New Haven

Chapter Forty-Six: About Time
Duo and Wufei crawled out of bed when they heard Trowa’s car leave the garage below them.
They utilized the bathroom before heading for the kitchen and the food they needed.
Quatre looked up with a scowl as he saw the other two men make their way to the kitchen. “It’s about time you got up. Do you know what time it is?”
Duo looked over at the blonde and yawned at him. He squinted at the microwave clock before answering. “Two o’clock. You’re lucky we didn’t stay in bed all day. We wanted to.” He muttered as he pulled the fridge door open as Wufei went about making some tea and coffee.
“Would you like a tea or coffee Quatre?” Wufei asked as he poured water into the kettle and coffee machine.
Quatre glared balefully at the two men ignoring him. “Tea would be nice.” He grouched as he sorted some papers on the coffee table before him. “I could have used your help earlier. It was hard enough explaining to Sakura that you needed sleep, I didn’t want to deal with Heero’s mother’s questions as well. I had to tell her that she couldn’t start on the renovations for us until Monday.”
Duo looked up from the fruit he was peeling. “Thanks Q. We didn’t intend for it to get so out of…”
“Control.” Wufei provided hiding a yawn of his own. “We didn’t.” He reiterated at the glare from the blond. “We didn’t know that we would spend nearly…”
Duo counted back and his eyes widened. “Nine hours.” He stated in amazement.
Quatre spluttered in amazement. “Nine Hours?” He nearly shouted.
“Nine hours of what?” Heero asked as he entered the room from the upper levels of the apartment.
“Sex!” Quatre shouted.
“Straight?” Heero questioned with a frown. “No sleep in between?”
Wufei and Duo looked at each other in silent conversation for a few minutes. “Yup.” Duo answered with a huge grin. He was very proud of his accomplishment.
“No wonder we were so sore.” Wufei murmured as he dug into the meal that Duo set before him. “Do you think we can top that on our wedding night?” He asked with a huge grin.
“Ohhh,” Duo murmured as he sat down with a wince. “I’m up for the try if you are.” He confirmed as he set to demolishing the food before him ignoring the two men gaping at him.
Heero turned to his blond lover in amazement. ‘Nine hours?!’ He mouthed.
‘Straight!!!’ Quatre mouthed back. Even with his two lovers he hadn’t managed that amount of time with out some sleep in between intercourse.
Wufei watched the interchange with a growing grin. He had told the truth to them and he loved that it was something that could push these two sex fiends off balance. Trowa was always complaining about there nympho tendencies for some time.
“You can’t be serious!?!” Quatre finally shouted.
Duo looked up and blinked at the blond in confusion. “About what?”
“Nine Hours Straight!!!”
Duo shrugged. “I don’t lie Q-man.” Duo muttered
“How could you go nine hours straight?” Heero growled. “Without sleep?”
“Don’t know. Just did.” Wufei muttered between bites of food and gulps of tea.
“But…but…but…” Quatre stuttered to a halt not finding the words he was looking for.
“It’s not fair!!!” Heero snarled. “Quatre and I are the nymphos!!!”
Duo choked on his food at Heero’s exclamation.
Wufei grinned and pounded carefully on his lover’s back. “Yes so Trowa informed me.” He answered dryly. He shrugged at the glare he received. “It’s not my fault if we out did you. Or the fact that there is three of you and only two of us.” He looked down at Duo with love shining from his eyes. “We didn’t intend for last night to happen. It was just a very, very special night.” He murmured pressing a kiss to the back of Duo’s neck that was in view because his braid was pulled over his shoulder.
Quatre and Heero glared in frustration at the two men ignoring them.
“Nine hours straight of sex!” A voice whispered from behind the wall that lead to the stair that go to the upper levels of the apartment.
“You have got to be kidding.” A female voice answered. “Why the hell aren’t they still asleep?”
“Beats me. But then again they are really, really in love with each other. That might have something to do with it.” The first voice answered. “Duo probably let Wufei take his cherry. Considering it was the first time with out coercion.”
Duo choked again at the words. “Thanks a lot Damian!” He growl/shouted to the teen.
“Oops!” Two voices uttered as one and footsteps thundered up the stairs.
Wufei rolled his eyes as eyes turned to him in astonishment. “You’ve seen some of his scars. You know he didn’t get them in his line of work during the war.” Wufei looked down at tensing of muscles beneath his hands. “It’s alright Duo. It doesn’t matter.”
Quatre noticed the tensing of muscles and flew across the room after he came out of his stupor. “I am so sorry Duo.” He murmured as he wrapped his arms around the tense man. “Wufei is right. It doesn’t matter. All that matters is that you are here and know that someone loves you so much!”
They all felt the steely arms wrap around them and Wufei chuckled as Heero made his presence known in his bear hug. “We will take you anyway you are. You are one of us. You will always be one of us.” Heero muttered into Wufei’s back, but the words were audible to all the men.
Duo felt the tenseness drain from his muscles at the words and warmth of the bodies pressed to him in love. He knew there was a reason that he loved Wufei and trusted these men. They loved him in their own way. He should have known that they loved him and the scars and his past wouldn’t matter to them. “It’s okay. I was being stupid. I knew that it didn’t matter. It was the fact that they told you I was uke that floored you.”
Quatre chortled. “You got that right. I thought it would be a lot longer before you became the bottom in this act.”
Heero grunted and loosened his arms around them. “I win.” He said calmly holding out his hand to his lover.
“Fuck.” Quatre swore as he pulled out his wallet. “Yeah, yeah, you only won because Trowa and I took the other times before you could.”
Wufei stared at the two. “You bet on when Duo would be…uke?” He asked slowly.
Heero turned and raised his eyebrow at the other Asian. “Yes. Why?”
Duo pressed his face into the counter and his shoulders visibly shook.
“Is something wrong Duo?” Quatre asked in concern as he handed over the money.
Duo lifted his face from the counter laughter filling the air. “Ohhh, ohhhh,” He gasped. “The look on Fei’s face! Ohh, ohh,” Duo slid from his chair and landed on the kitchen floor. “I…know…that…I…should…be upset…” More laughter erupted from him as he curled himself up and rolled over the floor. “But I can’t help it.” He shouted with laughter.
Wufei sighed and leaned against a counter watching his lover roll around on the floor. He glanced up to see the perplexed looks on the other men’s faces. “Anything that makes us look like fools will set him off.” He told them dryly. “I can’t believe it changed his mood so quickly.” He shrugged. “But you know the practical joker in him. Anything that is a joke is good for him.” Wufei eyed the man rolling around and settled to a sitting position on the floor. “How are the renovations going?” Wufei asked the other two men.
“Progressing nicely.” Quatre answered quickly. “Suki is very happy with the progress. As are the other architects.”
Duo’s laughter stopped suddenly at the conversation. “They are?”
“Yes very happy.” Heero added calmly.
“Great.” Duo grinned in delight. “The sooner we get more done the sooner we can get married.” Duo stated calmly as he sat up and cuddled closer to the man he loved.
