Once again, all six Gundam pilots were sharing a safe house. Why? For the premise of this story, of course!
Duo, Quatre and Nul were gone on a mission, leaving Trowa, Wufei and Heero at the safe house, somewhat bored.
That evening, they went to bed and the three absent Gundam pilots returned around 1 am. Exhausted, they fell into bed.
The next morning when Heero got up, he noticed Duo laying next to him, on top of the blankets, fully dressed. He lay with one hand under his cheek. It was a cute scene, but all that pent up bordom made Heero feel mischevious.
He got up and walked over to the window and pulled up the blinds, revealing a bright sun.
"Rise and shine, sleeping beauty," said Heero.
"Skaaxxjfn," muttered Duo, grabbing a pillow and blocking the sunlight.
"It's time to get up," teased Heero, tugging the pillow away. Duo was not impressed.
"Heero, shut the hell up and go away," he growled, flinging the bed covers over his head.
Stunned, Heero grabbed his clothes and left the room.
Wufei walked into the kitchen to see Nul standing at the kettle, muttering.
"Boil already you stupid goddamn fucking kettle," she snarled at the poor thing.
Wufei, slightly astonished at the language coming from her mouth, paused where he was.
"What no 'Wufei good morning! Isn't it a wonderful day?'" he asked in a teasing tone. Turning around, the pilot glared at him, making him step back. There were dark circles under her eyes and her hair was fussy.
"Wufei, bite my ass," she snarled as she walked out of the kitchen. Just then the kettle whistled. Wufei zombie-walked out of the kitchen into the living room.
Trowa walked into the kitchen to see Quatre nursing a cup of tea. It was milky-beige and couldn't of been very warm.
"Hello Quatre, tea again? No wonder you are so mellow all the-" Trowa stopped as Quatre stood up and dumped his tea on Trowa's head.
"Trowa, leave me alone. Don't talk to me." He walked out of the kitchen, past 'Lost Puppy' Yuy and Chang 'Zombie'. 'Buh-Blink' Barton stood there, blinking as the tea actually seeped through the 'Bang-Shield o' Doom™(1)' into his eye.
"Q-quatre?"
The boys, bearing distinct resemblance to three kicked puppies(2), checked to see if there were any missions lined up in the near future. There weren't. So the boys left a brief note and went to a local bar.
The others merely rolled over and went to sleep for the next six hours.
"I want to get drunk," whined Trowa.
"I'm too depressed to get drunk," said Heero glumly.
Wufei just sat there, stirring at his ice water with lemon, feeling reeeeally bad.
"Woman trouble?" asked the bartender, a tall dark woman with heavy black make-up.
"No."
"No."
"Yes."
"Ah," said the bartender wisely. "Man trouble?"
"Yes."
"Yes."
"No."
"Ah," she said again. "So, what happened?"
"I don't want to talk about it," chorused the three.
"Have some liquid sugar in a can," said one of the waitresses, a redhead in white with a cheerful smile. She reminded them of Nul, only this girl had a white streak of hair that often fell into her face.
"We have Coke, Pepsi-"
"Pepsi is *evil*! Coke forever!" exclaimed the other waitress who had shaggy brown/blond hair and glasses. She walked by the other waitress and tugged on her ponytail and muttered "Orange."
"My hair is not orange, my hair is RED!" she hissed and smiled, knowing that this argument would never end.
"Hmm, maybe *I* can make you feel better," muttered the waiter who had brown hair and a blindfold, for some reason.
"Hey Sooth, no drooling over the customers!" said the bartender. "Aw Ides, you're no fun!" whined the young man. The redhaired waitress smacked him on the head, she had to reach up.
"Hey, what about cake-boy and doll-boy(3)?" "Don't call them that Gwynn!"
"Our significant others came in very late and we kind of teased them and now they are mad at us," said Heero to Ides, ignoring the mock fight between Gwynn and Sooth.
"You teased people with no sleep? You scum!" said the other girl.
"Physh! Don't be so unfair! They had a good reason for it, didn't you?" said Gwynn, emmerging victorious from the minor poke-war with Sooth.
"We were, um, bored?" said Wufei.
"You're right, they are scum!" said Gwynn, glaring. "Sooth, kill them."
Sooth formed an Igor pose and said "Yesss master."
"Stop. Now," said Ides firmly. "Listen, they probably aren't as mad as you think they are. Go back and find out."
"Thank you," said Heero. All three boys paid the bartender and walked out. Ides and Gwynn had slipped Wufei and Trowa their respective phone numbers, in case things didn't work out.
Back at the house, Nul, Duo and Quatre were back to their normal selves and felt very bad about how they'd treated the others. Together, they cooked a fabulous steak dinner with steamed vegetables and rice. Soup and salad courses preceded them and everything was laid out on the table when the others returned home.
"Welcome home," said Nul, greeting the sad boys.
"What's this?" asked Wufei cautiously.
"A 'we're sorry' dinner. Come, sit."
Astonished, the three boys sat down. Nul, Quatre and Duo brought out the first course, soup. After, they sat down together. Heero took several careful spoonfuls and decided it was safe.
"Very good, what is it?"
"A chinese recipe."
"Oh?" asked Wufei with interest.
"Yes. It's Cream of Sum Yung Gais.(4)" This, for some reason caused them to choke and push the bowls away.
"Don't waste it," said Duo. "Quatre and I worked so hard..."
"You-you..."
"We're kidding. It's Cream of Mushroom. I can show you the can..." said Nul, watching them turn interesting shades.
"Yes!" said Quatre brightly. "It's come in a bottle. It comes in a bottle!"(5)
"But you are so pure..." moaned Trowa.
"Pure hentai," proclaimed Quatre.(6)
"Okay, we'll stop now," said Nul, making placating motions. The rest of the meal was uneventful, thankfully.
After dinner, all six pilots cleaned up dinner. It took twice as long because of all the teasing and flirting. Finally they finished and then Trowa, Wufei and Heero were dragged into their respective bedrooms and shown how very, very sorry their lovers were.
The End
1. Y'know, Tro-chan probably *could* use it as a face shield. And that's how I drink *my* tea. I wouldn't want Tro-chan to get burned now would I??
2. You know. There's a great KP look pic of Van in one of our galleries...
3. Gateau from Bakuresu Hunters and Ken from Weiß Kreuss respectively. Gwa, hah hah...
4. Hint: Some young guys... get it all too well?
5. Reference to a bottle of 'Yogotplait' yes, I know...
6. A sentiment expressed by me often.
