Not a worm; don't like worms. =p Icky, slimy things. The early dragon gets... Oh! O.O; Of course! ^___^ The early Dragon gets the sleeping Banshee!

But... not this week. ^.o This week is more of Lockjaw.

The smell woke him up.

I know that smell, he thought fuzzily. Don't like that smell.

Then something tickled his nose and brushed his lips. He muttered dire threats to whatever bug or bit of dust dared to annoy his sleep.

"Wake up, babe," said a low voice next to his ear.

"Don wanna..." he whined. "Tell OZ it's too early...."

"Come on, hon; Sally wants to check your eyes."

"Sally...?" he mumbled. He pried one eye open and the doctor's face swam into view. "Huh...?"

"You haven't a clue yet, have you?" she smirked.

"Huh?"

She chuckled at that. "And you thought he wouldn't be able to talk."

"I said that *Chang* said he wouldn't be able to talk; I know better."

"Well, how about if you give Sleeping Beauty a kiss and then run along to your interrogation."

Heero snorted and obediently leaned over his owlishly blinking husband to brush his lips gently over Duo's. "I'll be back soon. You can come home tomorrow if you're good today."

"Um-hmmm...” Duo sighed, still mostly asleep.
