The next morning Duo woke to Trowa and Quatre curled up together on a cot pulled as close to his hospital bed as possible, Trowa's hand outstretched to grab Duo's, and both Wufei and Heero curled up on the couch together. He watched them for a bit but finally he had to shake the hand Trowa held to wake him up. Trowa woke slowly, but seeing Duo awake brought him back to the land of the living pretty quickly. Carefully extracting himself from his blonde lover, he bent to Duo's side.
"What is the matter? Are you in too much pain? I can call Sally," Trowa asked.
"No, I am fine, just really really hungry. How long had it been since I ate?" Duo asked.
Trowa actually gave Duo a little smile, nearly knocking Duo for a loop, "It is Sunday morning, so it has been quite a while. Give me a minute, I think there is a McDonalds a block from the hospital. I will get you something edible, I know how hospital food is. It tastes like cardboard and they never give a growing boy enough." With that said, he headed out the door.
The movement seemed to wake Heero, who woke Wufei. They both quickly approached Duo. "Are you feeling okay, Duo? In pain?" Wufei asked.
"No, I am fine. Trowa left to get me some food, so as soon as I get that I will be fantastic." Duo grinned. After all the crying and what Quatre and Trowa said to him, he felt more like himself. He know that he would never fully be okay, and trauma was possibly lurking around the corner, but he felt better.
Wufei smiled gently at Duo. Again Duo was knocked for a loop. What was with the emotionless and honour bound pilots smiling today? They never smiled! At least not as Duo. Heero took a step forward, "Duo, Adam won't be bothering you again. I made sure of it."
Duo smiled gratefully at Heero, not asking what he did. It was probably not legal, so the fewer who knew, the less likely Heero was to get caught for whatever he had done. "Thank you. I just... I thought that I could trust him. He was always friendly, always nice. It was simply a plus that he was pretty strong and good looking. I never... I never thought he would do that."
Wufei touched Duo on the arm above the caste, "It isn't your fault. Nobody knew. And he incapacitated you. Sally found that drug in your system. I know you Duo, you are a fighter. You did everything you could to defend yourself. I know it. I didn't have to be there to know it either."
"I agree," Heero nodded. "And it was obvious he had done this before. He had it planned to perfection."
Trowa stepped back into the room with 2 huge bags of McDonalds in his hands. "Geez, Trowa! How much do you think I eat?! That is like enough for 5 or me!"
Trowa gave a low throated laugh, "That is because it is. There is enough for everyone, I don't think any of us want to eat hospital food and we might as well not make two trips."
"That is true, I guess. So what did you get me?" Duo asked excitedly. He was famished!
The next couple days Sally forced Duo to stay in the hospital, and the others rallied around him, even as Duo did his best to recover quickly. Not just physically, but mentally as well. Then Wednesday came. Duo was suppose to be getting out of the hospital the next morning and was really excited. As he talked with Quatre about random things, he notices Heero whisper something to Trowa before heading for the door, waving Wufei to follow.
Trowa approached the bed and placed a hand on Quatre's shoulder. Trowa spoke into the silence that quickly decended, "Duo, we, Quatre and I, have been meaning to speak to you about something. We were afraid to tell you, but with recent events... we think you need to know. I want you to know we are not trying to push you into anything you don't want to, but..."
Quatre sighed, "Duo, we love you. Not just as family, but like a lover. Both of us feel the same. We always have, but until a few months ago we were too scared to tell the other, and when we finally were able to do so, we were too scared to tell you. You don't have to-"
"I love you both. Always have. As lovers. I just... never thought I had a chance. You have each other, why would you need me?" Duo cut off Quatre.
Trowa reached for Duo's left hand, "Because you make us feel complete. We love each other, but we don't feel complete unless you are there with us. Duo, would you be a part of our relationship? Will you help make us complete?"
Duo stared at Trowa for a full minute, then Quatre for a full minute. Finally a smile, a real one, not one of his showy ones, bloomed on his face. "Yes. Yes, I would love to make you, as well as myself, complete."
