Chapter 12
Cookie pulled Heero down the street, entering a jewelry shop. "What did I do to deserve such an idiot for a partner!?"
"Why don't you just go solo?" Heero asked.
"Umm.well.Because Chris is the only one left from my colony. Also, Chris is still the nicest person I know."
Heero cocked an eyebrow; seeing as he'd never seen them do anything but fight.
"Anyways, I daresay Chris is the only one tolerant enough to stick around."
The jeweler handed Cookie her package and she immediately held it out to Heero. Heero looked at her like he didn't get it. After a second Cookie turned to him, "Oh I'm sorry.do you need the same persuasion as Wufei?"
"And what is that?"
"Just a gun to the head.oh damn. My gun is still in the hangar."
Heero chuckled a bit. "Chris is probably reloading it with blanks as we speak."
"Oh come on! I've had a bad day!"
Heero finally grabbed the bag and Cookie pulled him down to the next store. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Chris and Duo walked down the hall towards the kitchen. Duo still had Chris's arm around him, though Chris really didn't seem to notice anymore.
"Little brat. You were right the first time, she's nothing but a spoiled selfish pain in the.And cling to Heero like that! Just what is she thinking?" Chris growled softly.
Duo slowed his pace a bit and cleared his throat. "Umm.Chris? Do you like Cookie?"
Chris stopped and thought about that for a second. Slowly a small grin replaced Chris's frown. "Yeah, I guess I do. She's exactly like my little sister who was killed when my colony was destroyed. Same laugh, and bright smile whenever she got her way."
"Your sister? I didn't know you had a family. Geez, sorry about that."
Chris gave him a small squeeze and mussed his hair with the other hand. "You're sorry for reminding me of one of my more happy memories? You're silly. Yes I had a family. A mother, father and a little sister. Rikki, my sister that is, had long brown hair a lot like yours." Chris ran a hand fondly down Duo's braid. "But her eyes were ((duel coloured)) like mine and my mother's."
"So that's why you're still partners with Cookie?"
Chris dropped Duo's hair and bared a shoulder for his inspection. "No. I'm still partners with her because she's my friend. I stay her friend so I don't end up with more of these." Across Chris's shoulder was a long thin scar.
Duo rubbed his own shoulder imagining how much it must have hurt to receive it. Chris pulled the shirt back up. "Oh! Hey Cara!" Chris smiled and greeted the cook's eldest daughter with open arms.
"I got your letter! Thank you! I didn't think you'd really write back."
Chris patted her head in a childish fashion. "What? And have you mad at me when I got back? No way! By the way, no snack cart?" Chris asked with a bit of a pout.
Cara giggled. "It was taken with tea to the library where Lord Quatre is entertaining Miss Relena."
"Great! See ya after dinner!" Chris winked and left for the snacks with Duo.
