Table 7, #20 - See Through You
Seated at a picnic table, Heero was having lunch with his partner at an open air walk-up; not his choice of eateries, but his partner enjoyed the chili-cheese dogs (at which Heero shuddered every time the man ordered them) at this particular place, therefore, Heero indulged him his requests once a week. His partner, Williams, was in the middle of a story on ‘why one doesn’t want to answer a domestic disturbance call’ (about some woman who called, then proceeded to slug the officer arresting her husband!) when Duo straddled the bench at Heero’s side, nodding to Williams to continue with the story. Heero lost a few fries before Duo inserted his reason for the lunchtime visit between Williams’ story and bites from his chili-cheese dog.
“Montoya’s putting in a transfer to Cold Cases, and I’m thinking about joining her,” Duo had announced, picking up Heero’s soda and taking a drink, watching Heero the whole time.
A lifetime flashed in a moment, and Heero pictured Duo in every aspect of their careers, joining the force together, being in the same squad, on the job as partners until they became lovers, and throughout it all, he knew there was always something more that Duo had wanted; he smiled his acceptance, and loved that Duo instantly relaxed - his hope to be able to put the dead to rest, and families at ease from cases not easily closed.
