CHAPTER 4- Being Fools for You
"What the heck's gotten into you?!" cried Mina as she paced back and forth.
"Mina", groaned Heero as he clutched one side of his head. He sat back on the couch, not even moving from that spot since they came to the boys' pad. "Don't shout, will ya? It's increasing my headache a hundredfold."
She sighed in defeat and sat next to him, stroking his arm. "Are you okay now?"
"What does it look like?" he grunted.
"It looks like you ate dozens of ice cream and tons of burgers, your arm is cramped by those games, you rode the 'Twister Twirl' hundreds of times and on top of it all…you're broke!"
A FEW HOURS AGO…
"Hey guys, I'm hungry," announced Duo. The group met a few hours ago in the festival and they were just wandering around, undecided on where they should go next. Recently after they met, Heero and Yaten played nonstop on each booth they passed by. When they were both tired, even if neither one admitted it, Usagi suggested they go ride the ferris wheel and since then, the two boys kept on throwing silent challenges at each other on who could ride the roller coaster and the Twister Twirl more.
"My sentiments, exactly," agreed Seiya. They linked their arms together and went to a restaurant.
"Here, let me help you," Yaten told Mina. He went behind Minako's chair and pulled the seat. She looked hesitantly at him and smiled.
"Umm…thanks," she said and started to sit.
Heero ran to the other boy and snatched the chair. "I can handle that," he taunted. They stood face to face, both of them glaring at each other.
BLAG!
Everyone cringed and looked down slowly at…Minako! She was sprawled on the floor, bewildered, and then anger gradually rose. "GUYS!"
Heero and Yaten looked at her then at each other for a split moment.
"It's your fault!"
"It was clearly your fault!"
"Stop shouting!"
"You stop shouting!"
"You're making her upset!"
"She's upset because you let her fall!"
They were nearly growling when Minako stood in between them. "I don't know why you're acting like children but I'd let it slip for now," she said coldly then sat away from them. As soon as everyone was settled, the waitress came up to their table.
"I'll have one cheeseburger combo and sundae."
"I'll have one big burger combo and sundae."
"Wait, let me change my order to two cheeseburger combos."
"Umm…I'll change my order, too. It'll be one big burger combo and one foot-long sandwich."
"Make mine two cheeseburger combos, two large French fries and one chicken sandwich. With the works!"
"I'll take whatever he said and add two sundaes!
Mina and the rest stared incredulously at the two boys back and forth. "Are you sure you can eat all that, Heero?" she asked him.
"Of course, Mina!" intersected Duo. "He's a big man now. Men like us can work up quite an appetite!"
"And Yaten, too!" exclaimed Seiya. "He can eat a whole horse if he wanted to."
"Whatever you say," the blonde sighed and the rest gave their respective orders.
AFTER THEIR MEAL
"4 thousand yen?!"
"I'll pay for it, guys."
"No, no! Let me."
"Let me."
"I said, 'let me'!"
"Stop! Stop! Those who are in favor of Yaten paying, raise your hands."
"Duo! What're you talking about?"
"Mina, if those two jerks…err, I mean, gentlemen…wanted to pay, let them," Duo reasoned out. Seiya, Taiki, and Rei raised their hands. "Three votes for Yaten!" announced Duo. "And for Heero?"
Usagi, Duo, Trowa and Makoto raised. "Alrighty then! Heero, you pay."
"Hey, wait! Some of them abstained!" protested Yaten.
"Sore loser," mumbled Heero as he pulled out his wallet.
"What did you say?" the silverhaired boy snapped. The other boy just shrugged and gave the waiter their payment.
"That was awesome!" said Seiya when the group stepped outside. "The meal was great and free!"
"I know just how you feel, man," the braided boy agreed. He looked at the two guys behind the pack and saw them holding their stomachs. "You two okay?" he called out.
"I don't know about that, Duo," Minako said as everyone headed to the mall. "I mean, they did eat tons of foods that are fit for an elephant's feast!"
"I paid for lunch, didn't I?" Heero grumbled.
"Too bad you can't pay for brains," she countered. She has never seen him eat so much, she was afraid both of the guys might get sick. "Are you really fine?" she inquired.
"Well, the sun is a bit hot today," Heero excused. "I think I'll go home and rest for a while."
"Not man enough, Yuy?" mocked Yaten.
"Now don't tell me you're feeling great at the moment," Mina told the singer.
"Well, I'm kinda tired from our concert last night so I'll relax at home a bit."
"OK, you guys are going home," she declared and Taiki volunteered to take Yaten back. Heero, on the other hand, refused Quatre's help.
"I can't do it by myself," he muttered and walked to the bus stop. Winner just looked at him and Minako followed her boyfriend.
"Heero, what's your problem?" she queried as soon as she caught up to him. "You've been grumpier than usual!" The bus arrived and he went in without answering her, Mina treading on his heels. When they got seated, he laid his head on her shoulder and closed his eyes.
"I'm tired so don't wake me up until we're getting off," he instructed. The girl just sighed and joined her hand with his.
He's stubborn, she thought as she looked at his sleeping profile lovingly. But it grows on you.
