stuff with me!

I Love You
~*~

- turn to with frozen lips
your hands are icy cold
your eyes burn bright
against the frost-bit sky
you never seemed more beautiful
than you do tonight-

He sweeps my hair out of my face to lean close for a
kiss. They're cold from being outside for hours, and
his fingers are ice on my skin. But it just feels so
good that I can't say a word, and I kiss him back, hoping
to warm him up.
It's one of the cold winters that Los Angeles gets
once in a century, making people
think the Apocalypse is coming, and fast. But even in
the cold, the sky is an endless blue, going on forever
and ever.
I look in his eyes. They're looking straight at me,
watching me.
"I love you." I grin to him.
He places an arm around my shoulders, so my head can
lean on his shoulder. He kisses my forehead this time.
"I love you too."

- pale on the horizon
like leaves frozen in the snow
our two shadows
merge inseparably
will time stand still
if it's pierced with cold -

I cuddle closer to him, as we sit alone in the early
evening. It just seems to be getting colder and
colder... it snowed earlier today
too, to make matters worse.
Not that thin slushy shit that melts once you touch
it. Real snow, the fluffy kind that's perfect for
snowball fights.
Too bad I hate the snow.
Our shadows flicker with the street-light, the bulb
growing dim and flickering. They
merge together, making us one person. "Heero?"
"Hm?" At least it wasn't a 'hn.'
"Aren't you cold?"
He shook his head. "No. Are you?"
"What do you think?" I'm half shivering.
He pulls me closer against him, so that I'm
practically in his lap. He wraps both
arms around me, holding me. I sigh contently and bury
my face in his warm jacket.

- the more i live
the more i know
what's simple is true
i love you -

"I love you, Heero. I'll love you forever." I whisper
to his chest.
"You say something?" He runs a hand down my arm,
rubbing me to get me warm.
I look up at him, smiling. "Nothing."

- there's a warmth
in my heart
it haunts me when
you're gone
mend me to your side
and never let go
say 'time knows nothing,
we'll never grow cold' -

Even if my body's freezing, I'll always feel a warmth
inside, just for him. But when I'm away from him, it
aches and yearns for him. I wish
we could always be together, and never part.
Hmm... going to the bathroom and buying clothes would
be REALLY interesting...!
"Heero..."
"What now?" He tries to be annoyed, but I can humor in
his throat. And I can see it
in his eyes. "Duo?"
I reach up to kiss him softly. "I'm not cold anymore."

- the more i live
the more i know
what's simple is true
i love you -

"Do you want to get off?" He raises an eyebrow.
"No, no. Just wanted to let you know." I wrap my arms
around his chest and pull
myself as close as I can get. Truth is, I'm about to
freeze my ass off, but I'm past
the point of shaking. I just don't want to get up. As
a procrastinator would say, "I'll
do it tomorrow."
I'll get off of Heero in a week or so.

- twilight descends on
our silhouette
how soon spring comes
how soon spring forgets
old man winter
be our friend
old man winter
be our friend -

The sun is almost done setting, and the stupid
street-light can't decide to turn or whether to stay
off. Stay off, leave us alone. The
bulb dies just as the others come on, leaving us in
the dark as the sun melts away.
Heero's stroking my hair, placing the loose strands on
top back into place. The touch of his fingers moving
like spiders on my scalp
makes me shudder in delight.
"Still cold?"
"No."
"You're a terrible lier." Heero smirked, leaving my
hair alone to kiss me again. I just about melt in
happiness. "Let's go home."
I nod, reluctant to get up, but anxious to go
some place warm.
We walk off down the street, keeping close together.
Heero takes my hand and places it in his coat pocket,
gripping it loosely.
"I love you Duo."
"I love you too, Hee-chan."
I wonder how long it is till Spring...

- 'cause the more i live
the more i know
what's simple is true
i love, i love you -

I'll always love you, Hee-chan.

~owari~

Okay, I feel better know! Besides, I needed to write
something like this. My muses've been nagging for
fluff, since all I've been
writing is angst poetry lately. Hey, they gave me the
ideas... *^^*;;;;;;
Well, ja ne. Hope you enjoyed.
And Goddess damn it! My batteries for the CD player
just ran out! Off I go to
make some soup and find more... ja ne mite!

glomps,
