Duo looked down. "Heero? are you okay?" Heero looked up and nodded. Of course he was fine. He just got a glimpse up Duo's skirt, who wouldnt be fine? But of course he would never tell Duo that, it would make him seem perverted. Heero got up and dusted himself off.
"I'm fine Du-er..Maxine." He nodded and resumed his seat. After finishing off their snacks, the two walked over to their gate. The attendant, who looked bored and would want to be anywhere but the gate stood up.
"Okay. Everyone shut up. SHUT UP!" said the attendant. The crowd glanced at her and resumed their conversations. "OKAY ALL OF YOU WHO WANT TO GET ON THIS PLANE FUCKING SHUT UP." she shouted, losing her temper. People stopped their conversation and stared at her. "Flight 143 to San Francisco, California please stand up." Half the crowd stood up. "Alright. people holding cards 1 to 30 please step forward." Thirty people walked forward, including Heero and Duo. "Alrighty. Make one line. Single file...Single File....SINGLE FILE!" no one listened. "SINGLE FUCKING FILE!!! NOW! OR ELSE YOURE NOT GETTING ON THE FUCKING PLANE." the girl glared at the people. They gave her worried looks and scrambled to make one line. "Alrighty..." She started to collect the cards and look at ID. "Alright..Mister Maxwell...Miss Yuichi...Mr. Kendall....Mrs. Kendall...Ms. Kendall....Ms. Lee, Mr. Kim...Mrs. Jenkins...."
Heero and Duo walked together onto the plane. As they passed an elderly couple, the woman whispered to her husband, "My those two make a cute couple, reminds me of how we used to be Norbie..." The man smiled at his wife and patted her hand. Heero glanced at Duo who glanced at him. They broke their gaze quickly and skittered off to find their seats, their faces profusely red and looking flustered.
They settled down quietly. Duo was tired because he had to wake up early to prepare for the trip. First, to wash his hair, then to dry it, then braid it, then blow dry it more, then let out the braid, put in clips, then to put on his oufit, then straighten it out, put on a bit of make up, and then finally, jewelry. His gold cross, a gold bracelet in the shape of a wiggly vine with gold leaves branching off. Duo's head lolled around a little, his eyes drooping, and finally, his head landed on Heero's shoulder. Duo fell into a deep sleep.
Heero looked up startled at the sleeping figure next to him. 'Hn..Things are so peaceful without that baka jabbering on and on...'He thought. 'And yet, he looks so fragile and innocent when he's sleeping...OH GOD what am I thinking? This is DUO I'm talking about. DUO MAXWELL. My best friend. A BOY. A member of the same sex.....and yet...NO no no no no no no! NO! I do NOT like Duo! I..I can't. I wasn't trained to.'
Duo stirred, breaking Heero out of his musings. Heero looked down at the half awake figure. "Wha-?" asked Duo stupidly. "Where am I??"
"You're on the airplane..we're almost there, so get up."
"What?" Duo got up from Heero's shoulder. "Oh gosh...So sorry Heero..you shoulda pushed me over to the other side...." He blinked. "Sorry..." He dusted off Heero's shoulder. "So sorry, shoulda woken me up-"
Heero clamped his hand over Duo's mouth. "Shut up baka" he hissed, and hesitantly, he let go of Duo's head. Duo nodded and remained silent for the rest of the landing.
"And welcome to San Francisco! Today's weather is very sunny. 98 degrees it is today! Remember to wear sunblock and hats! Hope you enjoy your stay and please, fly with us again" chirped a bright flight attendant. Heero and Duo got ready to get off the plane.
When they got off the plane, they claimed their duffel bags and looked for a taxi. They finally spotted one and hopped in.
"Where to?" asked the driver.
"1542 Cerulean Court" was Heero's reply.
"You got it!"
They rode in silence as the streets rolled by them. Duo looked outside and gazed at the buildings like he was some tourist from the colonies...no wait, he WAS a tourist from the colonies. Heero couldn't help but stare at San Francisco's many buildings.
"So ya'll newcomers to San Francisco?" asked the driver.
"Uh yes. "
"What we're about to pass through here is the very famous Golden Gate Bridge. To your right is the infamous Alcatraz Prison."
"WoooooW!" Duo replied, gazing out to the island. "So secluded and scary.I'd hate to be in there."
"Also has one of the fastest currents in the world, San Francisco Bay has."
"So..if you tried to escape, you'd be drowned in almost an instant?" asked Heero
"Yeup."
Heero grinned. It would be easy for him. After all, He was Heero Yuy, the Perfect Soldier. He is invincible.
The driver pulled into a large house covered with vines. It looked very old and looked of Spanish decor. Heero and Duo stepped outside, gazing up at the house in wonder. 'So beautiful' was the thought that ran through each of their minds.
A woman opened the door and whispered, "Hello 01. Hello 02. Dr. X is waiting for you." They walked into the huge foyer and looked up at the stairs. There, poised on the top, was a old man. Not too old mind you, just elderly. About the age of 59 I should say. He walked down carefully, his eyes not moving from the two gundam pilots.
"Hello 01..02. I am Doctor X and I work with Doctor J. You see, Dr. J can't come out of the colonies so I decided to house you two for your mission and give you access to my laboratory and computer database. Feel free to use those two resources as much as you can. I will also be of help, but no much because if I knew where the disc was, we would have no need to call you." He explained. "Now..I'm sure you two need rest so, Marie, show 01 and 02 over to their room.
Heero and Duo paled. Room? Not RoomS?! They would be sharing a room?!!!!
