Ok. I think we established the fact that I don't own Gundam Wing in the previous seven chapters, so from now on there will be no long disclaimers. Well, after this anyway.
Let's see where did I leave off….
Duo entered the pharmacy while carefully carrying the sick, sleepy Heero. ( poor little Hee-chan. ) The braided boy looked around at the many, many aisles of medicine in the drug store. This was a bit overwhelming.
'Well, if I don't start now, I'll never find anything.' Duo thought as he began making his way between the shelves scanning what each bottle to see what the medicines were for.
Half an hour later, Heero decided to become rather fussy. Well, wouldn't you if you were really sick, stuck in a toddler's body, extremely sleepy, and not able to sleep because you were stuck in a pharmacy store with really bright lights that prevented you from being able to fall asleep properly?
Heero began crying that kind of cry that is loud and sounds more like screaming than crying,and he started beating his tiny fists on Duo's head.
The violet-eyed pilot began shushing the younger boy and petting him, trying to get him to calm down. It really wasn't working. Soon the wails had caught the attention of almost everyone in the store. 1.
Duo continued to coo at the toddler while looking for the medicine, but Heero's cries just seemed to get louder instead of quieting like Duo wished they would. Finally the older boy stumbled upon the shelf of children's medicines. Now if only there weren't so many different kinds.
Meanwhile, back at Quatre's place……..
Zechs was running through the hallway carrying Trowa in one arm and Wufei in the other. "Quatre! Quatre, where are you? Come out, Come out, wherever you are."
He had only turned around for one second to stop another of Trowa and Wufei's fights, and the blonde Arabian had somehow managed to entirely disappear. This was so not good.
"Ow!" screamed Zechs as he almost dropped Wufei. "What did you bite me for, you little brat!" At that Trowa bit him and this time the white-haired pilot did drop the two. (Don't worry they're fine)
"I see. So now you two have decided to team up against me!" He yelled as the two giggled and took off crawling. Well, crawling is much faster than wobbling.
Zechs took off after them, completely forgetting his search for the third toddler.
For coughs, for fevers, for runny noses, for stuffed noses, for coughs and runny noses, for coughs and stuffed noses, for coughs and fevers, for fevers and runny noses, for fevers and stuffed noses, for nausea, for headaches, for chills, for sore throats, for runny noses and sore throats, for ok….I'm tired of this now. Etc.
Duo stared hopelessly at the many different types of medicine for children. After a few minutes he was approached by a young blonde girl wearing a nametag that had her name and the fact that she worked at the pharmacy written on it.
"Hi! I'm Keiko. Can I help you?" she asked in an overly cheery voice.
" Um…sure. See Heero, here is sick, and I'm not sure which medicine he needs."
"Awww! What a cutie! Hey, there little guy. Are you sick? That's too bad, but I'm going to help your daddy find you some medicine that's going to make you feel all better." Keiko cooed at the toddler.
Heero glared at her, and Duo laughed nervously. "Uh…yeah..I'm not his.."
"Here ya go!" The girl interrupted handing him a box. "This is just what he needs."
Duo nodded and watched amazed as the blonde bounded over to the next customer to offer her help, still remaining just as perky.
He made his way to the check out trying to get out as soon as possible before Heero could start screaming again.
'hmmm…..I wonder how Zechs is doing.'
Tbc…..
1) Don't you hate when you're in a store, and the baby you're watching starts crying, and everyone starts just staring at you? It's like you want to scream Hey People! Babies scream and cry! And there's nothing you can do to stop them! So stop staring!
Or is that only the way I feel. oh well, until the next chapter.
Next time:
Duo and Heero return home to find that Zechs is in a lot of trouble.
