Drabble 24
Dashing down the hallway, I barely managed to slide into the elevator right before the doors closed. Panting, I leaned against the doors, grateful to have escaped.
"Duo? Do I even want to know?"
I looked up to find my partner regarding me with amusement. It wasn't an unusual look for him, but I wasn't going to complain about being the focus of his attention.
"Une brought in some diplomats today-"
"Older lady and her entourage?"
"That's the one. She made me show them over the training center."
"They seemed nice enough when I met them-"
"Heero, my ass is black and blue. They kept pinching me and giggling. When I finished, they kept pressuring me to go back to the embassy with them- I finally just ran."
"I see they managed to kiss you before you escaped." He was grinning.
"How do you know that?"
"Lipstick on your cheek. Several colors."
"What?" I brushed at my cheek then looked at my hand, dismayed to find my fingers several shades of red. "Crap! How do I-"
"Here." Heero took my hand in his, producing a tissue from somewhere in his jacket, and wiped my hand clean. Surprised, I nearly made a crack about moms and spit, but before I could, he had leaned well into my personal space and was cleaning off my cheek. His fingers were gentle and under their touch I found that I couldn't move. When he moved away, I found myself wishing that the ladies had kissed me more- anything to keep the warmth of his skin near mine for a little while longer.
"Thanks," I managed and he smiled.
"You're welcome," he said and stepped back. "Should we stop and get some ice for the bruises?"
