Chapter One – Hunting
The next morning, Heero woke up to a loud thumping on his bedroom door. Before he could say a single word, Relena barged into the room and pulled his blanket off him.
"Get up you lazy ass!" she exclaimed and grabbed hold of his leg and tried to yank him off the bed.
"Mrpphh," Heero replied, rubbing his face.
Relena smirked at him and let go, "I'm going to have a great day today thanks to your stupidity. I get half the day off because you have to do the other half of my chores."
Heero glared at her and rolled off the bed onto his feet and pulled his yard shirt over his long johns.
"Well no one told you to finish my chores for me yesterday. I would have done them if I hadn't run into D…" he stopped before he finished the word.
"Ran into who?" Relena demanded.
Heero hauled on his boots, "Just a friend. It's none of your business."
Relena made some very un-ladylike noise and turned on her heel, striding out of Heero's room and slamming the door shut behind her. It felt like the whole house was shaking. Heero rolled his eyes and walked out downstairs.
When he got down there his dad was waiting for him. He noticed Relena standing behind him wearing an extremely pissed off expression.
"You can forget about doing your chores today boy. You and I are going hunting. Relena can take over your most important jobs for today as well as her own. I'm sure she won't mind."
Heero had to stop himself from breaking out into a grin. Take that! He thought at Relena and gave her a look that made her even more annoyed.
"Of course Relena won't mind! It's not like she had anything planned today," Heero allowed himself a smirk.
Relena let out a little undignified squeak and ran outside.
It finally sunk in what his father had said. They were going hunting. In the forest. Where Duo was. Before Heero could say anything, his father tossed him a musket and called for him to follow. Heero hoped that Duo wasn't going to be there.
~
As he followed his father along the well-worn trail, Heero listened to the dried leaves crunching beneath his boots.
Suddenly there was a flash of brown and Heero heard his father yell, "THERE!"
Heero swung the gun around more from being startled then trying to aim. Too late. His father dashed forwards after his prey leaving Heero standing on the path, musket pointed in the direction of his father's back.
"HURRY UP BOY!" came the holler from ahead and Heero snapped out of his trance, running after the sound of his father's voice.
In his mind Heero was chanting, please don't be Duo. Please don't be Duo. He caught up with his father and let out a sigh of relief. A deer, it had only been a deer.
His father held up a hand when Heero tried to step forward.
"Let me tell a little something about hunting my boy. You have to be cautious. Any sudden movements will send your bounty heading in the opposite direction," Heero's father lifted his musket to eye level and readied his shot.
A calloused finger snaked its way around the trigger and Heero's father started to pull… when a large violet coloured butterfly darted in front of his face. The man yelled and fired the gun upwards in the air.
"SHIT!" Heero's father cursed and pushed Heero backwards.
Heero stumbled backwards and landed roughly onto his rear. His musket found its way out of his grasp and went sliding along the forest floor. The deer, who had been just as startled by the gunfire as Heero had, fled in a panic and disappeared over the ridge.
"Stupid insect!" the cranky man made a mad grab for the butterfly that was now fluttering around Heero.
"Ahh!" Heero yelped as his father stepped on his toes, "Leave it alone father. It's just a butterfly. There's no way it could have done it on purpose."
Heero's father simmered down a bit and grumbled, "I suppose you're right. Just a bit of bad luck." The man raised an eyebrow when the butterfly landed in Heero's hair, "Seems it likes you Heero. Now we know it definitely doesn't have any brains."
Heero gave his father an insulted look and swatted the butterfly off his head, "Go on you, I'm alright, shoo."
It flitted close to Heero's nose, and then zoomed off in the direction the deer had gone. Heero's father offered him a hand, "Come on. We've got to kill ourselves something or else those blasted women will accuse us of wasting a whole day on nothing."
Heero grinned and took the hand, allowing himself to be heaved off the ground. He looked around for his musket.
"Huh? Where'd it go?" he wondered aloud, looking puzzled.
"It's over there," his father pointed towards the object in question, but didn't go and fetch it. Heero walked over and picked up the gun.
~
After five more hours of walking around and finding nothing, Heero was ready to call it quits. But his father was persistent. They were not going home until they'd caught something. His father had taken the musket off him after his continuous complaining that it was heavy. And indeed it was, the long barrelled gun was almost half of Heero's height.
He tried to stifle a yawn, but his father caught on and frowned.
"What kind of man will you be if you can't last an entire day of hunting boy?" he asked.
Heero resisted a smart comment for it would surely get him punished again, "Not a very good one?" he offered. His brain wasn't working properly because he was starting to get hungry.
"Precisely," his father replied.
Something caught Heero's attention from the corner of his eye, "Father! I see something over there."
His father followed his gaze, but failed to see what his son had, "There's nothing there."
Heero frowned and walked over. He was positive he'd seen something moving in this direction. His father called him to come back, but Heero ignored him and kept walking. He didn't notice the sharp drop ahead of him until it was too late.
His feet slipped out form under him and Heero fell two metres to the hard ground below.
~
Heero was aware that there was someone standing above him. He could smell something fruity scented mixed with the odour of human skin. He searched his mind. What happened to him? Yes. He remembered falling over the cliff. He tensed his muscles to see if anything hurt. Surprisingly he felt fine, albeit a bit dazed.
"Heero?" whispered a soft voice.
Heero groaned a bit and forced his eyes open. Standing over him was Duo, long brown hair tumbling over a worried face.
"Umphh…Duo," Heero blinked a little, to clear his vision.
"Are you alright?" Duo inquired, sliding down onto his knees and peering closely at Heero's face.
It was at the moment Heero realised Duo was naked and turned redder than the tomatoes in the vegetable garden at home. He also realised, with a slight sigh of relief, that Duo was male. He would have been more embarrassed if Duo had been a girl.
Duo stared at him, waiting for an answer.
"Huh?" Heero said stupidly, "Oh… I'm ok."
Duo smiled, "Good. You fell far. I thought maybe your brains would have gotten scrambled… I know mine are non-existent."
Heero looked confused about that, "What??"
"Your father," Duo tilted his head to the side, "Said I didn't have any brains because I like you."
Heero's eyes widened. When had Duo talked to his father? He looked around for the said man. He should be looking for him right now. He then looked up and noticed that they were no longer near the cliff he had fallen from. He didn't recognise this part of the forest at all. He looked back at Duo. The longhaired boy must have carried him here.
"Uhh… alright," Heero mumbled.
This must be some sort of after effect of landing on my head, he thought. I'm imagining the entire thing.
Duo pulled him over to him and hugged him. Heero stiffened and tried to claw away from Duo. What was he doing? It was bad enough that he didn't have any clothing on, but now to hug him!
"Where are your clothes?" Heero asked after Duo had released him.
"You said you didn't like them, so I threw them away," Duo informed him.
Heero gaped, "Oh… but you can't walk around with nothing on. It's improper."
"Improper?" wide purple eyes watched him curiously.
Heero groaned, where to start explaining that. He thought some of the things considered improper were stupid. Like waiting until Relena and his mother had sat down before he was allowed to even though they served the food and ultimately would be the last ones seated.
Heero felt warm hands on his skin and was astounded to find Duo removing his clothes from him.
He leaped backwards and shouted, "WHAT ARE YOU DOING?" He blushed furiously.
"I just wanted to see…" Duo looked down at the grass beneath his bare toes.
"See what?"
Duo looked a bit embarrassed, "To see if I looked normal."
Heero felt relieved and a bit guilty. Duo wasn't trying to do bad things to him. He was just confused. His blush brightened again on his face and he walked up to Duo.
"It's ok… I'll let you see. Just don't tell anyone."
Duo nodded solemnly and watched intrigued as Heero slipped off his dirty yard shirt. Then came off the boots, followed by battered looking slacks. Heero paused before taking a deep breath and unbuttoned his long johns and letting them fall down to his feet. He stepped out of them and was now as naked as Duo.
"Well?" Heero asked nervously.
Duo walked around him and inspected him. Heero felt fully embarrassed and stood there shivering. It was rather cold now without his long johns on. He nearly leapt into the air when he felt Duo's fingers on his back.
"Why are there lines on your back?" Duo traced a finger along one of Heero's scars.
Heero turned around and grabbed his hand, "They're not lines… they're scars."
"Scars?"
Heero had been expecting that, "From cuts to my back… from my father's leather strap."
"Oh."
Heero shook with cold and looked over at the long johns, wanting to put them back on again. But Duo had a different idea. He took Heero's hand and led him over to a tree and sat him down. He then sat atop him, flesh touching. Heero looked away feeling uncomfortable.
"I saw… others like this," Duo told him.
Heero blinked, "Huh?"
"They were unclothed. And they were pressed together like this. They looked happy. I want you to be happy Heero," Duo said.
Heero shifted, causing Duo's lower region to touch his and gasped. He knew that this was highly improper but he was secretly enjoying it.
