Warnings: 1x2, 3+4?, AU, cute little boys, fluff, and my bad language

Author's Notes: This story sucks and it has not been betaed or however you spell that. >_< And also, there's like flashbacks but they're not marked because...I want to make you guys think! ^_~ But I'm sure you'll be able to tell where they are! :D

I also REVISED this because it had too much sarcasm in it! I didn't like it! Now it's more, how do you say, like a story than just me talking. No sick humor now! Just only a minute amount, because the sarcasm didn't fit too well. And some I just couldn't even take out because I didn't know what else to do! So here you go!

THE NEW AND IMPROVED CUTE BEGINNINGS!

He was one cute little boy. He had rose-colored chubby cheeks and had long chestnut brown hair that glittered when light hit it at the right angle. He had innocent violet irises that would always laugh when he was playing outside with his friend...

His first best friend.

He could still remember the day when he first met the boy who would be his future best friend--and desire. The boy was just a few months older and slightly taller. He was taciturn and never really liked to express what he was feeling. Despite such differences, the slightly older boy meant a lot to the violet-eyed...

"Duo, what are you writing?" Heero asked, breaking Duo's concentration. Duo quickly covered up his log and shoved it in a drawer connected to the desk.

"N-nothing..." Duo sputtered innocently. He batted his eyelashes playfully at Heero. He then turned around to look outside the window that was adjacent to the desk. I'm just writing about our lives when we were younger, Duo thoughtfully clarified in his mind. Just wanted to remember how great it was to spend all day with you...

The thoughtful look on Duo's face was quickly replaced by a radiant smile as he turned to watch Heero set his school books down on his desk.

"Duo, are you going to study or what?" Heero asked briskly.

Duo positioned his whole body to face Heero directly on the chair he was sitting on. He looked straight at Heero and said, "How about later?" and unenthusiastically waved him off. The only reply Duo got from Heero was a snort of disapproval. After a long gaze at Heero, Duo turned to look out the window again and thought about his first encounter with the boy sitting in his room.

"Duo, why don't you go over to that new boy's house and welcome him to our neighborhood?" Helen asked in a kind womanly manner. She was a very pretty woman, about in her early thirties but yet still had a beautiful striking look of youth to her. She had long golden brown hair and kept it out of her eyes with a headband.

The boy in question came and bounced up to his mother and wrapped his small, chubby arms around her legs. He looked up at her and said, "Oooh, can I, Mom?" Helen reached down and patted Duo's chestnut brown head.

"Of course you may, Duo," she replied. She gently took Duo's hands in her own and led him to the doorway. "Now Duo, I want you to be very nice to this boy and don't make fun of him or else I won't-"

She was cut off by a wide-eyed Duo who said, "Or else you won't, what?"

"Or else you won't be able to get that chocolate bar I was going to get you," she quickly replied. "Now shoo, out the door you go! Befriend the boy and you'll get a King-Sized Crunch Bar and maybe you could invite him over and share it with him!" Helen suggested. She was answered by a loud "Yippeee!" and blinked a couple times after the door opened and simultaneously closed in a loud "BANG!" and "Whoooshhh!" Well, there goes my day, she thought. And with that, she sighed.

^_^_^_^_^_^_^_^_^_^_^_^_^_^

Duo skipped towards the new boy's house and many bejumbled thoughts ran through his mind at 1,000,000,000 miles per hour. See, because those thoughts ran at such a high speed, I calculated that not only were those thoughts moving faster than the speed of light, but also I would only be able to catch only a HANDFUL of them, and here are some of them.

What's his name? Will he like me? I wonder what's his favorite color... Maybe he likes chocolate? 'Cause I like chocolate...no, I LOVE chocolate... What if he doesn't like me... Oh well... But then I'd be pretty sad...

OK! I think that's a little TOO many thoughts but I'm sure you get the gist of...

But if he doesn't like me, then I'll start to cry? But I could try to make it up to him, right?

OK, killer! Now stop thinking for a moment before you kill yourself. The thoughts ran through his mind and he was quickly approaching the new boy's house.

The new boy's house was only four houses down the same side of the road from Duo's house. The house was made with white bricks[1] and had large, streak-free windows. It was a pretty large house too but this neighborhood was home to many Earlpool[2] employees so that was to be expected. Duo was now walking up the front steps of the house. He stopped in front of the door and was about to ring the doorbell when a voice suddenly boomed out of nowhere and scared him. The voice was of a commanding type and said, "State your name." Duo was now crouched on the front step and shielded his face from whatever horrible thing was to come.

"I-I-I'm D-Duo Maxwell, s-s-sir..." Duo answered shakily.

"State your position." the Voice commanded.

"I d-don't know what p-posi-pion means..." Duo frightfully admitted. I want to go home, Duo thought. What is going to happen to me?! Then suddenly, there was a static noise and the door flew open to reveal an Asian woman with a steely-blue eyed boy in hand.

"How many times have I told you to stop doing that, Heero?" the Asian woman admonished. "And especially to young boys that are like you!" The young boy didn't seem fazed one bit from the tone but Duo was now staring frightfully at the scene and wanted to get away but the boy's icy blue eyes were pinned on him and only him. "Now apologize!" the woman commanded. A small "Ninmu ryoukai" escaped from the lips of the blue-eyed boy and he quickly, but grudgingly, walked up to the boy crouched on the step.

"I'm sorry-" A quick "I'm sorry" was all that was needed to make Duo bounce back to life and he quickly hugged the Asian boy. The Asian boy started to squirm against the strong embrace and turned to glare at his mother. The woman just smiled sheepishly, shrugged, and then backed away. Great, Heero thought.

"Hi, I'm Duo Maxwell! You're new here so I figured that I should come over and say "HI!" to you and maybe we could become friends! I know we met at a bad start but I'm sure we'll be BEST friends now!" Duo started, which ended up being a never-ending rant. Whoopdy dooo...

"Shut up," Heero said. The ranting continued on and on, and it seemed like Duo didn't even hear what Heero said. Heero tried again, "Shut. Up." The animated boy kept on going and going, maybe he was the second, second cousin of the Benergizer Bunny[3] or something... Heero had enough of the long line of rants and just snapped. "SHUT UP!" Nope, didn't do a thing... Heero settled with a sigh... *sighs*

-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-_-

[1] ...house was made with white bricks... - Some people thought I was lying when I said that my house was made out of white bricks, well, I wasn't.

[2] ...Earlpool... - I'm sure you guys know what real company I'm spinning off of... ^_~

[3] ...Benergizer Bunny... - Yep, again with the spin-off.

That was bad...uhh...review or something? Who knows...

I don't know if I will be writing more, it depends if I like it tomorrow or something. I wrote this in an hour! >_< I'm such a slow writer. And I really don't like how it turned out either. Just like my other fic! -_-;;; Email me what you think or something.
