Halloween Drabble 7
Heero looked at Duo in surprise. "You want to go do what?"
"I want to go trick or treating," Duo repeated patiently. "And I want you to go with me."
"Aren't we kinda old to go trick or treating?" Heero asked. "I mean, not that I've ever been, but I'm pretty sure that we are- it's for little kids right?"
Duo shrugged. "So what if we are? Teenagers go. Besides, if we're in a costume who's gonna know how old we are?" He lifted up two white sheets and waved them at Heero. "See? They won't be able to tell! We'll have a great time, I promise!"
"A great time?" Heero lifted an eyebrow. "Duo, we're going to be going around begging for candy dressed in a sheet with a bunch of little kids. That sounds like fun to you?"
Duo's face fell a bit. "Well, yeah. Does this mean you don't want to go?"
Heero studied his partner for a moment. "Have you ever been?"
Duo shook his head. "No. The neighborhoods I lived in it wasn't exactly safe to go around and knock on people's doors, y'know?"
Heero sighed and got to his feet. He took the sheet out of Duo's hands. "Do you have a pillowcase too?"
Duo blinked. "For what?"
"To collect the candy in- we need to carry it in something right?"
Duo's face lit up with a smile. "Does this mean you're going with me?"
"Yes."
"Are you sure?" Duo questioned. "I don't want to force you..."
Heero shook his head. "You want to go, right? And you want me to go with you?"
"Well, yes. But I want you to have a good time too."
"Duo, I'll be with you. I'm sure that alone will ensure a good time for me."
Duo's smile turned incandescent.
