I have totally lost track of time this month. I would have sworn the month had barely begun and here it is half over. =P And I am jonesing for the forbidden junk food - peanut butter M&Ms and barbecue potato chips. *sigh* Add that to the headache I suddenly seem to have and I am rather peeved. Maybe if I get out tomorrow, it'll help. Buy the kid a 64-ounce soda and he'll go anywhere. ^___^
BFB – Part 103 – Crazy is as Crazy Does
Heero was already waiting when we arrived. He wrapped me in his arms, just holding onto me and I clung back for what felt like an age. When I lifted my head from his shoulder, Tiffany was long gone.
“How’d it go?” I asked hesitantly.
“Not bad at all,” he smirked. “Although my wrists are sore from all the writing I had to do. In Wyvern, Japanese *and* old Latin.” He flexed one hand.
“You… Writing? What were you writing?”
“Lines,” he sighed. “Just as I did when I was nine. One thousand times in each language. ‘I will not behead Humans without due diligence.’”
I blinked at him. “Was Giniro angry?”
He shook his head. “Giniro and Faiesa were almost strangling trying to not laugh at me. They were angry at the situation. And at that miserable Human for putting Q and I in that spot to begin with. Idiot,” he growled.
“So… just some lines and everything is fine?” I still found it hard to believe.
“Mostly. I am hungry,” he declared. “Food first, cuddle second, details later,” he commanded.
I had a feeling his ‘later’ might be a considerable distance from my ‘later’, but I’d get it out of him eventually. I know how to make his toes curl.
He made his change with a toothy grin, opened his arms and I stepped into them. We flew to our tower and I had all of two minutes to get the ravishment started when the knock on the door split us apart.
“Who the hell…?” I muttered, but he just laughed and opened the door.
The house Elves maneuvered the catering cart through the door, flashed matching grins at Heero and bowed themselves out again, all in one practiced motion.
“What?!” I demanded.
“I told you,” he said with a smirk. “Food first, ravishment second. Then we can meet with Ctik and I will give you some details. Close enough?”
I *was* pretty hungry… and the ravishment part wasn’t a bad idea at all…
“Yeah, okay. What’s under the shiny dome?”
“Protein. You’ll need it.”
So, he was right. He’s almost always right. I gave it up gracefully, ate my dinner and then… had dessert.
