What's Not to Use?

Chapter 9: Renewal
Pairings: 2x4, implied 1x3
~*~

Steadily, Duo carried his precious Quatre to the large bed in the cabin. Laying him down gently on the cool silk sheets, Duo silently marveled over how his dream was finally coming true. Not wanting to waste a moment in fear that it could very well still be a dream, he sat next to the blonde and smoothed back the messy blonde locks. Seeing the longing in the bright aqua eyes, Duo thought that it was time for them to seal their love.

Leaning over, he placed a soft kiss on the pale lips. \"I\'ll be right back, love... I need to get something to make this easier for you.\" he whispered softly.

Quatre nodded faintly, the burning light in his eyes growing by the second.

Getting up, Duo quickly made his way over to the dresser, and opened the top drawer. Reaching in, he pulled two things out before rushing back to his future lover\'s side. Not letting Quatre see them, he sat both items on the bedside table before returning to the beautiful blonde. Duo climbed up on top of Quatre and straddled his hips, then leaned over, kissing and sucking lightly at the pale slender throat.

Quatre practically purred at the teasing sensations as he felt them travel up to his jaw. He then felt hands begin to roam under his shirt, and let out a small moan as they glided across his skin. Reaching out his hands, Quatre began to rub down Duo\'s back, and down to his thighs, encouraging him gently to continue.

Duo pulled at Quatre\'s shirt until it was half way off. Taking the hint, Quatre sat up a little so Duo could pull it off, and Duo promptly threw it over his shoulder, not caring where it landed. Seeing new skin exposed, the braided boy attempted to cover every inch of it with kisses. As he went, he was amazed at how sweet Quatre\'s skin tasted, almost like powdered sugar. Soon his mouth found a soft rosy nipple. Taking it into his mouth, he sucked on it softly, loving the light gasps and moans that escaped Quatre\'s mouth. After the nub of flesh became hard in his mouth, Duo released it, and turned his attention to the other one, but this time, he bit it gently.

Quatre gasped loudly when he felt the sensitive area being tortured so, but he wanted more. His body was welcoming every touch that Duo offered, so was his mind, and even his soul. He wanted so much more, that the thought of it made him painfully aroused. \"Duo..\" he gasped out.

Stopping the instant he heard his name, Duo looked up at the blonde\'s face, hoping that he was alright. \"What, love?\" he asked, willingly to do anything for him, even stop.

His aqua eyes were beginning to cloud over with the building gentle pleasure, and his voice was escaping him. \"Please, Duo... Take me.. I want to be yours.... Make me yours....\" he panted out desperately.

Duo would have liked nothing better, but he still had to be sure. \"You want this?\" he asked, struggling to keep his control.

\"Yes... But will you do one thing for me?\" he asked softly.

\"Yes, whatever it is.\" Duo answered, not caring what it was as long as it made Quatre happy.

\"Take down your hair... Please?\" Quatre pleaded, wanting to feel the long strands of silky hair in his fingers, feel it around him.

Duo had to chuckle lightly. \"Of course I will.\" Quickly, he reached for the end of his braid, and pulled off the restricting band. Shaking his head a few times, the long chestnut locks unraveled, and fell in place long his back. \"Better?\"

Quatre nodded happily. \"Perfect, now please, Duo....\" he pleaded again, grabbing at the long hair.

Nodding, Duo moved from on top of the blonde, and hooked a finger under the waist band of the sweat paints. Knowing that the blonde didn\'t have anything on under them, he quickly began tugging of the last barrier between Quatre\'s beautiful body and his hungry eyes. Slim hips lifted of the bed for a moment to make taking off the pants easier, and once again Duo threw the garment over his shoulder. Finally, the creature of light and beauty was revealed to Duo, and he thought that nothing would ever come close to matching it.

Now knowing that he was exposed to Duo, and what was to come, Quatre wasn\'t the least bit afraid. He wanted this more than anything, to be taken by the one he truly loved, and who loved him. He felt Duo\'s warm hands slide across his skin, setting off little ripples of fire through his body. Then, aqua eyes shot open, and he choked on a gasp as he felt something hot and moist at the base of his hardening shaft. Arching his back, he wanted more contact with it, his body silently begging for relief.

Seeing Quatre strain his body for more of the simple touch, Duo decided to grant his wish. Grabbing the base of Quatre\'s building erection, he leaned over and took the tip of it in his mouth. Duo felt himself harden more at the sound of the blissful cry that was ripped from the angelic lips, and, wanting to hear it again, began sucking gently, tasting the few drops of pre-cum that gathered in his mouth. Soon, he felt fingers running through his long hair, fisting in it, but not to the point where it would pull. He nibbled and teased, pulling more cries out of the blonde, and he was loving every second of it.

Quatre was loving the sweet torture too, but he wanted to find his release with his love inside him. \"Duo.... \" he gasped out. In an instant, the wet heat left him, and, when he opened his eyes, he saw violet ones staring back at him.

\"What is it, Quatre?\" he asked, hoping nothing was wrong.

\"Duo... Please... Take me now... I don\'t want to wait...\" Quatre whispered, wanting Duo to claim him.

Duo placed a soft kiss on his lips. \"Then I won\'t make you wait much longer....\" Reaching out, he got one of the items off of the bedside table.

Soon Quatre could smell lavender in the air. Taking a deep breath of the scent, the blonde relaxed into the bed, feeling safer than he had ever felt before. Shortly, he felt something pressing against his entrance, so he forced his body to relaxed more, spreading his legs apart.

Seeing Quatre offer himself with the simple action touched Duo, giving him the will to go on. Pressing his finger inside the blonde boy, he gently moved it around, trying to stretch the small opening. Soon he was able to work on getting a second in with the first, the lavender oil making things much easier. When he had his two fingers in, he began searching with them, trying to find that one spot that would steal the blonde\'s breath away, and blind him with pleasure.

\"Duo!!\" Quatre moaned out, feeling something touched inside him that was unbelievable. His whole world started spinning in front of his eyes, and he could barely tell when it started and when it stopped.

Smiling at the dazed look on Quatre\'s pale face, Duo added another finger, not wanting to take any chances of causing his love any pain. Having watched him while he was working, Quatre looked like he was in pure ecstacy. Thinking that Quatre was prepared enough, Duo withdrew his fingers, almost laughing at the cute whimper of protest he got.

Leaning over, he kissed the already sweat dampened forehead. \"Almost, Quatre, just a few seconds longer.\" he reassured softly.

Looking up at him with glazed eyes, Quatre whimpered again. \"Please hurry, Duo... I want to feel you..\" he pleaded.

His passion rising, Duo couldn\'t wait either. Quickly, he ripped his shirt off, tossing it over his shoulder to join the blonde\'s clothes on the floor, and kicked his pants off before pouncing back on the bed. Moving between the spread legs, Duo moved closer and positioned himself. Before he could continue, the long haired boy looked down and the form under him, and the sight almost took his breath away.

Quatre\'s pale body spread out before him, the light from the fire place reflecting off the sheen of sweat on his body, making him glow beautifully. His blonde hair was splayed out on the pillows, a few locks still in his face, and his face was flushed from pleasure as his slightly swollen lips parted as he gasped and moaned. But his eyes, his eyes were the one thing that grabbed Duo\'s attention. They were glazed and sparkling brightly as if a thousand stars were held captive in their depths, and swirling around between the sparkles was the deep passionate love that Quatre held for Duo.

His need being brought front and center, Duo slowly pushed into the slick loosened opening, controlling himself not to move too fast. After pushing all the way into the tight warmth, he held still, wanting to give Quatre time to adjust to the feel.

Quatre began breathing faster, strangely feeling great contentment as Duo\'s hard length filled him. That was what he felt, a pleasant fullness, but he wanted.. No, needed so much more. Gasping, he desperately wanted Duo to move. \"Duo... Duo, please.... Please, love me!\" he begged as tears welled up in his eyes.

Part of Duo\'s heart shattered at the desperate plea, so he pulled out and pushed back in, trying to make a slow rhythm that would give Quatre the most pleasure. Knowing that this was all for Quatre, he wanted to make sure that the blonde knew that as well. Bending over, Duo moved to give Quatre a kiss, not changing his pace as he did.

Quatre was surprised when he felt Duo\'s lips pressing against his own, but responded eagerly, loving the mix of the two sensations. Wrapping his arms around him, Quatre gasped and moaned into Duo\'s mouth, barely noticing that Duo\'s hands were moving behind his back. Then the blonde suddenly realized that Duo was lifting him up. Without thinking, Quatre quickly wrapped his legs around Duo\'s waist, and held on to his shoulders to keep from falling. He then realized that Duo was having him sit in his lap, giving him the position of control. Opening his eyes from where he had closed them, he was greeted only by violet.

Eyes of aqua fire met with blazing violet ones as the two stared into each other in this most intimate position.

Duo then started to speak. \"Quatre... Listen to me... In this relationship, we are equal... I will never hold power over you..\" Running his hands up and down the soft back, Duo continued. \"You never have to beg for me to love you... I always have....\" He pressed their foreheads together. \"I always will.\"

Tears were now streaming from Quatre eyes. \"Duo.... I love you more than anything!\" he cried out in a whisper.

Soon, tears found their way out of Duo\'s eyes as well. \"I love you, Quatre, you and only you.\"

With that the two crushed their mouths together in a desperate passion filled kiss, and embraced one another as close as they could. A faster rhythm soon started as the couple now became one.

Gasps and moans were muffled by kisses, bodies became slick with sweat, the smell of lavender and their love was thick in the air which only heightened their senses as they continued to reach completion.

Quatre was in pure heaven, because not only was he feeling wave after wave of pleasure each time Duo\'s hot shaft entered him. He could feel what Duo was feeling each time he moved. Their pleasures were mixing together into one giant explosion of passion and love.

Duo could barely breathe, his length was being caressed firmly everywhere, and the tight heat seemed to pull him back in. The rest of his breath was being stolen my the hungry kisses that Quatre was giving him. He felt close to the edge, so began thrusting up with a little more force, capturing another moan from Quatre in his mouth. The friction of their moving bodies also pushed Quatre closer to the brink, feeling his aching shaft rubbing against Duo\'s firm stomach.

Now that their pace quickened, every move they made hit Quatre\'s sweet spot and went further. This caused him to hold on tighter to Duo, who pulled Quatre closer to his chest, which caused more friction against the blonde\'s shaft. It was one circle, what one did effected the other and so on. Both of them knew this, and both of them still had tears streaming down their faces, because the love they were making was the most beautiful thing in the world to them.

Then soon, yet not soon enough, Duo felt his climax rising quickly, so gave one last forceful thrust into Quatre, who felt his own release as well and met Duo with equal force. Breaking their deep kiss, both lovers threw their heads back and called out the other\'s name as they met completion at the same time.

Eyes wide, Quatre\'s back arched, and he gave a strangled cry at the intensity of what he felt....

It was Duo\'s love.

Quatre didn\'t see images of Duo\'s long ago past, he didn\'t feel each time the American was abused...

All he saw was them experiencing the same moment of their joining to their completion over and over again. It was the most incredible thing that the blonde had ever experienced in his life, and, somehow, he knew that Duo was feeling the same thing as him.

After a time, how long no one could say, the enormous waves of pleasure shrank down to gentle ripples, and Quatre was regaining his senses. It took him a moment, but he found himself laying back on the bed. Looking up he saw Duo was laying on top of him, and his long hair made a curtain around them. He was smiling warmly at him, and Quatre couldn\'t help but smile back.

\"Hey, Kitty Q, you okay?\" Duo asked, although knowing the answer already.

Quatre nodded, feeling exhausted, but extremely happy. \"Hmm... I think I shot past cloud nine, and I\'m orbiting Neptune.....\" he quipped. \"You?\"

Duo cupped Quatre\'s face in his hands. \"If I felt any better I\'d be a vegetable.\" he chuckled, kissing his nose. \"I would ask for another go, but I can barely move as it is.... But I do have one more thing I want to do....\" Duo then rolled off of Quatre, and chuckled again when he heard a grunt of disappointment. Reaching out he grabbed the second thing that he had placed on the table, and moved back to where he was sitting up facing Quatre.

When Quatre got a glimpse of what Duo had in his hand, he gasped and sat up....

It was a little velvet box.

\"Quatre, I made a promise to myself that, after the first time we made love, I would stay with you forever, no matter what. So..\" Duo opened the little box, and Quatre gasped again when he saw the gold band with a small diamond solitaire in the center. Taking out the ring, Duo picked up Quatre\'s left hand gently. \"Quatre, will you marry me?\" he asked, his entire soul showing in his eyes.

Speechless for a moment, Quatre snapped back into reality, and smiled brightly. \"Oh, of course, Duo! I will!\" he exclaimed happily, tears of joy flowing down his face.

Duo smiled back and gently placed the ring on the pale finger. Once the ring was in place, the two shared a gentle kiss before they both laid back down, and pulled the covers around them.

There was no war, there were no gundams, there were no scars, there were no past lives....

Only two boys in a cabin on a mountain, holding on to each other happily as they slipped into a blissful sleep while the dying embers of a fire made way for new flames of a strengthened love.

~*~

The pale rays of day sifted through the openings in the dark curtains. Two figures were still curled around each other in the bed, only aware of the person they were holding. Everything was quiet and peaceful....

*bring bring bring!*

*bring bring bring!*

*bring bring bring!*

Woken by the annoying ringing, Duo cracked open his eyes, and winced at the bright light that greeted them. \"What the hell?\" he asked groggily, trying to figure out what the sound was.

*bring bring bring!*

*bring bring bring!*

*bring bring bring!*

This time the noise woke the blonde that Duo was holding. \"Duo? What is that?.... A clock?\" Quatre asked through a yawn.

*bring bring bring!*

*bring bring bring!*

*bring bring bring!*

Letting go of his lover, Duo sat up and stretched. \"No... Sounds more like a phone....\" Duo blinked. \"A phone! Aw, damnit, I forgot!!\" Duo grunted as he jumped out of bed and moved quickly for the dresser.

Quatre watched him curiously, wondering what that meant. \"What are you talking about, Duo?\"

*bring bring bring!*

*bring bring bring!*

*bring bring bring!*

\"Heero told me that he would call today around noon...\" Reaching into the top drawer, Duo pulled out a cell phone. \"I guess we slept in.\" Quickly he answered. \"Heero?\"

The deep voice of the pilot answered him. <\"Yeah, what took you so long to answer?\"> the voice grunted.

Duo blushed and chuckled. \"Uhhh... We kinda slept in.\"

There was a pause. <\"Okay. How\'s Quatre?\">

Duo glanced at his lover still in bed, who was looking at him curiously. \"He\'s fine, how did things with Wu and Tro go?\" he asked, making his way back to the bed.

<\"Better than expected. Trowa and I came to terms, and Wufei won\'t be bothering Quatre anymore.... He\'s... getting what he deserves.\">

Duo smirked. \"Good.\" He then looked down at Quatre, who was giving him an evil smirk himself. \"What?\" he asked the blonde curiously.

Quatre then gave him a smile that was almost predatory. \"I hope this is what I\'ll see every morning from now on.\" he purred, the evil glimmer returning quickly.

Blinking, Duo wondered what that had meant, until he looked down....

He was still naked, and his long hair was all around him like a cape.

Snapping his head back up, he glared at Quatre. \"You little minx! I can see that you\'re nothing but a...\"

<\"Duo, what are you talking about?\"> Heero interrupted.

Duo froze, and began to blush all over. \"Uhhhh... Nothing, Heero!\"

\"Oooo! I didn\'t know you could blush there!\" Quatre said loudly on purpose.

\"Will you be quiet!?\" Duo growled, getting embarrassed.

<\"What? Was that Quatre?\"> Heero asked, sounding confused.

\"Yeah, that was Quatre....\" Duo grumbled, seeing that their relationship was going to be much more interesting than he had thought.

<\"Well, could you give him the phone? Trowa wants to talk with him.\">

\"Alright.\" Taking the phone away from his ear, he held it out to Quatre. \"Tro wants to talk with you.\"

Quatre took the phone and smiled at Duo. \"Thank you, my blushing bride.\" he teased.

Duo growled at that. \"Now wait a minute here! Who said...\"

\"Shhhh! It\'s rude to talk while someone is on the phone.\" Quatre stated, loving the way Duo was getting frustrated. He tried not to laugh while Duo walked back to the dresser, mumbling a few curses under his breath. Turning his attention back to the phone, he held it up to his ear. \"Trowa?\"

<\"Yeah, it\'s me Quatre... So... How are you doing?\"> Trowa\'s voice asked, sounding nervous.

\"I\'m doing okay...\"

\"OW! Damnit!!\"

Quatre looked over to see Duo hopping up and down on one foot.

\"Damn dresser!\" the long haired boy yelped, holding onto his stubbed toe.

Controlling himself as best he could, Quatre continued. \"I\'m not so sure about Duo at the moment, though.\" he chuckled.

<\"Oh... Quatre.... I... I want to say that I\'m sorry.... I\'m sorry for putting you through so much pain... Can you forgive me?\"> the voice asked in a pleading tone.

Becoming serious, Quatre answered. \"Of course I can, Trowa. I\'m not angry in any way at you... How are you and Heero?\" the blonde asked, still worried about the two of them.

<\"We\'re fine... We told each other how we felt, and it turned out that we both felt the same... But you knew that all along, didn\'t you?\">

Quatre smiled to himself. \"I knew you two would find each other some day.\"

<\"Hm, what about you and Duo?\">

Quatre looked over at his lover, who was currently struggling with brushing his long hair still naked, and smiled brighter. \"Let\'s just say that the second that the war is over, I\'m dragging him to the nearest chapel.\" he stated happily.

\"I\'m not wearing no damn dress!\" Duo made sure to point out.

The blonde giggled at the thought of Duo in a bride\'s dress. \"We\'re both happy.\"

Trowa\'s voice chuckled. <\"That\'s good.\">

\"We\'ll be able to talk better when we get back.\" Quatre told him, thinking about the dress more.

<\"When are you coming back?\">

Glancing back up, he was greeted by the sight of Duo bending over to get something out of the bottom dresser drawer. \"Hmm.. I think we\'ll stay for a few more days, so you and Heero have free run of the mansion.\" Quatre blushed slightly when Duo caught him staring at his bare ass.

Duo rolled his eyes and went back to looking for some new clothes. \"And I thought I was goin to be the naughty one... He\'s worse than I am.\" he said to himself.

<\"Alright. Then I guess it\'s by for now.\">

\"Yeah, and be sure to tell Rashid and the others that I\'m okay, and that I miss them.\" Quatre added, wondering how they were all doing.

<\"Okay. Bye, Quatre.\">

\"Bye, Trowa.\" Quatre then let his arm down and turned off the cell phone. Looking back up, he pouted when he saw that Duo had put his sweat pants back on. \"Awww! Did you hafta put them back on?\" he asked, upset.

Duo frowned at the blonde. \"Yes, I had to put them back on.\" he answered in a mocking tone. \"Honestly, Quatre, I didn\'t know you had that big of a naughty streak in you.\" he pointed out, walking back to the bed.

Quatre grinned brightly. \"Guess there\'s a lot that you really don\'t know yet.\" he giggled.

Smiling back, Duo chuckled and sat down. \"Then I guess that we\'ll just hafta learn together, won\'t we?\" he asked in a purr, wrapping his arms around the blonde, holding him close.

Sighing, the blonde melted into the strong arms contently. \"Yep.....\" Quatre then felt Duo\'s fingers lightly glide across his side. Trying to move away from the tickling touch, he giggled. \"Duo, stop, that tickles.....\" Quatre\'s eyes suddenly grew wide at what he just said. \"Duo, don\'t you dare!.... Eeeeek! Duo, stop!\" he squealed out when the hands began a full out tickle assault.

Grinning evilly, Duo laughed. \"No! Truce over!!! Come here, Kitty Q!!!\" he laughed maniacally.

Quatre was able to squirm free of Duo\'s hold, and rolled off the bed. Soon, he began running, with Duo right behind him. \"Duo!!! No fair! I\'m still naked!!!\" he squeaked, jumping over the couch to dodge a grab attempt.

Duo laughed again. \"So? Serves you right for that bride crack!!! Here kitty, kitty, kitty!!!!\" He pounced on the couch, and barely missed landing on top of the blonde.

Desperate, Quatre made a dash for the door. Quickly, he opened the door, and ran for the bathroom, Duo still right behind him.

\"God, I wish I had a camera!!!!\" Duo laughed hysterically before chasing the blonde into the bathroom.

Then all was peaceful at the mountain cabin....

\"Eeeeeeeek!!! Duo!\"

\"Here kitty kitty kitty!!!\"

Well, close enough.

~*~

After placing the phone down, Trowa looked over at Heero and smiled.

\"Quatre said we had free run of the mansion till he gets back.\" he told Heero, his voice sound almost like a purr.

Heero raised a brow. \"Oh, he did? Hmmm.... Then shall we adjourn to a different room?\" he asked, a small smirk on his face as he offered his arm to Trowa.

Trowa nodded, and took the arm. \"But which room?\"

Leading him out of the library, Heero laughed. \"Who cares?\"

The two then left the room side by side.

~*~

At the mountain estate much has happened, but, for the pilots it has strengthened their bonds to each other, and has given them new hope, new love, and new life.....

Well....

At least four of them.
