A Gundam Wing Thanksgiving *A/N: I got most of my ideas from the Thanksgiving episode of 'Friends'. So
don't sue me...Kay? Kay.*

"Why did we have to rent a apartment anyway?!" Wu Fei yelled as he stood next to the TV that Duo was watching.

"I wanted us to see the Macy's Thanksgiving Parade live." Duo answered.

"We could of gotten some hotel rooms you know!"

"They were all booked."

"INJUSTICE I TELL YOU!!! INJUSTICE!!!!" Wu Fei stormed out of the living room thing muttering one of his injustice speeches under his breath. Duo continued flipping channels.

Trowa and Heero walked in the door (which was in the kitchen) and sat down grocery bags on the kitchen table. Trowa went in to one of the two rooms designated for him and Wu Fei. Heero took off his jacket and threw it on a kitchen chair.

"...Too many people in New York..." Heero said as he collapsed on a armchair.

Duo had stopped his channel flipping on a porn show of some sort. Heero stared at the screen with bulging eyes as he saw a girl stripping. He glanced at Duo for the first time with a scared look.

"What? I didn't intentionally stop on this channel!" Duo yelled. "Here, you can turn it." Duo tossed the remote to Heero who quickly turned to a news channel. Duo got up and headed to the kitchen to dig through the grocery bags.

Trowa walked out of his room and sat on the window seat. He sighed.

"...I wonder how Quatre's doing with his sister."

"Probably learning how to knit." Duo said sarcastically as he pulled a frozen pizza out of one of the grocery bags. Trowa glared at him, then turned back to the window.

* At Quatre's sister's house...

"Like, oh my God Quatre! You are like, so good at knitting!!"

"Thanks." Quatre blushed as he looked at the sweater he was making for Trowa. *

It had been about a half an hour...all the guys were still doing what they were originally doing, but Duo was now eating the pizza.

All was silent until... "Oh my God!!! There is a ugly naked guy in that room!!" Trowa leaped away from the window and backed away still staring.

Obviously, everyone ran instantly to the window. Wu Fei ran to the bathroom because his nose began to bleed. Heero and Trowa were looking away, both feeling like they would throw up. Duo stared at the naked guy for a while.

"Is that...oh my God!! This is messed up!! Heero, Trowa! Check this!" Duo pointed to the window across the alley below.

Heero slightly leaned in, followed by Trowa. Their gazes set on a naked woman with the man. They were both talking about something.

- 1 hour later - Wu Fei's nose finally stopped bleeding and he went to bed. Trowa went to bed also. Heero was slowly going to sleep on the couch. Duo was on the window seat still watching the naked couple.

"Hey, Heero...I wonder what their talking about."

"......." Was Heero's response.

Duo glanced towards the couch. Heero's arms were under his head and he was lying down. He was asleep. He looked so peaceful when he was asleep. Like...like a...well, Duo couldn't put a finger on anything right now. As Heero breathed, a wisp of his hair fell across his beautiful fingers.

Duo silently yawned. "Well, better hit the sack." Duo whispered as he silently walked over to the armchair next to Heero. Duo looked down at Heero and smiled. He leaned down and gently kissed Heero on the head.

"Happy Thanksgiving Heero." Duo whispered, so quietly only Heero could've heard it.

Duo sat down in the armchair and was just about to fall asleep when he saw a small smile come across Heero's lips.

The next day – "WAKE UP!! ITS THANKSGIVING!!! WE'RE GOIN' TO MISS THE PARADE!!!" Duo yelled as he ran and threw a jacket on and tried to wake Trowa and Wu Fei.

It was about 15 minutes later and Duo, Trowa, and Wu Fei were about to walk out the door when Duo stopped.

"Is it just me, or did we forget something?" He glanced at the couch to see that Heero was still asleep.
- 28 minutes later - Duo (now having a black eye from trying to wake Heero), Trowa, Wu Fei, and Heero were all trying to get to the front row of people lined up for the parade. Duo and Heero had no idea of where Trowa and Wu Fei were.

"Like I said before...too many people in New York..." Heero said as he about tripped a six year old.

Heero and Duo had finally made it to the front of the crowd and met up with Trowa and Wu Fei. They watched as a few Disney floats went by. Then came...

"And here is Relena Daralian sporting one of our many new fall dresses."

"...Oh, my God! Heero!! Duck!!! Before she sees you!!!" Duo yelled as he and Trowa shoved Heero to the ground.

"GET OFF ME!!" Heero yelled as he stood up. Just then, Relena turned and looked in Heero's direction.

"Oh, Heero! Do you like my dress?" Relena leaped off the float and ran towards Heero just to be blocked and taken away by a group of policemen.

- 15 minutes later - Duo, Wu Fei, Heero, and Trowa had been bored for the last few minutes. All of a sudden, they saw a giant white float turn the corner.

On the float stood a lot of straight couples. One dressed in wedding stuff, another in...

"Is that Zechs?!?!" Wu Fei pointed to someone wearing a maternity dress. Next to him stood Noin in a shirt and baggy jeans.

"ZECHS! WE NEVER KNEW!!!!!" Duo yelled as he about fell to the ground laughing.

"WHEN'S IT DUE?!?!" Heero yelled, slightly giggling. Him and Duo both high- fived each other laughing.

"SHUTUP MAXWELL AND YUY!!!" Zechs yelled back to them.

"Who was that Zechs?" Noin asked.

"...keep waving..."

- after the parade - "Wasn't that hilarious when the 'Under Dog' got loose and floated across the park?" Trowa said.

"Yeah! But I think Zechs was the most hilarious thing out of all of it." Duo said. The guys were heading back to the apartment so they could eat dinner. They had finally gotten to the door when...

"Heero hand me the keys." Duo said holding his hand out.

"...I thought Wu Fei had them..." Heero responded.

"I didn't. I thought Trowa had them."

"Well, I thought Duo had them." Trowa pointed to Duo.

"...Shit! This is perfect! Just perfect!!" Duo slunk down against the door pounding his head on it.

- 3 hours later - All the guys were sitting on the floor around the door. Duo was still banging his head against the door. Trowa was leaning against the wall staring at the opposite wall. Heero was reading some small book he had tucked away in his jacket. Wu Fei stared out the window in the hall.

"......Does anyone have a clue about getting in?" Duo asked.

"Not if a hairpin will work." Trowa stared at the floor.

All the guys looked at him.

"What?" Trowa glanced at the guys.

"Trowa...how long did you know that hairpin was on the floor?" Wu Fei asked.

"Since we walked to the door."

The guys looked like they would pounce and kill Trowa, but Trowa tossed the hairpin to Duo who instantly caught it and started to unlock the door.

As the guys walked in, the apartment was filled with smoke. Everyone began to cough and sputter as they walked into the room. Heero walked to the stove and opened it. Smoke came billowing out of it.

"Okay, who put the turkey in before we left?" Heero said staring at the burnt skeleton of a turkey.

"...I did. I thought when we got back we could instantly eat." Duo admitted.

"First lets clear out the smoke." Wu Fei said. He went over to the window and opened it. The smoke cleared slowly. Heero finally could see Duo enough to tell him 'I will kill you'. Heero didn't see it, but as he walked away Duo rolled his eyes. That's 12,346 times Heero had said that to him.

1½ hours later – Duo had just finished cleaning out the stove and had ordered pizza. Heero was listening to some heavy-metal song on his Walkman. Trowa was probably writing another letter to Quatre. Wu Fei was lazing on the couch watching another parade on mute. Finally the pizza came.

Duo answered the door not looking up as he grabbed his wallet.

"That will be $10 dollars sir." A very feminine voice said.

Duo glanced up to see the pizza deliverer. There stood a girl with a long, brunette braid with bangs (just like Duo's) and deep aquamarine eyes. Duo just stared at her. The pizza delivery girl also stood stunned. The song "Mezmerized" (Author's Note: Just for the curious, "Mezmerized" is sang by Ja Rule and Ashanti...thank you *Peace Out*) began to play in both of their heads. Pretty soon...

"Duo!! For Nataku's sake stop making out with that girl!!!" Wu Fei said as his nose began to bleed.

This, of course, caught Heero's attention right away. He ran over to the girl and began to raise her from the ground with her braid. The instant Heero grabbed her hair, she kicked him in the crotch.

"Oh my God! I'm sorry. I'm sorry. I really didn't mean to." She turned to see Heero on the ground with his hands between his legs.

"...that's okay..." Heero said in the most scariest high-pitch voice he had ever had.

"You sure you okay?" Duo said kneeling on the ground next to Heero.

"Yeah..." Heero finally got up. He glanced to where the girl once stood, only to see the pizza on the counter and a small note on it. Duo went and opened it.

Thanks for the fun, call me at 456-3421 -Chelsea

Duo slid it into his pocket. "Dinner's ready!!!" He yelled out. Everyone came to the table was served and began to eat.

Everyone began to eat, but Duo sat in silence stirring the cheese on his plate with his fork.

"What's wrong Duo?" Heero said.

"Well...its stupid..."

"...What?"

"Well, I'm used to having everyone say what they're thankful for at Turkey Day. And this will be the first T-day I didn't do that."

Heero stared at his plate after Duo said that. "...I'm thankful for...you..." Heero whispered just loud enough for Duo to hear.

Heero kicked Trowa in the shin. "I'm thankful for Quatre." As Trowa rubbed his now sore leg, it was Wu Fei's turn.

"I'm thankful for Nataku." Wu Fei said.

"Feel better?" Heero finally broke the silence.

"...Yeah..."

After Dinner – Wu Fei put the dishes away as Duo and Heero watched TV and Trowa sat yet again on the window seat.

"...It's ugly naked guy! And wait! He's not alone. He's with ugly naked gal." Trowa said.

Everyone raced over to see the naked couple. Heero, Duo, and Trowa all had a 'aaawwwwww' look on their faces. Wu Fei had a disgusted look.

"Stupid American holidays." Wu Fei said as his nose began to bleed.
