Life Goes On

"...So when I went to the house to pick up my stuff this morning it was soaking wet and laying on the front lawn. Not only, was all my stuff completely ruined, but to top it off all my pants had the crotch cut out of them!" Duo said with his head resting in Heero's lap and his lover stroking his hair.
"Duo. You Baka! I told you to tell her before she found out that way." He kissed the top of his violet-eyed angel's head and continued. "Don't worry she'll get over it eventually."
"Well It's gonna be a while. You know, I thought she was just making idle threats last night, but she actually pulled a gun on me when I came to the door! By the way, that roommate of yours was over there too."
"Jessi? Oh that's right I told her to get lost when you came over."
"Yeah she told me she was moving out and that she'd be by later this week to pick up her stuff. Too, bad she's leaving I would have liked to have her join us." Duo grinned at the thought.
Heero stopped touching Duo's hair and grabbed his lips in a possessive kiss "Mine" he stated simply before going back to stroking his Koi.
"Oh Heero" He purred in pleasure at Heero's words. "I was hoping you'd say that." He chuckled to himself until he felt a light slap across his face. "Ouch!"
"Baka!" Heero said affectionately.

A week later
"C'mon Hilde, let me see!" Jessi whined as she waited for her to come out of the dressing room.
"I can't wear this to work." Hilde said as she stood in front of Jessi in a pair of red leather pants that fit her like a glove and a white tube top embroidered with blood red roses.
"Fine, Hilde, but I was only trying to get you into something that would make you feel comfortable at the bar. Besides, It's the only way you'll fit in." She tried to convince her.
"But, I'm just keeping the books. Why do I need to look like this?"
Jessi sighed, "Because you don't start working on the books until 3 and before that you get to party with the rest of us!" Then she gave Hilde a stern look " And don't even think about not showing up 'til three. Because the Boss would be super pissed. He thinks that with your looks lotsa guys will want to buy you drinks and it'll bring more money into the bar."
"But, Jess, you know I can't hold my liquor. Remember the night that THE bastard got kicked out of the house?" Hilde protested.
"Hey all you have to do is let them BUY you a drink you don't actually have to drink it." She smiled smugly.
Hilde grinned slightly. "Maybe you're right. Okay," She started warming up to the idea, "What else should we buy?"
"Girl, we have to buy you a whole new work wardrobe. Come on!" She grabbed Hilde's hand and ran around the store grabbing things off the rack for her to try on and grabbed one shirt in particular. "Oh Hilde this is fabulous!"
She read the saying on the shirt. "Jess are you crazy?!? I can't wear that!"
"Good" she grinned "Because I want it!"
Several hours later the girls came out of the store with an outrageous number of shopping bags in their hands.
, , , , , ,
Heero and Duo were in the middle of a full on make-out session when the door bell rang. "Awwwwww man! Talk about bad timing!" Duo whined as Heero got up to answer the door. Jessi stood on the other side of the door and walked inside.
"Hi Heero" She said then turned to Duo and nodded "Hello asshole." To which he just raised his eyebrows. "I'll be out of your way in a sec." She looked around. "I can see you're busy, so I'll just go get my stuff." Walked through the apartment to her old bedroom and grabbed the few boxes and bags that belonged to her and started to leave.
"Jessi, wait" Duo caught her arm. "How is she?" True concern showing in his eyes.
She sighed. "She's fine Duo and she'll stay that way as long as you leave her alone." She turned quickly and left them looking after her.

Three months later
"I cannot believe you dragged me here. This is injustice!" Wufei scowled when he Trowa and Quatre entered the bar.
"I have to admit, Quatre, that I agree with Wufei. I don't see the point in coming here." Trowa yelled over the music as he looked around the over crowded bar.
"Oh, c'mon neither of you have been on a date in over a year. Now go find yourselves some women!" Quatre grinned and shoved them into the room. Then he took his girlfriend by the hand and lead her to the dance floor.
Wufei walked up to the bar and waited to beserved. He waited for about twenty minutes before he yelled at a girl wearing a cowboy hat behind the bar. "Onna, get me a beer!" To which she just looked at him for a second. "I said, GET ME A BEER, you stupid weak ONNA!"
Jessi put her hands on her hips and looked at the arrogant Chinese man in front of her. "Oh, no. You did not just call me Onna!" She glared at him.
"As a matter of fact I did. Now get me a beer."
"I am NOT some stupid weak Onna. Okay? In fact if I really wanted to I could jump over this bar an Kick Your Ass!" She told him as she opened a beer and placed it before him.
"Whatever you say." He smirked at her because she obviously didn't know who she was talking to and walked into the crowd.
'What an arrogant prick' Jessi thought to herself.
Trowa stood on the edge of the crowd observing the people around him when he sensed that there was some one behind him and then he felt a tap on his shoulder. A female voice said "Hey handsome, how 'bout buying me a drink?"
He turned around only to see a young woman with dark shoulder length hair and clear blue eyes standing in front of him in red leather pants a white tube top. His eye widened in surprise "Hilde?"
She blushed profusely "T...T...Trowa? W-What are you doing here?" She tried to seem casual.
"Quatre decided Wufei and I needed a date."
"You mean, You and Wufei are-" She looked slightly confused.
"What?" He began to understand and started a blush of his own. "Oh! No, neither of us swing that way. Quatre brought us here hoping that we would meet the women of our dreams" He smiled, a very unusual thing for Trowa Barton. While they were talking Wufei had joined them and nodded his head in acknowledgement of Hilde. "So Hilde, you never told me, what ARE you doing here?"
"Oh ummm... I sort of work here." She admitted bashfully.
"Really? To be honest, I never pictured as one of the those type of girls" Wufei indicated Jessi who was dancing on top of the bar now in very short pair of black satin shorts and a t-shirt that they had bought together that read 'I've got what boys want!' across the chest.
Hilde crossed her arms taking offense at the comment. "For your information Jessi happens to be a very good friend of mine. I'm surprised you don't recognize her. She used to be Heero's roommate."
Wufei and Trowa both choked on their drinks. "You mean Heero lived with HER?!? I don't see how on earth he could have convinced some one like THAT to live with him."
"Besides, none of us have ever been to Heero's place. He didn't keep in touch with any one, but Duo. So of course we wouldn't know her." Wufei tried to seem casual, but he couldn't take his eyes off the dancing girl.
"Oh," Hilde felt a her cheeks start to flush as she ran his words through her head and then grinned, "Wufei? Are you actually showing interest in a 'stupid onna' I think you call us?"
"Of course not. I'm just saying that I don't think that anyone could live with Heero."
Hilde grinned. "Uh-huh" and glanced down at her watch. "Well if you guys aren't doing anything tommorow night, we're off so if you wanna come over we could catch up."
They looked at each other "Sure. You still live at the old place?"
"No," She grabbed a napkin off one of the high-topped tables around the dance floor and scribbled an address on it. "Here, this is the apartment. And invite Quatre and his girlfriend to come to. But, I have to get to work so I'll see you later." With that she walked off to the back offices.
