-attacks the speaker box while friends try to pull me back as we pull forward-
"Duo?" Said braided boy groaned softly, blinking the sleep from his eyes as he sat up, stretching and yawning. "Who's that in your bed?" Duo froze, looking at his sister before turning and looking at his side, falling from his bed when he jumped at the sight of Heero dazedly blinking his dark blue's up at Duo.
"Umm..." Duo looked from his sister to Heero and ecided he would stick to the truth. "It's Heero." Hilde was hugging her brother from behind seconds after the admission and she kissed his cheek.
"I can't believe you finally got the-" Duo shoved his hand over her mouth so that Heero wouldn't get the wrong idea. Not that he was adverse to Heero realizing Duo's true feelings, but right now, Heero was in a little bit of trouble at the moment.
"Heero is my friend," He shot his sister a looked from the side. "And he's here because his mother was causing problems for him." With the, he pulled his sister down to the kitchen, wincing when he saw that school had started three hours ago.
Hilde spun and grinned, Duo's face tinging pink. "So why's the man of your dreams in your bed with you then hmm?"
Duo sputtered for a moment before he composed himself. "Well, it's like this..." He then went to explain what had happened last night, giving his thoughts on what was all over Heero's body of which his sister gasped at.
"I used to date a devil worshipper and he never had anything like that! Maybe he's a cult victim?"
"Actually, it's all my dads handy work." The two jumped as Heero walked into the kitchen, his eyes glinting at them through his bangs.
Duo and Hilde staid silent for a moment before Duo burst out with an angry growl. "Your dad did that to you?" Heero flinched at the sharp words and Duo took a deep breath to relax. "Okay, so your dad did this too you?" He waved a hand at the pictures and words. Heero nodded, fighting back the memories that mentioning his father brought. It was a loosing battle.
Heero hummed happily as he skipped home from school, excited to see his mommy and daddy's faces when he showed them the card he made for their anniversary. He slowed a little in apprehension when he remembered the other kids giggling when he told them what he was making it for. The teacher had said it was pretty and his parents would love it, but he wasn't so sure. She made a cord that looked a lot better then his.
He felt comforted a little wen the breeze brought the warm smells of baking cookies to him and he picked up his pace. His mommy's cookies were the bestest! He quickly climbed the stairs as fast as he could with out tripping and was embraced by his mother as she came out to greet him, lifting him up to sit on her hip as she walked back inside.
"How was school today honey?" She asked when she set him down on a chair in the kitchen.
"Really good! I...I made a card for you..." He sheepishly smiled when his mother looked over with a smile. He pulled his power ranger backpack from his back and opened it, gently pulling out the glitter covered card that had him and his mommy and daddy on it with smiling faces. He held it out to her and she pulled it from his hands, opening it and grinning, leaning over and kissing him on the cheek.
"Thank you baby, it's beautiful! Thank you for remembering." She walked over and pinned it to the fridge with a flowery magnet on the freezer portion of the refrigerator.
"I'm home!" His father called as the front door opened and shut, the brown haired man coming in moments later with a large boquet of roses in his hand. His mother enveloped him in a tight hug and gave him a loving kiss. "Happy anniversary." He murmured, handing her the roses of which she smelled with a gentle, loving smile.
"Thank you honey. Have a looked at the card Heero made for us on the fridge." She said and went to work trimming the roses and putting them in a tall vase. His father went over and Heero took a sudden interest in his shoes while his father read it, missing the grin that bloomed on his face. He pinned it back to the fridge and walked over, lifting his son up and hugging him tightly. Heero smiled and giggled when his dad tousled his hair.
"Thank you Heero! It's a wonderful gift!" He kissing him on the cheek and spun around, making Heero squeal in delight. His mother chuckled from her position by the oven pulling on a pair of blue oven mitts.
The two stared hungrily at the pan of chocolate chip cookies that was pulled from the oven and set on the stove top to cool. Heero was set to the floor and he skittered over to try and peer up at the oven but he was still to little to see and he pouted. His mother giggled and pulled his booster stool from off the top of the fridge and set it down in front of a counter, getting another spoon out and setting a cooled pan down on the counter top by the stove. His father went upstairs to go and change into some more comfortable clothes.
"Come and help me scoop out some more cookies Hee-chan." She called, brushing some of her black hair from her eyes. Heero's smile could've made the sun look dull as he crawled onto the stool and began helping his mommy make more cookies that they would eat after dinner.
...
He snuggled into his bed, hugging his Clifford doll close as he settled into the warmth of his bed. He was so happy that his mommy had made his favorite chicken tender and mashed potatoes to celebrate and then went out to go and watch a movie, putting him to bed first with a gentle kiss on his brow from both doting parents.
He was just sincking into the warm darkness that called to him when his window slid open and his daddy crawled in, something glinting in his teeth.
Heero sat up, still groggy from falling half asleep. "Daddy?" He asked softly. His dad turned and the glinting thing in his mouth revealed to be a knife.
"Shh..." He cooed, brushing a hand against his forehead, mussing his bangs. He pulled at Heero's shirt and Heero raised his arms dutifully, wondering what his daddy was doing with his shirt and a knife. The man ripped the shirt up into strands and stuffed some into Heero's mouth, quickly typing one long strand around his head and Heero struggled. What was his daddy doing? He used the other strips to tie Heero's flailing limbs down, the legs the only thing kicking as he didn't have anything long enough to tie him down. Heero's muffled shouts filling the air as he struggled.
Hid daddy lifted the knife, his eyes glittering with an ethereal white light that made him shiver, and began carving, sending stabs of agony through his body. Tears and blood soaked his sheets, but he couldn't do anything, falling into uncomfortable darkness as his daddy crawled back out of the window.
"Heero?" Said boy jumped and looked up into worried violet pools. "You okay? You kinda spaced there." Heero nodded, shaky breaths filling his lungs as he blinked at the stinging in his eyes.
"Here." Hilde said and handed him a glass of water the Heero sipped at gratefully. Hilde kissed Duo's temple and pulled on a jacket before leaving the house.
Duo pulled him into the living room and sat him down on the couch before going back upstairs and getting some clothes for Heero to wear, as he was only clothed in the wonderfully clingy spandex...
Duo shook his head and forced his mind from the gutter, his libido groaning in dissapointment. Watch yourself Maxwell, or you'll do something stupidHe fought the blush back that had bloomed on his face and went back downstairs with a pair of loose shorts and a much to big t-shirt that Heero pulled on when he handed them over.
"Thank you." Heero murmured, pulling his arms into the shirt and covering his legs with the shirt, curling them against his chest and wincing at the pressure he put on his foot.
"It's nothing. So, what are you going to do now?" Duo asked, sitting down on the opposite end of the couch, looking out the side of his eyes at the curled up teen.
"I was hoping to go back and get my things and then go and try to find a place to live..." He murmured, seeming to drop back into thought. Duo frowned.
"I'm coming with you." Heero jumped and looked over at him, cobalt eyes glinting with unspoken questions. "When you go to your house, I'm coming with you, and we're taking my car.
Heero shook his head, a faint smile on his face, before going back to whatever thoughts he'd been sucked into earlier.
...
It'd felt like a slow day, Duo beating back his libido every time Heero looked up at him through his bangs and having to withstand the permeating silence, as Heero wasn't an avid conversationalist at the best of times. To say, it was Duo's personal hell. The man of his dreams walking around his house in a t-shirt that hung off of him and made him look adorably small. And the memory of the way those shorts- no! Not going there!
They'd eaten and waited, Heero turning on the news before Duo's switched it to cartoons, scooting closer to the other and leaning onto him slightly, which drove the braided teen up the wall with the need to jump him.
"I need to go get my things before she gets home." Heero said after glancing at the clock. Duo nodded and went upstairs and taking a quick shower, shoving a pair of jeans and a blue long sleeved shirt and Heero, warming at the grateful glow in his eyes while he pulled on his own clothes of a black wife beater and jeans.
"Mind directing me to your house?" Duo asked as they settled into his black Corvette ZR1. Heero stared incredulously at the pleasantly clean and fresh interior. Duo chuckled. "You like?"
Heero nodded in wide eyed wonder. "How'd you get such a nice car? You family doesn't look like it has that much cash to burn."
Duo grinned. "My sister girlfriends family gave it to me to win me over that they were a nice family. They didn't have to, but they insisted." Heero looked over at him, a faint blush on his cheeks. "Yeah, my sister's girlfriend is awesome! You heard of the Darlians?" Heero's jaw then proceeded to make nice with his lap. "I'm guessing that's a yes. Yeah, their getting married in October, I'm so happy for them." Said Duo while he back out and headed in the direction of the place he'd seen Heero the night before.
"Take a left on Marklane and then a right on Birdridge and go strait until you hit a stop sign and then go right, my house is the fifth on the left." Heero rattled off as Duo drove, Duo nodding in thanks. It was silent for a few moments before Heero spoke again. "Were you serious when you asked me out?" He been pondering, since his sister was like that, then maybe Duo didn't think it was a joke.
Duo looked at him from the corner of his eyes, glad that Heero had brought it up, since he was too much of a chicken to do it since they weren't in school. No matter how much he asked and seemed to cuddle right into Heero's bubble, he was really a shy person by nature, the grins and outgoing personality a well made mask to please the general public. "Yes, I really do like you. But I don't want to pressure you into anything or whatever, but I always thought you refused because it was in front of some class or in the middle of the cafeteria at lunch." He clammed his mouth shut, hoping and pleading to god that Heero would at least consider saying yes.
"Hn." Heero grunted and Duo forced his attention to the road, turning at the right spots and soon he was pulling up to the house, not wanting to take up the driveway just in case they had to make a quick escape.
They went in through the front, Heero cautious and movements slow and flinching, like a scared rabbit sneaking to it's warren while an eagle was flying overhead. The moved into the basement, Heero stepping carefully as he didn't put his shoes on. When Duo noticed, he lifted him up, Heero grunting in surprise.
"What are you-"
"I don't want to have to pull glass from your feet, so, where's your stuff?" Duo looked around the barren room with anger boiling up in his gut. Thiswas Heero's room? It looked more like a place that some slave was kept in before cleanliness was the norm. Dirt, grime, mold, glass...it was everywhere in the cold room.
Heero led him to a small indentation in the wall that Heero had deemed his closet as asked to be put down, of which Duo did reluctantly. He pushed the heavy box to the side and uncovered a large hole in the wall that had four bags and his ratty backpack nestled inside. Duo helped him pulled out the bags, surprised when behind all of these there was a laptop carrying bag that had a laptop and charging cable in it.
At Duo's looked of surprise, Heero smirked. "I got it before my life went downhill." He murmured in explanation. Duo simply nodded and pulled all the bags onto his shoulders, leaving Heero to carry his backpack and laptop. Glass nicked him a few times, but nothing as bad as the cut on his foot, and he was barely bleeding when they got to the top of the stairs.
"Shit!" Duo cursed and pulled Heero to the ground as a knife thunked into the wall just above their heads. Heero stared up fearfully at a man the resembled his father, but it wasn't.
"I've found you..." The man hissed, mutating and morphing into a dark blob with glowing white eyes, like that night when he was little. "Marked One." It hissed, reaching out, the rooms temperature dropped until he could faintly see his breath in front of him.
"What the hell is that?" Duo shouted, backing Heero into the basement doorway.
"We need to get out of here!" Heero said through chattering teeth, though Duo seemed unaffected. Duo nodded, pulling the bags up onto his shoulder as the creature stumbled forward with outstretched hands. "Faster!" Heero shouted, running to the door while the thing followed after almost as fast, Duo slamming the door in it's face before dashing to his car, Heero already sliding into his seat. Duo tossed the bags onto Heero's lap and peeled out of there, breaking a few laws as he raced back to his house.
The two were completely silent until they were all piled into Duo's room, Heero seated on Duo's bed while Duo sat amidst the bags on the floor.
"What was that thing?" Duo murmured, more to himself then Heero.
Heero turned and glanced out at the setting sun. "I don't know, but something's not right. Isn't it only four?" They both glanced at his clock and saw that it was eight.
"What the hell? This is fuckin' nuts!" Duo jumped up and went to the window, jumping back, his hand clutching at the cross at his throat. Heero looked back out the window and felt panic rise in his throat. there was that one lone shadow thing standing in the road, more congregating on the lawn. Duo began muttering under his breath and Heero caught a few words, understanding that Duo was praying. He stopped when a blue car drove past, his eyes reading the license plate.
"My parents?" Duo wondered aloud and Heero shrugged, he hadn't even met them. Duo pulled out his phone and dialed a number, pressing it to his ear. He stood for a moment, his mouth opening when the phone was picked up, the cellular device dropping to the floor and breaking. When did Duo get another cell phone? "They have my parents!" Duo shrieked, running to the window as the sun suddenly disappeared behind the distant plains.
One suddenly jumped up and smashed the window, grabbing Duo and pulling him screaming out the window. Heero back away as more of the shadow things crawled into the room, hissing and gurgling, like they were drowning in hot oil. One reached forward, the rooms temperature plummeting to where his could see his breath clearly, his body feeling frozen as they converged on him, his screams drowned out as darkness claimed his consciousness.
Whew! Well, on to the next chappie! R&R pwease :)
