Wufei awoke with a jolt, calming quickly when he saw it was Duo's
arms so warm around him. Am I still asleep, his dreaming mind wondered
blearily. His hair was loose in his face and he realized the hair tie must
have fallen loose. Moving slightly, he tried to find it, but noticed it
seemed to wake Duo up, and so he stopped and settled back down. Whether or
not he was dreaming, he wasn't about to risk losing Duo's comforting
embrace. He let his head rest upon Duo's shoulder and against Duo's head,
and drifted back to sleep.
Waking again, Wufei realized he'd slept enough, but that didn't mean he couldn't enjoy the moment. He soon noticed an eye like amethysts and sapphires open slowly. Duo blinked once or twice before yawning and shifting to sit up straight, having already noticed Wufei's wakefulness. "Morning Wuffy," he said groggily, and Wufei smiled.
"Morning Duo," Wufei said softly. "I'm so glad," he continued; whispering it to Duo's smooth, tan neck.
A smile, and Duo said, "I'm hungry." He let his arms drop from their resting places on Wufei's back. Wufei stood and then so did Duo. "What do you want?" He asked Wufei.
"Whatever you want to make," was the answer he received.
"Pancakes it is then!" Duo said joyously, knowing they were Wufei's favorite. Within perhaps 10-15 minutes, a serving plate was heaped with thick, piping-hot pancakes. They both ate silently, but the silence was a warm, and comfortable, one; unlike the brooding, forbidding silence of days before.
"Duo... Thank-you for understanding. And for giving me a chance," Wufei said shyly.
Duo replied with a silly grin, "What did you expect? For me to start shrieking, 'eww, he's gay!' and lock myself in my room?"
"No, I just, I don't know. It seemed like such a big deal to me, telling you. Now it feels right. But then..." Wufei sighed, but then smiled back at Duo. "I'm glad it seems to be working out though. If only for the moment."
Duo scoffed, "What do you mean, 'if only for the moment'?"
"I still have to make you fall in love with me..."
