December 16th, AC 203

Heero groaned and turned to lie on his stomach, pulling the blanket over his head to drown out the daylight. He definitely did 'not' want to get up yet. He was still tired.
'Not enough sleep...'
Something had caused him to wake up in the middle of the night, he remembered. But his brain was still half-asleep and he just couldn't recall what exactly had happened.
He let out a frustrated growl to give the world a warning that he was so not going to be a happy person today. If he ever managed to force himself out of bed, that was.
Suddenly something fell onto the bed next to his blanket-covered head. Surprised, Heero lifted the blanked up to see what it was and was met by his laptop.
Something about this felt familiar.
"Duo! Would you stop messing around with my laptop?" he ground out, his irritation over being awake in the first place starting to grow into being 'really' annoyed at generally everything.
'Wait a moment... Duo?'
Heero was wide awake within less then a second and jumped out of bed, scanning his room for any sign of the other man. But he was alone.
'Slight sense of deja-vu here...'
After picking up his laptop and putting it away he raised a hand to his eyes and rubbed them while he wondered if everything had just been a weird dream. Things were starting to get a bit frustrating, he decided.
Then suddenly something that sounded suspiciously like a battle cry could be heard only seconds before Duo came falling though the ceiling, landing right in the middle of Heero's bed.
Heero stared.
Duo realized that Heero wasn't in bed anymore and his highly dramatic tackle to wake up the other had gone to waste.
Heero was immensely grateful that he had not been in bed during Duo's impact. Convinced that he hadn't dreamed last night's happenings, he continued to stare.
Getting comfortable on the bed, Duo grinned at Heero as if he hadn't just tried to semi-attack him in his sleep.
Seemed as if he was in quite a good mood for somebody who was dead.
He was still wearing the same clothes as before, just that his coat was gone, making visible that his shirt was a sleeveless one. What had changed as well was that Duo's wings were now gone.
~Morning, Heero! Slept well? Not feeling guilty 'cause of ignoring me last night? Hadn't thought so!~
Even while saying this, Duo didn't loose his grin. And after sitting still for about ten seconds he started bouncing up and down in the bed.
'Yes, definitely in a good mood.'
"Hn."
Heero turned his back at the still bouncing Duo and started to walk toward the door to the bathroom, that was attached to his room.
When dealing with a hyper Duo always try to get away as fast as possible or it's highly possible that he'll involve you into whatever he is scheming.
Heero had already opened the door as a thought crossed his mind and caused him to turn around to face Duo again.
"Is everybody able to see you?"
~Everybody I want to be able to see me,~ Duo explained between two jumps.
"And are you going to let anyone but me see you?"
This brought a sudden stop to Duo's bouncing.
~No,~ he replied.
The answer was a bit of a surprise for Heero. Why would Duo show himself to only him and not at least the other former Gundam pilots as well?
"Why not?"
~Because!~
And with that Duo literally dissolved into thin air, leaving Heero to stare at the suddenly empty spot on his bed and wonder just what this had been about.
- - - - -
While Heero was making breakfast for himself, Duo was sitting on the roof of the house, thinking.
Of course Heero had to ask that question out of everything else he could have wanted to know. Now it was up to Duo, to find a way to avoid answering the question without making it look as if he was avoiding it. Not that just vanishing like he had was the best way to do that.
Duo sighed and started to play with one of the bells in his hair. He couldn't help but grin at the memory of the look on Heero's face last night as he realized just who was standing in front of him.
~Alright, so maybe I overdid it a bit with the outfit.~ Duo chuckled.
He closed his eyes and concentrated. Soon his body was glowing in a soft silver light and his hair started weaving itself into a braid. The bells vanished and a black ribbon appeared instead, wrapping itself around the end of the braid.
~Much better!~ Duo stated ~Stupid hair kept getting in my way. Now what am I going to wear today?~
After a few moments of thinking, Duo decided and the clothes he was wearing started to change into different ones. When he was done, he reopened his eyes and the glow disappeared, leaving Duo in dark blue jeans and a black shirt.
~The luxury of being Shinigami!~ he cheered. ~And now back to work...~
- - - - -
Heero was sitting at the kitchen table, staring into the cup of coffee that was standing in front of him. He was trying to figure out what exactly was going on and how he should react to it.
At the moment he was the only one living in the house, the other three men being gone because of their work. This meant that he didn't have to worry about them knowing that Duo was alive... well, not dead, again. But Duo's reaction when he asked him about letting the others know hade made him think.
He wasn't sure what to make of Duo suddenly coming back from the dead and then choosing 'him' of all people to be the only one able to see him.
'I wonder if he knows...'

I just 'know' that there will be complaining about ending it here...
