Conversations with Trowa Duo knocked softly on Trowa’s door. “. . .” “Thanks, Trowa. I know you’re busy, but I didn’t know who else to talk to. I mean, I just don’t feel comfortable talking to Quatre, really. And well, I don’t even *want* to know how Wu-man would react. And, well, of course you know it’s about Heero….” Duo trailed off. “. . .” “Right. So… Well, I’m gonna be blunt here, ‘cause I don’t think I can avoid it, kay?” “. . .” “Well… I’ve been trying to take my… um… persuit, I guess you could say, of Heero slowly. Give him a chance to adjust maybe or… something. And… while he’s gotten a little more receptive… kinda…. At least he doesn’t only have like 5 words in his vocabulary anymore, and he’s really taken to the picking on Wufei thing like I hoped,” Duo said with a smile. “. . .” “Right, back to what I was saying… Well, I’m getting a bit frustrated. No. Okay. Scratch that. I got a bit frustrated a month ago. Now I’m *extremely* frustrated, I have a raging fucking hard-on every night and Heero “I-Can-Ignore-Anything-If-It-Doesn’t-Get-In-My-Way” Yuy is *ignoring* me! ME! His best buddy, his pal, the rock he leans on… I’ll give him a freakin’ rock… right up the fuckin’ ass…” Duo’s outburst trailed off into a mumble. “. . .” “Right, Tro. So what do you think I should do?” “. . .” Duo snickered. “Yeah, well I been doin’ that and it ain’t helpin’ much. Dammit! I even timed it so Heero’d walk *in* on me jerkin’ off. But does he react? Nooooo. He just says, ‘Let me know when you’re done, Duo, I need to use the bathroom.’ ‘Need to use the fuckin’ bathroom,’ he says.” Trowa was unable to hide a little smirk at Duo’s last comment, made in a whiny, very un-Heero-like tone. Luckily, though, Duo was distracted enough not to notice. “So, do you think I should hold out longer and see if he comes around? Should I forget the whole thing? Or should I…. Or should I jump him.” The last question came out like a statement. “. . .” “Don’t talk like a fuckin’ psychiatrist. I’ve already asked myself what I should do. If I knew I wouldn’t have come askin’ YOU would I’ve?” Duo paused to take a deep breath. “Eh… hehehe… gomen, Tro. Didn’t mean to snap at ya like that. But I really *have* thought about it and I can’t decide. I know what *I* wanna do. Jump him, of course. But how do you think he’ll take it?” “. . .” “Really?! Uso! There’s no way that Quatre could do that. Nah! I don’t believe it!” “. . .” “Well, damn! Go Quatre! Um, I mean…” “. . .” “Oh, good. Glad you don’t mind. So, Quatre really jumped you like that, huh? And that’s why you guys are together now? I know you and Heero are similar, but you aren’t the same….” Duo sighed. “I just hope it works out ‘cause I guess I’m gonna hafta jump him. I guess there wasn’t really another choice anyway.” “. . .” “Right. Thanks for the luck, Tro, but I think I’ll save it for another time – Shinigami’s goin’ SHOPPING! Heero’ll never be able to resist me NOW!” Trowa sighed. With Duo’s good humor restored, and with a battle plan in mind, Trowa felt he’d better go inform Quatre of the upcoming battle.
