Last Night

January 1999

Quatre watched out the window as the other boy got ready to leave. His mind wondered while he stared and he remembered the events of the night before.

" It's okay. I came out first to show that I trust you," the blond boy said and smiled. The other boy lowered his hands and nodded.

" Well, both of our Gundams seem to need some repairs. My family has a house not far from here. Would you like to join me?"

The boy with the brown hair looked quietly over the blond. After much thought, he nodded his consent to join the other.

" Yokatta! Quatre desu. Yorishiku," the blond introduced himself as he climbed back into the Gundam.

The boys arrived at a large desert compound around sunset.

Last night

You were so in to it

" Welcome to my home. Don't worry about your Gundam, Rassid and the others will see to its repair. Would you like to join me for evening tea?"

Trowa followed Quatre to a sitting room where a tray of steaming tea awaited them. He sat on a seat near the window and watched as the blazing sun died into the western horizon.

" So, you still haven't introduced yourself yet," prompted Quatre.

You told me secrets that

You've never told a soul

Trowa took a sip of tea, " I have no name to speak of, only one I've stolen from someone else."

Quatre grimaced, " Well, what do I call you then?"

Trowa looked at him slightly puzzled; " You don't need to call me anything."

Quatre was a little taken aback by the boy's behavior.

You were so nervous and

yet oh so comfortable

" How about I call you beautiful? That's a perfect word to describe you."

Trowa's eyes widened at the boy's comment. Quatre just smiled.

" So, Beautiful, how did you become a pilot?"

" I watched someone kill a man. Then I took that man's name and his Gundam."

Quatre moved to sit next to Trowa. He looked deep into his one visible eye, smiled, then looked out the window at the stars.

As we explored your image of love

" Aren't they amazing? Thousands of little points of light, all there for us to wish on."

" What is there to wish for?"

" Well, besides peace and the end of the war, I wish for love. Someone to share myself with."

Trowa shivered as Quatre's fingers met the tips of his to cover his hand.

" Love isn't something one can find to easily in war. It's not right to endanger helpless women by getting involved with them."

Quatre smiled as his lips came close to Trowa's.

" Whoever said you had to love a woman?" he asked as his lips covered the other boys.

I drank your wine

As you tasted mine

" Quatre?"

He smiled and slipped his hand under Trowa's shirt as he kissed his neck.

" My father says I'm too much like a girl. It's part of the reason I fight, to prove myself to him. Well, I guess I'm more like a girl than we thought, for me to be so attracted to you."

Trowa gasped as Quatre's questing tongue entered his mouth.

I kissed your lips

" I, Quatre. This… I can't do this."

" Why love? Am I not lovely enough for you?"

" No, you're stunning, it's just…I'm scared. I, it's going to hurt."

" I'll go slowly. It'll feel great."

" No. I'm not emotionally read for this. I don't want to think of you as him!"

" As who?"

" The man who's name I stole. He… I used to work on the Gundam I now pilot. It's pilot was a cruel man. He said I was beautiful, my screaming was beautiful, my pain was beautiful… he raped me."

" Oh… Sweetheart, I know it's scary, but let me show you how love can really feel… let me show you what it should be like."

Quatre talked to Trowa as he caressed him to a tight ball of passion and need.

You felt my body slip

Into your soul

" Quatre…"

I heard you moan

Quatre smiled as Trowa wrapped his legs around his waist.

I almost cried 'cause it was so beautiful

No more words were spoken as the two bodies moved as one.

Last night

I was inside of you

Trowa sought out Quatre's lips and kissed him while panting his name.

Last night

While making love to you

To both boys all thoughts were lost. All that existed in the universe was the other and the feelings of love and passion stirred by the connecting of their two bodies. And when it was all over and they lay spent in each others arms, they took comfort in the others warm embrace.

I saw the sun, the moon

The Mountains and the rivers

I saw heaven when I made sweet love to you

The next morning Quatre gazed out the window as Trowa walked out to the carrier that held his Gundam.

" Will I see you again?"

"Maybe."

" Hey! You never did tell me your name!"

" Trowa. You can call me Trowa," he smiled slightly as he climbed into the truck and drove away. He hoped he would see Quatre again.

" Quatre-sama, are you sure it's safe for him to just leave? He knows where we are; he could come back."

" I hope he does come back. I'd like to see him again."
