A couple points: two male guppies will harass each other unless there's a female in there. If you put in only one female, the males will wear her out. How about one male and two females, or two males and three females? I think you could get away with that number in a two-gallon, if you do water changes regularly.
Another option: put in a pair of paradise fish. They don't require warm water, and they're nice, colorful fish.
As for heaters, I don't know of one small enough for a two-gallon. Perhaps others will know of some.
Do you have filtration? And you know about cycling in a new tank, right? If not, ask! :)
Hope this helps.

Try some white clouds, they don't need a heater.
