Black-Angel-001: the only reason this is up in replace of the other one because frankly, i can't think up angst right now...uh, anywho, this is hopefully better than the other one.
I Don't Wanna Wait
Heero paused before opening the door of his apartment. Something was strange about this. He pulled his gun, waited a bit, and then opened the door, not so surprised to find it unlocked. He snuck in quietly, his gun lowered and cocked. Someone was cooking chicken and a green bean caserole. He turned the corner in a swift motion and grabbed the person around the neck, pulling the body close to his, gun put against his temple. He heard a soft cry and started. Heero saw the blonde hair and felt the soft body of a female tremble. He pulled back quickly after realizing it was Bunny. Her face was chalk white and her eyes huge, she swallowed gulps of air. Heero mentally cursed himself (he seemed to be doing that alot lately) and put his gun away. Without a word she turned back to her chicken frying on the stove. It was done. Still refusing to look him in the eye she took a plate from the table. Heero noted with some surprise that the table was set, every fork and spoon in its proper place. There was even a candleholder full of candles that he didn't even know he had. All of a sudden the all important question popped into his mind: Why was Bunny here, in his apartment?
"Time to eat," she said quietly. Heero nodded.
The meal went on in silence, neither caring to say much. To be honest, 01 hadn't thought the girl's cooking would be very good, but it turned out that he was wrong. When he made mention of it, Bunny nodded in reply and continued eating. Heero frowned but said nothing more.
After they ate, Serena began clearing the dishes to wash them but Heero did it instead. When she looked at him questioningly, he responded with, "You've cleaned up enough, it's my turn now." Serena didn't object but settled down on the couch with one of Heero's novels. He sat on the other end, keeping his distance just in case.
"Why are you here?" he asked. It was bugging the hell out of him not knowing.
"Quatre sent me here because he figured I'd be safer with you than at home," she replied absently without looking up from the book. "Is my presence bothering you, Mr. Yuy?"
Okay, so now she was acting cool to him. Wait, what had he done to deserve that? "No, you aren't bothering me. Safer from what?"
"That bastard who was..." she took a deep breath, " at the party that night."
He remembered that night. Hadn't gotten the satisfaction he'd thought he would have from beating the shit out of that guy, but he was still young so he could kill the guy any time he wanted. Heero knew Bunny was waiting for him to say that she had to leave. Instead he got up and walked to his room. He came back a few minutes later with a few of his clothes and nessesities.
"You're sleeping in my room, I'll take the couch. If you need anything and I've got it, use it. Don't worry about asking unless it's locked up. If you need something and I don't have it, tell me and I'll get it. If you're here alone keep the door locked and don't answer it or the phone. Are we clear?"
"And I suppose that I shouldn't talk to strangers either?" Bunny asked him teasingly.
"Let's not take it that far. You don't need to stay up too late."
"Look, I'll take the couch. I don't feel right taking your bed."
"Don't worry about it, I've slept in places that were worse," he told her in his usual tone of voice.
"I am going to worry about it. I can take the couch and you can keep your bed. I insist that you sleep in your own bed."
"You are sleeping in my room; after one night on that thing, you will want to sleep in a bed."
"I highly doubt that," sniffed Serena. "So, now that that's settled, time for bed."
While Serena was settling down in the couch, Heero stared at her back. In a sudden desicion he grabbed Serena's waist and carried her to his room. From there, he proceeded to 'place' her on his bed. Serena's face was flushed. Heero crossed his arms over his chest.
"You ARE sleeping here while you're staying with me and THAT IS FINAL."
Serena imitated him. "And if I decide to get up?"
"Then we do the process all over again."
She smiled inside her head and stood up, intending to move to the door but found herself in the same position as before, Heero once again towering over her. "How many times are we going to go through with this?"
"Don't know yet." Serena supressed a giggle from escaping her lips.
Black-Angel-001: so sorry for this but i couldn't stand that other one.
