Finally
Zelgadis stood by the fountain, mouth dry, and hands twitching. It wasn't quite midnight yet, so there was still time...no! he must be strong, he wasn't
going to back out of this. He would see this through, not matter what the consequences.
"Oiya oiya, I didn't expect you to come."
That voice. It always taunted him, always had a hint of something more. Zelgadis turned to see Xelloss sitting on the fountain ledge, eyes open and
glittering with something unknown. Zelgadis swallowed the lump that appeared in his throat. God, he wanted Xelloss. BUt he couldn't let his feelings show.
"What do you want?"
Xelloss merely grinned and replied truthfully. "You."
Zelgadis felt the blush hit his face full force. He wondered if someone could tell his original face color was blue. He was suprised that he didn't blush purple.
He swallowed again, the lump too big and his mouth too dry. Trying to force his body obey him, Zelgadis attempted to speak.
"Do-do you really? Or is this just some sick joke of yours?"
Xelloss stopped smiling, his face deathly serious. "No, it's not some sick joke. I really want you, for all your....you-ness." Xelloss winced, that
was bad. Normally he was excellent with words, but this setting, and the obvious willingness of the subject of every single wet dream he had had since this assignment,
all made for a rather flustered Mazoku.
Zelgadis blinked. He could swear Xelloss was a bit flustered. But no, this was Xelloss. How could he get flustered? Zelgadis decided that his mind was playing
tricks on him. "So...what do you REALLY feel, Xelloss? Oh, why am I asking? Even if all you felt was lust, I'd still go with you."
"I...well, you see.......uh..." Correction: Xelloss WAS flustered. It was all very strange. Xelloss, flustered? By him? Next thing he knew Amelia would renounce
world peace, Lina would become the poster girl for human virtue, and Gourry would recite Shakespeare.
"Is this a dream? Because if it is, the first thing I'm going to do when I wake up is strangle you."
Xeloss calmed himself and stood up. Swiftly crossing the distance between them, he reached out and grabbed Zelgadis's chin. Tilting it up softly, Xelloss whispered softly.
"It's no dream. At least I think so. If it is, you have my permission to strangle me."
Zelgadis couldn't help it, he smiled. Xelloss looked at him with surprised amusement. "You're smiling, Zelgadis-san!"
Yes, he was. In fact, he couldn't stop. It seemed too odd, here he was, with Xelloss, living out one of his fantasies. Zelgadis's eyes fluttered closed and he
sighed happily. If it was a dream, he didn't care. All he cared about was that Xelloss was here, and Xelloss cared about him in at least one way. Definately
happy. He didn't open his eyes as Xelloss ran his fingers over Zelgadis's face, as if memorising every curve, every pebble, every disticntion that set his face
apart from others. Xelloss in fact didn't know what he felt. All he knew was that he was feeling something new for Zelgadis and it felt good and painfully
sweet. He was perfectly content to just stand here forever. Suddenly Zelagdis's eyes snapped open, and he grabbed the back of Xelloss's head and pulled it down,
kissing him a bit forcefully. Xelloss froze in shock, then relaxed and melted into the kiss. His arms snaked their way around Xelloss's shoulders, holding him close.
He felt Xelloss's arms around his waist, and pressed his body against the Mazoku's, going for as much bodily contact as possible. They broke off the kiss gasping for
air. Zelgadis rested his head against Xelloss's chest, not breaking any other contact. "Finally..." He breathed.
"Finally what?" Xelloss asked, resting his own head on top of Zelgadis's.
"Finally one of my dreams is coming true."
Xeloss chuckled, the rich voice sending shivers down Zelgadis's spine and the vibration causing his whole body to feel warm.
"Mine too, little one. Mine too."
They stood there for a long time, not speaking, not moving, simply feeling the other's presence. The same thought echoed happily between them.
Finally...finally we can hope.
~Oware~
AN: Well, I don't think that's up to my original standards, but it's sappy. That's all I care about, especially since I've been in a depressed funk since
writing my Weiss Kreuz fic "It's Too Late". There.....I'm a bit happier now.
