Exercising Spontaneity “What did you think?” Dark eyes flicked up to study the strong fingers clenched around the mug. He had hands like that. Even the office work he had done since coming to Sanc had not softened the calluses on his hands. They were marked physically as well as mentally by their mutual past as Gundam Pilots. “What did I think… about?” “Do I hop a shuttle and run or do I get to kiss the guy again?” Violet eyes, the blue almost completely subjugated by the violet of mischief. Mischief or anger brought out the exotic and rather becoming colour. Duo had large eyes and he had mastered the puppy dog look, but there was nothing of that look now. Duo Maxwell was on a roll and knew it. “One always has the option of seizing the opportunity to bolt and run. It is a fundamental survival instinct.” “I prefer to exploit a situation if I can, without taking to my heels.” Wu Fei sipped his tea. “We all are prone to such instances.” //You could have fooled me.// Duo considered his coffee. //I survived the last sortie and got to kiss the man and escape with my life. I guess the door is close enough for me to make it if he decides to bite this time.// Wu Fei could almost see the cogs turning in the head crowned by glorious chestnut hair. He’d wondered what it would feel like to run his hands through the mass, but friends did not entertain such thoughts… though lovers could. “Sometimes I think we miss too many opportunities because we think too much and act too little.” Duo began. “Indeed.” “Sometimes it is better to stop thinking and imagining the consequences of our actions and simply take the leap. Jump in with both feet and learn to sink or swim.” Dark lashes lowered and he sipped his tea. Maxwell could let his mouth run away with him all too often. Instead of spouting words of wisdom he should take the opportunity and pounce… well, not exactly pounce but certainly move in for a liplock. //I could make the move. I will have to if he does not soon shut up and kiss me.// “You are very quiet. Fei. Cat got your tongue? I’m trying to have a serious conversation here and all you are doing is ignoring me.” //He is pouting. When did Maxwell pouting make me warm? This is ridiculous.// “Quit hiding behind your tea cup and talk to me, Chang. You need to exercise spontaneity. Not everything is cut and dried, or black and white. There are shades of grey, you know and… umph!” Duo’s eyes drifted closed and he decided there were worse ways of being induced to shut his mouth. Indeed, Chang would like him to open his mouth if that was what he thought it was pressing against his lips. Who would have known it? Chang knew how to kiss. End
