If Only You Knew

Part 10 – All You Need is Love

Tilting his head Heero stood on tiptoes pressing his lips to Duo's, the kiss was long and deep. Surprised Duo smiled against soft lips before taking control of the kiss, pressing the slim body closer. Sixth months of loneliness, and unrequited desire sprang to life. Kisses turned harsh and demanding, Heero could feel Duo's hardness pressing into his side, making his own straining erection quiver in desire. "Duo…" he murmured through kiss swollen lips are the taller man bent kissing across the pale neck, down towards the opening of his t-shirt. Moaning the smaller men felt his legs begin to buckle but that was ok, Duo pulled him up forcing Heero to wrap his arms and legs around his soon to be lover.

Hands wandered under clothing, smoothing across planes of muscle and skin. One arm holding Heero, Duo pulled Heero's shirt off in a quick motion followed by shrugging out of his own hoodie. Eager hand's also helped Duo shed his own top, naked skin met and both men groaned. "Duo," Heero pressed soft kissed to bronzed flesh along his neck and collar bone, the taller man rumbled deep in his chest. "Let's go to the bedroom," he mumbled carrying the other man easily he moved to Heero's room settling the other man on the bed.

Clothing was an obstacle that was taken care of between quick kisses and caressing hands. Neither could get enough of the other, barely able to separate to undress. Naked, Duo settled between slim thighs covering Heero from nose to ankles, taking his time leisurely kissing everywhere he could reach. Arching his hips Heero ground against Duo's hard erection moaning at the delicious friction. Every movement was pure pleasure and agony for more all at once. He wanted Duo closer, as close as possible wanted nothing more then to wrap himself around Duo and never let go. He wanted everything, wanted these turbulent and strong emotions that pulled at him to be answered.

With a soft sigh Duo kissed the top of the messy head, "Sleep well love," he mumbled his still over tired body finally gave out and he fell asleep. Smiling Heero stayed cuddling for a bit before gentling disengaging himself from the slumbering form. Kissing the softly snoring man he turned out the lights moving back into the kitchen to finish dinner and set Duo's aside. "Glad to have you home Duo."

"Good mood today sir?" Smiling Duo hummed as he spun the wrench they were working on the siege machine again, it had been down the last month while he had been away. "Indeed Private excellent mood," he and Heero had been in bliss this last week, unable to keep their hands off each other. When they were at work Duo hunted him out at every opportunity it was clear to everyone in the building the two were in love. The Private chuckled as he pulled the tool chest over, "Well then sir lets get this done so we can go home early today." Duo laughed, "My thoughts exactly."

Sorry love have little more work to do on machine. Be done tonight tomorrow off we can go out! Be home later tonight.

Heero clicked the phone closed with a smile, happier then he could ever remember being he began gathering laundry from him room. Filling the basket he walked into Duo's room spotting the half open duffel he wrinkled his nose. There was a rather potent smell coming from the bag full of dirty combats. Grabbing the bag he pulled it along to the laundry room.

Humming he began first with the worst of the clothes mainly Duo's six month dirty combats. "Geez Duo these things reek…" he mumbled, pulling stuff out of the many pockets. Pens pencils, papers, spent shells, maps, power bars…laughing he dumped the junk beside the washer he figured Duo would get a kick out of seeing this stuff. Pulling the last shirt out of the bag he paused feeling as if there was something heavy weighing down the front. Rooting around in the pockets his fingers met with solid resistance, grasping the small object he pulled it out. Duo's phone…or what was Duo's phone a bullet was lodged inside.

His fingers began to shake trembling as he turned the deceive over and over in his hands. He gently probed the pocket feeling the hole the bullet had taken. His chest tightened his breathing became erratic, the bullet had been stopped by the cell phone. "Oh god…" the thought of loosing Duo was inconceivable the idea that he could have died leaving him alone. Sinking to his knees he clutched the phone his eyes tearing, it had never hurt this much.

Finally he knew why, "I love him…" he whispered in the quite of the apartment, "I love him," he said louder. This had to be what love was, this pain and happiness all at once. Longing, lonely, and fiery sadness of desire. He had to see Duo now. Grabbing the phone he stood abandoning the laundry he headed out the door, his mind focused on getting to Duo.

It was late Duo, had sent the others home to their families, he didn't expect to be much longer. He sat inside the monster running a final diagnostic on the machine. "Ahhh come on…" he cried giving the panel a smack, as it sputtered to life finally. "Aha! You metal bastard!" with a cry he had it and feeling quite pleased with himself he sat back happily watching the monitors beep to life. "Duo!" pausing he listened again, his imagination must be playing tricks he thought he had heard Heero calling him. It came again, "Duo!" grabbing the porthole he lifted himself out the top. Sure enough, "Hey Heero what brings you down?" The smaller man stood frozen just below him, eyes wide he was doing that eerie crying thing he did. "Hey Heero!" jumping down from the top he gathered the other man close. "Heero what's the matter you ok?" He could feel the slim frame shaking violently, "Duo I had to see you, I had to tell you…" he wasn't making much sense. "What is wrong love?" Heero grabbed him tight, "I just wanted to tell you so much, how much…after all…" stopping he shuddered. "Duo I love you." He finally got out, the taller man stiffened, "Heero…" he murmured, "I love you Duo you mean so much to me, and I can't imagine my life without you I just wanted to tell you…" he trailed off embarrassed now.

Happy Duo pulled him up in his arms swinging him around, "Not that I'm complaining but what brought this on?" Without a word Heero handed him something glancing down he saw his cell phone with the bullet lodged inside, wincing at the pain of the memory it brought back. "Ahhh you found that…" he trailed off unsure what to say other then he had come so close to dying. "Now that I finally have you I have no intention of loosing you Duo." Heero said squeezing him tight, "Your not going to get away from me so easily." Leaning down Duo kissed pink lips slowly, tenderly with all the pent up love he could muster.

Breaking off the kiss he leaned his forehead against the shorter man panting slightly. "Duo do you love me still?" smiling softly he kissed swollen lips once more, "Heero, if only you knew…"

End.
