A/N: Man has it been a long time since I wrote on this last. O.o;;
{Listen as the wind blows
from across the great divide,
Voices trapped in yearning,
memories trapped in time.}
Duo stepped out into the darkness again, the night air warm. He smiled as the warm air wafted over his body in a slow breeze. He walked out onto the front porch.
'I don't even know why I asked that. It must have been some effect of the medicine. Lack of judgement, I suppose...' Duo mentally cursed himself. 'How could I be so stupid?' Duo lifted his face to the starry sky. So much possibility in this life, and I waste it on a guy i'll never have....' He shook his head. 'Even if I managed to *seriously* say somthing, he'd never have me....' The american pilot looked back infront of him.
"What is the point of this life? We move around, milling around like june bugs. Somone should just shoot us all. Do all of us a favor. Every human thinks he's soooo much better than the animals. I think therefore I am and all. But truth is, we're not. Truth is, wether we know it or not, we have the same objectives as animals. To mate and carry out the species. Whats the use?" Duo scoffed. "Facade or not, this is getting to be too much. I can't take it anymore. I'm going to take this like a mission and show Heero." He nodded, but still walked out, onto the street.
{The night is my companion
and solitude my guide,
Would I spend forever here
and not be satisfied,}
"Theres somthing about the darkness...most people are scared of it...but, damn, its just the night. No one understands its comfort. Its like an old friend to me." Duo lifted his eyes to the heavens again. "Alone, again. I am Shinigami. Everyone i've ever loved has died. I don't want to do that to Heero. The colonies need Heero. He's their savior...." Duo spoke in a tone barely audible above the wind. The harsh night sent the smells of downtown Tokyo, which, since about A.C. 191 had become ridden with gangs, graffiti staining every wall, marking territory. The smell of gunpowder and blood was everwhere. And on a few nights, you could see a dead body laying in an alley. Duo had seen such sights, and made a small prayer to whatever god there might have been, lowering his gaze, paying tribute. He turned, seeing Heero in the window.
{And I would be the one
to hold you down,
kiss you so hard}
Back in the safe-house, Heero stared out at the boy that had just left. He caught Duo's eyes and moved from the window when Duo motioned to him. He grabbed his jacket, and went out to meet duo. Duo looked at him, smiling coyly. This was like a game, all of a sudden.
"I want to show you somthing. C'mon." Heero followed without even the slightest hesitation,and Duo gained confidence. 'This is going well. Thank Shinigami.' the braided boy thought, pulling Heero along by his hand. He opened the door to their car, sitting himself in the drivers seat, and fastening the seatbelt with a click. Heero climbed into the passenger's side and did the same. Duo drove into the endless night. Soon, he crossed the city limits, and kept driving. Three hours later, the lights of Tokyo far behind them, the two boys climbed out of the car. Heero looked at Duo, as if asking 'What do you want to show me?' Duo motioned him to the front of the car, hopping onto the hood. Heero looked at Duo again, raising an eyebrow. Duo pointed at the sky.
"Look Heero. All the stars. There are so many of them. Kind of like people..." Duo looked at Heero. "There's somthing I've wanted to tell you, but i've been to much of a wuss to say it..." he paused. "Heero....I....I.....oh, hell. Here. I'll just show you." Duo wrapped his arms around Heero, pulling him into a long, hot kiss. When the kiss was through, the two boys looked at each other. Heero hadn't responded. Duo cursed himself.
{I'll take your breath away
and after I'd wipe away the tears,
Just close your eyes dear}
Duo's eyes brimmed with tears, and Heero wiped them away with gentle kisses.
"I love you, Duo." Duo blinked.
"But Heero...when I kissed you...you didn't do anything." Heero looked up at him, and Duo could have sworn he was blushing.
"I...I don't know how....." Duo started to laugh just slightly. Heero looked a little flustered. "Its not funny." Duo smiled.
"Of course not, Hee-chan. I'll have to show you how to kiss....but for now...just close your eyes, and trust me." the braided boy led Heero into the small patch of trees by where they had parked. Heero had his eyes closed as Duo had asked, and they stopped at a small brook. The american sat his lover on a rock nearby, and walked to the edge of the brook.
"Open your eyes." Heero did so.
"Its water. So?" He didnt seem impressed.
"Look at it. Its crystal clear. And they said all the water within 1000 kilometers of Tokyo was polluted. This is the only pure water. Its from the mountains." Heero still looked unimpressed.
"How do you know its so 'pure'? It may have pollutants you can't see." Duo half-glared.
"Well piss on my parade. Either way, c'mere and look at this." Heero did as he was asked. Duo pointed. Small fish swam in a little pool filled with water from the brook. "Tell me its polluted now, Spandex Boy." Duo playfully snapped the waistband of Heero's shorts. They returned to the car. Duo took Heero in his arms again.
"Just follow my lead." He pushed Heero into the grass gently, then, sitting on top of him, kissed him deeply, pouring his soul into the kiss. Heero slowly started to respond, pushing his tounge into Duo's mouth, catching on. They broke. The braided boy smirked. "Well don't we learn quickly, Mr. Yuy?"
{Through this world I've stumbled
so many times betrayed,
Trying to find an honest word,
to find the truth enslaved}
Heero smiled. He traced a finger down Duo's cheek. The american leaned into the warmth. Heero spoke.
"Duo...tell me you love me. I know you do...I just want to hear you say it. I've never heard it before...not said to me." Duo looked Heero in the eyes. He took a mock tone, as if taking an oath.
"I Duo Maxwell, Hereby claim that I love the man of my dreams, Heero Danger Yuy. Forever and always with all my heart."
"Heero *Danger* Yuy?"
"Sounds better if you have a middle name." Duo shrugged. "No one has ever said they loved you?"
"Once....a girl. But she tried to kill me later on...." Duo looked startled.
"How old were you?" He questioned, laying beside Heero.
"Thirteen. It was two years ago."
{Oh you speak to me in riddles and
you speak to me in rhymes
My body aches to breathe your breath,
you words keep me alive.}
Duo looked at Heero with compassion, and the Japanese boy could tell by the look on the other boy's face that the feeling was pure. Duo loved so deeply. Things mattered so much to him, and even in the midst of war, you could see the innocence in his eyes, that child from the Maxwell Church still lived on somwhere deep in Duo's heart. The little traces of sorrow Heero could see somtimes on the American's face on the monitor during a battle almost made him break down. Duo mourned all those he killed. He belived in what he was fighting for with every bit of himself. Thats why he fought like he did. With all his heart.
{And I would be the one
to hold you down,
kiss you so hard,
I'll take your breath away
and after I'd wipe away the tears,
Just close your eyes dear}
"I remember..." Heero began again, his voice trailing off, he winced. "I..."
"Hee-chan...you don't have to tell me now." Duo looked up and their eyes met, locking there for a moment.
"We better get home." they both climbed into the car, Heero driving this time.
{Into this night I wander,
it's morning that I dread,
Another day of knowing of
the path I fear to tread.}
The next night, Duo walked back out into the night. Even Heero's love couldn't stop his love of walking in the darkness and warmth the summer nights provided. He would wander until dawn, dressed in all black, with only the sheen of the metal of his gun occasionally. He ran this time, seeing the church again. It had a banner. 'Love Conquers All.' Duo couldn't help but agree with his own little definition of that banner. Reading those words, he didn't see the love of a deity, but the love of Heero 'Danger' Yuy. He smiled. In the churchyard, there was a memorial. He stepped up to it. It read:
Struck down with the church.
This marker mourns Itoshigo.
Birthdate: Unknown. Deathdate: 7.10.AC 85
Duo felt a hand on his shoulder. He heard the farmiliar voice of that little pregnant girl.
"Duo Maxwell...." He looked. There she was, clothed in white with beautiful wings. Her face was no longer dirtied, and she smiled knowingly. Duo smiled back.
"Itoshigo." She nodded.
"When you first met the vision of me, you thought you were alone in this world. Do you belive this now?" She smiled a bit wider. Duo shook his head, thinking of Heero.
"No, Itoshigo. There is more for me." Itoshigo nodded.
"I am your gaurdian angel, Duo. I have always been with you. I knew Heero loved you before you two even met. Go to him." She motioned, and then dissapeared.
{Oh into the sea of waking dreams
I follow without pride,
Nothing stands between us here
and I won't be denied}
Duo took her advice, and ran out of the churchyard, and didn't stop running until he was on the porch of the house. He entered quietly, and turned on the light. Heero sat on the couch. Duo gasped. Heero smiled.
"I knew you'd come back." He smirked.
"How did you--When I left...I...." Heero waved it away.
"Its not important."
{And I would be the one
to hold you down,
kiss you so hard,
I'll take your breath away
and after I'd wipe away the tears,
Just close your eyes dear...}
