various colonies on behalf of GAIA. "Endangered"
[Space never looks this black on Earth,] thought Heero Yuy, leaning against the observation window, palms down against the transparent glassteel. He gazed at the tiny, winking lights and the illuminated disc of a nearby colony, avoiding the hard glare of the crescent moon, too bright to gaze at comfortably from a spaceship. [It's so black one could fall into it and disappear forever.] Once he might have wanted to do that, fall into nothingness and be gone. But his friends had shown him a new way to think about life and living, and he'd developed new values and goals with their help. [Zechs says that he thinks he escaped a path leading to despair and anarchy because he found Duo,] Heero ruminated. [Could be; OZ had been getting out of hand to the point where even Treize Khushrenada had had to step back from it. And Zechs had needed to fall in love to find hope...] He sighed deeply as he turned around and leaned back on the window, folding his arms in front of him. This massive spaceship, Peacemillion, was very quiet, which was very much to Heero's liking. It was now GAIA's home in space since they left Earth two weeks ago. Now that they were established in their new base, some of them were embarking upon missions to talk to colonial leaders, hoping to wean them away from dependence on OZ. Heero was waiting to leave for a mission right now, but he had no wish to hasten his departure for L2, where he and Duo would meet with colony rebels whom they hoped to recruit for GAIA. Quatre and Noin were leaving for the L4 cluster to meet with the blond Gundam pilot's father. Zechs himself was leaving as well, intending to recruit the former United Earthsphere Alliance at Colony D-120 for their new organization before they attempted to oppose OZ more directly. [Duo needs this time with Zechs. It will be a while before they see each other again...] [OZ...] Heero wondered how Trowa was doing. By design, the tall, auburn-haired boy had not contacted Peacemillion for some time, needing to establish himself firmly with Colonel Une as an officer and mobile suit expert in OZ. No risks could be allowed, so communication had been severely limited until the time came in which he felt he was more trusted. [Trowa's handling an awful lot, deep in the lions' den there... and Quatre has been keeping himself very busy in order to avoid having too much time to think about missing him. Ah, Trowa... I think I miss you, too, your silent strength...] Heero turned around again and laid a hand against the glassteel. "Trowa," he whispered, "be careful..." Two distinctly different male chuckles were emanating from beneath the weblike bed coverings in a particular set of quarters shared by two GAIA pilots. "Remember when we first made love in gravity this low?" asked the more husky voice. "I don't remember another time in which we've laughed so hard!" "Oh, that was hilarious!" Duo said, chuckling as his hands roamed over his lover's delicious nakedness. "God, Zechs, I think we've had so much practice we should write a how-to-guide for low gravity encounters." The secured weblike coverings were a bit unnerving to Duo who innately needed to fidget and squirm, but once his tall, long lover put his hands on him and the heat began to build between them the boy's frustrations melted away. "Damn, I'm gonna miss this... miss you," he said, sliding his hands down Zechs's backside and kneading the sweet, round globes of the man's ass. Zechs suckled idly at Duo's throat, then shifted forward to nip at his earlobe. "We're not talking about that yet, I thought. Right now, little fox, there's just you and me. Just feel me..." And to punctuate his words, he ground his groin against Duo's. "All of me..." Then, still rotating his hips against the younger man beneath him, Zechs swooped in to kiss him. [And we'll deal with leaving when we have to,] he added to himself, seeking to lose himself in sensation and his energetic little lover. The grinding of that incredible hardness against his own hardness focused Duo's attention immediately. He wrapped one leg around Zechs's thigh and moaned into the kiss, cherishing this closeness... their body heat, their intimacy. Since sorting out their last terrible misunderstanding, they had made love at least twice every day... morning and night... and usually more when they could manage a break during the day. It was something they both needed, not just as young men, but as two people deeply in love and deeply connected after suffering through so much together. And now they had one more chance to share that love before parting on their missions. [Zechs is right,] Duo thought as he explored his lover's mouth with his tongue. [We need to focus on each other right now. No war... no mission... just me and Wolf!] The mesh web above them served to keep them from floating upwards off the bed when things got more vigorous, but it did mean they had to tangle their limbs rather more to maintain physical contact. This... was not a problem. Zechs wanted to feel as much of his precious Duo as possible, memorize the feel of him, his scent and taste against the lonely nights ahead while they each worked to consolidate opposition to OZ in outer space. Most of all, he wanted to make absolutely certain that Duo was completely convinced that Zechs loved him to the depths of his heart and soul. There would be no more misunderstandings between them. None were allowed, could be allowed. They were mates and lovers and that was that. So... Zechs would take his time to love Duo thoroughly and to satiation before parting with him. Like now, as Zechs kissed his beloved slowly, mapping every minute surface of Duo's mouth with his tongue. [He's gonna take it nice and easy,] Duo thought, rubbing his leg up and down on Zechs's thigh. There were times when they both needed it hard and fast, but this was not one of them. Duo delighted in the fact that his lover seemed to instinctively know what they both needed, setting the pace for them, but always... always remaining aware of changing needs and desires. [He's my perfect mate... he puts up with my chatter... doesn't mind my wriggling or that I don't fold my clothes... and he loves me.] The last thought melted Duo all the more as he tried to increase the contact between them. [He loves me...] Slowly Zechs ended the kiss, smiling broadly, his eyes hooded as he looked down into his lover's cobalt eyes. "Did I ever tell you that you are completely delicious?" he murmured, caressing Duo's side lightly. Duo laughed, delighted by the question and the beautiful smile on his lover's face. "You mean like I taste good?" he asked, laughing all the more and wriggling under Zechs. "Do I taste as good as... chocolate?" he asked, his eyes bright and playful. "Or am I more like potatoes with butter and gravy?" Zechs grinned, sifting his fingers through the younger man's luscious loose tresses. "All of the above, with pizza and baklava thrown in for good measure. Better than all of that!" Then, winking, he dipped down to taste a nipple. "Mmm, I do sound tasty!" Duo giggled and then moaned as his nipple was laved. The association of baklava with sex was strong and Duo's mind quickly raced back to that day in Cairo. "You were always creative when it came to food and sex," Duo said as he wriggled under his lover's attentions. "Well, you've certainly been food for my soul," Zechs murmured, shifting his body down further as he switched to the other nipple. Because of the zero gravity in space, it was easier to move around against each other under the webbing. He gave the tiny pink nub a good suckling, then moved his hands over Duo's sides and hips, enjoying the feel of him. "Damn, I just might have to eat you up... but then there wouldn't be any more of you to enjoy." Duo chuckled at his lover's last remark, but his thoughts quickly returned to the other thing that had been said. The thing that made his heart swell with emotion. "I'm food for your soul?" Duo asked, as he took a handful of platinum hair and caressed it over his cheek. "Gee, Zechs, sometimes you really blow me away." Zechs glanced up to see Duo stroking his own cheek with a thick length of the older man's hair. Immediately he felt his heart melting at the sight. "Maybe so," he murmured, his voice going more husky, "but I do mean it. You complete me in ways I can't begin to describe." Then he surged back up the other's slender body to nuzzle his face against Duo's neck, wrapping his arms around him. [And here I rest my soul as well. For now, I soak my being with his essence so that I may carry it with me for as long as he is gone...] The boy's eyes went wide with the depth of his lover's emotion. "You complete me, too," Duo said, as he petted Zechs's back soothingly. [It's this damn separation... he says we shouldn't talk about it now, but I know that's what he's thinking.] "We're in each other's hearts," he said, a bit softly, as if he needed to be extra tender in this moment. "Yes..." For a long moment, Zechs rested there. [The future is not at all certain, for all of our success on Earth,] he allowed himself to ruminate, calming as his lover petted his back and hair. [Many unknowns, and we are both leaving to subject ourselves to those unknowns. Duo to meet with the remaining underground movement with which he was once associated, I with my former enemies. I must believe we will prevail...] He took a deep breath, then lifted away from his beloved's body, sliding down to his groin. "Mmmm, I think more tasting now..." He ghosted his lips across Duo's member, nudging the sac beneath with his nose as the boy automatically opened his legs to let him settle between them. "Oh, yeah," Duo said, watching enthusiastically as Zechs began to pleasure him anew. [He was definitely thinking about our missions... It'll be tough, but we decided this together... Wow, we're actually a couple!] That last thought, combined with the delicious attentions he was now receiving, made him tingle all over. "Zechs..." he said, still clinging to the man's hair. "Oh, God, you're wonderful." "So are you," Zechs purred, and licked his way up the hardening length of his lover. "Tasty fox..." Then he took him into his mouth to leisurely pleasure him. Gravity this close to zero actually made this very easy, as he was able to wrap his arms around Duo's hips to hold him in place. Somehow, going down on Duo like this now gave Zechs a deep feeling of peace, of rightness with the universe. [My Dancer... my mate...] "Ahhh," Duo whimpered as he was swallowed. "G... good," he managed to say, keeping his eyes fixed heatedly on his lover. The boy wanted desperately to remember everything about this moment and about Zechs... the way his hair shimmered in the light, the way he growled with sexual hunger, and the way his scent permeated Duo's nostrils when they made love. Even if they were only separated for a few weeks it would be hell on Duo. He had become so accustomed to Zechs's presence that the man was a part of him now. [Not just in my heart... he's my life!] "Oh, God..." Duo said, aloud, missing Zechs already and thrumming from the sensations he was being given. Zechs reached up to rub lightly on a nipple as he worked the length of Duo's cock slowly. He would take him in to the root, expertly swallowing him, then pull back up with his lips toward the head again, pausing there to lovingly tease at the underside with his tongue before plunging down again. [Feel my love, baby,] he thought as if his little lover could translate his lovemaking into words. [Feel me being imprinted upon your being... and later when you are alone in a strange bed, you will still feel me...] The younger pilot's body trembled as he was pleasured, his hands fisting in the sheets. [He's taking this slow,] Duo thought, knowing damn well that Zechs was aware that Heero and the others were waiting for them to finish their good-byes so that they could all depart on their missions. [My Wolf doesn't want to say good-bye... he wants to show me every pleasure... make me remember him like this.] These pleasures were making him breathe harder and move closer to the edge... and make Duo smile as he thought about his new life with Zechs. [God, none of my old Sweeper buddies would believe it if they saw me now....] Suddenly, that edge was a lot closer than Duo had realized. His hands flew back to Zechs's head, grabbing a mass of white-blond hair as if to pull his lover off him. "Zechs... Wolf..." he panted. "Please!..." The urgency in Duo's voice and the abrupt yank of his hair caused Zechs to let the hardness slip from his mouth. He looked up the length of Duo's body to look concernedly into the wide, cobalt eyes. "You okay, baby?" he murmured quietly, petting the boy's side in soothing strokes. "Um, yeah!" Duo said, breathing hard and trying to gather his wits about him. He had thought he needed to be released from his lover's mouth, but now he ached for that contact again. "Oh, damn it, Zechs!" the boy said in frustration. "You're gonna make me come!" He wasn't complaining, just fretting that his body was making things happen too quickly. "Is this a problem?" Zechs asked, feigning innocence, but there was a devilish glint in his eyes. He gave his lover's rampant erection another long lick, all while watching Duo's face. [Want this to be memorable...] The boy visibly shook. "God!" he cried out, clenching his hands into fists to stop himself from coming on the spot. "What y... you do to me!" Zechs flashed him a quick grin, then engulfed him completely again, resuming his task with new enthusiasm. [He's so adorable when he's needy...] "Ahh!" Duo cried out, sounding in pain though he was in complete ecstasy having that mouth wrap around him again. "Oh... OH!" he called as his orgasm overtook him... making him gasp and moan and reach out for his lover. It was pure heaven to come in Zechs's mouth... to empty himself with his lover swallowing and licking him clean. "Oh, God, Wolf!" Sighing deeply as he licked his lips, Zechs released him and gently pushed upward against the mesh. "That's my little fox," he whispered with love, smiling at him even though he reached for the little jar of lubricant - a special mixture designed for outer space, providing slipperiness with cohesion to avoid droplets going everywhere. After quickly slicking up his own erection, Zechs lifted Duo's leg, applied a little more lube, and slid home deep into the already loosened channel. "Mmmm, Duo..." Still semi-delirious and shaking from his orgasm, Duo gasped as Zechs entered him. The glorious slide of hard flesh was almost too much on the boy's already overloaded senses. He whimpered a plea in feigned protest, "Y...you're trying... to kill me!" The crystalline, pale blue eyes having fallen closed for a moment, Zechs peered again at his lover's _expression, which, to his amusement, clearly belied his words. Even so, he slowed down. He winked at Duo and murmured huskily, "I have a very important task to do here, Dancer. I must make sure that only a Gundam Pilot Who is Loved leaves this room to go on a mission. No other pilot may depart from my side for that purpose. Now, unless you've hidden Quatre in here... and about his status as such I cannot do anything about... that must mean it's you." "Oh, I'm feeling loved all right," Duo said with a chuckle and then thrust back on the hard length impaling him. He was beginning to groove in the new sensation of being filled. "Mmm, feeling very loved... How 'bout you?" he asked, and reached around to grab Zechs's ass. "'Coz man, do I ever love every inch of you!" Thrusting deep and slow, Zechs leaned over his beloved, smiling. "Yes, I'm definitely a Pilot Who is Loved, too, baby." And with that, he reached under to clasp the nape of Duo's loose hair as he dipped down to kiss his sweet Dancer deeply. The kiss sent a wave of warmth racing through Duo, heightening his need to be close to his Wolf. He wrapped his legs around the man, to hold him tight as he took each loving thrust and returned the kiss with all his love. [I never thought I could be loved like this... and then Zechs happened... and everyday I feel like he loves me more!] Duo's own love for his mate was something akin to profound. How a fifteen-year-old street punk had ever found his heart... and found it in this blond Adonis was nearly beyond the boy's comprehension. But here they were, loving each other, sinfully deeply, and wanting more. [I want to spend the rest of my life showing him how much I love him!] As he kissed his beloved deeply, thrusting into him with a smooth, steady rhythm, Zechs marveled at his own wonderful fortune. [He's utterly unlike anyone I've ever been with before... and he's everything I need,] he mused with satisfaction, supremely savoring this thorough loving of his Dancer. [My eager, loving, lively little man... I think I could have even picked him out in a crowd, attracted by his vibrant joie de vivre... Yet astonishingly he's a fierce fighter for peace like myself. Quite the pair we are...] For a moment he indulged himself in a moment of fantasy. Zechs pictured himself entering the grand palace of Sank, dressed in the formal ancient garb that heralded back to the 18th Century, with his beloved consort at his side, dressed similarly. Oh, the old retainers who surely had returned to the palace would love Duo. How he would brighten up the place! Or some might be horrified, but Zechs could care less. If they couldn't stand to see their king so happy, that was their problem. [Not that I want to be king... it's just an idle fantasy...] Slowly he pulled back out of the kiss, releasing a deep purr of pleasure. "Duo, baby, you make me so happy..." he sighed, smiling. "And you make me feel so good... love to love you like this..." "Oh, and I love the way you love me!" Duo said, smiling and greedily taking every inch of his big man. "There's just one problem..." he added with a chuckle, "...I can't get enough of you!" And with that pronouncement he wriggled and clenched on the hard length inside him. "Oh, yeah! Need my hungry Wolf!" Zechs grunted as his lover's movements sent a spike of higher arousal throughout his groin. "I think..." he panted, stepping up the pace a little, "that you've said that before..." Though the wriggling had sent them floating up against the webbing holding them near the bed, Zechs held on to Duo with one arm, grabbing at the rail at the head of the bed with his free hand to anchor them. "Ohhh, God, Duo, so good..." he breathed, thrusting even harder. "Oooh, that's it... that's what I want," Duo said, moaning as each deep thrust took him to the next level of need. Though they were still learning about each other, in a hundred different ways, their bodies were becoming more attune with each coupling. It was their shared eagerness coupled with Zechs's expertise and Duo's playfulness which made their encounters so very satisfying... even in zero- gravity. "Take me harder... faster... if you want it, Zechs," Duo said, encouraging his lover to let loose. Harder was doable, though Zechs did not want to make Duo too sore; the boy had a long shuttle ride to the L2 cluster ahead of him. Still, he knew that any soreness would be cherished by Duo, who loved it when his body felt "used" by his lover long after their lovemaking. Faster was not as easy an option in zero-g. Even so... Zechs would give Duo what he wanted... what they both wanted. "Hang on to me," he groaned, reaching up with his other hand to hold onto the rail while Duo linked his hands behind Zechs's waist. It was a trick they'd soon discovered for making love in space: one holds onto the other, the other holds onto the bed. Then Zechs was able to let go, abandoning himself to the rush of sensation building within him. As entwined with his body as Duo was... and as joined as he was with Duo's... they moved as a single unit in a fluid dance of passion. "Oh, yeah!" Duo cried out, tightening his grip around his lover who was working hard to pleasure them both. With Zechs pressed so close to his body, he was rubbing Duo's new erection with his belly, driving the boy wild. "Oh... fuck this is good!" "You... SAID it!" Zechs groaned, then began to grunt in time with his thrusts, feeling wild and free, almost as if he truly was a rutting wolf bedding his mate. Hair spilled everywhere, the chestnut tresses practically a cloud around Duo's shoulders and sides, while Zechs's own platinum mane cascaded over Duo's chest and Zechs's arms. They'd be untangling it afterwards; Zechs nearly laughed at the thought of how their unconventionally long hair not only brought them together but still seemed to feature largely in their lovemaking. [Oh, God, when he fucks me... I feel his love... his hunger,] Duo thought, as his body signaled it could no longer resist the temptation of orgasm that had been prickling at his spine for some time. He had tried to ignore the need, wanting to hold onto this moment forever, but it was just too much to hold back any more. To take himself over the edge, he clenched his buttocks again, increasing the friction on that slide of hard flesh pounding him. The result was immediate. "AH!" he cried out, almost surprised. "Zechs! I'm gonna...." And the boy came hard before he could say anymore. Zechs was just about to lift a hand to brush away a tendril of hair - Duo's - that seemed determined to float into his open mouth when his lover suddenly jerked, muscles contracting around him, then he felt the hotness hit his belly. Then he was swept up in his own explosion and he did let go of the head rail then to fold both arms around Duo while they shuddered together. "D...Duo! Baby..." Feeling a parallel crashing of emotion, he captured the boy's mouth to kiss him deeply, searing his love onto his being. Duo latched onto the kiss hungrily and a bit desperately. [This is the last time... for a while,] he thought, knowing the time for their separation was now at hand. True to form, he hadn't bothered to think about their impending separation until this morning. He didn't want it hanging over him... making him think that each time he made love with Zechs it was just one time closer to their last. But now it was their last and he couldn't help but silently indulge in the sadness in his heart. He would be strong, very strong when the time came, but right now, with Zechs's arms around him and their bodies still joined and trembling with the last effects of their orgasms he allowed himself a bit of grief. He loved Zechs and it was only right that the man knew how very much he would miss him. When Duo's arms tightened hard about his neck, Zechs thought he sensed a particularly strong fierceness in Duo's kiss. [He's dreading leaving me,] he thought, feeling his own ache. [We knew this would happen... and it won't be better for a while. I must be strong for him. We *will* be together when this is all over... we must...] (tbc)
