Heero stared at the boy in front of him, and felt himself grow warm all over. What the hell was wrong with him? He never approached people.. he never made any move to talk to anyone unless it was absolutely necessary.. but here he was in front of this gorgeous vision. The boy blinked at him in confusion, and Heero realized he had spoken in Japanese. Again. He had tried to get out of that habit, but he slipped up once in awhile.
"Um.. sorry, I didn't mean to startle you."
The boy eyed him warily and tugged at the leather jacket he was wearing. "Well you did.. and now I have no token." He grumbled.
Heero shrugged. "I just wanted to apologize for my friends back there, they can be real jerks."
The boy folded his arms over his chest and raised a eyebrow. "Well it's ok, I get that a lot. It's the price one pays for having long hair."
Heero stared at the boys hair. It was a honey brown color, with strands of chestnut, gold, and red. "It's.. nice." He said lamely.
The boy eyed him as if he was some kind of wierdo and nodded slowly. "Yeah.. well this has been fun but I have to be going."
"Wait!" Heero blurted out and grabbed his arm.
The boy automatically tensed. "Yes?" He asked, still eyeing him warily.
"Uh.." Heero faltered.
The boy looked vaguely amused.
"Do you want to hang out?" Heero finally asked.
The long-haired boy narrowed his eyes suspiciously. "Why do you want to hang out with me?"
"Er.. because I made you drop your token so I want to be nice?"
"..It's only a dollar fifty.. you could just buy me another one, and my brother always told me not to hang out with strangers." He said with a smirk.
Heero frowned. "Are you always this damn difficult? I'm trying to be nice here, I don't usually invite people to hang out with me you know."
"So I should feel special?"
"Yes." Heero snapped. "What's your name?"
Heero blinked and hesitated. "Heero."
"I'm Duo, now we're not strangers anymore." He said with a grin.
Heero snorted. "So do you want to hang out or what?"
"Sure why the hell not."

"Isn't this a gay club?" Duo asked as he took off his leather jacket and hung it behind his chair.
"No, anybody comes here. Gay or straight. Why do you have a problem with gay people?" Heero asked trying to seem casual.
Duo flushed. "No, I don't have a problem with gay people at all. One of my closest friends is gay."
"Aa." Heero eyed the boy with a small smile. He was glad that his eyes were partially hidden in the shadows of the mainly dark club. Duo couldn't see him staring now. The boy was really gorgeous, and he had the most amazing violet eyes. All he had to do was figure out what his preference was...
"What language were you speaking in before?"
Heero blinked at the unexpected question. "Japanese."
Duo smiled and leaned forward, squinting at him. "I've never seen a Japanese boy with blue eyes before."
Heero shrugged. "My father wasn't Japanese."
Duo nodded and moved his shoulders unconsciously to the driving beat of the music. "That's cool. So what school do you go to? How old are you? Tell me about yourself."
Heero frowned slightly. "There isn't much to tell. I don't go to school."
Duo tilted his head slightly. "Why not? What do you do then?"
//I'm in a gang and I steal stuff to get money... yeah that would go over real well with him Yuy.//
Heero hesitated again. "Well... I got expelled from my old school for fighting so I don't go anymore. I work and stuff now. Odd jobs... things like that.."
"You sound like my bro. He is a mechanic, maybe he can get you a job." Duo suggested with a smile.
Heero cleared his throat and looked away from that bewitching face. He was fighting a losing battle with his hormones, and at this rate he was going to drag the boy away and jump his bones. "Why are you trying to help someone you just met?"
"Well... I guess I just like helping people. And we're friends now right?"
"I suppose."
They sat in silence for awhile, just looking at each other. Heero was fascinated with the way the flashing lights brought out the highlights in his hair. "Uh.. so where did you score that fake ID? It looks really good."
Duo smirked. "My friend Quatre got it for me, I have no idea where he got it."
Heero nearly choked on his beer. "Quatre Winner?"
Duo nodded with a smirk. "Yep, you know him?"
"Uhh... not exactly. My friend Trowa knows him.." Heero stared down into his drink, praying that he didn't know Trowa. He didn't want this boy to know that he was the head of Oz, he wanted Duo to like him.
"Well that's cool. So do you wanna dance?"
Heero sighed in relief. "Sure."

"Hey isn't that Heero?"
Quatre squinted in the darkness and looked over to where Trowa was pointing, and saw the dark haired boy dancing with someone. "Yeah I think so."
Trowa leaned back against the wall. "Who's the kid with him?"
Quatre looked again just as the other boy came into view, and his jaw dropped. "That's Duo!"
Trowa raised a eyebrow. "Ah, we saw him earlier. I guess Heero likes him." He said with a smirk. He cast an appreciative glance in Duos direction. "I can see why."
Quatre remained silent. //This is so not good. If they find out who Duos brother is... and Duo finds out who Heero is... ah shit this is going to be bad.//
"Is there a problem Quatre?" Trowa asked as he began to guide him back into a dark corner. Quatre sighed and shook his head. "No, no problem at all." Then he leaned forward and kissed the taller boy.
//I'll worry about Duo later...//
