Summary:

"Not-So-Missing Socks"

Duo dug through the drawer, searching for the missing sock.

"What are you looking for?" Heero asked.

"My sock."

"And it's not in there, among the many socks you're digging through?"

"No." Duo sighed. "I swear the dryer eats socks, Heero. I always end up missing one."

"And I thought I had taught you how to keep them together?" Heero mumbled, recalling how he'd shown Duo the way that he personally lined two socks together and neatly flipped down one of them so that the two would be held together.

Duo gave Heero a look. "That won't wash or dry very well, will it?" he scoffed. "I'm losing them in the dryer. Not the drawer."

Heero picked up the sock that Duo was holding. "You're looking for his partner?" he asked.

Duo rolled his eyes at his sock drawer. "Yes! For the past five minutes!"

Heero dangled the sock in front of Duo as he slid his arm around his lover's waist. "Would it happen to be the one on your foot?"

"My foot, what-" Duo looked down. "Damn it! How many times is that this week?"

"The third." Heero stifled a chuckle. Duo was so set on accusing the dryer of eating his socks that he often dug one sock out and put it on so he wouldn't lose it as he searched for the other. Then, Duo would forget that he was wearing the sock and would find the other, and spend several long minutes grumbling as he searched through the drawer for the accompanying sock.

"Not a single laugh, Yuy." Duo pulled on his sock and scowled. "If you loved me you'd do that nifty thing with your socks for my socks too."

Heero kissed Duo's ear. "How about I start grovelling with your first coffee?"

"Sounds good." Duo snagged Heero's arm so he couldn't slide away. "But how about I distract you from my third repeated stupid mistake..now?" With that, he kissed Heero, licking at his lover's lips so he could tangle their tongues together.

"Mm," Heero hummed his appreciation before pulling back. "Thanks. Now, put that sock on and I'll get you that coffee. We're going to be late if you don't hurry."

Duo sighed. "Raincheck?"

Heero gave Duo a quick squeeze before he pecked his lips again.

"Definitely."

-end-

(and I swear my dryer eats my socks, seriously!)
