Author's Notes: I realize that in the last chapter I stated that my writer's block was gone, but sadly I was mistaken. However, happy news, I figured out that it wasn't writer's block, just lack of concentration. So I did what I should have done in the first place, which was write down notes for each of the upcoming chapters and everything is moving along much more smoothly. So next week (maybe before Christmas, but probably after) the next chapter will be done. I can state at this moment that there will definitely be more than 20 chapters, but probably not anymore than 30. So we're getting closer! ^_^

Heero and Duo walked hand-in-hand into Duo’s house after dinner. Heero was going to show Duo all of his journals. He wasn’t sure if it was a good idea, but he was still going to show him. “Wait in the living room. I’ll be right back.”
“Okay.” Duo grinned and left Heero’s side. Heero climbed the stairs two at a time, anxious to see his love’s reaction to the writings and drawings. When he entered his room, he was greeted by a grinning Trowa.
“I see you’re in better spirits.” Trowa was perched upon the window sill.
Heero smiled slightly and then began to gather the journals. “I’m going to show these to him.”
“In other words, you’re asking whether I think this is a good idea, or a bad idea ... right?” Heero gazed up at Trowa, and frowned. “Yes, I think the more we can push him to try and remember -- the safer the two of you will be.”
Heero began to walk out of the room, when the meaning of what Trowa had just said hit him. “What do you mean by safer?”
“I mean that the person who ordered Duo’s death is still out there ... and as of yet unknown to us. The police and the military are searching ... including the underground society which Duo was a part of. But not one person has found any evidence linking it to one specific person.”
“I see. I’ll be on guard then.” So, the reason Trowa had invented the order to have Heero watch over Duo was to protect Duo. Heero smirked and thanked Trowa quietly.
“What was that for?”
“Nothing.” Heero left Trowa and returned to Duo with his arms filled with the journals.
“What are these?” Duo began to help Heero unload his burden.
After all the journals were placed on the small coffee table, Heero sat in the floor. “These are your journals. From when you were a shinigami.”
“Huh?” Duo began to flip through some of the books which were at the top of the stacks.
“After we left the Rukongai, you began to draw and write in journals. They chronicle your life in Soul Society.” Heero watched Duo’s face carefully for a reaction, but none came. Duo sat quietly and rummaged through the books until he found the earliest dated one. With a blank expression, Duo began to read the journal. That whole night, the boys sat in silence, while Duo read every page, and examined every drawing.
“They do look like my work ... and this is my handwriting. But I don’t quite understand the last few books. They’re odd.”
Heero stirred himself when Duo spoke. He had dozed off, and found himself leaning against Duo’s shoulder. He sat up straight and looked through one of the journals which Duo had handed him. He was right, the entries were odd, as were some of the drawings. “It’s almost like a code.”
“Yeah, that’s what I thought too. Wonder what I was trying to say.” Duo rubbed his eyes and stretched. “Well, I’m tired. How about you?”
“You don’t want to talk about this?” Heero was surprised that Duo was being so laid back about the journals.
“Heero, I just read through what is supposedly the chronicles of my previous life as a shinigami. I need sleep now. My brain feels like mush and frankly I think that I’m going insane.” Duo stood and began to walk out of the room.
“Duo, I’m sorry -- I guess I shouldn’t have shown these to you.” Heero stared down at his hands which were clasped together in his lap. His inner voice had warned him about showing the journals to Duo, but he had refused to listen.
“Heero ...” Duo sighed and walked back over to Heero. He sat down next to him and wrapped Heero up in a tight embrace. There faces were inches from each other and Heero could hear his heart thumping within his chest. “I feel like I just landed in the twilight zone. This is all really hard for me to wrap my head around ... you know?” Duo leaned his head against Heero’s shoulder and took one of his hands into his own. “I need some time, but I will tell you one thing ... some of the things in those journals felt like a memory. A distant faded memory. If it is true, then I want to remember it all. But right now ... I just want to enjoy you. I don’t care about the past Heero.” Duo raised his head and gazed into Heero’s deep blue eyes. Heero swallowed hard and held his breath for the kiss that was sure to come. Duo’s face moved closer to Heero’s and their lips met in a simple and innocent kiss.
“Duo,” Heero began softly, his forehead resting gently against Duo’s. “Will you go out with me? -- On a date.”
Duo’s grin was brief, and was replaced by a playful pout. “I was wondering when you were going to make me an honest man. Seeing as how I--”
“Duo,” Heero raised an eyebrow in a warning gesture; since Duo wanted to play, he would play too.
“What? It’s true. My mouth’s been ashamed since that night. Seeing as how it was a virgin and all.” Heero couldn’t help but laugh at Duo’s performance.
“You should be an actor you know that?”
“Thanks for the compliment.” Duo stretched and yawned. “I’m ready for bed. How about you?”
“Thought you’d never ask.” Heero followed Duo upstairs and the two boys prepared for bed. They snuggled together under the covers as they quickly and quietly fell into a deep and peaceful sleep.
-----
Duo and Heero stood outside the gates to the adventure park, which had been Duo’s idea for their date. Heero wasn’t particularly looking forward to being slung around on fast rides and eating nothing but junk food; however, it was what Duo wanted so, that was the final decision. The park wasn’t very crowded, much to Heero’s delight, and the sky was clear with fluffy white clouds skittering across the blue plain. All in all it was a beautiful day, and Heero felt very happy and lucky to have Duo by his side.
Duo was holding Heero’s hand and dragging him to the first ride. “Heero, have you ever been on a roller coaster?”
“Um ... is that one?” Heero pointed nervously to the massive twisted metal contraption before him. Loud screams and laughter rushed by them as the coaster cars whisked past.
“Yup. It’s the smallest and shortest of the three they have here. I thought we could start out on this one, and then work our way up.” Duo was beaming at Heero, and there was no way that Heero could say no to those eyes.
“Okay.” Heero couldn’t believe that he was scared of the coaster. He had never been scared of anything ... ever, but now before this monster of a ride, Heero actually felt nervous about boarding it.
“Heero, you okay?” Duo asked as they moved up in the que. The next car would be theirs, and Heero was starting to feel more nervous than when they first got in line.
“I’m fine.” Heero said, steeling his determination to ride this contraption for Duo’s sake. The car pulled up and the gate opened to allow the next group of riders on. Heero took a deep breath as he crossed through the gate and sat in the car. The bars came down over their shoulders and locked in place. Duo had a bright smile on his face and looked completely at ease, but that was far from how Heero now felt. With sweaty palms, he grabbed onto the handles upon the safety restraint and held on for dear life as the train jerked into motion.
“Isn’t this fun?!” Duo asked as they were calmly riding up a short hill. So far the ride wasn’t so bad, but Heero had seen the drop that was on the other side of the hill they were now climbing. Just before the cart took the plunge over the crest, Heero could swear that he felt his stomach fly up through his body and join his brain. As the train jerked around a bend at the end of the drop and continued its crazed twisting and turning, Heero found himself relaxing and thoroughly enjoying the ride. In fact, he began to laugh as the ride continued, but it all came to a stop too soon for his liking.
“Can we go again?” Heero asked Duo as they climbed out of the car.
Duo laughed lightly and slung his arm around Heero’s shoulders. “Well there are two others, do you want to try them out before you decide which one you want to ride again?”
Heero’s smile was as bright as a child’s as he nodded in agreement. “I really liked it.”
“I can tell.” The two walked around the small park and rode the other coasters, and Heero’s favorite happened to be the one with the multiple loops in it. For a good part of the day, they rode that one coaster many times, until Duo finally put a stop to it. “Okay Heero, we need to do something else for a little while, or my food’s not going to stay down.”
“Well, let’s go eat.”
“Good idea.” Heero and Duo chose a little cafe style eatery and sat at the farthest table in the small eating area. “So that was your first time on a coaster?”
“Yeah. I had no idea that there were things like that here. Before we got on, I thought the prospect of being slung around and dropped in that manner wouldn’t be fun. I was wrong though.”
“I’m glad you’re enjoying yourself. I was afraid that you wouldn’t have fun here.” Duo picked at his teriyaki burger as he spoke.
Heero reassured him with a small smile. “I’d enjoy myself anywhere as long as I’m with you.”
“Heero ...” Duo breathed a bit unevenly. Heero could tell that his simple remark had stirred strong emotions inside Duo, and he was happy that the object of his affections felt as strongly for him as he did for Duo. “I love you too,” Duo whispered.
The last ride the two went on before heading to the train station, was the ferris wheel. They snuggled as the wheel slowly turned and their seats climbed to the top. “I had fun today, Duo.”
“So did I. What’re we going to do on our next date?” Duo nuzzled Heero’s neck eliciting a stirring within Heero’s groin.
“Duo ... unless you want me to rip off your clothes right now, stop nibbling that spot.”
“Hmph.” Duo rested his head against Heero’s shoulder and stared out at the city. “I wouldn’t mind that you know.”
“I think you would when we got arrested.” Heero chuckled lightly, hoping that Duo realized that he wasn’t being completely serious. He did want Duo to nibble on him and kiss him, but after today, he knew that he was ready to make love to the man beside him.
“You’re right. So, next date?”
“Hmm ... how about your bedroom?”
“How forward.” Duo teased with a smirk. “I don’t think anyone’s ever propositioned me before. You’re the first.”
“Well, are you going to accept it or not?”
“Hmm ... it depends.” Duo had a devilish gleam in his eyes and Heero wondered what he was up to.
“If you’re a good boy or not.” Duo snickered and ran on ahead of Heero once they exited the ferris wheel. Heero jogged to catch up with him, and once he did their hands twined together.
They walked hand in hand to the train station to board the commuter back to their township. While, on the train, Duo rambled softly about school and other things; Heero just sat and listened to the sound of his voice. Once at their stop, they exited and found WuFei waiting for them.
“I was wondering when you were going to get home.” WuFei stood from the bench which sat against the station wall.
“WuFei? Why are you here?” Duo asked, confusion obvious on his expressive face.
“I came to stake my claim.”
“On what?” Heero asked suspiciously. He had never fully trusted WuFei, yet he knew that Duo had no feelings for the man. So why was it that the nape of his neck was now prickling as he awaited WuFei’s answer?
“Duo.”
“HUH?!” Duo looked from WuFei to Heero, completely bewildered by this proclamation.
“I love you Duo. And I will not rest until your heart is mine.” WuFei walked closer to Duo, but Heero cut him off.
“WuFei, Duo is only a friend to you. He’s my boyfriend. Not yours. So go back home and sober up.”
“I’m not drunk, Yuy. Just in love, and I know that I can love him better than you ever can. I can treat him better than you ever can. So therefor, it makes sense that I proclaim my undying love for him.”
“Hey! Don’t I get a say in this?” Duo peeked around Heero, who glanced at his face. There was panic and shock in Duo’s eyes, and Heero knew that he was as lost as he was.
“Duo, please, just give me a chance,” WuFei pleaded. “I’m standing here with my heart on my sleeve, and I want you to know that I’m all yours.”
“WuFei ... I -- um ... I dunno. I love Heero.” WuFei’s face faltered slightly, but quickly regained its composure. Heero glared at him. “But I love you too ... Just as a friend.”
“Be that as it may, I still love you, Duo Maxwell. And I will win your heart.” WuFei glared at Heero before saying one last thing. “And that, Yuy, is a promise.” He then turned and left the two boys staring after him, completely confused.
“Sometimes I just don’t get him.” Duo mumbled.
“I think he prefers it that way. Let’s go home.” Heero gently took Duo’s hand in his and the two walked home in silence.
Legal stuf ... Bleach and Gundam Wing don't belong to me, they belong to Kubo Tite, Hajime Yadate and Yoshiyuki Tomino respectively.
