"Baby Series 2"

Socially Acceptable

“It’s a bitch, you know?”

“Excuse me?” Heero looked up, eyebrow raised as he turned his head to Duo seated at a second terminal.

“Having to sublimate for the sake of propriety.”

Heero blinked. “What are you talking about?”

“Sublimation. Noun. When related to psychology it means modifying the natural expression of an impulse or instinct… especially a sexual one… to one that is socially acceptable. It’s a bitch because all I really want to do is throw Chang on his back and have my wicked way with him.”

Heero knew he was blushing. Arched eyebrows slowly drew down into a frown and his eyes narrowed. He was tired of Duo confusing him and he had no doubt it was deliberate. For the last thirty minutes they had worked in near silence as they prepared the programs to allow for their modifications. Sanc would have a light show but there would be no explosions of fireworks to stir up nightmares of the past.

“Of course I would prefer to toss sexy onto the biggest bed I can find, add that tasty titbit Chang and lock the door for a month. By then I should have them delicious puddles of obedient sexy goo. Propriety sucks. I’m sure you must feel the same, given you are courting a royal.”

Was Duo serious? Some days it was hard to tell, but he had not once lifted his attention from the keyboard and monitor and his fingers were positively flying over the keys. It seemed while his attention was riveted on what he was doing his mouth was quite capable of running on automatic.

“Chang being the Chang of Chang is enough of a pain to make me want to pull my hair out by the roots. He’s going about that all wrong, but if I approach Zechs before he makes any more mistakes I’m sure we can set his feet on the right path. He needs a position of strength, not to go as a supplicant, regardless of whether he actually wants to be The Chang or not. Hey Heero, why did I have to have the hots for two guys who have hereditary position? All the formality sucks big time. It’s just not made for quiet little interludes in dark corners or romantic candlelit dinners for two. Three in my case.”

Had he not had Relena’s complete cooperation he would not have enjoyed a number of encounters in circumstances free of chaperone and witnesses. Courting members of old aristocracy, specifically members of a Royal House, demanded a certain measure of control. He had been tempted, as had Relena, to step over that very well defined line and so he kept rigid control of himself when he was alone with her.

Duo was not only pursuing Wu Fei but was interested in the King. He suspected Duo had bitten off a good deal more than he could chew.

“Sublimation.” Heero murmured.

“Yeah. Sucks.”
