Two Christmas Ficlets
Merry Christmas:
I wrote two very short little Gundam Wing 1X2 Christmas Ficlets. If you wish to read them you can go to the cut below, but keep in mind that I usually follow an art muse, not a writing one... you have been warned!
Mistletoe
3 days until Christmas... first event.
Day started out normal. Duo and I arrived at Preventers HQ at 0745 hours. We check in and proceed to our office and conduct our normal morning routine: i.e. Duo check/return his e-mails while chatting at me non stop about weather or other mundane topics, (sometimes he even sings to me without realizing it). I proceed to check/return e-mails, and check updates on assignments and other news items that may pertain to current missions.
Approximately 0815, I receive request from Wufei, to attend an interrogation of a suspect. I left office to assist with said interrogation. Suspect responded well and provided relevant information necessary for further arrests.
Returned to office 0945. Duo is now gone and a new phenomenon occurs. I wish Duo were here to explain... there are so many customs I do not know and I am uncomfortable with. The current one: agents are stopping by Duo and my office to leave "Christmas Goodies" and each person so far has delivered said gift with some form of kiss.
Dr Po was the first to make entrance. She brought in a wrapped plate of home made cookies. This she has done in years past, but what she has not done was peek me on the cheek with a kiss as she delivered them! She then swiftly left. All I could do was sit at my computer and blink. And then I wished Duo was around to tell me what had just happened.
Next Noin appeared. She delivered her usual holiday package of sweet breads. She also managed to kiss my cheek and quickly depart. My confusion grew.
Quatre came by next, he delivered a package for both Duo and me, but told me not let Duo open until Christmas morning! Then he giggled and shocked me by kissing me on the mouth. Now we pilots are not prudes, and have held and comforted each other as needed, and have at times given comfort in other ways, but a kiss just this morning was disconcerting! A very sweet kiss it was, but quite unsettling! (Quatre's kisses are always sweet!)
Wufei proceeded to walk slowly by my open office door, and he did not enter, but I distinctly heard him snort as he proceeded down the hallway. Now what was that about. I shook my head and tried to get back to work and concentrate. I was almost glad he had not come in and maybe kissed me too, though I have kissed him before, (I mean he's one of the pilots too).
Lady Une came by in a very short period of time. She surprised me, and I was startled to say even nervous to see the head of Preventer approach my office door. She came in and handed me our Christmas card (BONUS) and then kissed me lightly on the lips! Knock me over with a feather from Wing! I blinked and she was already out my door and down the hall. Whew, can things get any stranger? I think Duo would say I just challenged some kind of power, but without him here to help me remember... oh well.
I heard more footsteps approaching the blasted doorway. Maybe I should just get up and lock the damned thing. Nope, not until Duo gets back, then maybe. I look up to see Trowa in the door frame grinning at me, envelope in hand. "Quatre forgot to give you this!" He strides across the room and before I know what his intent, he's got me by the back of my head and his mouth plastered to mine... He's a great kisser, almost as good as my Duo! He disappears out the door almost as quickly as he came, and just as quietly too.
The parade of friends slows after that, and by 1200 no one has come by for awhile. I have finally settled down and gotten some work done. I plane to work through lunch because without the braided one around to sidetrack me, I can get more completed in anticipation of the Christmas Holiday. But no, I hear noises from the elevator and recognize a familiar noise level approaching. Duo has returned.
He pocks his head around the door and peeks at me. "Hi there buddy, I hear your morning's been kinda busy... " The way he hasn't yet entered the office has me on alert. "Duo, that wouldn't happen to have been any of your doing now would it?"
He steps further into the room, bringing the door closed after him. "Um... if I say yes, will you get angry at me?" I look him over, and calculate several things, clothing removal, prep time, pleasure time, enjoyment of seeing him squirm, change of clothes available, clean-up... those sorts of things.
"It depends. How long will you bottom?" Duo visibly gulps, around the holidays he loves to exploit the use of holiday related toys... it would mean giving up some of his holiday play with me. "Heero, I did it, and then got called on a bust, I had no way of knowing Wufei would spread the word like wildfire of what I planned to be a private surprise for just between the two of us... And then I get back, and hear of who all had been in to take advantage, and Heero I could just about die! I can't believe, I mean. Did Lady Une really come down here and deliver our bonus to you?"
I pick up said bonus and wave it slowly under Duo's nose. He groaned. "Oh man! Please say it isn't so." He glances around more closely at the other wrapped parcels and I can see clearly he gets the picture. "I put up one tiny piece of mistletoe and the whole of Preventer's think they can come in here and kiss all over MY Hubby!"
"Ok, so now I get it. Mistletoe!" I almost grin with relief. "Where did you put it? I don't see it anywhere."
He points to just slightly above my computer chair. There on a piece of mono-filament hangs a discrete amount of mistletoe. The background assures that it's not clearly seen unless you know where to look, and from my seated position, it's impossible to see against the light. The stealth master wins again.
"Well obviously it had to be over your head." he stated as he stalks around my desk toward me. "And then also I had to make sure you couldn't see it, mister observer that you are. And so I found the perfect blind spot for you." He crows as he finally lands in my lap and attacks my willing lips.
Jingle Bells
2 days until Christmas... second event.
Day has started out normal so far. Duo and I arrived at Preventers HQ at precisely 0745. We check in like we do every day, and proceed to our office. We check and return e-mails and check updates of current assignments. Duo usually keeps up a steady stream of chatter during this time, but I have learned to accept his soft noise as a white back-ground, I do know what he is speaking of most all the time though, because he is important to me, and I would never just totally ignore him.
Duo's phone rings at exactly 0820, I shamelessly listen to his side of the conversation. "Ho, ho, ho, this is Merry Maxwell. Oh, morning Qaut! Did you find 'em?! Cool! Yeah?! That's great! Ok. Yeah, u-huh, good. So Trow has them? When's he going get in today? Yeah? .... On a card? Kay. When? Great! Thanks. I knew you'd find 'em. Cool! See Ya!"
Duo hang up from this call softly singing, "Jingle bells, jingle bells, jingle all the way! Oh what fun it is to ride in a one horse open sleigh-HEY! Jingle bells, jingle bells, jingle all the way, oh what fun it is to ride in a one horse open sleigh. Mmmmm........." And he proceeded to hum and dance and bop out of our office on an errand he neglected to inform me about.
Oh well, I had work to do anyway. So I continued to hum Jingle Bells and scroll through my computer report... It seemed in no time there was a discrete cough from the door, and a muffled snort. I looked up to see Zech's and Wufei standing at my open door. Wufei had either swallowed something wrong or was choking on laughing. I suspect the latter.
"Well, what do you need? I made Maxwell take the Mistletoe down yesterday, so no free kisses today!" I smirked as Wufei choked harder and turned a lovely shade of scarlet! Zech's stared at me, then thumped Wufei helpfully on his back.
"Oh, nothing like that." He volunteered, "Just there's been strange ringing or jingling noises heard here and there around the office today, and Lady Une wanted you to be on the look out." Zech then lead Wufei off down the hall, mentioning a trip to the sick bay if his choking didn't get better, which seemed to increase Wufei's choking and gasping once again.
It was now 0900, and the braided baka had been gone for a good while. Of course I figured I could call him at Trowa's office, if I needed him... but why spoil his fun. I would await his return. Just about then is when the whirl wind came bursting back into our office, and there was a slightly more musical sound than there used to be. I scanned his clothing swiftly for tell tale bells, but saw none, where had he put them?
I watched as Duo bounced to his seat and dropped with a musical note into his chair, a broad grin spreading on his handsome face. I lowered my eyes before he looked my way, playing deaf to the extra jingling that accompanied his decent. At least Duo hadn't put on the Santa hat yet, like he had last year. Lady Une had not been amused at that. She said, "That hat is o.k. in private Maxwell, but is not to be repeated here at Preventer's HQ." (This of course was delivered with a hint of a smile.)
If Lady Une was upset, there could potential for physical contact, to locate the source of the bells. Visions of frisking one braided partner began to take shape in my head (maybe a strip search). I almost sent an e-mail to the Lady in question to see if she wanted me to locate the jingling bells post-haste!?!
"Hey Heero, It's beginning to sound a lot like Christmas ne?!" and he giggled, he didn't seem able to contain himself any longer.
Soberly I looked over at him, and told him. "Be careful Duo, Wufei was here earlier and ended up choking so badly that Zech's took him straight to sick-bay."
Duo shot a gleeful look towards the ceiling. "Really? Was Zech's sorry he missed the whole thing yesterday?"
"I don't think he had a clue what had even happened. But poor Wufei was turning scarlet he was choking so badly." Duo grinned "Served him right, after all the trouble he caused. Offering my hubby's kisses for free." "But Duo, Your the one who placed the Mistletoe."
"Yeah, but I had no way to know I was going to get called on a bust ." I stood up and approached my pouting partner. "What's the matter Duo, can't take it? It was all in the spirit of Christmas after all." "Yeah, well... I still don't have to like it... your kisses are special to me."
I sat on his lap, he softly jingled, I wiggled my hips, he groaned, and jingled some more. "What's wrong Duo? You don't sound so good. Do I need to take you home? You actually sound a little... unusual... Is there something you need to tell me? I heard there's this virus infecting the whole office... and it doesn't sound good to me at all!" Duo groaned again, "Heero, that's because you don't like jingle bells silly." I squirmed on his lap, realizing I wouldn't be able to get comfortable for two reasons; one Duo's natural endowment and two because of Duo's unnatural addition, several jingle bells.
