Gundam Wing Fan Fiction ❯ Gundam Day Care ❯ Chance at Love ( Chapter 20 )

Disclaimer: Please do not sue. I have no money. I spent it fixing my computer so I could write this fic. I do not own any of the gundam pilots. Don't even bother trying to sue.

Please do not steal any of my ideas. I worked long and hard on it.

Please read and review. It's the only way I can make this fic/series better. Want to post it somewhere? Be my guest. But please tell me where by emailing me.

Wufei caught Duo in the living room lazing on the battered old sofa.

`It's now or never.' He muttered before walking up Duo. Wufei woke up the sleepy youth.

"Duo do you think you can help me?"

Duo stopped and contemplated Wufei's question. There was something very wrong with that statement. Wufei had just called him Duo and not Maxwell?

"Uh…that really depends on what you want help with. I mean we're so different…"

Wufei let out a long sigh and did something, which was very out of character for him. He looked down at his feet and mumbled.

"It's about a girl, I think I like her and I've asked her out on a date. Duo…do you know any good restaurants that I can take her to?"

Duo's eyes bogged out of his head.

"CHANG WUFEI! YOU HAVE GOT TO BE KIDDING! AS IF I WOULD EVER REVEAL ANY OF MY DATING TIPS TO ANYONE…well maybe to my kids…BUT THE MAXWELL SECRET STAYS WITH ME AND ANYONE WHO TRIES TO PRY THAT INFORMATION OUT OF ME WILL BE IN FOR IT BIG TIME!!!"

"Not so loud please Maxwell. Somebody might hear you." Begged Wufei but it was too late for somewhere in the house Heero smirked.

Duo crossed his arms in front of his chest.

"Sorry Wuffie but no can do."

"Duo, I'm not asking you to give me your secrets. I'm only asking you for guidance."

Duo raised one eyebrow.

"Guidance eh? In that case I guess that its alright for me to help you out but first you'll have to tell me everything like her name…wait do I know this person? C'mon tell me everything about your situation and I will try to GUIDE you to the best of my ability."

And so this is how Wufei found himself sitting opposite Merian in the classiest and also the most expensive Italian restaurant of town. He tugged at the collar of his borrowed tuxedo and tried to remember a suitable starting line that he had learnt from reading a book Duo had given him.

"How are you enjoying your evening so far?"

Sensing Wufei's nervousness Merian laughed lightly hoping to ease the atmosphere.

"It's been great so far…but you do realize that we've spent no more than twenty minutes in here. Though I must admit the food is really good."

Wufei nodded and poured Merian and himself a glass of red wine. The two of them ate and chatted about current events and later about their past and the things that had led up to the present. As they ate Wufei felt himself falling in love all over again. However this was a different love he had experienced with his late wife. Wufei felt his heart being mushed up. He wanted to tell Merian how much he would like to spend the rest of his life with her. The feeling reminded Wufei of something that Duo had said about getting girls to fall in love with you.

Do something to melt their heart.

Right now Merian was melting his heart and this sudden turn of events confused Wufei. `This is not supposed to happen.' He told himself. `I am the one who is supposed to make her fall in love with me. Not the other way round. I am a damned weakling for not being able to tell her the truth. I am a damned weakling!'

He promised himself that things would be different on their next date.
