In The Valley Of The Diamond Dogs

By Black Dragon62

Chapter 19: Saving Me

He pulled away from me, and I kept my eyes closed. Because if it was a dream, PLEASE let the dream continue in it's entirety.

"Duo?" Was the low sound I heard a few inches away from me. I opened one eye, and squinted a bit, then opened the other, and stared into Heero's face. I had nothing to say, there's nothing that I could say. I just knew, that words wouldn't be right at that point. So I just looked at him dumbly. "Are you ok?" He seemed to look a little panic. He might have thought That I didn't want him to kiss me, that I didn't want his affection, his love.

He couldn't be more wrong. I smiled into his face. I pulled his face closer to mine, and we kissed for a second time. Instead of the chaste kiss of a few minutes before, this one was filled with hunger, passion, lust, and want. I was pushed on my back, and my back hit the soft mattress beneathe me. I felt his hands rage over me. The next thing I knew, was that the lamp on the bedside table was being turned off, and my world was turned upside down.

I woke up, and I was wrapped in a blanket of warmth, with arms entangled around me. I blinked my eyes open, and turned over, and saw his solemn and angelic face, fast asleep an inch and a half away. I sighed, feeling warm and satisfied. Inspiration struck me, and I had to write it down, sing it, do something.

I stood slowly, making sure that I did not stir him awake, and I trodded silently over to the dresser, and tried to find a paper and a pen somewhere. I was starting to get frustrated because I could not find anything, not the back of a receipt, nothing. So I walked into his closet, and started to look around, and I found it. A guitar. I didn't know he could play.

I thought about that as I walked down stairs, stark naked and a little sweaty. I sat on the couch, and the dog named Max came in, looked at me for a second, then came over and laid down next to the couch on the floor. I laid the guitar in my lap, and I strummed. Nothing wrong with it. Perfectly tuned. I started to stum a tune, I didn't know what I was thinking, but I started to sing softly.

Unnoticed, Heero had felt the empty spot, and had come down the stairs, to see a naked Duo, playing his black guitar, and singing these sad lyrics:

Prison gates won't open up for me
On these hands and knees I'm crawlin'
Oh, I reach for you
Well I'm terrified of these four walls
These iron bars can't hold my soul in
All I need is you
Come please I'm callin'
And oh I scream for you
Hurry I'm fallin'

Show me what it's like
To be the last one standing
And teach me wrong from right
And I'll show you what I can be
Say it for me
Say it to me
And I'll leave this life behind me
Say it if it's worth saving me

I looked up, and saw him staring at me, and I didn't stop singing. I needed to get these feelings out, and this was the only way that was going to be able to do.

Heaven's gates won't open up for me
With these broken wings I'm fallin'
And all I see is you
These city walls ain't got no love for me
I'm on the ledge of the eighteenth story
And oh I scream for you
Come please I'm callin'
And all I need from you
Hurry I'm fallin'

Show me what it's like
To be the last one standing
And teach me wrong from right
And I'll show you what I can be
Say it for me
Say it to me
And I'll leave this life behind me
Say it if it's worth saving me

Hurry I'm fallin'

I saw him come over, and sit across from me, naked, and looking decidedly curious. He crossed his legs, and listened intently.

All I need is you
Come please I'm callin'
And oh I scream for you
Hurry I'm fallin'


Show me what it's like
To be the last one standing
And teach me wrong from right
And I'll show you what I can be
Say it for me
Say it to me
And I'll leave this life behind me
Say it if it's worth saving me

And by the end of my song, he knew my sentiments. I wanted him to save me. To help me. To get me out of this life I was stuck in. The prison I was in, was the lime light, and I needed to be free. I needed to be with him. I just wish he knew it.
