Chapter 5: The Storm

Heero was just coming back from a dinner party with Marty, (the girl he now called his girlfriend), it hadn't been bad at all, no it was kind of fun, until a point, a very specific point. Heero had dance and conversed with executives and wile it may have seemed boring to normal people remember, Heero was a good dancer and wile he had little to no conversation skills he still put in a word here or there but mostly enjoyed listening, it reminded him of his infiltration days. Marty had introduced her new boyfriend and the entire company seemed to like her choice of men, it was not hard to tell who was Julie, she almost seemed jealous of him, but he made sure they had plenty of time to themselves. However, the party was almost halfway through when 'the esteemed Ms. Relena Peacecraft' announced her arrival, and Heero was happy to 'show off' his new 'girlfriend', Relena was shocked and almost made a scene, what is so bad about this you ask, nothing it's what happened next that bites.

~Past~

"Heero, I've got some vacation time coming up and me and a FRIEND are going on a cruse, I won't be able to make it to Duo's wedding, god you don't know how sorry I am!" Marty said in a secluded corner of the ballroom. Her eyes gave away that she was truly sorry but she had a chance to be with the one she loved out in the open, no worries.

"Of course Marty, I understand, and it would be selfish of me to ask you to stay, I'll just go stag." Heero said fake smile plastered on his face it was overly obvious he wasn't happy but he meant his words.

"Oh, no Heero Yuy, even if miss bimbo could go, you promised me weeks ago you'd be my escort, … remember?" She smiled a little too sweetly "You promised me you'd be my escort, so you will be my escort."

Heero flinched, and nodded, he did remember, unfortunately. "Good then silly Heero, I'll be looking forward to it!" And with a flirty smile she turned on her heel and left.

"She was flirting, right in front of your girlfriend, no tact, are you sure you don't want me to stay Heero, there'll be other cruses?"

"Look over there, see that girl, you can't tell me you really could pass up this chance and you deserve it, Marty, just go I'll be ok, REALLY, I'm fine." 'Yea, Freaked-out, insecure, neurotic, and emotional' Heero added in his head, oh yea he had to stop watching so many movies. (1).

~Present~

After that the night was hell, it had even started to rain and it looked like a thunderstorm was coming. Heero had hurried back to Wufei and Duo's house because Wufei was out on Business, and Duo was scared to death of thunderstorms (2), ever since the Maxwell church caught fire in a thunderstorm and burned to the ground, it killed a lot of people. Also, Heero knew it brought back memories of how he use to live on the streets and how the cold lonely night felt, during the war, Duo had once been so scared, wile staying at a boarding school for a mission, that he had no been able to stop shaking and Heero ended up, sitting up all night talking to the braided baka with all the lights on.

Heero stepped in out of the storm, yes it was now a thunderstorm, sure as the world, and was not surprised to see Duo sitting on the couch watching TV, listening to the radio, trying to read a book, with the whole house lit up, and pale as a ghost. He hadn't even notice Heero coming in and he was 10 ft away.

"Duo, are you alright?" Heero ask.

"Oh, yea, peachy keen, …" Duo fidgeted a little and Heero just stared, "Ok, maybe a little scared…" Then the thunder crackled across the sky. "SCARED SHITTLESS" Duo screamed jumping off the couch and landing in a little puddle on the ground with blankets round his head. Heero had to laugh; Duo poked his head out "Not, funny!" He said pouting.

"Sorry" Heero stifled another laugh. He moved over to Duo. "Why are you in the living room it has like a billion windows?"

"I…I was waiting for someone to get back, or well the only room without windows, is the 3ed guest room and it don't have a TV, or stereo. I… I feel better with a lot of noise." Duo smiled up at Heero. Then the lights went out.

"Eeeep" Duo froze head coved by the blanket. "God help me!" Heero shook his head it was hard to believe this was once a Gundam pilot and is someone he considers an equal, cowering in the dark over a thunderstorm. Another strike of lightning burst through the windows, "EEEEPPP" the little blanket on the floor jumped.

"Duo there are no more lights, you should go to that bedroom without the windows." Heero suggested.

"Yea, that's what I'll do, …" Duo got up and started to walk away, "Hee … Heero, w-will yo-you come w-with meeeeeeppp?" Another bolt shot through the sky.

"Sure Duo." 'I would do anything for you' he added silently.

"You know until Wufei gets back, she should be back, oh in an hour or so." 'I almost wish he weren't coming back' Duo bit his lip at the thought. 'How could you say that about someone you love', /you don't, not quite as much as you love Mr. Perfect Soldier here/, 'shut up, I love Wu-bear, very much we'll have a happy life.' He snapped back at himself. Heero just nodded.

~Gradndell Hotel~

"Well, I'm going to have to apologies to you all, it seems due to the storm we'll all have to stay at the hotel, as the roads are temporarily washed out." A voice announced over the intercom at the hotel Wufei, Quatre, Trowa, and many others were currently at for meeting purposes. "Also, the phone lines are down, this is a bad one people, hang in there, thank you."

"Danm," Wufei cursed, "This is injustice!" Wufei ranted on and on until a familiar face surfaced.

"Hi, guy's long time no see." Sally entered the meeting room; everyone said warm hellos to the girl. Everyone had forgotten Sally's husband Steve was there. "Have any of you seen my dear husband?" She ask, everyone shook their heads no. "well, he is probably in a meeting or something nothing to worry about." She smiled and joined the conversation, well actually the conversation started when Sally arrived because until then Wufei had just been ranting.

~Wufei and Duo's~

Heero, successfully got one scared tired Duo all tucked into bed, still barely resisting the urge to laugh every time Duo let out a squeal, even though they couldn't see the lighting anymore, thunder still etched its was through the house and rain bombarded the surroundings. He thought the other boy was finally asleep so he tried to leave, then a hand as quack as the lightning it was so afraid of shot out and grabbed his wrist. A frightened pair of spectacular amethyst eyes peered out from under the covers.

"Please, Hee-eero don't leave me, this storm is was to similar to…"

"Shh, it's ok," Heero sat beside Duo who still didn't let go on his vice grip, "everything'll be alright." Heero had never seen Duo this bad off.

'This is real out of character for Heero, I know he'll probably call me weak tomorrow, but I can't help it, this feels just like that nigh, I … I a m really scared, hum Shinigami, god of death, scared of thunderstorms, I'd laugh but I'm to petrified.' Duo thought. Another thunder Duo subconsciously, jumped up onto Heero's lap, and buried his head against his chest, shaking like a child. (3) 'he'll kill me' Duo buried his head into Heero's shirt at a second lap of thunder. 'God I hate thunder'.

~Hotel~

"Oh God Oh, Oh GOD" The four friend walked down the hall toward their sleeping quarters. Trowa and Quatre shared a look that conveyed the fact that they didn't need to go to bed just yep, the neighbors were too nosey to sleep anyway.

"Do you think you'd like to talk some more, Sally, Wufei, maybe in your one of your rooms?" Quatre ask politely. It was only then they noticed the look of utter horror on Sally's face. Quatre put a hand on her shoulder, "Sally are you alright, you look … pale?" She didn't answer.

"Oh, Oh, My God, Yeah, Yea, Right THERE, come on, oh, oh, God, GOD." The male neighbor shouted again and now Quatre noticed other than Sally's shock, Wufei had gotten this look of 'I'm going to kill someone NOW' in this eye and he was eyeing the door. Sally started to cry.

"That Bastard, this is injustice in it's purest." Wufei said with barely contained anger.

"Oh, Steve!" A female voice called. That set the cranks cranking in little Quatre's head. Sally was being cheated on.

"Now Wufei, calm down." Quatre tried, as it looked like he was going to break the door down then and there, of course Quatre was wrong, Wufei had more restraint that that. He restrained himself and broke the door down 10 seconds latter.

~3ed guest bedroom~

"It's ok, it's ok, don't worry Duo, I'm here." Heero comforted the braided one. 'It's wrong but for some reason I just feel so happy right now' Heero thought.

Duo whimpered into Heero's shirt, 'Well, he hasn't killed me yet, so' Duo was cut short but more thunder, several consecutive ones at the sound of it, he pushed Heero flat on his back, so that Duo was now on top of Heero's chest. 'Now I'm in for it' duo thought.

Heero had to remind himself how to breathe, 'he's on top of me, oh, god he's on top of me' Heero had forgotten his reassurances, and was now reciting his new mantra in his head.

'He's not talking, he looks a little pale, oh, I'm going to die for this, but I think it may be worth it' Duo bit his lip and closed his eyes waiting for the worst.

Meanwhile, Heero was petrified, not by the storm, but by Duo, 'get a grip' He brought his arms up to encircle Duos lithe body, and rubbed his back "Duo, Thunder can't hurt you."

'He's not angry?' "Lightning can." 'God, he's rubbing my back, really, I could die now, life would end perfectly'

Heero thought back on all the time thunderstorms had happened wile he was around Duo, then he felt Duo snuggle closer than he thought humanly possible. 'This feel's good, right, it always has, I could stay like this forever.' He held onto Duo's braid, and smelled his hair, 'Strawberry' He always loved the way Duo's hair smelt, he had always said find something you think smells good and go with it, he even bought shampoo and conditioner for Heero, coconut, silly right, but ever since then he's used the same stupid shampoo and such. He looked at Duo, he looked so venerable, he looked so good, his lips were ruby red from where he had bitten them, 'he needs to kick that habit' Heero mentally noted, his face has the perfect heart shape, his eyes, so violet, 'he's looking at me, he must have seen me stare'.

'Oh, no he knows I'm looking why can't I look away, his face it's just so, close, so… very… close…'

1) It's the meaning of fine form The Italian Job, my cousin's fave movie.

2) Bear with me ok I know I'm making shit up but in this whole next part but please forgive, thax's.

3) Again I apologize, I just made Duo a little on the 5 year old child side in this so sorry.
