Star-Crossed Lovers - Part 16

Heero walked quietly along the garden wall, waiting for Duo to show, lost in his thoughts about the day's happenings. Things were moving so quickly. Soon they would be truly joined, and nothing, save death, could make them part. Hopefully, tonight would go well, and tomorrow… Tomorrow things would change. He would no longer be alone. He was so caught up in his thoughts, he never even noticed when he slammed right into Duo.

"Oww!" Heero pulled Duo into a warm embrace. "Duo! Gods! You're all right!"

Duo whispered softly into his husband's ear. "Hey, love, I'm happy that you are okay too." He pulled back a little to look into those brilliant blue eyes. "Are you sure you're okay with all of this, love? I mean, how are you feeling? I know you and Wufei were very close."

Heero reassured his lover. "It's okay, love. Wufei was driven to madness by his need for revenge, or justice as he called it. Where would I be without my husband, my life? If Wufei managed to take that away, where would I be now?"

Duo looked down at his boots, still ashamed by his actions. "I'm so sorry, love. I couldn't stop him. Please forgive me."

"It's all right, husband-mine. You were forgiven the moment you drew your blade." Heero drew Duo into another embrace. Comforting their sorrows with love, Heero pulled him closer after a time and whispered into his love's ear. "Love, we can't focus on the past. Make love to me now, for our future." Heero nibbled on his ear slowly, savoring the moment, while Duo shuddered. "I want you inside me now, love. Let's go inside."

Duo moaned. "You still love and want me after all of this?"

Heero ground his stiff length into Duo, awakening something inside them both. "Does that answer your question, Love?"

Duo thrust back. "Oh god! Yes! If you don't stop that now, I'm going to lose control. Come on; let's go!" Duo pulled his soon-to-be lover by the hand as they ran stealthily through the garden to Heero's room. Their hearts were in tune, ready to finally know each other like they'd never known another. As they approached the house, Heero froze.

Duo stopped. "What is it, love?" he asked concernedly.

"It's… I'm just… We'll get caught if we rush this. Let me clear the way, and I'll be right back."

Duo pulled Heero into his arms and kissed him longingly. "All right, but hurry back, husband-mine."

"I'll be right back for you. I want you so badly," Heero panted after the long kiss.

Duo sighed and waited patiently for his husband to return. He still couldn't believe that he, of all people, was married, and to a Yuy. But what they had was more than worth every moment they spent together. Heero was amazing, sexy, and just downright wonderful. Duo sighed in bliss, thinking of the one he loved.

"Duo!" Heero whispered.

Duo turned to his love, suddenly pulled from his rather naughty thoughts. "Hey, love, is the coast clear?"

Heero blushed. "Hai!" He grabbed his lover's hand and pulled him toward the balcony that lead to his bedroom. "Come on! Just a little further."

When they finally made it to Heero's candle lit bedroom, they were both more than ready to get started. Duo pulled his lover in to a warm embrace, as he slowly nudged them closer and closer to Heero's bed.

"Duo, please," Heero moaned, his skin on fire, begging to be touched more than the soft lingering kisses Duo was giving him. Duo couldn't refuse his love. He continued on to Heero's neck and slowly down to his collarbone, sucking and nibbling on the hot flesh, making Heero gasp and moan in delight.

"God, I love you, Heero. You are so beautiful."

"Duo, please, don't tease. Just take me. Make love to me. I love you. I do. Make me yours forever. Nothing can ever change that after tonight. No matter what has happened in the past and what will happen in the future." With those reassurances, Duo reached for Heero's shirt and pulled it off, exposing his lover's chest to him for the very first time. Duo gasped at the sight his lover, flushed and panting, looking at him with desire and love. Duo laid Heero down on the bed, and then removed his clothing, slowly teasing Heero with his display.

Heero laid on the bed, shirt-less, panting at the sight of his beautiful husband giving him a strip tease. Gods, how he wanted him! "Duo, please! Come here!" Heero cried as he reached out to his violet-eyed beauty.

Duo, fully naked, laid on top of his husband. "You wanted something, love?"

"Yes, please, just get on with it!"

Duo pounced, kissing and teasing his lover, grinding his hard length into Heero's clothed erection. "You wanted this, my love?" he asked teasingly, as he toyed with the fastenings on Heero's pants. Heero could only moan in response, and turned into a puddle of goo at the teasings of his sadistic lover. Satisfied that he had Heero where he wanted him, Duo yanked Heero's pants off of him, and rubbed their flushed forms up against each other. Duo stopped, pulled back from his husband, and reached for the discarded clothing to search for the lubricant, wanting to make it easier for Heero's first time, and every time to come in the future. Heero cried at the loss. Duo kissed Heero full on the lips to reassure him and show Heero how much he cherished him; how much he still wanted him. As they kissed, Duo reached down and fondled Heero's straining erection, making Heero gasp and moan into the kiss. "Duo, stop, please. I want to come with you inside me." Duo stopped and looked deeply into Heero's eyes.

He felt so ashamed, unworthy of this beautiful gift that his husband was going to give him tonight. "Are you sure about this, love?"

Heero smiled softly at his husband, his lover. "Never more sure about anything." Heero parted his legs and looked trustingly up at his husband, his eyes brimming with the love he felt for the violet-eyed boy above him.

"All right, love," Duo said as he stroked Heero's cheek lovingly, and moved the other hand between Heero's parted legs, feeling for his entrance. When he found it, he pushed one lubricated finger inside. Heero winced at the strange intrusion. "Are you all right, love?" Heero nodded and Duo continued pushing in the finger all the way in, twisting and stretching his tight entrance. "Is this okay, husband-mine?"

"Yes, it feels good, but it's strange." Duo smiled softly and added another finger to Heero's loosened entrance. "Duo, that's so good," Heero whimpered. Then, Duo's fingers found Heero's special spot, and Heero gasped as white lights flashed behind his eyes.

Duo watched the wanton display and smiled. "Did you like that?"

Heero still panting from the sensation, gasped. "Oh, yes! Duo, please, more."

"You asked for it, husband-mine." Duo stretched Heero further, scissoring the two fingers inside his blue-eyed lover, while prodding his prostate. Heero gasped and panted on the bed, begging for more.

"Duo, gods! Duo!"

"It's all right, love. I have to stretch you more." Duo said calmly as he stroked Heero's cheek with his other hand. "God, you have no idea how much this makes me want you. I could cum right now just looking at you love." With that, Duo pushed a third finger into Heero slowly, allowing the tight ring of muscle to adjust. After Heero stopped panting, Duo slowly pumped his fingers in and out, prodding Heero's g-spot, just enough to give him a taste of what was to come. Heero was in ecstasy; never before had he felt what Duo was giving him now.

"Duo, please, take me. I'm ready! For God's sake, just do it!" Duo grinned and pulled his fingers slowly out of Heero to lubricate his pulsing erection. Duo then placed the blunt tip at Heero's entrance.

"Heero, I love you with all of my heart and soul. Thank you for being mine." With those words, Duo pushed into Heero slowly, savoring the feel of his tight heat surrounding him.

Heero winced slightly at the intrusion, still not quite ready. He needed to relax; he was still too wound up. "Duo, stop for minute… Hurts," he panted.

"It's all right, Lover. Just relax. I'll take care of you. Just give yourself a minute to adjust." With that, Duo reached for Heero's waning erection and pumped it slowly, until Heero writhed in ecstasy underneath him again, and in effect, relaxing the muscles around his pulsing erection. "Are you all right, my love?"

Heero nodded. "Yes, now."

Duo slammed the rest of himself into Heero as the other gasped at the sensation of being filled completely by the man he loved.

Duo almost came at that moment, and stopped to regain control. He wanted Heero to remember this night, and anticipate more nights like this to come. Then, Heero started moving underneath Duo, impaling himself further on his dripping erection. "God, Heero, if you don't stop, I'm going to lose it."

"Then, do it. Move!" Never one to take such an invitation lightly, Duo pulled out and pushed back in, creating a slow and steady rhythm between them. Heero squirmed and wiggled beneath him as Duo slowly tortured him into a quivering mass of sensations. "Faster, Love! Faster!" The pace picked up as they called out to each other; both reaching for completion within each other's souls. When the moment finally came, Duo reached out and grasped Heero's neglected erection, pumping in time with their thrusts. Heero gasped and moaned, calling out to the one he loved; the one he would love for an eternity. Duo shuddered as Heero came, muscles tightening around his hot member. With one more thrust, Duo followed his lover into oblivion. They fell asleep in each other's arms; their first-and maybe last-night together. But, neither thought of that as they slept comfortably in each other's arms.

*****

Heero woke up to the most content feeling he had ever known. Then, he realized why as the memories came slowly flooding back. He and Duo had finally made love. Now, nothing could separate them. Their marriage was consummated. Now, to get ready to meet with the Prince, but first, he would stay here and cuddle with his lover as long as he could. He stroked Duo's unbound hair as he slept, watching the soft rise and fall of his chest. Heero knew that Duo would wake soon. He was snuggling closer and closer. "Hmm, someone's faking it," Heero said softly.

"Mmm, never. I love waking up in your arms," Duo said sleepily. "Does it have to be morning? I want to stay here with you forever."

"That's a bit impractical, don't you think?" Heero asked amusedly.

Duo grinned wickedly and pinned his playful husband to the bed. "Oh, I don't know. I could think of a couple ways to keep you here." He smirked, as he ground his awakened erection into his lover.

Heero moaned in pure bliss. His husband loved and wanted him. This was one of the best days of his life. He just wanted to stay here and make love for the rest of the day. But, it was not to be. At that moment, a loud knocking was heard on his door. The mood was definitely killed as the real world intruded.

*****

Things were not going well for J this morning. He had just discovered that there were wedding preparations being made, for a wedding between Heero and Relena, and there was nothing he could say or do to dissuade Odin from reconsidering his actions. He sighed. Well, he better get Heero up and ready to face the music this morning. Heero would have to tell Odin that he had already married and there was no way that this new marriage would even be legal. J gathered his courage and knocked on Heero's door.

"Heero! It's time to get up. Dorothy is going to be here any minute to tell you something!"

Heero groaned. "Well, I guess that's it, love. You better go. I'll take care of everything; I promise."

Duo kissed his lover full on the lips. "I trust you, love. Here; take my signet ring so the prince knows for sure that you speak for both of us. I love you, and we will be together, come hell or high water."

Heero took the ring and pulled Duo into a warm, lingering hug, savoring the feel of his husband's comforting arms wrapped around him. "I love you, Duo. Now, go, before you get caught."

"I love you, too." Duo kissed him one last time, and left the same way they had entered together the night before.

Heero sighed sadly as he watched his husband and lover go. Then, he pulled on a robe to let J into the room.

"J, what would my mother want to see me about that is so important?"

"She will be here any minute to tell you that Odin has given the go ahead for you to marry Relena. The wedding is planned for Thursday."

"WHAT!!! But, he said I would have a chance to find someone I loved before I am forced married to the pink harpy! Well, it doesn't matter anyway. I am a married man. Odin can bitch and complain all he wants, but he can't annul our marriage now. I can't believe this! Call Odin up here when Dorothy arrives. I will speak to both of my absentee parents shortly. I need to clean up."

J smiled at Heero's resolve; this conversation was not going to be pretty.

*****

Odin and Dorothy were sitting in their son's sitting room, trying to figure out why he called them both here. He didn't know about the engagement; that couldn't be it. Something was wrong. He never asked to speak with them, even when he was a child...

Then, the door opened, revealing their son dressed in violets and blues, the colors of the house of Maxwell.

"Heero Odin Yuy! What is the meaning of this outrage?" Odin bellowed in rage, while Dorothy just stared at her son blankly.

Heero just glared at both of his rather clueless parents. "I am going to see the prince. I have some matters to tend to, but first, we need to talk. So, please, sit down, Father. I won't say anything to an angry lunatic," he said coldly.

Odin sat down rather stiffly, waiting for his son to talk. "Father, Mother, I have married in secret."

"Heero!" Dorothy exclaimed. "How could you? Don't you know we would have supported you if you had told us?"

Heero grimaced. "Not likely."

"Heero, you will get this marriage annulled. I never approved it. You will be marrying Relena on Thursday, and we will putting this whole business behind us. And why the hell are you wearing Maxwell colors? You could be killed if one of them spotted you dressed like that."

Heero smirked at their foolishness. "It can't be annulled, Father. It has been consummated."

Odin purpled with rage. "WHAT!!! WHEN!!!"

Heero smiled softly in remembrance. "Last night. And as to why I am wearing Maxwell colors, I am the husband of one Duo Maxwell. My name is now Heero Odin Yuy-Maxwell. I will be going to see the prince to plead our case before him, and explain that this is all just a misunderstanding. Good day, Father."

Odin stood quickly and forced Heero to sit down. "No! I will not have it! That's it! You are going to marry Relena, and give me an heir! You are not going to be the whore of some Maxwell! This never happened! We didn't have this conversation! You will be confined to these rooms until the wedding day! If you so much as step foot outside of this room without my permission, we are done! I will no longer have a son!" With that, Odin stalked from the room, slamming the door behind him.

Heero buried his head in his hands, willing himself not to cry. He knew something like this would happen, but he was hoping against all hopes that it wouldn't.

Dorothy stood and looked down at her son. "Heero, you know I can't go against your father. But, whatever you decide, I will support you the best that I can." With that, she turned and left the room, leaving Heero alone with his thoughts. Heero got up and went into his bedroom, shutting the door softly behind him.

J looked up at his charge and said sadly, "Didn't go too well, did it?"

Heero shook his head. "No, it did not. Please go see Father Maxwell for me. Tell him what has happened here, and have him arrange a meeting for a confessional tomorrow. We need to come up with a solution. Otherwise, my marriage bed will be my death bed."
