Enjoy, drop me a line!

AC 197

The colony lights were dimming by the time Hilde finished filing the
week's invoices. She pushed the drawer shut, sighing. Three weeks
into the New Year, and she still hadn't seen Duo. He was off,
having his adventure with the guys, and she was here, alone, minding
the scrap yard. It wasn't that she was worried- she knew her Duo
would fight his fight and then return home- it was the helplessness,
the boredom. There was no Libra to sneak aboard, no mobile suit to
steal to fight beside him. She could only wait, lonely, for him to
come back. It wasn't easy. Put simply, she was missing him.

It didn't help that they had been about to have good tumble when Duo
got the call from Quatre that Relena had been kidnapped. Of course,
Duo's first thought went to Heero, while Quatre's went to their
Gundams. Hilde couldn't believe it.

"At least let me come too!" she had whined.

"Babe, I don't even know what's going on yet. I'm just gonna go
find Heero and see what he knows. If he needs backup, well-"

"But it's Christmas," Hilde wound her arms around his neck. "Can't
he save Relena on his own?"

Yet she knew it was the right thing for him to go. Duo was always
trying to do the right thing, even as the Gundam pilot she had met
and fallen for during the war. Damn those violet eyes, that sexy
hair, and that /amazing/ ass!

She groaned as she remembered the stroke of his hands on her arms,
his breath on her neck, and the promise whispered enticingly in her
ear.

"I have something for you, but I'll wait until I come back. And I
promise I'll pay ya back, babe- anything you want." That husky voice
of his had rendered both her knees and her resolve useless, and she
could only nod her assent before he kissed her again.

Hilde smiled to herself as she began to lock up. Moping was a waste
of time, especially when she should be picking and choosing what she
wanted him to do to her when he got home. Anything was a broad
term, and she intended to take full advantage. And what was that
something he wanted to give her? She hoped it was a new laptop. He
knew she needed one.

She closed up quickly, mind busily planning her reward. So far, it
involved whipped cream, lots of it, and blueberries. That night,
the dishes at the Maxwell-Schbeiker residence had never been washed
so cheerfully. Hilde hummed away as she scrubbed the pots,
anticipating when Duo would arrive. She pictured it perfectly. He
would enter, tired and hungry, and she would feed him before
straddling him in the chair and seducing him with a can of whipped
cream and her best teddy.

She froze, dishrag and pot in hand as she heard the front door
open. At the sound of his voice calling her name, she dropped both
and ran.

"Whoa, babe!" he cried, regaining his balance as she wrapped arms
and legs around him. "Hello to you too."

"You're home," she sighed, kissing his cheek. All thoughts of
cream, berries and teddies flew out the window, as Hilde felt his
skin against her lips.

"Hey, that's all I get?" He grinned before catching her mouth with
his. He tasted warm and faintly of Coca-Cola, sweetly familiar.
Hilde was dying to drag her braided lover off to the bedroom to make
good on his promise, but her conscience got the better of her.

"Are you hungry?" She asked through lidded eyes when he pulled away.

"Not with you looking at me like that," he nuzzled her
cheek. "Don't think I forgot my promise. I may run and hide-"

"But you never tell a lie," Hilde laughed. "Doofus."

"Just one question."

"Hm?"

"Where?"

Hilde kissed him softly. "The bedroom, of course. It's been so
lonely there without you."

"The bedroom it is, then," He swung her effortlessly over his
shoulder, swatting her rump for good measure before heading down the
hall to their room.

He laid her down slowly, the jest dying in his eyes as he pulled her
shirt over her head. Hilde tried to help, reaching for her bra.
But her fingers were useless and it took Duo's hands to get it off.
She was shaking in anticipation. It had been weeks and dear God she
needed him. She reached out, but he stopped her, his hand on her
cheek.

"Not yet. Right now, I just need to look at you."

Hilde smiled as Duo's fingertips mapped a trail down her neck and
across her body, his eyes drinking her in. He reached her pants and
helped her pull them off, coming back to trace the outline of her
cotton Brazilian. His gaze came up to rest on her face, and their
eyes met.

"God, Hil, you get prettier every time," he leaned forward, letting
their hands intertwine, and touched their foreheads together. Hilde
could only smile wanly, the smoldering heat in his eyes
breathtaking. They were so very blue, Duo's eyes. And they were
hers to keep.

She jutted her chin forward for a kiss, and he eagerly obliged,
letting her feed on his mouth and tongue. Hilde wrapped her arms
around his shoulders and pulled him close, relishing his full weight
on her.

"I'm crushing you, babe," he pulled away.

"No, you're not," Hilde grabbed two fistfuls of his hair and crashed
his mouth on hers to shut him up. She rolled him over so that she
straddled him, breaking away to tug off his clothes. He lifted his
arms for his shirt, and quickly wriggled out of his pants. Now it
was her turn to lean back and admire the body beneath her. He was
exquisite. The lamplight cast shadows across his torso, shading the
contours of his muscles and the ragged valleys of his scars. Her
eyes went to his hair, still in its braid.

"Can I take it out?" she asked.

"If you want," was his reply, handing the end to her. She made
quick work of the elastic and the plait, undoing the strands. His
hair was so soft, so slippery. His mane unleashed, Hilde let herself
fall over him. They gasped together at the feel of bare skin on bare
skin.

"I missed you so much," Duo lavished attention on her neck,
languidly planting open mouth kisses on her skin.

"How much?" She asked, eyes widening as he flipped her over.

"Should I show you?" he offered.

Hilde wrapped her legs around him, lifting her hips to grind against
his. "I think I can feel it," she sighed.

Duo moaned and covered her mouth with his. He slid his hand down her
stomach to her hips, making quick work of her underwear. Hilde cried
out as he quickly slipped a finger inside, swirling the appendage
against her slick walls. She bit her fist as he inserted a second
finger, sliding in and out slowly.

"Don't do that, Hilde," he commanded softly, removing her hand from
her mouth. He rose to kiss her, fingers still working their magic
on her core. Hilde held him close as he whispered, "Don't hold it
in, babe."

"Duo," she cried as his pace increased. The friction was amazing,
and she bucked when he added his thumb on her clit. The room
blurred and her body convulsed as the orgasm came quickly, taking
her by surprise. She let out a wanton groan as her walls clamped
around his fingers.

"Good?" he murmured in her ear.

"Not as good as the real thing," she answered, cheeky even when
spent from coming.

"I see," he replied, bending to take a pale breast into his mouth.
Hilde dug her fingers into his hair and pulled him closer, moaning
her approval. His hands moved behind her to grip her bottom,
fingers kneading the firm flesh there. He switched his mouth to her
other breast, and Hilde rubbed her leg against his hardness.

"Babe," Duo breathed against her chest. His mouth worked its way
back up to hers, and he positioned himself over her to grind their
hips together. "What do you want, Hilde?"

"You," she ground out against his shoulder. "Right. Now."

Duo smirked before divesting himself of his boxers. Finally free, he
guided himself to her center and entered slowly.

The feeling was delicious, as it always was. Hilde sighed as he
stretched her, filling her to the point of total bliss. They held
each other for a moment, caught in the awesome familiarity of their
joining, before Hilde rocked her hips and Duo began to move.

"My Hilde," he whispered in her ear. "I love you so fucking much."

"I love you too, Duo," she gasped as he filled her again and again.
There were no words to describe it. His mouth worked wonders, his
hands were amazing, but this, this was phenomenal. It overwhelmed
her every time how he made love to her, each time different, but
each time loving and divine.

She came hard, arching her back against the mattress and calling out
his name. He came with her, panting and shaking. She let him
collapse on top of her, stroking his head and kissing his temple
lovingly.

"Tired?" He asked her lazily.

"Ask a stupid question-" she laughed weakly. He rolled over and
pulled her close into their favorite position. Hilde curled up
against him and threw her leg over his hip. They were silent a few
minutes before she spoke again. "Duo- you won't leave anymore, will
you?"

"No. Not to fight. Gundams are gone, Relena's safe, and I'm betting
Heero'll be keeping an eye on her."

"Good." she snuggled deeper into his side, loving the feel of his
solid form beside her. She had missed this. They lay together,
enjoying the afterglow.

"Did I tell you I love you?" He asked quietly.

"Multiple times. But you know I can never hear it too much."

"And I can't say it enough. You know that, right?"

"I do now."

"Love me?"

"Always."

He stroked her back, and Hilde could almost see the pensive look on
his face. His eyes would be hooded and his mouth set and dear Lord
the boy was too scrumptious.

"Marry me, babe." He said suddenly into her hair. Hilde tried to
hit him, but found herself to satiated to move.

"Don't joke like that with a girl, stupid. Since when do you think
about marriage?"

"Since I fell in love with you. The ring is under the mattress."

"But-"

"It's what I wanted to give you, remember? I said I'd wait until I
came back. I'm not joking. Marry me, Hilde."

It took a moment for the words to sink in, for her to realize that
yes, he was serious. And so, she said the only thing she could.

"Of course, doofus."

He breathed a sign of releif, and she could feel his grin against
her hair. "Babe, you don't know how happy I am. I just hope you can
wait until morning for the ring."

"Why? I thought you said it's under the mattress."

"Exactly," he replied, snuggling against her and closing his eyes.
