You're beautiful, that's for sure
You'll never ever
fade…
Duo rolled over in bed and looked at the sleeping
beauty next to him, Wufei was so peaceful when he slept, those onyx eyes closed
hiding any emotions, no disappointment, no rage, not a thing could be shown as
the exquisite Chinese boy drifted between sleeping and waking. His lips hung
slightly open, and he breathed softly and calmly as he dreamt. Duo's lips
curled into a smile and he wrapped his arms around Wufei snuggling into the
back of his neck purring softly as he enjoyed the warmth and softness of
Wufei's golden skin.
It'd been a long time coming, the two pilots ending
up together. The attraction was obviously there, along with the tension that
goes hand in hand with it. Duo, even with his on again off again relationship
with Heero, had always felt a kindred spirit in Wufei. And had always wanted
him. Wufei'd hidden his attraction to Duo, with harsh words and by totally
ignoring the braided American's actions. Besides, he couldn't be in love with
the American pilot…it was wrong…at least he kept telling himself that.
But it had all cumulated in one passion filled
evening, which the boys were in the process of sleeping off.
You're lovely, but it's not for sure
That I won't ever stray
As Wufei stirred he felt Maxwell's warm arms
covering his body, and his eyes flew open…had he really done what his memory
told him he had? All those soft kisses, the passionate touches, had he really
given into the terrible want and let himself go into that realm so close to
death and back?
"D…" he coughed slightly his throat slightly raw…he
must've been screaming last night… "Duo?"
"Yeah 'Fei?" Duo leaned up a bit and placed a soft kiss
on Wufei's temple. Wufei bit his lip; his memory served him better than he'd
hoped.
"It's Wufei," he said purely out of habit, he'd gotten so
used to correcting the American boy that it came natural now "Duo…did we…?" he
knew the answer…from Duo's beautiful naked from pressed against his, from the
scent of musk that hung in the air…he knew…but he wanted Duo's opinion.
"Mm-hmm". The braided boy answered, stroking Wufei's neck
lazily, his violet eyes closed.
"Do you…" he swallowed, getting up the strength to ask
the terrible question, "regret…?"
"Of course not
Wufei!" Duo hugged the Chinese boy to him tighter, the skin to skin contact so
delicious that Wufei gasped. Duo kissed at the front of his neck gently,
placing little red marks where he suckled. Wufei turned and nuzzled to Duo's
face, pressing his lips to the American boys.
"So what does this mean that we're…?" Wufei asked,
raising his eyebrows slightly and pulling a bit away from Duo. Duo balked and
Wufei's heart stopped.
And though my love is real
And though my love is true…
Duo got dressed
quickly, afraid that Wufei would yell. "I can't…be with you yet Wufei," he
mumbled, tugging on his jeans. "I've…got too much on my mind…"
I'm like a bird I only fly away
I don't know where my soul is
I don't know where my home is…
Wufei
watched Duo leave with a blank expression on his face, but his heart was
sinking. "Why would he act like that...after we…" Wufei closed his eyes,
shivering as he recalled the evening, all the little acts of passion that had
been building up inside both of them. The frenzied kissing, the confessions of
love and lust, all of that…and Duo ran… He blinked his colorless eyes a few
times, digesting what had just happened and noticed that Duo'd left his boxers
in the room. The Chinese boy smiled…Hello Kitty boxers, where one even buys
Hello Kitty boxers Wufei didn't know. His heart sung softly as he thought about
Duo, stripped down to just those boxers, grinning like an idiot as he'd
realized that those were what he was wearing… Wufei slid off his sheets and
pulled the cutesy boxers onto his nude, caramel, nearly hairless body. He paced
around his room a bit pondering the situation, before opening the door, and
walking out to see where Duo had gone.
And baby all you need to know is…
I'm like a bird I only fly away
I don't know where my soul is
I don't know where my home is…
Duo had
made coffee for himself, and was sitting at the table, staring into the cup.
"Duo…" Wufei advanced on the American pilot, slowly,
with a sigh. Duo jolted, and spilled his coffee onto the blue tablecloth, the
brown liquid pooling around in the designs of the cloth. The auburn haired boy
jumped up to avoid the rest of the coffee, which would've fell into his lap.
Wufei calmly walked into the kitchen and grabbed a towel, to wipe up the coffee
mess. Duo was in the process of attempting to exit the dining room, creeping to
the door slowly. "Duo stay, I want you to stay, I'd like to talk to you,
please…" Wufei bit his lip and looked up at Duo, "Lover…"
Lover…he called me his lover…Duo stopped still in
his tracks, his heart beating furiously against his chest. He turned and his
violet eyes fell on Wufei, "Lover…? I'm…your lover?" Wufei nodded, still wiping
the table. Duo blinked at Wufei and shook his head. "I can't be your lover…I'm
not…I'm not a good boyfriend…" Wufei, who was taking the tablecloth into the
kitchen to wash it, stopped, and turned to look at Duo, his face gentle.
The Chinese boy abandoned the
tablecloth, dropping it to the ground and walking over to Duo, who was still
standing in the doorway of the dining room. "Why can't you be my lover?
Regardless of what happened in your past…this is new, this is different..."
Duo slumped against the doorframe, staring at his feet,
not daring to look up at Wufei because he knew that the Chinese pilots eyes
would make him melt again. "I've hurt everyone I've loved…killed most of them…you
don't want to be with me…"
Wufei put a hand on the other boys shoulder, massaging it
lightly "But I do."
"What makes you think that I wouldn't kill you
too???" Duo cried out, tearing up slightly.
"I'm willing to take that risk Duo. To be with
someone I love." Wufei leaned down and brushed his lips against Duo's.
Your faith in me, brings me tears
Even after all these years
But it pains me so much to say
That you don't know me that way
Duo slid down the doorframe, and cried, small tears
rolling down his flushed cheeks. "I don't deserve this Wufei…"
"What you don't deserve is the treatment everyone else
gives you," Wufei bent down and picked up Duo's limp frame, tossing the braid
over his own shoulder. "You're not a toy, or a sex object, or an idiot like
everyone keeps telling you. What you do deserve is love, affection, and
friendship. I don't see anyone giving you that or even trying. So why can't I?"
It's not that I wanna say goodbye,
It's just that every time you try
To tell me me, that you love me
Each and every single day
I know I'm gonna eventually
Have to give you away…
Duo nodded, and wrapped his arms around Wufei's neck
lovingly. "Do you mean it 'Fei?"
"It's Wufei…and of course I mean it Duo, have you ever
know me to lie?" Wufei smiles and kisses Duo's nose. Duo sighed happily.
"Can we go back to bed?"
"Of course my love, of course…"
