Chapter 2: Chances
~3 Months Ago~
Quarte stood in the kitchen waiting on the microwave popcorn. His eyes wandered to his fellow ex- piolet who sat on the couch flipping threw the channels. Quarte smiled as Duo started to unconsciously play with his long braid. Quarte loved it when Duo played with his hair. How much Quatre longed to free Duo's hair from the ever present braid and run his fingers though the silky hair. Quatre sighed and shook his head to rid the arousing images that stirred in his minds-eye.
Quatre leaned on the counter with his head cupped by his hands and stared at Duo. Duo had now flopped across the couch and lay on his back. Quatre sucked in a breath as Duo raised his hands above his head and dangled them over the arm of the couch. Duo's black t-shirt had raised and showed off his belly button and part of his lean stomach. Duo snatched up his braid again and began to play with his hair once more. Quatre stared at his friend with longing, he nearly jumped out of his skin when the microwave signaled it's cycle had ended. Peeling his eyes from Duo, Quarte retrieved the popcorn and poured it into a bowl and went to join Duo on the couch. Seeing Duo's eyes were closed and seemingly unaware of his presence, Quatre felt a sudden urge of playfulness. Quatre put the popcorn on the side table and unceremoniously sat on Duo's stomach. Duo coughed and flew up, he pounced on Quatre and tickled him. Threw their laughter Duo said,
"You know Q-man you could have just ASKED me to move." Quatre smiled,
"Yeah but it wouldn't have been as funny." Quatre got up and sat beside Duo on the couch, the popcorn was placed between them. The put in the movie and watched in silence. Half way though Quatre reached into the bowl for more popcorn and his hand brushed with Duo's. Quatre sucked in a breath and the contact. Duo looked at him,
"You ok Q-man?" Quatre swallowed,
"Yeah I'm fine," and smiled nervously.
They continued to watch the movie. Quatre often stole looks at Duo who was wrapped up in the action of the movie. At the end of the movie Quatre moved to get more popcorn. Duo's hand also went into the now empty bowl. Their hands brushed over each other once more, grazing over the buttery kernels left in the bowl. Quatre quickly withdrew his hand as if burned.
"I'm sorry Duo," he gushed while his face stained pink.
"Hey nothing to worry about buddy. That was some great popcorn, the movie was cool too." Quatre's head drooped, he was mildly upset that Duo didn't take their hands brushing as more than an accident.
"Hey Q-man no need to get upset, I still have one piece left." Duo held up the last remaining piece of popcorn.
"Duo, it's alright you can have it."
"No Quatre, you have it, I insist." Grinning, Duo stuck out his hand with the popcorn offering resting between his fingers. Quatre decided to be daring. A mischievous smile graced his lips and he held Duo's hand with his own. He brought his face closer to Duo's hand.
"Q-man what-" Duo was cut short as Quatre snatched up the popcorn with his teeth. Duo gaped as Quatre began to sensually suck the butter and salt from his fingers. Quatre smiled to himself at the reaction to Quatre sucking on Duo's fingers. Once finished with Duo's fingers, he flipped Duo's hand over and kissed the back of the hand. Quatre looked up to Duo with a smile on his face. The smile quickly fell at the look on Duo's face. His eyes were wide and his mouth was wide open. ‘In shock? No in disgust' Quatre thought, as he fought back tears. He bowed his head mumbling,
"I'm so sorry Duo," then ran from the living room. He didn't stop until he reached his room on the other side of the large safehouse.
Quatre leaned his back on his door after assuring it was locked. He slid down the door and rested his head on his knees. ‘Quatre how could you be so stupid? He probably thinks you sick and perverted.' Sobs racked his small frame. A couple minutes later a small knock sounded at the door. Quatre ignored it. The person knocked again, ‘Probably some maid,' he thought.
"Please leave me be." He replied quietly. He heard the maid pause for a moment then walk down the hall. Quatre moved to his bed and began to mutter to himself about how foolish he was. How was he going to face Duo now?
Lost in his thought, Quatre didn't notice the sounds of picking coming from his door. His bedroom door opened and Quatre jumped from his bed ready to face the intruder. Quatre's breath caught in his throat as he faced the intruder.
"Duo?" he breathed. The two bobby pins in Duo's hands were placed in his pocket.
"Sorry for picking your lock Quatre, but I knocked and you told me to go away. Well you were a lot more polite. I need to talk to you." Quatre let out the breath he just realized he was holding. Crestfallen, Quatre motioned to the chair at his desk and then took a seat on his bed. Of all the dreams and wishes he had of what it would be like having Duo in his room, this situation never came to mind. Duo took a seat on the bed next to Quatre much to Quatre's surprise.
"Look Duo I'm sorry for what-" Duo pressed his finger to Quatre's mouth.
"Hush." Quatre nodded. Duo removed his finger. Duo seemed at a lost for words for once. They sat in silence for a while.
:Quatre?" Duo broke the silence, startling Quatre for a moment.
"Yes Duo?" Quatre replied innocently.
"Why did you do that?" Duo asked quietly. Quatre sucked in a breath. What could he say that would salvage his friendship with Duo? Quatre was about to reply but Duo interrupted,
"I mean I know why you did that, but why me?" All the air rushed out of Quatre's lungs. He looked up at Duo who seemed to have some pink rising to his cheeks.
"Why you?" Quatre repeated.
"Yes, I mean, ah man, I dunno," Duo looked at his hands as if they would help him, he continued, "I thought I was the only one who swung ‘that' way." Duo's cheeks were now a dark crimson. Quatre's mouth dropped open. He was so happy that Duo was also gay. Quatre bust out laughing. Duo stiffened thinking Quatre was laughing at him. Quatre hugged Duo while still laughing.
"That's what I love about you." Duo was still confused. Quatre composed himself. He sat crossed legged on his bed facing Duo.
"So Duo how long have you known that you like guys instead of girls?" Duo came back to life. ‘Quatre is gay too,' his mind supplied. Duo shrugged,
"Oh I dunno," then smiled, "How long have you known you were?" Quatre smiled,
"Since I met you, I mean you guys." Quatre grinned at Duo and raised his hand to Duo's face, "Duo you are so beautiful." Duo blushed,
"Thanks, I guess I knew the moment I met Heero." Quatre's hand dropped from Duo's face.
"Oh?" he muttered. ‘This couldn't be, Duo can't be in love with Heero, no' Quatre thought as his hopes began to falter. Duo smiled and sighed,
"Yeah there was-is something about Heero that does something to me. I Dunn Q-man, but I think I might love him." Quatre slowly moved that hand, that once touched Duo's face, over his own heart.
"L-Love him?" He stuttered out.
"Yeah I think I might." Duo's shoulders slumped, "But then I don't think Heero is like that. I doubt he liked boys more than his likes girls." Duo let out a sad laugh, "Well Heero doesn't like anyone, none the less me." Quatre knew how Duo felt, he knew his love for Duo was unrequited. Quatre placed his hand on Duo's shoulder,
"If you need anyone to talk to Duo, I'm always here for you." Duo smiled at Quatre. Quatre began to close the distance between Duo and himself. Quatre's lips were mere inches from Duo who was also leaning towards Quatre, when his bedroom door was roughly pushed open. Duo and Quatre broke apart.
"Duo come here now." The drunken form of Heero demanded from the door. Duo's eyes lit up,
"Heero!" Duo bounced up from the bed, waved goodbye to Quatre and thanked him, then left the room with Heero. Heero led Duo to their shared room.
