Something, or rather someone had run into Quatre and knocked him over. "Ite.. Did someone see who was driving that truck?" Getting up slowly, he was greeted by a very pale, panting Heero. He looked like he just ran the iron-man. "Tro..Heero? Doshita no? Are you okay?" [what's the matter]
Heero: "..I..*pant*...it's....*pant*....Relena's....*pant*...HERE!"
Aww.. Poor Trowa. That's so kawaii! He doesn't know what to do with her. Should I help him? *looks at Heero thoughtfully* Well.. maybe just this once.
"Just act like you normally do. It's not like this is the first time she's come looking for you Heero."
The mention of his body's name seemed turn the lights back on upstairs. Oh. Right. I forgot. I'm in Heero's body. Just act like he normally does. Which is? Urg, cold you idiot! Pay attention. Quatre's watching you. You can't let him know. "Hn." Did I do that correctly?
Quatre: "Na Heero. She probably just came to see you. I don't think she'll get in your way, so relax."
Heero: "...So da na. I ran into you. Gomen." [right/you're right, sorry]
Quatre: "Daijiyobu." Okay Trowa. I've decided this will be your last chance. Come clean now or forever hold your peace. "Ne, Heero. Is there something you want to tell me?"
Heero: "..." Keep your mask on. Don't let him suspect anything. "Nani mo nai."
*turns and walks away, face blank.*
Quatre: If thats your answer...."NA! SO YOU DON'T MIND IF ME AND TROWA.."
Heero: *turns around abruptly* "If you what?" *penetrating gaze*
Quatre: "If I..." *looks away* *smiles* "Iya. Never mind."
Heero: "What?" *walks back towards Quatre.*
Quatre: *strikes Xellos's famous pose [1]* "Sorewa...himitsu desu." *walks away chuckling*
Heero, actually Trowa, stared blankly as he walked away. Nanda, sore. [what is this?]
~change room~
Trowa was getting dressed in silence as usual. Today's class was weight training so Trowa, really Heero, decided a tank top would be appropriote. Fortunately, or unfortunately depending on how you look at it, this attire showed Trowa Bartons incredible physic. (If you want to know, watch Endless Waltz ^_^)
Student 1: "Wow. Trowa-kun, you are really....really...buff."
Student 2: "Soh. Do you work out a lot?" [yes/yeah]
Student 3: "Honto ni sugoi. Normally you can't tell. How long have you been working out?" [really amazing]
Trowa: "...." *slowly turnes his head to look at the trio* *deathglare 100% max power*
trio: *turing green quickly* "He..he..Sumimasen." *makes a run for it* [sorry]
Poor Quatre chose this moment to open the door and was slammed, once again, to the floor.
Quatre: "Ite...This is NOT my day." *covers his face with his hands* "Will you all get off me?"
Student 1: "Gomen, gomen Quatre-kun."
Student 2: "We were sort of in a hurry."
Student 3: "Lets go before he tries to kill us!"
Quatre: "Nani? Who's trying to kill you?"
Student 3: "We kinda pissed off Trowa-kun."
Student 1: "You should have saw his face! Very scary."
Student 2: "You better hurry up. He looks like he's going to kill anyone who gets in his way."
Quatre: "Iya. Trowa is not that kind of person. He's very gentle. He won't hurt you....At least...I don't think he will." I know Trowa won't but Heero is another matter.
trio: "That's not very convincing!" *student 1 helps Quatre up, then runs off with the others*
The rest of the people in the change room seemed to have gotten the drift that Trowa was on a rampage. Some went to investigate and upon seeing the very muscular man with a very mean look, everyone quickly left the room, leaving Quatre alone with Trowa.
After nearly being trampled on by 20 freaked out students, Quatre was finally able to enter the change room. Heero has to learn to control his face. Trowa never shows emotions. "Sorry I'm late."
Trowa remained silent and made his way for the door. He felt something tugging him and found that Quatre had grabbed his shirt when he passed him. He turned to face him, but Quatre was looking the other way.
Quatre: "Please don't go around looking like that. It's not like you at all."
Trowa: "It would be too hot wear a turtle neck."
Quatre: "I mean your face. Something bothering you?"
Trowa: ".....No."
Quatre: "If you have something to say to me then say it. There's only you and me here.
Trowa: "...I don't have anything to say. Get changed. Class is starting soon."
Quatre: "Honto desu ka? There isn't anything you're keeping from me? *turns around to face him* [really?] "I don't need you to protect me! If anythings going on just TELL ME." Come on Heero. This is your last chance. Trowa blew his. Don't lie to me too.
Trowa: ".....Don't get worked up over nothing. If you think there's something going on between me and Heero, you're wrong. *turns around to leave* Let's go. Everyone's waiting."
Quatre looked back at him. First with a hurt expression, then thoughtful, and finally blank. Alright Heero, if thats how you and Trowa both want it. I'll play along. But can you actually handle pretending to be Trowa? It's going to be more difficult than you think.
"Trowa..."
Trowa turned around with an annoyed look on his face, but Quatre wasn't fazed. He strode over with purpose in his step. When they were mere inches apart he stopped and looked straight into Trowa's eyes. Then using both hands to cup his face, pulled down until their lips met.
NANI!? What is he doing? Heero knew he had to move but was too shocked. It was Quatre who finally pulled away but not before Heero got the distinct feeling that he actually enjoyed that. Still in a haze, it took him a while to realize Quatre was saying something.
Quatre: "Don't forget....what you just said." *zero system smile*
~lunch~
Heero was extremely.... confused. First off, he didn't think Trowa and Quatre were actually a couple. But that was not what bothered him. What got him the most was the feelings he got when Quatre kissed him. He thought he would feel disgusted. The only person he ever thought of kissing was...! What am I going to do? Follow your feelings. That's what you've been taught remember? Yes I know, but I have too many feelings right now. And what if Trowa finds out that he....I..we.. He'll kill me. Definately kill me. I would kill me if I were him. What am I going to do? Should I tell him? Think Heero. And make it quick before...
"Trowa!"
Trowa: "Huh?"
Duo: "Oi. What's wrong with you didn't you here us? Earth to Trowa."
The 5 of them were seated around their designated table having lunch. Heero had been so emursed in thought that he forgot where he was.
Trowa: "Gomen. What did you say?"
Duo: *lets out big sigh* "Great. That's all we need right now."
Wufei: "What's bothering you."
Trowa: "..Iya. Betsu ni." [no, nothing much]
Heero: "..." *looks at Trowa*
Quatre: "....." *looks very innocent*
Wufei: "....." *suspicious look*
Duo: "Oi! Oi! Don't everyone get silent at once. Heero, Trowa, and Wufei, that's understandable but Quatre too? "
Quatre: "Hm? Gomen, gomen. I was just thinking."
Duo: "About what?"
Quatre: (very quietly so only Trowa, who is sitting beside him, can hear) "That there are better things to do with one's mouth besides talk."
Trowa: "..." *blushes*
Heero: "...." *gives Trowa the look* *look gets mean when he sees him blushing*
Duo: *looks from Trowa to Quatre* "Nani, nani? What did you say?"
Quatre: "...Sorewa...himitsu desu." [this is a secret]
Heero: "Soka." *gives Trowa the deathglare* [really]
Duo: "...?"
Wufei: "Hn.." *eyes Quatre*
Silence. Silence. More silence. Then.....
"HEERO!!"
Everyone but Quatre nearly fall out of their chairs.
Trowa and Heero: "Relena!?"
Quatre: "Relena-san. Isashiburi desu ne." [long time no see]
Duo: "Yo. Ojyosan." [hey. miss]
Wufei: "Onna! How does she always find him?"
Relena: "I wanted to see you again. Heero. May I sit down with you?"
Murmurs spread throughout the cafeteria. One because the Relena-sama actually came to their school, and two because she had the nerve to sit with the 5 of them. Relena just smiled and ignored everyone. Focussing entirely on Heero Yuy. Which infact, was Trowa Barton.
Relena: "I-desuka? Heero." [is that okay?]
Heero turned slightly pale, and looked at Trowa. Trowa looked back at Heero. Duo and Wufei looked at all three of them, and Quatre just watched with an amused look on his face.
Heero: "Do what you like." *turns to his food and starts eating*
Relena: *innocent smile* "I missed you." *edge closer* "I was afraid you went off to fight again."
Heero: *trying desperately to ignore her* "I don't need you to worry over me."
Relena: "So desu ne." *edge even closer* "But I can't help myself. I needed to see you again."
Heero:*tries to edge away* "......" *can't so is perched on the edge of the chair, balanced somehow*
Duo: *looking very annoyed at the display* "Hn!"
Wufei: "...Onna ka." [woman huh]
Trowa: "..."
Relena kept inching closer, and Heero just kept moving further away practically tipping the chair. Quatre had started out very amused at the senerio. If Trowa thought he could handle things by himself, then he wanted to see how well he could do it. But now Quatre's softspot hit him. Trowa looked so distressed. Eventhough he was in Heero's body, there was no way he could treat Relena the same way Heero does.
Quatre: *getting up* "Sorry to interupt Relena-san. But Heero and I have some business to attend to."
R,T,D,W same time: "Huh?"
Quatre: *smiles sweetly* "We promised some of the library staff that we would help them recatalog the books into the library computer."
Relena: "Why don't they do it themselves?"
Quatre: "It's better if we do it. Relena-san."
Wufei: "Hn. Good plan."
Duo: "Better let them go Ojyosan." [miss]
Trowa: "Soda na." [that's right]
Relena: "......Okay. But promise me you won't leave Heero."
Heero nodded and the two of them left. When they were out of earshot, both heaved a sigh of relief.
Heero: "Arigato. Quatre. But I don't remember making any promises."
Quatre: "So you'd rather stay there with Relena?"
Heero: "Iya. That's not what I mean...So where are we going now?" [no]
Quatre: "To the library. The others thought it was a good idea so we might as well get on it."
Heero: "Volunteer so that no one will suspect us if we work for a long time on the computers."
Quatre: "Exactly."
Heero: "...But why didn't you go with Trowa?"
Quatre stopped walking and turned back to Heero. Mimicking what he did earlier in the garden, he brushed a few strands of hair back behind Heero's ears, then traced his fingers down his face. All the while gazing into his eyes. After a long moment, Quatre whispered into his ear, "Because...I want to work with you."
Slowly he eased back, letting the words sink in. Heero's face showed complete shock.
Quatre: "You were the one who told me not to get too close to Trowa. So desuyo? Now, I'm granting you your wish." *zero smile*
