Halfway through the last workday before Christmas. My sister M’s birthday is soon after, and I always forget this whilst I am doing my shopping and only get one item for her and end up scrambling around after. Ah, how I want to go home right now… only four more hours…

Wow, things seem tense arround here. And I have a feeeling Dorothy knows more than they suspect she does ;) Daamn two more days for the next part… TWO WHOLE DAYS?! XD
Yes, tension is par for the course for the rest of Monday :D And, again yes, I think Dorothy may indeed know something. TWO WHOLE DAYS! Sorry, heh. Thanks for your comments!!
I don’t know how Heero made it through the day. I never would have been able to stand it, especially with Duo on the desk. I’m picturing him waving his arms and legs around. That would be as cute as it would be distracting.
I’m on pins and needles now. It’s almost time. I’m so excited!!!
I know! As he said, they should have gotten that day off too. Of course, then they’d just have been sitting around at home all day in the same agitation, but at least they wouldn’t have had to deal with work stuff XD
Yes, it is almost time! I’m excited too! I hope everyone likes the way things turn out!
*is dead*
You ended it THERE?
First: another fantasy breaking-of-the-curse.
They had been in bed not yet a full hour, but the tension running as high as it was, Heero and Duo were exhausted. They hadn’t lasted past midnight, which is why the initial noises had gone unnoticed. In fact, the whole ordeal was rather anticlimactic: one minute, Duo was a plastic doll lying in a plastic bed; the next, he was flailing to gain purchase, positioned precariously as he was on the extreme edge of Heero’s bed.
“What the?!” Heero spoke groggily, disturbed by the undulating bed and then, the breathy sound of an epic struggle followed quickly by a dull thud.
“I FELT THAT!” Duo whopped. Through the incomplete darkness of his bedroom, Heero was able to make out the dim shape of Duo’s fist pumping the air, and a scrap of the arm to which it was attached. “I FELT IT! Sonuvabitch!”
“D- Duo?” The bedside lamps flashed on and the light was glaring despite the being set to the lowest wattage. A large, masculine hand came up to grip the edge of the mattress, the strength of that grip made the veins pop against the smooth skin. Heero’s heart skipped wildly behind his ribs. The moment they had waited for, the moment he had angsted for, was come.
“Yeah, it’s me. I’m… me.” The hand on the mattress clutched the covers tightly and without any further ado, Duo’s smiling face popped into view. Heero had only two thoughts: He’s human… and he’s beautiful.
***
haha! well, at least he won’t pop’n’bang in the office. That would surely be awkward. Now, I have to go back and reread what Dorothy’s reaction was to Duo way back in the day…
You didn’t expect me to just hand over the Big Scene first thing on Monday, did you? It needs to be worked up to properly :D
Da ha, your idea is awesome. Without getting into specifics, it looks like you’re following my train of thought on certain matters pretty closely, too :D Nicely done!
The Dorothy scene you want is, I believe, in part 49, incidentally. If you haven’t already found it on your own.
Thanks for your comments, and that lovely little speculative snippet!!
Ok! Now with Dorothy’s cryptic remark, I want to read more… I am nearly biting my nails here.
Arg… the tension is too much. Thanks again for the update. *^_^*
I hope the tension isn’t really too much, because if you were to stop reading it would never be resolved, heh. Dorothy’s cryptic remark will be explained in time, but first we need to have some more Monday :D
Run Heero run! /
Onward to the next part!
He will certainly not dawdle on the way home, as we shall see :D Next part on Sunday! Thanks for your comments!
“He was going to miss him more than he could say.” :( Oh man, that was a heavy line. Boy oh boy, am I excited about the BIG Reveal or what! Is it Sunday yet?!!! I’m also curious to find out more about Dorothy!
Isn’t that line kindof awful?? XD Because Heero thinks he won’t have Duo around on a regular basis after this evening. Poor guy.
No, not quite Sunday yet, heh. I’m excited too, though! And finding out more about Dorothy will take a bit longer.
Thanks for your comments, as always!!
I’m only reading it, and *I* barely made it through that day!!! The TENSION!!! And I adored Dorothy in this! Me thinks she’s more observant and open than she appears!
Heh heh… I’m very glad if I managed to convey the tension so well ^___^ And, yes, Dorothy knows more than she’s saying!
69 minutes until I post the next part… and then I can go to bed…
*mwahahahaha* It’s horrible, but I’m so amused that my prediction was right: Monday was torturous for them. Poor Quatre, robbed of his day off with uncursed Trowa. Poor Heero, made to stay over way past 5:00.
You know, I’m now quite curious about Dorothy – I swear she knows something! *ponders* I wonder if she has any history with magic? Or maybe she saw Duo moving one time? It could be any number of things. It could just be Dorothy being all sly and mysterious, like she usually does. XD
Now we get to see what Monday evening is like! Oh, I hope Cairo didn’t mess them up, I want the curse to break! *rushes on to the next chapter*
Quatre is going to be even less happy about losing his day off once today is over, too XD But, as Heero mentioned, this is uphold-the-business-honor-of-the-Winner-family Quatre, and there’s no way he would shirk his duty.
Good questions about Dorothy, and they will be answered in time :D
Taken me a bit to read this…next ones will be a coming lol
This was pretty suspenseful. Poor Heero and Duo…not able to go home until after Quatre…
An unprecedented difficulty! But I just had to torture them some more XD
