Waaah! My friend
just stopped by unannounced today to give me a toy Deathscythe he found at
Meijer's! It's so wicked-cool! (yes, I'm in college and I still like to have
action-figures,) It's so awesome (thank
you Patrick!!). He forgot which gundam
and which gundam boy were my favorite—but I think a little traitor side of me
is saying "Sandrock? Nyah—Deathscythe
is cooler than Sandrock!" Ah, I am
a blasphemous Quatre fan . . . :(
Anyway, now I'm on a happy-high! Deathscythe is standing in front of me,
thermal scythe raised and head cocked to one side. ^_^ Plus I just re-read
an awesome fanfic, and I've been working on Ryoko-oneechan's Tenchi page, and I
got some great feedback—can life get any better?! Well, I could have some cranberry-grape juice . . . how am I
supposed to write without my inspirational juice? *sob* Be prepared for a silly, nonsensical fic!
Warnings: Dunno
yet. Yaoi. Yuri. Het. Language. Perversity. OOC (and lots of
it!!) Um, silliness. And I'm sure a
gazillion other things.
Pairings: Who
knows. Uh—I think I'm gonna make Duo
straight, though. Strangely, the other
day my ex-boyfriend said that he'd always thought Duo was the most straight of
all the pilots. (including Zechs)
Haha!! Not in the fanfic world!! I think this will be mainly 3x4 (because
it's my favorite) and 1x5 (because I love WuFei, and he's always left out!).
C&C welcome. Flames too. (I just like getting
mail!)
Driving Lessons
"I
don't see why we all have to go," WuFei complained as he crawled into the
backseat of the tiny sports car. It
wasn't fair. It wasn't right. It wasn't *just*.
"Maybe
because we're going to the store to buy *you* some more marshmallows!"
Heero told his lover sternly as he patted him on the butt. "Now hurry up and scoot
over."
"The
store's two blocks away. I could
walk," WuFei scowled.
Duo
scrambled in after Heero, pulling the passenger seat backward into the upright
position. Trowa took the passenger
seat, and an intense, concentrating super-deformed Quatre took his place at the
wheel.
His
super-deformed fists were balled against the steering wheel; his eyes were
reduced to slits. A massive sweatdrop
slid down the side of his head, displaying his unease. "Do I have to do this now?" he
asked Trowa, allowing his mouth to quiver and his big turquoise eyes to well up
with big fat tears.
"Yes,"
Trowa answered.
With
a sigh, Quatre put the key in the ignition.
"You
know," Duo said, pushing Heero closer to WuFei so he could have a little
more elbowroom. "I think it's
pretty sad that you can fly planes, pilot mobile suits and spacecrafts, yet you
can't drive a standard."
Quatre
turned and glared at him for an instant.
"Ooh
. . . looks like *somebody* woke up on the wrong side of Trowa this
morning!" Duo taunted, sticking his tongue out at the Arabian.
"All
right, Quatre," Heero began, ignoring Duo and leaning forward,
"remember that you need to let of the clutch at the same time as you press
the gas. The two movements should be
simultaneous."
"Okay,"
Quatre said. He put in the clutch and
started the ignition. Shifting into
first, he tried to gradually put on the gas and release the clutch. He stalled with a lurch.
"Aw,
hell—we'll be stuck here for days!" Duo shouted in Trowa's ear.
Trowa
gently covered Quatre's hand on the gearshift. "You'll be fine. Next time,
if you feel the car begin to stall, just put in the clutch completely. That'll keep it from happening."
"Wait
a sec!" WuFei cried, remembering something. "*You* were the one who ate all the marshmallows,
Heero! Remember, how we were in—"
"Shut
up," Heero growled, cutting off the Chinese pilot's words. He didn't really want the others to hear
about them feeding each other all sorts of interesting foods. Or where they were when they did it. He still hadn't gotten the sticky syrup out
of Wing Zero's cockpit.
"Your
feet should be fairly synchronized," Trowa continued, ignoring the peanut
gallery in the back seat.
"Kinda
like when you're stepping forward in Sandrock, but suddenly have to rock
backwards to dodge." Duo's
analogy, though a little strange, wasn't far from accurate.
Quatre
tried again, and stalled again. Gales
of laughter emitted from Duo and WuFei snickered. Heero glared and Trowa sighed as Quatre began to make a hissing
sound, his teeth clenched tight in order to refrain from swearing.
"Try
again," Heero instructed, his voice devoid of emotion. "If you begin to stall, remember to
press in the clutch and it'll keep the motor running."
With
another snicker, WuFei begin drumming his fingers on the headrest of Quatre's
seat. "You know, Quatre, the store
*does* close. Do you think we'll get
there in time?"
Quatre
gritted his teeth and began again, this time with more success. He pressed a button on the panel, causing
the top of the convertible to fold back. If the others were going to talk, he'd make sure they're voices would be
drowned out by the wind. He made it
halfway down the block before he remembered to shift. Trowa's hand clasped over his as he pulled the gearshift back
into second, and a loud grinding noise made the pilots wince.
"Uh
. . .Quatre? Can you use a little more
clutch next time?" Duo asked tactlessly.
Heero
jabbed him in the side with his elbow. "Shut up, Duo."
"I'm
sorry!" Duo yelped, holding his ribs. "But he sucks!"
"You're
doing fine," Trowa said with a reassuring smile. He pulled his hand away from the Arabian's. "Now shift into third, with a little
more clutch this time."
Quatre
did so, with a lot more success. They
moved through Newport City at a slow but steady pace, remaining in third gear
until they came to a stop light.
"Just
put in the clutch and pop it into neutral," Heero advised.
"Aren't
I supposed to downshift or something?" Quatre asked.
"Don't
worry about it just yet," Trowa said. "I'll teach you later."
Just
then a large yellow car pulled up in the lane to their left—Dorothy Catalonia
and Relena Peacecraft.
"Quatre
Raberba Winner. We meet
again." Dorothy's sharp voice made
Quatre wince. She leaned forward, her
hands gripping the wheel. "Shall
we test your skills again?"
Quatre
grimaced. "You mean, you want to
*race*?"
Dorothy
nodded, flipping her bangs (and one of her maniacal eyebrows). "Do you have the stomach for it?"
Relena,
finally noticing Heero in the back seat, leaned out the window. "Heero! Why haven't you returned any of my calls?"
"Oh
God," Heero muttered, slouching down the seat and hiding behind
WuFei. "Make her stop!"
Duo
leaned across Heero's and WuFei's laps and laughed at Relena. "I think Heero's been pretty busy
lately . . . ah, fencing with WuFei."
Relena
frowned slightly. "I'm having a
party tonight if you'd like to come, Heero."
"I
think he'd rather chew off his own arm," WuFei muttered as the light
changed.
Dorothy
drove off rapidly, and the gundam pilots could hear her laughter. Quatre tried to go. The car lurched and lunged three or four
times, but as a result of his nervousness, it stalled.
"Damn
it," he swore uncharacteristically. He banged one fist against the steering wheel as he turned the key in
the ignition.
"Take
it easy," Trowa sighed, resting his hand on Quatre's thigh. "The more upset you get, the harder
this is gonna be."
Duo
jabbed Heero in the ribs. "Hey,
isn't that what WuFei said the first time you two—" he made an obscene gesture
with his hands.
Heero
growled.
Quatre
tried again. He stalled again. But this time the car behind them was
honking.
"Lord,
you suck, Quatre!" WuFei said, giving up all hopes of ever getting
anywhere. He was exasperated. "It'd be faster if we just
walked!" He moved to climb out of
the tiny convertible, but Heero's arm clamped down on his shoulder.
"Shut
up, WuFei," Trowa growled.
Quatre
managed to synchronize his feet this time, and they took off fairly smoothly.
"That
was better," Heero commented. "We might actually get to the store sometime today."
"Ooh—remind
me to get some whipped cream," Duo told Heero with a grin.
Trowa
turned his head slightly to get a look at Duo. "What? Another date with
Hilde?"
"No—this
one's with your sister," Duo snorted.
Trowa
laughed and turned faced the front again.
"I'm
serious, man," Duo said. "I
really am going out on a date with your sister tomorrow night."
"Yeah. Like she'd date you!" Trowa laughed again.
"You
know," Quatre began, "I don't think girls are that bad, but I can't
imagine ever making out with them or anything."
"I
can't understand how he can even like them," WuFei muttered, nuzzling
closer to Heero.
"Man,
you don't know what you're missing," Duo laughed.
"Neither
do you," Heero said, caressing the inside of Duo's thigh. Duo slapped his hand away, but grinned.
Quatre
roughly parked the car outside of the grocery store and they made their way to
the automatic doors. "So what all
do we need in there?" he asked, whipping out his Winner Bank debit card.
"Marshmallows." WuFei wanted to make S'mores again, if Heero
didn't mind the chocolaty mess.
"Whipped
cream." Duo was drooling just
imagining all the things he'd be able to do with Catherine.
"Lubricant." Heero had always been rather indiscreet.
"Raspberry
syrup." Trowa had a sweet tooth
for raspberries, especially if Quatre was involved in any way.
"And
tampons." The others looked at
Quatre with expressions that were a mixture of shock and confusion. He shrugged. "I told my sisters that I'd pick some up for them."
Twenty
minutes later (and with twenty more items than they had planned) they were at
the checkout.
"Paper
or plastic?" Sally Po asked, beginning to bag their purchases.
"Um,
paper," Trowa decided for them. "What are you doing, working in a place like this?"
Sally
sighed. "Rebel factions don't
really get paid all that well, and most of my savings went to salvaging mobile
suits. So I needed to take a second
job. Credit or debit?"
"Debit,"
Quatre answered, sliding his card through the machine.
"I
could change your financial situation," Heero offered.
"How?" She narrowed her eyes slightly.
"Tonight
I'll hack into the Cinq International Bank and switch your account information
with Relena's."
"Thanks,"
Sally beamed as Duo and WuFei grabbed the bags.
"That
was awfully nice of you," WuFei acknowledged as they made their way to the
car.
Heero
shrugged. "If she can't hire
someone to track me, she won't be able to find me."
They
hopped back into the car and Quatre wiped his sweaty palms on his khakis. "Okay, here we go again."
Trowa
half-smiled. "Backing out is the
hardest. You'll have to relax a
bit."
Quatre
scowled. "Had you told me that
*before* I parked I would've chosen a different spot."
"Yeah
right," Duo laughed, grabbing the back of Trowa's seat. "He probably would've driven around the
parking lot in circles while *we* went into the store."
Quatre
sighed and started the car. "So
it's the same as first, except I shift into reverse?"
Trowa
nodded.
Quatre
managed to back out a little bit—the trouble began when he had to shift back
into first. He moved the gearshift, only
to be greeted with loud grinding noises.
"Clutch,
man! Clutch!" Duo shouted,
covering his ears. "What's wrong
with you?!"
"That's
it!" WuFei cried, standing up. "You don't deserve a great car like this! This magnificent piece of machinery is too good for you!"
Heero
pulled him down again, shutting him up with a long kiss.
Trowa
snickered. "Next thing you know
he'll be worshipping it and calling it 'Nataku.'"
Quatre
drove out of the parking lot wordlessly, but holding on to the steering wheel
with an iron grip. "Where to
now?"
"How
about the arcade?" Heero suggested. Nothing could calm WuFei down like a nice game of Virtual Fighter.
"Yeah,"
Duo chirped. "There's a hot girl
working there—Sylvia Noventa or something like that. She's really cute."
Quatre
shrugged and moved into the right lane. The arcade was only three blocks away, so he'd be fine if he didn't hit
any lights. He watched the speedometer
closely, regulating when to shift.
"Go
into third now, Quatre!" Duo shouted.
"But
I'm only going twenty-two!" he protested.
Trowa
glanced into his side mirror to look at Duo. "You shift too soon, anyway."
Duo
began to protest it, but was stopped by the all-too familiar sound of grinding
gears. He glanced at the road behind
them. "Uh, Q, I think you left
your clutch back there."
"Screw
you!" Quatre hollered, his face
red with rage. He pressed his foot into
the gas pedal, growling slightly.
Trowa
laughed, gently mussing Quatre's hair. "You need to ignore him," he said softly. "And pretty soon you're going to need
to shift into fourth. Listen to the
engine."
Quatre
pressed the clutch in, but accidentally moved the gearshift toward the
"reverse" position. The
grinding noise was louder than ever, and Quatre didn't understand why he
couldn't move the gearshift any further.
"What
the fuck?!" Heero yelled. "You're putting it into reverse, you ass!"
Quatre
quickly corrected his mistake, flushing a deep shade of pink.
"There's
no way you're ever going to learn," WuFei stated with a scowl. "Just give it up now."
"Really,"
Duo chimed in. "You should just
stick to automatics."
Trowa
turned angrily in his seat, surprising the other pilots with a fierce
expression. "Maybe he'd be fine if
you guys would shut the hell up!"
Five
minutes later they found themselves at the arcade, and Quatre parked the car
with a lurch. Dorothy and Relena were
leaning against the side of the building, smirking. Dorothy made her way over to Quatre's side and leaned against his
door.
"Well,
Quatre Raberba Winner—after witnessing your driving ability, I must say that
it's a lot better than your fencing."
Quatre
scowled and tried to come up with some nasty retort, but his mind was
blank. Then Duo pulled a can out of one
of the shopping bags and passed it to the angry Arabian. He understood immediately "You're right, Dorothy," Quatre
said with a small smile. He gazed at
her with the best set of "bedroom eyes" he could muster. "Maybe you can come over to my place
tonight and give me some . . . lessons."
Her
face lit up with a slightly-evil grin. "I could like that."
"Me,
too," Quatre said with a grin. He brought the can up to her face, spraying
her with cheddar cheese. "If hell
froze over!"
Dorothy
shrieked and ran inside the building, leaving the gundam pilots with Relena.
"That
was mean," Trowa sighed, casting his lover an admiring smile.
Quatre
shrugged. "I'm really sick of that
bitch."
Relena
sauntered over toward the car as they were climbing out. "How about that party,
Heero?"
He
grinned maniacally. It was time to give
her a dose of reality. "I'm going
to be busy screwing my boyfriend." With that said, he grabbed WuFei and gave him a searing hot kiss.
Relena
watched with horror at first, but then her face broke out into a smile. She laughed. "Oh, stop playing hard-to-get!"
As
the pilots face-faulted, she ran into the arcade to find Dorothy.
"Come
on," Trowa said, pulling the other guys into the building. It was crowded—lots of Oz soldiers were
roaming about, playing video games. A
huge group surrounded the air hockey table, where Treize Kushrenada and Zechs
Merquise were playing.
"Ooh
. . . Tetris . . ." Quatre
wandered away, pulling Trowa along with him.
Duo
immediately made his way to the prize counter, where Sylvia Noventa was
working. Man, she was cute!
Heero
and WuFei tried to slip past the air hockey crowd in order to reach the Virtual
Fighter game, but Treize stopped them.
"Ahh,
Little Dragon . . . do you want to play a game?"
WuFei
shook his head. "No thanks. I don't like air hockey."
"That's
not what he was talking about," Zechs smirked, putting a hand on Heero's
shoulder. "Wanna go out for a
drink?"
Heero
grimaced. Was Zechs *hitting* on
him? He'd always assumed that Zechs was
dating Noin, and Treize was with Une. At least, that's what it had always looked life before.
Treize
wrapped one arm around WuFei and the other around Zechs. "Certainly we can come up with some
kind of suitable arrangement. This is
just too tempting for us to resist."
"Aren't
you guys already . . . involved?" WuFei asked, trying to end the
discussion diplomatically. "I
don't think your women would take kindly to this sort of situation."
"Well,
what they don't know can't hurt them," Zechs purred. "We've been carrying on for—how long
now?"
"About
two years, I guess," Treize answered.
"That's
disgusting," WuFei snapped, grabbing Heero's arm. Let's get out of here."
Heero
didn't protest. He wanted to get as far
away from Zechs as possible.
They
found Duo at the prize counter, still hitting on the pretty blonde. They yanked him away from her without a
second thought.
"What
the hell was that for?" Duo yelled. "I almost had a date!"
"Yeah,
well so did we," WuFei scowled. "Where are Trowa and Quatre?"
"We
need to get out of here now," Heero added, by way of an explanation.
They
looked all over the arcade, but there was no sign of them anywhere. Finally Duo stopped, refusing to look any
further. "Why did you have to get
me first?" he whined. "I
could've secured a date with that babe by now, you jerks." He leaned up against the 5-Minute Photo
Booth, crossing his arms and pouting.
"They're
around here somewhere," Heero said. "We would've heard the grinding gears if they'd left."
WuFei
snickered and Duo smiled. They were
about to go off on another search when a strip of revealing photographs came
out of the machine behind Duo. He
grabbed the pictures and hooted.
"Well,
now we know where they are!" he cried with a laugh, handing the
photographs to WuFei. He pulled back
the curtain to expose Trowa and Quatre, who were making out, oblivious to their
surroundings.
Heero
yanked Quatre off of Trowa's lap. "We need to go. Now."
"Damn
it," Trowa swore. glaring at the other three boys.
"Do
you want these?" WuFei asked, dangling the photos in front of Trowa. Trowa made a grab, but WuFei pulled his hand back playfully. "Oh, I don't think so, Barton. I'm sending these back to a certain Maganac
leader who's gonna be a little pissed."
Quatre
stopped in his tracks upon hearing WuFei's words. "You can't! Rashid
will kill him!!"
WuFei
smirked and handed the photos to Duo.
"Man,
Trowa!" Duo exclaimed. "I
didn't know you were *that* flexible!"
"Just
come on," Heero insisted. He
dragged the other pilots out of the arcade, carefully looking out for either
Relena or Zechs.
"Does
Quatre *have* to drive?" Duo whined.
"Yes,"
Trowa answered. "Unless you give
me those pictures."
"Shit,
you know I can't do that!"
"Then
Quatre's driving."
The
Arabian scowled at his lover. "Thanks for using me as collateral." He started the engine and took off with his usual finesse. [smirk]
"Is
anyone else getting hungry?" Heero asked, glancing at his watch. It was already seven-thirty.
"Yes,"
Duo answered immediately.
"Sort
of," Quatre admitted, grinding the gears pathetically as he shifted into
second.
"What
are you in the mood for?" WuFei asked, grabbing Heero's hand.
Heero
smiled sexily. "What am I *always*
in the mood for?"
"Chinese?"
Duo asked with a smirk.
"Ooh—I
want something that's hot and spicy!" Quatre exclaimed.
"Don't
we all?" Duo murmured.
"Nyah—we
went to that weird Mexican place yesterday. Let's just go to McDonald's or something," Trowa suggested.
Heero
sighed. "I guess McDonald's will
do."
"How
long have they been around, anyway?" Duo asked, wincing as Quatre shifted
poorly again. "I think McDonald's
was here before the Cinq Kingdom!"
Somehow
they made it to the fast-food restaurant without any major problems (other than
the constant lurching whenever Quatre shifted, and stalling out at every major
intersection). They went to place their
orders, surprised to see some old Oz faces behind the counter.
"Welcome
to McDonald's; may I take your order?" Lt. Walker asked as they approached
the counter.
"Yeah—what's
the special this month?" Duo asked. "Is it time for the McRib sandwich yet?"
"No. We don't have anything, except for the Cinq
Kingdom exclusive Happy Meal toy series."
"And
what's that?" Trowa asked.
Lt.
Alex and Lt. Mueller came up to the
counter, holding up tiny action figures. "Pacifists of the century," Alex explained. "Several of the Peacecrafts,
Vice-Foreign Minister Darlian, Quatre Winner, and Field Marshall Noventa,
even."
"They
have me?" Quatre asked, his eyes big. "Wow!"
Mueller
smirked. "You're not the toy for
this week. Sorry."
Heero
glared. "Weren't you guys killed
already?"
Walker
sighed. "Yes, but the crazy thing
about fanfics—they let you come back for a bit. Look at Treize."
WuFei
shrugged. There was some truth in that—he
remembered killing Treize.
"What
do you want to eat?" Alex asked.
Trowa
sighed. "I want a Happy Meal, but
I want the Quatre toy in it."
"I
can't do that," Walker explained. "It's against the franchise policy."
"Please?"
Quatre begged, his eyes beginning to tear up.
Walker
shook his head and Quatre growled with anger. "You know—I can always get in Sandrock and destroy you
*again*!"
"Yeah,
if you can drive back to the hangar!" WuFei snickered.
Quatre
elbowed the offending pilot, standing his ground and snarling at the ex-dead-Oz
soldier. "Trowa wants his
toy!"
"Fine!"
Walker shouted. "You'll get your
toy. What else?"
"How
about three Big Macs, a nine-piece Chicken McNugget, a number 3 combo--Super
sized with a Coke, and two apple pies?" Duo licked his lips in anticipation.
"Is
that all?" Walker asked.
Duo
shook his head. "No—you have to
get the other guys' orders, too!"
Heero
and WuFei and Quatre placed their orders and they were seated and eating within
five minutes. Duo, on the other hand,
had to wait an excruciatingly long time for his fries. Some things, like McDonald's, never changed
despite the several hundred years of service.
As
they were finishing up their meal, they heard a commotion at the counter.
"Colonel
Zechs!" They saw Otto jumping over the counter, ready to assist Zechs in
any way possible. "What would you
like to try today? The Happy Meals now
come with a Milliardo Peacecraft toy, you know!"
Zechs
snickered and brushed the man aside.
"I
wouldn't mind having one," Noin said, cooing over her boyfriend. She nuzzled against him.
Heero
was shocked and angered when Zechs winked at him over the top of Noin's head.
"Master
Treize, is there anything you'd like?" Lady Une asked, putting on her
glasses to read the menu overhead.
"Yes,
Lady—but not food," Treize answered, leering at WuFei from across the
room.
"I
want a Super-sized Quarter-Pounder Combo Meal—pronto!" Une barked out at
the flustered workers.
Duo
shoved the last chicken McNugget in his mouth. "I think it's time to go," he said, despite his full mouth.
Quatre
sweatdropped. "Yeah—if these guys
are here, I have a feeling Dorothy will show up any minute."
They
crept out the side door and made their way to the convertible.
"Where
to now?" Trowa asked.
"How
about going home?" Heero suggested.
"Or
to a movie?" Duo asked.
Quatre
turned the key in the ignition and almost backed out successfully. Well, he would have, if he hadn't tried to
put the car in first, *then* reverse. Instead they were greeted with lurches and grinding noises, as they had
expected. But Quatre corrected his
mistake fairly easily, and managed to get down the street without stalling.
They
were traveling down a quiet road, Quatre concentrating on the clutch, Trowa
tapping lightly on the side of the car. Duo was singing softly and Heero and WuFei were curled up together in
the back seat. It was peaceful. They'd had a long day—some of which they
wanted to forget. Now that they were on
a fairly deserted road with few lights or stop signs, they weren't too
disturbed by the occasional grinding of gears.
"Shift
into fourth now," Trowa instructed.
Quatre
tried to do so, but stalled. They were
lucky no one was behind them.
"How
the fuck do you stall going into fourth?!" Heero shouted, getting ready to
attack Quatre. "Just give it up—you'll
never be able to drive this car!"
"I
agree!" WuFei hollered. "You're ruining this beautiful car! Nataku doesn't deserve your injustice!"
Duo
fished the strip of photographs out of his pocket. "Trowa, just take them, and get him the hell out of that seat!"
Trowa
complied, quickly switching seats with Quatre.
"This
is *so* much better," The Arabian sighed, placing his hand on Trowa's
knee. "Don't you think?"
Trowa
nodded and started the car again. The
other three pilots smiled as Trowa easily drove off, turning into a drive-in
movie theater.
"What
are they showing?" Heero asked.
"Doesn't
matter," Duo pointed out. "You're just gonna make out with Wuffie."
Heero
shrugged. He was probably right.
After
paying the attendant, Trowa drove around looking for the perfect spot. He pulled up next to a somewhat
familiar-looking car.
"Hey! That's Hilde's car!" Duo shouted. He noticed the feet hanging out of the
window. "Hey, who the hell is she
with?" He leaned out of the
convertible, straining for a better look. "I swear I'm gonna kill whatever son of a bitch thinks he can put
his hands on *my* Hilde!"
Quatre
shifted in his seat, peering into the other car as it rocked wildly. "It kind of looks like . . .
Catherine!"
"What?!" Duo jumped out, astonished. He looked into the window, then smirked at
the other guys. "Back me up, men,
'cause I'm goin' in!" With a laugh
he entered the other car, greeted by the squeals of lustful girls.
Trowa
growled. "That is *not* my
sister," he repeated over and over, like a mantra. Quatre scooted closer, intending to make
Trowa forget *all* about Duo and Catherine.
"Heero!"
Relena's cry interrupted the other four boys. Heero pulled away from WuFei, cursing. "Aren't you supposed to be on your way to my house?" she
asked, oblivious to the fact that he had been all over the Chinese boy.
Just
then Duo popped out of the other car. His hair was coming out of its braid and his shirt was unbuttoned. "Can you hand me the whipped
cream?" he asked Quatre. "And
whatever's left of the Cheez Whiz?"
WuFei
looked at Heero seriously for a moment. "You know, there is one place we can go where she'll never find
us."
Heero
sighed. "Zechs and Treize?"
WuFei
nodded.
"Let's
go."
Hopping
out of the car, WuFei and Heero took off, with Relena in hot pursuit.
Duo
jumped back into the other car with a feral grin.
Trowa
glanced over at Quatre with a small smile. "The backseat's free," he said softly.
Quatre
nodded, using the dim light to examine the strip of pictures closely. "Trowa, how *did* you get into that
position?"
"Here,
let me show you . . . "
