At Gunpoint

Chapter Six: Pants

So once this and that had been talked of enough for one sitting, Quatre glanced at the clock on the wall and gasped. It was six-thirty already. He should of started dinner by then. Quatre inwardly scolded himself for his lateness.

"I- I better get to making dinner… Gomen…" The blonde ran over to the refrigerator and, after opening the door, he stuck his head in searching for something fast to cook. Nothing there… just some milk and junk. Better check the pantry… oh! Look at that… a few cans of cooked chicken… and a bottle of soy sauce... and long spaghetti noodles. There's dinner! Just add a few veggies and… presto! Quatre quickly got to work boiling water for the noodles and chopping some carrots for this soon-to-be quickly thrown together meal. (…Mmm… I love noodles… just like KuraiBeams… and her horribly out of tune Noodles song- um… don't ask…^^;) Duo grinned at the smell of food (or he might have heard what I just said… *grins*).

"Feel like going upstairs…" Duo looked toward to staircase, "I don't know… I just feel like a little nap… Can you guy's wake me up when dinner's ready?" Trowa nodded as the longhaired brunette got up and made his way to the stairs. Once Duo had gone upstairs, Heero followed suit and Quatre looked over and gave him a light smile as he went up the stairs. The moment Heero walked in the door, the other brunette jumped at the sound of the door's small squeak when the hinges creaked.

"Oh… it's you…" Duo sighed and grinned at his newly made boyfriend. "Hope you don't mind me here… while I nap a bit…" Heero noted to himself what Duo was in the middle of doing. Yes… and since his pants were halfway down, that was rather… surprising… when one came into a room... to see someone- with their pants down. Without letting himself gawk at the boy before him, Heero made his way to the desk and took out his laptop to continue writing more in his Journal… this certainly did add to things, though Duo noticed his gaze for a moment and took a few words to explain. "I… can't sleep to well in pants. In case you haven't noticed." The longhaired boy yawned before completing the process of slipping out of his black pants and climbing into his bed for a 'little nap'. Soon enough the boy was asleep and the Perfect Soldier… couldn't bring himself to write anything since his eyes wouldn't slip from Duo's sweet face as he slept deeply and contently. Eventually Heero gave up on ever writing anything like this and closed his laptop, putting it back in it's hidden place, where it was normally kept. For a while, he simply watched, looked at the sleeping angel… then he traipsed up to the bedside and brushed a piece of loose hair out of Duo's face. At the touch, the longhaired male pressed his cheek against the hand of the gawking boy, inducing a blush from the more awake of the two. Heero sat down, flinching at the creak of the bed, hoping it didn't wake Duo. He held his breath… nothing… still the soft sleeping breathe filled the room. At long last, he laid down beside him and let out a content sigh, slipping his arms around Shinigami and drowsily falling into a deep sleep of his own.

That's how Trowa found them when he came to wake Duo… it was so adorable that he almost decided to let them nap. Trowa examined them both, trying to figure out how to wake Heero or Duo so the other could rouse the one who would still be sleeping. He finally figured it would be easier if he woke Duo.

"Maxwell… wake up." Trowa poked the God of Death and his eyes opened. "Dinner." Duo was immediately awake at that word, but soon blushed seeing who had decided to cuddle him during the nap. "I'll leave you two here so you can get ready and I'll see you both downstairs." Trowa walked out the door.

"Hee-chan…" Duo gently nuzzled against his love's cheek. Heero blinked, groggy and confused. He knew that whisper… that warm touch. {{Duo?}} Hee-chan thought before realizing that he'd said it. "Yes…" Shinigami smiled happily. "Dinner's ready… and I need my pants." He blushed saying the words. Ah… what a way to ruin the moment: with pants. Heero almost scrambled back to get out of the way so Duo could become fully clothed… though apparently Duo had another idea first. He gently reached a hand toward Heero's face and leaned in, simply wetting his love's lips with the tip of his tongue before getting up and pulling on his pants.

"Hey Hee-chan? Are we going to the Karaoke Bar after dinner?" Shinigami inquired, taking his hair out of the now messy braid and combing it softly with a brush before braiding it again to keep his hair out of the way.

"I guess… but not right after dinner… later…" Heero trailed off. It was strange how his voice never left that monotone sounding echo. He never really sounded excited or confused or even questioning… it was all just one tone and one sound, though the whole thing never really bothered Duo… he just wished that his Hee-chan would give him hint to his emotions in his voice like most people do. Soon enough they made their way downstairs and Duo grinned at the food before sitting down and stuffing his face like crazy.

"Do you ever eat without the enthusiasm of a thousand angry boars?" Heero questioned eye's looking at Duo skeptically. The quickly eating boy didn't respond since he was a little too preoccupied with his food.

"Done!" Duo grinned, "Please, sir, may I have some more?" If he would have had a tail it would have been wagging back and fourth excitedly like a dog's. So Duo got anther serving and ate it a little slower as Quatre warned him if he ate any fast he'd get the hiccups. They all finished about the same time and left the rest to Quatre. Duo and Heero went in the living room to watch T.V., well, at least Duo did, Heero probably just followed him around because there was nothing else to do. For hours they sat there and then Heero looked up at the clock, noting that it was ten and if they were going anywhere tonight that they should get moving.

"Hey… we better get going… it's about ten." Duo glanced at the clock and grinned back at Heero.

"Hold on…" He said, scooting toward the stairs, "I've got to… um… change…" Our Perfect Soldier just looked in that direction for a while before turning off the television and getting up for his coat, as it would most likely be chilly at ten in April. Soon enough, Duo came down and… he was beautiful. With tight black leather pants and a t-shirt made of light, almost see-through white material that had buttons going down the middle. So that was it… he did 'change' but… it was one hell of an outfit change. Duo noticed his gawk and grinned broadly at the response.

"Should I drive this time?" He casually asked, as Heero still hadn't figured out that he was being caught off guard, and his mask was slipping.

"You." The shorthaired boy blinked and his eyes were almost glued to the back of Duo's pants as he walked ahead of him, toward the door. Those were some pants… very tight on the wearer… so much that it seem as though every line of his rear was in perfect view. Heero shook his head. Where did he get that outfit?! Did it really matter? No… not really since he was simply happy with the view. They climbed on the motorcycle and zoomed off into the dark crystal night, the stars winking at them from up in the sky.
