A Simple Observation: Chapter Two- The Mall

By, Goddess Shinigami

As the weeks wore on I got even more worried about the standpoint of the war. I hadn't gotten any new missions and it seemed as if things were going to die down for good. Duo seemed as happy as he had been the first day he came. I swear he is way to cheerful for his own good. Hmm. . .he should be back from Astronomy class by now. Heero thought looking at the door. Why Duo had chosen to take a class that started at midnight was beyond me. Just then he walked in the door and I turned back to my laptop.

"Oi, Heero, you're not on that stupid thing again? I was hoping to talk to you about Astronomy class." Duo said flopping down on his bed. He let out an exasperated sigh and pulled something out of a bag he was holding.

"Hn, baka." I snorted. Like I wanted to hear about his stupid class. There's no need for astronomy, especially when your cheating in all your other classes.

Duo stared at Heero for a minute trying to think of what to say to his non specific response. " Well, if you insist. We were studying the stars nearest the moon. Not really that interesting, but I got to gaze at the moon for quite sometime. It's actually quite beautiful. So I got some. . ."

Heero drown Duo out and drifted into his own world for a minute. The moon is beautiful? Relena is beautiful. Duo is beautiful. At this he snapped out of his trance staring blankly at the screen of his laptop. What am I thinking? This is Duo. My partner in battle! Heero shook his head an looked in Duo's direction. He was putting up some fake glow in the dark stars and a very large moon.

"See, Heero. Now I don't have to climb out on the roof to see the stars." He said sticking the last of the stars to the ceiling. "Well, if your not going to say anything I'm going to bed." and with that Duo turned off the lights and the room was filled wit a soft green glow from the fake stars.

"Duo?" Heero questioned quietly wondering if the braided baka was asleep yet. Why was he even attempting to talk to Duo? He knew if the boy wasn't asleep that the talking would start again and wouldn't stop. Then he wouldn't get anything done. Not that he was doing anything.

"Hai, Heero?" Duo replied sleepily from across the room.

"Nevermind." Heero said turning back to his laptop. There was a new message beeping on it. Hmm. . .wonder who this is from. Heero though hacking to the e-mail. Oh damn it all, after I go through the whole process of changing my e-mail and destroying all traces of my last one, Relena has found me, again!

Heero deleted the message and turned off his laptop. He just sat there staring at the black screen for awhile, his mind blank. As the sun started to poke through the darkness of night Heero crawled into his bed for a few minutes of needed sleep.

That day was Saturday and Heero was awakened by someone bouncing on his bed. Undoubtedly, Duo. Heero opened his eyes to see the black clad Deathscythe pilot bouncing up and down energetically on his bed.

"Baka! What in Kami's name are you doing?" Heero growled from under the covers. Unfortunately the safety of the covers didn't last long. Duo jumped off the bed and proceeded to pull Heero and the covers off of the bed.

"Were going to the mall! I gotta get a new brush and they put in a new Goth store. I have to go there. Now get up, sleepy head. The mall opens in twenty minutes. I wanna get there before the all the crowds." Duo said excitedly. With that said he left the room leaving Heero and his covers sprawled out on the floor in a sort of stunned daze.

Heero recovered quickly and stood to get dressed. He pulled on his trademark black spandex shorts and green tank top. Heero surveyed the room and decided to tidy up a bit because he hated things when they weren't organized. He made his and Duo's beds and put the dirty clothes in a basket by the bathroom. "Now, that looks more like the Perfect Soldier's room." he said to himself as Duo walked in the room.

"Oh, so you'll talk to yourself, but you won't talk to me? I see how it is. Your wearing that to the mall?" Duo said as he looked over Heero's outfit. It was truly sad. The boy had no fashion sense at all. "We're gonna have to get you some new clothes. Hmm. . .you'd really look good in all black." Duo looked him up and down once more and then pulled Heero out of the door.

Once they arrived at the mall via local transportation i.e. the bus. Heero was dragged into the front entrance. Duo just stood there in awe trying to decided which store to go into first. He looks all cute when he's thinking. Heero thought looking at his companion. NO! No, no, no I can't be thinking that. He is just that; my companion. Heero told himself as they started walking.

"Hey, Heero, come on! We gotta get your new clothes!" Duo yelled leading him into a dark store. The music was blasting to Timbuktu in there. Duo walked in with Heero at his heals. Occasionally Duo would pull something off a rack and carry it with him. By the time they had walked over the whole of the store Duo and Heero's arms were full of clothing. "Come on. Now we have to try them own so we can prance around in front of everyone else!" Duo yelled heading towards the dressing rooms.

Duo handed him an armful of clothes to go with the armful he already had and pulled over a stray rack to hand them all on. When he was finished hanging all of the picked clothes up he handed Heero one outfit and sent him into the dressing room. Heero came out in black leather pants and a black tank top with a studded collar. He looked in the mirror and made a face.

"Duo, this stuff looks. . .horrible on me!"

Duo just stood there looking at Heero. OK we have to keep the pants, but the shirt has to go. It's not tight enough. He thought as he looked through the rack of clothes. He pulled out a shirt and handed it to Heero. "Here, change your shirt."

Heero obediently walked back to the dressing room and changed the shirt he had on and cam out in the same leather pants with a red spandex shirt and carrying the black shirt in his hand. He handed it to Duo who hung it back up.

"Now, I like this shirt."

Duo looked a Heero again. "I do too. That's a keeper!"

"Can we go now?"

"Nope, you've got to try on all this other stuff!" Duo said handing Heero another outfit making sure something in it was leather. Leather is defiantly Heero's style. Duo thought watching the boy walking back

into the dressing room.

This went on for several hours and by the time they had gone through all the clothes Duo had picked out, they were hungry. Duo paid for the three bags of clothes, including a very long leather jacket for himself and they left the store heading for the food court.

They arrived in the food court and like Duo not being able to decide which store to go in first he couldn't decided where to eat. They stood there for a good thirty minutes before Heero suggested they go to Tokyo Take Out for some Japanese food. Duo complied and they both ate in silence. This only being that Duo's mouth was stuffed with food the whole time and he wasn't able to talk.

"OK, I have to go get a new brush now and then we can leave." Duo said standing up from his chair. he grabbed the three bags and pulled Heero from his seat leaving their trash on the table.

They got to the hair salon where Duo was getting his brush and Heero saw that it was fairly expensive. Heero picked one up and took it to the counter while Duo was still looking at hair gels. He paid for it and handed it to Duo.

"Wha. . .You didn't have to."

"Hn. . .You bought me all these clothes. I had to get you something." Heero stated and pulled Duo out of the salon. They weaved their way back through the mall to where the bus had dropped them off. They stood outside under an awning because it had started to rain. The bus arrived and they boarded it finally on their way home.

Heero got to their dorm and unlocked the door pushing it open for Duo letting him through. Duo set their bags down on his bed and started to separate the clothing into two piles. A pile for him and a pile for Heero. When he was finished there was a massive stack of black, red, and purple on his bed and another stack of black, red , and green on Heero's bed.

"You really didn't have to do this." He said sitting down at his desk and switching on the laptop. He scanned the screen for any messages and was disappointed when there were none. I'll go insane with another mission less week. Heero thought to himself turning from the computer to Duo.

"Yes, I did have to. My god your were wearing spandex and a tank top. That tell me you have no fashion sense and I will not have my roommate be a fashion victim. Not while I'm around anyway." Duo said hanging all the clothes up in the closet.

Heero glanced at Duo, then stood up and stretched. "I'm going to go for a walk. I need to think for awhile. I'll be back later. Don't wait up." He told Duo as he walked out the door and closed it noiselessly.

"Humph! He can't even help put all these clothes away!" Duo whined and he got out a bunch more hangers to start hanging up Heero's clothes, too.
