Eminently Sensible “I would prefer mulled wine to hot chocolate.” The husky rumble sent shivers up Duo’s spine. Shivers of what might have been fear in the days of the war had he ever come face to face with the best that Oz could claim and now suggested something that almost frightened him. Not fear but shivers heralding something very different to enemy turned friend turned … what? Chang had designs on the King and he knew it but he had to wonder if Milliardo himself understood Chang’s intent and was the attraction mutual or was he politely ignoring the subtle hints and suggestions that had been forthcoming. Hints so subtle in fact that perchance the King had missed them? //Wuffers has not actually thrown much in the way of hints when Zechsy has actually been around. Why? Is he afraid of rejection? Afraid Zechs likes the ladies … that he wants more kids?// He rested his head on his knees and sighed. //What’s wrong with me? First I like Chang … heck I more than like him but I started feeling up Zechsy first chance I got and just the sound of his voice gives me shudders. Sexy as hell husky rumble he’s got gives me ideas.// “Sake.” Heero sighed. “Sake and lots of it. Very warming.” “I did not know you drank.” Chang wrapped the edge of the blanket about his toes and tucked it in. “When the occasion permits I indulge. I wonder if Relena is awake? If anyone searching has been sensible enough to get themselves back home. What would your drink of choice be?” They would be searching but Duo found himself hoping the would be rescuers had given up for the night and were not caught in the howling wind and freezing chill. “Herbal tea. Hot and sweet to ward the chill and fortify against illness brought about by the cold.” //Eminently sensible. That’s Fei alright.// Duo mused. //Everything sensible and thought out.// “Best hope they have not given us up for the night.” Zechs stirred shifting under the blanket. “Why?” Heero queried. “Have you not noticed? The wind is dropping. If it continues to ease we may have the chance to escape. Some of these storms have periods of quiet anything from a few minutes long to an hour or more. This may be one and if so we must be quick to take advantage of the lull.” “It was snowing before the wind came up then you said that it would be a blizzard before morning. Well you were right. How sure are you conditions will change from blizzard to calm and then back to blizzard?” “Worse that it has been.” The voice was quiet and the warning it carried clear. “If we are fortunate we might have an hour though not much more in which to make the palace.” Chang stared at the bundle of wet clothing. “We’ll have to do it in soaking wet clothes. They’ll freeze within minutes of going outside.” End |
