Chapter
21
“I’m gonna take a shower,”
he said, getting up and sauntering to the bathroom.
“Can I come with you?” Heidi asked.
On that he hesitated. Duo
and Heidi together, that was safe, but Duo and Hilde together… He trusted him,
but not her. If he were to leave them alone now,
then she would surely try. He threw a swift glance to Duo. Duo’s eyes met his
in a reassuring wink.
“Sure, why not,” he said
curtly.
Heidi jumped out of the bed
and dashed towards the bathroom, grabbing Heero’s hand while she flew past him
and dragging him with her, leaving Duo and Hilde alone.
Duo squinted at the girl
next to him and noticed a somewhat melancholic expression on her face.
“Hey, why so gloomy?” he
smiled, softly pinching her cheek.
“Be honest with me here,
Duo,” Hilde said quietly, her eyes lowered.
“What?”
“I’ve lost you, haven’t I?”
“Lost me? What makes you
think that?” he laughed.
“Oh, come on now, Duo. I saw
what happened just now. That wasn’t just fucking, like Heidi called it. That
was making love. You are gay, Duo. And…”
“Hilde, I’m not gay,” he
interrupted her.
Smiling, she looked up at
him and stroked through the damp hair sticking
to his forehead. “Yes, you are. Maybe you can
tell me you’re bisexual, but if you’re really honest, can
you say it feels equally as good to make love to me as to Heero?”
For the first time in God
knows how long his vocal skills deserted him. If he was really honest? No. “You’re
right,” he said, after having looked deep in his own heart. “I do feel a lot
better with Heero.”
“You are homosexual, Duo,”
Hilde said. “And homosexuals don’t make love to girls.”
“Are you angry with me,
Hilde?”
“Yes, I’m angry with you.
You had a relationship with me for years and you didn’t mean any of it. But I
don’t hate you for it. I’m not a rancorous person. I can hate you as much as I
want, force you to live with me again, but you still would never forget him,
would you?”
“Hilde,
forgetting about him after all he has been through would be even more inhuman
than all the inhumanity Heero has ever shown in his entire life. Have you seen
those bruises? That’s what Doctor J did to him
for just a kiss. It holds a lot of risks for him
to be with me,” Duo said. “When Doctor J first found out we were in love, he
threw him upon some twisted rack of his, drugged
him, tortured him mentally and physically. So that’s why you have to understand, Hilde, that I can never stop loving him.”
A short silence hovered
between the two of them. “That’s bad,” Hilde said impressed. “I didn’t know
that. Poor guy, I feel so sorry for him.”
“Yes,” Duo said softly. “But
I’m not doing this out of pity, but out of respect and admiration. But above
all, out of true love.”
It was a truth painful to
accept for her. He knew he had hurt the girl with that, but only Heero could
give him what he really wanted and really needed. He didn’t use him for all his
games and fantasies, in spite of what some people might think. Fulfilling his
sexual needs might’ve been important, but his true love for him lay in sweet
whispers and caring words.
“I’m sorry if I’m ruining
your dreams and I don’t blame you if you hold a grudge against me now, but you
just have to face it. Heero and I are gonna stay together. And not even you can
change that. You can hate me if you want, but if you can’t live with that, Hilde, then I suggest you pack your stuff right now,
walk out of that door and never show your face here again.”
“Would you stop it already,
I said I’m not rancorous,” Hilde laughed lightly. “I understand, you belong to
him now.”
“Really?” Duo said
incredulously.
“Yes. It’s hard to accept
for me, but I don’t want us to break up fighting, Duo.” She meant the words she
said, though when she looked at his face, her heart gave a twitch, crumbled
down in the ashes of a fire that once used to burn so brightly. Why did he have
to be so damn good-looking anyway?
“You… you really are okay
with it?”
“Yes, I am,” she smiled,
while she started putting her clothes back on. “I’ll leave you two in peace. On
one condition.”
“Oh? What?”
“That you don’t forget to
invite me to your wedding.”
“Excuse me?! Wedding?!?! Did
I miss something here?” Duo exclaimed,
stupefied.
“No,” Hilde chuckled. “But
if you say that you love him so much, then you should marry him. Don’t you
think?” She got up and walked towards the door, waving him a negligent goodbye.
“So long. I’ll find my own way out.”
Marry him… Why didn’t he
think of that? Such a perfect idea, so simple, yet it hadn’t come to his mind until now. And then to hear it from Hilde, the woman
who undoubtedly was still desperate for him in spite of the fact that she had
shown herself relatively calm when she left just now. So then, from now on if
Heero would say yes, he could consider him as his future husband. It actually
made him smile, a sweet, dreamy smile that still lay on his lips when Heero and
Heidi were done taking their shower.
“What the hell are you
grinning about?” Heidi said.
Duo ignored her question
however, and sauntered to his lover with a mysterious, love-drunk gaze and
kissed him, tender, yet deep, while squeezing in his towel-covered buttocks,
making him moan slightly. “You smell good,” he purred into his neck.
“What’s with you?” Heero
asked.
“Nothing,” Duo sighed. “Absolutely
nothing.”
“Oh, I know,” Heidi said
from the bed, playing with the white towel that was wrapped around her body. “He
heard us and now he wants some of the good stuff too. Not true, Duo?”
Duo threw her a sideways glance. Been
fooling around in the shower, haven’t ya? “Maybe,”
he said. “But it’s just that… Hilde has given me quite an excellent idea.” He
heaved a happy sigh and kissed his sweetheart again, his hands softly tugging
at the towel around his hips. “Heero, I wanna make love to you. My sweetheart,
I love you so very much,” he whispered, pressing himself against him and
holding him ever so tightly. “Let’s make love, Hee-chan. I want you, wanna feel
you.”
Something wasn’t right here.
Why was he so affectionate all of a sudden, why all the smooching? Hee-chan?
Hadn’t used that nickname for weeks. Make love?
His standard word for that was either “fucking” or “ screwing”, maybe “humping”,
but when he actually used “making love”, then he’d better be on his guard.
“Duo, what exactly has Hilde
done to you?” Heero asked uncomfortably. “And where is she?”
“Yeah, now that you mention
it,” Heidi said, looking around. “She’s not here anymore. And her clothes are
gone too. Did she leave, Duo?”
Somewhat reluctantly, the
American abandoned the smooth neck he was spoiling and threw another glance at her, then turned back to his one and only. “Heero,
would you mind going outside for just a sec?” he said, pushing him back outside
without awaiting a response and shutting the door right in front of Heero’s
nose.
“Heidi, have I got news for
you,” he grinned.
Well,
I never! Locked out of my own bedroom! What were those
two hatching in there, what the hell were they talking about? So it wasn’t his
nature to go eavesdropping, but he wanted to know. Duo didn’t throw him out his
own room for no reason. They were discussing something, and sure as hell, he
was the subject. All he could hear though, was an occasional cheer from Heidi,
something like “Oh, that’s so great!” and “I’m so happy for you!”. Later on he
could still hear Duo saying “So from now on you’ll have to start looking for
someone else” and then Heidi “I understand. I’ll leave you two on your own. At
least until the…!”
“Quiet dammit! He’ll hear
us! I don’t wanna tell him yet! It has to be a surprise.”
Oh,
surprise? What surprise? His curiosity was seriously challenging him, bugging him, almost to the point of kicking in his own
door. He hated surprises. All the surprises he’d got up till now had been
unpleasant ones... From Doctor J. However, he
was aware that Duo would never give him something he wouldn’t like. Yet, he was
still very skeptical
concerning surprises. Certainly when it’s the kind of surprise which you know
you’re gonna get *something*, only don’t know what or when. He couldn’t stand
the tension bound to go along with it.
Too late, he heard the
doorknob being pushed down, and as the door jerked open, he quickly
straightened again, the knowledge that he had been caught eavesdropping clearly
readable in his eyes. On the soft carpet, Duo’s bare feet had been inaudible to
him.
“D-Duo…” he stammered
nervously.
“Hee-chan? Why, you wicked
little devil,” Duo said on a slightly reproaching tone, crossing his arms in
front of his chest. “Have you been listening? Okay, speak up. What have you
heard?”
“Well, not much. Only that
Heidi was very happy about one thing or another, but also that she’d have to
start looking for someone else,” Heero confessed, fidgeting a bit. “And also
that you have some kind of a surprise for me.”
Narrowed eyes and a gauging
look. “That’s all? You didn’t hear why Heidi was so happy and why she should
start looking for someone else and what that surprise is?” Duo said, sticking a
threatening finger out to him.
“No.”
“Honestly?”
“Yes.”
Duo still considered him for
a few moments, contemplating whether he should believe him or not. Eventually
he dropped his finger and put on a happy grin. Whew, he deemed it plausible
enough. “Okay, then you can come in again,” he smiled, moving aside to let
Heero enter. As the Japanese brushed past him, he could hear him grumbling
something like “Can’t even come into my own room whenever I want to.”
“Oh, don’t be angry with me
now, Hee-chan.”
Oh,
can I ever stay angry with you, Duo?
“I only want to see you
happy, that’s all,” Duo said, flinging his arms
around Heero’s shoulders from behind and strolling their way to the bed again
like that. “So, wanna make luuuv now?”
“No Duo, first you have to
tell me something.”
“Since when are you making
up excuses not to screw me?” Duo said, letting go of him and giving Heero the
space to flop himself down on the mattress.
“Tell me, that plan of
yours. How are things gonna go?”
“Yeah, tell us Duo,” Heidi
said, her interest awakened too now.
Duo sat
down between the two of them, beaming with self confidence and hope. “Well,
actually it’s quite simple,” he said. “We let the old man walk in on us.”
“What?!” Heero snapped with
a sudden quiver in his voice, recollecting his disastrous dream. “Have you lost
your mind?”
“Don’t worry, Hee-chan. It
can’t go wrong. I’ve asked Quatre, Trowa and Wufei. They’re gonna help us. They’re
all gonna be there.”
“What do you mean? We’re
just gonna do it in our office, make sure Doctor J hears it so he’s furious and
will kill me, and the rest is just gonna stand and
watch?!” Heero shouted.
“Well, we’re not gonna
actually *do* it, just make-believe. I mean, it can’t be that hard. Just scream
each other’s name a few times and he’ll know enough,” Duo calmly explained,
ignoring Heero’s growing despair and fury.
“Okay, but Duo. Read my
lips! He is going to kill me!” Heero said, clutching Duo’s shoulders and
pronouncing each word pointedly.
“Oh, you really think he’ll
get the chance to do that? Heero, I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again, he’s
not gonna harm you more than he already has! I
won’t let him, he’ll have to blow me to smithereens first!” Duo reassured him.
“I’m afraid, Duo. I’m
afraid. It’s not gonna work out. Something will go wrong, I can feel it, I just
know it! Coz that’s what he will do, Duo, blow you to smithereens,” Heero
sighed, his breath quickening to an ominous rate. The boy shuddered visibly and
Duo understood the extreme terror in his voice and knew by the fact that he
openly admitted that he was scared that he had to take him seriously. He had been through too much in his young life to
just trust someone.
“It’s alright. Just calm
down, I don’t want to have you hyperventilating again,” Duo said in a soft and
caring tone, holding Heero close against him and soothingly rubbing his back. “We
won’t let you down, Heero. It’s the five of us against one crazy, old, one-handed
lunatic.”
“I’ll be there too,” Heidi
carefully said. “Whatever you say Duo, I’ll do it.”
“See Heero? Six against one,
he doesn’t stand a chance. Me, Trowa, Quatre and Wufei have thought up a plan
while he kept you locked up. The moment he walks in, Wufei will throw his sword
to his feet, and then it’s just plain strategy. I will lunge for his coat and
snatch it off, Trowa will pin his arms behind his back, Wufei will get hold of
his feet and Quatre, and you too Heidi, will keep a gun pointed at his temples
if he tries to resist, and by God, he will. In
the mean time I'll look for his tranquilizers in his coat, then we
just kill him and he won’t be able to blow me to
smithereens. It will be exactly the other way around. There’s no need to be
scared. Okay Heero? Just calm down.”
“Kill him?” Heero yelled
startled. “But Duo, that’s punishable!”
“Don’t you want him dead
then, Heero?”
“I… There’s nothing I want
more,” Heero whispered as his mind seemingly found it very pleasant to present
him a compilation of twenty years of misery and pain. “But I don’t want them to
throw us in jail either.”
“Nobody will, Heero. He has
used and abused you, so many times nearly killed
you, he doesn’t deserve any better. The police
know what kind of jerk he is, they’re willing to
close their eyes to this. We can kill him,
Heero.”
Heero looked at him and let
his brain digest his words, until it came to one
conclusion. “That’s corruption, Duo.”
“Yes, that’s corruption,”
Duo sighed. “But he has been corrupt for his entire life. I agree, training you
for the war was justified, but not how he trained you. For once, Heero, for
once we can be corrupt too.”
It took some convincing, but
eventually Heero seemed to agree to it and he
snuggled close against his lover.
“Thank you for doing this
for me,” he murmured quietly against Duo’s naked chest.
Duo gave a little sigh and
placed a soft kiss on the mass of Heero’s freshly washed hair. “If I didn't do this for you, then I wouldn’t be worthy of
your love, sweety,” he said.
Well now, wasn’t that sweet?
“You know Duo, I will be glad when it’s finally all over. I don’t want to be a
Perfect Soldier anymore, don’t want to take any more lives. It’s time to stop.
Only one more time, one more murder. Yeah, Monday. Monday we will kill him... and the Perfect
Soldier inside of me.”
“Sure thing,” Duo said.
“Duo?”
“Yes?”
“Is it true that we will go
to hell?”
Duo looked at him with
questioning eyes. “Why would we go to hell?” he asked.
“Because we’re gay. Doctor J
says that. He says the bible says so. Is that true? Does the bible really say
so?”
“Use your cute little head
for two seconds, Hee-chan. How the hell should I know, I who have never touched
the big holy book in my entire life? And even *if* it was true, I wouldn’t give
a fuck about it.”
“Aren’t you afraid to go to
hell then?”
“Honey, as long as you’re
with me, I don't care where I go. The situation
would be far worse if you were in heaven and I was in hell, or vice versa.”
“Oh yeah? Why?”
“Love, I still want to be
able to fuck you when I’m dead.”
Heero laughed, and Duo
smiled to see him laughing.
“You know, actually I don’t
believe in a life after death,” Duo said. “Heaven or hell. Heaven's the clouds and hell is the fire deep within the
earth. There is no such thing as angels or devils, only people can be sweet as
angels or malicious as devils.”
“Really? Then what am I?”
“Ehm… I don’t know. Heidi,
what do you think?” He turned his head to the girl, but stared at the sheets
instead. “Heidi, where are you?”
“Her clothes are still here,”
Heero noticed. “She has to be around.”
“I think it just got to
corny for her and she hightailed. I already found it remarkable that she didn’t meddle.”
Heero laughed and hugged his
boyfriend close. “You know, my dog’s name isn’t Nine at all.”
“Oh?”
“No. I just give him a
number because Doctor J wants that. I also use that number to call him because
otherwise he would get angry. Giving a name to the mongrel is a token of
affection, he says and then I would have to
shoot him. And I wouldn’t want that. He's such a
beautiful animal. A Saint-Bernard.”
“That would be a shame
indeed,” Duo nodded.
“Only when I’m on my own at
home, when I’m sure Doctor J can’t hear me, I call him by
his real name. Otherwise it just keeps on reminding me how many dogs I’ve
already killed.”
“And what is his real name?”
“Rosha.”
“That’s nice.”
Duo let go of Heero and lay on his back on the bed. “Fly with me to the
rainbow, Heero” he said softly.
“I will, Duo,” Heero smiled.
“Duo?”
“Yeah?”
“Do you still feel like
making love?”
“You
bet ya!” he cried elated, and he sent Heero’s white towel flying through
the air.
