Chapter 25: Heaven on Earth

The screen door creaked close as footsteps could be heard coming down the hallway. I couldn't help but smile as the red haired figure appeared in the kitchen doorway covered in sweat that beaded attractively down from his temples. Lord was he ever attractive. "C'mere." I beckoned him over and lifted the wooden spoon to his lips. "Don't be a baby." I said as he hesitated for a moment. "This coming from the man that eats military rations." It was a valid point, rations were known for tasting like shit and it held ever true no matter how hungry you are. He licked the spoon I still held in front of him, his eyes warmed slightly as he tasted it.

"Since when did you add cook to your resume?" He inquired cheekily. I tiled my head up to place a chaste kiss on his lips before I reached down and squeezed his butt playfully.

"You need a shower; dinner will be ready soon so hurry up." Matt turned and moments later I heard him going up the stairs two at a time before the water started to run from the bathroom attached to the master we stayed in. To be honest, Matt had a terrible singing voice. Horrible. It made small children cry and he knew it. But that didn't stop him from belting it out in the shower like most of us do. I heard the off key notes drift down the hall and grinned as I kept cooking out dinner. I think he was attempting to sing a Panic! At the Disco song but it was hard to tell with just how bad he was.

Dinner was finished the moment Matt walked back in clad in a pair of fitted jeans and a white v-neck tee shirt. Damn he looked good. "Here." I said and handed him a plate while he gave me a soft kiss on the lips that made my heart flutter in my chest. "Save it for dessert." I teased as he tried to deepen the kiss that was meant to be innocent.

"Nooooo." He complained and kissed me again, "You know I've got a sweet tooth."

"Eat." I commanded gently as I moved to the table with a puppy dog like Matt following. We had been here for about a week, time really had no meaning to us now, but it was at the point where we needed to connect with the real world. I reached for the remote and turned it to the international news to get caught up.

"More breaking news, listeners. Two simultaneous attacks on a British and American embassy result in terror ripping through Europe as the battle takes a new step. The attackers are yet unknown but it is guessed that among the terrorists is German Colonel Benedikt Eberhardt, an extremist with a bitter hatred for England." I froze and looked at Matt. Colonel Benedikt Eberhardt's real name was Charles Jeevas. Matt's father. "The first attack landed on the American embassy mere minutes before the second fell on the British embassy. A total of thirty seven lives were lost on the steps of the embassies. On scene now are some of the world's top police to find out who is the culprit of such a deed." The screen went black then, I had turned it off. I didn't want to hear any more.

"Matt?" I asked and met his steady gaze. He didn't answer for a few seconds but when he did there was something steely about his tone.

"Don't worry; he's not my concern now." I looked down at my weathered hands, how could he say that about his own father? "I only say that because when I'm with you, you're the only thing that matters." Pleasure flushed across my face as he reached across the table and took my hands in his. I looked up into his eyes, seeing only tenderness devoid of all negativity that always seemed to be hidden in the depths of Matt's soul. "Blush suits you." Oh damn, I only blushed more when he said sweet things like that. I shook my head, unable to formulate any coherent thoughts.

"Uhm." I managed to stammer out, my heart already hammering against my chest. The more pressing matter was the situation in my pants… Boy Scouts could camp under there. Of course that only made me blush more.

"Dammit, Mihael." Matt said and stood, coming over behind me. He leaned down and whispered in my ear, "You're too sexy for your own good." His voice was so sexy as he blew cool air against my neck, sending a shiver of pleasure down my spine.

"Mmmmhm." I moaned and leaned back into him, desperate to feel his touch. His strong hands suddenly grabbed my hips and pulled me up before a hand between my shoulders forced me down over the table.

"You're too sexy to leave like this." He growled animally. Whoa… I think I just got harder hearing him like that. Matt's capable fingers wound around my waist and undid my jeans, dropping them to the ground. His raging boner rubbed against my thigh as his hands pushed my shirt up around my neck. I shuddered as his cool fingers ran up my stomach and tweaked my nipples.

"Noo." I moaned, it felt too good. I was going to lose control. His hands left my chest and I let out a cry of anger, I wanted more! The slow zip of his pants being undone came to my ears seconds before his strong hand pushed me down against the table face down.

"I'm going to fuck you so hard your ancestors will feel it." He whispered in my ear and entered me. I cried out in pain but he didn't stop, his member throbbed inside me with every second. The cool feeling of his piercing running up my arse only made me moan louder.

"Matt!" I moaned as he was buried balls deep in me, "Harder! Fuck me! Oh GOD yes!" I shouted like a whore as he started moving his hips. I pushed back to meet him. "Please!" I begged, I needed more! I needed for him to utterly dominate me. His hand held my back down and the other did something I never expected. I felt the stinging as his hand slapped my ass. I gasped in pain and pleasure. "Nnnhnn, harder! Again! Again! Oh god please!" I moaned as he slapped my ass again. His hips slammed into me, forcing me into the table again and again. Matt groaned deep in his chest when I tightened around him.

"Cum for me, Mihael." He growled in the same sexy voice while he slid completely in then all the way out of me.

"Not yet." I begged, knowing he could make me cum if he wanted to. His body shifted, he slammed up into me and I screamed in ecstasy as he utterly destroyed me. It was too much. I whimpered as my body gave in and my seed shot all over the ground but he still didn't back off while I shuddered through the most amazing orgasm ever. His pace faltered then with a final slam, he came hard while moaning my name.

We collapsed together onto the ground, his arms wrapped loosely around my body. I leaned back into my lover and closed my eyes for a moment, "That was… No words even." I said breathlessly. Never before had I wanted to be dominated by a man but Matt… Matt made me feel like a bitch in heat.

"It was." He whispered in my ear as he tightened his arms around me. "Mihael?"

"Hm?"

"Never mind." I turned in his arms to look at him; there was a distant look in his eyes.

"No, what is it?" Something was wrong.

"I… I'm sorry."

"Sorry for what?" I didn't understand, why was he apologizing?

"For bringing you into my crazy life, for putting you in danger, for making you go against your father's wish-" I cut him off with a gentle kiss on the lips.

"If I had the same choice again, I'd pick the same path." His answering smile was radiant, one of those rare moments where I realized just how out of my league Matt was. He was beautiful, he was a genius, he was everything I wanted to be yet here he was with me, another foot soldier. I grinned slightly as I remembered what he once said to me. "Matt, don't ever doubt my feelings for you." Recognition dawned in his eyes and he grinned affectionately at me before kissing my nose.

"So much for dinner." Oh! That was right… Sex had interrupted dinner. Oh well.

"Eh, it reheats but I'm hungry for something else." I gave him a seductive look and stood, "C'mere, lover boy." I said and ran up the stairs. Matt caught me in a flying tackle so we landed on the bed.

"Round two." He said against my chest.

XxX~~~XxX

"The road I walk is paved in gold
to glorify my platinum soul.
I'll buy my way to talk to God
so he can live with what I'm not."

I lay out across the sand on a long towel while Matt swam out to the raft out in the deeper part of the lake. The radio blared with one of my favorite songs, Don't Stop by InnerPartySystem. There were cold beers in the cooler that the radio sat on top of and the warm feeling of the sun beat down on my chest. What more could a man ask for? Well… Maybe a blow job but after last night I was drained dry. How did Matt have so much energy?

"The selfish blood runs through my veins,
I gave up everything for fame.
I am the lie that you adore,
I feed the rich and fuck the poor."

There was a loud whoop followed by what sounded like a monstrous splash. He would forever be a kid at heart no matter how many horrors he saw. When Matt was allowed to just let loose and play, he acted like the most immature child you had ever met but it was probably the most adorable thing I had ever seen. More adorable than puppies, and I loved puppies. I sighed happily as I sat up and reached for a beer from the cooler. Five o'clock somewhere, right?

"I got, what you want,
It's just, don't stop.
I got, what you want,
It's just, don't stop."

I popped open my beer and took a sip before setting it aside and picking up a book I had found in the library of the old timey house we were living in. It was called "The Asiatics" by Frederic Prokosch written in 1935. So far it was kind of interesting; it was about a young American's adventures in Asia in the early twentieth century. When Matt had seen the cover he had shrugged in the "never heard of it" way he had which was a bit of a shock. It seemed like Matt knew every book that had ever been written.

"This is entertainment,
Lies are entertainment.
You are down on your knees,
Begging me for more."

A big yawn wrecked havoc on my concentration, man was I tired. And sore. Definitely sore in the ass area. But it was a good kind of sore, like the kind after a hard work out that you feel all through the next day. I became aware of Matt then, who definitely was not in the lake anymore. He was stretched out across another towel reasonably close to mine. How had I missed that? I shook my head and put the book aside to give attention to the love of my life. "When did you get here?" I asked as I traced water droplets down his chiseled abs.

"A few minutes ago, you were pretty absorbed so I didn't want to bother you."

"Yes, because we all know how much you bother me." I teased and leaned down to place a kiss on his warm lips that tasted slightly of strawberries. Since coming to the house, he hadn't smoked once which was kind of amazing. I had been told that Matt would never quit as long as he lived but here he was having gone just over two weeks without so much as touching them. I was so proud!

His eyes were closed when I pulled back, "Are you asleep?" I demanded but his eyes fluttered open.

"Around you? Impossible." I couldn't help but smile, he was just so damn perfect! I lay back and we stayed silent, listening to the song play out.

XxX~~~XxX

"The war rages on as attacks on populated areas of England become more and more frequent. Death is being brought like the plague as hundreds are killed in each attack. Advisor to the Queen, Harold Martchkiss, was killed in the most recent attack. Many more deaths will follow should the war continue this way. In the beginning there was a definite advantage to England and their allies but now there seems to be no hope for the once powerful nation. Is it time to fall into the demands of the Germans? The military is losing more men and women every day than they ever have in history, is it worth the lives lost any more?

"In other news, the perpetrator of the attacks on the embassies in Germany has been discovered. As predicted, the villainous miscreant is none other than Colonel Benedikt Eberhardt. Time is up for today, thank you for watching International Life Around the Clock." I just shook my head, how could such a terrible man have fathered such a wonderful son?

"It's ready!" Matt called from the kitchen. I jumped over the back of the sofa in a mad dash to get to the treat he had been baking all day. "Whipped cream?" He asked as he was cutting a large piece from the flourless chocolate cake he had made especially for me.

"And strawberries?" I asked hopefully. Ah-ha! There they were!

"I also went out a got some freshly made raspberry preserves from a local farmer, want some?"

"Do you really have to ask?" I pulled the gallon of milk out of the fridge and poured myself a glass. Matt hated milk so I didn't even bother asking before putting it back in. You'd think that he'd love milk since his favorite meal of the day was breakfast but nope, he refused to drink it.

"Here you go, love." He kissed the top of my head and went about the clean up since the cake was a pretty messy thing to make. I took one bite and nearly melted, "Is it good?"

"Matt, if you ever get fired from being a spy you could be a chef." That got a happy laugh from him as he started washing everything. There really weren't words for how happy I was to be here with Matt but I was also sad, we'd be going back to England at the end of the month with was a week and a half away.

The lovely redhead sat next to me with a piece for himself and started eating. "I'm surprised it turned out this well." He said as he accidentally got whipped cream all over his lip.

"Can't take you anywhere, can I?" I teased and leaned over to kiss him on the lips, licking away the handmade whipped cream. "Dork."

"That pretty much sums it up." He admitted and smiled. It was weird when I thought about it but Matt had come into my squadron labeled as a hacker yet I had never seen him do anything more than send messages to Wammy. Was he really a hacker or did they just say that to get him in?

"Are you really a hacker?" I blurted out, blush peppered my cheeks.

"Yeah, why do you ask?"

"I've never seen you do anything… hacker-y at all."

"I'll have to show you some time, it's kind of boring to watch though. I just don't really need to do it all the often anymore since I'm a field agent."

"Did you do it for Wammy before?"

"When Watari first got me involved, yeah. I did all the hacking then since I was by far the best. I still am but I prefer to be out making a visable difference."

"Is that why you're so good at video games?" I teased, Matt did tend to game for hours on end. But then again, I usually joined him and we'd pass out on the couch together with the game still going. Geez, we really were a couple of guys.

"Oh shut up."

"No tell me, how did a nerd like you become so good in the sack?"

"Oh my GOD! You're as bad as Jared!" He exclaimed, his cheeks turning almost as red as his hair. Jared… Ryan, Jonathan, Jimmy, Mark… The boys. I missed my boys like you wouldn't believe. Where were they? What were they doing? Were they even still alive? "I hope they're still okay." He voiced my own thoughts. "I could get someone back at HQ to check on them for us."

"No no, it's alright. We'll be going back soon enough."

"Uhg. That's right, I completely forgot. Man. I sure forgot about being an agent fast."

"Loser."

"Hey now! You're the reason so you can blame most of it on yourself!"

"Gladly." I said with a serious face. Our eyes met but I couldn't hold it any longer, I cracked a smile at the same time he did.

We moved into the living room and put a DVD in, The Avengers or something like that. I opened up my arms and Matt snuggled up against me until we were both perfectly comfortable. The movie started pretty quickly with action nearly right away but I really wasn't paying attention to it, I was more focused on the feeling of the human in my arms that I loved more than life.

This really was heaven on Earth.
