Yo! So I just finished writing this this morning (at my night job). I thought about adding a lemon in here, but couldn't quite place it right. So later. Sorry guys.

Also, I while Suzu/Lulu is the MAIN/REAL pairing, I have a very large soft spot for the Unholy Trinity Pairing. For those who don't know, that's C.C./Suzu/Lulu. For the time being, that will be the 'lemon' pairing in this story.

In addition, many have asked how Lelouch got to the past. To be honest, I hadn't even thought about it before writing the first chapter (I figured no one would call me on it ^_^; ). That said, within the next week or so, I will be putting up a new story that will act as the prequel to this that explains it. For reasons that will be explained in that story Lulu will have no memories of those events.

Be warned, unless I get reviews saying that you all want otherwise, the prequel will probably be a torture fic!

Now, ONWARD!

"Well, what now?" Suzaku asked. They had just entered Lelouch's bedroom in the academy's clubhouse. The black haired boy sighed and nuzzled the area where Suzaku's neck and right shoulder met.

"I don't know," he murmured, "perhaps I should exhaust myself." Suzaku chuckled softly, let Lelouch down from his back and turned around to face him. He gently brushed his lover's bangs away and leaned closer to press their foreheads together. Both smiled warmly.

Lelouch reached up and locked his arms behind Suzaku's neck. The brunette tilted his head and planted soft kisses along his prince's jaw line and neck. The prince hummed in satisfaction.

Lelouch's eyes shot open suddenly as a realization hit him. He cursed under his breath and pulled away, eyes darting around frantically.

"What?! What is it?" Suzaku asked, panicking at the fact that Lelouch was panicking.

"C.C." he half stated, half called out. The Britannian began to search the room, opening doors and checking closets.

"Are you serious? She's been living with you that long?" he asked. Lelouch nodded absently and climbed onto the windowsill.

"I swear, if she left again, I'm gonna – " he froze mid sentence. The boy turned his head up and sniffed the air. His head turned sharply towards the bed. He saw a flash of yellow. Growling in annoyance, he stalked over to the bed, knelt down and took a look under it.

"Hello C.C." he muttered when violet eyes met gold. She lay on a large Cheese-kun plush, her head resting atop its. Emerald colored hair was tied back in a long French braid. Upon further inspection, there was a juice box and a half empty box of pizza under there as well. She'd been there a while.

"Why are you under the bed?" Lelouch asked, unsure whether to be confused or annoyed. She hummed thoughtfully.

"You told me not to let myself be seen." The prince scowled.

"Since when do you listen to what I say?" he asked. Her eyes shifted to look past him at the other pair of shoes in the room.

"Since you started bringing boys home." She snickered, "Slut."

At the time the witch couldn't be sure if the apple red color of Lelouch's face was an indication of rage or embarrassment. What mattered was that he hadn't bothered to deny her statement. Yet. And by the time he did, it would be too late.

Suzaku knelt to help the woman up out from her hiding place as Lelouch stood up and sat cross legged on the bed, looking like he wanted to murder her then drown himself, if only to escape this nonsense.

Now standing, C.C. gave the soldier a good once over. As to be expected, Lelouch had good taste. Very good taste.

"Hey C.C. Do you remember me?" he asked. She blinked slowly.

"The soldier boy from Shinjuku Ghetto." She stated with a shrug as she sat down on the bed. Suzaku frowned, looking mildly disappointed but not surprised. Lelouch crawled over to C.C.'s side, having regained his composure. He took her face in his hands.

"May I try something?" he asked quietly. She tilted her head in confusion but nodded. He kissed her gently on the lips. Suzaku watched as the immortal's eyes widened and slowly rolled back, the crimson geass symbol glittering on her forehead. Lelouch let out a pained groan in their kiss, his own eyes growing wide. The geass symbol appeared in both eyes now, the symbol's wings flapping erratically. The 2 slowly pulled apart, each gasping softly for air.

Suzaku took a seat on the bed next to Lelouch and wrapped his arms around the slim frame. The prince closed his eyes slowly and relaxed weakly into his knight's form.

"You guys okay?" Suzaku asked quietly, casting glances back and forth between the 2 geass holders. Lelouch simply nodded into his lover's chest. Rejuvenating two sets of memories and having the uncontrolled geass restored took a lot out of him. C.C. looked over at the boys and gave them a small smile. She reached out and cupped Suzaku's cheek. She pinched it.

"I didn't realize how adorable you were back then." She murmured. The witch slowly ran a finger down the length of the soldier's chest, whistling in sheer appreciation. Suzaku blinked slowly and looked away, smiling over a slight blush.

"Pedophile." Lelouch muttered from the embrace. He turned his head to look up at her.

"You know, it isn't good to be robbing cradles." He said with a smirk, turning his whole body to face her and adjust himself into Suzaku's lap. C.C. shrugged.

"I like to think of it as you two robbing a grave." She drawled back, matching his smirk. Both boys rolled their eyes, accompanied by a chuckle from the brunette.

"You'll get your grave…" Lelouch murmured absently, almost too soft to be heard. He left Suzaku's embrace and wrapped his arms around the green haired girl.

"I'll give you a future," he whispered, "a future that ends…I swear." C.C.'s expression softened and she buried her face in his hair.

"I know. Only a demon could take a witch's curse." She said.

"No."

Both heads shot up to look at the crossed legged brunette. If looks could kill…well, C.C. certainly wouldn't have a problem anymore. Lelouch frowned.

"What?" he asked.

"I'm not letting you do that." Suzaku turned to C.C. "Sorry, but he's screwed up enough as it is without adding immortality to his problems." C.C.'s eyes widened slightly at his words before schooling her features into a normal stare. The older boy scowled.

"That ISN'T your decision to make." He growled out. Suzaku stared impassively down at him, unaffected by the dark glare.

"Fine then," he turned to C.C. again, "give me a geass so I can take your code myself. That is what you're concerned about, right?" Lelouch's expression went from shocked to absolutely LIVID.

"LIKE HELL IT IS!" he barked. "I am NOT about to let you do that to yourself!" Suzaku raised an eyebrow.

"Correct me if I'm wrong, but I don't think it's your decision to make." He murmured, "After all, aren't you the one who ordered me to live?" he stated. Lelouch's eyes widened at the harsh blow, eyes welling up with angry tears. His whole posture suddenly became laxed.

"Please, please don't do that to yourself. Don't do that to me." He pleaded desperately.

Suzaku's eyes softened. He lay on the bed and pulled his lover down so that they both were lying on their sides face t face.

"I can't let you do that for the same reason you can't let me." He soothed. Lelouch's eyes narrowed, tears running over the bridge of his nose to join those that stained the sheets at the other side of his face. Suzaku cupped the tear-streaked face. He stared into Lelouch's eyes, his own calm but determined.

"I don't want to lose you again… to live in a world you only exist in." He closed his eyes and kissed the prince's forehead.

"And I won't let you suffer mere existence alone. You deserve the happiness that you strive to give everyone else." He trailed kisses down Lelouch face until he reached his lips, where he paused.

"I am your knight. To serve, to love, to cherish, I'm yours; to serve, to love, to cherish, you're mine." He smirked against Lelouch's lips. "And I won't let you leave me now." He opened his eyes to stare into his lover's, "Give me the chance to stand by you. So no matter how long we exist, we'll always have a chance to live."

Lelouch just stared at the boy wide eyed for a moment. His face slowly flushed a deep red and he turned to bury his face in the bed sheets. Suzaku blinked in confusion. C.C.'s hands fell to her lap from where they had been covering her mouth in shock.

"Did you just…propose…to him?" she asked slowly. Suzaku tilted his head, considered his words for a moment before gathering his lover in his arms and cuddling him.

"Yes. Yes I did." He said happily, trying hard to get the flustered prince to meet his gaze again. That wasn't going to happen anytime soon. C.C. giggled in excitement. She was rather fond of weddings and Lelouch was going to be wearing a dress at his. The wave of glee she felt at this thought quickly died though.

"How?" she asked quietly. Both boys looked up.

"How what?" Lelouch asked.

"How will you both…remain together?" Lelouch stared up at Suzaku curiously. The other teen looked away.

"V.V.'s code." he stated uncertainly. Clearly this plan hadn't been thought out. But that was to be expected. Suzaku wasn't an idiot my any means, but he certainly wasn't Lelouch.

"I doubt he'd just hand it over." She muttered. Lelouch shrugged.

"Didn't my father just steal it from him?" he asked. The witch rolled her golden eyes.

"Charles had had years of physical and mental strength under his belt prior to that." She said.

"It's fine." Suzaku said, "We'll just deal with that when the time comes. We still have a rebellion to deal with first." The other two nodded. C.C. glanced at from one boy to the other before looking away entirely.

"I'll going to give him the geass now. Alright?" Suzaku nodded. Lelouch took a slow deep breath, and then nodded as well. The knight and the witch climbed off the bed and stood facing one another. C.C. took Suzaku's hands in her own and closed her eyes.

"To you I grant the power of the knight. One with the strength to protect and the duty to serve his lord must also have the power to lead not only an army but their charge as well. Controlling others requires one to control their own heart." He heard her speak into his mind. "Suzaku Kururugi, do you accept this contract?" Suzaku closed his eyes.

"Yes."

"One with the power of the knight is destined for loneliness, even within a crowd of thousands. Is this your wish?"

"It is." He whispered aloud.

"So be it." Suzaku opened his eyes, the newly formed geass symbol flexing its wings. Lelouch watched them in anticipation. What now?

"Well?" the prince asked. Suzaku's eyes shifted to meet his. He smiled warmly and a white sphere of light that only he and C.C. could see enveloped the three of them.

Lelouch's eyes widened and he felt the tale tell pull of geass on his mind, the rims of his irises glowing crimson. He was hit by a wave of emotion, eyes becoming half lidded as he stood. A feeling he couldn't consciously think about overfilled him, seeming to come out in waves.

Lelouch smiled slowly, fondly, as he strolled over to where his lover stood, hips swinging subtlety. He reached the brunette and pressed his body against the younger teen, rubbing, nuzzling as much of him as he could. Suzaku blinked in surprise.

And it was gone. The geass in Suzaku's eyes as well as the feeling that had filled him. Lelouch blinked rapidly a couple of times.

"What the fuck was that?" he asked.

"He can manipulate emotions. Inspire rage, loyalty, sadness…lust." C.C. answered with a grin. Lelouch looked back and forth from on to the other. He took Suzaku by the collar of his uniform.

"Never again. You hear me?" he growled out. Suzaku merely smiled and reactivated the power. Before the Britannian could even react, he was overcome with a set of hard, manic giggling. But it was gone as quickly as it came. Lelouch glared bloody murder up at the Honorary Britannian as he tried to catch his breath.

"Right. Sorry. Never again." The brunette agreed with a grin.

"Entertaining, isn't it?" C.C. asked. Suzaku let out a happy sigh.

"Oh so very."

Oh dear. That was kinda shorter than the last chapter huh? Sigh. Sorry. The story will actually move on next chapter, I hope. Also, I didn't realize before that Clovis was already dead by this part of the story. DAMN. I kinda liked him on some level. I'm tempted to just totally disregard that fact but that would mess up the flow of a lot of events wouldn't it? (Suzaku wouldn't have even met Euphie or entered Ashford).

La Sigh.
