CHAPTER SIX: I CAN'T LIVE WITH YOU



// I can't live with you

But I can't live without you -

I can't let you stay

But I can't live if you go away

I don't know just how it goes

All I know is I can't live with you



I'm having a hard time

I'm walking a fine line

Between hope and despair

You may think that I don't care -

But I traveled a long road to

Get a hold of my sorrow

I tried to catch a dream

But nothing's what it seems



Love is saying baby it's all right

When deep inside you're really petrified

Lover turns to hater

On this escalator



I can't live with you

But I can't live without you

I can't breathe - if you stay

But I can't bear you to go away

I don't know what time it is

All I know is I can't live with you



We're stuck in a bad place

We're trapped in a rat race

And we can't escape

Maybe there's been some mistake

We're trying to make a high score

We're walking through a closed door

And nobody's winning -

We're just sinning against ourselves



Hold on baby tell me it's all right

Anger's breaking from the hurt inside

Passions screaming hotter

Doin' what we gotta do - yeah



I can't live with you, I can't live with you

I can't live, I can't live

I can't, I can't live with you

But baby I'll never ever leave you



I can't live with you

But I can't live without you -

Cause I'm in love with you

And everything about you



I can't live with you

No I just can't live, I just can't live,

I can't live with you,

And I can't live without you

Through the madness, through the tears

We've still got each other

For a million years //



(I Can't Live With You, Queen)



Staring up at the man who had landed on him rather painfully, Heero found that any words he might have said were suddenly wiped from his mind, all his attention now riveted on the swirling amethyst pools of emotion that were Duo's eyes. In the braided man's eyes so many emotions were present that Heero felt like he would drown. Yet one emotion showed through the most at the present moment; Impatience. So, being the smart man that he was, Heero decided to answer.

"…"

Waiting for the man below him to respond, Duo's mind was quickly forming questions about his presence in his apartment. Pushing his mind back to the subject at hand, Duo focused all his attention to the man below him, who had yet to answer his question, and soon regretted it. Just the memories of their bodies being this close made him aroused, and he could feel himself slowly becoming hard the longer he lay on top of the Japanese man. Quickly rolling off, he fell to the carpeted floor on his back and blinked when Heero looked over the edge of the sofa at him. Glaring up, he demanded again, "What the hell are you doing here?!"

Not missing a beat this time, Heero answered truthfully, "To see you."

Blinking in surprise at the emotion of… was it care?, in his voice, Duo covered his confusion with cynical remarks; "What, so you could laugh at me? Look, the great Duo Maxwell reduced to serving pizzas! And, forgetting to take out said pizzas and needing to be saved from smoke inhalation by his past lover! Is that why you came here?! To mock me like the bastard that you are?!"

Growing angry at his accusations, Heero spat back, "No, but maybe I should of. It IS rather humorous to see you make an ass of yourself. Well, more than you usually do, that is." Glaring at each other, the two men never moved an inch, keeping their hateful stares trained on the other for several minutes. However, once Heero realized what they were doing, he sighed and moved from the couch, making his way to the door. Running after him, Duo pinned the man against the wall with his arms on either side of him, demanding a third time, "Why the FUCK are you here?!" Blinking up at him, Heero answered instead, "I read your notebook."

"Notebook?" Duo asked, eyes showing his confusion for a moment before he glared once more and asked, "What the hell does a notebook have to do with anything?!"

"The blue notebook that was in the nightstand drawer by our bed in Houston??" Heero questioned, wondering if he even remembered the old notebook at all.

"W-What?" Duo asked, his arms falling to his sides softly as he blinked at the somewhat shorter man. "You read that? But, I thought that I brought it with me…" Turning, he walked into the kitchen and sat at a chair, his back to the Japanese man, hands on his head. Closing his eyes, he took a deep breath and asked, "How much did you read?"

"All of it." Heero answered him, slowly walking to where he was seated. Groaning, Duo slumped his shoulders and stated, "Well, now you know why we broke up, right?" Jumping as a pair of arms snaked over his chest, Duo felt Heero's own chest rumble when he said, "Hai. We broke up because of a misunderstanding."

"Misunderstanding?" Duo asked, his voice sounding lost. What had he misunderstood? Heero and Wufei were an item, right? But, then, Wufei had seemed offended when he had asked him if he was Heero's lover… So, had he been wrong? Had he just jumped to conclusions when he saw that picture?

"Hai. I have only ever loved one person, and I will never let them leave me because of something as inconsequential as this."

Blinking, Duo asked, "So, you and Wufei weren't together?" Shaking his head, Heero answered him, "Not even for a night."

"So… Can we try to start over on the whole relationship thing?" Duo questioned the man holding him, leaning his head back to rest against the strong chest of his one-time lover. And hopefully, future lover. Smiling, Heero nodded, burrowing his nose in Duo's thick hair, saying to the other man, "Yes, we can start over from the beginning, if you want."

Grinning, Duo asked, "You mean, with the whole giggling, and holding hands thing?" Frowning, Heero informed the braided man, "I don't giggle."

"You do when I tickle you…" Duo said, suddenly jumping from the chair to pin the other man to the ground, quick fingers going to his sides and tickling him ceaselessly. Wriggling underneath the long-haired man, Heero gasped out, "P-Please… Stop… Duo…" Smiling down at his messy-haired lover, Duo leaned down to place his lips on Heero's gently, giving the other man a chaste kiss. Pushing his head up, Heero quickly changed it into one of passion by licking his tongue over Duo's lower lip and begging entrance. Obliging, Duo opened his mouth and was instantly battling for dominance over who could tongue the other the best.

Feeling the need for air, Heero pulled back, eyeing the swollen lips that Duo now had and smirking when he saw that the other man was clearly wanting more. Leaning forward, he planted a soft kiss on his lover's cheek, saying, "I love you." before placing his lips over Duo's once again. Keeping the kiss simple this time, they were able to let their hands do most of the work, somehow discarding Duo's shirt and Heero's socks and shoes without ever separating. Pulling away, Duo eyed his Japanese lover and said, "I really missed you. When I thought that you had cheated on me…"

"Shh…" Heero broke in, rubbing his hands up and down Duo's back soothingly. Closing his eyes, Duo leaned forward into Heero's warmth and breathed deeply, savoring the unique smell that was Heero's alone. Moving his hands, he pulled Heero's shirt above the man's head, saying, "I also missed these types of afternoons…" Removing Duo's pants in much the same way that the braided man had removed his lover's shirt, Heero stated, "And nights… And mornings…"

Standing, Duo grabbed Heero's waist and pulled the Asian man towards his bedroom door, pausing beside the doorframe to get in some passionate kissing, each roaming their hands over the other's body. Pulling his lover to his bedroom, Duo fell back onto his bed, eyes riveted on the sight of Heero removing his spandex. Just the sight of the other man peeling the tight shorts from his well defined form got the braided man hot and hard…again. Feeling his boxers becoming much too tight for him, Duo stood hastily and pulled the underclothes down and kicked them away from him. Turning to see Heero admiring his body, Duo pulled the end of his braid into his hand and began toying with it nervously. "What?" he asked, sounding very unsure of himself. Picking up on this, Heero walked forward and enveloped him in a gentle hug, telling him, "We don't have to do this tonight, if you don't want to. I'm just content to have you back in my arms…"

"Are you shitting me?!" Duo exclaimed, pulling back only far enough so he could look his lover in the eye. "I wanna do this! I just didn't really like you ogling at me…"

Smiling slightly, Heero stated, "But you do it to me all the time…"

"That's different!" Duo protested, "It's different when I do it to you, Hee-chan!"

"Of course it is…" Heero agreed, tracing one finger down the braided man's cheek. Closing his eyes at the touch, Duo asked, "Hey, Hee-chan?"

"Hn?"

"Can we do it?"

"Do you want to?" Heero asked, stopping his finger at Duo's chin and beginning to trace it down the man's chest.

"Oh gods yes…" Duo said as Heero started to tease at his right nipple, flicking it with his finger. Making a noise of agreement, Heero enveloped said right nipple with his mouth, replacing his finger with his tongue. Moaning, Duo fell back onto the bed, Heero expertly straddling him and kissing his body. Making his way down Duo's chest, Heero stopped suddenly and asked, "Lube?"

"Bottle of lotion… in the bathroom… second drawer on the left…" Duo said, watching as Heero climbed off of him and walked into his bathroom, returning seconds later with the large tube of lotion. Throwing it onto the bed, the Japanese man climbed on top of his lover once more and began to suck and nip at the long-haired man's belly button. Finally reaching the proudly erect cock, Heero licked away the small line of pre-cum and enveloped the swollen member in his mouth, swirling his tongue around several times, each time making Duo thrust into his mouth. Placing his hands on Duo's hips, Heero halted these movements, and began to suck harder, bringing the braided man below him right to the edge, but never giving him the release that he desired.

Moaning out such, Duo begged for Heero to take him, to fill him once again. Pulling away from the wetness of Duo's penis, Heero took the tube of lotion in his hands and squeezed a liberal amount into his hands, covering his fingers with the cool substance. Positioning his fingers at Duo's hole, he gently entered his lover, waiting for the man to become accustomed to the feeling of his two fingers before he began to scissor his fingers, stretching and prepping the braided man for the actions to come. Adding a third finger, Heero began pumping his hand in and out from Duo's tightness, feeling himself grow even harder with each moan that came from the long-haired male. Pulling his fingers from Duo's body completely, Heero squeezed more of the lotion from the tube and quickly covered himself, then straddled Duo and kissed him roughly as he forced himself into the opening.

Allowing the other man to adjust to this new, yet long missed feeling, Heero waited until Duo pushed his hips up, their signal that Heero could begin moving. Pulling out, Heero stopped once his tip was the only part still inside of his lover, then slammed back inside, hitting Duo's sweet spot on the third try. Building up his rhythm, Heero took Duo's length in his hands and began pumping the other man, once again bringing him to the edge where he had been earlier. Closing his eyes, Duo saw small spots in the back of his eyelids as he yelled out Heero's name and let loose in the other man's hands, his inner walls tightening, causing the other man to reach his limit and shoot forth into him. Sagging onto Duo's chest, Heero pulled himself out and rolled to the side. Kissing the other man's lips, he smiled softly when the braided man said, "Love you." before he fell off into a light sleep.

"I know Koi… I know…" Heero stated as he watched the even breaths coming from the sleeping man.

Waking up the next morning to the sunlight in his eyes (he would have to remember to cover the window with the curtains), Duo's body jumped in surprise when he felt something firmly holding onto his waist. Craning his neck, his surprise was relieved, however, when he saw that Heero was sleeping peacefully beside him. Turning oh-so carefully, Duo faced his lover and gently kissed his lips. Pulling back, he blinked in surprise when he saw two Prussian eyes focused on him intently. Smiling, he asked, "Sleep well?"

"Very." the other man answered, tightening his arms around Duo's waist. Kissing Heero's nose, Duo said, "Yeah. Me too…" Taking the other man's lips with his own, they began another session of tonsil hockey, only this time they were interrupted by the growling of Duo's stomach.

"Hungry?" Heero asked, his lips pulled into a small smile. Grinning sheepishly at him, Duo nodded and was pushed back onto his back when he tried to get into a sitting position in the bed by his lover. Staring questioningly at him, all he got was the order to stay in bed and go back to sleep.

"But, Hee-chan, I'm hungry…" Duo protested as the other man stood and pulled the blankets back over his body. Frowning slightly, Heero instructed him, "I'll be back with food in a moment. Just wait for me."

"Always." Duo whispered as he laid his head back onto the pillow, watching as the nude man made his way to the door and closed it behind him. Sighing, he decided that he might as well try to sleep, and was soon snoozing away while Heero cooked breakfast for the both of them.

Here are the lyrics to Under Pressure (the Rah Mix), by Queen and David Bowie (duh!) I hope that you understand why I used this as a title now! (key: Freddie Mercury, David Bowie, Queen. Stuff can be combined. Ex: this would be Freddie Mercury and Queen)

You say New York, New York is dangerous

Cause you read that where you may

Even a blind man could see that's not so

Love love love love love...

Ray

People on streets

Ha ha haa ey

Mm ba ba de

Um bum ba de

Um bu bu bum da de

Why don't we give love that one more chance?

Pressure pressure pressure pressure pressure

Pressure pressure pressure pressure pressure

Pushing down on me

Pressing down on you no man ask for

Under pressure that brings a building down

Splits a family in two

Puts people on streets

Um ba ba be

Um ba ba be

De day da

Ee day da - that's o.k.

It's the terror of knowing

What the world is about

Watching some good friends

Screaming 'Let me out'

Pray tomorrow - gets me higher

Pressure on people - people on streets

Day day de day day de

Day day de day day de

Day day de day day de

Day day de day day de

Day day de day day de

O.k.

Chippin' around kick my brains around the floor

These are the days it never rains but it pours

Ee do ba be

Ee da ba ba ba

Um bo bo

Be lap

People on streets - ee da de da de

People on streets - ee da de da de da de da

It's the terror of knowing

What this world is about

Watching some good friends

Screaming 'Let me out'

Tomorrow - gets me higher higher high

Pressure on people - people on streets

Turned away from it all like a blind man

Sat on a fencebut it don't work

Keep coming up with love but it's so slashed and torn

Why - why - why?

Love love love love love love love

Insanity laughs under pressure we're breaking

Can't we give ourselves one more chance

Why can't we give love that one more chance

Why can't we give love give love give love give love

Give love give love give love give love give love

'Cause love's such an old fashioned word

And love dares you to care for

The people on the (People on streets)edge of the night

And loves (People on streets) dares you to change our way of

Caring about ourselves

This is our last dance

This is our last dance

This is ourselves

Under pressure

Under pressure

Pressure
