"Has anyone seen Heero?"
"No. He hasn't been to school either "
"Hnn… well, maybe he's sick, but he should've called… well, let's start practice!"
Duo let his beautiful violet eyes wander towards the door. A week had gone by since that day…
"Would you like to come inside?"
I took Duo a while to process what he'd just heard. When he discovered he was still in one piece after such a bold daring, Heero's words penetrated his skull and then he realized Heero was holding the door wide open for the braided American to go inside. Wondering for just a moment whether it was a trap to make it easier to beat him down to a pulp, he overcame the apparently silly idea and timidly stepped into the Yuy threshold.
It was a large, colonial house, like most were in the suburbs. Just as Duo stepped into the living room, a clap of thunder made the windows vibrate.
"Just in time" said Heero at Duo's back. He signalled for Duo to take a seat. "Would you like anything to drink?"
"No thanks, I'm good"
Heero sat right in front of the braided black belt. He leaned forward, resting his elbows on his legs, and entwined his fingers, never loosing sight of Duo. Silence fell and it sure was a damn uncomfortable one. Only another roar of thunder interrupted the staring contest.
"DUO!"
He jumped startled.
"What!"
"You were in a zone. Come on, it's time to get started" said Quatre, pulling Duo by the gi.
Yanking out of his memories, Duo let the little blond lead him towards a corner in the dojo. Quatre's next examination was due in a week and he wanted to make sure everything went as perfect as possible, and the best way to do it? Forcing Duo to be his particular teacher based on irresistible puppy looks and the promises of as much pizza as the American could eat.
"All right Quatre, let's do this… for the hundredth time" muttering under his breath the last part, he took his place. Currently he had a lot of things to mull about, but considering there was nothing he could really do about it, he had only left focusing on the matters at hand.
"So…"'So', the classic beginning of an awkward situation. They were now inside, but the hardest part was just about to begin. Forever they'd been enemies, now what could they possibly use as a topic of conversation?
" So?"
"Umm…"
"Why did you kiss me?"
Duo backed away surprised. He certainly hadn't expected such a direct question.
"Well… I'm not quite sure…"
Heero stared at him through narrowed eyes. His gaze was making Duo uncomfortable.
"Maybe I was just feeling suicidal," joked Duo. Heero raised an eyebrow. "Heh, just kiddin'… I kissed you because… well, it didn't seem like a bad idea at the time".
It was Heero's turn to be surprised.
"Listen, I'm sorry for kissing you, if that's what you want to hear. I know I shouldn't have done it so suddenly…" Duo bit his lips nervously.
"No… you don't have to be sorry about it"
"Arigatou gozaimasu, sensei!"
After bowing to their teacher, the karate students each made their way towards the changing rooms. Duo left early, not even waiting for Quatre to finish. Trowa and Wufei would pick the blond up so there was no need for him to wait. Grabbing his stuff in haste, he muttered quick goodbyes on his way out and went straight home to take a quick shower. It was still early when he finished drying and braiding his hair. Dressed in his traditional black clothes, he took his Mini out down a now familiar route.
Right trough the suburbs, up to a large colonial house.
"Well, to be perfectly honest, I thought you were hot the first day I met you""He! So did I! So how come we ended up fighting all this time?"
"I'm not quite sure, but one thing I do know, you are a show off, and I couldn't stand it"
Duo laughed out loud. The initial tension was finally broken. After Duo admitted to Heero with a very timid expression on his face that he liked him, things just sort of flowed naturally. They were finally happy to accept they'd had crushes on each other since they first set eyes upon the other.
"Well, I guess I've been a bit of a jerk all this time, but you sure know how to make things complicated"
"Me? Complicated?"
"Yes! I was putting the show on for you! I figured if I could impress you with my skills you'd notice me"
"I'm not a silly school girl, you know, besides, you didn't have to do that for me to notice you"
They felt silent. Duo looked at Heero, mesmerized, ecstatic to finally hear that which he'd longed for. Thunder, louder than any other made the windows rattle harder and the lights went off.
"What happened?" asked Duo.
"I don't know"
They were immersed in total darkness and Duo could only hear Heero moving towards the kitchen. After his eyes had grown accustomed to the darkness, he followed Heero's shadow upstairs.
"Where are you going?"
"For some candles"
"Whoa, candles on our first date, how romantic," said Duo in a sarcastic tone. He was sure Heero had rolled his eyes.
"Maybe it's a fuse…"
They reached what Duo supposed was Heero's bedroom. A few posters covered the walls and a large window exposed the heavy downpour outside. Heero tripped on his desk and cursed.
"Just leave it like this, you'll fix it in the morning and I'll drop by to help you out if you want. Now I think it's best if I left…"
"Now? With this rain? You'll get soaked, you'll get sick!"
"But better now before it gets any worse"
Heero looked outside the window. "I don't suppose it could get any worse"
Duo had never seen a storm like that one, at least not that he could remember of.
"But what if it doesn't stop until tomorrow?"
"Then you had better stay here"
"Won't your parents mind?"
"No, they won't, they're on a business trip and they come back next week"
Duo bit his lips. He looked at Heero and then towards the window. Well, one thing was right: the rain couldn't get any worse.
Once again, all the lights were out and no movement could be seen or heard from inside. Ever since that day, Duo hadn't seen Heero again.
"Where are you?" he whispered, leaning on his car, with his hands in his pockets and intently staring at the blue house.
Neither knew how, but it had happened. Within seconds of deciding Duo was to spend the night at Heero's house, he had pinned the younger man to the wall and was fiercely kissing him. Heero answered just as passionately guiding Duo's tongue into his mouth.
"Whoa!" Duo parted when he felt Heero reaching down for his pants. "Hasty, aren't we?"
"Sorry" Heero mumbled, flushing and parting from his spot at the wall.
Duo watched him make his way onto the bed and sit with his head down, like a told off kid. That look was adorable and he was sure he'd never get to see it outside their intimacy.
"You don't have to be sorry" Duo whispered standing in front of him, gently cupping Heero's chin with a hand and turning his face towards him. "You just startled me, that's all"
"I…"
Duo cut Heero's words short with another kiss. As they were kissing, Duo pushed Heero back on the bed. Heero was getting heavily turned on once again.
"Duo!"
Duo parted and looked at him mischievously. A grin crept up to his mouth as he ran his hand up Heero's leg, between his thighs and over Heero's hardening member. A gasp left his throat and he held his breath, focusing on what Duo was making him feel.
"It's getting tight in here" whispered Duo, rubbing Heero's pants at the crotch.
Heero was now breathing faster. Duo's hand moved up and beneath his shirt. Softly he tickled Heero sending goose bumps all over his skin. His hand went further up and found Heero's hardened nipples. With the tip of his index finger, Duo began to caress Heero's right nipple eliciting quiet moans and sharp intakes of air from the boy. Heero reached out and brought Duo's lips back onto his own.
Duo removed his hand from beneath Heero's shirt and instead removed it entirely from his torso. His skin was just as soft as Duo had ever imagined and his abdomen was perfectly toned. He had forever dreamed of touching that dark skin.
"I bet you taste like chocolate," Duo whispered.
"Huh?" Heero was too turned on to be able to come up with any response.
Duo lowered his face and began to kiss Heero's chest. Lower he went until he reached the nipples again. This time it was the tip of his tongue he used to toy with it. Heero was moaning in pleasure, tightly gripping the bed covers. While Duo's tongue had fun, his hand reached for Heero's pants. It took him a while, but the fly was finally undone. Raising himself he pulled the rest of the clothes that separated him from Heero's full uncensored glory. Having Heero naked underneath him was like the beginning of each and every single one of his wet dreams of late.
Duo was mesmerized by Heero's body. "You're perfect" he said.
Heero smiled… then it turned into a grin… with very mischievous eyes. With something that seemed a karate move, he turned the papers around. No warning came and Duo was now pinned beneath him, still startled after a few seconds.
"It's your turn" he purred at Duo's ear, "to feel the pleasure I have felt thanks to you"
Everything had happened without thinking. Duo hadn't been able to stop it, couldn't stop himself from kissing Heero in the first place, let alone what had happened afterwards. But he didn't regret it. He had found happiness, the kind he had never felt before. Now, he desperately tried to cling to it, to keep it for as long as it was possible.
That was the fourth time he sat in his car while the day slowly died away. He never took his eyes away from the house in case something happened, something that would give him hope. Ever since that day he hadn't seen Heero again, hadn't heard from him. He tried calling, sending messages to his cell phone, e-mailing him and calling at his door. There was no answer to any of his attempts. It was as if Heero had suddenly banished into thin air… and he hadn't taken Duo with him.
Thunder startled Heero. He was kind of nervous after all. Never before had he done something of the sort. It was cold inside and he had forgotten to turn on the heating system, but right now they had no need for it. Both their naked bodies were burning.
Heero eyed the milky white skin of Duo's. He had always dreamed with touching him. Caressing him. Feeling his agitated body beneath his. He lowered his face and brought the tip of his tongue out.
"Heero" moaned Duo in ecstasy when Heero licked at the tip of his manhood. "Aahh!" The moan became louder when Heero took him into his mouth.
It was too much to take whole into his mouth. Still, Heero licked and sucked driving Duo mad. Duo's hands entangled themselves on Heero's unruly hair and Heero began a slow up and down motion facilitated by the bit of cum and saliva serving as lubricants. Duo was going mad with pleasure, moaning loudly. The rain outside drowned the sound of his moans and only the lightning revealed at times the hot activities inside the room.
When Duo felt he was about to reach ecstasy he made Heero leave his position and made him lay back down on the bed. He made Heero bend his knees and then he licked his fingers.
"Let me know if it hurts and I'll stop" he told Heero.
He inserted his middle finger into Heero's asshole. Heero gasped, mainly because of the unexpected pain. Duo looked intently at Heero, wondering whether he should go back.
"I'm fine, please go on" Heero whispered.
Duo pressed further in, trying to ignore Heero's gasps of pain. When his whole finger was inside Heero released his contained breath. His body slowly relaxed as it got used to Duo's finger inside. When he felt Heero relax, Duo began to move his finger outside and then back in. Heero moaned this time although he wasn't entirely sure if he was feeling pleasure or pain.
He was just about to leave when a flicker of light at Heero's bedroom made him turn around once again. He rushed to the door and began to knock.
"Heero! I know you're in there, open the door!"
It took a while but he finally heard the locks open. Covered in darkness, Heero held the door wide open for Duo to come in. He looked disgruntled and dishevelled, like he had just woken up, which he probably had.
"What are you doing here?" he asked in a hoarse voice to the braided guy standing at his hall.
"I…" Duo hadn't expected such a welcome. "I came to see if you were ok…"
"I'm fine"
"But…"
"I said I was fine, now please leave"
Duo was now confused.
"What's the matter with you?"
"Nothing's the matter with me! What, you thought that because we had sex one night I'd be madly in love with you?"
"But you said…"
"To hell with that!"
Something was terribly wrong, Duo knew Heero wasn't being himself.
"Are you sure of this?"Heero looked up at Duo who was kneeling between his spread legs. Heero raised himself off the bed and pulled Duo down for another kiss.
"I love you Duo, I always have… if I want this to happen with anyone, then that one is you"
Duo kissed Heero once more while he bended his lover's knees and positioned himself. It was a bit tight at the beginning, but Duo was lubbed up enough to penetrate Heero without much pain. Heero clutched Duo's arms tightly when he felt him enter. Slow at first, Duo began to move. Little by little he began to move faster, inside and out. Pressing into Heero with force, pressing into his g-spot sending Heero over the top, making him moan and squirm in pleasure.
Duo grabbed Heero's member and rubbed at the same time as his strokes. Heero had never felt such pleasure before. Soon he was going to loose control. Having Duo inside him was what he had ever wanted since he met the braided American. His hips were rocking back and forth, adding to the motion. Both were soon gasping and Heero had dug his fingernails into the mattress.
Faster and faster, stronger than before, Duo pushed into Heero. He felt he was about to come soon and Heero seemed like he couldn't hold on any longer. They had forgotten all about the rain, who seemed to have quieted down for the lovers. A flash of lightning lit them and Heero could see Duo's face right above him.
"I love you"
Along with thunder, cries of ecstasy and a reached orgasm rattled the night.
"So that was it?" yelled Duo, slowly loosing his own temper, "just a casual fuck? Is that all that meant to you, Heero Yuy?"
Heero winced at the sound of his full name. He turned his back on Duo.
"TELL ME!" insisted Duo.
He grabbed Heero by the shoulders and roughly turned him around.
"TELL ME, I WANT TO HEAR IT, TELL ME IT WAS JUST A CASUAL FUCK!"
Heero couldn't stare into those violet eyes. Minutes went by, Duo breathing hard and fast, tightly clutching Heero. A car drove up to the parkway and keys were heard right outside the door. Duo let go of Heero just in time before the rest of the Yuys entered their house.
"Oh, Heero dear, we didn't know you had any visitors" said Heero's mom extending a hand to Duo. He shook it and introduced himself.
"I suppose he's come to say good bye" said Heero's dad.
"Good bye?" blurted Duo out when Heero's parents were out of sight atop the stairs.
"…I'm leaving for Japan. My parents were born there and my Dad was transferred to his company's branch in Kyoto"
Duo stared with eyes wide open.
"Duo… I'm sorry for what I said… I just couldn't… I had to…" Heero's voice broke off and he stared down at the floor. Duo understood.

"Duo, you sure you're alright? It's been a month already since Yuy left, try to cheer up a bit"
Duo said nothing. Quatre sighed.
"Come on, please Duo. You used to like nothing better than practicing karate, can't that cheer you up?"
Still no answer.
"Hey!"
Quatre threw a punch at Duo.
"Come on! We're in the middle of class here, you have to pay attention"
Quatre kept attacking Duo, forcing him to defend himself. The fight became more heated and Duo finally became fully involved, momentarily forgetting about his problems.
"Class!" their sensei called out to them. "I would like you all to welcome someone back"
"Welcome back?" wondered Duo out loud.
"Hello mina-san"
Everyone rushed to welcome the boy back. Duo stood back, surprise written all over his face.
"Hi Duo, ready for another round?"
"You're back?"
"I convinced my parents of allowing me to come back… so, what do you say" Heero winked his eye mischievously.
"Anytime kid… let's see if you can handle this!"

A/N: Yes, I know, lynch me and burn me at the stake with green wood. I've been gone for ages, that much I know for sure. Believe me, university leaves you no time for a life, let alone writing. Still, I'd like to apologize to all of you guys out there, faithfully awaiting my return. I'm so sorry it took forever to write this, but I had to trade inspiration for studies.

Anyways, I'd like to thank a friend of mine from school (you know who you are ;P) for knocking some sense into me and reminding me of my lost passion.
