Scars
Chapter 3
I kept my grip firm on Duo's arm and hand, which was clutching the front of my shirt. He had started whimpering a few minutes ago, it was soft and breathy but Rashid had the radio blaring so thankfully no one heard it. I carefully wrapped my other arm around the right side of his waist and made sure he wouldn't get away from me when I woke him.
I shook him gently and whispered his name into his ear. Nothing.
"Duo." I said it a little louder, and felt his grip tighten on my shirt. I grabbed his left arm and held it against his stomach. Not very comfortable but he was starting to wake up.
"Duo come on. Wake up." He jerked forward but I held him fast and quickly whispered in his ear to calm him.
"Shh. Its alright calm down, calm down." He was breathing hard and I could feel him slowly un-tense. I pulled him into my lap and held him to me, he was starting to shake and he was crying silently.
He slid down into the floorboard at my feet, resting his head against my left knee. I felt him grab onto my pant leg. This one had been bad, though it seemed to have been a short one since he had slept for nearly a half hour until he had started whimpering. The nightmares had been frequent since what had happened to Heero. He'd been scared to take naps because of the nightmares. The loss of sleep must have caught up to him with the hum of the engine and voices.
I felt his grip loosen on my ant leg and I smoothed his hair back from his face before laying my head against the back of the set.
"Where'd Duo go?" I looked up to see Cathy looking at me curiously.
"He was getting uncomfortable so moved to a different spot." She nodded, glanced over the seat and kind of laughed before turning back around to talk to Quatre.
I drifted for what seemed like a couple of minutes, but when I looked at my watch after the car had stopped I saw that it had actually been thirty. I rubbed my face.
"We there?" Quatre looked back and smiled,
"No, not yet just a little bit to go but we need to fill up, and the rest of us are starving." Cathy jumped out of the car with Noin trailing her.
"I don't know about you but I gotta go!" she ran into the station. Noin just laughed and stretched. I bent down and shook Duo back awake. He sat up a little bit and climbed back up onto the seat, rubbing the sleep out of his eyes.
"We there?" he asked groggily. I smiled,
"No, pit stop. You hungry?" he nodded and laughed.
"Need to go to the bathroom too."
"Well," I pushed him out the door. "Now's the time. I'll be in there to get some food in a little bit, I'm going to converse with whoever will...converse with me. Go." He laughed at me and ran inside.
I stretched the stiffness out of my legs and popped the kinks out of my neck. Une climbed out of the passenger seat and stretched as well. She had her hair down and was wearing jeans and a long sleeved light purple sweater, with black shiny boots that Duo had gotten her for her birthday.
"Only another thirty minutes to go. How's Duo holding out?"
"As good as any of us I guess. Though he's been having nightmares again." She nodded and looked at my concernedly,
"Heero?"
"More of times during the war than anything, but so far I'm pretty sure its been of him. He's seen more of Heero than me or the others have." She smiled.
"They're a good team. Hell, Duo was a hole team in and of himself."
"True. But I just hope this'll help him cope a little bit if anything happens."
"I hope nothing does." I looked at her. She smiled. "He's a good agent. Be a shame to lose him." I nodded and smiled back. "In other words, you care and really don't want anything to happen."
"That obvious?"
"You wouldn't be here if it weren't true."
"Yeah I guess your right. Don't tell Heero if he wakes up though."
I laughed, "No problem."
"'FEI!" I looked over at the little Quikky Mart and saw Duo leaning out of the door. "Come on! Food!" I laughed and walked towards him.
"What'd you get? Enough to burn my wallet?" he grinned,
"Depends. How many hostess snacks would it take?" I leaned against the counter and watched him set snacks and two pop bottles on the counter.
"With you? There's no telling." Duo laughed and set some chips onto the counter. "Nutter Butters?"
"Almost forgot!" he ran off to search, I just laughed. The girl at the counter started ringing the food up.
"You guys going on a road trip?"
"Seeing a friend in the hospital." She nodded,
"I'm sorry. You with the girls over there?" she pointed and I saw Noin and Cathy by the magazines laughing at something.
"Sadly. But their great friends." Duo ran up and set a dozen Nutter Butter packages on the counter.
"All set?" he counted them and thought for a moment.
"Yep!" I laughed and handed the girl my credit card. She rang it all up and handed the bag to Duo, who ran out the door to the van. I put the card back into my wallet.
"Willing to flash some god for us Wu?" I looked over at Noin.
"Can't you flash your own?" Noin smiled at me.
"Would. But she's already drained it." Cathy shoved her over. I just laughed and walked outside. I looked inside the van door and saw Duo already digging into the Doritos his head bobbing along to his CD player.
"Comfy?" he nodded and patted the spot next to him. I moved his back pack over and settled in next to him. He offered the Doritos to me but I shook my head and pulled the Pepsi out of the bag. He shrugged and went back to bobbing to the music. I just smiled and waited for us to start off again.
