"Baby Series 2"

Civilizing Heero

“So, did you get to first base?”

Heero almost groaned. He was incorrigible! Just when he thought Duo was serious he came out with something outrageous. He had had enough of bases and baseball to last him a lifetime. He had more important things to think about.

Duo turned from the keyboard, letting his hands fall limp into his lap. “I have to wait to see what selections Chang comes up with before I get creative. The music has to match the action.”

“What has music and laser light shows to do with mythological first bases?”

“I’m serious. You and I are in the same boat here, you know? You are courting the Princess and I’m trying to get to first base with her brother and I have, at long last, got my toe on first base with Chang. I thought it was something common we could discuss.”

Heero considered Duo before returning his attention to his keyboard. “Yes.”

Duo blinked. “Yes?”

“Yes, I have reached first base.”

Heero was blushing, Duo noted and refrained from commenting in the interests of self-preservation. There were some things one did not make light of in the presence of the Perfect Soldier. Heero had instances of relapse if he felt threatened in any way. To know Heero, under his own initiative, had progressed to the stage he had kissed the Princess was a landmark event, but Heero would frown on comments.

“Well, good for you. I’ve got Chang to see the light. I don’t believe he will backslide, but he can be a touchy bastard. Once this Chang of Chang bit is set in motion touchy feely moments will have to be reserved for private. I was hoping to get us together with Zechs after the New Year. Maybe sneak up on the big guy over the Christmas season. I even have a handy dandy sprig of mistletoe on call at all times.”

“Mistletoe?” Heero turned from the computer.

“Yeah. You know about mistletoe, right?”

“Of course I know about mistletoe. Did you swipe it from the decorations somewhere? I want a piece but it seems to be hanging in obvious places and I don’t want anyone to see me take some.”

Blue-violet eyes widened, lips pursed and Duo held in the mile wide grin threatening to break free. Heero Yuy, the former Perfect Soldier and human automaton was hunting mistletoe? And did not want anyone to see him acquire some?

“If you like I can get you some? I’ll just head off and get it while I wait for Chang to show up.”

Heero turned back to his computer. “I would appreciate that, Duo.”

“Not a problem. Be back in five.”

Duo snickered quietly to himself once safely out of the office. He would not dare have so much as smirked in Heero’s presence, but he was delighted. This romantic side to Heero was a pleasant surprise.

“Pretty Princess is civilizing Heero. Who’d have thought it?”
