<p>Duo sighed as he walked down to Hilde's office. He hadn't been sleeping well, his dreams were filled with intense blue eyes and messy brown hair. He was swiftly becoming obsessed with the guy but he knew he shouldn't be. On top of it all he hadn't seen Blue eyes, his nickname for him, all week. Not after the attempted apology.
<p>All week he kept thinking that he shouldn't have been so mean about the apology but he couldn't help but feel hurt that the guy wasn't sorry about being rude to him. He shook his head trying to get the thoughts out of his head. He heard some coughing coming from Hilde's office and he hurried inside.
"Hil?"
"Oh, hi Duo." Said Hilde as she looked up at him. She was sitting in her chair with a tissue held up to her nose. She blew into it and Duo winced at the sound.
"You look like hell."
Hilde glared at him, "Thanks for pointing that out to me."
Duo shrugged but made sure to keep his distance. He couldn't afford to get sick.
Hilde looked up at him, "Duo can I ask you a huge favor?"
"Depends on what it is."
"Could you go to this meeting with me. I finally got an appointment with one of the richest businessmen in town and it's today. But I'm too sick to go and if I don't show up the orphanage will be overrun and…"
"Hil calm down. I'll go for you."
"Oh you will. Thanks Duo. You are a lifesaver."
Hilde got up to hug Duo but Duo moved away. Hilde smiled at him then went out the door, "Follow me and we'll get you a suit."
Hilde took him to a closet where she went in and came back out with a nice black suit. Duo looked at her in question and she smiled sadly.
"It used to belong to my brother before he died. You are about his size. It should fit."
"I'm sorry, Hil."
"Don't be. It was a long time ago. Now go try this on."
Duo took the suit into the bathroom and put it on. It was a little snug in the shoulders but overall it looked pretty good on him. He smiled and walked out of the bathroom to show Hilde, "So how do I look?"
"You look splendid." Hilde looked him up and down and gasped at his shoes, "I forgot the shoes. Be right back."
Duo stood there for a second while Hilde raced down the hall. She finally came back with nice black shoes and handed them to Duo, "Here try these on."
Duo took off his beaten, muddy shoes and put on the nice black ones. They were a bit big but not bad.
"You look great."
"Thanks Hil. Now when's this appointment?"
"At three, which gives me about an hour to tell you everything you'll need to know to get the funding and call to inform them of the change."
"I hope this works." Duo said as he followed Hilde back to her office.
