Disclaimer: I own nothing. Do you have to rub it in?

A/N: I know, I'm supposed to be working on my other story, but this just wanted to be written. I'm a bad author. (slaps hand) Ouch. For those of you who've never read my other story, ignore me and please enjoy! Oh, and this story idea was inspired by PeachBerry's pirate costume!

Warnings: Hyper!Duo, excessive use of exclamation marks, and all-around silliness.

“Heeeee-chaaaaan!” Duo’s voice echoed through the halls of the safe house the pilots were resting in. It was a nice-sized mansion, courtesy of Quatre, and Duo was having a blast running through the hallways. He stopped outside Heero’s door and knocked loudly.

“Duo. It’s six in the morning. What are you doing?” Heero said with a yawn, sounding annoyed.

Duo poked him in the nose, causing Heero to blink sleepily at him. “It’s Halloween! How am I supposed to sleep?”

“Halloween?”

Duo gasped. “Hee-chan, don’t tell me-“

“My name is not Hee-chan.”

Duo paused, and said, hesitantly, “Hee-kun?”

With a sigh, Heero leaned his head against the doorway. “What, in ten words or less, do you want?”

Duo silently counted on his fingers before smiling brightly and saying, “For everyone to dress up and have a Halloween party!”

The door slammed shut.

“Aw, Hee-kun, don’t be like that. Besides, I stole all your spandex and tank tops last night and replaced them with your Halloween costume, so it’s not really like you have a choice.” He heard rustling in the room as Heero confirmed that this was true. The door opened once more to reveal an angry Japanese pilot.

“Omae o korosu.” (1)

“That’s the spirit, Hee-kun!” Duo said as he bounced away to wake the others.

“Does anyone know what’s going on?” asked Quatre sleepily from his seat at the breakfast table.

“Duo said something about a Halloween party,” stated Trowa calmly from the seat across from him. Wufei nodded in agreement.

“Morning!” said Duo happily as he bounced into the room. “Everyone as excited as I am?”

“Is that even possible?” said Quatre, cutely tilting his head to the side. Wufei snorted.

“Ohayo.” Everyone looked up as Heero walked into the room. The room went silent in shock as they all took in his outfit.

He was fully decked out in a cowboy outfit, complete with ten-gallon hat, long-sleeved plaid shirt, leather vest, blue jeans, and boots. He started to walk towards his chair, but stopped as realized something…

“Why the hell am I the only one dressed up?” he said, looking a little panicky. Wufei fell out of his chair laughing, while Quatre and Trowa both chose to discreetly snicker. Duo casually threw an arm around his shoulders.

“’Cause Quatre and Trowa got up willingly and Wufei wakes up earlier than me.”

Heero glared threateningly at him, before whirling around and heading for the door.

“Wait! They’re still going to dress up, right guys?” Duo looked pleadingly at them.

“It sounds like fun!” said Quatre, nudging Trowa, who shrugged indifferently. Wufei, however, seemed less than thrilled with the idea.

“I have no intention of making a fool of myself.”

“Well, too bad, because I knew you would be difficult and took all your clothes after you had already woken up! Now you have nothing else to wear but your costume!” Duo put his hands on his hips and grinned triumphantly.

“And what, exactly, is wrong with the clothes I am currently wearing?”

“Uh… hold that thought.” Duo ran out of the room, leaving the others to blink at each other. Quatre giggled again as he looked at Heero, but stopped quickly when he glared at him.

“HA!”

Everyone winced as Duo dumped what looked like orange juice on Wufei.

“MAXWELL!” Wufei yelled as he lunged at him. Duo dodged him easily and said with a laugh, “Costume’s in your room, ‘Fei!”

Wufei stormed huffily upstairs. “That was a little cruel, Duo,” said Quatre gently, although he was fighting the urge to laugh.

“All in the spirit of Halloween, Cat! Which reminds me, you two need to dress up too. But, for being so cooperative, I’ll allow you to chose your costumes.”

“Where did you find these, anyway?” said Quatre as he and Trowa dug through a chest of clothing, Heero still scowling at them from his spot at the table.

“In your attic! There’s tons of interesting stuff up there.”

“Maxwell, I’m going to kill you.”

They all looked up as Wufei calmly walked into the room and sat next to Heero. No one laughed, because he looked, well… so darn pretty.

Duo had chosen a pink kimono for him, with all the accessories to match (of course). Wufei’s hair was down and still a little wet from his quick shower. His already somewhat feminine appearance was merely heightened by the cute outfit.

“I knew that pink was your color, ‘Fei!”

Wufei yelled something in Chinese as he chucked his shoe at Duo’s head. They were distracted when Quatre suddenly gasped happily and scurried away with a mass of pink in his arms.

“What happened?” said Heero, finally deciding that it wouldn’t be worth it to be silent all day.

“He found a costume,” said Trowa, an uncharacteristically startled look on his face. He stood up, his arms also full of clothing, and headed towards his own room.

Which left Duo alone with an angry Wufei and an annoyed Heero.

“C’mon you guys, you both look totally adorable.” Heero blushed just the teensiest bit, but Wufei continued to glare.

“Um… I think I’ll go change now.” He scurried away.

“Ta-daa!” Quatre popped back into the room a few moments later, hands stretched up high. Trowa walked into the room from another doorway, and immediately backed out, thinking, so cute…

Quatre, for some reason, had decided to be a pink bunny for Halloween. (2) His fluffy, full body suit was a little big on him, making the ears flop in front of his face instead of standing up straight, like they were supposed to.

Quatre blinked as he realized that Wufei and Heero were gaping at him. “Where did everyone else go?”

Trowa, having recovered, walked into the room. He was a monkey. As soon as Quatre saw him, his eyes got all sparkly and he ran over to him, saying, “Trowa! You look so good! And we’re both furry animals! Coincidence, huh?”

“Yeah…” said Trowa, hiding his blush.

“I’m back!” said Duo. He popped into the kitchen waving a sword that matched his pirate costume, complete with even an eye patch. He stopped, stared at Trowa and Quatre, and spun in a circle, saying, “You two are so awesome!”

“So, now that we’re all dressed up, let’s… um…”

“What are we going to do?” asked Quatre.

“Well, now that I think about it, I have no idea. It’s not like we can go trick-or-treating, being the Gundam pilots and all…” Duo sighed, his disappointment evident.

Heero stood up and took his hand, trying to be as casual as possible. Duo blushed and let himself be led into the next room. “We’ll just have to watch scary movies, then,” said Heero, smiling gently. Duo’s eyes lit up.

“Hey! That’s a great idea, Hee-kun!” Heero winced, but didn’t say anything. It looked like the new nickname was going to stick.

“I’ll make some popcorn,” said Quatre, heading to the kitchen. Trowa followed him silently. Wufei went with Duo and Heero to choose some movies.

---

Midnight found them still watching the end of Frankenstein, Duo’s movie pick. Quatre and Trowa shared a chair while Duo and Heero sat together on the couch and Wufei sat on the floor. Duo was nodding off on Heero’s shoulder.

“Thanks, Heero, for saving Halloween for me,” he murmured quietly.

“No problem. And it’s Hee-kun, remember?”

Duo smiled and said, “Hee-kun…” before drifting off to sleep.

(1) Um, I hope this is spelled correctly... it means, "I'm going to kill you" in Japanese. I think.

(2) I couldn't resist.

Sorry for the random ending. I'm not normally one to write humorous stories, so I didn't really know what I was doing... I'll update Brought Into Focus soon, I swear!
