Adorable Rescue
-----part 1-----
"That's the last of 'em." Heero looked at the unconscious boy in his
arms, there in the cockpit of Wing. "Please, be all right, Duo. If
they touched you..." he stroked the other boy's face then kissed his
forehead. "I'm taking you to see a doctor." he decided. "You're
going to be all right." he opened a com channel. "Quatre, tell your
medics I need them to examine Duo."
"Will do." Quatre radioed ahead and prepared the medics for Heero and
Duo's arrival.

As he flew Wing toward the Winner Estate, Heero was distracted by Duo
pushing his shirt up. "Hey! Quit that!" he said, firmly. "What the
hell are...?!" his demand was cut off by his own gasp of surprise as
Duo began to suck, quietly, on one of his nipples. "Duo?!"
Quatre's image appeared on Heero's com channel at that moment.
"Heero, don't push Duo away just yet. I'll explain later." he broke
the connection before Heero could reply.
"I hate it when he does that." Heero grumbled.
A short while later, Duo was sound asleep while Quatre spoke with
Heero.
"Why did you tell me not to push Duo away?"
"It would've traumatized him." Quatre explained. 'He wasn't raped,
fortunately, But he was severely abused both physically and mentally.
That's why he temporarily regressed."
"Are you trying to tell me Duo was actually *nursing* from me?" Heero
asked in disbelief.
Quatre gave a nod.
"You said 'temporarily'." Heero noted.
"Once the physical pain was less of a burden, his mind decided it
could handle the emotional pain without needing a crutch." Quatre
explained. "Duo's hurt, Heero. But he's going recover and he will be
okay."
-----part 2-----
Duo and Heero sat on the sofa in the living room. The other pilots
had gone to bed hours beforehand, but Heero had asked Duo to sit up
with him.
"Heero?" Duo asked. "What's wrong?"
"I almost lost you, Duo." Heero said. "It made me realize how much
you mean to me. Come, I want to show you something." He lead Duo out
to where the Gundams were stored.
Duo gaped in shock at what he saw.
Heero had positioned Wing down on one knee in front of Deathscythe
with Wing's head tilted back and up.
"Heero." Duo asked, his knees buckling. "Are you... asking me
to....?"
"Will you?" Heero asked.
Duo barely managed to say "Yes." before swooning.
Heero caught his new fiance and carried him back into the safe house.
"I love you, Duo." he whispered as he carried Duo upstairs to the
bedroom. He lowered Duo onto the bed, but could not bring himself to
make love to the other boy. "I won't defile you." he shook his head.
'Not you. You deserve better. I promise you, you'll be a virgin on
our wedding night."
-----part 3-----
The bachelor party, held at a local hotel, was well underway. Heero
smiled and held Duo close as they danced into the night. Quatre had
made sure every dance was a slow one. He wanted to give them as much
chance to be close as possible.
"Heero," Duo whispered as the night wore on. "I don't feel so well."
"What's wrong?" he asked.
"I think I'm getting scared because... well, you know..."
Heero smiled. "Why don't you go lie down in one of the rooms and rest
for a bit? I'll come get you when it's time to go home."
"Thanks, Heero." Duo found a bellhop who escorted him to a room.
"You may rest here for a bit," the man told Duo. He left the room
then paused. For a moment, a feeling of guilt overcame him. He
fingered the bill in his pocket, took a deep breath, and walked away.
Duo drifted off to sleep. He didn't know how long he was unconscious,
but he woke with someone else's weight on top of him and his face
shoved into the pillow. He tried to fight them off, they weren't
heavy, should've been easy to dislodge, but couldn't gather any
strength. Something rammed into him, over and over, tearing him
apart inside. he tried to scream, but he couldn't get his head up
from the pillow. He fought until he could no longer deny the truth.
Then, he lay still and waited for it to be over.

The party was in full swing, Heero and the others were enjoying
themselves completely unaware of the events unfolding two floors
above them.
"I'm going to check on Duo." Heero decided after a while. "I'll be
back in a bit."
-----part 4-----
Duo felt his assailant pause, as if hearing a noise. He felt
the huge thickness being withdraw from his torn body. Felt the rapist
climb off of the bed. He heard the rustle of clothes and something
being placed in the dresser.
The door opened and Duo heard voices.
"Heero!" Relena's voice. "Thank god. I just got here a few minutes
ago. Heero, he's hurt."
"Did you see the son of a bitch who did this?" Heero demanded.
Relena shook her head. "He may have gone through one of the
connecting doors." she suggested. "I'll stay with Duo, see if you can
find the guy who did this."
Heero looked around the room, trying to find any clues. Nothing.
"Damn." he nodded to Relena. "Okay, I'm going to find the bastard to
did this. Then, we're going to get Duo to the hospital."
"No." Relena shook her head.
"No?" Heero asked.
"I mean we should wait until he wakes up. He may not wish to go. We
should respect that."
Heero nodded. "Just stay with him for now." he left the room, feeling
torn. He wanted to stay with Duo, but he also wanted to find the man
who'd raped him. And since he wanted to kill the son of a bitch, he
had to find him before anyone else did.
He was halfway to the elevator when something struck him. Relena had
suggested that the rapist had escaped through a connecting door. It
was a perfectly logical assumption. So what was wrong with it?
Heero arrived at the elevator and pressed the button. As the doors
slid open he realized.
There were no connecting doors.
Heero ran back to the room. He rushed into the room and grabbed
Relena. "You bitch!" he swore at her. "You fucking whore!" He slammed
her into the wall, face first, over and over. "Is there a door
there?" he asked each time her body made contact with the wall.
"There is no connecting door."
"Dresser." Duo managed to choke out.
Heero released Relena who fell to the floor like a sack of grain. He
stormed over to the dresser and opened it. He stared at the item in
the dresser, a spiked strap-on with Duo's blood drying on it. He
slammed the dresser shut.
"He deserved it." Relena sobbed, holding her now-broken nose. "He was
a worthless slut."
"If you say anything like that again, Relena, I'll shove that dildo
into your mouth and lock the strap behind your head so you can't get
it out." Heero was beyond pissed off. He aimed his gun at Relena.
"Don't..." Duo pleaded, weakly.
"She raped you." Heero pointed out.
"She's not worth your going to jail." Duo told him. "Please, Heero.
Let's just go home."
When all was said and done, Heero lowered his gun and took Duo into his
arms. "You're right. But first I've got to get you to a hospital. You're
hurt, Duo. I know," he added quickly, seeing the look of shame in Duo's
exhausted eyes, "I know you're afraid that people will think less of you
if they find out. They won't, I promise."
"How do you know?" Duo asked, too tired to protest as Heero lifted him
from the bed.
Heero gazed down at the braided pilot with only love in his usually cold
eyes.
"Because I don't."
