~~~The Blanket War~~~
Heero's eyes slowly opened as a beam of sunlight kissed his face. He groaned and rolled over, ignoring the afternoon sun's friendly greeting. As price to pay for rejecting the sun, Heero felt a chill rise through his body and made him extremely uncomfortable. He turned toward the sun and squinted his eyes. Heero reached for the covers in order to shield his sensitive eyes, but the blanket was playing hard to get and it refused to come. He lifted his head in frustration to scan for the disobedient blanket, but it was nowhere to be found. Well, at least not to be found on his side of the bed. Heero bared his teeth as he glared at the thief.
Duo was snuggly wrapped in a blanket cocoon with a wide, innocent smile on his face. His back was turned to Heero and his face was warmed by the cheerful sunlight. Heero shivered from coldness and rage. He yanked hard on "Duo's" blanket, sending Duo rolling across the bed into Heero's unwelcoming arms. After getting his half of the blanket, Heero pushed the dizzy and confused Duo away from him and back to the other end of the bed. Heero allowed the blanket to submerge him while he situated himself in a comfy position with a victory grin on his face.
Duo lay on his back with his eyes blinded by the sun's snickering. He gaped at the blanket only to realize that his half was reduced to nothing. Duo narrowed his eyes and stuck out his lower lip at the traitor. Duo tugged hard and reclaimed the entire blanket. Ah, nice and comfy. Too bad Duo didn't notice the giant vein popping out of Heero's forehead. Without any warning, Heero fiercely snatched the blanket and punched Duo off the bed.
"Ow! Hey, Heero!" Duo sat up from the floor and rubbed his throbbing head. His legs wobbled as he stood to his feet while leaning against the bed for support. "What was that for?!" Heero remained silent except for his well-known "Hn" reply. "Ohhh… I see how it is…"
Duo grabbed "Heero's" blanket and gave it one good tug. Heero's sleepy eyes popped open as his body flew off the mattress and on top of the braided baka. Duo didn't plan that part; he now had a blanket, but he also had a Heero that came along with it.

"Did you hear something?" Hilde turned away from the TV and looked around.
"Hear what?" Quatre asked with concern.
"I thought I heard a crash."
Relena entered the living room with a cup of tea in her hand. "A crash?"
"Yes," confirmed Hilde.
"I heard it too," Trowa lifted his head. "It sounded like it came from upstairs."
"Maybe we should check it out." Relena placed her teacup on the coffee table. "Heero could be in trouble!" And with that, she took off and dashed upstairs. Hilde shrugged at her friend's haste and quickly gave chase.
Quatre slowly stood up and gently stretched his arms above him. "So, shall we follow them?" No answer… Wufei was in a state of suspended animation and was determined to ignore the drama queens, while Trowa… well, he doesn't need a reason to be silent; he's Trowa! (^-^;;) Quatre sighed. "Don't you want to help the girls or at least find out what made that noise?" Silence.
*~*~*~*
"Ow! Heero, your knee is digging in my hip!" Duo complained with Heero still on top of him.
"Then let go of the blanket." Heero thrust his other knee into Duo's ribs.
"No!" Duo fought back a cry of pain as he refused to give up. "Get off me!" He tightened his grip on the blanket and began to push against Heero's chest.
Heero firmly hung on Duo's waist. "Don't make me hurt you even more, Duo." He was determined to reclaim the blanket.
"I'm not letting go…" Duo's tone was serious; he was not going to let go for anything. That is, until he noticed where Heero's hands were. "Whoa! Hey! Don't touch me there!!" Duo immediately struggled fiercely, trying to wiggle free from Heero's grip.
Just then the door slammed open. Relena and Hilde scuttled inside only to find the boys tangled together on the floor. Duo and Heero froze entirely as their eyes widened to the size of apples.
"Nothing happened!" Duo protested as he turned a shade of pink. Heero loosened his grip and kicked Duo away, sending him sliding across the room.
After a long pause of confusion and shock, Hilde broke the silence, "I think nap time is over for you two."
A/N: That's it for this chapter. It was kinda short, I know. But the next one will be longer. And I'll try to update quickly. So, no worries! To all the Wufei-fans out there: sorry that he didn't have any lines! ^___^;;;
