Chapter Two: More Recruits
Heero had no idea how he was going to get Duo to come. It had taken him forever to get Trowa and Quatre to agree to going. First Quatre didn't, but Trowa did. Then Quatre did but Trowa didn't. Then, neither of them did, until finally they both agreed to going. He wondered if it had been more trouble then it was worth.
No, this is important, Heero thought to himself. I need those two. It was worth it, weather I understand why or not. And hooking Duo is just as vital as Quatre and Trowa. All of them are.
Just as he had finished putting his things back into his suit case, his cell phone rang. Only a few people knew his number, so he had a good idea as to whom it could be.
"Yuy," He answered as he locked his case.
"I'm in," a familiar voice answered, "on one condition."
"I'm listening."
"Wufei comes. I don't want to deal with the loves birds alone for five years without any break." Zechs admitted.
"That might be a problem. I have yet to contact him and haven't the slightest clue as to where he is." Heero confessed, slipping a pair of sun glasses on before leaving his hotel room.
"Don't worry about it. I do. And he's already said that he will go so there's one less thing you have to worry about." Zechs explained over the phone.
"Really? That's good to hear. How'd you find him?" Heero stepped into the elevator and pushed the button for the ground floor.
"Followed a trail of tiny bread crumbs. Trust me, it wasn't easy. You gave me a week to decide. I decided the first day, and then spent five hunting him down. He got two days to decide. He said yes ten minutes before I called actually."
"Oh, so he's with you. Good. I just confronted Duo and gave him a week to decide. So be ready for my call at any time."
"Got it. Talk to you soon."
"Right." Heero hung up and stepped out of the elevator as the doors slid open. His destination: the check out desk.
Duo had made sure that Jeff knew to let Heero in when he came back. He was still trying to figure out the whole delivery thing, but gave up after five minutes. He didn't have the attention span. It was an hour after he left that Heero arrived back at his front door. The knock was light, uncharacteristic for Heero, but then again the wing pilot had changed a lot. Duo could tell just by looking at him.
Heero had put on a pair of sunglasses, making him look even hotter. In fact, if it weren't for the messy chocolate brown hair, you couldn't have guessed that it was Heero at all. Duo let Heero in and showed him where to put his things. It was defiantly going to be an interesting week.
End Chapter Two
AN: Shorter, indeed. But, that's okay. Next chapter is longer. I promise (like I said, I already have it written.) Have fun!
