In The Bedroom: Night 10

"Heero?"

"Hn?"

"Nothing..."

Heero swivelled in his chair, turned away from his mission report and stared. It was not a glare. Simply a stare, but he knew Duo felt it otherwise and schooled his face to blank.

The blanket covered the damage, hid the marks that would soon be scars, were scars already in ways, but the blanket was invisible to Heero. The form shook lightly, sweat glittered on the forehead, the eyes blinked behind the closed lids. Awake, but wishing he wasn't.

Heero didn't bother to shut down the laptop, he just hit the switch at the wall as he kicked the chair back, out of the way, and headed to the bed.

Such a simple thing to peel a blanket back, to crawl in beside the injured and offer warmth, comfort, a night without the nightmares.

"Heero?"

"Hn."

A slight squeeze around his waist, attempted with all his strength.

"Thanks."

"Welcome."

"Hn." Unison.
