A Fortunate Misunderstanding
Part 2
Heero sat bolt upright in bed, gasping for breath as he tried to calm his pounding heart. His sleep had been disturbed by the loud, shrill ringing of the phone. He gave the phone a death glare, hoping it would shut up so he could go back to sleep. After about ten rings Heero realized that the person was not going to hang up, so he decided he should make Duo answer it since he was closer to the phone.
"Duo, answer the phone."
The only reply Heero got was a grunt. So he picked up his pillow and threw it at Duo. To Heero's satisfaction, Duo responded by yelping and sitting up with a shocked expression on his face.
"What the hell was that for?!" Duo yelled.
"Answer the damn phone."
Duo grumbled and swore to himself as he tried to get out of bed but the blankets got wrapped around his legs, causing him to fall off the bed instead. Heero started to laugh as Duo began swearing louder.
"Oh, so you think this is funny huh?!" Duo shouted at Heero as he untangled himself from the blankets.
"Yes," Heero said as he smirked at Duo.
"Yeah well, it's all your fault, making me get out of bed. You should've answered the phone since you were up first."
"Just answer the phone," Heero said. "Might as well since you're already up."
"Fuck you!" Duo shouted, effectively ending their conversation with his rude expletive.
Duo finally managed to get to the phone, which was still ringing; he picked it up saying "This is Hell, Death speaking."
"DUO!!!!!" Heero heard coming out of the phone as he watched Duo swear and yank the phone away from his ear.
Heero would have been amused except he knew who it was and did not want to talk to her, especially this early in the morning.
"I'm not here," Heero mumbled as he laid down and pulled the covers over his head.
Duo smirked as he said into the phone "Hey Relena. How are you this lovely morning? Is there anything I can do for you?"
As Heero listened to Duo talk to Relena, he knew the boy was purposely acting nice in order to annoy Heero and he found that Duo was succeeding.
Duo listened to Relena talking for a few minutes, then said to the lump on the bed that was Heero "Oh Hee-chan! Telephone!"
Heero uncovered himself and just glared at Duo, who was giving him a wicked grin.
"I'll get you for this," Heero mumbled as he got up to take the phone from Duo, who continued to grin at Heero as he flopped back onto his bed and got under the covers again. Heero just sighed and tried to mentally prepare himself for a conversation with Relena.
"What?" was all he managed to say into the phone.
"Oh Heero! Did I wake you? I'm so sorry but you shouldn't be in bed on such a beautiful morning. Besides, soldiers aren't supposed to sleep in!" Heero looked at the clock as she said this, which read 6am causing Heero to roll his eyes. Relena continued her monologue, saying "Heero! I've got the best news! I'm having a party tonight! Aren't you so excited? You're invited of course, so are the other pilots! It's going to be so much fun!"
Heero seriously doubted Relena's last comment, knowing that Relena's parties consisted of classical music, fruit juice and vegetables, plus a ton of giggling girls. Not exactly what Heero would call a fun party and he definitely did not want to go.
"I'm busy tonight," was Heero's lame excuse.
"Oh Heero you're so funny! Don't tease me! I know you're not busy. Quatre told me yesterday that you and Duo didn't have anything planned for tonight! Since I already got Quatre, Trowa and Wufei to come, you and Duo have to show up!"
Heero wondered how she had managed to get the other three guys to go to her party. He figured she must have blackmailed them or more likely just bugged them until they agreed to go. Heero then decided that the party would not be all that bad if the other guys were going to be there. Plus, if he did not go, Relena would whine about it for weeks and he certainly did not want that!
"Fine."
"WOOHOO!!!" Relena shouted, causing Heero to wince. "I knew you would come, you're going to have so much fun. Oh I can't wait to see you! I haven't seen you since Thursday afternoon, that's almost two days! So you have to come over as soon as possible but be here by at least five o'clock. OK? See you later Heero. Bye!"
As Heero hung up the phone, he figured he and Duo would show up sometime after 5:30 in order to shorten their misery by at least an half hour. Besides, what kind of party started at five anyway?
"What was that all about?" Heero heard Duo say from somewhere within the huge mound of pillows and blankets that covered his bed. Heero just glared at Duo, silently yelling at the boy for giving him the phone. If Duo had not done that then they would not have to go to this stupid 'party' Relena was having. Heero had to figure out how he was going to punish Duo for doing that. Well, actually, Heero already knew what he wanted to do to the braided pilot. Heero wanted to seduce him. He wanted to run his hands and lips over the boy's body until Duo begged Heero to take him. Heero would then fuck him so hard that Duo would scream his name as pleasure overwhelmed him. Heero shook his head, trying not to think about that since he figured Duo would never want such a thing and he definitely would not do it against Duo's will.
So, instead, Heero turned his thoughts to Relena as he answered Duo's question. "Relena's giving a party and she invited all of us."
"That's great!" Duo said as he popped out from underneath all of his covers. "It'll be fun! I love parties!"
Heero raised his eyebrows and said "Even Relena's kind of parties?"
"Well we can always liven it up if we need to."
Heero just shrugged as he started to head back to his bed, picking up his pillow along the way. Suddenly, Heero had a moment of inspiration as he looked from his pillow to Duo. He grinned mischievously as he just figured out how he was going to punish Duo. Heero slowly walked up to the head of Duo's bed and began to raise his pillow, while Duo, blissfully unaware, was proceeding to snuggle under his covers again. Just as he settled down, Heero brought the pillow down onto Duo's head with a loud 'thump'.
"What the fuck?!" Duo yelled as he sprang out of bed. Before he could register what had happened, he received another whack on the head.
"That's for making me talk to Relena," Heero said as he hit Duo with his pillow again. Duo blinked a few times, clearly surprised that the stoic Heero would ever initiate a pillow fight. He then grinned widely as he reached for his pillow. Heero decided that he was not going to allow that so he tackled Duo onto the bed instead. What followed was a vicious wrestling match involving lots of shouts; laughter; struggling, sweaty limbs and underhanded tactics such as hair-pulling and tickling. Heero could not remember the last time he had enjoyed himself so immensely. Although the situation become a bit complicated when Duo straddled him and attempted to pin Heero's arms above his head. Heero immediately became aroused as he felt Duo's body move along his. Heero tried to throw Duo off of him so the boy would not feel his growing erection. When that did not work, Heero picked up his neglected pillow and whacked Duo in the head with it, hoping this would remind the boy of what they had originally started doing. Duo took the hint and climbed off of Heero to grab a pillow. Heero hit Duo on the ass as he bent over, causing the boy to yelp and whip around to hit Heero over the head with his newly acquired pillow. Both the pilots were grinning like little imps as they traded blows and insults while chasing each other around the room and knocking things over. They eventually stopped, collapsing next to each other on Heero's bed, when they heard one of the guys next door pounding on the wall and telling them to shut up. Heero and Duo lay next to each other, panting and trying to control fits of laughter.
After a few minutes of companionable silence, Duo leaned up on his elbow to look at Heero and say "Was it good for you?"
Heero just smiled and nodded, unable to say anything as he stared up at Duo. Heero thought Duo look incredibly beautiful at that moment. His beautiful smile, his sparkling violet eyes, his flushed face that was partially obscured by loose strands of his hair. Heero reached up to slowly brush the hair away from Duo's face so he could see it better. Duo looked surprised by this move, which made Heero fear that he had overstepped his boundaries. Heero then felt his stomach flutter as Duo leaned a bit closer with his lips slightly parted. Heero was about to lift his head to touch his lips to Duo's when the boy suddenly moved away, getting off the bed and heading towards the bathroom, mumbling something about taking a shower. Heero gave a frustrated sigh when he heard the bathroom door close, thoroughly disappointed that they had not kissed. Heero figured that he had just misinterpreted Duo's actions, that it had only been wishful thinking.
