Little Heero
Chapter 4
Heero tried to get down off of the chair he was sitting on to go answer it, only Rose tsked him. "You stay there, no need to get up, especially with the way you've been lately.", she said.
"Yeah, Heero, you know you really shouldn't.", Duo muttered, shaking his head back and forth.
"Yeah right, Duo.", Heero replied holding his hand out, "Like you should be telling me that.",
"Well, at least I can go back to being my actual size anytime I feel like.", Duo pointed out.
They were both then interrupted by Rose answering the door. "Ron? Ron...", she muttered at the chestnut brown haired person at her door, "Ron! You good for nothing, lazy idiot!",
"Nice to see you too honey, I just, well, you know....", Ron started.
"Don't you sweet talk me mister!", Rose yelled at him, "Taking our son out into the human world when he was just a baby, then taking a long vacation in Iceland!",
"But, but, rosebud.... I- I can explain everything!", Ron said, getting on his hands and knees, "Rosy honey look, I'm begging!",
"That's it! I'm going to have to pay a nice long visit with your Mother.....", Rose started.
"I'm gravelling! Gravelling! I'll be your hand and foot maid for a month, just don't tell Mother!", the pitiful thing cried.
"Oh, stop it right now, you big baby! You're already becoming a bad example on our son....", Rose sighed.
"Our.... Son?...", Ron looked baffled, "Oh, I see him, he's got my hair, my face structure.... Your eyes, your hands, your legs, and yes, he even has the same birthmark on his right wing.",
"Really? Are you sure? I don't know... It looks like a smudge, or a trick of light....", Rose muttered.
"You mean, that's.... My Dad?", Duo gulped.
"Yes, unfortunately, that baka is your Dad, and the one you take the most after in personality.", Rose admitted.
"Yes, right down to the big mouth, and pitiful begging, I'd say so.", Heero said.
"Heero, don't start...", Salidia warned.
"Right, I'm not, I'm only saying the truth.", Heero held up his hands defensively.
Ron stepped in for a closer look at Heero. "You must be Salidia's boy, and afflicted with the shrinking spirit.", Ron said.
Heero just gave Ron his death glare. "Nice kid, not a people's person, but, still nice.", Ron gulped.
"Thank- you, I really do think he takes after his ass of a Father, Gabriel, but....
Well, you know.", Salidia shrugged.
"You divorced him I heard.", Ron told her.
"You're damn right I did!", Salidia nodded, "He deserved what was coming to him.",
"I... See, oh, and how's your Father, finally got that job at the academy I heard also.", Ron nodded proudly.
"Ah, yes, flight instructor.", Salidia sighed, "Heero takes right after him in that part of it.",
"He flies like his Grandfather? Wow, I'd never think someone could even be half as good as Terrence Wingfeather, and to think a Grandson he's never met could possibly be as good at it.", Ron replied.
"Yes, well, Dad was a wonderful man.", Salidia said, "I've been wondering, though, he is a bit old for if it wouldn't be bothersome to have him being taught there.",
"No, you're probably doing fine.", Ron said, "Your Dad would be happy to know that his Grandson takes after him.",
Heero, in the meantime was having a bit of a difficult time adjusting to his height problems. "I can't even get up in a chair anymore, damn it.", Heero muttered to himself.
"Awe, here, let me help you little brother.", came an all too familiar voice.
"You.", Heero growled.
"Me? Me what? I'm back, and I'm going to tease you like heck now that I am.", David replied.
Heero just glared up at David Wingfeather, the scowl across his face plainly telling him to buzz off. "Okay, I can see where I'm not welcome.", David said turning away, "I did get a high paying job though....",
"Fine, you can stay here, just.... Just help me get up into that chair, David.", Heero demanded.
"You are quite the little hot head aren't you?", David said, politely.
"Not funny.", Duo told him.
"Oh, hi, Maxwell.", David yawned, "I was just heading outside to take a snooze.",
"No, I'll just stay here with Heero, suppose ta keep an eye on him just in cause his shrinking speeds up.", Duo informed.
"Not my problem, I'm just a big brother and my two job descriptions are to one bug the hell out of him, and be a couch when it comes to love.", David said.
"Lucky.", Duo muttered.
So, it fell into night, and Heero slept actually on the couch, and by morning he was about the size of a newborn infant.
