Thanks Misty, Grrl N, J.B. Santiago, and Juleswiter for reviewing.
Duo cheerfully knocked on the door. Five girls in sweats and flannels greeted him at the door and pulled him in.
"Nice to know you guys are so eager to see me," he smiled as Hilde led him into the room where the girls had obviously been camped out. "So, what do you need my help with?" he asked distrusting the almost predator looks they were giving him.
"We have a quest to fulfill," announced Relena regally, "and you, if you are willing, are our first step in helping us in our search."
"What is it you want me to do?" questioned Duo who played with his braid nervously.
His eyes darted from one girl to the other waiting for their response.
"We want you to kiss each of us," answered Hilde.
"Kiss you?" he repeated eyebrows raised in quandary. "Don't take this wrong, but why?"
"We are on the quest for the foot popping kiss," explained Relena who seemed to be the spokesperson for the group.
"Foot popping kiss?" he pondered. "Oh! Like in the movies," he said and watched the female faces around him light up. "So, do I kiss each of you until your foot pops?" he asked lecherously.
"Sorry to disappoint you, but no," Relena said. "You kiss each of us once, and we must be standing," she stated. "Afterwards, those of us who have not experienced the 'foot pop,' will move on to the next guy on the list."
"Who is on the list?" Duo asked with excitement around the edges of his question.
"Currently all the Gundam pilots," Dorothy answered. "We will add mover later if we have to."
"You are going to try this with Wufei and Heero?" he sounded amazed.
The girls nodded.
"You have to let me come with you when you do," he pleaded. "Please… please, you just have to," he almost whined.
"You can come," laughed Relena after he fell to the floor with arms wrapped around her legs and head resting on her feet.
"Thank you, thank you, thank you," he said gratefully as he playfully bowed several times to her as he stood.
The other girls snickered at Duo's behavior.
"Where do I begin?" he asked puckering his lips and making smooching noises.
"You go first, Relena, since you are the one who started this quest with your question," said Catherine.
Relena nodded and stepped next to Duo for her first kiss. She closed her eyes as his face came near. His hand came to rest on the back of her neck. She could feel his warm breath caressing her lips before he pulled her closer and kissed her.
The others watched Relena's feet closely and let out a disappointed groan as the two pulled apart.
Duo pulled away smiling, and Relena sat the blinking amazed and not moving.
"How was your first kiss, Relena?" Hilde teased.
"That was your first kiss?" Duo asked amazed. "I feel honored," he whispered in her ear before placing a chased kiss on her cheek. Duo turned to the group of girls and asked, "Who's next?"
Duo kissed Dorothy, Sally, and Catherine with no 'foot pop.'
Hilde stood next to him for her turn. She looked up into his smiling face and could not help grinning back at her friend.
"Ready to have your socks knocked off," he whispered to her.
"You didn't manage to do that last Christmas," she teased back.
Suddenly his mouth covered hers with his tong moving across her bottom lip till she opened enough to allow it entrance into her mouth. Both sets of lips and tongs moved with the other, giving and taking, tasting and enjoying each other.
Cheers pulled the couple from their lip lock, and they blinked confused at the others.
Hilde noticed she lowered her foot that she did not know was raised.
"I foot popped!" she exclaimed as her foot touched the ground. "I didn't even realize it."
"There's our proof that it is not done consciously," pointed out Sally.
"And that it does happen," added Catherine.
"Well, what does a 'foot popping' kiss feel like, Hilde?" Dorothy asked.
When there was no response, the group turned to find Duo and Hilde enthusiastically kissing once more.
"Excuse me," giggled Relena as she tried to interrupt the couple. "You can only kiss each one once," she reminded him.
"But, she is out of the running now," he commented pulling away but not letting her go.
"She is, but she has to go with us tomorrow when we approach the others," Relena said.
"We also have to debrief her," added Sally.
"Thanks for your help, Duo," said Catherine as they pushed him to the door.
"You have a funny way of showing your graduated," he grumbled as he allowed them to shove him out.
"Come back in the morning, and you can join us on our search for the others," Relena promised.
"I'll be here bright and early," he said. "You lovely ladies have a good night," he finished with a wink before leaving.
