"...I'll go ask Quatre and Trowa...."
Duo slowly pulled himself up and headed to the door. He was pretty confident about Quatre, but not sure about Trowa. But he really didn't want to go alone to the party.
He closed the door behind him and reluctantly walked towards his friends' room. He wasn't sure if he wanted to do this... But there were no other choice.
He stopped in front of their door. He breathed in deeply and knocked.
"Who is it?"
Quatre asked gently while approaching the door.
"...It's Duo."
"Duo!?"
Quatre quickly opened the door, his aquamarine eyes opened wide with amazement.
"...Uh.. yeah.. What's up?"
Duo blinked his eyes, surprised at Quatre's reaction. Was there something he did?
"Uhh... Sorry, Duo,..." Quatre smiled and let him in, "..it's just that.. you knocked..."
"I always knock!"
Duo crossed his arms, offended. Quatre closed the door, shaking his head.
"No, no. I know you always knock the door... But you've actually waited until I opened it..."
Duo opened his mouth to argue, but no words came out. Quatre was right. Duo did always knock people's door, but opened it right afterwards.
"...Is there something wrong?"
Quatre smiled at Duo who sat on the chair near the window. Duo really liked Quatre and Trowa's clean room. Not that his room was messy, but the sunlight always seem to favor this room and the light blue curtains and antique furniture filled the room with richness and warmness his room didn't have.
"...It's because of Heero... He hates it when I buy unnecessary objects for our room.. I wish he was a little more like Trowa...." Trowa wasn't interested in home improvements, but he willingly helped Quatre in everything he does. Duo suddenly lifted his head and looked left to right.
"I brought some tea and cookies..."
Quatre returned with snacks for his friend. He was always ready for company and served them nice little treats.
"Thanks Quatre," Duo took the teacup in his hands, "but where's Trowa?"
"Oh, he went shopping."
Quatre sipped his tea and sat across from Duo. Duo munched on the tasty cookies.
"Don't you guys usually go together?"
"Yeah, but today he went with Catherine."
"I see.."
Duo continued munching and thought about the party. He figured Quatre wouldn't want to go partying without Trowa, but Duo didn't want Quatre to be alone in his room all day.
Duo suddenly had an idea.
"Quatre! Let's go shopping!!"
Quatre almost coughed out his tea. He placed his cup on the saucer and wiped his mouth.
"..What?"
"Shopping! You and me! Come on, it'll be fun!!"
Duo gulped his tea and stood up, excited. He took Quatre's hand and pulled him towards the door.
"Wa.. Wait.... Duo," Quatre pulled against Duo, "...but didn't you have an essay due in two days?"
Duo almost fell down. He turned to Quatre and sighed.
"...Did Heero tell you that?"
Quatre nodded. Duo sighed for more.
"You're too kind, Heero..."
"Quatre, I can finish that tomorrow. You need to go out once in a while. Now come on. Trowa's out on a date, why can't you?"
Duo crossed his arms, waiting for an response. Quatre thought for a while, and smiled.
"Let me get my jacket."
"Quatre?"
Trowa came back and entered the dark room. He couldn't detect any presence. He slowly turned on the lights and took off his coat. He sat on the bed to relax when he noticed there was a piece of note on the small tea table.
____________________________________________
I have kidnapped Quatre for today. Don't know what time we'll be back, but don't worry. We'll have lots of fun! Wish you could've come with us..... Oh well, your loss.
Bye bye* ^_^
Duo

"I guess so.."
Trowa smiled and imagined how tired the two would be when they get back. He decided to make some coffee, a cup extra than usual.
The End
____________________________________________________________________
This ending was the shortest one... It's because the writer got lazy...
No. The truth is, I couldn't see all three boys going to the party together.... So I've decided not to. Instead... it kinda turned out like 2x4? In a way?
