love some feedback... please??? *chibi eyes*


                                                "Change" Chapter 28 

Duo squeezed his eyes shut tighter, not wanting to know who had just embraced him and was 
now holding him.  He knew that if he opened his eyes and found out who it was, he would feel 
deep humiliation and the need to slip his mask back up.  He wasn’t even sure if he *could* 
slip his mask back in place at this point and he really needed to be held.  Duo buried his 
face deep in the obviously male chest of the person holding him which earned him a firmer 
and warmer embrace.

Quatre looked up into Trowa’s eyes.
"Trowa, it doesn’t matter what happened now.  All that matters is that you are here.  Trowa, 
I missed you so much!"

Trowa found Quatre’s words touching, and they seemed to make it a lot easier for him to say 
what he needed to say.  Trowa gave a faint smile.
"Quatre... There is something I really need to tell you."

Quatre’s eyes sparkled as he looked down into Trowa’s.
"You can tell me anything, Trowa.  What is it?"

"First, tell me what has gotten you so upset."

Quatre frowned and looked shameful.
"I think he’s just hurt, but I may have just killed Milardo..."

"How?  Why?  What happened?  Where is he?"

"He... He wouldn’t take 'no' for an answer, and I... I don’t know... I saw red and then... 
he was laying on the ground and..."

Trowa filled with rage, lifting Quatre off of him and sitting the boy on his feet.

"If you didn’t kill him *I* will."
Trowa took off running towards the direction Quatre had come running from earlier.

"Trowa wait!"
Quatre took off running after trowa.

A soft warm voice suddenly filled Duo’s ears, and his eyes popped open at the words.
"Are you ok, Maxwell?"

Only one person called Duo by that name... only one...
"Wufei?!  What are you doing in here?!  I thought I told you to get out!!!"

Wufei looked at Duo worriedly, he eyes running along the now grown out long strands of 
chestnut hair that seemed to frame Duo’s face in a fey-like manner.  Tears marred the 
beautiful soft pale cheeks and his nose was red, but not in a funny way, in an almost cute 
way.  He swallowed and tried his best to answer Duo’s question.

"You did tell me to exit, but I knew you needed someone.  Do you really wish me to leave?"


~~~~~ 


Quatre caught up to Trowa, tackling him.
"Trowa, why are you..."

"That bastard.  How dare he touch you..."
Trowa looked very angry.

"Trowa, what were you gonna tell me before?"
Quatre’s eyes looked pleading.

Trowa inhaled deeply before speaking slowly and softly, looking deep into the pools of aqua 
that were Quatre’s eyes.
"Quatre, I... I love you."

Heero grew frustrated with his life and it’s proceedings.  He suddenly slammed his fist into 
the wall, and then the lamp and the desk.  He kicked the bed and the pillows.  Feathers 
puffed up and delicately fell around him only egging on his pain and anger.  He craved the 
feeling of something breaking in his hands, something tearing...  The negative kinetic 
energies in his hands being released in destruction.  He completely destroyed his dorm room. 
 When he finished there was this eerie silence and moment of clarity in his mind where he 
ultimately realized it was time to go back, face Duo, and tell him the truth... give his 
beloved the chance to make his own informed decision.  Heero took off towards Wing.
