Disclaimer: this fic is very childish and contains very mild yaoi, sap, violence, AU, and language. Can't take it? This fic is not for you. It has practically nothing to do with the series. The characters are about 16 and it takes place where there are no mobile suits. Kind of like our world. It also might help to read Episode Zero... Changes pov between two characters. G-wing doesn't belong to me so don't sue me. C&C are also appreciated and I hope you enjoy this fic.

 

 

Boys Don't Cry by NaNa

Part Three

 

HEERO POV

"Shut up and stay still," I warned Duo as I closed the lid. I sat on the trashcan and continued to read my book despite his protest. Damned Baka. I continued to read as the herds of psychomaniacs stopped abruptly in front of me. Hn. I can take care of you morons.

"Heero, have you seen Duo? I believe that Yankee ran this way," Relena asked pompously which I counterattacked with my famous death glare.

Then Trowa noticed the trail of blood leading to the garbage can. "Heero, why are you sitting on a trashcan?"

My eyes narrowed and at that instance, I jumped up and kicked Trowa at his stomach.

"Trowa! Heero hit Trowa! Ow, the pain!" Quatre, another goon of Relena gasped. He fell to the floor clutching at his heart muttering something about his space heart.

"No one questions what I do. Or I'll simply going to have to kill you." Silence fell on the crowd. Relena was the only person that was stupid enough to talk. Stupid fuck.

"Heero, are you hiding Duo in there? Are you siding with the boy that's responsible for many retarded people in our country?" she squawked. She probably thought that she was talking to me very sweetly but if I hear that voice one more time, I'm gonna fucking kill someone. Too bad that I can't hit a girl.

DUO POV

"You are hiding him, I just know you are!" I heard Relena scream really high. Oi, shut the fuck up. That little bitch's squeak hurt my ears even though I was in the trashcan. It was one excruciating pain. I glanced at my wounds. It was still bleeding. I saw a dagger stuck deep in my skin. That bitch!

I bit hard and held my breath as I slowly pulled the dagger out. Blood squirted out of the fresh wound. I was going to bleed to death if I didn't fix myself soon. As I reached down at my leg in that little space, I felt something under my butt other than food scraps. It was a roll of Band-Aids. Heero must have put it in there, I thought. He's one smart kid. I chuckled softly despite the pain. I could kiss you, Heero, I thought as I wrapped my wounds. I didn't clean it out but this was good enough. At least I won't bleed to death before Heero finally gets me out of here.

Then I realized what a mess Heero was in right now. I cursed silently. Heero was in danger of being beat up-he was also in danger of losing his spot as the ruler of the class. Everything Heero was were in grave danger because he was trying to save me. I was so happy to finally have a person who would stand by my side once again, but then what good is it if he dies? I shuddered and prayed to God. Please, please don't let Heero die. I love him, God, I really do... He's such a... my prayer was interrupted by another Relena screech.

HEERO POV

"But why, Heero? Why are you helping him? I thought you cared about how I feel, how we feel! That boy is a traitor; he deserves his punishment! You were okay with it. Why protect him now? Why?"

Because I don't want to see his hair getting chopped off. Because I don't want to see his cross getting destroyed. Because he's not responsible for what happened. So many different answers floated up in my head but I couldn't find one solid answer.

Suddenly I saw Duo smiling at me full with love. I love him, I love Duo! That's why! I finally understood what was my problem. I loved Duo. That's what I wanted to say to that ugly piece of shit. But instead, my monotone replied, "I owe him. I believe in keeping my honors. Don't you Relena?"

"Yes, Heero! Honor and justice! That's what we men live for. Gee, you have my respect," Wufei went on and on. Relena looked annoyed. She did not appreciate her man talking while she wasn't. She was the one that should be talking to Heero not Wufei! So after analyzing the whole situation, Relena spoke with careful calculation. "Indeed, Heero, indeed. I believe in honors and that is why we must punish Duo. So Heero, how do you owe Duo?" I snarled at her. I do not owe him anything else. I only owe him my affection. I had to think quickly and make something up. "He gave me a cookie." Oh, that was just so convincing.

DUO POV

A cookie? A cookie? He was helping me because I gave him a cookie? So I'm not his friend. I guess I was never his friend. So he was just paying his debt-a debt that never existed. I just wanted to be his friend. I just wanted someone to care about me. I just wanted him to know that I loved him!

I heard Relena's shrill laugh. "I thought so. For a second, we all thought you liked him. Of course, Heero would never fall for his wicked tricks. Right Heero?"

HEERO POV

I bit my lips. I couldn't. I just could not tell the truth. As I cursed at my weakness I said, "no."

As Relena exploded into her victory cackle, I heard a familiar voice whisper, "Get off." I blinked couple of times when I felt Duo pushing at the lid. "Heero, get off. Now." His voice was faded, but it was firm and strong. I tasted blood in my lips. I slowly got up and the lid popped open. Duo slowly got out. Food scraps and junks were hanging all over him. He was smeared with blood. His cheeks were wet with still streaming tears. His face was flushed with mixed emotions. There were so much pain and sadness as if he lost everything. His braid swayed as the wind blew. I had hurt my Duo.

DUO POV

I did not know what I was feeling. I knew I was heartbroken. I lost another person. I had nothing left. I could not breathe, and my visions were blurry. Why me, God why me? First you take away Solo who was the first person that showed sincerity. Then you took away my only family. What did Father Maxwell and Sister Helen do? All they did was pray for a little orphan... Now when I finally thought that I had a friend, a lover, you took him away, too. Through my watery eyes, I saw Heero and his friend walking toward me. "Get away from me!" I screamed in despair. Everyone flinched; I saw Heero's expression hardening.

"Duo..." Heero's voice was cut off by another scream from me.

"Shut up! Just shut the fuck up! Leave me alone, you didn't have to do that. Get away from me for God's sake!" It hurts so much, Heero it hurts so much. I was willing to be yours... "Well, well, well. Looks like Yankee is showing his true form. Thought that Heero actually cared about you, didn't you? No one likes a reject like you. Hohoho..." Relena's stupid laugh was cut off when I punched her. Blood spewed out of her lips and couple of tooth fell out of her mouth as she dropped to the ground. Everybody gasped. I turned around and ran out of the schoolyard.

HEERO POV

"You fucking bastard! You get back here! Know your place, Yan..." I tackled Wufei and flung him against the wall as hard as I possibly could in one swift move when he tried to go after Duo. He passed out in a single stroke.

I glared at the rest of them and said, "Get out of here." Everyone started to move out. When I saw Quatre inching toward me, I growled at him; he ran away. Lunch was over when I got back to the class. The teacher never looked for Duo nor was she concerned with colorfully bruised students smeared with blood. She was only glad that everyone was quiet. Duo never came back to school that day.
