Another ficcie! New! Not improved! I got my inspiration from a fic that

I was trying to get to sleep and thought of this!

They were both sitting at a nice, little restaurant by the beach. The table was set outside as was a dozen others; it was very romantic because it was a candle light dinner with the wind gently blowing. They could both see the waves gently coming up onto the shore and then to retreat back into the misty sea. Everything was going perfect, perfect moonlight, perfect food, and even perfect company. The one thing that wasn't so perfect was the mood of one, cobalt eyed Japanese man.
Heero took his fork and carefully arranged the food on his plate as if he were eating. He took no notice that Duo was watching him intently.
"Okay baby," he took his fork and knife out of his steak and folded his hands in front of him, "what's wrong? You haven't eaten a thing tonight."
Heero looked up startled and blushed...he had been caught. "I have been eating," and with that he brought his fork to his mouth with almost five kernels of rice.
Duo rolled his eyes, "Heero, you have barely eaten your chicken teriyaki and that's, like, your favorite! You would eat it every day if you could...actually you eat it about every other day but that's beside point. What's wrong?"
Heero set down his fork, sighed, and took a delicate sip of his water. "Duo-kun there is nothing wrong with me...I'm just not hungry that's all and I'm really sorry I'm wasting your money."
Duo's eyes softened and he spoke gently, "Honey, don't even worry about it. The only thing I'm worried about is you. Did something happen today?"
"Y-Yes...no...maybe..." Heero stuttered. He really didn't want to tell Duo what was bugging him because he thought that it was just stupid and that he was being paranoid.
Duo chuckled, "Well come on, don't keep me waiting. The suspense is just killing me."
Heero smiled slowly but it didn't reach his eyes. He hesitantly said, "Promise not to get upset or anything first."
Duo frowned, "I promise, baby."
Heero began, "Well I went shopping with Dawn [1] today and he told me that he and Charlie had just gotten engaged. I'm really happy for them because they had been together since junior year in high school...at least that's what I'm told."
Duo nodded and began to think, "So then what's wrong? Charlie told me that he had proposed to Dawn when they went to Lake Cucamonga [2]. Is this about them getting married because..."
Heero hurriedly interrupted, "No! No, it has nothing to do with them it's just that..." He didn't know how to continue, he really didn't want Duo to get upset at him, like he was pushing him. He also didn't know how to continue because Duo had kind of hit it right on target...marriage. He knew that Duo wouldn't even dream of marrying him, he could do so much better and he knew for a fact that Duo only stayed with him out of pity.
"Then what is it? I don't understand..."
"It's just that," he took a deep breath and ran a trembling hand through his unruly hair, "it's just that...Dawn had told me that he had recently met Charlie's family and how nervous he had been and...I began to wonder..." Heero looked up hesitantly at Duo to see his reaction so far.
Duo didn't understand a damn thing he was telling him. He motioned with his hands for Heero to continue.
"Well...I-I was wondering why I haven't met your family? I-If you don't want me to meet them then that's totally fine...I would take you to my family but...um...I would actually have to have a family for that." He tried to laugh but failed miserably. He wanted to try and lighten his confession but it seemed as if that wasn't happening.
Duo couldn't believe it. So this is why he hadn't really talked since he had gotten home from his outting. Sure Heero was generally a quiet guy but this was just...different. What really made Duo unhappy was when Heero mentioned his family, or their lack of. Heero hated to bring up his family or just past in general and did so rarely.
"So this is what has been bothering you all evening?"
He got a shy nod from Heero who had his head down and his hands carefully folded in his lap. He heard him then mumble, "Are you mad at me?"
All Duo did was turn his head to the right and watched as the waves crashed into the golden sand that could clearly be seen by the moonlight. Duo could never be upset with Heero and it was probably because he never DID anything to upset him. Duo was, in a way, upset with himself. It wasn't that Duo hadn't thought of this before, he had always wanted to take his love to meet his family, it was possibly THE second most important thing in the world to him (the first was, obviously, Heero). But he had always hesitated in bringing up the subject because he didn't think that Heero was ready. Number one, ready in the relationship department and number two was in the family department. Heero was still sensitive about that sort of thing...even after all these years.
He took a deep breath and exhaled. He slowly turned to Heero to see him looking at him with those big, blue eyes of his and his full bottom lip trembling softly. Those same eyes and those same lips were the first thing that he noticed about the Asian man.
He finally stated, "Baby, I'm not mad at you. I'm pretty upset with myself for not mentioning this to you before, to be honest."
"Really Duo?"
Duo smiled and nodded. "It's kind of ironic because tomorrow night all my sisters, brothers, and some other relatives will be at my parents house. They had already asked if I wanted to come but I had said no because I didn't think that you would really wanna go and..."
Heero interrupted him and spoke out excitedly, "Oh Duo! I would love to meet your family tomorrow! Do you think that we could really go?"
Duo chuckled and once again nodded. "They've been dying to meet you, my mom especially."
Heero smiled, "Arigato Duo-kun...this really means a lot."
Duo smiled then blushed lightly which was very rare and far between. He asked, "Babe, tell me one more time, what that means. I keep forgetting, sorry."
Heero sighed heavily and leaned forward into his chair, resting his elbows onto the table and resting his chin onto his folded hands. He rolled his eyes, "Two years we've been together and you still don't know what 'arigato' means?" He sighed heavily again; "It means thank you, baka."
Duo smiled sheepishly, "Oh...well at least I know what 'baka' means!"
Heero laughed softly.
"Come on baby, lets ditch this place and go home for some real fun," he wiggled his slim eyebrows and started to lick his lips seductively.
Heero blushed furiously but nodded.
Duo waved over their waiter to receive the check. After paying the check he stood up and went to help Heero by pulling out his chair for him.
Heero smiled his thanks up at Duo and slipped his small hand into Duo's larger one.
Duo smiled down onto Heero and gently led him to the outside gate that led to where their car was parked, illuminated by the yellow streetlight.
Once safely buckled in, Duo revved the engine, backed out and sped off, towards their destination...towards their home.
