(1x2, mild yaoi)
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~*~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
"Hey Heero! Come and look at this!"Duo shouted. The G-boys were all staying at one of Quatre's rented homes in Egypt. Quatre, Duo, and Heero were all wandering around exploring the market place while Trowa and Wufei stayed at the house. Duo was inside one of the little shops bending over a display of little artifacts. Heero walked over slowly. Acting as if he didn't give a damn anyway. "What do you want?" Heero carefully looked over Duo's shoulder. Duo was holding a small jade beetle in his palm.
"It's a scarab,"said the old man behind the counter. "The scarab is the representation of the sun's protective rays. That one is special however. It has some sort of ancient spell on it I believe."
"What sort of spell?"Duo asked. He violet eyes were flashing with curiosity as he leaned farther over the counter. Heero rolled his eyes and stalked away. The old man crooked his finger at Duo and motioned for him to come closer even though Heero was the only other person in the store. Duo leaned so far over his feet weren't touching the ground. Heero was sure that he would shatter the glass of the display case. The old man's eyes looked around suspiciously as if he didn't want anyone else to hear what he was about to say.
"A love spell,"the old man whispered next to Duo's ear.
"A love spell!"
"Shhhhhh!"the old man put his finger to his cracked lips. "Whoever buys it is supposed to find his or her true love." Heero rolled his eyes as he saw Duo's eyes get impossibly wider.
"Pure fantasy,"Heero muttered.
"Oh shuttup Heero,"Duo shouted, swiveling his head around to glare at Heero. "Just because you don't believe in anything don't try to spoil my fun. How much mister?"
"I believe in something."
"Twenty dollars."
"Oh yeah like what?"Duo challenged as he handed the old man some money.The old man took the small scarab beetle from Duo and wrapped it in dark green tissue paper and put it in a small black box. Duo put it in his pocket. "Well Heero? What do you believe in?"
"I believe in living,"Heero muttered as they left the small shop.
"Whatever. Hey Quatre!" Quatre turned around to face them. Quatre had been looking at some tiny pyramid figurines on a small stand in the street.
"I was wondering where you two had run off to,"he said smiling. "Did you buy anything?"
"Yeah Duo bought some useless little beetle."Heero said as he walked away. Duo stared angrily at Heero.
"You're just mad cuz you don't have faith in anything!"Duo shouted back at Heero.
"Come on,"Quatre mumurred as he grabbed hold of Duo's hand and dragged him towards Heero. "Heero where are you going? We were suppossed to go see the pyramids remember?"
"I changed my mind,"Heero said.
"Yeah me too. I don't wanna see some stupid pyramids."Duo said glaring at his feet.
"Alright. I'll meet you guys back at the house later,"Quatre said as he walked away. Heero and Duo walked all the way to the house in complete silence. When they walked inside there was a note from Trowa and Wufei. The note said they had gone off to buy some groceries.
"I guess I'm stuck here with you all day,"Duo said as he walked into the dining room. He didn't even bother to open the shades to the windows or turn on the light. Duo sat in one of the straight backed chairs, propped his long legs up on to the table, and pulled out the black box from his pocket. Heero stalked up the stairs to his room and started to type away on his laptop again. 'Heero's way too stubborn,'Duo thought. 'But maybe I was being a little too mean.'
Duo turned the scarab around in his palms. He ran his fingers over it, feeling it's smooth texture. The jade almost seemed to be glowing a little. Duo laughed at himself for thinking such a crazy thing. He looked at the scarab again. It was indeed glowing softly. Duo kicked his legs off the table and looked at the scarab in his hands. It seemed to be glowing brighter. Soon the whole dining room was illuminated by the green glow the scarab was giving off. "What the hell?"Duo whispered.
~~~~~~~~~~*~~~~~~~~~~
"Hey Duo?"Heero shouted as he walked down the stairs. "Are you still here?" No answer. Heero had been in his room for two hours, and it finally hit him that the house was too quiet. He hadn't heard the door or the television. He became uneasy. Duo was always usually hyperactive and running around the house. Heero walked into the front hall. No one there. He walked into the living room. Empty. He slowly walked into the dining room. It was dark in the room and he almost didn't notice Duo slumped over the table.
"You idiot. Did you fall asleep in here?"he whispered as he walked over next to Duo's chair. "Come on Duo wake up. Geez can't you take the desert heat?"he said as he shook Duo gently by his shoulders. One of Duo's arm slid off the table and dangled at his side. Heero pulled Duo up and pushed him against the back of his chair. "Duo wake up!"he shouted. He was getting more worried. Duo didn't move. His mouth was half open, and his forehead was wet with sweat. Heero could hear him breathing irreguarly. Duo eyes were squeezed shut. Heero put his hand behind Duo's head, and his other on Duo's forehead. Duo had a fever. Heero sighed with relief. For awhile Heero thought that Duo had died.
Heero put his right arm behind Duo's knees, and his left arm behind Duo's back, and picked him up. It struck him that this is the way that princes carried off princess'. he ignored that sudden information and carried Duo out of the dining room and up the stairs. He nudged Duo's room open with the edge of his foot and walked towards Duo's bed. He was about to lay Duo on the bed when Duo groaned suddenly. Duo's eyes squeezed tighter and Duo's arms instantly found there way around Heero's neck. Heero cried out it surprise. Duo was gasping for air. Shivers ran down Heero's spine as he felt Duo's hot breath on his neck and ear. Duo's grip tightened around Heero's neck.
"Duo,"Heero whispered. Heero looked down at Duo's long braid. It struck him suddenly how much he would love to run his fingers though Duo's hair. To brush it and carefully braid it again. Heero bent over and placed Duo on the bed. He tried to stand back up too quickly and Duo's arms around his neck pushed him back down. Heero fell down on top of Duo's lithe and still body. Heero, eyes wide, held his breath. His face was inches away from Duo's now. Heero could feel Duo's breath on his cheek. Without realizing it Heero stared fixedly at Duo's mouth. Duo's lips were full and soft. Heero ran his thumb along the length of Duo's lips. Heero was overcome with the urge to kiss Duo.
Duo groaned in pain again and Heero looked up at his eyes. They were still squeezed shut. He never noticed what lovely eyelashes Duo had. They were long and curled up gracefully. 'I hafta get off of him before I rape him,'Heero thought. This little statement surprised him. He looked back at Duo's mouth. He had never thought about Duo this way before, and he was sure Duo never thought of it vice versa. Heero put his hands flat on the bed on either side of Duo and eased himself up. Duo's grip around Heero's neck loosened somewhat, but he still wouldn't let go. Heero was now bending over the bed with Duo hanging from his neck. Duo's head was falling back, unconciously, revealing his luscious neck to Heero. Heero stared down at Duo's adam's apple, the little bump protruding from Duo's supple skin.
Heero couldn't take it anymore. Heero wrapped his arms around Duo's back, and stood up. He held Duo close against him. Heero kissed Duo's closed eyelids and cheeks. Heero eased down to his knees. Duo's head fell back, revealing ,again, that sensual adam's apple. Heero leaned his head down and kissed it. He heard Duo moaning with pleasure. He began to kiss and bite at Duo's neck and got started giving him a hickey. Heero sucked at the junction between Duo's neck and shoulder. Duo's hands grabbed the back collar of Heero's shirt. His small nails scratching Heero's skin somewhat. Heero lay Duo down on the floor before him and ripped Duo's shirt off. He threw the shirt in the corner. Heero looked down at Duo's little pink nipples. He leaned down on top of Duo and sucked and bit at them. He could hear Duo's breath become more ragged and shallow. Heero moved down and licked the mound of Duo's abdomen, and dipped his tongue into Duo's navel. Duo desperately grabbbd at Heero's hair. Duo was panting harder.
Heero cupped the sides of Duo's face with his hands and kissed his mouth. Heero's tongue penetrated Duo's mouth and Heero explored every bit of it. Duo's lips were soft and sweet. They tasted sweet. Duo's face flushed more. Heero felt like he was about to explode. He could feel his arousal become harder. He unbuttoned Duo's shorts and pulled them down to his ankles, revealing Duo's cute little plaid boxer shorts. Heero bit at Duo's earlobes while he stroked Duo's own erection through his thin boxers. 'So Duo's enjoying this as well,'Heero thought with a grin. Up until now Heero had completely forgotten about his own clothes. He hastily snatched off his own shirt and shorts. (Heero wears briefs ^_^)
He stopped. He looked at Duo underneath him, and felt guilty. What would Duo say if he were to wake up and see another boy, nearly naked and bending over him. Heero still desperately wanted to kiss every piece of Duo's flesh but not like this. Not when Duo's unconcious. Ignoring his lust he picked up Duo and layed him down on his bed. He pulled the thin white sheet over Duo's chest. Duo groaned again and rolled over on his side. Heero watched Duo's legs move seductively under the sheet. He still desired him terribly.
He stared down at Duo for awhile before putting his clothes back on. He moved his desk chair over next to his bed. Heero checked his watch. It was 8:27 p.m. . 'Where the hell is everybody?'he thought. 'They've been gone for hours.' Heero watched over Duo for awhile, and wiped the sweat from his brow.
~~~~~~~~~~*~~~~~~~~~~
"BEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEP!!!!!"
"AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAH!!"Heero screamed. He had fallen asleep earlier but he was wide awake now. His lolling, sleeping, head had been right next to his alarm clock on the shelf. He looked at the alarm clock. It was 8:00 a.m. . Heero rubbed the back of his aching neck. He sighed, remembering earlier events, and he wondered when the others came back, if they ever did. He rubbed his eyes with his fingers sleepily, and yawned. He was just about to lean back against the chair for some more sleep, when he looked over and saw Duo looking at him. Heero nearly fell off his chair. Duo looked like he had been up for awhile. Heero's eyes were as big as saucers, and Duo just smiled serenly back at him.
"Good morning,"Duo whispered.
"Hnm,"Heero replied. "When did you wake up?"
"An hour ago."
"Do you feel better?"Heero asked.
"Yes, much better. Especially after the dream I had,"Duo said as he rolled on to his back and stretched his arms above him.
"What dream?!?!"Heero bellowed, standing up quickly. Duo squealed in surprise and stared with big innocent eyes at Heero.
"Just a regular dream,"he murmurred. Heero coughed into his hand and turned around.
"Well I'm glad you're feeling better. Anyways see you downstairs,"Heero muttered as he walked out. Duo watched Heero leave in confusion.
~~~~~~~~~~*~~~~~~~~~~
"So did you have a nice sleep last night?"Quatre asked as he stirred the pancake mix. "Will you stop eating the blueberries Wufei!" Wufei had been caught redhanded snatching some blueberries from a little bowl. There was blue goo all over his mouth and chin. Duo chuckled as Quatre chased Wufei out of the kitchen with a wisk. Duo was playing with the end of his braid which was slung over his right shoulder.
"I slept great,"Duo replied. "Except I had this really crazy dream."
"What did you dream about that was so crazy?"Quatre asked.
'There's Quatre for ya,'Duo thought as he popped a blueberry into his mouth. 'Usually so levelheaded and understanding. Not at all like hot headed Heero.' "I dreamt that someone was kissing and touching me all over."
"Did you dream who was doing it?"Quatre asked. He was blushing red. Duo chuckled.
"You are such a prude Quatre."
"I am not!"he cried. "Don't make me throw you out of here too."
"Hey maybe you can scare Wufei off with that wisk but not me. Member I am the God of Death."
"So did the "God of Death" dream who was molesting him in his dream?"Quatre pressed. Duo paused, not knowing if he should say more. He popped another blueberry in his mouth.
"It was Heero,"Duo replied calmly.
"WHAT!" Quatre nearly slipped. He was taking by surprise by Duo's statement, but he quickly recovered. "Are you sure?!?!"
"Positive. It was really weird. The last person I'd expect to have a sexual dream about is Heero."
"Who would be the first?"
"Why you of course Quatre darling,"Duo whispered in his ear before he walked out.
"AAAAAAAAAAH!!"Quatre screamed. All the people sitting at the table in the dining room were staring wide eyed at the kitchen door as loud crashes could be heard. Duo chuckled again as he walked out of the kitchen, leaving Quatre in total chaos.
'Guess Quatre isn't so levelheaded after all,'Duo thought as he sat down at the dining table next to Trowa. Duo looked over at him. Trowa sat there sipping tea and reading the paper. Wufei was across from Duo contemplating how he was going to steal more blueberries. In walked Heero. "Good morning Sunshine!"Duo called to him.
Heero muttered a "Hn." before sitting down next to Wufei.
"You look like you were run over by a Taurus, Heero,"Trowa said looking over the edge of his paper at him.
Another "Hn." was issued by Heero.
"You know Heero I had the weirdest dream about you last night,"Duo said as he twirled some of the hair from the bottom of his braid around his finger. Heero's eyes looked they were gonna pop out of their sockets as he looked at Duo. "It was really weird. Do you wanna hear about it?"he asked as he leaned over the table.
"I don't concern myself in such trivial things,"Heero replied. He tried to look calm and unconcerning but he couldn't get his eyes to relax.
"Oh yeah?"Duo cooed. "Then how do you explain Relena?" Heero shivered from the mention of the stalker woman who was constantly trying to get herself in to trouble so he could save her.
"He's got you there Yuy,"Wufei added as he played with his stuffed Shenlong doll on the table. "Booooom! Whoosh!"Wufei shouted happily as he pretended to make his Shenlong doll fly. All the other pilots looked at him in confusion. Quatre came out from the kitchen then, holding a plate stacked high with blueberry pancakes. Duo, quickly snatched two pancakes from the top and slapped them down on his plate. He pushed his long braid off of his shoulder, and began to chow down.
Trowa looked over at Duo, and it was his turn to be surprised. "I suppose you had fun yesterday Duo,"he said.
"What do you mean?"Duo asked through a mouthfull of pancakes. "Well judging by that hickey on your neck I'd say you had a lot of fun yesterday."
"WHAT!"Duo, and Quatre shouted in unison. Wufei stopped feeding his shenlong doll and Heero's face fell down on to his plate of pancakes. Quatre and Duo both looked over at Heero. Duo stood up and ran into the hallway. He looked into the mirror hanging on the wall. Sure enough there was a big red hickey on his neck. "HEERO!"Duo screamed. All heads swiveled around to look at Heero. Heero's head was still buried in pancakes.
