bchapter 5 Witchy Things Happen
Yay! chapter 5! (does happy dance!) :) Okay! Enjoy :)
It had been two weeks since the park situation and Hoshi wasn't her usual happy self.
Duo came in the kicken walked up to Hoshi and asked "Hey Hoshiko! Do you wanna come outside and toss the football a bit?"
Hoshi not looking over the sketch boared she was using simply replied "No, that's okay, I'm good. Why don't you ask Heero or someone else."
Duo knew this wasn't like Hoshi. For the last three days all she did was draw and lock herself up in her room, not coming out except for dinner and to get a snack, he guessed to take a break from drawing.
Quatre caught Hoshi in the living room while walking to the living room to sit down and what do you know, she was still drawing! The boys wondered what could she possibly be drawing that was taking this much time.
Quatre sat down beside her to see what she was drawing and what he saw made him smile and want to laugh.
"Do you want to come to the park with me and relax, take a break from your sketching?" Quatre asked as he stood up to leave.
Hoshi didn't even look up but he saw that she stopped to, maybe, think about it. Her hand stopped in mid sketch and she shook her head as she replied with a "No."
Quatre sighed and walked out into the hallway that lead to the front door. Duo and Wufei was out there.
Duo sighed and said "All she does is draw and draw, I barely see her other than when she is eatting. She doesn't even want to toss football with me" Duo made a sad face, which was ulike Duo.
Wufei sighed, closed his eyes and looked down and then brought his head up and looked towards the living room and said "We have to get her out of this house and somewhere else."
Quatre and Duo both spun their heads around and looked at Wufei in shock, he sounded like he cared! Not that he didn't care and he wasn't a nice person, but he found women to be weak, from a past experience...so to him all women were weak.
Duo walked up to Wufei and looked him over and then said "okay, where is Wuffers and what have you done with him." Duo said staring at him and blinking at the same time.
Wufei just shook his head. "I'm here and don't call me Wuffers Maxwell."
Duo smiled and shook his head happily "Yeap, it's still you."
Quatre interupted the two and said "I wonder why she would draw that." he had said this aloud not thinking and had only ment to think it.
Duo walked up to Quatre and said "Draw what...what are you hiding Qu-man??"
Quatre looked at Duo and blushed shaking his hands in from of him, "I ...don't know anything Duo."
"Riiigh. Well I'm going to find out, if it's the last thing I do." Duo said as he went to the living room to talk to Hoshi but found she wasn't there anymore.
Hoshi sighed and sat down on the bed in her room and started to sketch again. She was almost finished with the sketch and then she would paint it and be done with it all together and have it out of her mind. Why?...Why did she fall soo hard soo fast, every time, everytime it happens. But this time was different, he didn't laugh at her or make fun of her when he found out she was a witch. This was all she could do, for right now, to get what she thought of this funny and caring man she had met here. Her heart pounded each time she added more to the sketch and she coudn't wait to paint it. Would she give it to him, or keep it so that she would never forget him. Yes, she would have to leave this place, when her job was done, but she had fallen, without warning, she had fallen for him and she was scared, happy, nervous and glad all at the same time and when she was faced with all these emotions it usually helped her to draw and paint, to make her feel better and more even with her emotions.
The three men were walking up the stairs and they were going to see if they could talk Hoshi into getting out of the house for a bit to take a long break from the drawing.
They had reached her room and Duo Knocked. "Who is it?" Hoshi asked.
Duo smiled and said with as much happiness as he could muster "It's Duo, Quatre and Wuffers, we've come to see if you want to go somewhere, to you know, get out of the house for a break or something."
Hoshi sighed and replied with "No, I'm good, gotta get this done."
The three men all sighed but one of them hid his face as he smiled, knowing who she was drawing. Quatre giggled a bit and just walked down the hall and down the stairs. The other three following and Duo caught up with him on the stairs and asked "What is soo funny that your giggling Qu-man?"
Quatre just shook his head and replied with "Nothing, it's an inside joke Duo."
The three men went downstairs and went to do their own thing. It would be another two days til Hoshi was done with her drawing and painting it too.
The guys, even Heero were going to break down her door today, it was two days after Duo, Quatre and Wufei had come to her door and offered to take her out somewhere, out of the house. Heero was in the front of the group that was making their way up to Hoshi's room. When they got to the door and Heero tried the knob...it opened?? He pushed it open and found that Hoshi had fallen asleep on the bed and was all curled up on the bed sleeping peacefully. Heero made his way over to her, and noticed a painting laying on the floor, what he saw made him...smile! and he is not really a smiley kind of person, but what she painted almost wanted to make him laugh, not that he would be making fun of her painting but of WHO she painted and what she painted on him. Heero thought this person would find this paint...very interesting. He walked over to Quatre.
Heero stopped by Quatre and said while taking Quatre's hand in his "Come over here for a minute."
Quatre followed Heero where he was leading the blonde boy. When they made it over to Hoshi, Heero pointed to the painting, Quatre giggled and nodded his head over to Duo's direction. Heero smiled, one of his rare smiles that he saves for Quatre, and nodded, still holding Quatre's hand and walking back over to the other four.
Heero walked up to Duo and said before he and Quatre existed out of the door "Why don't you wake her up, I think she'll want to go out today." and that is all he said.
Heero stopped under the door frame and looked at Wufei, Wufei looked back at Heero and saw Heero nod his in the direction of the hallway. Wufei followed Quatre and Heero out into the hallway. As the three existed the room Wufei closed the door and slightly smiled to himself, interested in what events may occur in the room, with that girl, anything could happen, she was...how would he put it...different, unique.
Duo walked over to Hoshi's bed and knelt down, putting his elbows on the soft bouncy bed. He leaned in and looked at her peaceful expression and without even thinking about it reached out a hand and brushed some hair out of her face. This caused her to stir a bit in her sleep but not wake up. He smile and shook his, she had moved her nose in the most comical way, he was half tempted to laugh but he didn't.
He sighed and placed his hand on her cheek and rub his thum up and down her cheek as he said "Hoshi, wake up."
She stired a bit but still didn't wake up. He thought about doing something else to wake her up. He thought of her as a modest person, and she blushed easily, he had never amitted it outloud but he loved the way she blushed and when she did blush it made her even cuter.
Duo kept his hand on her cheek and moved his head up to her forechead and kissed her forehead and then when he was done with that he whispered to her "Wake up sleepy head."
It seemed the kiss to the forehead and the hand on the cheek had been the perfect combination to wake the sleeping Hoshi up.
Hoshi stired and then slowly opened her eyes, and looked into a pair of violet eyes, they stared at her, with such longing and care. She was lost in them and she just smiled, that is til the person that belonged to those eyes spoke.
"Hey there Hoshiko, welcome back." Duo said as he smiled and rub her cheek with his thumb.
At this action Hoshi blinked wide eyed and sat up but in doing soo she sat up with such force that she flipped backwards and off the bed onto the floor with a thud and a "ufff" and a "owwwee"
Duo smiled and then laughed as he made his way over to help her up. He just stood there looking down at her with a smile and then said "Need some help up?"
Hoshi smiled and blushed, remembering what she had woken up to, it was a wonderful way to wake up, to the person you have fallen for. She just shook her head and smiled up at him while saying "Yeah, thankx"
Duo hauled her to her feet and noticed when the wind from the open window caused the sheet Quatre used to cover up the painting with to bellow out and make a noise. Duo walked over to the canvas holder and looked at it and then turned to Hoshi, who had followed him over to the painting.
Duo looked down at Hoshi and asked "Is this what you have been working all this time?"
Hoshi smiled and blushed "Yes...and I want to show it to you."
Hoshi bent up on her toes and took the cover off, at the time the sun was setting but cast a perfect amount of light to shine through the window and onto the painting she had finished that early after noon. As the cover fell swiftly but gently to the ground Duo's eye's widen more and more. Until he just stood there staring at the painting. Why? Why would she paint something like this, of him...why? It was too nice, she was being soo nice. Why?
What she had painted was Duo with black wings. He was standing on a rock and behind him was the moon, he was holding a weapon much like the one his Gundam used. He was wearing lose fitting cloths and knee high boots. He had this sweet smile on his face and on his shoulder he had a falcon.
Duo slowly walked what little way he had to Hoshi and embraced her in a hug. Whispering in her ear "Thank you. Thank you very much. It's beautiful...like you are." Hoshi just smiled and hugged him back but then she noticed something wet falling on her shoulders and sliding down her front. Was he...was he crying!
Hoshi ended the hug and looked at his face...he was crying! and she smiled with tears in her eyes. She took her forefinger and wiped away the tears from his face. He took her hand and breathed in deeply as he did he kissed her hand with such lightness she sighed happily and closed her eyes in the gentliness of the kiss. She opened her eyes and she noticed him staring at her...staring at her and getting closer to her face! She just smiled, closed her eyes slowly as he made his way to her lips. He bent down and kissed Hoshi gently and longingly. He had wanted to do this since the day she modled for Sora.
Duo ended the kiss and stood up and looked down at her, while bring his hand up again and rubbing her cheek with his hand "Why?" is all he asked as the last of his tears stopped and she smiled up at him.
Hoshi smiled up at him and replied with "Because...you are my black winged guardian angel." she reached a hand up as she said this and stroked his cheek lightly.
Duo bent down to what Hoshi thought was another hug but he picked her up bridal style. He made his way over to the bed and sat down, with her in his lap.
Hoshi looked up at him and he said with a smile and tiredness. "Lets take a nap, I'm tired. Watching you be soo active and energized has made me tired." Duo hugged Hoshi to his chest and he sighed happily as she leaned into his chest and said "Yeah, I'm still tired."
They stayed like that all night and well into the morning.
Duo woke up with the sun streaming into the big bay windows of Hoshi's room. He blinked a couple of times before the blurriness and the fog went away. Then it all came back to him, where he was at, who he was with, and what she did for him. He smiled, remembering the kisses and the touches, they weren't really sexual but they were private and loving, something that Duo had wanted but not really known he wanted, til now. He looked down at the sleeping starchild, she stired a bit in his arms but didn't wake up. She is such a heavy sleeper, but she is so cute when she sleeps Duo thought as he looked down at the starchild, he smiled and closed his eyes as he tightened his hug around her and she cuddled up into his hug to be more in his arms and warmth, the morning air that morning was chilling and Hoshi shivered a bit. Duo looked around the room to see if he could find something to cover the both of them up, he didn't really want to get up, not away from all this warmth and comfort. He didn't see anything til he looked down at the bed, the top cover was a quilk and it was quit thick too. He reached over the side of the bed and pulled swiftly up to have the covers at the foot of the bed fly up and land on the top of them. Duo wrapped the covers around Hoshi and himself, and then snuggled up in the covers and Hoshi's warmth. Once Duo was warm and satifed he smiled to himself and fell back to sleep.
It was another two hours before Hoshi woke up and looked at her surroundings. She smiled, remembering what happend lastnight and feeling very happy about the events and her piece of art. She had painted the man she fell for, and after doing so she had felt so much better. Her feelings were all together now, she wasn't scared and she felt ohhh soo warm in the arms of the man she is fell in love with. Hoshi snuggled beneath the covers some and rubbed up agaist Duo's chest, to be more close to him. As she settled down in the warm of Duo's body she felt a head lean down on top of her's she smile and took a deep breath and let it out against Duo's chest, this action made Duo shiver.
"Hmmm...that tickles Hoshiko." Duo smiled and Hoshi could feel the smile aganist her head.
Hoshi giggled and said "Well then, I should move then..." Hoshi started to move away from Duo but Duo lifted his head up and tackled her to the foot of the bed said with a laugh "Oh no you don't!" and she laughed.
They layed there, Duo laying on his side and his chest agaist her back and one of his arms drapped acrossed her waist. Hoshi layed there with one of her hands covering his hand that was drapped over her waist and she closed her eyes as did he, they just layed there, not really sleeping but not really focusing on the real world, just lost in the moment of each other's warmth and presence. As they started to fall back asleep someone knocked on the door and Hoshi, without thinking, just said come in. The door opened to reveal Trowa, he walked in and stopped mid way in the room and stared at the sight before him. He smiled and shook his head.
Trowa walked up to the two and leaned down to ask "Hungrey?"
Duo just sighed tiredly but happily and said "Not hungrey, go away Trowa." and he snuggled up to Hoshi more. Hoshi on the other hand finding someone else in the room and a bit new to this feeling sat up, looked at Trowa, smiled and blushed. She turned to Duo and hugged his head and said "Come on Duo, it's time for breakfast, I'm hungrey. Come on sleepy head." she said in a low and tired voice but with a smile. At this action Trowa let himself out of the room to head for the kicken to let Quatre know they were coming.
Duo sighed and knew he wouldn't be able to go back to sleep.
As they made their way to the kicken Duo had taken Hoshi and hugged her to him on his side, she just layed her head on the side of his shoulder and as they made their way through the kicken door the smell of the food woke them up, they opened their eyes to see four pair of eyes staring at them. Hoshi snapped up her head from Duo's shoulder and stepped to the side and smiled at them, blushed and waved "Morning everyone."
Quatre walked up to Hoshi and bent down to hug her, he straighened up and looked her in the eyes and said with a big smile and happiness in his voice "I'm so happy for you Hoshi."
Hoshi just smile and hugged him back while saying in his ear in a low voice "Thank you nii-san."
Quatre looked at her and blinked his eyes. Hoshi giggled and said "Well you all are like brothers to me, each of you different and unique in his way."
Quatre just smiled and said "breakfast is almost done."
Hoshi and Duo looked around and saw that he wasn't at the stove but Heero was!
Hoshi moved over to where Heero was fixing breakfast and replied with "ummmm..."
Heero replied with "I...can...cook, you know."
Duo laughed and walked over to the stove and drapped his arm over Heero's shoulder's and said "ohh, the silent one is rough and tough but he's silent so no one know's he can cook. Makes sense." Duo said as he shook his head up and down smiling his big goofy grin.
Breakfast was done and everyone sat at the table and started to chow down on their breakfast. Everyone stopped eatting and looked as Sky started to shove, or try to shove, everything in his mouth. His mouth was all sticking out on the sides and he stopped and looked at everyone, smiled and said "wat?" Hoshi just shook her head and said more to herself than anyone else, "Why must he always try to stuff his face...literally, at breakfast." and sighed tiredly and shook her head with her eyes closed.
