"Road Trip"

Ch 2

It turned out they were less than five miles from the highway but what highway was another question entirely. The sun had come up by the time they passed a sign that read I271S and although Quat had been a trouper and hadn’t complained once about the long walk Duo knew he had to be exhausted and in need of a proper nap and bath. He hadn’t had a bath in two days so chancing a hotel seemed like a pretty good idea.

‘You said you have money?’ he asked his new friend who had been going on about the endless expanses of corn fields in this part of the country.

‘Hm? Oh yeah,’ he smiled pulling out his wallet. ‘Here you are,’ he said pulling a card from his wallet and handing it to Duo who took it and froze solid in his tracks. ‘What?’ Quat asked stopping several feet ahead of him and looking back curiously.

‘This is a god damn freeloaders card!’ Duo exclaimed. He’d heard of them, he knew they existed but he’d never in his wildest dreams ever thought he’d actually be holding one in his hand! These things were only given to people who were so rich they didn’t actually have to pay for anything!

‘Is that a problem?’ Quat asked as clueless as ever.

Duo just rolled his eyes and tried to figure out how deep a hole they’d bury him in for this one. ‘We can’t use this,’ he told him handing the card back. ‘They’ll be able to track it,’ he explained. ‘And don’t show it to anyone else,’ he added just for good measure. ‘Do you have any cash?’

‘Umm, no.’

‘Shit.’

‘How about this?’ he asked producing another credit card with a little golden stamp on the corner signifying an ungodly credit limit. Duo just stared at it.

‘Umm, this one?’

Stare…

‘No? Well I have this…’

After another five elite credit cards were produced Duo finally snapped out of the nightmarish day dream he’d been having about how he was going to look in a long, white beard and prison blues and shoved them back at him.

‘It’s a cash only deal,’ he told him.

‘But this is all I have,’ Quat told him sounding outright scandalized that it wasn’t good enough. ‘We can get some cash at an ATM,’ he reasoned brightening for a moment but the tolerant expression on Duo’s face told him he’d gone wrong again.

‘It’s all traceable,’ Gods! Thank heaven he was underage, maybe the sentence for abducting a trillionair wasn’t as long for a minor. ‘Ok,’ he sighed. ‘Back to basic’s then,’ he said bolstering himself up as they approached an exit that advertised a Days Inn, a Waffle House and a Shell gas station.

‘Listen,’ he told his sore footed companion when they entered the convenience store at the Shell. ‘Just stay close and follow my lead ok?’ Quat nodded obediently and followed him inside. The woman at the counter didn’t bother to look up while he led him to the back where the coolers were to get a drink. Quat started to follow suit but stopped when Duo shook his head though he couldn’t take his eyes off the cold sodas. They hadn’t had anything to drink since the night before and the long walk had drained them both.

‘Go grab us some chips,’ Duo said in a voice loud enough to make the woman look up from her reading briefly. ‘Not those,’ Duo scoffed returning the Dorito’s in exchange for some BBQ Ruffles before flashing the woman a bright smile. ‘Bit dull around here, huh?’ he asked while she smiled looking him over once before replying.

‘Same shit every day… you boy’s just passing through?’ she asked glancing at a man entering the store while she was ringing up the soda and chips but the guy couldn’t seem to take his eyes off the way Duo’s ass filled out those short cut offs long enough to notice her. When his eyes did finally lift enough to look him in the face he started when he saw it belonged to a guy.

‘Hi,’ Duo smiled while he took his place in line behind him. He nodded glancing at Quat as well.

‘You live around here?’ the man asked nervously and Duo smiled even bigger. ‘I mean... I was just wondering if you could tell me where Lenard Road is?’ he asked hastily.

‘Sorry,’ Duo replied collecting his pack off the floor. ‘We’re not from around here,’ he told him. The information seemed to make him even more nervous before he turned his attention to the directions the woman was already offering him.

Duo led his companion outside and out of sight of the cashier before turning his bottle of soda up. Quat watched horrified while he all but drained it then reached into his pack and pulled out another handing it to the suddenly gaping blond.

‘You stole this!’ he gasped attacking the cold drink with gusto.

‘You’d rather thirst to death?’ Duo grinned handing him another since he’d already drained the first.

‘Are we going to walk some more?’ Quat asked sounding very much like he’d like the answer to be no.

Duo smiled at the man coming out of the store who still couldn’t take his eyes off of him and shook his head while he stretched one long leg out for the guy to gape at and broadened his grin.

‘What’re you..?’

‘Shh,’ Duo hissed reaching out to pull him down into his lap and chuckling out loud when the guy ran headlong into his car. The guy blushed, smiled and glanced at the Days Inn across the road.

‘Wanna shower?’ Duo asked his lap full of confused blond who nodded while he inadvertently played along perfectly by sucking on his bottle of pop. The man paused and looked at the motel again while Duo smiled and ran his hand up Quat’s thigh.

‘What’s going on?’ Quat asked while they waited by the ice machine in the little alcove under the stairs at the Days Inn. Duo just motioned for him to be quiet and dug around in his pack looking up at where the man from the store was going into the office.

Quat’s big eyes grew large and round before he exclaimed, ‘Your not going to sleep with that man!?’

‘Shh! Just keep your mouth shut and do exactly as I say,’ Duo told him in a stern tone popping a breath mint in his mouth. ‘When we get inside, go in the bathroom and don’t come out,’ he told him. ‘Got that? Don’t come out for anything.’

Quat blanched but there was no time for a reply as the man was suddenly there beside them smiling nervously.

‘Hi,’ Duo smiled while he tucked Quat behind him protectively. The guy looked around then leaned in closer and asked…

‘How much?... ‘Cause... ya know? I’ve never done anything like this before,’ he said looking very anxious.

‘We can work it out inside,’ Duo replied ushering him toward the room with the number that matched the key in his hand. Quat clung to the back of his shirt being pulled along until they were inside where Duo had to remind him with a gesture to head for the bathroom.

‘Do I,’ the guy asked looking him over while he disappeared. ‘Do I get you both?’ he asked hopefully.

‘You are a naughty fellow,’ Duo grinned slinking over to him, his arms slipping around his neck while he all but quit breathing. ‘Trio’s are extra,’ he purred. ‘Aren’t I enough?’ he asked letting his lips just barely ghost over his victims.

‘Jesus,’ the man exclaimed. ‘Yeah, you’ll do,’ he smiled. ‘I’ve never seen such a pretty boy before,’ he praised pulling him closer.

‘And you never will again,’ Duo grinned letting him kiss him. He wasn’t really all that bad but then Duo never did this sort of thing with anyone he wasn’t sure he could win over. This guy was like cake, he grinned inwardly lapping up the passion he was inspiring while he pushed him back towards the bed.

‘I can’t believe I’m doing this!’ the guy exclaimed running his hands over Duo’s long, thin, curvy body. ‘I’m not even gay, ya know? But damn... you’re just so...’

‘I know,’ Duo smiled doing a very well executed little turn that put him on his back instead of Duo while he kissed him again and bit down hard on the pill he had hidden in his mouth. The guy jerked but it was too late.

‘What in the hell was that?’ he asked clearly frightened.

‘Relax,’ Duo smiled. ‘Would I have it in my mouth if it was dangerous?’ he asked easing his mind a little while he pet his hair and pressed his hips into him. Man! He had a package under there that’s for sure! Duo was finding himself fairly turned on here. ‘It was just a little something to help us get in the mood,’ he told him kissing him again.

‘Drugs?’ the man surmised nervously as he’d already swallowed the bitter tasting liquid.

‘Mmm,’ Duo moaned rolling his hips again. He was almost disappointed when the guy slowly went limp beneath him but that didn’t stop him from riffling through his wallet.

‘What did you do to him?!’ Quat asked sounding very frightened when he burst from the bathroom.

‘Relax,’ Duo told him. ‘He’s just asleep.’

‘You’re robbing him!’ he gasped incredulously while Duo emptied his wallet of cash.

‘Payment for services rendered,’ Duo grinned pocking the cash.

‘But you didn’t… I mean there weren’t any... services!’ Quat retorted.

‘I ain’t turning him in for statutory rape and solicitation,’ Duo countered getting a little irritated. ‘Chill out,’ he told him hauling the guy all the way up on the bed to sleep it off.

‘But... you tricked him,’ Quat said looking as if he were still trying to work it all out.

‘The guy was gonna fuck a seventeen year old boy for money,’ Duo suddenly snapped. ‘He’s lucky he didn’t get his dick ripped off! Now either chill out and play by the rules or go the fuck home!’ he growled tossing what remained of the guy’s wallet on the bed, snatching up his pack and heading for the door.

‘I’m sorry!’ Quat gasped tackling him from behind. He almost knocked him off his feet, if it hadn’t been for how tight his arms were around him he would have. ‘I’m sorry,’ he repeated. ‘I’ve just... never seen this side of life before. It’s... frightening but... please… I’m sorry... I won’t question you again,’ he promised.

‘See that you don’t,’ Duo told him in a stern but forgiving tone. ‘’Cause one wrong move’ll get you killed out here,’ he informed him before leading him back out into the sunshine.

They caught a ride with an old farmer that told them his life’s story while he drove thirty in a seventy five but it was better than walking then managed to hop in with a couple that was heading for a vacation in the Rocky Mountains but they had to ditch them when they stopped for gas later that evening because Duo couldn’t tolerate the girls incessant whining at the guy for every thing from his smoking to his shoe style. They’d made Ohio State by then though and ended up in a little town where Duo found them a hotel room for the night. It was always risky staying in a hotel since they were underage and people would sometimes ask questions but he reeeally needed a shower.

‘Hey, Duo?’ Quat called from where he was lying on his stomach on the bed reading through the pamphlet on what was available nearby. ‘Do we have enough money to get something from one of these restaurants?’ he asked his companion who was still busy using seven little bottles of the hotel shampoo to wash his long hair.

‘Yeah,’ Duo replied feeling the need for some real food himself. The snacks he’d taken from the Shell had run out by mid afternoon so they were both feeling a little empty. He’d let Quat shower first since he knew it’d take him awhile but when he came out he was still stunned to find him in nothing but a pair of his boxers laying on the bed, face down, rocking gently to the music on the clock radio. He licked his lips gazing at his smooth, pale, flawless skin, his back was much more muscular than it had looked under the pastel pink shirt he’d been wearing and his legs… they were thicker than Duo’s, strong but fine and almost completely hairless. Or was it just that the hairs were so fine and blond? In any case it looked like he’d shaved them and they went alllll the way up to the bottom of those shorts. Gods in Heaven he even had cute feet and that rocking motion was making him nuts.

‘Did you find something you want to eat?’ he asked pulling his gaze away.

‘You?’ he chuckled cracking an eye on him. Had he known he was watching him?

‘I’m not going to fill your belly,’ Duo said through a forced little chuckle while his groin tightened a little more.

‘I wasn’t thinking of filling my belly,’ Quat purred rolling over half on his back. Duo stopped to watch him, his eyes fixed on the way he was slowly spreading his legs.

‘Don’t do that,’ he warned.

‘This is what that man wanted to do to you isn’t it?’ he asked letting his knees fall further apart.

‘You shouldn’t do things like that,’ Duo told him willing his body to obey and remain on his own side of the room.

‘Why not?’ Quat smiled.

‘Because you’re not ready for it.’

‘How would you know what I’m ready for?’ he smiled wantonly running one hand up the side of his sumptuously pale thigh.

‘You don’t know what you’re doing,’ Duo warned as if trying to convince himself of the words instead of his companion.

‘Don’t make me do it myself,’ Quat sighed letting his head fall back on the bed while his fingers slipped up the leg of his shorts.

Wellllllll hell….

‘This is going to hurt ya know?’ he told him crawling up over him where he grinned up at him.

He recalled the prior afternoon with the blue eyed suit when he’d learned that rumor was all too true. It hadn’t really been that bad but that was probably due to the fact that he’d been so overwhelmed with passion and he was soooo damn good at it. He took his time with his new mate trying to make things as easy on him as possible but truth be known the kid was really very anxious for the new experience and egged him on until he couldn’t stand it anymore. He cried when he did finally take him making Duo kind of want to pull away but he wouldn’t let him urging him onward, begging outright for more until the painful creases in his brow were replaced by euphoric lines. He was so sweet and innocent right up until the end Duo couldn’t wait to take him again so they ended up ordering pizza and just making love all night. In the morning he still couldn’t grasp how he could still look so pure. He remembered the things he’d done to him and how he’d reacted and he defiantly wasn’t innocent anymore but he sure as hell had retained that essence somehow. He could see it in the serenity of his slumbering face. He realized the depth of his mistake when he reached out his hand to touch his face and his presence touched his heart.

‘Mmmm,’ Quat moaned gently smiling in his angelic way while he cracked open beautiful, cerulean eyes on a world that had just drastically changed. ‘Mornin.’

Duo smiled. He really was beautiful. The memory of a pair of dark blue eyes full of passion and intent flashed in his mind once again as it had so many times that night. Each time he’d taken him he’d seen images of that first encounter. He wondered idly if it would always be so. His first. Did everyone remember their first this way?

‘You should go home,’ he told his groggy mate.

‘What?’ Quat breathed coming fully awake.

‘You’re not meant for this life,’ he told him.

‘Are you… done with me then?’ he asked in a pain filled tone.

‘Hell, no,’ Duo smiled reaching to lay his palm on his cheek. ‘I want an address and a phone number,’ he told him. ‘I’ll call you once I’m settle in L.A.,’ he promised.

‘I live in Arabia,’ Quat confessed and Duo felt his heart rip a little. ‘I’m here for a long vacation,’ he went on. ‘But I’m supposed to return to take the throne in three weeks.’

‘Ah geez,’ Duo sighed rolling over on his back while his heart fell into several little pieces. Well, that’s what happens when you break the rules of the road and ask too many questions. How could he have let his heart get involved? He knew better than this.

‘I don’t want to go back,’ Quat confessed snuggling up to his side.

‘You’re a prince?’ Duo asked in a very defeated tone and Quat nodded. ‘Son’u’va’bitch,’ he groaned reaching for the remote and turning the vid on to watch the morning news. He didn’t have to wait long.

‘Prince Quatre Raberba Winner has still not been located. The President has issued a country wide search for the missing heir but no evidence as to his whereabouts has been found. So far there has been no demand for ransom and the young monarchs personal guard have had no luck finding any leads…’

‘Son.. of.. a.. bitch,’ Duo ground out clicking it off again and dropping the remote.

‘I’m sorry,’ Quatre apologized. ‘They wont blame you though,’ he assured him. ‘I’m always trying to run away. I... really hate it there. It’s like being in prison,’ he said staring at the blank screen of the vid as if it were his only window to the world. ‘I’m not even allowed outside without my guards,’ he said quietly.

Duo took a good, long look at him and slowly picked up the pieces of his broken heart. One by one he painstakingly knitted them back together again making one of the toughest decisions of his life when he reached over, pushed him down and made love to him again. Afterward he steeled his resolve as he got up and got dressed looking back at the sweet, young blond still lying in the bed dozing. He smiled letting all the tenderness and heat of the past few hours wash over him then kicked the side of the bed so hard he almost jumped clean out of it.
