Author's Note: Welcome to Part 2! ^_^ This part features... *drumroll* Quatre and Heero, 1x2 implied...

Chapter 2:




Heero was on his way up to bed, when he spotted Quatre alone in the living room. Something about the sad, hopeless expression on his face reached out to the Wing Zero Pilot, and pulled him in to the living room. *He looks so lost,* the young boy thought, as he searched the Arabian's face, for a hint of the carefree boy he had been just a few days earlier. *Damn that Trowa!* the Japanese boy silently cursed. *How could he do this to Quatre?*

Heero hadn't come right out and asked Quatre what was wrong, but he had managed to pry quite a bit of information from Duo, who had questioned the blond boy at length, probing his mind like a psychologist. Truth be known it was probably because of all Duo's questioning that Quatre had withdrawn from everyone so much.

Heero, himself, still couldn't believe that Trowa and Quatre were no longer together. When they had started going out it had seemed so right. But, as he stood there watching the younger boy, he just wanted to reach out and hold him, comfort him... two things he didn't normally do...

Heero was surprised when he heard Quatre's small voice call out to him. "Hee-chan?" The small boy turned to face Heero, his blue eyes glistening with unshed tears. "Do you believe in soulmates?" His voice was so soft, barely abovea whisper.

The Japanese boy was at a loss for words. "I-I don't know," he answered, finally. He stepped forward and joined Quatre in the darkness on the couch. "Why?"

~*~*~

Quatre glanced away from Heero, and sunk into the couch's soft, velvet depths. He focused his gaze on the wall opposite him, and sighed.

"From the moment I met Trowa," he began softly, "I felt this magical force drawing us together. I was so confused, because all my life, I've been taught, that it was wrong to be with someone who was the same sex as you. I always knew I was supposed to grow up peacefully and be the perfect heir. Then, I would marry and my wife and I would produce an heir... but the moment I met Trowa, I forgot all that. It didn't matter. And when we performed our first duet, I knew it was him. I knew we were meant to be together..." Quatre paused as he drew a ragged breath.

"Is he your soulmate?" Heero asked, still fighting the urge to wrap the boy in his arms and soothe him.

"I thought so. I really thought so," Quatre whispered as a stray tear ran down his cheek. "But, Heero, if he and I were meant to be together, then why in the hell did he leave me? That's what I can't figure out."

"Things just happen," Heero replied, moving closer. "You have to let it go."

"Why doesn't he love me like I love him?" Quatre cried out, drawing his legs up onto the couch and wrapping his arms around them. "What's wrong with me?!?"

Heero, wrapped his arms around the small boy and held him close. "There's nothing wrong with you! Nothing at all."



"Then why can't Trowa love me? Why couldn't my father love me? Why can't anyone love me?" Quatre began to tremble in Heero's arms. *Why is he holding me?* The thought came so suddenly, it surprised Quatre. *Does he care?*

~*~*~

Heero was surprised to find himself falling, as he held Quatre on the couch in the dark. Falling back through time. *Less than a year ago, I would've died to hold him like this,* Heero thought, remembering how he had felt about Quatre before Quatre had gotten together with Trowa. It was so weird to have these feelings reawakening, feelings he had fought for so long.

"Aishiteru," the pilot whispered softly, into the blond's ear.

"Heero, you know I don't speak Japanese," the Arabian said, but Quatre didn't ask what he had said. Heero had a feeling he knew.

Heero, slowly turned him, so that he was looking into Quatre's crystal blue eyes. Then, before the other boy could react, Heero leaned down and kissed him softly. He felt him gasp, surprised, then slowly he returned the kiss, this one longer than the first. As they pulled away, Quatre looked into his eyes, confused and surprised.

"Heero? What about Duo?"

Heero pulled away, feeling guilty. He hadn't even thought about Duo. Leave it to Quatre to bring him up. He couldn't even begin to explain their relationship to the other boy... Hell, he didn't even understand it himself. *Would Duo be upset?* he wondered. He wasn't the greatest at predicting how people would react to things, but he knew if the situation were reversed, he would understand. *It'll be ok,* he told himself. *Duo will understand.*

"Don't worry about him," Heero said, after pausing for a long moment. He leaned in again, and once again captured the small boy's mouth with his own. Quatre shivered, as Heero ran his tongue over his bottom lip, softly, requesting entrance.

~*~*~

Quatre quickly submitted, sliding his mouth open. He was surprised at the pilot's gentleness.

Quatre slid his arms around the boys neck, and kissed him back harder. *See, someone can love you,* a small voice in the back of his head told him. *There's nothing wrong with you.*

He surprised himself by pushing the older boy back on to the couch and kissing him with renewed passion. Heero didn't fight the small Arabian, giving in to the boy's manipulation. Before either boy realized exactly what was happening, Heero had unbuttoned Quatre's shirt and pulled it almost completely off of the small boy.

Once Quatre realized he was partially undressed, he decided there was a problem with this situation. Heero was wearing too many damn clothes. Quatre grabbed the hem of Heero's green tank top and began to pull it off of him. He broke the kiss and pulled away, so he could pull the shirt over Heero's head. Once he had freed Heero of the garment, he dropped it on the floor, and quickly added his own shirt to the pile. Then, he leaned over and began kissing the Wing Zero pilot again. Heero was reaching for the button on Quatre's pants when they heard the gasp from the doorway. Both looked up quickly from what they were doing to the door, where their eyes landed on a very upset Duo.

"Heero, how could you?" the braided boy whispered, before fleeing the room, in tears...
