Trowa dropped Catherine on her bed.
"Onesan, wake up!" Trowa chucked the pillow on her face.
"Plop!"
"Ow! What, what? I paid for the drink!"
"Catherine! It’s me, Trowa." Catherine blinked couple of times before she recognized her environment. Catherine grabbed her head and moaned.
"Trowa, what happen?" Trowa snorted.
"No, you tell me what happened."
"What?" //What the fuck?// Trowa shook his head.
"You and Wufei! I saw all of it! He kissed you!" //What!?//
"Nani!?"
"Don’t you remember anything?" Catherine blinked and started to concentrate on her memory. //Hold on a second. I got upset before, so I drank a little bit… I guess I fell asleep… oh yeah! I had a dream! A dream about Wufei…// Catherine blushed. Trowa stared at her with curiosity. //It was a good dream – we ended up together… then…//
"Oh my God!" Catherine screamed and Trowa jumped. "I kissed him!" Trowa stared at her with bewildered look.
"You kissed him?"
"I was having a dream! A dream about ending up with my crush," Catherine blushed. "In the dream, toward the end, he lifted me up – and I kissed him!"
Trowa stared at Catherine. She wasn’t lying. //Wufei happened to pick up drunk Catherine when she was having that dream!//
"Damn it!" Catherine looked at Trowa with surprised look.
"What is it?"
"Nothing – nothing really," Trowa waved his arms and sighed. "So, who was this guy?"
"Who?"
"You know… the one you kissed in your dream."
"Oh… um…"
"Was it Wufei?" Catherine did not answer. Trowa started to laugh.
"I knew it! You liked him all the time didn’t you? God, I can’t believe it! Wait till Wufei hears about this!"
"No, don’t! Don’t tell him!" Trowa stopped jumping around and glanced at Catherine.
"Why?"
"I don’t want him to know. He’s really occupied these days – I don’t want to burden him."
"But Ca…"
"No! Just pretend that you never knew about it!" Catherine screamed. The room became still. Catherine grasped Trowa’s hand. "Please… Trowa… I don’t want to hurt anyone," Tears started to roll out of her eyes. "Please… I beg you." Trowa stared at Catherine for a minute then hugged her.
"Okay, I won’t tell anyone." Catherine looked up cautiously.
"You promise?"
"I promise. Now go to sleep." Catherine smiled.
"Good night, Trowa."
"Good night, Cat."
000000000000Trowa smiled as he walked down the street with a package. //Heero will love this cake!// Trowa couldn’t wait to see Heero. Trowa stopped in front of the dark alley. //I have to go through this alley to get to Heero’s apartment// Trowa gulped and continued on. Five seconds didn’t even go by when a voice called out.
"Oi!" Trowa flinched a bit but quickened his pace. A bulky looking red head grabbed Trowa and turned him around. "Hey, I’m talking to you, Uni-bang!" Snickers were heard around Trowa. Trowa was surrounded.
"Erm… what do you want?" The guy snorted. One of them snatched the package away from Trowa.
"What’s this? Ho, a cake! Nice!"
"Give it back!" Trowa reached for the cake but two of them grabbed Trowa and the red head kicked him in the stomach.
"What? I can’t hear you."
"Give it back…" Trowa muttered in pain. The red head struck him across the face.
"Give it back!? We are in charge here, you whore!"
"Please… give it back to me…" Trowa pleaded with tantalizing voice. The red snorted.
"Since you said please, I’ll let you go."
"You bastard! Give it back!" Trowa screamed and kicked him in the nut. The red head fell on the ground and moaned in pain. One of the gang picked up a pipe and hit Trowa in the leg. Trowa felt a bone crack.
"Asshole! You really want something shoved up your ass don’t you?" the red head snarled as he picked up a pipe. "Come on, boys. It’s play time."
They started to push and hit Trowa around. Trowa closed his eyes and bit his lips as he felt his bones crack one by one. Suddenly, a siren rang out and people started to shout. Someone shook Trowa.
"Oi, Trowa, open your eyes! It’s me, Duo!" Trowa opened his eyes slowly.
"Duo?"
"Yeah, you are okay." Trowa then spotted the smashed cake. Tears started to pour out of Trowa’s eyes.
"God! That was for Heero… I wanted to give it to him! It’s ruined, it’s all ruined!" Trowa cried in Duo’s arm. Duo’s stayed silent.
Heero watched from the apartment.
"Stupid. I hate cakes."
