A/N: Well, I did it. I've been debating on doing this for ever, but it was RaddxRika's review that pushed me over the edge. Thus, Chapter 3 of A Certain Valentine's Day was writen sparking the beginning of turning this twoshot into a multi-chaptered fic. Good luck to me, I know. But still. *sighs* Have mercy.

Warnings: Yaoi fluff at the beginning.

FYI: Shashi and Tennou near the end are NOT OCs. They are from CLAMP's manga RG Veda. I'm planning on drawing as many characters possible from either other CLAMP works or Jane Austin works to stay as loyal to the era as possible. ^^' Wish me luck.

Well, here goes.

Chapter 3

Fai twitched feebly and nuzzled into the warmth that seemed to completely surround him. His dreams were vague and indistinct but they all had a common theme. Pain…and pleasure. Intense pleasure. The likes of which the young blonde had never felt before. It was awfully wonderful and he would give anything to be sure he felt it again soon.

He felt the encompassing warmth shift and he moved to compensate, until a spark of pain lanced up his spine. Then he was wide awake. He blinked when the color brown filled his vision. He knew for a fact that none of his bed sheets or linens were that particular color, so how…

The brown surface moved. Up and down, up and down in a steady rhythm. He blinked again and sat up enough so he could see over the brown to Kurogane's face.

Kurogane's face.

Fai squeaked and blushed darker than he thought he ever had before when the memories of last night's endeavors filled his mind at the sight of Kurogane's…his lover's…face, sleeping calmly beneath him.

That was another thing that the poor blonde couldn't help but notice in humiliating embarrassment. Kurogane was currently lying on his back with his muscular arms holding Fai's slender body sprawled atop him, preventing the younger man from moving. And both of their…Fai gulped…their…lengths were pressed together pleasurably; even occasionally rubbed when one or both of them shifted sending sparks of pleasure shooting through his pale slender body.

But it was the lingering tingles of pain coming from his lower back which caught and held his attention. He shifted in an attempt to ease the pain and instead caused it to worsen abruptly. He gasped audibly in pain.

Kurogane moaned and opened his eyes. Fai froze and simply stared back into those beautiful wine red orbs he'd fallen in love with so long ago as a crimson tint creeped into his cheeks.

Several moments of silence passed until Kurogane slid his hand smoothly up Fai's back causing the youth to arch against him. When his hand reached Fai's face it cupped the blonde's right cheek and pulled him lower. He loved the expression Fai wore at that moment. A mix of love, pleasure, anxiety, need, fear, and pain were reflected from those twin orbs of blue sky.

"Morning Fai," he whispered hoarsely, before kissing the beauty in his arms. "I should leave."

"Leave?" Fai repeated in despair. "Why? You only just woke-"

Fai's words were halted in their tracks by a single, thick tan finger planting itself on his lips. He kissed it tenderly.

"Trust me, Fai. What would your parents do if they knew what went on last night between us?" the darker of the two asked gently.

Fai started to answer, then swallowed his words. He knew perfectly well what his parents would do. They'd most likely disown him. Homosexual relationships were strictly taboo, not to mention illegal. He was so clueless as to not know the law, especially where he was concerned. If he was disowned, Fai could be beaten to within an inch of his life, imprisoned, and his beautiful Kurogane could be deported. After all, Kuro was only half English. Even though his father was a pure blooded Englishman, his mother was from the Far East and thus, as a half breed, Kurogane would not be looked upon with too much mercy.

Fai glanced over to the French doors and saw the sun just beginning to rise and lay his head down on his lover's chest, kissing it gently. Then he closed his eyes and relaxed to the soft caresses of his lover. The soft morning light filtered redly through his closed eyelids.

Morning light.

He jerked up in shock…and immediately regretted it when his lower back screamed in agony. He cried out as his body tensed up in an effort to ride out the pain. He relaxed slowly and realized that Kurogane was calling him.

"Fai! Fai, are you alright? Fai?"

"I…I'm fine. It…just hurts," he groaned, squeezing his eyes shut.

"I'm sorry."

Fai shook his head. "It's not your fault."

"No, it is." Fai opened his eyes and met the darker pair beneath him. "It's because of me. I was rougher than I meant to be last night. I guess I got a little carried away," Kurogane said quietly.

"It is not your fault, Kirgy," –Fai snorted when 'Kirgy's' eyebrow twitched at the nickname- "But that's not what matters right now. Right now, I need to get back to the house before they notice I'm missing. That is, if I can walk."

Fai unwillingly broke free of his lover's embrace and struggled to stand, but crumbled to the ground in a pile when his legs gave way beneath him. He blinked in surprise and blushed. He tried again, to the same result.

The third try, he felt a firm arm loop around his waist and break his fall. "Easy there. Your body is just exhausted from last night," Kurogane breathed into the blonde's ear, drawing a shiver from the younger form. "I'll help you get dressed so you look at least half way decent then I'll take you back to the house."

"But what about-" Fai's words were swallowed by a kiss that would have turned his legs to water if they weren't already. He moaned and leaned into the kiss as the elder pulled away. When the kiss was broken, he glared at the kiss's instigator. "You're cruel."

The raven haired man smirked. "You just noticed? I thought you learned that particular lesson last night." The elder breathed the words as his lips brushed against Fai's tantalizingly as he spoke. "Of course, I wouldn't mind teaching again another time," he continued, pressing his hips against the younger man's and grinding just enough to draw an adorable blush and breathless moan from Fai's body.

XxX

"Fai! Fai, there you are. Are you alright, my son? Good heavens, what happened to you? Why are you still dressed in yesterday's clothes? And why is Mister Hunter here?" Fai's Mother, Shashi DeWinter fluttered.

Fai struggled to find an answer but Kurogane beat him to it. "I'm afraid Fai decided to sleep in the studio last night, Lady DeWinter. He was working on a painting and apparently fell asleep at the easel. I only found him because we were supposed to meet there for a ride we had planned today. But I'm afraid it'll have to be cancelled. Seeing as how Fai is a bit tired and sore from sleeping in such an awkward position for such a length of time."

There was a moment of stunned silence in which everyone present stared at Kurogane in mild shock. Then Fai's brother chimed in helpfully. "I'll show you to his room, Kurogane. Thank you for helping my brother. He can be a bit empty brained at times."

"Tennou!" Fai balked. His blush only intensified when his dark haired lover chuckled. This was going to be a long day, Fai thought dismally.


A/N: Well, I hope y'all liked that. I'm sorry about the length, but this was ritten on the spur of the moment (when I SHOULD'VE been writing a paper and studying for a test). ^^'
