Duo's Journal's Paz Enai
Entry #11-"Whoa"
So I made sure to start the day off right; I made me a nice egg concoction and toast. I had orange juice too, but I don't like this kind. Apparently-there's pulp in it- eww.
Knowing that I couldn't not eat at work today I decided that I should take some food in with me; I had the sneaking suspicion that I wouldn't be able to leave my office due to my workload. I took a bunch of small tomatoes (I'm not sure what the difference between grape tomatoes and cherry tomatoes is, but it was one or the other) and baby carrots because those are so yummy and they're (both) actually really good for you. I also took some granola bars, but that's because I don't want my body to go into food-shock since those bars were all I'd been eating lately and then suddenly throwing this in this other stuff... You know how it is-- when you don't eat for a while and then one day you try to eat a lot and it makes you feel sick. I was trying to prevent that… Didn't work as well as planned, but I guess it worked a little.
Anywhoo, I was getting ready to drive over to your - well my - place when you called to let me know you weren't going to be able to come in today. I thought that was weird so as soon as I got settled and got some little things done at work I called you... at my apartment. (I was halfway through calling your place first, until I realized that no one was going to be home.)
No one was home there either though, so I tried to do other stuff for as long as my impatience would let me, before I called again. I didn't leave a message though, because I didn't want you to think I was stalking you… or something. It was at this point that I remembered you had a portable phone (pat's self on back) and called you at that.
I know it was on. It rang the right number of times before flipping to voice mail, you know. You screened me out, you bastard! Anyway I figured that you must've been healthy and just had some running around to do. Granted I had no idea what, and without your car, much less, 'cause last I checked it was still parked in lot for your apartment.
Work went by amazingly slow without you. I was actually quite surprised. I guess I was just waiting for you to come in and kept watching the clock; it's not as tolerable to do so much work without you around, surprisingly.
Then I came home, to your place, I figured once I got in I could call you, right. Hah, like there was a need.
Apparently today was my birthday.
And you remembered, but I didn't. Funny how things work out like that, huh?
As I was entering the apartment, I found this Japanese-style letter and charm on the front door. As I was trying to figure out what they were doing there and opening the door I realized that I was smelling dinner from within the apartment. Gee, dinner can't cook itself; now can it, so I looked up startled. Not only were you kindly dressed down for me in a short-sleeved shirt and nice taught jeans, but there was a dinner that had to be fit for a king. Probably took you all day to cook it (which might explain why you didn't answer the phones). I also saw my birthday gift, which I kindly shared with you and caused us both to zonk out on the Sex Couch for a while.
I woke up at two in the morning to realize I was using you as a pillow, so I got up and laid you out on the couch and covered you with a blanket from your bed… But alas, I couldn't go into another room after that so I have ended up sitting on the floor watching you sleep until now.

And I guess you woke up after I fell asleep on God-knows-what, because now I'm on the couch, it's almost eleven and you're getting tea ready. I think I should make breakfast, it's only fair right? Leftovers it shall be. :D
One other thing, how'd you know I'd like the vodka? I guess all those trips to the bar a while back did some good, eh? We should start doing that again...
Oops, time to hide this XD

Paz Note:
Uhm, in reviewing this I have learned startling things!! Apparently, according to absolute anime dot com, Duo's Birthday is in February… (making him the second oldest Gundam Pilot)… But according to the same site, Trowa is two years older than the other pilots, and uhh, I'm pretty sure everywhere lists him as 15... soooo…?
My excuse is that Duo never knew his birthday, so when all the legal documents that need to exist for you to count in society were made for him by, I assume, Preventers they just made him up a new one…
