Table 7, #22 - Head over Heels
With a violent curse, Duo slammed out of the apartment, the door shaking the walls to either side, rattling pictures on the wall; Heero stood gripping a glass in his hand, willing himself to set it down on the counter and not throw it after Duo. It took several long breaths before he felt in control enough to begin picking up pieces of a broken plate, scrambled eggs, bacon, and toast; he spent extra time scrubbing the jam from the grout of the kitchen tiles, stopping only when his scratch pad was more white than purple.
Once upon a time, his life was simple, easy and structured from the time he woke to the time he laid down again, and there was no one to impose their own will upon his; but, despite his wishes to the contrary, Duo had, and kept pushing his case without asking for a return, and Heero was helpless in its face. Putting the breakfast things away before pouring another cup of coffee and taking a seat at the table, he waited.
Five, maybe ten minutes later, the door opened slowly, and Duo walked in, an apology on his lips and a look in his eyes showing his words to be true; with an accepting grin, Heero pulled Duo close, knowing his life would never be simple again, never easy, and he wouldn’t want it to be any other way.
