PM: Again, this is the real chapter 4.

Wufei shifted nervously in his seat in Treize's office. It wasn't that the antique chair with its twin placed on the other side of the man's desk wasn't comfortable to sit in, but because the Chinese boy knew that this had something to do with what he and Duo had done in the late morning. He was sure of this because Duo was waiting outside in Une's office, waiting for his turn, while the woman took a chance to scold the boy. She, herself, had gotten wind of what the two had done. She even dared to scold Mr. Treize for being too easy with Duo's punishment the first couple of times he had done this with his friends and had been caught. Giving Duo a talking too wasn't working, she insisted and she wanted to try something harsher to fix his behavior.

Treize brushed her off, knowing that a 'paddling' discipline wasn't something he was going to allow on his kids and said he would take care of things. Une must have had a harsh upbringing. So while Wufei was shifting nervously in Treize's office, Duo was being drilled in Une's. The indigo-eyed boy was flatly ignoring her.

' I will not let him imitate me. No matter how long he makes me wait to scold me, ' Wufei was telling himself. He took his mind off the matters at present by looking around Treize's office. The man had a taste for antiqued, European furniture. It was nothing like his bathroom. The darker wood that paired in harmony with the hues of reds used on the patterned upholstery, to the carpet, and curtains framing the two large windows on either side of Treize's desk. Personal knickknacks were placed here and there on tables, bookshelves, and the desk. A few framed diplomas hung proudly on a wall. A bouquet of white roses stood resting in a Chinese vase ended the eye tour of Treize's office.

Wufei glanced back at the man in question and found Treize gazing at him. The Chinese boy flushed, from embarrassment or something else he wouldn't admit to himself, like the chance that Treize thought he was attractive, a thought picked up from the going-ons of yesterday. Wufei scolded himself for even thinking, wondering if Khushrenada thought he was attractive and met Treize's gazing sapphire blue eyes with a scowl. It was hard to glare at someone when your heart picked up a few notches when staring into naturally seductive eyes of a gorgeous man who was Treize Khushrenada. Those eyes lowered just slightly and Wufei's forehead puckered, wondering what the heck Treize was looking at now? Why not scold him and be done with it?

' Oh, no. He has to toy with me first! ' Wufei thought, fighting the urge to roll his eyes. He might have before, but the Chinese boy was sent in here to be disciplined and Wufei wasn't going to press his luck with the man.

Wufei's lips, Treize mused, were just the perfect shade and shape. Not too pink and not too flesh toned and just full enough that they fit the shape of his face in perfect harmony. Khushrenada had a sudden desire to see how they'd look set in a pout. An expression that he would probably never see graced upon the boy Treize thought regrettably. Were they just as soft and yielding as they looked?

" Wufei, " Treize spoke up to get the boy's attention. When he had it, the taller man tapped a corner of his own mouth with a finger and then gestured the boy to come forward with the same hand as he leaned towards the boy, " You, ahem, have something on your… "

Wufei had already leaned forward himself, acting upon the gesture before he knew what he was doing and when Treize politely indicated that he had something on his face left from breakfast, the Chinese boy flustered, moving back to wipe it away, but Treize had already caught his face in his large, warm hand.

" Allow me to… " Treize's other thumb brushed away at nothing. Sneaky it was, but the handsome older man could care less as he stroked the boy's warm skin by the side of his mouth a few times before brushing his thumb across Wufei's lips. A started, tiny gasp that escaped the boy's lips from the warm feeling it left behind caused both to draw closer to each other. Wufei's eyes drooped slightly as one might before they were kissed, but both seemed to suddenly remember where they were and drew back quickly.

Treize was all smiles inside, now assured that the lovely little dragon was indeed attracted to him, while Wufei scolded himself for wanting Treize to kiss him. His cheek tingled from where it had been held by the gingered haired man, as did his lips. Treize cleared his throat, gathering up some papers together and became professional again. He had almost lost self-control when Wufei had gasped at his touch and it wouldn't do to jump the boy on his second day at the home in his private office. That and Wufei would hate him for such a violation after the brief, but swift moment of capturing his lips with his own was over.

" Wufei, it has come to my attention that you have purchased some personal items with a certain account without being giving proper permission. "

Wufei jumped up to his feet, " But Duo-! It was my idea! I asked! "

Treize held up his hand, a little taken back by Wufei's swift loyalty to someone he had just met. A friend. ' Ah, dragon. ' " Be that as it may, what's done is done. The passwords are being changed as we speak and while I'll look away just this once for you, Wufei, Duo will be punished this time. He's done this before for some of his friends and he's been warned of what would happen if he carried on with this violation. "

" B-but- " Wufei began.

" -That's not fair? " Treize finished, " I could make you both pay for the items in question. "

Wufei closed his mouth. He didn't have the money and he doubted Duo did either. Treize winked at him catching the distress and concern in his dark eyes, " Don't worry, dragon, I'll only have Duo wash the black boards for six months. Funds for personal items would have been provided for you eventually as all my kids are, but I guess Duo wanted to make you feel a bit more welcomed here with a shopping spree. "

The raven-haired boy nodded. " And I apologize for using your money without your permission, Mr. Khushrenada, " Wufei said humbly, looking at his hands in his lap.

" Since we are apologizing, I will end this with saying that I'm also sorry if I've done or said anything to offend you when we first met, " Treize replied. The boy looked up at him. Sapphire eyes smiled at him, sincerity to be found within them. Wufei almost felt a little guilty for ever feeling a grudge against the man.

The raven-haired boy gave a little sigh. ' I don't understand you at all, Khushrenada. You can be a charming man one moment and a manipulating bastard the next. '

Treize chuckled, his elbows resting on his desk, " I'm sorry you think I'm so two faced, Wufei, but at least you're honest. "

Wufei flushed. Had he said that out loud?

" I appreciate honesty in those around me, " Treize added. He stood up,

" Well, now that we've had this talk, you can go on your way, Wufei 'til we speak again. On your way out, tell Duo to go on his way as well. I'm sure Ms. Une has giving him a much harsher talking to then I would like, but… "

The man shrugged and opened the door. The woman in question snapped up from standing over Duo once Treize entered the room, plastering a smile upon her face.

" Duo is ready to see you, sir, " she said.

" And I'm sure you've already giving him a talking too, " Treize said without any humor in his voice. He looked at the boy, " Duo, you'll be washing all the black boards for the next six months once school starts up and this will be the last time you do this? Agree? "

" Yes sir! " Duo grinned at taller man, but took his word seriously. Mr. Khushrenada was an easygoing man, but even Duo knew he had his limits and didn't want to find the ends to them. It could be even scarier then one might imagine.

" Sir, since Duo and I were in this together, I will join in Duo's punishment, " Wufei spoke up.

" But- "

" I'm every bit as guilty as he is, " Wufei interrupted the man. He glanced up at Treize, to dare the man to try and change his mind.

" If that's what's you want, " Treize said, seeing the sternness in the boy's eyes. Duo had better never abuse the boy's loyalty.

" Fei-kun, I love you! " Duo chirped, locking Wufei into a hug.

" Wufei, Maxwell, my name is Wufei! " The Chinese boy argued with the American as they left Une's office. Treize chuckled at their retreating figures. Une simply frowned. Her already being prejudice against Wufei, she took it upon herself to think that when Duo hugged him and Wufei didn't push him away in disgust, that he was competition for Treize's affections and would make sure she found a way to remove the boy from the center.
