Gundam Wing Fan Fiction ❯ The Tears that had Never Been Shed ❯ Hidden Pain ( Chapter 9 )

A/N: I'm SO sorry that it's taken me so long to update….anyways, I had this like horrible writers block and I finally had an idea for the story…and if your still mad at me…kudos for holding a grudge against a chibi yaoi fan who wants nothing more out of life than to be a sushi mascot! TT_TT *ahem* Umm…here's the chapter.

 

Recap:

Duo looked up, his expression asking for them to leave. Heero watched as the others left the room, leaving him alone with Duo. “Heero…?” Duo ask timidly.

“Hm?”

“I want to tell you something.”

 

Chapter 9: Hidden Pain

 

“…What is it?” Heero muttered through his bruised lips.

 

“Heero…I-I love you…and I have for sometime…I couldn't tell you because I was afraid but within the last couple of days I have been more afraid than I have ever been…and I never want to feel like that again. “

 

Heero's eyes were wide and he merely stared in shock at the man before him. “Heero…when you disappeared I thought I would never see you again…” by this time there were tears running down Duo's heart shaped face. The pain of rejection was growing every second that Heero said nothing…did nothing…or even acknowledge that he was there.

 

Heero's mouth had gone dry and as much as he wanted to respond, the words seemed to have died in his throat. Tears were stinging his eyes as he continued to watch the crumbling pilot in front of him. “D-Duo?” Heero managed.

 

Duo raised his face to look at the man he considered an angel, and was surprised by the utmost sorrow that was sketched into his face. “What's wrong?!” he ask concerned.

 

“Why?” was Heero's reply.

 

“Why? Why what?”

 

“Why do you love me? How could you…you're an angel and I'm….dirty.”

 

Duo was surprised at the self-degrading words that flowed from Heero's mouth. “What are you talking about?” He asked confused.

 

“I….I can't tell you…but….I want to. You…you deserve better…”

 

“Heero, I want you! Can't you see that?”

 

“People come and go Duo; and are forgotten. I am nothing compared to so many…there are times that I ask myself why I even try….it's so hard Duo. It's just so hard.”

 

“What's hard?”

 

“To keep up this façade; it's so exhausting and I just don't have the energy anymore.”

 

“Oh baby.” Duo whispered, as he pulled Heero's broken body to him. He had never seen the boy in such a fragile state. `What happened to you Heero?' Duo thought unhappily.

 

The next morning:

 

Heero slowly regained consciousness as the morning light spilled into the small hospital room. Groaning softly he began to raise his head but was stopped by an arm wrapped around his shoulders in a manner that was comforting in a way that was unusual and new to the perfect soldier. Raising his eyes he saw Duo's face sleeping peacefully; as he rested against the head board. `This feeling…what is it? My stomach feels as though it's fluttering…almost like butterflies…' Heero wondered.

 

The sunlight streamed across Duo's face and seemed to cast a perfect shadow across his face. A deep blush made itself known to Heero as he stared at the angel holding him. Duo's eyes fluttered slightly before beginning to open. Looking down he noticed Heero was staring at him. “Morning sunshine.” Duo whispered before kissing Heero lightly.

 

TBC.
