Main portion goes here.
Duo paced back and forth in the living room, his brows knit in contemplative concentration before sighing and surrendering to the pull of the couches. She so wasn't going to go with him. No chance. Hell, he didn't even know why he wanted to go. Peer pressure maybe? Fun? Free food? Last one. That's it.. Go with that one.
Where was she anyway?
The sound of the doorknob turning was heard then the door opened, revealing Mel coming in from sleeping outside in the hammock. Its pull had been too great to resist and she enjoyed sleeping out under the stars. "You digging a hole in the rug for a reason?" She asked Duo, giving him a small smirk as she slipped the holster off her slender shoulders.
Duo shook his head, scrunching his face in a sheepish, yet charming smirk. Heh, "Just was.. ah. thinkin is all." the boy smiled, sitting on the edge of his couch. "Sleep well? You kinda got a.. twig.. in your.." he grinned, gesturing to her hair.
Mel gave a self-conscious laugh, and lifted her hand, searching for the twig. She found it and plucked it out, tossing it over her shoulder. "Yeah. Was nice. No one to push me, though. Sucked. And you?" Mel asked before she headed into their room to slipping the scythe and holster under her bed then reemerged, taking her hair out of the ponytail she had it in.
"Found out Quatre is trying to sophisticate us behind our back.. Figured we might humor him this one time.." Duo said with a laugh.
Mel tilted her head to the side, arching an eyebrow. "How do you mean?" She asked, walking over and jumping over him to lounge on the couch beside him.
"He got you a dress for your birthday." Duo replied, reaching his arm to rest behind her. "A elegant dress."
Mel looked at him then whacked him in the chest. "Way to ruin the surprise, Jack." She scoffed, rolling her eyes.
"Sorry." Duo replied, flinching at the hit. "I only told you cos I wanted to know if you wanted to use it."
Mel frowned a little, tilting her head to the side. "Can't exactly go paroling in a dress," She said, shaking her head. "Where else would I wear it?"
"Party." Duo replied. "You know, one of those fancy parties were we act like we belong, make fun of the rich types behind their backs and eat the food?"
"Ohhh, like the shindigs in the Uppers I grabbed during," Mel nodded several times. "And why would I go?" She asked, "Seems like it'd be full-a snoots that "Mel, the only snoot I know is Tony and he wants to crash. He's probably the richest guy besides Quatre I know." Duo replied, but then counted on his fingers. Right, Relena too..
"Cos we can make it fun?"
Tony was coming? Hmm. Might be a laugh. Mel shrugged, rolling those blue eyes of hers. "If I don't like it after ten minutes, I'm out." She said, pointing to him in warning.
"Fair enough." Duo replied. He didn't imagine he could tolerate it for that long anyway.
Mel nodded then stood. "I'mma shower," She said, kissing the top of his head before she started for the bathroom.
Duo smiled at the girl and watched her saunter on into the bathroom. "Go for it."
