With all the chaos that was happening, Duo didn't know where the gun shot was coming from. All he knew was that, suddenly, Heero appeared right by his side.
And a dot of red was quickly spreading on the young Japanese man's chest...
With a loud gasp, Duo jolted wide awake. His hold on his lover's waist tightened ever so slightly, as his head tried to bury deeper into the warm chest on which it rested .
That woke Heero; one of his hands automatically grasping the long rope of hair slung down Duo's bare back.
"What's wrong, Duo?" The dark haired youth slurred sleepily.
The long haired man just shook his head mutely; all the while, a finger was tracing patterns on the scar of a recently healed gun wound that was so very close to his lover's strongly beating heart.
Heero took hold of his lover's hand, and kissed it softly, "You know I do not regret getting hurt for saving you, right?"
Swallowing hard, the American said quietly, "I know, but what if..."
Heero looked directly into those violet eyes that he loved so much, finger on those pink lips preventing another word from being pronounced. He said firmly. "I promise you. I'll come back to you no matter what happens, for as long as I live."
The Japanese youth removed his finger and kissed his lover gently, "It doesn't matter how hopeless and impossible it might seem, I will come back to you, even if I have to crawl back."
The strong arms that were holding Duo's fair body tightened, "You must believe that I will not leave you willingly, just as I always believe in you."
The lovers exchanged a heated kiss, to seal their promise to each other.
