With a yawn, Heero Yuy opened his eyes to greet the morning, and immediately searched around for the picture of Duo he had held in his arms as he'd gone to sleep. //Where is it? Don't tell me I...// With a light sigh, Heero unearthed the framed picture from the heaps of blankets and held it with crossed arms to his chest. //I thought I'd lost you...//
With a determined grin, Heero slid out of bed, and began packing his things up, only leaving out clothes to get changed into. //I'm coming home, Duo. Just, when I get there, please say you missed me.//
~I'll have a blue Christmas without you~
~I'll be so blue thinking about you~
After taking a shower and getting dressed, Heero grabbed his suitcase and dredged through the snow that liberally coated the ground. He threw the suitcase into the car, and strapped himself into the driver's seat. Taking a deep breath, he started the car and backed out of the drive. //Damn. The snowplows haven't come through yet. I'll have to be careful.//
~Decorations of red~
~on a green Christmas tree~
~Won't mean a thing if~
~you're not here with me~
Driving down the road at fifteen miles per hour, Heero's fingers tensed. //I want to go faster. The roads were clear when I came out here, so it only took a few hours. They're covered right now and this car barely has any drive in it, let alone four-wheel drive. I want to go ninety, not nineteen!//
Heero was determined to make it back. His speed gradually increased as he went down the road, beginning to ignore the white slush that painted the ground. //I've got to get there!//
A short distance down the road, Heero was about to turn around a corner when a deer ran out in the road. Throwing his foot off of the gas pedal, but avoiding the brakes because of the road conditions, Heero swerved and found himself, a moment later, just a hair's width away from being stuck in a ditch, or so he was certain. //That was lucky. That was incredibly lucky.//
Catching his breathe, Heero pulled back onto the road, but watched his speed this time. //I can't get back to Duo if I'm dead. Better late than never, better safe than sorry.//
~I'll have a blue Christmas, that's certain~
~And when that blue heartache starts hurting~
Noticing a sign that claimed he was halfway back, Heero pulled off to the side of the road. He opened his suitcase and grabbed the picture of Duo. Once he closed the suitcase and the door it was now behind, Heero placed himself back in the driver's seat with the picture at his side. //There. We'll call that initiative and drive. Oh, gah! Bad pun. Duo... what have you done to me?//
~You'll be doing all right~
~with your Christmas of white~
~But I'll have a blue, blue Christmas~
//I'll make it. I must. Duo... here I come.//
Owari. ^__~
