Chapter Thirty-One: Ready, Set, GO!
Kiku was a little nervous about approaching Ludwig like this, but he needed to do it. Ludwig was the One, the One he wanted to share his most valued possession with. Besides, all his wounds were healed (just got the bandages off yesterday) so he was absolutely ready for some… intimacy.
And he had heard the chimes outside Ludwig's window and had grown new confidence in this strange mission. Besides, if Lovino and Feliciano could do it, then surely Kiku had to give up his virginity one of these days. (Not saying Feli or Lovi were virgins to begin with before… last night.)
Kiku knocked carefully on the door and who should open it but Gilbert. Oh no… this might be harder than I thought… Kiku thought.
"Aww… LITTLE BROTHER! YOUR LITTLE KIKI BIRD IS HERE!" Gilbert shouted, nearly bursting Kiku's ear drums.
Kiku put his hands over his ears cutely just as Ludwig came down the stairs.
"Kiku, what are you doing here?" Ludwig asked, now ushering the smaller Asian male inside.
"I just… wanted to talk," Kiku said, nervous now that he knew Gilbert was here. Oh, Eliza… if you're a psychic, please here my call and come take Gilbert away… he prayed. The wind-chime tinkled lightly in a slow, spring breeze, as if answering his prayer. It neither soothed nor worried him, however.
Ludwig took him to the kitchen, and Gilbert went back up to his room.
"What's up?" Ludwig asked, knowing that Kiku wanted some… ah, privacy.
Kiku looked down at his shoes for a brief moment before he decided it was best to look at his boyfriend's face. "I… I'm…" he felt like he was choking on his words.
"You're… moving? You're… something to do with your girls?" Ludwig prompted. "If you tell me you're pregnant, I might have to pitch a fit," Ludwig added, trying to make it into a joke. His usual hardness seemed to melt with Kiku around, that was for sure.
"No! No! Nothing like that… I'm just…" Kiku pouted his lips a little and took Ludwig's large hand up in his two tiny ones, "… I'm ready."
Ludwig was slightly confused, "Ready for what?"
"Ready… uhh… Ludwig. You're… the One…" Kiku replied.
Ludwig thought for a moment, then his cheeks flushed when he finally got it. "You… want to take this relationship to the next level?"
Kiku simply nodded, his cheeks reddening at an almost dangerous degree.
Ludwig smiled, now placing his big hand over Kiku's so that he was holding both of Kiku's hands. He leaned down slowly and kissed Kiku. It was Kiku's first kiss with Ludwig, and as chaste as it was, Kiku felt himself put his arms around Ludwig's neck to deepen the kiss. After a few moments, Ludwig pulled away. "If we want to do this, then we're going to have to get rid of Gilbert."
Kiku took his phone out, "The Good Slash Forever Fangirl Alliance can help with that…" he replied, dialing the President's number.
"What?" Elizabeta asked, "I'm in the middle of a meeting!"
"Check your caller ID next time, Eliza," Kiku quipped.
"Kiku, darling! How are you?"
"I'm fine. Am I calling at a bad time?"
"Well… the girls and I are having a meeting about if we should add 'and Femmslash' to our name, but otherwise, no. Why?"
"I'm with Ludwig at his house and… we need Gilbert-"
"Oh. Oh!" Eilza said. Kiku could hear her grinning at the other end. "You need me to come and take Gilbert away so you two can… consummate your relationship?"
Kiku blushed, "That would be very nice if you would…"
"Fine. But you owe me."
"I knew you would say that. I'll have something for you on your birthday that will knock your socks off."
"Thanks darling. I'll be there in a jiffy!"
It was about twenty minutes before the Hungarian-born girl arrived at the door. Gilbert was surprised, but pleased, that she was there. He smiled and kissed her softly before she pulled him outside, "Come on. I promised Katyusha and Natalia that I would go shopping for brides-maid dresses with her and a few of the other girls. The whole club is Kat's brides-maids, can you believe it? And only Toris and Matthew are Nat's best men. But I like the small wedding feel. Come on, I'll buy you dinner afterwords!" Eliza said, dragging the albino out to her car, winking at Kiku and Ludwig.
After a few moments of light shock, Ludwig got up and closed the door, beckoning Kiku to follow him up the stairs. He vowed in his head to be gentle with Kiku, as Kiku was still a virgin, and anything heavy might scare him.
Kiku got up from the couch, blushing still, and took Ludwig's hand, allowing him to lead him up the stairs and into his bedroom. Ludwig closed his bedroom door and Kiku stood there dumbly, the back of his legs against the foot of the bed.
Ludwig chuckled at how shy and inexperienced Kiku was, and approached him very carefully, putting his hands on Kiku's hips as he kissed Kiku's lips very, very carefully. Kiku once more put his arms around Ludwig's neck and deepened the kiss.
Ludwig moved his hands up under Kiku's shirt, causing Kiku to hiss out softly, breaking the kiss. Ludwig smiled as he lifted Kiku's shirt over his shoulders and threw it off to the side. Kiku was still blushing as he looked over his torso before moving his dark eyes to Ludwig's chest. He put his hands on Ludwig's top button and shakily tried to unbutton the top button. His hands were shaking so bad that Ludwig finally, still with a hint of a smile on his face, put his hands over Kiku's and helped him unbutton all the buttons on the shirt. Together, they cast the shirt off to the side, and kissed each other once more.
Ludwig suddenly lowered both of them down on the bed, carefully straddling the smaller male under him. Kiku blushed as they pulled away for breath, but then again, he had wanted this.
"I love you, Ludwig," Kiku said quickly, as his lips were vacant and he felt Ludwig's hands at the button of his jeans.
"I know," Ludwig replied, kissing Kiku's jaw-line just as he slid Kiku's jeans down, dropping them next to the bed. "I love you too."
I'm such a tease, aren't I?
I probably should warn you that have the sequel to this thing already planned out. 'Sequel' being the operative word. It's more a continuation of the same setting, only I'm basing in Fou with everyone who lives there instead of Monde, were Chanson d'Hiver has been staged. Anyway, the 'sequel' is called The Last Stand of Toris Lorinaitis, and it focuses on Lithuania and his budding relationship with Poland. Should be good. Oh, and copious amounts of Yao/Ivan and another big gay wedding (not tellin' you whose!) at the end. Because, really, where would my stories be without a big gay wedding?
Hope to see you there!
Also, please review~!
