Duo glared back at Wufei. "Nani?!?!"
Wufei snorted. "I said, you're crazy."
"My sanity is not the issue here, Justice-boy! I wanted to know what happened to Quatre! So WHAT if I almost got killed?! Those bastards might have got him and I wanna know if he's all right!"
Wufei's eyes widened, and Duo realized that he might very well be in deep shit. "WHAT did you just call me?!"
Duo gave him a meek look, and bowed deeply with a flourish of his arm. "I beg your pardon, oh mighty Avenger of Justice and Righter of all Wrongs."
A low growl was his only warning; then Duo found himself the victim of a flying tackle by a rather ticked-off Chang Wufei.
"Omae o kurosu, Maxwell!!!"
Duo was currently doing his best impression of the Heero Yuy Glare of Death(tm). "Oh, I see how it is. You call me crazy for almost getting myself killed, when I really don't give a damn, and now you're gonna kill me? Something's wrong with your logic, Justice Avenger."
"MY logic?!" Wufei practically screamed back. "What the fucking HELL is wrong with YOUR logic?! You don't CARE if you get killed?! Well, I've got news for you, but there are quite a few people who would be EXTREMELY unhappy if you DID die!!!"
"Like who?!" Duo shouted back, flipping over so that Wufei was pinned beneath him.
"Oh, I don't know, how about the freakin' COLONIES and the entire POPULATION of the freakin' PLANET and--"
"Oh, that's inspiring!"
Wufei dropped his voice to a low, barely audible growl on his last two words: "... and me..."
Duo opened his mouth for a sharp retort, then snapped it shut as Wufei's words slowly permeated his rage. He got up and stalked to the window, arms crossed. His voice was low. "Why the hell would you give a damn? I'm just a street-rat swept up in some great cause, fighting for colonies that really don't give a shit half the time."
Wufei pulled himself into a seated position on the floor and wrapped his arms around his knees. He hadn't meant for Duo to hear that... it was hard enough to admit to *himself* that he was falling for the braided baka--
Scratch that. He *had* fallen for the American pilot. And he hadn't planned on *ever* revealing that infatuation. But now....
"I... I just do," he mumbled softly, closing his eyes and burying his head in his arms. "I have nothing. No family. No colony. You and the others are the closest thing to friends I've ever had. I'd hate to lose someone I lo-care about, Duo."
Duo didn't turn around, but it was obvious his voice was rather choked, and this was something that was totally new. No one had ever seen his mask slip at all, but it seemed to be doing this. "Oh, Wufei... you better just disband any idea at all that you care about me. Anyone I care about dies. You couldn't possibly love the god of death... I lost everyone and everything... I can't dare risk losing you. Dammit... I'm getting all... emotional..." Wufei heard a slight sniff as Duo raised his hand to scrub fiercely at his eyes.
Wufei lifted his head, blinking. Duo was... crying? It wasn't possible... but....
Hadn't he just said that he couldn't risk losing *him*...?
He never even realized that he'd stood until he was right behind Duo. < What the hell am I thinking?> he wondered as his arms slipped around Duo's waist from behind of their own accord.
"Gomen," he said softly, resting his head against the bishounen's back. "I didn't mean to upset you..."
Duo heaved in a shuddering breath and twisted so he was facing Wufei. He had a rather shaky version of his usual manic grin on his face, but his eyes were shimmering with unshed tears. "You're courting disaster, ya know..." Even now, Duo wouldn't let go. He was giving a valiant effort to remain a jester. But his mask had some pretty big holes in it at the moment.
Wufei didn't answer, other than to blink velvet eyes at Duo. After several seconds of silence, he nodded his head silently and stepped back, dropping his arms to his sides.
"Gomen," he murmured again as he turned and walked towards the door. Just before he got there, though, Wufei stopped and turned.
< Now or never,> he thought mournfully.
"Wo ai ni, Duo," he whispered.
Duo stared at Wufei for a considerable amount of moments, then his lip started quivering and he fell to the ground, weeping as if his heart was broken. "Oh no... oh god, I love you too, but... I don't want to lose you. It hurts too much, it's so much easier to be alone..."
Wufei didn't know what to do. He stared at the braided teen, biting his lip as he tried to figure out what to do. He didn't even notice when he drew blood. Finally, he walked slowly back across the room and knelt next to Duo.
"It might be easier... but... is it really what you want?" he asked softly, hesitating to touch the boy again. What if he pushed him away?
Duo shivered. "N... no. It's not what I want. But anyone who gets close to me dies. My parents died. Solo died. The whole church died. Even Quatre might have died, cause he was one of my best friends. And you mean too much for me to ever want to risk you dying... the thought scares me so bad... oh Wufei..." Duo broke down completely and practically flung himself into Wufei's arms, sobbing.
Wufei wrapped his arms around Duo and just held him tight, unsure of what to do.The boy was just so damned certain that it was his fault that everyone he cared about died. There was nothing he could say to dissuade him of that idea, so he did the only thing he could.
He held on tight and waited until the tide of tears subsided.
Duo finally calmed down, and sat up, sniffing and rubbing his reddened eyes. "Gomen, Wu... I cracked..." he said with a whisper of a grin.
Wufei loosened his hold on the other boy just a bit and tilted his head to one side. They locked eyes for a moment; then Wufei tore his eyes away. Seeing Duo break down like that had brought too many bad memories to the surface--the loss of his parents, Meiran's death, the destruction of his colony--and he didn't want anyone to see the pain those memories always brought.
"We all have to break down now and then, Duo," he murmured softly, letting his eyes slip shut.
"Aw, hell, Wu... I've never seen you crack, Heero doesn't crack, Trowa doesn't crack, and Quatre hasn't had enough to crack about, even though this war whipped up on him pretty good, and now he's GONE. I'm just weak, ne?..." he said with a self-depreciating grin.
Wufei struggled with an answer for that one. He had never, *ever* thought of Duo as weak. In his humble opinion, Duo was probably the strongest one of them all. Heero and Trowa wore their masks too well, to the point that they were completely emotionless... on the outside. More than once, Wufei'd heard one or the other crying softly at night. But he was careful not to let the pain seep through. Apparently, he'd done *too* good a job of that.
Hell, his mask was starting to crack right now.
He cursed his voice as he finally replied in a slightly wavering tone, "Iie, Duo. You are not weak."
Duo scowled slightly. "Yeah, yeah... but I'm crazy and you're gonna kill me." He smirked slightly. "I'm not scared of death threats, Wu-chan. Not even from you, and I know you're more than capable of killin' me... but... sometimes I do things because I am scared, like earlier today, I..." Duo trailed off, as if there had been something else he had been going to say. He screwed up his courage and went for it, speaking all in one breath. "IgaveOZDeathscythe."
Wufei whipped his head around, eyes snapping open. The pain that he was forcing back mingled with shock and the tiniest hint of despair.
"Na-nani?!" he stammered.
"I... I had to," Duo said, hanging his head. "If I didn't give 'em my Shinigami, well, they said they knew where you were, and that you were dead. I couldn't prove or disprove this... so I didn't have a choice."
"... gomen nasai, du-chan," Wufei said in a barely audible voice, embracing the other boy once more. Duo loved his Gundam; it was impossible for him to believe that Duo could care more about him than Deathscythe. "gomen," he said again, adding, "maybe you should've just taken the chance... gods know i'm not worth losing the war...."
Duo shrugged slightly. "Well... I was damned if I did, and damned if I didn't. Losing either one of you would have broken me, so I took the chance that my heart told me to take. I've lived without Deathscythe... I can manage that... I can't imagine you not being around anymore."
He looked up only to see Wufei turn his face away completely, eyes shut tightly. He froze when he heard the words Wufei barely mumbled next:
"... came too damn close to finding out..."
Duo narrowed his eyes slightly. "Too damn close to finding out about what?"
Wufei snapped his head around, eyes blazing. There was more than just anger within those velvet depths; Duo could have *sworn* he saw a lingering sadness as well.
"Ever wonder *why* I don't have a colony?!" he snapped, dropping his arms and shifting away from Duo slightly. "It's because L5 fucking EXPLODED, okay?! I WATCHED my goddamned HOME blow up!! And if I had been just a little fucking slower, you wouldn't have had to make any fucking decision between me and your Gundam, okay?! OKAY?!" And with that, the last vestiges of his mask shattered and he broke down into bitter tears.
Duo was, needless to say, very taken aback. He blinked, then blinked again. Of all the people in the world he might have expected to crack, the last one on the list was Wufei. Duo's eyes were huge. He slowly got to his feet and backed up. "G... gomenasai... Wu... I... I didn't mean... I didn't want..." he trailed off, shocked and feeling terrible for dragging this out of the Chinese pilot.
Wufei wrapped his arms around his knees and curled up on the floor, crying too hard to answer. Everything he'd held back for the past several years, all the pain, attacked him at once, leaving him a sobbing, pitiful creature. He was vaguely aware of Duo backing away, and his sobs renewed. Through his pain and sorrow, he could hear himself say, "don't leave me... please, duo... not you, too...."
Duo paused in the middle of the doorframe, clenching and unclenching his fists. He slammed his hand against the wall. "No... dammit, no, I'm not gonna run away again. I've ran and hid all my life..." He strode back into the room, scooped Wufei into his arms, and gave him a deep kiss that shocked the hell out of himself and probably Wufei as well.
Wufei's eyes flew wide, then slid shut, a tiny whimper escaping from his throat. Duo was kissing him. It was almost too much to hope that he wasn't dreaming....
But in his dreams he never, *ever* told anyone what happened to his colony. That was enough to convince him that he was awake. Tentatively he parted his lips, offering himself completely and needing the comfort that only a loved one can give.
Duo staggered back, eyes huge enough that they appeared to be in danger of popping out. He blinked a few times. He had shocked himself beyond words. He felt dizzy and went and sat on the couch. < What am I THINKING?! Oh yeah, that's my problem, I'm NOT! >
Wufei sat where he'd been dropped on the floor, blinking a few times in stunned surprise. His tears were almost forgotten, though a few continued to fall from his eyes. He reached up and lay a shaking hand to his lips, which he knew were probably going to bruise from the force of that kiss. He still couldn't believe....
"D-duo...?" he finally managed to whisper, voice as shaky as his hands.
Duo's voice was thick when he finally managed to reply. He patted the couch next to him. "I don't trust myself to talk... just don't say anything, and it might be all right..."
Wufei blinked again, wiping away his tears with the back of his hand. After a moment he picked himself up from the floor and walked over to the couch, dropping down next to Duo. He drew one leg up to his chest, wrapped his arms around it, and rested his chin on his knee. Once he was comfortable, he turned his head slightly so he could watch Duo.
Duo stared at the floor for a minute, and realized that he was nervous. He glanced over at Wufei and unconsciously ran his tongue over his lips. He couldn't remember the last time he was nervous about anything...
Wufei sighed softly. It was very rare for Duo to be so quiet for so long... he wasn't sure if that was a good thing or a bad thing. Torn between sitting still and doing *something*, he finally shifted slightly so that he was turned towards Duo in a lotus position, hands just resting on his knees. He tilted his head to one side and blinked. Yeah, Duo really was too cute sometimes....
For a moment, nothing happened. Then, after a second or so, nothing continued to happen. Duo merely stared at the floor in between glances of Wufei. He wanted to make a move so badly, but, having lost the spark that his rather strong moments put into his actions, and no longer having the incensed rage at himself, doing spontaneous, crazy things didn't come so easily.
With another sigh, Wufei finally got sick of nothing happening. It was a risky move, seeing as he wasn't *nearly* as impetuous as the American pilot, but *someone* had to do something!
Needless to say, Duo was not expecting Wufei to suddenly drop into his lap.
Literally.
Duo made a rather strangled, surprised noise as his lap became full of Wufei. It had been pretty much one of the last things in the world he had expected. He blinked a few times, looking at Wufei, then cracked a grin. "Hi there... how nice of you to drop in..." he said, smiling like his usual self.
Wufei made a soft, contented sound and dropped his head to Duo's shoulder, letting his eyes drift shut. "Gomen," he murmured under his breath. "I didn't mean to... you know...." He trailed off, unconsciously wrapping his arms around the braided boy's neck as he snuggled closer.
Duo grinned and wrapped his arms around Wufei. "Eh, its no problem. If ya recall, it was me who started it."
Wufei lifted his head slightly and gazed up at Duo. There was still a lingering sense of sadness within those velvet pools, but it was mingled with affection and trust.
He leaned forward and pressed a soft kiss to Duo's lips. "But... I shouldn't have--"
Duo raised a finger to Wufei's lips. "Ah ah! I shouldn't have either. But, like ya said, we all gotta break sometime. I just usually break when I'm by myself. Not supposed to, ya know. Boys don't cry."
Wufei sighed and lowered his head. His own words *always* came back to haunt him. Honestly, he wasn't sure he believed in the justice for which he fought. Hell, he didn't even *like* fighting! It was fighting that had initially taken his parents away, fighting that took away Meiran, fighting that had destroyed L5--
He never noticed when another lone tear slid down his face. "weakling," he muttered softly. "you don't deserve him, Wufei."
"Whaddaya mean ya don't deserve *me*? I haven't been worthy of much my entire life. I was lucky to get a meal every now and then. I don't own a thing but the clothes on my back, and even those were given to me. *You* don't deserve to be stuck with some braided lunatic being warm for your form."
Wufei frowned at the phrase. It took him a moment to realize what, exactly, that meant; then a bright red blush worked its way across his face and he smiled shyly.
"We're both a couple of idiots, ne?" he said softly, shifting position slightly on Duo's lap to snuggle a little closer still. "Wo ai ni. And nothing you could ever say or do--no matter *how* desperate or stupid or crazy--can ever make me stop loving you."
Duo paused for a second, then grinned. "Damn, I wish I had a camera, I don't think I've ever seen you blush before..." Duo smirked, then gave Wufei a kiss on the nose. "And everyone knows I'm an idiot... if I had a penny for every time someone referred to me as a 'braided baka'..." Duo giggled at that. "Oh well, being an idiot is *fun* most of the time."
Wufei giggled, then stopped abruptly, eyes widening. How long had it been since he'd laughed...?
Duo grinned. "Too late, I caught that. You laughed." Duo smirked evilly, then gave Wufei a poke in the ribs.
Another tiny laugh escaped from his throat before he had a chance to offer any protest. "Yamatte!" he insisted through his giggles.
Duo paused, looking devious. "So the Wu-man is ticklish, ne?" With a wicked look, he started tickling Wufei mercilessly.
Wufei laughed helplessly and squirmed off Duo's lap, trying to get to the relative safety of the other side of the couch. Unfortunately, the couch wasn't all that big.
Both boys tumbled off the edge of the sofa...
... and rolled right into a potted plant. It crashed off its stand next to them, showering them both in dirt and fertilizer. Duo blinked, pausing in his tickling and looking at Wufei, who was equally covered. Duo blinked again, then began giggling helplessly.
Wufei tried to glare at the other boy, but only ended up helplessly laughing himself. He attempted to brush some of the dirt off of himself, only making an even bigger mess. He finally gave up and giggled out, "You need a bath!"
Duo looked at Wufei. "Oh, *I* need a bath? You're the one wearing white...well...former white..."
To his surprise and amusement, Wufei poked his tongue out at him before lapsing back into his giggle fit again.
"Ma, ma, so we *both* need a bath!"
Duo grinned widely, then slung Wufei over his shoulder. He carried him to the other room, waited for the water to fill up, then dropped him, fully clothed, into the big bathtub. [1]
Wufei sputtered as he surfaced, shooting a mock-glare at Duo. "Gee, thanks," he said sarcastically. "Silk isn't exactly wash and wear, you know."
Duo smiled back at him. "Maybe not, but wet silk looks damned nice on you."
Wufei blushed slightly, then a slow sly grin crossed his face.
Duo was not expecting to be hit in the face with a soaking-wet navy blue tank top, but that's exactly what happened next. He peeled the shirt off his face to catch Wufei looking up at him, a shy tiny smile on his lips.
"Oops. Gomen," he said softly, smile still in place.
Duo blinked, then cracked his knuckles. "Oh, that's it. Now you've done it." He tensed, then dived off the side of the tub, tackling Wufei in mid-flight and sending them both to the bottom underwater.
Wufei coughed as soon as he reached the surface, fighting to keep from laughing. He had definitely *not* expected Duo to dive-bomb him!
He reached up and pushed several wet strands of ebony hair away from his eyes. Somehow, his hairtie had snapped when Duo hurled him underwater....
Duo grinned. "And the crowd goes wild! 2 points for Duo Maxwell! WOOHOO!!!" He smiled in a way that was both sweet and devious at the same time, looking at Wu through his long eyelashes.
Wufei shivered slightly under the scrutiny Duo was giving him. What exactly was the other boy planning...?
Duo looked at Wufei seriously for a second, then dropped to the bottom of the tub as if hauled by lead weights and stayed there.
Wufei blinked, still wondering what the hell Duo was up to. Needless to say, he yelped when he felt something tugging at his pantlegs underwater... and again once he realized *what* was tugging on them.
"Duo!"
Duo snickered, sending up a stream of bubbles, and with one good yank managed to completely de-pants Wufei.
Wufei barely managed to keep his balance, grabbing hold of the side of the tub for support. As Duo surfaced and tossed his pants aside, a slow wicked little grin crossed his face. He took a deep breath and dove underwater.
Duo turned, and noticed Wufei was gone. Before he could be curious, he felt his pants leave his body. He fell on his rear, blinking. He had never expected that from WUFEI, of all people!
Wufei surfaced and flashed a grin in Duo's direction. He casually held up the other bishounen's pants and asked, "Lose something?" before tossing them off to the side along with his own pants and shirt. He scowled slightly.
"You're wearing too many clothes for in the bathtub, Du-chan," he said casually.
Duo flashed him a grin. "Yeah? So are you!" So saying, he dived and remedied Wufei boxer-less.
Wufei fell backward again, barely remembering to hold his breath before he sank beneath the water. Two could play at this little game....
Duo grinned, then bent down and took off his shoes, which he had never taken off in the first place when he had dived in. He threw them over the side, and in his moment of distraction, Wufei struck.
He yelped in surprise when Wufei suddenly surfaced right in front of him and pressed a quick but intense kiss to his lips. While he was trying to remember how to breathe properly, Wufei managed to strip him of not only his shirts, but his boxers as well.
Duo grinned at Wu, pulling out his braid as he talked. "Braids and water don't mix. That was pretty sneaky of you, there, Fei-chan..." Duo snapped his hair tie to the side, still grinning. "This means it's my turn to try and outdo you again..." he said, right before he gave Wu an intense, soul-searing kiss, pulling his body tight against his own. When he was sure he had Wufei completely breathless, he finally released him.
Wufei sank down into the water, eyes slightly glazed over. The only thought that he was currently capable of was nothing more than < ... wow... that was... wow.>
Duo smirked in a self-satisfied manner, trying to catch his breath himself. "What... no retaliation?" he managed to quip, smiling impishly.
Sloe eyes blinked up at him, then a tiny smile flitted across his face and he pressed close to Duo again. Without saying a word, he leaned forward and gave Duo a very, very gentle kiss.
Duo shivered and almost collapsed as he became a boneless collection of hormones. "Oh..." he managed to say.
Wufei peered up at Duo through half-slitted eyes, the tiny shy smile still in place. "How was that?" he nearly purred. He'd never really expected to be in a situation like this, with *Duo*, and was a bit nervous... even if he was barely managing to hide that little fact.
Duo purred as he gathered Wufei into his arms and gave him a slow kiss. "That was... indescribable."
Wufei made a soft sound of contentment and wrapped his arms loosely around Duo's neck. He felt warm and safe in Duo's arms, and trusted him completely. True, he was still a little nervous; but then again, he'd never really been in love before.
Duo's impish grin took on a more sincere quality. He stared Wufei right in the eyes, as if he could see to the core of his soul. "Aishiteru, Fei-chan. And don't you ever forget it," he whispered, smiling a smile that was all for Wufei and no one else.
Wufei sighed softly and pressed his lips to Duo's once again. It felt like a dream; he still found it a little hard to believe that Duo loved him, too. He whimpered and parted his lips in silent invitation.
Duo took Wufei up on his offer and slowly slipped his tongue into the Chinese boy's mouth. He explored slowly, reveling in the taste and feel that was Wufei.
Wufei made a soft sound and shyly twined his tongue with Duo's. He shivered slightly and pressed closer to the violet-eyed pilot, afraid that he would wake up any second. This *had* to be a dream...!
Duo felt much the same as he took Wufei up on his invitation. He slowly deepened the kiss, enjoying himself quite thoroughly. He was almost surprised when Wufei didn't shatter or melt under his touch, surprised to find that this WAS real, he *wasn't* dreaming... he was really here pressed up against this beautiful body, kissing those wonderful lips, just as he had always dreamed.
Wufei finally had to pull back to gasp for air. Velvet eyes blinked at Duo in awe and adoration, another soft smile flitting across his face. Tentatively he tangled his fingers in those long chestnut locks, seeming to be in awe at the sheer length and silken texture of it.
"Hmm, beautiful," he said softly, letting it flow over his wrists.
Duo smiled again, that genuine smile, not the manic grin he usually sported. "You've been hanging around Quatre too much, I think... his uchuu no koroku must be rubbing off on you, 'cause I was just thinking the same thing..." Duo said softly, eyes locking with those beautiful velvety midnight pools.
A faint blush spread across his cheeks, and Wufei ducked his head with another shy smile.
Duo grinned and placed a kiss on his forehead. "You don't need to be scared, not of me... I'd never hurt you, Fei-chan," he murmured softly.
"I... I'm not scared!" Wufei protested, tilting his head up again. The faint red tint was still on his face; it was actually very kawaii. "It's just... I... well..." Words failed him, and he settled on ducking his head again, his blush deepening.
Duo smiled wider. "No? Eh, I don't see why you would be scared... you could probably kick my ass with ease." He brushed another kiss to Wufei's forehead.
Wufei turned his face up again, brushing his lips softly to Duo's. "Why would I want to do that?" he asked, his voice barely above a whisper.
Duo grinned. "I dunno, so you had an excuse to touch my ass?"
That elicited another giggle from Wufei. "Duo no baka," he purred, kissing the American pilot yet again. He paused, chewing his lip nervously, then mumbled under his breath in a rush "I'mjustalittlenervous'causeI'veneverdoneanythinglikethisbefore." [2]
Duo smiled understandingly. "There's a first time for everything, ne, Fei-chan? If you don't want it to be me, I understand and won't push the issue."
Wufei looked up at Duo, blinked, then tilted his head up and dropped another sweet kiss to the bishounen's lips. "Only you," he said in a slightly husky whisper.
Duo purred as he recaptured Wufei's lips, sliding his hands down to his back and pulling him close. "You have no idea how happy that makes me, Fei-chan..."
A soft moan escaped from Wufei's throat as he wrapped his arms tightly around Duo's neck. He felt hot and cold all at once, but it felt absolutely wonderful. He pulled back, breathing heavily.
"Onegai... Duo..." he managed to gasp out.
Duo's breath hitched, and he paused. "Are you sure?... I mean... I'm not gonna be able to give you much of a chance to change your mind should you do so five minutes from now... Are you sure you want it to be me?" Duo whispered.
Wufei pulled Duo down into another tender kiss, tangling his hands in the other boy's chestnut hair. "Hai," he replied softly. "Please, Duo... I want you to be my first... my one and only... please...?"
Duo looked him deep in the eyes. "Hai, Fei-chan... That would please me more than anything else in the whole universe," he whispered, then closed his eyes and kissed him with a slow, burning passion, fueled by all the numerous dreams he had had of this wonderful bishounen.
A soft moan escaped Wufei's throat as he melted under the intensity of Duo's kiss. He returned the kiss fiercely, fingers tightening in the other bishounen's hair.
Duo moaned softly and slowly leaned his lover against the wall of the huge tub, arms wrapped tightly around him as he ravaged his mouth, loving each and every noise he managed to drag out of this beautiful creature.
Wufei whimpered slightly with a sense of loss when Duo finally pulled back from the heated kiss, only to gasp when that talented mouth attached itself to his neck and began to nuzzle there.
"Mmmm," he purred, letting his fingers trail through Duo's long hair and down his back. "Wo ai ni, Du-chan."
Duo, who had his mouth busy at the moment, showed that he felt the same towards Wufei by running his hands over Wu's well-ripped chest and lightly pinching at one nipple, drawing a pleased noise from the raven-haired bishounen.
A low, breathless moan escaped Wufei's throat as Duo nipped a slightly sensitive spot near his ear. That must have encouraged the other bishounen, for he continued to nip and lick that particular spot, leaving Wufei breathless and weak with passion.
Duo felt the pounding heartbeat under his fingertips that so closely matched the wild speed of his own. He had never even entertained the idea that he might one day be here, with Wufei all passionate beneath him... the very thought pulled a small moan from his throat and he let his fingers slowly slide across Wufei's taut stomach.
Wufei pressed his body tightly to Duo's, gasping as his lover's fingers ghosted lightly over his heated skin. This was torture, slow and sweet. He wanted it to end; he never wanted it to end.
Duo forced himself to take it slowly, despite the boiling protest offered by his body. He wanted Wufei, all of him, NOW, right NOW, but no... that wouldn't do. It simply wouldn't do. Duo's idea of 'taking things slowly' consisted of wrapping his hand around Wufei's sex and stroking him.
Wufei moaned and rocked his hips upward, thrusting into his lover's hand. He managed to gasp out "Duo... onegai... ahhh..."
Duo continued to nibble on Wufei's neck, kissing and licking his way up to his ear. He licked said ear lightly, his voice a husky whisper. "Are you sure? I want you so bad... mmm..."
"H-hai," Wufei whimpered, his head lolling to one side. "Onegai... I... want this... I want... you... mmm... please...."
"Please what, koishii?" Duo whispered, continuing his exquisite torment.
A strangled moan sounded from Wufei before he gasped out an answer: "Please... take me... love me... ahhh...."
Duo couldn't help but moan as he continued to kiss, lick and nip any flesh that was within reach. His free hand slid down, and he slowly slid a finger into his lover.
Wufei gasped at the intrusion and bucked against Duo's hands. The dual sensation was exquisite, the barest hint of pain set off by growing pleasure. He moaned and rocked against his lover, drowning in the sensations Duo was awakening within him.
Duo continued to nuzzle and kiss his lover as he slid a second finger slowly into the tight sheath of Wufei's body. He controlled himself and forced himself to allow his lover time to adjust, despite the fact that he was sure half the tub must have evaporated from the heat he was surely radiating.
Wufei groaned and pressed against his lover's hand. His legs slipped apart to accommodate the violet-eyed bishounen, and he struggled to hold himself upright. It felt almost as if he were melting beneath the heat of their combined passion.
"D-duo," he moaned breathlessly, rocking his hips upward. "No-now... I can't... ahh... stand it anymore... please... do me now...."
Duo slowly withdrew both his hands, and positioned himself so that his own throbbing erection was poised and ready to go in. "Aishiteru, Fei-chan..." he whispered, then slowly thrust forward, his eyes squeezing shut at the insanely tight heat gripping him. He paused, gasping for breath. "Oh GODS..."
A sharp little cry wrenched itself from Wufei's throat as he threw his head back, eyes squeezed shut. It hurt, gods it did... until Duo's firm length brushed that too-delicious spot deep within him and pleasure flooded his senses. The cry changed to a deep moan as the raven-haired bishounen rocked his hips up, driving his lover deeper within his body. "DUO..."
~ * ^ * ~
Quatre landed Deathscythe with a thump. He had finally managed to escape, and had never been so happy to be home. And, to top all that off, he had gotten Deathscythe back! Duo would be so pleased...
Wearily, he trudged to the door and fumbled with the key. After a struggle, he managed to get the key into the lock. He shoved open the door and walked in. He set down his coat. Quatre raised an eyebrow at the tipped over potted plant, and briefly wondered why it was knocked over.
"Du-chan? Wufei-chan? Are you here?" he called.
When he got no answer, Quatre frowned slightly. < Perhaps they went out?> he asked. He heard a sudden cry from his bathroom, along with someone screaming Duo's name. It sounded like Wufei! < Is he under attack?! What's going on?!> Quatre said as he pitched open the door and ran into the bathroom. Such a shade of red was never seen as the one that seeped onto Quatre's startled face as he took in the situation.
Neither bishounen in the tub even seemed to notice him, so wrapped up as they were in their own actions. Which gave the startled, and embarrassed teen, time to slowly back out of the room and quietly shut the door.
Quatre shook his head to clear his thoughts, but the only thing that stuck in his mind was: < Duo... and *Wufei*?!?! Well... it *sorta* makes sense... kinda....>
~ ^ * ^ ~
Duo thought he heard something, and managed to drag his eyes open in just enough time to see the fleeing blonde. He briefly thought of how it was nice that Quatre was back, then went back to the more important matters at...hand. [3]
Wufei rocked his hips up again, another low moan rising from his throat as he drove the American deeper within himself. "Duo... mmmm... love you...."
Duo moaned as he slowly ground his hips against his lover's, thrusting deep within the other boy's tight, hot body. He had never felt anything so good in his life.
"Oh gods," Wufei moaned breathlessly as he wrapped his legs around Duo's waist, head dropping back as they rocked together faster and faster. "Oh yes... ahhhh... wo ai ni... mmmmmm...."
Duo moaned, his breath coming in gasps. He managed a whispered 'Aishiteru' as he drove harder into his lover, unable to believe such a wonderful sensation. "Oh gods... you feel so damn good... oh Fei.... ahhhhhhh...."
"Du... oh GODS!" Wufei practically shrieked, clinging to Duo as he came hard, body shaking from the sheer force of his climax. [4] His seed spilled over both their stomachs, and his head dropped weakly against the tub.
Duo was shoved over the edge when he felt Wufei's body spasm underneath him. He let out a small strangled cry as he came hard, collapsing on his lover.
Wufei struggled to catch his breath, eyes closed as he shifted beneath Duo. He felt drained and weak, but sated at the same time. With a sigh of contentment, he wrapped his arms loosely around his lover and pressed a soft, gentle kiss to Duo's lips.
"Thank you," he murmured contentedly.
"Thank you?" Duo smiled as he pushed a few errant strands of hair from his lover's face and kissed him softly. "No need to thank me..."
Wufei giggled softly and snuggled up to his lover, practically purring his satisfaction. "Hmmmm, 'kay," he murmured as his eyes slipped shut. "Love you, Du-chan."
Duo smiled and kissed Wufei on the nose, cuddled up against him. "Love you more," he teased lightly as he slid into sleep.[5]
A short time later, Quatre had managed to come down from the shock enough to think rationally about the situation. He'd known that Duo secretly had a thing for the Chinese pilot... he just hadn't given any thought to the possibility that the feelings were mutual....
He slipped quietly into the bathroom, a tiny smile coming to his face even as a blush tinted his cheeks. Both bishounen were curled up on the floor, sound asleep. They really were kawaii together. The blonde draped the blanket he'd brought in with him over the sleeping pair.
Quatre smiled and shook his head as he floated out the door. He heard Duo mumble something in his sleep, then left the room in giggles as he realized that the braided pilot was humming the wedding march. < Too kawaii...>
