Chp 10
"Do I have ta…I could just go-"
"Yes you have to. Duo you smell like bleach and oregano." Heero said. "Kinda like a chemical pizza." He added, intending to make Duo laugh, which it did.
"Well, if you say so…but stay with me so I don't drown." He added the last part quickly. He removed his shirt. Heero rolled his eyes and nodded. Waiting for Duo to undress, he went and added bubble bath to the tub/maybe this will calm him a little\. He though.
He helped Duo slowly sink into the warm water, making sure not to look anywhere unmentionable. Duo laughed and so did Heero when they saw that the bubbles went to Duo's shoulder leaving only his neck and head sticking out.
"See, you won't drown." Heero said, reaching for the shampoo bottle.
"What is that?" Duo asked curiously. Watching as Heero squeezed out a considerable amount onto his palm.
"This is shampoo, it's for you're hair." Heero said, he reached over the tub and pushed Duo's head back with his free hand, making sure to get it all wet. Duo's eyes widened when his face almost went under but he trusted Heero and just bared with it, hands on the sides of the tub for some support. Heero let him come back up and proceeded to massage the soap into his hair.
"Oh!" Duo said and leaned on the side of the tub, closing his eyes and started purring. Heero massaged Duo's head a lot longer then he needed to, but he couldn't help it, the boy was purring and practically asleep with the sensations. He waited a few more minutes before stopping and pushing Duo's head back into the water, where he massaged again to get all the soap out.
"And this is conditioner, pretty much for the same reason, you're hair, but it helps get the tangles out, I don't ever really use it, but it'll come in handy with your hair." Heero said, squeezing out a lot less of this stuff then the shampoo he had used, after all, to much could make Duo's hair oily. The conditioning went faster then the shampooing, but pretty much had the same affect on Duo.
Heero took up the wash cloth and started to wash Duo's body. Then he paused.
'Um, here Duo, you finish up. I'm going to go get you a towel…or two." Heero left the bathroom, leaving Duo to wash his own legs and well, his unmentionable. Heero came back a few minutes later and helped Duo out of the tub. He handed a towel to Duo, while he went to the task of drying Duo's hair. This proved a difficult task as Duo had wrapped his tail around Heero's upper thigh.
Once Duo was dried off, he dressed in only a pair of loose black pants. Heero lead him into his bedroom and they sat down in the mound of pillows on Duo's bed. He bushed Duo's hair gentle and braided it, surprised that the boy was quiet the entire time. He looked down at Duo and found the boy asleep. Heero laid him down on his stomach and finished his hair with a tight braid.
-------- Flash Back-----
"Duo, why do you braid your hair before you go to sleep, your only going to have to do it in the morning again." Heero said, sitting at his laptop in their dorm room and watching Duo.
"Because if I don't it'll be worse in the morning and take me even longer to do. How efficient would that be if we got attacked or something Heero?" Duo asked. Heero only nodded., Duo had a point.
"Maybe you're not as much of a baka as I thought you were." Heero said, turning back to his computer. Duo just laughed.
-----End flash back-----
Heero kissed Duo's forehead and smiled as he realized that Duo had the panda bear wrapped tightly in his arms. He left Duo's room, turning out the light. He went to the kitchen, surprised at how clean it was and quickly made something to eat. It was only a little after 6 and duo was already sleeping. "Cats." He mumbled with a smile.
The next four hours Heero spent doing his work, catching up on everything he would need done, so that he could spend his time with Duo properly and not have to worry about any work. He sent the files to Une and shut down his computer. He took a quick shower, dressed in only a pair of boxers and went to his room.
"Duo." Heero said, and smiled. His little kitten was curled up on his bed, with his bear. Heero moved over to the bed and curled up with Duo, pulling the boy into his arms. "You don't like your bed, huh?" Heero asked.
"It's good for naps." Duo said with a smile turning onto his back. "But I like sleeping with you better." He added. Heero propped himself up on his elbow leaning over Duo.
"I told you we didn't need all those pillows." He said with a smile.
"Yes I do." Duo said playing at defensive. Heero couldn't take it any longer. He cupped Duo's cheek in his hand and leaned down to kiss him. Duo sighed into it and wrapped his arms around Heero. Heero pulled away, but not far. His lips almost touching Duo's.
"See I told you we weren't friends." Duo whispered. His tail wrapped around Heero's tail.
"We weren't lovers either….not yet." Heero said. Duo smiled at him.
"I still can't remember…but the feeling are still there, Heero." Duo said, kissing Heero softly. He deepened it with his tongue, Duo happily obliging and enjoyed aver minute of it closing his eyes.
Duo opened his eyes when he felt a tear hit his cheek. Heero's eyes where closed but the tears where still slipping threw. Duo pulled away.
"What's wrong?" Heero pulled Duo into a tight hug.
"I had been so scared. I didn't think It was possible for me to ever feel like that. After going threw the war and not caring what happened. I thought you were undefeatable, and I was too. It was just the way things were. But then the war ended, I think that was when I was able to admit to myself the feelings I had for you, but it still had me a little more then worried, so I never said anything. And then on the verge was being able to, you disappear. Those men took you away from me.
"I took the case, even though Une had said that I shouldn't I did. And I looked everywhere. I used every skill I knew, I hated every computer system, and I still couldn't find you. Then they found you're body, or the one that they thought was you. I truly thought you where dead. I broke down, my heart felt like it had been shot a million times. But at the same time I knew it wasn't you. I couldn't accept that you were dead. But you were.
"Then I got that phone call that night, saying that the body had been a fake. And I started looking again. But G had covered his track so well that it was impossible. It took Ely to come into the PHQ to tell us…" Heero was sobbing now. Duo wrapped his arms tighter around Heero and buried his head into Heero's neck. "But I have you know…and I'll never let you go again."
