitting near the entrence. Walking up to the counter Duo smiled at the waitress, while he ordered his coffee with cream and sugar.

Heero's head snapped up at the sound of a very fomiliar voice.
It can't be.

The feeling of being watched caused Duo to search the shop to find who was watching him. Then hiw eyes fell upon a figure immersed in the shadows. A familiar slim body with messy brown hair and deep cobalt eyes stared back.
"H-Heero?"
All Heero could do was stare at the one person he most desperatly wanted to forget. After getting his coffee Duo went to sit down with a silent Heero.
"So.....Heero how have you been?"
"Fine"
Rolling his eyes Duo chuckled.
"Still not one to talk are you?"
"Hn"
They finished their coffee in silence, unsure of what should be said.
Standing up, Duo looked at Heero.
"Lets go for a walk"
Nodding his head, Heero stood up to follow the former gundam pilot. Leaving the shop, the two headed in the direction of the harbour.
"So do you want to tell me why you've disapeared for the last six months? Or why you haven't contacted any of use since the end of the war?
"No"
"Common Heero, quit the act. Why won't you talk with use?"
"I thought it best to leave."
"Why? So you could suffer alone, without the companionship of those who understand what you went through.
Why is he so concerned about what I do? I never acknowladged his attempts at friendship, so why is he still trying to reach out to me?

Seeing the tenseness of Heero's shoulders Duo decided to let the subject go. For now.
"Say Heero? Would you mind if I stayed with you tinight?"
"Why?":
"Because I havn't seen you in months and I want to visit"
"Hn"
"I'll take that as a yes."
--------------------------------later that night--------------------

"How long do you plan on staying?"
Duo was sprawled on the small couch in the living room, looking as if he'd lived in the apartment all along.
"I don't know. I was planning on staying on Earth for at least a week. I could always find a hotel or something if I can't stay here."
"Hn"
Leaving the room, Heero cast a quick glance at Duo. Why did he have to show up? Why now, when I've finally resigned myself to living an empty life. Heero returned shortly after, carrying a few blankets and a pillow.
"Here"
"Thanks Hee-chan"
As he was turning to leave, Heero was surprised to feel strong hands grab his shoulders as Duo pilled him into a short hug, before heading back to the couch for the night.
"Night"
Heero went into his bedroom, getting ready for bed in a daze.


The next morning was up around 7:30, he wasn't to surprised to see that Duo was still fast asleep.
Turning on the coffee pot, Heero sat at the table, watching as Duo slept on, unaware of the others interest.

Duo woke to the feeling of being watched, turning his head slightly his eyes fell on the still figure of Heero. Their eyes met for a brief second before Heero looked away.
"Morning Heero"
"Hn"

Getting up headed towards Heero.
"Ya got any coffee for me?"
Sitting down Duo took a small sip of coffee out of the mug Heero placed before him, before speaking.
"So..Heero what are you doing today? Anything in particular or are you willing to show me around a bit?"
"....."
"Well. Will you?"
" I don't have anything else planned."
----------------------------------------

The pizza place was at the ef the harbour, so the two teens decided to get a slice of pizza as they went for a walk.
As the two sat together on a bench, by the water, Duo noticed that Heero kept glancing at him when he thought that the braided teen wasn't looking.
"Hey Hee-chan, What’s wrong?"
Heero cast another quick glance at the teen sitting beside him.I can't tell him, not now.
"Nothing"
Putting aside his pop, Duo reached a hand out and grabbed one of Heero's.
"Common Heero. I know somethings bothering you, has been bothering you since last night."
Heero felt his heart falter and his pulse quicken, when Duo took ahold of his hand.
Ignor it, you're not supposed to feel, it will go away, he doesn't need to know.
Staying silent, Heero sat as still as possible, looking everyware but at Duo. They sat in silence for a while, until Duo got impatiant and grabbed Heeros chin, forcing the startled teen to look him in the eyes.
"Tell Me."
I can't. What if he hates me, What if....
Seeing the fear in Heeros eyes, Duo softened his tone.
"You know you can tell me Heero."
"I-I think I love "
Heero said softly, almost in audibally. Sighing Duo pulled Heero into a brief hug before pulling awayto look into Heero's anxious blue eyes.
"Heero, there is no need to hide how you feel, you don't know how long I've waited to hear you say that. I love you too."
Hope flashed in Heero's eyes before he spoke.
"you Do?"
"Yes Heero."
Duo leaned forward and kissed Heero lightly on the lips. Heero relaxed, allowing the kiss to deepen.
I can trust him, beleive him. After all he never lies.

******************************************************

Well I finally got the second chapter up. Hope you all enjoyed. This story is harder to write then the last one, pluse it doesn't help that I'm in the proccess of writing another fic at the same time. You would think that with Heero being my favorite character I would be nice to him, but no I have to go and start another fic were he suffers. but I can't complain I'm a sucker for angst.
Well that all for now. Please feel free to let me know what you think.
