Disclaimer: Gundam Wing is not mine. ::sigh::: Though I really wish it was.

A/N: Okay, I've had some good reviews on this. So, I've decided to hurry and post this chapter up sooner than I was going too. Aren't I so nice? ^_^!

Duo and Heero walked into the dark cave. "May I help…? Oh, look! It's good old Heero!" Heero looked up at him. Duo glared at him warningly. But the slave master ignored him and grabbed Heero.

"So how ya doing boy!" He sneered. "Come to take him back?" The slave master asked and looked at Duo. "If you have, that's too bad! You bought him, so now you have to keep him. And if you're determined to get rid of him, I know a place where you can dump him off with some guy that'll put him to work."

The man sneered and lifted Heero into the air. "No, I'm not here to take him back. I'm here to get three more and if you don't let him go, I'll take my business somewhere else." Duo threatened and glared at the man.

Heero dropped to the floor as he was let go. "Come on Heero." Heero got up and followed him to the back. "Do you have any recommendations Heero?" Duo asked looking around him. "Yes, actually I do." Heero said, looking at him.

Duo looked up at him in shock. "Really?" Heero looked up at him in amusement. "Duo. I may be cold, but I did manage to get some companions here." Duo blushed. "Sorry." Heero smirked. "No problem." Duo looked around again and sighed. "So, where are they?"

Heero looked around him for a second before spotting someone. "Here." Duo followed him to a back corner. They came up to a blond haired boy. As they got closer the boy looked up. "Heero!" He cried happily, smiled, and launched himself at the boy.

Heero remained still as the boy gave him a hug. Finally, the boy pulled back and looked at Duo. "Who is this?" He asked. Heero stepped away and pointed at the boy. "Duo, this is Quatre. Quatre, this is Duo."

Duo moved forward and offered his hand. "Nice to meet you." Quatre looked shocked. "Um… nice to meet you also." Quatre said quietly, moving away from the hand. Duo looked at Heero in confusion. Heero just stared hard at him. Finally, a look of understanding crossed his face.

"Heero, where were you? We were worried about you? Are you okay?" Quatre turned concerned eyes towards Heero. Heero gave him a small smile. "Yes, Quatre. I've been fine. Duo's father bought me." Heero explained.

Quatre glanced at Duo. "Oh. Well we got worried when Wufie can storming over here and demanded to know if we knew where you were." Heero smirked and looked around. "Speaking of Wufie, where is he?" Heero asked.

Quatre smiled at him and pointed to a far corner. Duo looked and saw two figures huddled together. "Trowa and Wufie are together?" Heero asked. Quatre nodded and Heero motioned for them to follow him.

They walked over to the two figures, working on the hard wall. They glanced up as they heard footsteps coming their way. Quatre immediately went to Trowas side and Trowa put an arm around his waist. Duos eyes widened but quickly made his face go back to normal.

Wufie took a step towards Heero. "So Yuy. Where have you been?" Heero knew this was his way of asking if he was al right. Heero glanced at Duo and told him the same thing he told Quatre. Wufie nodded and stared at Duo suspiciously.

"Heero." Duo said, catching Heeros attention again. "I think this will do. I want to get out of here as quick as I can." Heero nodded and looked at the group of three boys. "Duos father wanted him to buy three more boys. I recommended you three."

Heero looked at the three, studying how they would take it. Quatre grinned. "Why Heero. If I didn't know better, I'd say that you liked us and you missed us." Quatre teased. But all three of them were shocked when Heero blushed and looked down.

Duo laughed and looked at them. "So, what do you think of it?" He asked. They three nodded. They knew that he could make them go with him if he wanted, but they had a feeling he wasn't like that.

He stopped a Master as he walked by. "I want you to bring the papers up on these three. I'm taking them home with me today." Duo said, the man nodded and left. As soon as the paperwork was finished, they started making their way towards the door.

As they were headed out they walked by another Master. Without saying a word, he hit Heero in the back with the whip, sending Heero flying forward into the ground. "What do you think your doing?" Duo yelled.

The three boys behind him pushed forward, Wufie in the lead, Trowa behind him, and then Quatre. "Because I felt like it." The man said, sneering. Another Master came from behind and grabbed Heero off the ground. "Stop it right now!" Duo yelled.

Wufie growled and Trowa glared, shoving Quatre further behind him. The first one pulled back and punched Heero hard in the stomach. Heero gasped and pulled forward. Wufie tried to move forward.

"Stay away." Heero told him, pulling on his arms, trying to get them out of the mans grip. Wufie stopped, staring at him, confused. "This *punch* is *punch* for *punch* thinking you're *punch* all *punch* that *punch*!" The man said, stopping when he finished talking.

"Stop!" Duo yelled, glaring dangerously at the men. Wufie and Trowa were tense, hands balled into fists. One word from either Heero or Duo would send them flying at the two men. Heero was slumped in the mans grasp. His face was bloody and bruised, his breath coming in pained gasps.

"I said stop." Duo said, in a hard tone, meaning all business. "Just be sure to watch your back the next time you step foot in here." The men growled and let go of Heero. Heero slumped to the ground and the two men walked away. Everyone rushed up to Heero.

Wufie took one arm and Duo took the other one. They helped him on his feet. "Let go of me. I can walk by myself." Heero protested. "No, we're going to help you." Duo said softly. Heero shook his head. Duo and Wufie refused to let go. "We're going to help you." Duo repeated.

"Baka, just let us help you." Wufie scolded. Heero lowered his head and they took that as consent and helped him out.

Wufie rubbed the rag gently across Heeros back. Heero hissed as the water got into the cuts. "Sorry, I'm almost done." Wufie said softly. Wufie wiped off some more and then put the rag down. He picked up a towel and gently pat dried his back off. "Mushikaneru." Heero whispered.

Wufie grinned. "You forget Yuy. I'm Chinese, not Japanese." "I said, I'm sorry to trouble you." "You're not troubling me. You're a friend." Heero stiffened. "You don't know what you're talking about." Wufie glared at him.

"Don't tell me what I know of do not know of Yuy. I know that I consider you a friend and I… I don't mind helping you out." *Maybe, a little more than I should* Wufie mind told him. *Shut up*. "I've got things to do," Heero said as he stood up and left.

Wufie was left on his bed as he watched Heero walk out the door. *You haven't got a chance Chang*. Wufie scowled. *I don't care about that baka* he said determinedly. *Oh yeah! Right! You just about went crazy with worry when you couldn't find him in the caves. * For this, Wufie couldn't find a retort, so he went with one of his older ones. *Shut up*.

When Duo entered the living room he found Heero standing on a stood dusting the shelves. "Heero, what are you doing?" Heero jumped in surprise. The movement caused the stool to wiggle. Heero lost his balance and fell forward. Right into Duos arms.

Duo and Heero stared into each others eyes. Duo's arms were wrapped around him. "Um… are you al right?" Duo asked. "My chest." Heero looked away. "Oh! Sorry." Duo said as he quickly let go. "Thanks," Heero said, avoiding looking at Duo.

"Your welcome," Duo said politely, flesh still tingling. A loud bang echoed throughout the house. "Your fathers back." Heero said. As if to further confirm this, a voice rang out, echoing through the halls. "Heero, come take my things to my room." Duo watched as Heero rushed out of the living room.

Duo sat in his room, confused by his strong feelings for cobalt blue eyes boy. Was it love? Maybe. Maybe, it was more like a brotherly love, Duo reasoned. He had only known him for a couple of days but his feelings had been weird since the very beginning.

There was just something in the boy that drew everyone to him. Maybe it was the way his eyes were so cold, but could express such warm feelings at times. He had heard his father tell Heero he needed Heero in his room tonight. He had a bad feeling about this.

He had to help Heero. Maybe Wufie, Trowa, and Quatre would help him. He knew Wufie would most definitely help him out. Wufie seemed to hold strong feelings for him as well. He wouldn't be that surprised if they got together.

A weird feeling started up inside him with that thought. Jealousy? Duo shook his head. No, he was just being protective. Wasn't he? He decided he would think about this later. Probably Trowa and Quatre. But Trowa would put Quatre first.

It had been painfully obvious that those two were together from the very start. He sighed and lay down on the bed. Everything happened so fast. He viewed his father differently now. He wasn't a perfect god to him anymore. He smiled. What if Wufie was in love with Heero? Now that was an interesting concept.

It wasn't hard to comprehend. Wufie would only be in love with the most beautiful angel that ever fell from the sky. Duos eyes widened. Well, he reasoned. Heero was beautiful. There was nothing wrong with stating the obvious. But what about the angel part?

He decided that would wait for later also. Now, he had to keep him safe. He chuckled as he remembered the events from earlier today. He had caught Trowa and Quatre making out in the garden after breakfast.

Okay, how was that? Any good!? Should I continue? I have to admit, I'm sorta leaning towards Wufie/Heero. Theres a lot of Duo/Heeros out there. And right now, I'm sorta in the mood for a Wufie/Heero. Sorry Duo/Heero fans. How about this… who else do you want to see him with? Zechs? Treize? Hilde? Who? And whoever has the most will be the lucky person who gets to be with Duo. So vote! Or I'll think that you don't care who he goes with.
