THE CAVE: CONTINUUM

Part Twenty-Three

Fingers intertwine. Kanda lifts Allen's bare arms over his head pressing his lover against the door – the door clicks shut. Kanda's burning lips crushes Allen's in a passionate, fiery dual of tongues – slipping and sliding inside each other's mouths. Allen's head bangs against the door in an intoxicating rapture when Kanda's lips slides down assaulting his neck – sucking, kissing and nipping him fervidly.

"Leave your arms up," Kanda's sultry voice commands Allen.

Releasing his fingers, they slide down lightly caressing his lover's sides stopping at the top of Allen's pants. Kanda unbuckles Allen's belt, his fingers fumbling with the zipper until he finally opens his pants. A moan escapes Allen's lips when Kanda's soft mouth and tongue envelops his taut nipple swirling his tongue around it and sucking on it. Kanda has taken possession of Allen's body. Overwhelming emotions take hold, no longer able to stand – he slides to the floor.

Kanda quickly gathers his husband into his arms and brings him to their bed. He tugs Allen's pants off and flings them. Allen watches while Kanda peels off his wet clothing, dropping them where he stood and climbs on the bed beside him. Kanda's warm hand caresses Allen's stomach looking at his husband with a slight smile and his stormy eyes flashing with lust.

Allen wraps his arms around Kanda's neck pulling him down, kissing him feverishly opening the door to hot passion once again. His body squirms in delight from the rushing blaze pulsating throughout his body, wanting more from his lover. A deep, low, almost inaudible groan is heard in response to Kanda's caresses.

He hugs his husband closer nibbling on his ear, blowing his hot breath on the wetness he's left behind, sending a shiver through Kanda. Hot flames engulf the young lovers, skin rubbing together, soft and velvety – stirring deeper emotions up and out of them.

Allen tries not to succumb to his own needs wanting to satisfy his husband's needs as well, but if Kanda keeps up those incredible movements with his mouth, tongue and hands, he won't be able to hold off for much long.

"Kanda … going to come," Allen groans, arching his back.

"Not yet my love," Kanda murmurs in his lover's ear.

Their lovemaking has both of them moaning in pleasure from the on slaughter of ecstasy, now picking up, riding on the edge of tantalizing sex, the waves intensifying; Allen feels he'll spill over at any moment.

"Alright, I can't hold out much longer either. I've wanted you so badly all day … ah," Kanda says, feeling Allen tight and hot. Allen's soft, warm hands slides up Kanda's back massaging his way down to knead his lover's buttocks, pulling him in even deeper.

"Coming Allen," Kanda grunts out. "Come with me."

"Fuck me … harder … I love you," Allen shouts out – both of them tumbling over the top, lights bursting riding the waves of euphoria.

Kanda collapses on top of Allen, both panting hard, sweating from their coupling. He rolls off Allen, both looking radiant in the afterglow of their lovemaking. Kanda finds Allen's hand and clutches it. He reaches for the blanket throwing it over both of them for the night. Allen rolls onto his side wiggling his way closer to his husband's body – curling up.

"That was my way of saying thank you for my gift," Kanda says, tightening his arm around Allen.

"Wow, I should give you a gift more often," Allen replies, lightly kissing the side of Kanda's chest.

"Goodnight, Yuu," Allen whispers.

"Goodnight, Allen. I love you," Kanda whispers back, closing his eyes ready for sleep. After their vigorous lovemaking, both fall to sleep immediately.

Allen hasn't had a good night's sleep for awhile and even though this bed is very comfortable, when comparing it to the hard cold ground they had been sleeping on, he still doesn't get a full night's sleep. He's wide awake in the wee morning hours and the sun would soon be rising, but Allen couldn't fall back to sleep.

He has lain long enough it has become boring. Allen yawns, stretching his body, sliding up against his husband's warm back, rubbing skin to skin, trying to wake Kanda in a subtle way. His husband gives a low growl, turning over to face Allen. His eyes are still closed and he throws his arm across his lover's chest pulling him in close then wraps his leg around Allen's.

"Go back to sleep, Bean Sprout," Kanda's low deep voice grumbles. "You never wake up this early unless I pull your ass out of bed, now go back to sleep."

"But we're in our new home and I'd like to see the outside. I'm sure we have our work cut out for us. Don't you want to see the rest of the place?" he asks, softly, hoping to rouse his husband up and out of bed.

Kanda nestles his face into Allen's soft white hair inhaling his scent. Allen turns over to face Kanda and looks at his beautiful lover then presses his lips to Kanda's. Kanda opens one eye to look at him and Allen lightly brushes his lips again to his lover. Kanda gives a heavy sigh.

"Okay, I'll get up with you," Kanda grumbles, turning onto his back stretching. Kanda looks at Allen who is now sitting up in bed with a wide grin, happy Kanda is awake.

"Bean Sprout, this is the first time since disembarking off the ship we've had time to sleep in. It's hard to believe you want to get out of bed this early in the morning," Kanda says, grabbing Allen's arm pulling him on top of him, hugging his lover.

"Well, if it makes you feel anyway better, I too am surprised. I can't believe I'm wide awake and raring to go," Allen says, between kisses he's planting on Kanda's face. Kanda pushes Allen off him and sits up.

"I have to go to the bathroom," Kanda says, standing up. Allen jumps on his back, piggyback style.

"Take me with you I have to go too," Allen says, being playful and hanging on tightly.

"You're too much, Bean Sprout," Kanda says, wrapping his arms around Allen's legs to hold him on then walks to the bathroom across the hallway.

"Funny you want me give you a ride now, but back on the ship you had fought me in giving you a piggyback ride up to the infirmary," Kanda says, teasing.

"Let's not go there today … so giddy up Kanda," Allen whispers into Kanda's ear tickling it with his tongue.

"Watch it or I'll carry you back to bed and ravish you again," Kanda says, gruffly, smirking, glad Allen is feeling better.

After the bathroom break, the young couple manages to dress and walk downstairs. Kanda starts putting together a small breakfast for the two of them while Allen took care of the food on the countertop. When Kanda sits the plate of food in front of a starving Allen, he practically inhales his food. Interesting enough it didn't take Kanda too long finishing his either.

"Let's go out back to see what's there," Kanda says, putting the dishes in the sink then follows Allen into the next room.

Kanda opens the large sliding door in the dining room. Allen and he step out onto a screened in area which beyond that is a small deck extending out over a large pond. Timcanpy sneaks around the two and flies out through the door soaring around having a great time checking out his own areas of interest.

They look out over the landscape envisioning what a serene place this must had been at one time before Komui had to leave. Kanda steps in back of Allen putting his arms around his husband's waist pulling him close. He places his head on Allen's shoulder.

"This could be beautiful once again, Bean Sprout, with a little hard work," he whispers into Allen's ear.

"Yes Kanda, it could," Allen replies, and Kanda kisses his neck.

"Let's look around to see what else is here," Kanda says, releasing Allen and taking his hand.

"I wonder what's across the pond," Allen says, curious why a bridge is made.

At the end of the deck there is a rock wall formation to prevent the pond water from spilling into another smaller pool of water which looks like a bathing area. Large flat stones make up a wonderful patio around the pool of water. Kanda squats down putting his hand into very warm water.

"It's a hot spring," Kanda says, with a devilish grin.

"I'll be out here every night soaking – with you of course," Allen grins, giving Kanda a wily look.

"You're on for tonight," Kanda says, grabbing his squealing lover hugging him.

"Someone did a great job of building this bridge, it looks solid. Let's see what is on the other side," Kanda says, taking Allen's hand, leading him onto the Japanese arch bridge.

The bridge's arch isn't too high, just enough to be up off the water by five feet or so. It is wide enough to accommodate Allen and Kanda walking comfortably side by side. They stop for a brief moment and lean against its rails looking out over the pond.

Kanda gently tugs on Allen's hand and they finish walking across the bridge. Once on the other side, there are four cherry trees, ready to blossom, and stand in a row a few feet back from the edge of the pond. Tall green grass stands on each side of a stone path and around the trees needing to be cut down or mowed.

"Kanda, I wonder where this path lead, it continues around that group of evergreens. Looks like they provide privacy for whatever is around the end," Allen says, sliding his hand out of Kanda's and quickens his pace to see what's there.

"Oh, my!" Allen exclaims at the sight of the cutest huts he's ever seen. There are a couple of square huts of good size built together, but one sits back and to the right of the first hut, almost like an addition.

"Well now, Komui did mention this to me," Kanda says, looking at the beautiful exterior.

Looking around the grounds, they're happy to see it has been landscaped at one time. All it would need is a little cleaning up. Strolling to the back of the huts there's a deck sprawling out over yet another smaller pond which has its own hot spring pool. This pond has more lotus and water lilies adding to the beauty as well as a Japanese stone lantern sitting on a flat rock across the pond.

"Let's look inside," Allen's says, grabbing and tugging on Kanda's hand to follow him onto the deck to go inside.

"The doors unlocked," Allen says, stepping inside of the dwelling. Kanda goes over to the shades and draws them open.

"This is so cute, Kanda!" Allen exclaims, twirling around in the spacious room.

"I love how the living room, dining room and kitchen are all in one big area," Allen says, surprised at how large it is inside. From the outside it didn't look this big.

Allen scurries down the hallway to the back of the house where there is a large addition and Allen goes into the master bedroom while Kanda looks inside of the other bedroom.

"Wow Kanda! Check this out! There's a sliding door in here that opens up onto the deck and pond!" Allen shouts, unable to stop the excitement bubbling out of him.

"Did you notice there are two full bathrooms in this house?" Kanda asks, coming into the room to see what Allen finds so exciting.

Walking out onto the deck he finds Allen looking out over the pond. He turns to face him, he's radiating with happiness that makes Kanda's heart race as he looks at his beautiful husband.

"I see there's a hot springs out here too," Kanda smirks, grabbing Allen into his arms, swinging him around in a dance. The house has everything a young couple would need for a home.

"Kanda, this house isn't as big as the main house, but it's a lot cozier," Allen says, his eyes shining with excitement and joy.

"I guess this is the guest house Komui was talking about. It's one of the places he suggested we may like to live instead of the big main house. What do you think, Bean Sprout? Should we move over here as our new home?" Kanda asks, still holding his husband waiting for an answer.

"Would you be happy over here, Yu?" Allen asks, looking into those incredible sparkling cobalt blue eyes. He knows Kanda is just as happy with the place as he is.

"Allen, I'll be happy wherever we choose to settle down. All I need is you in my life. This place would be perfect for us. It's very private from the main house, so if anyone ever lived over there they would never hear our screams of orgasms," Kanda says, teasing Allen.

"Kanda!" Allen exclaims in a mock shock, then smiles shyly.

"I love it when you call me Allen, and yes, let's make this our home, if you're sure Komui wouldn't mind," Allen says, blushing wrapping his arms around Kanda's neck.

"Then let's seal it with a kiss," Kanda says, gently taking Allen's lips kissing him.

"Well, I guess we'll start by cleaning up this place. We can still stay at the big house until this one is ready," Kanda says, satisfied with their decision.

They sit on the sofa and talk eagerly about where they should start and what they want to do to freshen up the place. The list turns out to be long, but they both decide they would clean the inside and air out the place.

Allen wants to paint the walls a fresh coat of paint as well as cleaning everything and Kanda is willing to let him do whatever he wants. He's just happy seeing Allen having fun with this and smiling.

"I guess it's a good thing we got up early. Let's see if there are any cleaning supplies in either house," Allen says.

"Well Allen, we'll make this place our paradise," Kanda says, with his arm around Allen's shoulders while they both relax on the sofa gazing out the window at the pond.
