And a cheer-up fic... I think I have to say thanks to Minky-san for the idea.
"Oh gods its hot down here!" Duo yelled.
"Yes. its even hotter than usual." Quatre agreed.
"This isn't the vacation that I wanted, is it? I thought it'll be great to spend time in L4, but... even the air condition isn't working well enough." Duo said, as he fanned him life off.
Heero could only scowl. His facial expression betrayed nothing. But Duo knew he's burning too. Judging by the reddening skin. Trowa and Wufei fared slightly better, but its because Trowa is quite uncaring... well, what do you expect, a turtleneck, longsleeve... scorching hot? Wufei, he came from a part of the land where it's scorching in summer and snowed in winter, he's adjustable...
Zechs felt his hair sticking onto his back and Treize felt it's so hot that he thought his split brow just went off even further. They weren't the type of 'sun person'. They could handle snow, and... ehem.. even made out once in the middle of a snow drift.. but here? It's too hot they thought its hell.
So there they are, stuck in the drawing room, drinking cold drinks, five air conditioners turned up full, seven electric fans up to the maximum, and they themselves, fanning like mad.
But the desert sun is just unbelievable!
Night came and everyone soaked themselves in the coldest water they could get themselves into, and its kinda nice. Helps to clear the sweat and hot from their body. There's groans of 'aaaaah' ringing across the mansion as the cold water chase away the hotness of the weather... and.. wait a second, did I hear that right? Straining a bit more.. you could hear..
*QUACK*
And then.. sounds of hands slapping foreheads and groans of: "Treize... not again..."
But there you go. And everyone went off to bed... and sleep buck-naked. I think having a hot weather had its own merit you see.
The night wasn't as hot as the day, but its well above boiling point as well.
Late at night, a figure slipped out from one of the rooms and crept up to the kitchen and opened the large fridge. You know, being part of a Winner family, means you get a fridge twice the size of an elephant.
In the morning the cook let out a big scream and ran around the mansion practically waking everyone up. A very effective morning call I should say, and soon all people started to rush into the kitchen. Groaning how hot the morning is.
And there they found, Duo, curled INSIDE the fridge, and all the food spilled on the ground, completely stale... and...
They could hear him sigh peacefully.
