"Change" Chapter 26
Quatre pulled away from Zechs as a deep shade of red formed on his pale cheeks.
"Did I do something wrong?"
"No. I... It's just that..."
"What? Do you just like girls or something?"
"I... I love... someone else."
Zechs frowned. "Oh. Gomen. I didn't mean... Who else?"
"You won't remember him."
"Where is he now?"
"I... I don't know. He's away on a mission I think."
"Does he return your sentiments?"
"No... I don't think so. I think he loves... someone else."
"Than why... I mean if he doesn't want you... am I just not attractive?"
Quatre's cute little face contorted in frustration and pain as he choked back tears from all
the stress of everything. Zechs gently wrapped his arms around him and held him as he cried
and cried.
"Fei?"
"Hai. Try not to speak to much till you heal some more."
Duo looked up at Wufei with big puppy dog eyes.
"Get me out of here."
"You need to stay in bed."
"Please. I promise to stay in bed in my room. You know I n..."
"You never lie. Try to stay silent, and I will unstrap you and carry you..."
"I can walk."
"Don't argue with me. You're getting your way."
"Hai."
Wufei unstrapped Duo and carried him up the stairs.
Zechs gently kissed Quatre on the head as he held the crying boy.
"I'm sorry...*sniff* ...It's just..*sniff* Everything is going so terrible right now
and...*sniff* I'm sure you don't need this...*sniff* I mean you can't even
remember...*sniff* and you just lost...*sniff*
"Shhhhh... It's ok. Shhhh..."
Zechs gently caressed Quatre's back as he held him.
"No, I shouldn't be..."
"Shhh. Just relax. It's ok. I understand."
Quatre missed Trowa so bad. He wished he would have told him how he felt when he had the
chance, and now, he wasn't sure if he would ever see him again.
Trowa leaned against the wall of his room. He missed Quatre sooo bad. He wished Quatre
felt the same. This mission was slowly driving him crazy and thinking about Quatre wasn't
helping. Trowa was really getting tired of pretending to be someone else. The people who
claimed to be his friends in the place made him sick to his stomach. He had witnessed
things since he took this mission that he figured no one should ever have to see, and his
‘friends' were responsible for most of it. He wanted to run far far away, but he couldn't.
He needed to stay and spy to find out how Oz planned to take advantage of Releana's death
and *what* exactly was their new perfect soldier training. He was almost done. Just a
little longer and he would have all the necessary information. Then, he would be free to
return to Quatre and finish their talk.
Wufei is still unconscious from nosebleed blood loss from all those kisses. He is lying on
the floor, and Duo is poking him with a stick and laughing.
