I sat back on the bed, staring at the ceiling. Heero wasn't back yet. He said he'd be back from whatever little mission he had by now. I checked my watch, 1:45. It's been an hour. He's never late! Maybe something happened to him. Maybe he's hurt. Maybe he needs my help and I'm just laying here doing nothing to aid him. I can't just stay here! I must go find him!
I jumped up and ran to the door. Just then, it swung open and smacked me right in the face.
"Duo? What the hell are you doing there?" It was Heero. How do I explain? I was so worried about you because whenever you're gone you take a piece of me with you.
"Duo?" Oh, how embarrassing! I was so wrapped up in my thoughts that I forgot to answer him.
"Oh, uhhh…I was going to see how big the door was. Yeah, for a poster!" Duo, you're babbling. He's going to find out and I'm not ready for that…yet.
Unphased, he replied, "Yeah, ok" He sat down on his bed, opened up his laptop, and began to talk. Oh good, he's not suspicious, I don't think. He doesn't even care, does he? Damn that, well…damn laptop. It occupies all of his time. He's always working. He never takes a break, he's so dedicated. I wish he'd have more time to talk to me and just hang out.
"Hey Duo?"
"Yeah?"
"Can you do me a favor?"
"Sure." I said all too quickly. Anything for you Heero. Anything at all.
"Can you order a pizza?" Oh, food…of course.
"Oh, yeah," I tried to hide my disappointment. I walked into the kitchen. What are you waiting for? You know he's not going to say anything. He's not going to make any moves. You have to. If you don't you'll burst. Cuz he won't…
"Duo?" My thought was interrupted by Heero.
"Yes?" I inquired hopefully.
"No mushrooms"
"Ok, Heero"
I'll tell him. I have to. But, not until after pizza. I picked up the phone and dialed the pizzeria.
