Okay, so this is the first story I'm posting in a long time. It's gonna be done in chapters. It was inspired by 'The Arabian Doll,' by Shine Q. I've got a lot written, and I will post another chapter in a few days when I have the time. Be gentle with me. I always start out strong, let me know when I'm straying too far from reality.

The music from the piano resounded through the building. It was a sad tune, Moonlight Sonata. Duo and Heero looked at the wall as though they could see the boy playing.

"Why does he play that all the time?" Heero asked. He had just moved in with Duo, and hadn't really noticed the music before.

"He's really sad," Duo replied.

"What happened to him?" Heero asked.

"He was in love. And his boyfriend was in some accident. A Chinese boy I believe," Duo replied. "He used to play for an hour a day, but happier, beautiful songs… Since last month he just plays that song over and over. I'm surprised you didn't ask me about it earlier."

"I hadn't really noticed. It's almost like I can feel the pain in the music," Heero whispered. He looked sympathetically at the wall.

"Good musicians can put their emotion into their instruments," Duo remarked. "I'll tell you, there where times when I heard him play that I snapped out of bad moods. I would just listen to him play and mellow out."

"Maybe you'll introduce me?" Heero asked.

"I don't know him," Duo said.

"Then, how do you know those other things?" Heero asked.

"Well the people in this building tend to spread rumors. I don't know if they're true or not but…" Duo replied. Heero shook his head and put an arm around the braided boy.

"Let's get out of here for a while huh?" Heero asked. He didn't want to start feeling any worse for this kid than he already was. Duo nodded and they left to get something to eat.
