I stormed home and slammed the door shut. J.J. wasn't in the living room; I went
searching for him.
"J.J.? You here?"
"Yes, I'll be right there!"
I was pacing when J.J. walked into the living room. He looked slightly flushed, but I didn't worry about that at the moment.
"What did he say?"
"Oh, that he loves me, he was never with Relena, and he wants me back. I'm sort of pissed off, but I'm more frustrated than anything."
"He's not going to start bugging you is he?"
"No, he said he was going to leave me alone to live my life. I believe him because he keeps his word."
"So what's frustating you?"
"Just what he said."
"Let it go. He probably didn't mean to upset you."
"Yeah, I know"
J.J. pulled me close to him and kissed me. J.J.'s always been able to calm me, but something was still off about him. I had been having that feeling for a few weeks now. I pulled back and he just looked at me in confusion.
"What's wrong?"
"Something's off with you."
"What do you mean?"
"You just don't act like you used to."
"I think you're imagining things. Heero must have really gotten to you."
"No, I've felt like this for a while. It's almost like you're seeing someone else."
"And why would you think that?"
"Well, you come home late, when you talk on the phone and I walk in you immediatly hang up, and you always want out of the house."
"You're just being paranoid."
"How do I know you're not going out with someone else behind my back?"
"And why are you questioning our relationship? I thought we had something."
"We did, but your acting suspicious."
The phone rang and J.J. went for it. I reached it before him and brought it up on the vid-phone. There was Tiffy, in all her glory staring at us with wide eyes.
"Hi Tiffy," I said coldly.
"Umm....hi Duo...."
"What do you want?"
"Actually, I was, um, calling J.J. back, because he, um, was supposed to come over."
"I can see why. He'll talk to you later." I hung the phone up and glared at J.J.
"And you wanted me to trust you? You're still seeing your trampy ex-girlfriend! If you were so damned unhappy why didn't you just leave?"
"I didn't want to hurt you."
"Too bad, you did. Now get your shit and leave!"
J.J. quickly collected his stuff and left. Now I don't have J.J. and I don't have Heero. Life sucked.

The phone was ringing beside me. I picked it up. It was Quatre.
"Hey Quatre, what's going on?"
"Duo just broke up with his boyfriend."
"Why?"
"That jerk was seeing his ex-girlfriend behind Duo's back."
"Is Duo okay?"
"I don't know, maybe you should go see him."
"Quatre....."
"Please Heero. Who knows, maybe you two will be together before the night is over."
"Okay, I will, but don't expect anything."
"Thank you Heero."
I hung up and got ready to leave. Once again I'm going to face Duo.
