Chapter 23: To the Falls We Go

>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> ;>>>>>>>>

"Come on Heero, we only have ten hours of day light left before the sun sets!!! Let's get to the falls as soon as possible. Collin step on it!" Duo shouted.

I had woken up to an energetic Duo and now was sitting in the limo, hardly awake and Duo bouncing up and down right next to me. It was a welcome sight none-the-less from his previous quiet one, but I wished he had woken me up first, before hauling me down to the limo and traveling to see the falls.

Duo had gotten himself ready and then put my clothes on while I was still asleep. How I slept through it all, I have no idea, but he didn't complain nor did I notice him putting the cloth on me until he shook me awake. He seemed to be very…talented with his stealth abilities, not that I was complaining. It made life interesting and was a welcome change. Anything having to do with Duo was a welcome change.

"Heero? Earth to Heero, are you okay?" Duo waved a hand in front of my face and I jumped back to reality.

"I'm fine." I answered.

"Are you sure? You keep spacing out on me. Maybe I should have woken you up by tugging on something, rather than shaking you up this morning." Duo wiggled his eyebrows suggestively. I couldn't help but laugh.

"If you did that, I doubt we would be in the limo right now." Duo looked thoughtful for a moment then nodded.

"You're right about that. We would still be in the room if I did that. It would still be fun though. I mean any time with you is fun, Hee-chan, especially when we do our aerobics. " Duo beamed at me.

"It's always a pleasure to be right by your side my Duo, whether we are doing our aerobics or not. I love you." I reached over and brought his hand to my lips and kissed the back of his fingers. Duo's smile broadened and he brought his other hand up to caress my cheek softly. My eyes fluttered at the touch. It was so light and gentle, the warmth from his palm just seemed to seep into my skin and fill my heart with its heat.

I slowly brought my mouth closer to his and caressed his lips with mine, our lips just whispering against each other's, barely even touching. They were ghost kisses, hinting at what could be, but not taking. I waited for Duo to make the first move this time and he didn't disappoint.

Duo pressed firmly against my lips and climbed into my lap so he could access more of my mouth. He slowly nibbled across my bottom lip and kissed along the corners of my mouth as well before tapping my lips to suggest that he wanted to taste me. I opened up for him and felt his pink velvet tongue toy with mine.

He searched every crevice that he could, tasting me to the fullest. I enjoyed all the attention he was spending on me and tasted his unique flavor as well. Duo always smelled of lavender, most likely from his bath soaps and shampoos which were always herbal, but his taste was like no other.

The combination of flavors that were mine to savor alone gave me a desperate possiveness to make sure that Duo stayed mine. It was almost like I was intoxicated by his taste. Duo's taste was tart like a grapefruit, but sweet and rich like honey that ran warm and thick down my throat.

He was my addiction and I couldn't get enough of him. Our kiss ended as the limo halted and Collin called to us.

"Heero, Duo we have arrived outside of Niagara Falls entrance. I will let you out to explore it. What time should I pick you up again?"

"How about we just call you when we are finished?" Duo suggested. "I have my cell with me, so I'll call you when we are through."

"That'll be fine by me, sir." Collin got out of the driver's side and over to our door. I was still a bit dazed I admit, but Duo took my hand and led me out when Collin opened the door.

"Thanks Collin. We'll call you in a couple of hours." Duo said and heaved a satchel over his shoulder. I wasn't awake when he packed, so I began to wonder what was in it, as I observed its bulging proportions.

Duo led me away from the limo and Collin drove off, leaving us alone, just the way we enjoyed it.

Duo led me to the gates and told the guard there who we were. He let us in without a second thought it seemed. Of course, it didn't go unnoticed by me that Duo said we were friends of Quatre Winner; anyone associated with Quatre got special treatment it seemed.

We were ushered into the park and Duo lead me straight to the path that would take us to the falls. He reminded me of a kid at Christmas who is expecting to get the gift of their dreams and the expectation of such a gift is gleaming in their eyes. Duo seemed to be radiating with that same energy level as he pulled me along after him until I saw a wall of blue and white enter my field of vision. It was a sight to behold.

The blue hue of the water accented even more by the white clouds that seemed to rest right on top of the water. The white clouds were actually the spray of water created by the rushing waterfalls, the logical side of my mind said, but I soon shut that side off completely and just appreciated the beauty that nature had created.

"Isn't it fantastic Hee-chan?" I simply nodded. I was at a loss of words to describe such beauty; it was almost like trying to describe what I felt to see Duo standing in front of it with the waterfalls in the background. There would never be enough words in any language that could amount and describe what I felt at that moment.

I knew I was content and at peace, but every other racing emotion inside of me was running full force as well. My breath hitched in my throat and I felt as if I could cry tears of joy for how happy and complete I felt at that very moment.

"Heero, you're crying! What's wrong?" Duo asked alarmed. His face contorted with worry for me and he took my face in his warm soft hands and wiped away my tears that I hadn't even realized I was shedding.

"Nothing's wrong Duo. I'm just…so happy to be here with you and see all this beauty that surrounds us. You within this place makes it perfect."

"Nothing's perfect Heero, as much as I sometimes wish it could be it isn't." Duo told me sadly.

"That's where your wrong, my love. Any moment with you can be perfect and is in its own way. I'm not saying that everything is, but the little things that let me enjoy this moment with you, they are perfect even if it is only a second in time." I told him. He smiled at me and wrapped me up within his embrace. I felt warm and safe and clutched him closer to me, enjoying another tender moment with my only love.

>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> >>>>>>>>

Short chapter? Yes, I know, but I wanted to get it up and not have to chop it up to bits and pieces and have to edit a lot of it out. So please forgive the short length of it. I think I will up the rating to R soon. Since some of the stuff I want to write cannot be PG-13 level, no matter what I do and it really sucks that I have to edit out most the citrusy parts and have you all hunt for them. So sad….

5 or more reviews till next chapter or when I'm able to function. No sleep + art projects+ history exam= CHAOS!!! I love chaos, but when one has insomnia and is trying to stay focused it isn't so much fun anymore.

Special THANKS to Reviewers: Gacktosan, BluephoenixX2, Ahanchan, Tash, Nikkler, TKM, Somalichan, Ultra Rodimus, Camillian, Damien's-demonic-goddess, Ania-akatrickx, Vidalark, and Princess2000204.

Note to Princess2000204: I looked at your comment and then reread what I wrote in the last few chapters and you're right. My writing was very confusing to read at certain parts, but I promise they aren't going to pounce each other soon at all. I love sap!!!!
