Intermission - Minor Cuts And Abrasions

 

… … … … …

 

 

 

 

I'm not exactly sure when I woke up. I know it was night time, that much was obvious with the starlight from the window, the soothing blue shadows on the wall. I knew it was late, because I couldn't hear any noise at all from other areas of the stupidly small apartment, meaning Trowa and Quatre must have gone to bed. And Heero and Duo were sound asleep, still curled around me like a living blanket, and I took stock of the current situation.

 

I was naked. From what I could tell, Heero was naked as well, taught skin pressed tightly against mine. Duo must have shucked his clothes earlier, for he's only in boxer shorts, braid wrapped around one arm as he snores softly. Me? I'm sore, I feel sticky, and I feel a little pissed that to get up, I'll have to wake them up. A small, sad smile crosses my lips, and I resign myself to the fact that I probably won't be able to escape from here till morning.

 

And damn, am I sore! He was so gentle...well, the sentiment was gentle, at least...but that doesn't excuse the fact that in the past few days, I've had two things go where there has never been two things before. I should have expected the soreness…sore butt, sore back, sore ribs…but, seriously? That small pain only reminds me of what I've done….what we've done…it's a good thing, alright?

 

I sigh, and trace my fingertips across Duo's shadowed lips. Very good…

 

Oh fuck it. I need a shower!

 

“Up! Move, out of my way, out….” I push both of them with my arms, until they're groaning, disturbed from what must have been….for them…a very pleasant sleep. Duo's lips curl into a grimace, and I shake him until bleary cobalt eyes snap open, blinking rapidly. “What!?”

 

“Get the fuck out of my way!” His eyes widen as I kick him off the bed, Heero making a resounding thud as he falls off the other side…and then my will to move leaves, dust flying from its rapid retreat. I sigh happily, wriggling deeper into the sheets, and ignore the two incredulous stares fixed on me, trying my darn hardest to get back to that peaceful dream I was having. A foot long sub, me, alone, flying on the back of a giant sea horse…

 

“Wufei…?”

 

“Shhh…the sub, it calls me…”

 

“He is on drugs, isn't he?”

 

“No, Heero…I think he's tired. What did you guys do, anyway?”

 

You know…I could have sworn, as my eyes opened just a slit…that Heero blushed for a moment. “Uh…nothing?” Duo, once he finishes gaping, smirks with a troublesome idiosyncrasy that makes me try and crawl out of the sleepy hole I just dragged myself into. “Riiiiight…say, remember this at all? `Fuck me, Heero!' The old lady next door heard it, and thinks we're all perverted freaks. No offence, `Fei.” Heero does blush this time, great big technicolour red, and I chuckle wearily as they drag themselves back onto the bed.

 

“You guys wore me out. And I need a shower. Anyone offering to drag this sorry carcass to hot water and cleansing soap…?”

 

They blink at me, before exchanging evil smiles and snickers, and I sigh resignedly as I try to get comfortable. “Thought not,” I answer myself ruefully, and Heero shyly kisses my cheek before he says, “In a minute. I'm still not awake enough yet.”

 

“Hmmm…too good for me, Beasty Yuy.”

 

“Not good enough” he murmurs, and I blink as his warm, soft mouth covers mine. Wow. Pleasantness. Yanno, a guy could get used to all these kisses…but since I have two lovers, will I ever get used to it? Is what we have even a part of normality?

 

Aw, shit, who gives a flying fuck off an opera house balcony.

 

I roll him onto his back, lips still locked, and my eyes lazily close as our tongues twine about each other like serpents. His skin is so soft, and warm…the muscles rippling beneath it so tempting, something you have to rub your fingers over, just to test them…

 

Reaching blindly around me, lips drawing and closing with surprising swiftness against Heero's, I catch a loosely curled hand, and drag the owner of said object towards me. Duo lands next to Heero with a stunned cry, and I regretfully disengage that wonderful kiss, so I can look down at the both of them.

 

Despite the only light being from the stars, I can see them clearly enough for the sight to take my breath away. Looking up at me, both with the tiniest smiles on beautiful lips, limbs loose and relaxed and eyes lazy with the sleep I so rudely intruded upon. Gods, they're so magnificent. And they're…mine…

 

“Beautiful…” I murmur, rubbing a hand over Duo's chest, and he gulps as his eyes lock with Heero's for a moment before snapping back to me. “So feral…so fucking wild…” They both blink up at me for a moment, before Duo cracks a smile, his eyes crinkling with laughter. “I'm not some animal, `Fei, alright?” I shake my head, smiling a little also, and say in a whisper, “I know. I was just remembering…how you let it all go…you were like I was, with Heero.” Heero licks his lips and sighs, eyes closing, and Duo studies him for a moment before looking back up at me. “'Fei?….why are you sitting like that…?”

 

Oh. Right. Just because I'm letting no contact from them or the bed, with the lower half of my body…it means nothing, alright? I mean, no contact isn't really an ironclad law or rule, and no contact doesn't necessarily mean- alright. Alright, alright…so I'm so sore I can't bear the thought of even sitting down a little. Not that I have to let them know. Nope.

 

Heero turns to Duo, a slightly worried expression on his face. “I think he's sore.” Thanks a lot, Beasty Yuy! You assho- ouch. Even the word makes me cringe…heh.

 

Teething gel. That's what I need.

 

Never ask me how I know that.

 

“'Fei?” Duo pushes himself up on one arm, braid swinging behind him, and Heero closely inspects my face with widened Prussian eyes, the slant there extended by luminous starlight.

 

“Not that bad,” I mumble, turning away, and gingerly sit down, expecting the worse, even though I want to prove I can do so. Uh…okay…..more gently…oh fuck. So….I can't exactly prove I can do it, since it's so bloody obvious I can't. I sigh as I grab onto their arms, already there when I began to sway a little, and I let them pull me down so that I'm lying on my side, between their tense bodies.

 

I'm face to face with Heero, and he bites his lips as he runs a cautious hand up my side. Why does he look so…so…worried? “I'm so sorry, Wufei…” he whispers, and my eyes widen as I understand his timidness. Oh, hell no. He didn't exactly cause this, and I won't have anyone beating themselves up on my sake! “Listen…this was bound to happen” I say softly, running a hand across his chest, leaning in to press a gentle, biting kiss above his right nipple. “It'll go away. You know how fast we all heal…”

 

“But…” Duo starts, and I turn to hush him, one finger against his lips. “Shhh” I whisper, to emphasize the command, and they both watch me as I swing myself to the edge of the bed.

 

“Minor cuts and abrasions. Not even worth the teething gel…Gods, don't ask. I'll go have a shower, and I'll be right back, okay?”

 

They nod silently, sitting up to watch me leave, and I roll my eyes when my back is to them. It's…nice, that they care so much, but hell, it's kinda annoying. Having relied on myself for so long…my life, my own….fending off the countless depression that used to make up my daily life…

 

It's weird…to have others care…

 

“Wufei…uh…you're bleeding…”

 

Well, alright, maybe not so weird.

 

“Chemist now, teething gel, Aloe Vera cream, and then the supermarket for ice creams for all of us.” They blink at me, slightly horrified eyes glued to the back of my thighs, and I glare as I snap my fingers. “Now!” I want to laugh as they both pull on their clothes, running out the door even before I give them some credits to play with.

 

Not so weird at all.

 

Now…about that shower…
