Hey guys. I'm so very sorry I haven't updated this fic in ages. I know I should update more often but I've just been so busy with school and trying to pass everything. sighs I'm very sorry, but with the persistence of my reviewers and the threat of getting… "annoying" e-mails every week I decided that you have suffered enough and deserve a new chapter. If it's short I'm sorry. Most of my chapters are short cause I haven't had Window's word processor working but now it is so…Here's the new chapter of Cops and Lovers!
A few weeks went by. Duo's father, David, was still held up in his meetings out of state and Duo really couldn't of been happier. He was getting to spend more of his time with Heero, when Zechs wasn't around. Quatre had taken up his time by spending it with Trowa and every now and then he'd check up with Duo to see how things were going. So far so good…Right?
"Heero?….Hey. This is Duo…Would you mind coming over for a little while. Zechs has been trying to get in and I'm getting kinda freaked. He won't leave….I just hope you check your answering machine soon….Bye…" Duo sighed and hung up the phone and stared at it mournfully. Heero hadn't been able to come over the last three days. There had been a serious accident and it hit close to home for Heero. Heero told him that there'd been a wreck and that was it. Duo hadn't heard from him since.
"Master Duo? Sir Mr. Zechs is on the phone. Should I take a message for you," Sam asked from the door way of the living room.
"Yes thanks, Sam…Oh…and could you call Heero's house again for me? I'd appreciate it," Duo smiled slightly.
" Yes Master Duo," Sam bowed.
"Sam? Stop calling me master will ya? You make me feel old," Duo grinned.
"Alright….Duo," Sam smiled slightly before leaving the living room and doing as requested.
"Where are you Heero," Duo sighed, hearing the door bell ring again.
Two days later
"Heero you haven't been to work and you haven't called back….I don't know if I should start worrying or not…..Heero please pick up. Please," Duo sighed against listening to the answering machine beep signaling that he'd run out of time.
" Did I do something wrong," Duo asked himself flopping onto the couch.
"What wrong could you of done?"
"HEERO," Duo asked wide eyed and running and hugging the older man.
"I take it I was missed, ne" Heero smiled and hugged Duo back.
"Where were you? I've been calling and calling and then I called your work and they wouldn't say anything. I…I got worried," Duo blushed slightly.
" I thought I told you….I went down to Florida to visit my family…This past weekend was the anniversary of my parent's death. I thought it'd be nice to go see them. I didn't mean to worry you," Heero said softly.
"Oh…I didn't know. I'm sorry," Duo said biting his lower lip.
"There's nothing to be sorry for," Heero said offering a small smile.
"You should smile more often Heero. It looks good on you," Duo smiled.
"You think so," Heero asked, raising an eyebrow.
" I know so," Duo smirked raising his chin in the air.
" I'll take your word for it…Now what's this I hear about Zechs bothering you," Heero asked, leading Duo to sit down on one of the overly stuffed leather couches.
"He's just coming around a lot more. He's knocking on my doors and ringing the doorbell constantly and he calls at ungodly hours of the night and I'm getting annoyed and I was starting to worry that he might try something to get into the house," Duo said.
" I've told my supervisor to watch this house. Zechs won't get inside without your permission. If he does he'd have a lot to answer to…Like me," Heero said.
"Like you? What would you do Heero to show him that I don't like him," Duo asked.
"Well…I'd do this," Heero said, pressing his lips against Duo's.
" Mmm," Duo "said" wide eyed.
"S-sorry. I should of asked first," Heero stammered.
" I didn't mind," Duo smiled slightly.
"Can I do it again," Heero asked.
" Please do," Duo breathed, just before Heero pressed their mouths together again.
What ya think? I typed it up quickly so I wouldn't forget what I wanted to do. You like? Review and tell me and hopefully I won't wait 7 months before updating again, ne?
