Sometimes you're cute.
By: ~thejasonresno
A/N: Drabble. I don't own the anime but I own the amount of love I have for all of the characters. That is something I will never lose. Duo and Hilde.
"Please, Duo."
A grunt and the sound of glass clattering.
"I love you so much, Hilde, you have to know it! Ever since the wa--"
A feminine sigh.
"Oh shush. Ever since I first saw you I knew I had to get to know you. Learn to love you. No, that's not right. I knew I loved you. I just knew it Hilde."
"Oh Duo..."
Chair legs scrape across the floor as a slight female figure takes a seat and listens.
"And ever since the war ended I knew I had to treat you right. Work hard. Sweat. Provide. Do for us what nobody ever did for me!"
As the braided youths voice raised in passion his fist began to pump and exclaim key words.
"And from that point I knew I had to marry you Hilde. I just knew it. I couldn't go on living only half of a life. I may look happy, babe, but sometimes...sometimes I'm just so alone."
The former soldier gulped as if holding back tears, "I love you babe."
Chair legs scraped again and the young woman took the step across their tiny kitchen and took the bleeding heart into her arms. She ran her hand gently though his fine hair.
"You've done wonderful for me Duo. For us."
His eyes closed to squints as he gave her a broad and entirely cheesy grin.
"But..."
"Wait? But what? What?"
"But," she continued, "You still have to do the dishes."
The German woman grinned and dropped the damp dishrag into the calloused hands of her husband.
"Ya know Duo, sometimes you are too cute."
She kissed him lightly on the forehead and turned to walk out of the kitchen. Under her breath she added: "It's just too bad all of that cuteness only happens when there are chores to be done."
