Valentine's day special:
" A Broken Heart"Price: One romantic Movie, One carton of Ben & Jerry's, and one Chinese Prince Charming
Duo Maxwell sat down on his couch and stared at the television in disgust. He sighed and threw his remote control at the offending images, pulling the blanket down from the back of his couch. He always got so frustrated at this time of year. All the little lovy dovy couples wandering around, making kissy faces and professing their "I love you"s, disregarding all of the single people who delve deeper and deeper into a fit of depression and rage as the day goes on. Duo turned over to face the back of the couch, staring at the cloth until he could easily see all the tiny fibers that made up the dark blue fabric. He was also able to see all the little shapes and impressions on the fabric, which to him seemed to all resemble little hearts.
Duo gave a frustrated yelp and flipped back over on the couch, pulling the blanket over his head. At least last year, he had some kind of company to help him deal with this dreaded day…
" So that's the end of our special report on how the lovely Peacecraft family is doing on this most romantic of days! Happy Valentine's day Everyb-" The TV turned off with a rather loud click as Duo launched yet another projectile at it that just managed to hit the power button; His shoe. Duo stood up and wrapped himself up in his soft black and white blanket, scuffling his way into the kitchen to go find the only two men who loved him in the world; Ben and Jerry.
He stood outside the door, tapping the ends of his shoes against the concrete steps. He wasn't quite sure why he was nervous…after all, the idiot wasn't really someone he needed to impress…
…Until about a year ago…
"Why are you calling me, Duo?" He asked with a grumpy tone to his voice; a tone that was not easily dismissed at 2 A.M." Listen, I'm sorry…I just needed to talk to someone right now…" Duo said, his voice shaky and quiet, as though he was sad.
He sighed, and thought about hanging up right then, but something inside wouldn't let him. With a reluctant sigh, He grabbed his glasses from the night stand, and pulled his hair back out of his face.
"Wu Fei?" Duo Inquired
"…Yeah, Duo…I'm listening." Wu Fei replied in a drowsy, yet compassionate voice.
It was that night, sitting up and listening to Duo pout out his heart to him; listening to him share all his deep and pained emotions. Duo had just had another night terror about his childhood. In the past couple of years, he had been sharing everything with Heero; but now Heero had a life of his own, and a family. Heero could no longer be at Duo's beck and call for a sympathetic ear. That night, Wu Fei heard all about the real Duo Maxwell, and what and intelligent, caring, and absolutely incredible person he was. He also realized that night that he, Wu Fei Chang, Mr. Macho himself, was in love with the little violet-eyed fool of a boy.
So why was Wu Fei there on this lovely afternoon, where pheromones were creating a pink, mushy haze around everything, and heart were practically flying around his head?
' Why am I here…?" Wu Fei asked himself as he looked back up at the door he was standing about a foot away from. He was inches from embarrassing himself in front of the one person who's opinion mattered most to him. Hell, the only opinion that mattered to him. With a heavy sigh, he quickly and somewhat harshly knocked on the door.
Duo was about to take both Ben and Jerry inside of him when he heard the knock on the door. Duo whined a bit, but yelled back a reluctant " I'm coming!" and sat down both the spoon and the ice cream container.
Duo pulled his soft white robe around himself and came down the hallway towards his door, smiling just a bit as he slid the last two feet on the pine floor that lay there. He looked through the window to see who was outside.
Wu Fei stood on the other side, fidgeting a bit and messing with the handle of his sword. Duo sighed and turned around leaning on the door with a small thud. Wu Fei Knocked again.
"Duo…are you home?" For a moment, Wu Fei's heart sank. What if Duo actually had found a date for Valentine's Day? If that were the case, then his plan would have been completely ruined. Wu Fei sighed angrily and kicked the door a bit. Wu Fei's eyes widened when he realized that the door wasn't fully latched, and his kick had caused it to swing open, flinging Duo at him.
Duo yelped as his once sturdy door flew open, and he fell backwards. He was expecting to fall flat on the concrete, but he was surprised when his shoulders hit a muscular chest. Duo looked up to meet Wu Fei's dark obsidian eyes, and a stern expression on his face.
"Very graceful, Maxwell" Wu Fei said in an irritated tone. Duo gave him a sheepish smile and stood up. After regaining his composure, something suddenly occurred to him. What was Wu Fei doing at his front door on Valentine's day? Didn't he have some Asian babe to go home to and cuddle up with? No, of course not, Duo thought. Wu Fei was too much of a dickhead to women…
Duo looked up again, realizing that he had been standing with Wu Fei out in the Brisk February air for about ten minutes. When Duo caught sight of his friend's irritated glare, he blushed and invited him in.
Wu Fei shook his head at the younger pilot and stepped through the door, kicking off his shoes to the side. He looked around the house and found himself smiling a bit. The upkeep of the house actually surprised him. Duo, although an annoying person and a bit of a slob, actually had a very neat house. Everything seemed to be in his place, for the most part, save for the blanket that was tossed haphazardly over the couch, and the remote that was lying near the Television. He quirked an eyebrow as he noticed that the screen appeared to have a small crack in it…
"So, do you want anything?" Duo asked as he leaned against the doorframe in a languid manner, giving him a stare that reads pure boredom. However, Duo's true state of mind was quite different. A thousand different thoughts went through his mind. What was Wu Fei doing at his house today? Why did he seem so off-key…Why was he still addressing Wu Fei while in a bath robe that was far too short for him?
Duo suddenly felt very uncomfortable with himself as he began to slowly get up, trying to be careful not to flash the older boy anything as he made his way to his room. "Never mind for now, Wu Fei…I'll be back in a minute…" He said to Wu Fei as he dashed by him, the back of the robe flying up as he did and giving Wu Fei a rather delicious view of his former comrade's…
"Ass!" Duo muttered under his breath. "How could I have made such an ass of myself like that!" Duo continued to scold himself as he pulled a pair of jeans on under the robe, untying it as soon as the pants were buttoned. His exit had been far less than graceful, he thought as he pulled on a red t-shirt and braided his hair back up. His face was red from embarrassment, not only from his undignified exit, but he was almost sure that Wu Fei had gotten a more than clear shot of his…"
"But…" Wu Fei stammered as he spoke to Quatre on his Cell Phone.
"No Buts." Quatre sternly replied. " You're there for a reason, Wu Fei. Don't lose your balls now, you're already in too deep. If you back out now, duo will be suspicious."
"Are you sure?" Wu Fei drawled skeptically. " Duo's not exactly the brightest crayon in the box…"
"Give him a little more credit…" Quatre said sympathetically. " If you're going to get him to fall in love with you, insults are not a good first step." He informed Wu Fei in a rather annoyed manner. Wu Fei blushed a bit and agreed with him.
"Sorry, Quatre… I'm just not good at this…I mean…what do I do? How do I tell him?" Wu Fei said, his anxious state of mind obvious as he spoke.
" Just relax, Wu Fei…" Quatre replied in a more calming, knowing voice. " When the moment is right, you'll know."
At that exact moment, Duo's door opened with a soft creak. Wu Fei whispered his thanks and goodbyes to Quatre before quickly hanging his cell phone up and going back to his place by the door. As he saw Duo come out of the room, he smiled a bit. Wu Fei may not have always been emotionally attracted to Duo, but he did have to admit, Duo's ass had always looked scrumptious in those tight, black jeans…
Duo blushed a bit and tried to smile at Wu Fei " Sorry about that…I didn't mean to run out on you so quick…"
Wu Fei shook his head and smiled at the younger boy, taking another step towards him, careful to keep his shaking hands concealed from Duo's sight. " Don't worry about it, Maxwell. I was only standing here the entire time." He said, trying to sound harsh. Before he could finish his statement, he remembered the promise he'd made to Quatre, and changed his tone to a more lighthearted one. Wu Fei mentally sighed as he as Duo smile back at him, obviously not hurt by the statement.
"Sorry about that… come in, come in!" He said as he hopped over to the living room, plopping down onto the couch. It didn't matter why he was there, Duo had decided while getting dressed. The point was, he was there. He was some form of friendly company on this far too cold Valentine's day.
