______________________________________________________________ _________
Since Relena knew the little hiding places of her garden a little better than Heero and had the intuition of a woman that would show her the way to somebody in pain she led Heero around, almost precisely following the path Duo had taken. She found him pretty quickly, sitting on a bench of stone in front of the only flowers that grew in this maze-like English garden. He had pulled his knees up to his chest; arms wrapped tightly around his legs and looked more like a ball with a long braid than human.
Heero was about to storm over, to hold him close but Relena stopped him.
"That's woman's business. Let me handle it."
Heero looked at her surprised, almost flabbergasted.
"But Duo is no woman..."
Relena's eyes became very soft as she said, "I know. But I am and he's scared of me. Please, let me do my job here now," she almost pleaded. "You wait here until I give you a sign, okay?"
Heero raised an eyebrow and studied her a few moments with a not-so-sure expression on his face but then nodded curtly. She smiled warmly and then made her way over to the tense ball with the braid.
"Duo."
Looking up from his knees, Duo encountered soft ocean-blue eyes framed by sand-colored hair. His blue violet eyes narrowed as he growled, "What do you want?"
"I want to..." Relena started, but was interrupted by Duo again.
"Give me the final blow? Well, come on, do it!" He glared up at her. "Tell me to my face what sick kind of slut I am! Tell me that Heero is yours alone and that he only needed somebody to fuck!! I *know* you can do it!!!" He screamed on top of his lungs, tears of anger dripping freely over his already soaked cheeks.
Relena winced. If she had known that it would hurt the one that Heero loved so much she would never have laid a hand on him. Vowing to herself that she would never do it again, she did the first thing that came to her mind. In a whirl of hair and body she wrapped her arms around Duo, tears starting to well in her eyes as well.
"Oh Duo, I'm *so* sorry! Heero isn't mine, he's yours! I would *never* be able to take him away from you, he wouldn't let me! Everywhere he goes and everything he does, he's doing it for *you*!"
Duo's eyes widened in surprise when he found himself in Relena's tight embrace. He suddenly realized that he had hurt her pretty badly by accusing her of things she would never do and felt terribly sorry for saying such harsh words to her. He remembered his anger still, though.
"Then why did he have to kill my uncle? He himself said that he was my only *real* family. Why did he have to kill him?"
If it was even possible Relena's embrace around him tightened.
"You know Heero, probably better than I do. Would he really kill somebody cold-bloodedly?"
She closed her eyes and rubbed her cheek reassuring against his.
"He's such a kind person; all he really wants is peace." She opened her eyes and breathed in quickly to make a dramatic pause before she added silently, "Peace and you."
Duo sobbed one last time before he relaxed a little. He was surprised how calm he was as he answered her question.
"No, Heero wouldn't. He didn't... he gave everybody the opportunity to leave... but my uncle... he just sat there and... waited... for the flames to eat him up... He was so calm..." He looked up and loosened his grip around his knees.
"I *hate* seeing people die."
Relena noticed that he semmed more relaxed and let go of him to look him straight into the eyes.
"And this from the self-proclaimed `God of Death´? I think you will have to give up *this* occupation."
Duo's anger rose again.
/How does she *dare* to make fun of me when I'm already lying wounded on the ground?/
But then he noticed a twinkle in her eyes, telling him that she was only trying to cheer him up and he forced his lips into a grin.
"There! I *knew* you could do it!" she proclaimed, putting her hands on her hips triumphantly. "Now be a man and listen to what your sweetheart found out."
She waved to Heero who had watched the whole scene from afar.
He had seen how Duo slowly raised his head, how Relena had tensed, how she had whirled her arms around the surprised youth and how she had let go of him a few moments later.
And he saw Duo smile.
Suddenly he felt very relieved as Relena motioned for him to come over but agitated too.
He felt as if he was about to fight an OZ' MS Army with good old Wing as he approached the two longhaired people nervously. Duo glared at him through his tears, but it wasn't a deathly glare rather a hurt one that demanded a damned good explanation. Heero gazed back, trying not to look apologetically since he knew he had done nothing wrong.
"Relena, please leave us alone," he said without breaking eye contact with Duo. Relena nodded and held back all the comments that came to her mind. She wished she could have seen Duo's reaction to what Heero would tell him, but that was just her nosey nature. Making her exit from this stage, she left Duo and Heero alone.
Immediately the two males started to feel very uncomfortable.
"Duo, I..."
"I'm sorry!" Duo interrupted him, taking Heero by surprise.
"What?!"
"I said I'm sorry. For not trusting you. For my lack of faith in you ... In your love."
"Duo, that's totally off topic! I told you again and again that I love you with all my heart and I will do it again and again just as long as you want me to! But I think you should listen to what I have to say first!"
Duo looked even more hurt.
/He's going to break up with me./
One of his inner voices angrily hit him over the head just as he thought this.
/'He just told you he loves you! He is *not* going to break up!'/
Duo sighed inwardly and looked up at Heero who was still blocking the sunlight from him. Saying nothing, he just listened.
Staring down into those big, slightly hurt looking deep blue violet pools Heero was about to drown and almost forgot what he wanted to say.
"You... you were born on September the 13th, AC 180."
Now this took Duo totally off guard.
"WHAT?! How do you know that?" He asked in total astonishment. "Not even *I* know when I was born!"
"I have this information from somebody who witnessed your birth," Heero said, trying hard not to growl.
"Who?"
"A 'friend' of your mother."
Heero spat out the word 'friend' as if it was some kind of curse, a four-letter-word or something like that. He still couldn't bring up any sympathy for the woman that Une had talked to earlier.
"My... my mother..."
Duo's grip around his knees tightened again as he stared down. Heero winced, too, but he knew he had to do this, even if it hurt to see Duo as tense like this.
"New Years Eve, AC 179. Your mother Antoinette Secunda was already engaged to George de l'Amour, but at this party she met a man to whom she was attracted immediately. Well, one thing led to the other and the next morning came the shock of what she had done. She felt very ashamed and left before this man could wake up. She didn't even know his name."
He made a pause here, just to take a breath.
"A few months later she realized that she was pregnant. It didn't show at first but at the end of May she couldn't hide her growing belly anymore. So she told her fiancé that she would take a holiday at her best 'friend's' house. During the four months she stayed with there with that woman and her husband, she told her 'friend' everything about your conception, every day a little bit more until she gave birth. She stayed a few more weeks to recover from her pregnancy until she looked as thin as before. During those days it was she who fed you, who changed your diapers, who took care of you. She really loved you, Duo."
Duo had listened interested to what Heero had told him, surprised that the usually quiet youth could talk so much without feeling uncomfortable.
/If he wanted to he could make a good story teller.../
"But why didn't she take me with her then?"
While his face went hard, Heero's eyes became very soft.
"She was afraid and ashamed. She didn't know what her husband-to-be would do to an illegitimate child of his fiancée. She trusted her 'friend' as much as to ask her to take care of you as if you were her own son. Well, her husband was a kind person and liked you, but this *woman*," Heero spat out this word again. "She was jealous that you got all the attention and treated you badly whenever she could. As soon as you could walk on your own and talk a bit, I think it was when you were about two or three years old, she took you out on her own, brought you to another colony and abandoned you there to take care of yourself."
Duo's face was a mask of plain horror.
"How cruel..."
Heero nodded.
"This... snake... she threw you away like some cheap object, as if you were no living being and that even though your mother gave her money for you. Greedy bitch," hissed Heero, staring off to the distance.
Duo on the other hand, did not really feel offended by what his mother's friend had done to him anymore. Sure, he had to suffer a lot in his past but he was a hero now, wasn't he? He had helped to end that futile war that made so many innocent people suffer. He was sure there would still be this damned war going on if it weren't for him and Deathscythe. And he would have never met Solo, Father Maxwell, Sister Helen, Quatre, Trowa, Wufei and Heero.
Heero.
The one who had risked his life to save him even before he knew was in love with him and who would always think of others first, than of himself. He was always the first one ready to sacrifice his life if that would end the battle. He was the one who had promied Duo that he wouldn't die as long as Duo needed him.
Duo felt a big wave of love rush though him, washing all the pain and the grief he felt before away. He felt so high all of a sudden because he knew that he was happy and lucky because Heero's heart belonged to him. And his belonged to Heero. He felt as if the body he owned was just a small barrier that separated him from his real size, from embracing the world and pulling Heero to his heart.
But there was just one question that he still had.
"What's my name?"
"Huh?"
Heero who had sunken into his own thoughts during the silence that had followed his story of Duo's past, still not focusing on anything in particular, blinked and then focused his gaze at his longhaired Shinigami.
"The name... my mother gave me."
He had expected any other question, a fiery outburst or something else but not this simple request.
"Dano {1}... Dano Secunda."
"Dano..."
Duo looked thoughtful as he tried that name. It felt not bad but since he had lived most of his life as 'Duo Maxwell' and this name was own, reminding him of the most important people in his life, his best childhood friend Solo, whom he failed to save but who still watched over him every day and the Maxwell Church which was destroyed because he was not quick enough to get a Mobile Suit there, he somehow cherished that name. It reminded him of the happiest moments of his life as well as his worst mistakes.
"Which do you like better?"
Studying the longhaired youth for a few moments Heero thought for a bit.
"It's your choice, Duo... Dano."
The way Heero corrected himself as he said his name made the decision rather easy. He disentangled himself from his limbs, stretched and felt how stiff they had gotten during those few moments.
He stretched some more and went to stand mere inches in front of Heero, looking straight into Prussian blue eyes and smirked as his hands wrapped themselves around Heero's waist, one hand resting on his firm rear that was covered by smooth thin cloth. The other hand high on Heero's back, idly caressing shoulder blades as he pulled them closer until the only barrier between them were their bathing trunks.
"I think I'd be very irritated if you yelled Dano... people'd think you're cheating on me," whispered Duo and then tilted his head to kiss Heero's lips.
Heero closed his eyes as he wrapped his arms around Duo's shoulders and kissed back, bathing in the familiar taste of Duo's mouth, his unique smell that mixed with the odor of chlorine from the water in the pool and suntan lotion.
Yes, to him he would always be Duo Maxwell, one of the five names that were engraved in the books of history as those five brave pilots that fought selflessly for peace in the galaxy with the legendary Mobile Suits named Gundams.{2}
Reluctantly they broke the kiss and Duo laid his head on Heero's shoulder and sighed.
"You are so nice, I cannot believe the things you do for me," whispered Duo.
Heero smiled. "Me neither."
Nuzzling on the other's neck, Duo's hands wandered down Heero's back and eventually reached on Heero's trunks-covered ass. His half-closed eyes snapped open and he grinned.
"You know what? I think I'm still mad at Relena. How can she *dare* to buy you *such* disturbing clothes?"
Heero heard the grin in Shinigami's voice pretty well.
"I guess you will have to remove the obstacles then," he said as he felt how slim fingers sneaked under the waistband, the other hand snaking between them. "Duo, you are insatiable."
Hand wrapping around Heero's soft member, the person in question purred and said, "You asked for it."
Heero grunted as one of his hands caressed its way down over Duo's chest and underneath bat-covered black boxer shorts, just to find an already hardening piece of hot flesh. He whispered, "I love you, Duo Maxwell," and then nibbled on Duo's earlobe.
Leaning back as his hand tenderly massaged Heero's manhood Duo searched for Heero's lips and kissed them again.
"I know. I feel the same."
~z~
Meanwhile behind a bush you could see Relena, Dorothy and a fuming Wufei.
"What are they doing *now*?"
Relena wrinkled her nose.
"Miss Relena, don't act so naïve! You know *exactly what they are doing."
Relena giggled.
"You're right, Dorothy. Something inside me even wishes to be between them now."
"MISS RELENA!" said Dorothy and Wufei in unison.
"What?"
"Miss Relena, I just said, don't *act* so naïve, I never said you should tell everybody your secret fantasies!" reprimanded her Dorothy.
Wufei just mumbled something like "Onna" and looked demonstrative into another direction as the girls.
"Wai! Duo is rubbing his hips against Heero's hand!"
"Oh look, Heero is lifting Duo to his hips..."
"...and now he's carrying him into the house..."
Wufei's eyebrow twitched as he heard the big sigh of the two girls. He stood up abruptly and moved away from the pools of saliva.
"Wufei? Where are you going?"
Stopping in his tracks he growled, "I'm going to pack. I'm not needed here any longer!"
"But Wufei..."
He didn't hear what Dorothy said about revenge as he stomped into the house.
Inside his room, which was next to Heero's and Duo's he threw his clothes into his duffle back and dressed quickly.
He was about to storm out again as heard muffled screams that sounded suspiciously like the names of Yuy and Maxwell. He stood in the doorframe for a few seconds and sighed.
"First Barton and Winner... now Yuy and Maxwell... I wonder if saving the world makes you gay..."
He then walked out of the house without saying a word to anybody and headed back to the Preventer's headquarters.
He was almost happy that he would meet Sally Po there.
~z~
Back in the house, Duo snuggled closer to Heero's chest, feeling the other's seed inside him, a feeling that somehow made him whole.
"I think I like the name Duo Maxwell-Yuy best," were the last words he murmured before he fell asleep.
Brushing long bangs out of Duo's beautiful face, Heero smiled.
"As you wish."
