Again C&C is welcome.
Wufei was smiling. Why was he smiling? Because not only did he have the safehouse to himself but had found the last bag of jumbo marshmallows hiding in the back of a closet in the kitchen.
What does a bag of marshmallows have to do with Wufei smiling? Unknown to all of the pilots, Wufei had a secret passion for toasted marshmallows, the way they taste all hot and gooey in your mouth, extra burnt makes them even yummier.
Sneaking the bag under his shirt, Wufei tiptoed down the hall, into his room and locked the door behind him.
/No telling when the others might get back and I don't want them to see me being weak. Duo would certainly laugh at me and since I haven't really figured out my feelings for the braided baka I really would not like to see him make fun of me./
Pulling some tools from his pack, Wufei placed a small cooker on the floor making sure it was safe so that he didn't burn the house down then grabbed the marshmallows, bar of chocolate, graham crackers, and sat down to enjoy a well deserved treat. As an after thought he pulled out some incense and burned it near the door and windows to keep any unwanted persons from smelling his secret.
With slow precise movement, Duo dragged his aching body toward the safehouse a bed all that he was thinking about at the moment. Just as he got to the door he smelled something burning, looking towards one of the windows outside he saw tendrils of smoke coming from Wufei's room.
/Uh oh, Wu must be sleep if he can't smell the smoke, he might be in danger. I had better put it out./
Panicked, Duo ran to the side of the safehouse grabbed the large garden hose, turned on the water and raced into the house. "Don't worry Wu-babe I'm coming!" Duo shouted. Water sprayed everywhere as Duo kicked the door open and sprayed the water where he thought the fire was coming from.
Wufei was just about to eat his first S'more when he heard a shout, the voice sounding very familiar. His door burst open and water drench him from head to toe. Sputtering, he tried to shout but more water blasted at him, putting out his small burner and ruining the marshmallows beyond repair. When the water finally stopped, he looked in the direction of the supposed hero and saw Duo looking confused at him and around the room.
"Maxwell, what in the HELL did you think you were doing?" Wufei said calmly.
"I saw smoke coming from your window and I thought your room was on fire, so I grabbed the hose and ran in here to put the fire out. Hehehe." Duo put a hand behind his head, his face flaming red.
"You …came in here…because you thought I was in trouble?" Wufei asked in awe.
"Yeah, I'm sorry about ruining whatever it was that you was doing, Wu. I'll go put this away and come help you switch rooms."
"Switch rooms? What are you talking about? There are no extra rooms, Maxwell."
"Duh I know that. I'm giving you my room; it was my fault for not checking to see if there was any threat. So I'll take the couch and you can have my bed." Wufei watched as Duo left the room and put the hose away. Once he was alone, Wufei looked down at his wet clothes and then behind him at his bed, which was drenched, the situation became funny then and he laughed. Doubling over to hold his stomach, Wufei laughed so hard tears came from his eyes.
Duo ran into the room wondering what was all that noise and was shocked to see Wufei rolling on the wet floor laughing. "What's so funny?"
"My…room." Wufei gasped before going into another round of laughter. Lifting a brow, Duo shook his head and helped Wufei off the floor.
"You sure do pick a time to start losing your mind."
"I am not losing my mind. The fact that you ran into my room with a water hose and drenched my marshmallows…" Wufei stopped and blushed.
"Marshmallows? What were you doing with marshmallows?"
"None of your business. So are you going to move my stuff or what?" Duo didn't listen, he was too busy looking at the floor where a bar of chocolate, soggy graham crackers, and melted marshmallows lay scattered all over the place.
"I didn't know you were into S`mores, Fei."
"I…uh.." Wufei looked around the room, clearly embarrased.
"Oh I getcha." Duo winked at Wufei and pushed him toward the bathroom. "I'll move your stuff you get dry."
Closing the bathroom door, Wufei leaned against the door, a smile on his face.
/Maybe just maybe, I'm falling in love with the baka after all./
