Note: I offered inthefire2002 a birthday lemon many weeks ago- just before the arm decided to act up. She wanted either a DB or CH lemon (even though she knows I'm the queen of the gloss-over lemon). I poked at both. The DB bunny wanted a Quatre/Trowa, but CH was somewhat receptive...
Anyway sweetie, at long last and very late, here is your Coffee House lemon. Though really, it's more of a lime. Or maybe just some limeade. It is 2x1, which I think you prefer (?), and I did squeeze a song in there for you. I wanted to stick the Vertical Horizon one in there that you love, but it didn't quite fit. So we have Savage Garden's Crash and Burn instead...
Hope it's okay... *hugs*
Reinforcement
Duo dashed up the stairs to Heero's apartment. His professor had canceled class, and so Duo found himself free a whole two hours earlier than expected. He was supposed to have met Heero at the apartment after class and then gone to the coffee house with him, but after a whole week of only being able to grab a few hours together, he wanted more time.
He reached the top of the steps and knocked on Heero's door. Heero should've come home an hour or so ago and started packing. He was supposed to be moving into the house with Duo and the other guys this weekend.
After a week of stolen moments between classes and work, Duo was ready to move Heero in all by himself if need be- he wanted more time. He wasn't sure how Heero felt about it... but he hadn't complained yet when Duo had managed to sneak away at other times during the week. Nor had he complained about moving so quickly. He told Duo that he wanted more time together as well, and Duo hoped that he wasn't saying it to be kind...
He mentally kicked himself. He then reassured himself that he'd only found Heero a week ago, so he was sure he'd get less codependent eventually...
Maybe in a year or five...
Heero opened the door. "Did you skip class?"
"Of course not," Duo sniffed at him. "It was canceled. Why? Don't you want to see me?" He meant it to be teasing, but he couldn't stop the questioning note that appeared in the last sentence.
Heero rolled his eyes and reached out to pull Duo inside. "You know I do. I was thinking about going down to campus to meet you after. This is better."
Duo closed the door and grinned. "I'm always glad to oblige. I thought I would help you pack?"
"Already done." Heero waved his hand at the neatly stacked boxes. "I don't have much- there's a few things left to go, but they're all things I need for either tonight or tomorrow."
Duo sat down on the bed. "Are you sure you want to do this? I did tell you about Trowa's coffee right? It's really undrinkable."
Heero sat down beside him and laughed. "I fully intend to make sure that I get up before Trowa and make the coffee." He reached out and slid his hand along Duo's cheek, understanding the motivation behind the question. "Besides, you'll be there. That's reason enough for me to want to move in."
Before Duo could reply, Heero kissed him, tugging Duo over to straddle his lap, trying to show him without words that he wanted to be with the other man. That he wasn't going to run off this time.
"Mm, sorry," Duo murmured when Heero let him. "I don't mean to be quite so insecure..."
"You have reason to be." Heero leaned backwards, pulling Duo down with him. "I told you- I knew we had to work on this. Positive reinforcement, right?" He smiled, coaxing a return grin from Duo.
"Right. Annnnd we have a few hours before we have to go to work...." Duo leaned down and claimed another kiss.
"So we do." Heero chuckled. "Feel like fitting a lesson in?" He let his fingers wander down Duo's side, slid them under the edge of Duo's sweater.
"Oh, I think so," Duo moved away a little so Heero pull his sweater off, then leaned back down to undo Heero's buttons. "What's the topic for today?"
Heero got distracted by the tiny kisses Duo was bestowing on his chest as his shirt slipped apart, so it was a few moments before he replied.
"That I'm yours..."
Duo's fingers stopped, he tilted his head up and met Heero's eyes. "Are you?" Duo asked, the teasing note gone from his voice.
"I always have been."
Duo slid back up Heero's body and placed his cheek against Heero's. Heero wrapped his arms around Duo and held him close. He knew that Duo knew intellectually that Heero had no plans to leave, but the other man had spent a year dealing with depression stemming from their separation. He had a lot to make up for...
"I always will be," he added. "I won't leave you alone again, Duo, I promise."
Duo lifted his head after a moment and captured Heero's mouth with his. The kiss was slow and gentle, an exploration that Heero welcomed. Duo's hand slid down Heero's side, making Heero shiver. He felt Duo smiling against his mouth and moved slightly so that Duo would be more comfortable.
Duo pushed his hips down, making Heero gasp. But when Heero slid his fingers down towards the button on Duo's jeans, Duo caught his hand before they reached their goal.
"Let me," he murmured, and slid downwards, his fingers undoing Heero's jeans, tugging them off, and then bending down between Heero's legs.
Heero closed his eyes at the first touch of Duo's mouth. He gave himself over to the sensations Duo invoked, barely registering it when Duo slid up beside him several minutes later, his free hand diving under the pillow.
"Glad you didn't pack this...." Duo murmured in his ear before sliding back down to his self-appointed task.
"I was hoping... uh..." Heero lost his train of thought as Duo's slick fingers brushed against him. He heard Duo chuckle and the resulting vibrations made him gasp.
Then Duo got serious and Heero couldn't think at all.
His blood was practically singing in his veins when Duo finally leaned back, letting his fingers slide away. "Ready?" He asked softly.
"Please..."
Heero's fingers tightened on the sheets beneath him as Duo lifted his hips and began a slow slide. He tried to push back, tried to get Duo to rush, but his lover wasn't cooperating. "Please," he tried again.
"We have time," Duo reminded him, slowing down even more.
"Duo..." He'd beg if he had to.
"Shh... don't rush the learning process..." Duo leaned over him, his mouth brushing Heero's neck, sliding further in. "Okay?" he asked in a whisper.
"Oh yes," Heero's eyes had closed again. He moaned as Duo hips began to rock against his in a slow rhythm.
Duo kept his pace slow, drawing it out as long as he could, caressing Heero with hands and lips as he worked, speeding up at the last when even he couldn't take the slow pace anymore. That was all Heero needed to push him over the edge, pulling Duo along with him.
They collapsed together, shuddering. A few minutes later and Duo raised his head to look at the clock. "Just enough time for a quick shower."
"I don't think I can move," Heero answered, eyes still tightly shut.
"Not even to shower with me? Not even so we can go to work and get it over with so we can come back here and do it again?" Duo teased and Heero lips curved into a smile.
"Now that's motivation."
"That was the idea." Duo laughed and started to slide away.
Heero caught him before he got very far, pulling him down and claiming a kiss. "You sound happier now than you did earlier." He said quietly and Duo's cheeks turned slightly red.
"Well, maybe I'm really learning something."
"Good." Heero smiled. "Me too."
Duo blinked at him for a moment, not understanding, but then he smiled. "Let's go shower," he said and pulled Heero to his feet. "We don't want to be late."

Heero twisted the knob on the machine, turning the milk into froth. A row of cups was waiting for him on the counter, he moved with his usual efficiency. Every cup deserved his attention.
And yet, his attention was wandering.
The music from the main room drifted in:
Let me be the one you call
If you jump I'll break your fall
Lift you up and fly away with you into the night
If you need to fall apart
I can mend a broken heart
If you need to crash then crash and burn
You're not alone
Looked like the lessons were working. For both of them....
