| Pizza Hut... Chapter 7...You're still reading this? Well, if you are thank you. We're enjoying writting it. At this point there is nothing written down in which we are following. Just an idea. Thank you again. ~Duo Warnings: None major in this chapter. Don't own, don't sue, oh well poor you Pairings: This is still a 1+2+1. Eventually this will end and I can go back to being with Trowa. Chapter Seven. Saturday Morning. Heero's View. Duo startled me as he pushed open the door. I bring my head up as my hand groped for the gun I usually sleep with. The sudden movement causes a bit of nausea. I fall over backwards grasping my head. I glare at him through my spread fingers. He moves to set his tray down. "Breakfast." He announces. 'It smells so good, but I feel so sick.' I think. "Did you sleep well?" he asks idlely. My mind raced through the dream I had just awoken from. 'After a dream like that? Ah, shit. I still have a hard on.' I grasp and handful of sheets and hind my lower half. "No." I answer him "Had a bad dream?" 'You don't even know, Duo.' I eye him suspiciouly. 'He couldn't be the cause of that. Well he could...' "Something like that." "Tell me?" He sits next to me, spreading that long hair across the bed. His hands clasped in his lap. "Hn." I replied, hoping to end the coversation. "Please?" he whines. 'His whine is so adorable, but I don't want to tell him what was causing me not to sleep. He would freak if I told him I was having sex with him. But I have to tell him something.' I sigh and give in to his pleading violet eyes. "I wasn't sure what I was doing. I guess I was a solider. I was setting eplosives." I start and he listens intently. "I had just finished and was escaping. I jumped over a fence and landed safely. I kept running until I was far enough away. I collapsed into the grass. A shadow passes over my closed eyes. I open them to a little girl hovering over me. She asked if I was lost. I told her I've always been lost. She told me that she wasn't lost, that she lived right off the base with her puppy, Mary. She handed me a flower and told me to cheer up." I look for a reaction in those violet eyes. They were steady on me, begging me to go on. I continue. "That night I set off my explosives. I told myself 'Mission: Complete.' and I turned to go off. I turned around in time to see a large piece of machinery being thrown from the complex in the apeatment buildings. the one the little girl and puppy lived in. I screamed as the building was destroyed." I stop again. I hear Duo's disappointed sigh. "I searched the rubble, looking for that poor innocent girl. I found the body of the puppy, but never the girl. I held the puppy close to me. I never wanted an innocent to die....Duo?" "Yes?" he answers sadly. "What are you thinking?" "I think you're either real fucked up in there, or you hit your head a little bit too hard last night." "Is that what I did?" "Yea, after you passed out, you hit your head on the bar." I rub the lump on my head. He goes on. "I think this is the most I've ever heard you talk." "Hn." "I guess we go back to that. You going to work tonight? I mean you're working a five to nine shift, and you're supposed to be driving. You up to it?" "I'm capable." I say starting to stand up. The pain rushing to my head. I sit back down, holding my head again. Duo grabs one of my wrists, and brings it down. He pushes a small bottle into the palm of my hand. I look at it. It's a bottle of aspirin. He stares into my eyes, his face only millimeters away. I feel his breath on my face. 'I wonder what is going through his head. His touch is gentle. I wonder if his kiss would be just as gentle, I want to feel his lips...' I think, but the moment has passed. He backs away. "I'm gonna call work and call you off. Meantime eat something, go back to bed, I'm closing tonight. You may stay here as long as you want. I'll even drive you home after work, if you want." "Yeah..." I say to him, agreeing though my migraine. I take the aspirin that he gave to me. I lie back down, gathering the sheets around my face. 'I need to seriously think this over. Is this what I want? He gives me a feeling that I like but don't know if I want. Plus I just lied to him, do I really want to start anything with him, with a lie? ' My headache starts throbbing again, and I can no longer hear myself think. I fall asleep to the pounding in my head. To Be Continued... Back to the Library? Man, was this written on the spur of the moment. Not sure where this is going, but it needs to be completed soon. so Onward! |
