Sentence # 44

44. Heaven

Duo would never admit, not even to himself, that the reason why he often dragged Quatre away from work to have some fun was because, after what they had done, he didn't believe that they would go to heaven; life was probably all the happiness they would get, and Duo wouldn't let his best friend throw that away.

That was truly lovely. I like how Duo is not only concerned for his own afterlife, but Quatre's as well, especially since it looks like Quatre would likely work himself into the ground if given half a chance :P.

Thank you. ^_^

Duo is worried for all of them, much more than he could worry about himself. They are family. And you are right. Quatre needs Duo to stop once in a while, or he would keep going until there was no more of him to go on.

he didn't believe that they would go to heaven

i'd have to believe that there is a special place in heaven for folks like the guys. :) doesn't help duo's belief though.

thank you for sharing mis. your little stories are just fantastic, and i love reading them. :)

I agree with you. I think there is a happy place for the guys. Or maybe I just love them too much to think otherwise. *pets Duo* What he thinks, however, is another story.

Im so glad that you are enjoying these sentences. Just seven left and I'll stop spamming all your f-lists. ^_^

I think what makes this one especially moving is that clause at the beginning - "not even to himself" - followed by the rest of it, the way that Duo knows and doesn't at the same time. Or maybe it's that he knows and doesn't want to know. I love the determination, too, the irrepressible urge to live. Not just to be alive, but to allow for joy wherever you can get it, in however small measure or form; it's all worth it.

Thank you.

I'm so glad that you liked this. As you say, Duo doesn't want to know, but yet he does, and it affects the way he lives and the way he wants the others to lead their lives too.

*hugs you* thanks so much for the comment. *hugs more*

Poor Duo, taking such a big responsibility. I think Quatre would hug him so tight, to know that Duo cares that much about him. These two are such awesome friends. I love the way you're writing them.

*blushes* Thank you! I'm so glad that you like these. I really like to think that all the pilots would be very good friends, each with a special/ different relationship with each other. Quatre and Duo, I think they would be very protective about each other, in many different ways. They would be subtle about it, but yet, they would know their friends is there for them, always.
