Chapter 34
“You're going to be a really good boy and listen to everything Heero asks of you. This is an important round, Shini and I know you will give it your best for your master.” Duo slipped the gray another carrot slice, Shini crunching it up eagerly. He was enjoying the special attention the nice human was giving him.Spotting Heero's familiar form approaching through the small crowd in the collecting ring, Duo smiled once his lover was within a few feet. “I take it the jump off course hasn't changed much since you last did it on Lunar?” he asked with a cheeky grin.“Other than the heights and widths increasing, no it hasn't,” Heero replied with a roll of his eyes.“Shini's in fine form. He's going to win this for you, Heero.”“I think there's a few others who might disagree with you, Duo; Treize for one.”Hearing his name in the conversation, Treize couldn't help but look across to the pair.Completely oblivious to Treize listening in, Duo continued with his light banter. “Nah, I wouldn't worry about that old man, Shini's gonna cream them all, just you wait and see.”“Old man?”Duo froze with the words that came from somewhere over his right shoulder. Swallowing nervously, he plastered a grin to his face and slowly turned around. “Ah, Treize.”Heero, June, Carl and Frank all watched in silent amusement to see how the braided vet would get himself out of this one.“Old man?” Treize repeated with a quirk of an elegant eyebrow.Duo scratched at the back of his neck as his cheeks blushed red. “Yeah, well, you are older than Heero and as you get older so you tend to slow down, you know, lose that edge... I really should shut up now before I dig myself any deeper, shouldn't I?”“It might be an idea,” Treize replied with a smirk. “I'll show you just how old I am and how much of an edge I've lost when I go out there and beat the lot of them.”“Yeah, good luck for your round. I think I'd better check Shini's gear.” Duo ducked around the other side of the gray, the others had a hard time holding their laughter.The jump off commenced, the first rider into the arena committing the same mistake as many others in the lower grades and not getting his horse to move across far enough or fast enough to clear jump twelve. They came out with four faults and a time of 40:21. Treize was next to go.Having saluted the judge, Treize collected Romeo together and rode for the start flags. “Old man am I?” he muttered to himself. “I'll show them all just how good an old man can be.” Treize wasn't offended by the words, after all, he was only six years older than Duo. Actually, he found it all quite amusing.Romeo passed through the start and increased his speed a touch as the first jump came into view. They cleared it easily, Treize giving the stallion a touch more rein and encouraging the bay to lengthen out but still retain impulsion.Jump two was also cleared and once Romeo was back on mother earth, Treize sat deep and brought the bay to an almost stop and spun him on his haunches to pass on the inside of jump three and not between it and jump nine as everyone else had done so far.“Sneaky bastard,” Heero stated with a grin as he watched his former boss make the sharp turn.“Now you can see why he is such a successful Olympic rider,” Frank said from where he stood watching.”Heero and Shini are just as good, if not better,” Duo couldn't help but say in defense of his lover and the gray.“Then that will make it a really exciting jump off,” Frank replied, his eyes never leaving the ring.“I will certainly be a close one,” Heero said.Keeping an eye on the double and an eye on where he was riding, Treize waited until he felt Romeo had traveled enough distance to make a turn and come into Part A without losing impulsion or time. The bay swung around and lined up the first element of the double. The bay body shot into the air and cleared the first element with ease. Landing, Treize applied the seat and leg, driving his horse together and over the second element. Romeo also cleared part B with inches to spare, immediately driving his hocks under his body when he felt his master's seat and leg asking him to.“Nice,” June commented.Keeping a tight hold on the bay, Treize turned on the inside of jump five and did his best to bring Romeo into jump six on the correct stride.Duo's pager chose that moment to buzz. Reaching for the small contraption, he glanced briefly at it. Heero also heard the buzz of the pager and sighed softly. That could only mean one thing: a call out for Duo. Heero had hoped the pager would stay silent and allow his lover to enjoy the show with him. Having gone this long without interruption, Heero had all but forgotten that Duo was on call.Giving his lover an apologetic look, Duo moved away from the group to call his paging service and find out what the details were.Romeo met jump six perfectly, soaring into the air and showing a clean pair of heels over the jump. Treize shifted his weight and applied his leg, asking the bay to leg yield across to the right. Romeo listened and whilst still moving forward, he also moved right.Duo frowned when the pager service gave him the details of the emergency. Grabbing his pen from his pocket, he scribbled down the number he was given onto the back of his hand as he didn't have any paper with him. After thanking the pager service person, he disconnected the call and looked across to where Heero was splitting his attention between Treize and Duo. Quickly, Duo punched the numbers into his cell and waited for the call to connect.“Hello?”“This is Doctor Maxwell, my pager service said you have an emergency?”“Duo? It's Stefan.”“Stefan?” Duo felt the growl rising in his throat.Before Duo could say anything further, Stefan continued, “I'm sorry to page you at the show, but Nataku needs your care.” Stefan went on to explain what had happened with the mare galloping around the paddock and getting stuck under the gate. He told Duo what he'd done thus far to treat her and that he thought she would need stitches.“I see,” Duo replied, his mouth in a grim line. It seemed he was stuck. On one hand he didn't want to leave the show and Heero, especially when his lover was about to compete in his jump off, but he couldn't leave Nataku to wait for treatment either. All thoughts of Stefan and the man's advances towards him had fled his mind when Stefan had filled him in on the mare's injuries, especially as Stefan's voice held genuine concern for the mare.“Can you get her up to the surgery stables? It will be easier for me to treat her there.”“Sure. I'll start moving her up there now. Do you want me to do anything with her whilst waiting for you?”Duo thought for a moment. “If you could put a bandage over the wound it would help to slow any bleeding and protect the wound until I can treat it.”“No problem.”“I'll be back at the surgery stables as soon as I can.”“Thank you. I am really sorry to have called you away from the show, Duo.”“It's fine,” Duo replied and cut the call before Stefan could say anything further. Slipping the cell back into his pocket, Duo thought how best to break the news to Heero; and Wufei would need to be informed too as it was his horse that was in trouble.Heero noted the look on Duo's face as the vet rejoined them and he leaned over Shini's shoulder to speak in a quiet tone with his partner. “What is it?”Knowing he couldn't keep anything from his lover, Duo moved close to Shini's shoulder to speak with Heero.Romeo picked his take off point and dug deep with his hind legs. Pushing off the ground, the stallion tucked his front legs tight against his body. Treize went forward with his horse, following the movement and assisting the bay in any way he could. Once Romeo's front feet were reaching for the landing, Treize began to drop his weight back into the saddle and pick up the contact with the stallion's mouth. A grunt from Romeo and Treize urged him forward into a gallop. Those long legs ate up the ground and Romeo flashed between the finish flags to the sounds of cheers and applause.“Clear round for Treize Khushrenada riding Romefeller in a time of 36:04!”“What is it, Duo?” Heero repeated amid the din of cheers for Treize and Romeo.“I've got an emergency.”Heero gave him a look that clearly said he wanted further details.Duo sighed. “The pager service just told me it was a horse that had gotten caught in a fence and required stitching. The number is Stefan's, the horse is Nataku.”It took a moment for the words to sink into Heero's mind. “I'm coming with you.”“No, Heero. You stay here and finish your jump off.”“But, Duo, this is Stefan,” Heero growled. “You don't trust him and I don’t trust him and there's no way I'm letting you go home by yourself to treat Nataku.”“Heero, I appreciate the concern and believe me when I say I don't want to be alone with that guy any more than you want me to be alone with him, but I have to treat the horse. We need to contact Wufei and let him know his horse is injured; no doubt he will want to be there while I treat her too. I'll also give Zechs or Hilde a call and get one of them to come and help me. That way I won't be alone with him.” Duo did his best to offer a smile of reassurance. His gut was twisting itself into knots at the thought of Stefan, but he had to move quickly as there was an injured animal at stake here too.Heero still wasn't happy, but he could see Duo's point of view and felt a little more comforted knowing his partner wouldn't be by himself with Stefan. “Okay. I'll do my jump off and once I'm finished I'm loading up the horses and coming back to help you. I don’t want that guy around you any longer than necessary.”Duo rested a hand upon Heero's knee and gave it a gentle squeeze. “I love how protective you are, Heero. I'll be fine so don't worry. Good luck in the jump off, show them all just how good you both are.”With a resigned nod of his head, Heero watched his partner leave. Once Duo had gone, Heero fixed his attention back to the arena and immediately noticed that Treize, June, Frank and Carl were all giving him curious looks. With a sigh he explained about Duo's call out and congratulated Treize on his round.* * *Striding across the show grounds, Duo made his way back to his car. As he walked he pulled his cell again from his pocket and called Wufei's number first. The Chinese man picked up after a few rings and Duo let the man know of Nataku's mishap, explaining he was on his way back home now to treat the horse and only had the sketchy details from Stefan.Wufei was understandably upset, but trusted Duo to do what was necessary for the mare and gave the vet permission to go ahead and treat her regardless of the cost. Unfortunately, Wufei and Meiran were currently visiting Meiran's parents and although Wufei said they would leave immediately and come directly to the surgery stables, it would still be at least two hours before they could get there – and that was if the traffic was playing nice.Knowing there wasn't anything he could do about that, Duo thanked the man and hung up. With the cell still in his hand, Duo called Zechs next, hoping the other vet would be able to join him and assist in treating Nataku. Duo didn't think he would need much in the way of assistance for the horse, but he didn't want to be alone with Stefan either.“Merquise.”“Zechs, it's Duo...” Duo went on to explain about the mare and the reason for his call, omitting the bit about Stefan and his unwillingness to be alone with the other man. No one other than Heero knew of Duo's concerns regarding Stefan and although their close friends knew of their relationship, neither man wanted it to become general knowledge. They had already suffered through that once with Relena and Duo certainly had no desire to repeat a performance like that again any time soon.“Of course I'll come and help you if you need me, Duo, problem is, I'm at this stud farm with Relena and it will take me about three hours to get back. Can the horse wait that long?”Duo sighed. He'd forgotten that Treize had said Zechs was out with Relena. “Look, I'll see if I can get Hilde to come help. If not and I still need you, I'll call you back.”“You sure, Duo?”“Yeah. Thanks, Zechs.”“No problem.”Disconnecting the call, Duo frowned and shook his head. Having reached his car, he unlocked it and got in, putting in a call to Hilde's phone as he buckled up.The call connected but went directly to Hilde's message bank. Duo thumped his head against the steering wheel. He'd completely forgotten that Hilde and Catherine were going out to the movies. No wonder the call went to her message bank, Hilde would have her phone turned off.“Maxwell, you're a grown man for crying out loud. Surely you can handle Stefan if he tries anything on,” he growled to himself. “Stop being a wuss, go treat this horse and if Stefan puts one foot out of line, just deck the asshole.” Feeling a little better after his 'pep' talk, Duo started the car and headed for the surgery stables and his patient.* * *Having put his cell phone back in his pocket, Stefan walked back into the stable block where Nataku stood waiting. He went into the tack room and rummaged around for a moment before emerging with a bandage and some gauze.Talking softly to Nataku, Stefan did his best to dry the fetlock off with the towel he'd also thought to bring with him and check the wound. It had started to bleed again so Stefan placed the gauze over it and bandaged the joint firmly. He didn’t want to bandage it too tightly and cause further damage, but he couldn't have it too loose either.Satisfied he'd done what he could for now, Stefan undid the lead rope and began to lead the mare back out of the stable block and along the raceway between the paddocks. It was the quickest way to get to Duo's part of the property. Zero and Angel called out as he passed their paddocks, Nataku answering with a low whinny of her own.Zero came up to the fence and walked along it as far as he could, giving small grunts and nickers to the mare to reassure her all would be well. He didn't know what was wrong but could sense she was hurt. Knowing the direction the pair were heading in led to the other nice human's stables, Zero had every confidence that the mare would be well looked after.Reaching the end of the raceway, Stefan led the mare into the back of the stable block and opened up the crush. Although Duo hadn't said to put Nataku in the crush he gathered that would be where the vet would need her in order to treat her properly. With the mare secure in the crush, there wasn't anything more Stefan could do other than wait for Duo to arrive.* * *The rider after Treize did a very nice round, keeping their horse balanced and attentive throughout. They set a good pace which increased a touch as their round progressed and managed to clear everything. With baited breath, the group in the collecting ring waited for the announcement of the time.“Clear round for Tim Watson riding Apache in a time of 38:19 seconds.”Treize heaved a sigh of relief, he was still in first place. Heero was also relieved that Treize was still leading. If Heero didn’t win the event, the next best thing was to have his good friend win it. With thoughts of Duo, Nataku and Stefan in the back of his mind, Heero rode into the ring for his turn in the jump off.Shinigami felt full of life and energy, his gray ears were pricked as he trotted calmly towards the judge for his master to salute. The bell went and Shini found himself passing between the start flags and facing the first jump.The niggling feeling of Duo's safety around Stefan continued to haunt Heero's mind regardless of how much he tried to push it away. He really didn't need the distraction whilst trying to compete, but knew he'd have to cope with it. Best thing to do was to ride this jump off as well as he could, the sooner he finished, the sooner he could be on his way home to Duo.The gray stallion cleared the first jump easily and approached the second. He was a little puzzled with his master's attention this time, or rather, lack of. Seemed his master was somewhat distracted. His master wasn't riding as well as he usually did or with a fierce determination as he had in the past. Shini didn't let it bother him, just as long as the jumps kept coming he had enough education and ability to jump for the both of them.The second element disappeared beneath them and Heero pulled himself together enough to imitate what Treize had done in his round, bring Shini almost to a halt and spin him around on the inside of jump three.Back in the collecting ring, Treize watched Heero's sudden turn with a smile on his face. He'd known Heero would attempt the same maneuver and was pleased to see his former pupil pull it off. Carl and June were also watching with their hearts in their mouths. Frank couldn't tear his eyes away, this was the first time he'd actually seen Heero compete on Shinigami for real. Yes, he'd seen the Olympic coverage, but to actually watch in person was simply awesome in Frank's opinion. It made the up and coming rider even more determined he would make the grade with Jester.Having spun tightly, Shini again turned to spot the first element of the double ahead of him. Lengthening out his stride he approached the jump with confidence, hind legs pushing the body from the ground and over the jump. Heero sat deep upon landing and rode the gray forward into the second element. Once more the gray flew into the air and cleared the jump with ease.With thoughts of Duo and Stefan still in the back of his mind, Heero sat deep again and shortened Shini up, driving the hind legs right underneath the stallion's body and building the impulsion as he also asked for a turn on the inside of jump five. It wouldn't leave a lot of room before jump six was upon them, but Heero trusted Shini to get them over it.The gray responded, lining up the hedge and picking his takeoff point. Front legs rose into the air, powerful haunches straining to push the bulk of horse and rider over the jump. Heero followed the movement with his hands, rising up out of his saddle and allowing Shini as much freedom as he could to clear the jump.“Now comes the tricky part,” Heero muttered once they were safely back on the turf again. Jump twelve sat across to their right, Heero's legs, seat and hands all coming into play and asking Shini to move across to the right. The stallion lowered his nose and listened to the instructions he was getting from his master and obeyed.The gray body shifted right, still moving forward at the same time. The oxer stood before them and a clear round, Heero focusing all his attention on the final jump. Back in the collecting ring the others were all holding their breath, eyes never leaving the pair in the arena.Shini grunted loudly as he shoved off the ground for the final time, his body reached for the width of the oxer, height no problem to the gray at all. They made a perfect arc over the jump, forelegs unfurling and taking the brunt of the landing, hind legs touching down a split second later. Heero applied his leg and rode the gray forward, aiming for the finish flags and hoping for a good time.The clock stopped, the crowd all cheered and Heero did his best to bring an exuberant stallion back to hand. With Shini now in a steady canter, Heero looked for the exit and rode towards it.“Clear round for Heero Yuy riding Shinigami in a time of 36:06 seconds!” the commentator announced. “Ladies and gentlemen, that concludes the open A Grade jumping competition, I will have the final results for you all in just a moment.”Covering the gray neck in pats, Heero rode out of the arena and into the congratulations of his friends. Shini began to look around for the nice human that always had those delicious orange treats waiting for him. He'd been a good boy and knew he'd be rewarded. Unfortunately, the nice human wasn't anywhere to be found. Shini found himself with another human offering him treats.June realized what Shini was looking for and knowing how Duo usually showered the gray with carrots and pats whenever he came out of the ring she could see he would be disappointed as Duo wasn't there with those treats. Stepping up to the gray, June decided she'd fill in for Duo and fished in her pocket for some carrots from earlier. She offered them to the gray and petted his neck, telling him what a good boy he'd been.The stallion was a little confused at first, but when the carrots appeared under his nose he decided not to worry about it and politely took the offered treats.“Well done, Heero,” Treize and the others congratulated. Heero nodded in acceptance.“It's going to be very close,” Carl said, waiting for the announcement to be made.Heero was still distracted and only wanted to get back home to the stables and make sure that Duo and Nataku were okay. “I hope they give out the results soon,” he muttered, “I need to get going.”“I'm sure they will be out in a moment, Heero,” June soothed. “Don't worry, Nataku will be fine.” Thinking that Heero was worried over the mare, June did her best to reassure the rider.“June's right,” Treize said. “Nataku will be perfectly okay with Duo treating her.”Heero felt grateful for his friends' concern regarding Nataku. He had no doubt she would be okay with Duo treating her; and whilst he was worried about the mare and what injuries she had sustained, he was more worried about Duo being with Stefan. Unfortunately he couldn't let the real reason for his agitation be known. He could just hope that Wufei and Zechs would arrive at the surgery around the same time as Duo.“The results of the Open A Grade jumping competition are as follows. In first place, clear with a time of 36:04, Treize Khushrenada riding Romefeller. In second place, also clear and in a time of 36:06, Heero Yuy riding Shinigami. In third place, clear in a time of 38:19, Tim Watson riding Apache...”“Shit! That was close,” Frank said and shook Heero's hand.“Congratulations,” chorused June and Carl, both clearly just as excited for Heero as if they'd won themselves.“Thanks,” Heero replied and once he had his hand back he prepared himself and his horse to enter the arena behind Treize to collect their rosette and winnings.“Great round, Treize,” Heero said as they rode back into the arena.“I thought you had me beat for a moment there,” Treize replied. “It was damn close!”“Hai, it was,” Heero grinned. “You only beat me by .02 of a second.”“Ah, but at the end of the day, this old man still beat you,” Treize teased.“That you did,” Heero conceded.They brought their horses to a halt and waited for the judge and sponsor to come forward and present them with their rosettes and prize money. Once that was done, Treize led them in a lap of honor around the arena, the crowd all cheering and applauding. Once they were back out in the collecting ring, Heero bid Treize farewell, citing his need to get back to the stables and Nataku as quickly as possible.June and Carl followed Heero to the goose-neck and gave him a hand to unsaddle and get Shini ready for the trip home. Frank bid them all a safe trip and said he would see them back at the stables, disappearing to get Jester ready for his trip home.June and Carl had already packed away any gear that wasn't needed and had gotten Orion and Lunar ready for travel before Shini had jumped, so there wasn't much at all to do there, something Heero was grateful for. With the three of them working on Shinigami, the gray found himself unsaddled, brushed down and rugged ready to travel in record time.With all the gear stowed away safely, Heero dropped the ramp and Carl led Lunar into the goose-neck. Orion followed and Shini went in last. Once the ramp was secure, Carl and June left to get their own cars and meet Heero back at the stables. Heero climbed into the cab and started the engine. He hoped the traffic would be light and he could get back to the stables with minimal fuss. Letting out the clutch, Heero rolled the goose-neck across the paddock to the exit and road to home.* * *On the drive back to the surgery, Duo ran the information he had on Nataku though his mind. Stefan had said she'd cut her leg around the fetlock and he thought it would require stitching. Given what he knew of the mare's accident and being trapped under the gate, Duo also thought there would be a good chance she could have strained the joint in her efforts to get free.Then there were the other, minor cuts to be treated as well.With the thoughts still whirling around, Duo pulled off the main road and along the quieter street that led to he surgery. The familiar driveway came into sight, Duo indicating and turning down it. Passing the surgery and car park, he continued down and swung Camel into the larger parking area by the stables. Cutting the engine he glanced around, his heart plummeting when he noticed that Wufei hadn't arrived as yet.Swallowing curses, Duo got out of the car, locked it and began to walk towards the stables. He glanced up as a figure stepped out to greet him.“I've put her inside in the crush for you,” Stefan said when Duo was close enough to hear him.“Thank you,” Duo replied and walked past the man and into the stables. “What exactly happened?” Duo kept his tone short and his speech direct to the point, his air one of complete professionalism. Much to Duo's surprise, Stefan responded in a similar manner, keeping his tone and actions to that of purely business.Stefan patiently explained exactly what he'd seen when walking back from putting Comet out in the paddock. He described how Nataku had slipped over and managed to crash into the gate and fence. How her fetlock had been caught under the gate and the mare's scrambling to free herself. He also explained what he'd done to treat the injury so far.Whilst Stefan was explaining everything, Duo was carefully removing the bandage from the mare's joint. His eyes had already scanned over the rest of the bay and noted the scrapes and lacerations that dotted the hide here and there. None were bad enough to warrant immediate attention so Duo pushed them to one side in his mind for now.The leg though was another matter. Duo could see the swelling already creeping up the cannon bone.Having removed the bandage and gauze, Duo got his first look at the wound. Gentle, skilled fingers probed around, assessing the damage. Duo was relieved to find it was a clean cut, deep enough that it would require about five or so stitches, but not deep enough to have caused any damage to the joint itself. Nataku would be out of work for around three weeks, Duo estimated; not too bad overall.With a slightly relieved sigh, Duo sat back on his heels for a moment.“Will she be okay?” Stefan's voice broke into Duo's thoughts.“Yes, she will. It will need a few stitches to the wound itself, but as far as I can tell the joint has been spared any damage in that respect.” Raising himself up a little, Duo grasped the mare's cannon bone and raised her hoof. Carefully he manipulated the fetlock joint, checking the amount of movement and rotation Nataku had in it before lowering the hoof back down. Wiping his hands on his jeans, Duo kept his eyes on the horse as he spoke. “Joint appears to be bruised and possibly strained, nothing more which is a relief.”Stefan heaved out a sigh. “That's good. For a moment there I thought she may have done some serious damage to herself.”“She's a very lucky girl,” Duo agreed. “It could have been far worse and I’m sure that Wufei and Heero will be thanking you themselves for all you've done for her once they get here.”“It's okay, I don't need any thanks,” Stefan said.“Right. I'll get started with her then.” Duo turned and approached the drug room to unlock it and get out what he would need to stitch Nataku up.“Would you like a hand?” Stefan asked.“Thanks, but I should be fine,” Duo replied and disappeared into the drug room. He really didn't want Stefan hanging around, but there really wasn't much else he could do short of telling the man to simply piss off. And given how Stefan had cared for Nataku so far and did seem genuinely interested in the horse's well being, Duo couldn't do that either. Seemed like he was stuck with him for now. A glance at the clock told him that both Heero and Wufei shouldn't be too far away and that gave him a small measure of comfort.When Duo stepped back out with the things he needed, Stefan was standing by Nataku's head and talking softly to the mare. The bay was relaxed so Duo didn't say anything, if Stefan wanted to remain by the horse's head and talk to her then that was okay with him. At least it kept her calm so Duo could get to work.The cut was soon infiltrated with local anesthetic, Duo cleaning the wound out a little more with Betadine while waiting for the anesthetic to completely numb the area. Nataku never moved, standing with her head resting almost on the bars of the crush while Stefan continued to talk softly to her. Picking up a needle, Duo began the job of stitching the edges of the wound together.It took several minutes for Duo to complete the task, but once he was done a neat row of six stitches held the wound closed.Stefan gave a low whistle when he saw the finished result. “Very neat, I don't think it will leave a scar,” he said in admiration.Duo didn't bother to answer, he picked up the fresh gauze and after dusting the area with penicillin powder, he applied the gauze and then bandaged the site firmly. Straightening up, he took a moment to check all was well. “That's the leg taken care of, now to fix up the other numerous cuts and scrapes.” Picking up the used utensils, Duo carried them through to the drug dispensary intending to put the needles to soak and the trash in the bin before fetching fresh supplies to treat the rest of Nataku's injuries.Stefan watched the vet disappear back inside the drug room. His eyes narrowed and with his mind made up, Stefan followed Duo.Hearing footsteps behind him, Duo began to turn around just as Stefan entered the small drug room and closed the door behind him. “You can't come in- hmph...”The rest of Duo's words were cut off as Stefan grabbed hold of him and crushed their mouths together.~ * ~tbc...While AFF and its agents attempt to remove all illegal works from the site as quickly and thoroughly as possible, there is always the possibility that some submissions may be overlooked or dismissed in error.
