Halloween Drabble 3
Duo walked into the safe house kitchen and stopped dead in his tracks.
"Quatre," he said to the blond by the sink. "Um, did you dye your hair? It's brown- and shiny..."
"I know it is, and no, I didn't."
"Ah. Did you also know that you have an apple in your hair?"
"I know that too." Quatre growled.
Duo backed up a step just in case.
"Um... why?"
"I was trying to make caramel apples and my hand slipped, and..." Quatre gestured implying that either the pan had slipped and doused him in caramel, or that a demon had broken loose in their kitchen, Duo wasn't sure.
"Why?" He asked.
"Why did my hand slip?" Quatre turned around and leveled a death glare at the pilot behind him.
"No- why caramel apples?"
"Because it's Halloween. It's a tradition!" Quatre snapped. "My family always made them on Halloween."
"Ah. And you helped?"
"I watched." Quatre admitted and turned back to the sink with a sigh.
"You know," Duo said, easing back another step. "I think I'm going to run down to the store and just buy some. I know it's not very traditional, but at least this way you won't get stuck to your gundam." Despite the kind offer, the hint of mirth in his voice was too much for Quatre.
Quatre turned around, murder in his eyes and the pan of caramel in his hands.
Duo fled.
Quatre took a deep breath and turned back to the sink.
Great. Now the pan was stuck to him too.
