Halloween Drabble 5
Heero took another peek at the man who had commandeered his kitchen. "You do realize that it's just us tonight right?"
Duo nodded. He was mixing something in a bowl, frowning in concentration.
"And you do remember what I said about the kids in this building? The super doesn't let them trick or treat here."
Duo nodded again. "Yeah, that's kind of a sucky thing to do." He began dropping spoonfuls of something gooey on a waxed paper covered plate.
"Well, it's not like we can leave a porchlight on. Besides, one of the parents is throwing a party for them instead."
"That sounds like fun." Duo looked up and grinned. "Wanna crash it?"
Heero shook his head. "Uh, no. Have you met some of the kids in this building? I think at least half of the smaller ones don't know how to use a tissue."
Duo grinned. "Good point. Is the movie ready to go?"
"Yes." Heero answered, "and the other ones are stacked up next to the player. We aren't watching them all tonight are we?"
Duo laughed. "Heero, I promised you a genuine all-night horror movie fest for Halloween. The all night part means we're going to be up all night. No sleeping allowed."
"Is that why you insisted on all the junk food? To keep us awake?"
Duo handed him the plate of sticky candy. "Pretty much. Plus Halloween is a candy holiday. It's part of our celebration. Go sit down and stop asking questions. I promise, you'll enjoy this. Halloween is fun."
Hours later, sprawled out on the couch, feeling slightly sick from the amount of junk he'd eaten despite his best intentions, his sides hurting from laughing too much at Duo's commentary on the movies, Heero had to admit that Duo was right. Halloween was fun.
Though he doubted that it would've been as much fun without the man snoring on the other end of the couch.
