Heero's Decision by Agent Midnight
Standard disclaimers apply
"Heero, no."
"Leave me alone, Duo."
"Heero, this is a mistake.."
"........."
"Think about what you're doing."
"Duo, shut-"
"Put it down, Heero!"
"No! I have to...I can't-"
"Heero, don't do it."
"Duo, get out of here."
"I'm not leaving you like this."
"I don't want you to get hurt."
"I'm worried about you, you bastard!"
"Duo, I need to do this."
"Why? Tell me why you want to finish like this?"
"Because, it's just...all..so...hard.."
"Heero, I can help you."
"No....you can't.."
"Yes, I can..and I will."
"Duo, you don't understand.."
"MAKE me understand."
"I can't live life the way I do..."
"...WHY?"
"Duo, shut the hell up!"
"......."
"I'm trying to talk here, and you go on running that big mouth
of yours...-"
"I do not have a big mo-NO, Heero! Stop!"
"Then let me speak."
"Go ahead."
"My life will never be complete as it is."
"So, you want to go and-"
"Yes. I need to."
"But, what about US, Heero? You and I? What about your friends?
Huh? Have you ever thought that maybe we would suffer for this? This
is going to change everything!"
"Duo, my relationship with you has noth-"
"It has everything to do with this, you freak!"
"See if I ever-"
"HEY, shut the fuck up. YOU WILL be here when we make love tonight,
as God is my witness!!"
"I need-"
"-You need nothing."
"....if I do this, Duo...I will be free."
"......"
"......"
"Heero, you shouldn't have to do something this awful to gain
freedom. You already are free, you just don't realize it."
"Duo, why are you stopping me?"
"Because I love you..can't you see that?"
"No, Duo, I have to..."
"Heero, I'm serious..put it down!"
"...."
"Goddamnit, no!!"
"Duo....."
"Heero, this is your life we're talking about here. This is
not a fucking joke!"
"Duo, leave...I'll do this with or without you in the room...so,
you might as well save yourself the turmoil."
"Heero, your life...don't throw it away like this."
"I love you, Duo...now, please...get out."
"No...no! I'm not leaving you alone..you're being so stupid
about this!"
"Don't you want me to be free, Duo?"
"But..."
"Don't you want my pain to go away?"
"But..."
"I would do anything for you, Duo."
"But...."
"And I thought you would do anything for me."
"But...."
"And if you truly loved me, you would leave this room right
now, and not come in until i'm free."
"Heero....please....no.."
"Duo, do you love me?"
"...Yes.."
"Then get the fuck out."
*******
Duo stepped out of his and Heero's bedroom, and he closed the door
behind him. Clenching his eyes shut, the braided youth leaned back
against the door and waited. A shaky sigh escaped his lips as all
he heard was silence for five agonizing minutes.
The silence was suddenly painfully broken as a gunshot echoed from
the bedroom.
The air left Duo's lungs as he stood there, the gunshot ringing in
his ears. A split second later, he spun around and flung the door
open. The sight in there brought him to his knees.
"Oh, god..."
Duo threw himself foward on his knees and brought Heero's body into
his arms.
"Oh, god, Heero...why?"
Duo took the gun from Heero's hands, snapped the safety on, and chunked
it across the room. The gun slammed into the wall and fell carelessly
to the carpeted floor.
"Heero..."
Silence.
"You didn't have to do it..."
A sigh.
"Yes, I did."
"Heero, why?"
"Because you hated it.."
Duo stared at the broken remains of Heero's silver laptop, a bullet
hole in the center of the keyboard, probably damaging it beyond repair.
A shiver raced up and down his spine as he held his lover.
"I did hate it..but, you loved it."
"Duo, I love you more...and when I told you I'd do anything
for you...I meant it. You always hated my laptop, because it got a
lot of my attention...but the war's over now...and I don't need it
anymore."
"Heero..."
"Plus..I saw one that was really nice in the store.."
"WHAT?"
"Yeah, I'm thinking of buying it."
Duo scoffed and pushed Heero away from him, sneering at the Japanese
youth. Heero allowed a small smile to cross his features.
"It's fast enough for you to play your games on it."
Duo's eye twitched.
"...and it has internet..."
Duo's lips began to curve in a smile.
"..so, you can look at your naughty anime porn."
Duo grinned all-out at that.
"So...can we buy it?"
Duo pretened to think about that question.
"Of course we can, Heero."
Heero smiled, then turned to look at his old laptop.
"She had a good life, Heero."
Heero nodded.
"It was her time to go."
Heero stood up, pulling Duo with him, and they started to walk out
into the hallway together.
"Since we're going to go buy you a new toy, Heero, maybe I should
free myself from my obsession..I mean, gee, I should get a new toy,
too."
The two young men gazed back into the room at Duo's portable cd player.
The old, unstable, black thing stared back cheerfully from its place
on the nightstand.
"It would only seem fair if you were to get something new, too."
Heero commented with a smile.
"...." Duo stared at Heero.
"But, you'd have to put that old girl out of her misery first."
Heero jerked his head at Duo's prized possession.
With a sly smile, Duo slipped back into the room.
Heero pulled out his wallet and checked his supplies: credit cards
and money. He and Duo were set for their trip to the store.
Bang.
Duo stepped out of the room again, smile a little wider.
"They'll be happy where they're going."
"Yeah..they'll be together, too."
Duo grinned at Heero, then he grabbed the Japanese boy's hand. They
started down the long hallway.
"So...you already agreed to letting me look at porn on your
new computer, right?"
Heero smiled slightly.
"I only agreed to anime porn."
Duo huffed, squeezing Heero's hand.
"No fair.."
"What? If you need some young thing to look at naked, you can
look at me."
Duo laughed.
"Ok, deal. Anime porn only."
Heero cleared his throat.
"..Exceptions can be made if I'm in the room with you."
