"Baby Series 2"

Filling The Silence

“Wow.”

Blue eyes turned that particular shade somewhere between violet and amethyst not only with anger, but with passion as well. Wu Fei felt particularly smug as he pulled back and Duo blinked and grinned, his skin flushed with a becoming blush. His skin glowed pink with the flush of blood through his system and he seemed incapable of saying more than that word which was more breathed than spoken.

“I guess there is no need to run any more.”

“We no longer need to run from each other… or anyone else.” Wu Fei smirked. “I have had occasion to think and discovered I have been running from myself.”

Duo sighed and settled back, wrapping his fingers around the black mug. “We are all guilty of that. I made it something of a motto: running and hiding. Like I said, I’m done with it.”

He was uncertain what to say, unwilling to push the conversation and possibly ruin the moment, but silence was not what he wanted. Wu Fei set his mug on the table and ran a finger around the rim.

“Have you wondered why you chose the mug you use?”

“Huh?”

It was trivial and it was no doubt drivel, but it was filling the silence and he wanted that silence filled. It was harmless enough, though it made no sense even to him.

“You choose the black mug every time, I choose the white. The chef even stacks them in that little cupboard every night, black for you, white for me. Red for Milliardo.”

“Yuy’s blue mug is in there too.” Duo murmured, resisting the urge to look at the cupboard. “I don’t know why I picked black. I guess somehow, deep down, it brings to mind Deathscythe.”

“I no longer wear white. Have I substituted the mug for my wardrobe? Does Heero think of Wing? Milliardo… Do you think it is Epyon he remembers when he sees the cup?”

“I think he thought better of Tallgeese and that was white. Maybe red means something else to him… that jacket he always wore when he was a part of Oz?” Duo frowned. “Why are we talking about the colours of cups, anyway?”

“Perhaps to fill the silence?”

“Nothing wrong with silence. Lots of good things happen in a silence that can’t happen when you are talking. Silence is an opportunity.”

Chang smirked. “Indeed?”

It was a challenge and Duo knew it and grinned. Leaning forward he noted Wu Fei would met him halfway. Lips played gently over lips, testing, not deepening yet, but tasting. They drew back from each other and both were blushing.

“I apologize. I have been filled with my discontent with how matters stand. I have been less than sociable.”

“We all have our moments.”

“I must come to terms with my desires at a time I stare my heritage in the face. I have neglected my responsibilities too long.”

“We, not you alone. We, Fei.”
