Silent Cries by Willow
Heero sat at his laptop, typing away as usual. His lover was asleep on the bed, all was silent sans the clicking of keys.

Duo usually slept peaceful enough, sometimes letting out a soft snore or two then settling back into the hush of restfulness. But tonight there was something wrong, Heero could feel it. Duo was too silent. No snores, no contented sighs, nothing. Heero stopped typing, trying to listen and catch any sound, however faint, his ears could pick up.

After a time, he was about to give up when he heard it. A hushed sound, not really a cry, but more of a 'huff' of air. Heero could bearly hear it, so he stood and padded as silently as possible across the room to the bed where is lover lay.

Duo was, as usual, sprawled out with the bed clothes tangled about him. His sleeping tee (AN: he is wearing a reeeeaally big tee-shirt, k?) hung off on shoulder to about his elbow and his hand clutched at the hem. His face was turned in to the pillow and he looked as if he were in distress.

Heero leaned down closer to the boy and listened closely.

*Huff*

There it was again, that sound. Like a muffled sob, or something. Heero reached out a hand and turned the boy onto his back. Heero peered closer as he saw something glinting in the light. Tears? Was Duo crying? Well, that would explain the muffled sobbing sounds. Duo crying in his sleep... it would have to be some really bad nightmare for that to happen.

Heero, deciding to end his love's distress and pain, leaned down and kissed him gentle on the lips. Upon contact, Duo sat bolt upright. His eyes, wild with fear and pain, flickered about the room until he grasped where he was. He looked over at Heero, recognizing his lover, and threw his arms around him, pulling the other close.

Words, mindless babble, spilled from him lips in an effort to bring himself past the nightmare. He was dimly aware of strong, warms arms encircling him, a hand rubbing his back, and a soft voice chanting 'Shh, it's alright, I'm here...' over and over.

He tried to calm himself, to feel the soothing motion of the hand and the soft, kind voice (which his mind recognized as Heero, but why it was tagged kind was beyond his comprehension). Soon he found himself back in the land of Nod. Dreams came, but this time they were not of death and destruction, but of a wonderful silent boy and the love between them. (AN: anou...*cough*)(Muse: Just say it!)(AN: Say what?)(Muse: Wet dream!!!)(AN: Shut up, you!)

Heero felt the boy relax and heard the faint tell-tale whisper (1) that meant he was in a peaceful sleep once again. Heero got up and turned off the computer, the mission could wait till the morning. Right now, Heero wanted to ensure another mission was completed successfully. He returned to the bed, gathered the boy in his arms, and proceeded to protect his beloved's sweet slumber. (2)
