Sentence # 44

[misanagi]

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.

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 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.

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.
