CHAPTER 1

How many times have you told me, you love her
As many times as I wanted to tell you the truth

I walked down the hall with my friends, Quatre, Trowa, and Wufei as a crows stood by my lockers. I already knew who it was that was in the centre of that crowd, his name Duo Maxwell, the hottest and most popular guy at school. By his side stood as women a little shorter than him, her name was Hilde. Just thinking about them together made my blood boil. Why? Well, Duo Maxwell may not talk to me when we're around our friends but when were alone and no one can see, we're best friends. We hang out after school and talk about our lives. We met back in nineth grade after he moved here, where I lived. Right from the start he was popular but in secret we had become friends. Later on I realized I was falling in-love with my best friend who had started to date Hilde, the school slut, as I liked to call her. I knew right than that I couldn't tell him the truth for in grade eleven he told me that he was falling in-love with her. It had hurt to hear that come from his mouth and so I kept his friendship close to me and held it dearly. I know I sound sappy right now but that's how I fell at the moment. Every once in a while we would break out in a fight at school so people wouldn't think things about him and I and laughed about it later at home. Now we're in our last year of high school and I can finally leave this heart-ache and pain behind and find a new life and a new love.

How long have I stood beside you?

Ha! Yeah right, who am I kidding. I'll never be able to get over him no matter what. He's to perfect for me to forget.

"Oh look who it is, pathetic Heero Yuy and his useless groupies." Yep today was one of our fighting days. I looked up at him and noticed his smiling eyes but angry lips, oh how I wanted to kiss those lips right now was not the time to think about such things. My eyes glowed back at his as I came up with a witty come back.
"You and your little oregy group are in my way. So unless you want to stay and catch some kind of disease from my locker you should move." As always we both found this fun.

"Your right, we wouldn't want to catch your disease. Let's go guys." As they left the girls had decided that it was now cool to put their hands in my face as they followed Duo like lost dogs who didn't know where else to go. I was laughing inside but on the outside I was scowling as the group laughed as they walked away. What idiots they were.

That night Duo and I decided to stay at my house and rent some movies and get some take-out. As usual Duo started talking about Hilde, my least favorite topic. I sighed and went along with him but it was killing me to do so. It hurt me to hear the way he talked about her, as if she was a angel who fell from heaven and into his arms. As I prentend to listen the next thing he said made me look at him, my face draining of colour as he said it.

"I told Hilde that I loved her today, she didn't say anything back but I guess it was a shock to her. Oh Heero, I think I want to marry her after school is done and over with. If I do ask her to marry me I hope she says yes." My heart broke alittle more at hearing this confession. Of course, me being the best friend who isn't gay and in love with their best friend, didn't let it show on my face. Instead I put on the calm, not caring, happy face so he wouldn't see my true emotions that I felt at that moment.

"Hn, whatever. Do what you want to do with your life. I wont be around for it though. I'm going to be leaving after graduation. I got accepted to Tokyo University. I have to go there and find an appartment near compus. I hope everything goes well for you after school is out." I walked by Duo, whose mouth was hanging open, shock was written all over his face. Yes this is how I acted towards him, as if I didn't care what he did, because if I acted as if I cared than who knows what I would say to him. I might let it slip that I have fallen in love with him.

"When were you planning on telling me this news? Heero you know we don't keep secrets from one another, so why did you keep this from me? I'm your best friend. Best friends don't hide stuff from one another."

I live through you,
You look through me

If only he knew what I kept a lot of secrets from him, than he would hate me and never talk to me again. Not because I didn't tell him just because he's straight and he hates gay guys.

"Hn, you've been busy with Hilde so I was waiting until you came over to tell you face-to-face because I thought it would be better than a quick 'hey Duo, oh I'm going to be leaving after grad but since your busy I thought I'd just tell you and say goodbye now.' What do you think I am Duo? I wouldn't want to do that." A sad expression came over his face now. He did something that surprised me beyond belief. He came up to me and wrapped his arms around my waist and hugged me. Tears spilling down his cheeks.

Oh if only he was crying because he didn't want me to go because of our love that would be lost if I left. Yes I am a romantic and I admit to it but I admit it only to myself and not to anyone else.

I just stood there, not knowing what to do or say at that moment. It was as if I was frozen in that spot, shock still not leaving my body. "Heero, what am I going to do when you leave? You're my best friend. I need you." I looked down at him and saw something more in his eyes that I didn't really get. I just let it go for the time being not trying to figure out what exactly that I saw in his eyes at that one moment.

Ooh, Solitude,
Still with me is only you

That night I just watched Duo sleep as I laid wide awake in bed. I have never seen Duo cry before and now that I had, I didn't want to make him cry again KAMI! What am I going to do? I turned to him again, now noticing that I was stroking his lose bound hair. It felt like silk as I ran my fingers through it.I looked back at the ceiling and thought over my options.A) Stay here and go to the University here to stay with Duo. B) Tell Duo how I feel about him and than leave when he gets pissed off at me and never wants to see me again. C) Just leave after grad and don't tell him that I left. D) Stay here and be miserable for the rest of my life.

Ooh, Solitude I can't stay away from you

I'm so confused now, I really want to go to Tokyo and get a good job, but if I got Duo will be sad. But if I don't than I'll regret it, what do I do? Maybe it's time that I talk to my friends and come clean with them. I know they wont hate me for being gay. I mean Trowa and Quatre are together and Wufei did have a boyfriend at one point. Alright than, come Monday morning I'll tell them everything, right from when Duo and I became friends when he first came to our school right to my current situation of me liking him and than wanting to leave this place to get away from the heart break.
