High School Prom Whore Part 24
Heero was walking through the city centre. There wasn't anything to do. Duo hadn't been seen in two weeks and Relena had been helping Heero recover from the shock of prom two weeks before. He sighed as he looked round the shops and at the people walking by with no idea about how horrible life could be.
"Heero?"
Heero turned round and saw Noin and Sally walking towards him. He paused long enough for them to catch up with him before he continued to walk, one girl on each side.
"It's been a while. How are you?"
"Coping."
"That's good to hear."
"How's Duo?" Heero asked Sally, knowing that she had been to see him in hospital. Heero hadn't, he had stayed away from Duo still in fear of Treize and what Duo thought of him.
As if she felt his pain Sally smiled at him. "He wants to see you. He's been asking none stop for you."
"He's back at home now. Still in bed and complaining loudly. Poor Quatre has to put up with a bed ridden Duo."
Heero nearly laughed at the news.
"Pay him a visit. He could do with seeing you." Sally said.
"And I have news for him, which you can deliver for me." Noin said putting her own nose in.
"I'll go see him now. I have nothing better to do."
"Great. Say hi from me and tell him, Treize is gone. Disappeared without trace. Bye!"
"See ya round Yuy."
Heero watched the two girls disappear in to Top Shop before he continued down the street heading towards the bus stop. It was weight off his shoulders that Treize had gone. Now maybe he could sleep at night. "Green Terrance Lane." He told the bus driver handing out money.
"75 pence please."
Heero handed the money over and headed to sit at the back of the bus.
About ten minutes the bus pulled to a stop at the end of Duo's road and Heero climbed out, thanked the driver and headed up the road to the large white house. Heero stared at the family playing on the large front lawn. "Heero! Nice to see you. How are you?"
Heero glared at Quatre before relaxing.
"Better."
Quatre nodded and then looked back at the lawn.
"Don't know what's worst helping Jackel look after these three or listening to Duo moan about laying in bed."
Heero gave a weak chuckle.
"Any news?" Quatre asked quietly.
"He's gone."
"Noin?"
"She told me."
"She has inside cover on that sort of thing. Well, Duo's in his room. Good luck."
Heero blinked.
"Good luck?"
"You're never seen Duo ill. This is ten times worst then the flu he had when he was 13. You need luck, and lots of it."
Heero nodded and headed indoors and up towards Duo's bedroom.
He knocked on the door.
No answer.
He knocked a bit louder.
But didn't get any answer.
Then he just pushed open the door to reveal Duo laid out on the bed, headphones in, eyes closed and head moving softly in time to the beat. The long strands of chestnut hair laid over the bed in all directions. Heero walked forward quietly and turned the music up to max.
Duo yelped and pulled the plugs out of his ears very quickly. He glared round the room until his eyes rested on Heero who was fighting not to laugh.
"Bastard." He hissed, tossing the head phones away. Heero turned the music off and walked to the chair by the desk and sat down.
"Good Morning."
"What you want?" Duo grumbled, moving under the covers so that only his head pocked out.
"Treize has left town."
Duo sat up.
"When?"
Heero shrugged.
"Noin told me this morning. She didn't say. Her and Sally were shopping."
"K. Thanks."
Duo snuggled back under the covers and closed his eyes.
"Any thing else?"
"No." Heero said. "Just came to see how you are."
"I'm bored out of my mind! I hate being ill and I hate this even more, there is nothing wrong with me but I still have to lie in bed! It's so unfair!"
Heero smiled.
"Same here."
Duo opened his eyes.
"You holding up?"
"Relena is helping."
"I'm sorry."
"For what?"
"Everything."
"It wasn't your fault."
"And it wasn't yours."
"Can I still be your boyfriend?"
Duo raised an eyebrow.
"You still want me?"
"I still love you."
"Even after everything I have done?"
"Even after everything you have done."
"I love you too Hee-chan."
"Don't call me that."
"Okay. I won't, Hee-Koi."
Duo smirked and Heero shook his head.
"Typical"
Relena smiled at Dorothy.
"Don't worry about it. What I did was wrong."
"You thought you were protecting Heero."
"But all I was doing was making it worst. I was such an idiot."
"And a bitch."
"Shut up!"
"Sorry. Relena you aren't that bad you know."
"Really?"
"Really, really."
"Thanks Dot."
"You're welcome."
