I don't want a lot for Christmas
There's just one thing I need
I don't care about presents
Underneath the Christmas tree
Duo sat beneath the huge Christmas tree, a goofy smile plastered on his face. Carefully he cut the red ribbons just so and bent the green foil just right. When he was finished he admired his work.
"If he won't tell me what he wants for Christmas, then I'll giving him something I know he'll like.... and can use all year long," he grinned, violet eyes twinkling with mirth.
I just want you for my own
More than you could ever know
Heero Yuy had to work late. Working with the preventers was taxing and how Duo got out of working on Christmas Eve was an amazement to him.... actually, with all of Duo's charm, he reminded himself, the boy had probably wormed his way out rather easily.
All he wanted right now was to get home to his sweet koi and make Christmas a little warmer.
"I love him so much.... how does he do it to me?" Heero said, smiling fondly.
Make my wish come true...
All I want for Christmas
Is you...
"Duo," Heero said to the thin, chill air about him, noting distractedly that it was beginning to snow. "I didn't ask for a thing, love.... cause I already have the one gift that I have always wanted and I don't need anything more...."
He grinned as two little children ran past him, giggling and tossing snowballs.
"Ok, well there could be more in our lives.... but all I really want for Christmas is you...." Heero dug in his pocket for his apartment key.
I don't want a lot for Christmas
There is just one thing I need
I don't care about presents
Underneath the Christmas tree
Heero stood in the foyer reminicing of past Christmases with his friends. Battles and Christmas trees, Quatre's safehouses and mixed traditions.
Heero looked into the living room. The tall wood paneled ceiling and the huge stone hearth with decorations and photos, Christmas cards and candy jars with red and green M&Ms (tm).
Heero smiled at the small number of presents under the tree. Duo hadn't set out many and Heero'd yet to set out the ones he was giving to his koi, they were hidden away from Duo's prying eyes.
I don't need to hang my stocking
There upon the fireplace
Santa Claus won't make me happy
With a toy on Christmas day
Heero looked at the homemade stockings on the mantle piece. Somewhere along the line, Duo'd learned to cross-stitch and had made them intricately designed stockings. Their names stitched in a diploma like design with tiny trinkets set into the letters. Christmas flowers and other appropriate items accented the rest of the cuff. The stocking part was a simple sock patterned with poinsettias. Why Duo felt the need to take so much time and so much effort just for an item that was used once a year, Heero could not see, but that is what Duo'd wanted.
I just want you for my own
More than you could ever know
Make my wish come true
All I want for Christmas is you...
You baby
Shaking his head, Heero turned toward the stairs, heading up to their room.
Candles lined the window sills, giving the halls a Holy light. Duo said they were to light the savior's way. Heero didn't mock him one bit, after all it was his holiday, his religion.
I won't ask for much this Christmas
I won't even wish for snow
I'm just gonna keep on waiting
Underneath the mistletoe
In passing, Heero looked out the window to see the snow coming down in full force. 'We might not make it on time for Quatre's party,' Heero thought, smiling. 'All the more time alone with my koi.....'
Heero was about to open the door when he heard a jungling above his head. He looked up to see a sprig of mistletoe and a couple of teeny bells hanging from the doorframe. Heero smiled warmly.
He opened the door to their 'suite'. The fire in the hearth blazed, warming the room and casting a homely glow about the darkened room.
I won't make a list and send it
To the North Pole for Saint Nick
I won't even stay awake to
Hear those magic reindeer click
'Cause I just want you here tonight
Holding on to me so tight
What more can I do
Baby all I want for Christmas is you
You...
Heero smiled at the scene. He loved their rooms for the simple fact that it was a close copy of the cabin in which they'd first made love. The floors and walls were wood paneled and the hearth was made of smoothe honey-brown bedstones. The couches, throws, and bedspreads were rich warm colors of gold and red with earth deep earth tones thrown in.
Heero remembered when he'd first taken the boy in his arms and kissed those sweet lips, the feel of startlement at the action, then the relaxing of every muscle in Duo's body as he gave over to the kiss, returning it passionately. (1)
If Heero would have asked for anything at all for Christmas, it would have been that feeling again.... that luscious warmth and electric happiness that came with love. Not that he didn't have that every hour of every day.... but too, that had been a Christmas.... their first Christmas together.... (2)
All the lights are shining
So brightly everywhere
And the sound of children's
Laughter fills the air
And everyone is singing
I hear those sleigh bells ringing
Santa won't you bring me the one I really need -
won't you please bring my baby to me...
Heero removed his jacket, still looking about the room, fondly recalling that fateful Christmas and imagining future ones.
The warm glow of the fire gave him illusions to play with. He could almost see Duo sitting on the couch palying with a baby or two, smiling down at it with the love only a mother could give. Children standing by the fireplace singing carols and posing for photos.
Heero walked over to the window, enjoying his dreams. Distantly, he heard sleigh bells jingle quietly, missing the sound of a door silently opening.
Oh I don't want a lot for Christmas
This is all I'm asking for
I just want to see baby
Standing right outside my door
Oh I just want him for my own
More than you could ever know
Make my wish come true
Baby all I want for Christmas is
You...
The jingle of a thousand little bells drew Heero's attention from the window to stare at the figure in the doorway.
Smiling violet eyes and a long chestnut braid distinguished the figure standing there.
Duo stood in the doorway under the mistletoe dressed in a green foil wrapped box with red ribbons tied about it and a white streaming bow interlaced in his long chestnut mane.
Heero smiled at his lover, going over to him.
"I wanted to give you your present early, since you didn't ask for much...." Duo said, smiling shyly.
Heero leaned down and kissed him. "Then I guess I'll give you yours...."
Reaching into his pocket, Heero pulled out a small box and opened it to show the boy its contents. Duo nearly ripped his way out of the box he worked so hard to make, and flung himself into his love's arms. Happy tears ran down his cheeks as he kissed everywhere he could reach.
"I take that as a yes," Heero said, and slid the ring on to Duo's long thin finger.
All I want for Christmas is you baby... (repeat)
Kissing happily, the a fianced couple spent the night reinacting their first night together, exploring each other's bodies as if they were new territory with vast riches to be plundered. And new surprises around every turn. And who knows, there just might be.... (3)
END
Sap sap sap sap sap!!!
Notes:
(1) Except one ne?
(2) I want to write a 'prequel' to this about that
X-mas.
(3) I want to write a 'sequel' where Duo has a
baby.... I WILL explain this, but I want to write one!
I think it would be ultra cute! But not that "Oh look,
Duo's pregnant, let's not ask why!" stuff... Don't
expect them anytime soon! But I will probably do them.
