Disclaimer: The only thing I own in this little story is the plot and the OC's... the G-boys are not mine, but they make such lovely additions to the character line-up! The song 'Fly Away From Here' is owned by Aerosmith... it was the song that inspired this fic! I suggest you put it on and listen while reading the last scene to get an idea of what I mean... it's more the music than the lyrics that make it so powerful for me.
Warnings: Angst, Sap
Archived: Yep! Thanks Lev :)
"Come on, Heero! Man, you're worse than ME tonight!"
"I'm almost done," came the muffled reply through the bathroom door.
Duo shook his head and sighed. The longhaired boy had already checked his own appearance in the mirror three times in the past fifteen minutes. He snickered to himself; if it weren't for the fact that he just wanted to look good for Heero tonight, he'd say he was being vain. Looking in the mirror again, he had to admit that he looked pretty damn good. He hadn't braided his hair leaving it hang free, so it was softer around his face than usual, giving him a wispy look. He was wearing a long-sleeved black and violet swirled button-up shirt tucked into a tight pair of indigo blue jeans and his trademark black boots. He smiled as he touched the silver chain hanging around his neck.
Heero had bought the necklace for him while they had been out shopping for clothes that week. There was a tri-colored hummingbird charm on it that had an amethyst heart-shaped stone for its eye. Heero had said it was made for his violet-eyed lover, insisting that he buy it for his koi; of course, the matching necklace with a sapphire stone was around the Japanese boy's neck at that very moment. Duo's heart melted as he thought about how open Heero was with their love. The necklaces hadn't been really expensive, but they were absolutely beautiful. It meant so much to the violet-eyed boy, and he knew the symbolism meant something to Heero as well.
He'd never seen Heero so nervous about how they looked as he was tonight. He wouldn't even let Duo see what he was wearing. Of course, Duo knew whatever Heero wore would make the dark-haired boy look good; it was a foregone conclusion when someone was as sexy and handsome as Heero Yuy. Duo's pleasant thoughts were interrupted by a knock at the door. He furrowed his brows in puzzlement. Now who could that be? He headed out of the bedroom to the front door.
"Yo, D!" Kyle greeted as Duo jerked the door open. Toby stood beside him in the hall.
"What are you guys doing here? I thought we were meeting at the club," Duo asked, confused.
"Well, we decided to walk over with you," Kyle replied evenly. "Are you ready to go?"
Duo sighed again. "I am, but Heero has locked himself in the bathroom, and I can't seem to get him to come out." He rolled his eyes for emphasis, causing the two other boys to chuckle.
"Tell ya what," Kyle said, smiling at the longhaired boy affectionately, "I'll wait for Heero to finish up. You need to get to the club so you're friends aren't standin' around outside alone. Toby can go with you, and we'll catch up."
Duo considered this, turning to gaze towards the bedroom at the still-closed bathroom door. "Okay, that sounds like a plan." He walked to the bedroom doorway and yelled out, "Heero, Kyle and Toby are here. I'm gonna go ahead and leave with Toby while you finish gettin' ready. Kyle's gonna wait for you, k?"
"Okay, Duo. We'll be along soon," came another muffled reply.
"All right. See you there."
"Duo," Heero's voice called out, stopping the longhaired boy before he could walk away. "I love you."
Duo grinned happily. Those words always made him so warm. "Love ya too, Heero. Don't be too long."
With a sappy expression on his face, Duo walked back into the living room. "Okay, T. Let's go."
It was only a minute or two after Duo and Toby left when Heero opened the bathroom door and hollered at Kyle, "I didn't think you were ever going to get here! Are you going to help me or what?"
Kyle laughed as he made his way into the other room. Duo didn't have a clue what was in store for him.
"They did say 'nine', didn't they?" Quatre asked as he, Trowa, and Wufei reclined against the wall outside the club they were supposed to be meeting Heero and Duo at.
"Yes, nine," Trowa replied, looking at his watch again; it was almost nine-thirty.
"You know how those two are," Wufei observed dryly. "They probably got 'distracted' and are running late." He gave them a knowing look, making the blonde blush and the brunette shake his head.
"We're weren't THAT late," Trowa muttered absently as he glanced at his lover.
Quatre smiled sheepishly. "We can't help it that it takes so long to shower."
Wufei snorted. "Winner, if you think I'm that naive, you need to revise your opinion of me."
Trowa smiled. "Would you believe we ran out of hot water and had to wait for it to warm up again?"
"And I wonder just why that would happen?" the Chinese boy replied sarcastically before shaking his head. "I can't imagine what would take so long," Wufei continued, his kohl eyes glinting in the dim light of the street lamp. "It's not like it takes that much time anyway."
"What do you mean, it doesn't take much time? Wufei, you're obviously not doing it right then..." Quatre blushed when he realized exactly what he had just said. "I mean, well... um... you know what I mean!" His cheeks were bright red.
Trowa was stifling his laughter as he looked at his embarrassed lover. No matter how much they made love, or what interesting ways they enjoyed their sex life, Quatre always kept that boyish innocence about him; it was something Trowa loved dearly. "Wufei, I think what Quatre is trying to say is that it can take an awfully long time when you are as insatiable as he is."
"Trowa! No! That's not..." he stopped short when he saw the other two boys share an amused look. "You two! That's it... Trowa, you're staying with Wufei tonight!"
"Ooooh, Trowa's gettin' in trou~ble, Trowa's gettin' in trou~ble," came Duo's voice as he and another boy walked up to them.
"Maxwell, it's about time you showed up," Wufei commented before he was grabbed in an exuberant hug.
"Fei-kins!"
Wufei sighed dramatically before returning the embrace. "Why can't you call me by my proper name?"
Duo pulled away, an affectionate smile on his face. "Where would the fun be in that?"
"So this is the infamous Fei?" the other boy asked, a bright smile on his face as well, especially when Wufei gave him an indignant look.
"Okay, Toby. Introductions," Duo said happily. He pointed to the other three boys as he said their names, "Quatre Raberba Winner, Trowa Barton, and yes, Chang Wufei, or as a gaijin would say, Wufei Chang." Each boy nodded as they were acknowledged. Duo then looked at them and grinned. "And this is Toby Martin. The love of his life is waiting on the love of mine to finish getting ready."
"Oh, I was wondering where Heero was," Quatre admitted lightly. His eyes met with the brown ones of Duo's friend; the openness he found there put him at ease. There was warmth radiating from him, and contentment that made Quatre feel so secure being around him. He knew this boy was one of the reasons why Duo had managed to get along until Heero got there. He could tell Toby was going to be fun to be around. Duo was Quatre's best friend in many ways. It was nice to meet someone else like him.
Toby smiled. "You don't think he'd let Duo come here alone do ya?" he asked, winking at the blonde who had the prettiest aqua eyes he'd ever seen. If he hadn't already been in love with Kyle, he would definitely be tempted; of course, he had a feeling the tall brunette standing beside the other boy would have something to say about that. His suspicions were confirmed when Trowa placed a slightly possessive arm around Quatre. It wasn't done as a threat, just so Toby would know for sure. Toby had a feeling they were all going to be good friends. He already liked them.
"And who is the 'love of your life'?" Trowa asked pleasantly. He had seen the redhead trying to discern whether Quatre was taken or not, so he'd decided to leave no doubt. Not that he thought the other boy was seriously interested. He could see Toby was a lot like Duo in the flirting department, and it didn't bother him in the least. In fact, he couldn't wait to see how Wufei was going to react to more teasing.
"That would be Kyle Chapman," Toby drawled, winking at Trowa for good measure, just so he knew he was on equal footing. "Believe me, Heero is in good hands until they get here."
Duo hadn't missed the exchange, glad that they all seemed to be able to read each other easily. "Just as long as those hands don't do anything mine would," he replied, shifting closer to the redhead in spite of his threatening tone. Toby's smile broke out into an all out grin.
"Oh, come on, D. That would give us a reason to have some fun."
They looked at each other appreciatively for a moment, knowing the other three boys were watching them curiously, before they both collapsed into bouts of laughter.
"Don't tell me there is another YOU running around, Maxwell," Wufei groaned, a small smile on his face belying his horrified tone.
"Actually, Toby is much worse than I ever thought about being, ain't that right, T?"
"Oh, yes, much worse," he agreed wholeheartedly, giving Wufei another bright smile before he and Duo both began to laugh again. The three former Gundam pilots just shook their heads at them.
"Let me guess," Trowa queried, "Kyle is more like Heero?"
Duo thought for a moment. "Well, in some ways, yeah, I guess so. He and Heero are really close. You could say that if it wasn't for him, Heero and I might not be together right now."
"Oh really?" Quatre asked, a little shocked at the thought.
"Yeah," Toby said with a laugh. "Duo and Heero had a huge fight the first night we met Heero. Duo stormed out, and Heero was going to leave to go back to L1. Kyle went to see Heero then showed up at Duo's door telling him that he'd be making a mistake if he let Heero go." Toby gave Duo a look. "For once, Duo actually listened, and went to Heero. Only problem was that when Kyle went to check on Heero the next day, he found that he had checked out of the hotel room. Thinking Heero had left for good, my fearless lover went back over to Duo's apartment, ready to kick Duo's ass because of it. He was bound and determined to send Duo after Heero, even if it meant knocking some sense into him."
"Should have seen his face when Heero walked out of my studio," Duo snickered. "It was priceless."
Trowa raised an eyebrow at the longhaired boy. "You almost let Heero go? What could have possibly made you even think of doing that?"
Duo blushed. "I thought he had come to see me because of the doujinshi. I didn't know what his intentions were yet, and he was trying to seduce me to show me he had changed, and I was just being... well..."
"A complete idiot?" came the voice of a black-haired boy as he approached the group.
"Somethin' like that, Jess," Duo answered, smiling as he motioned the other boy forward. He turned to his former comrades. "This is Jesse Talbot." He introduced the other boys as he had to Toby.
Jesse nodded in greeting. "Any friends of Duo's and Heero's are friends of ours. Welcome to the crew."
"The crew?" Wufei asked, raising an eyebrow.
Trowa took in the newcomer's appearance. The boy was wearing a dark blue Henley, much like his yellow one, a pair of black leather pants, and black boots. A diamond earring sparkled from his left ear. There was something familiar about him that the former Heavyarms pilot couldn't place at first. All he knew was that he felt protective of him immediately. When he turned to look at Quatre, he saw something in his lover's eyes that confirmed what he was feeling.
Quatre leaned toward Trowa. "He's a lot like you," was all he said, but Trowa understood what he meant. It made Trowa realize even more why Duo felt so at home with these boys; they were all alike in many ways.
"Yeah," Toby explained to Wufei. "That's what we call ourselves. We're like family, but unlike most, you don't have to be born into ours, you just have to join our ranks."
Trowa looked from the redhead to Jesse, an amused look on his face. "How do you join exactly?"
Jesse smiled at the acceptance he saw in the tall boy's green eyes. "We adopt ya! You get a new name, and that, as they say, is that!"
"A new name?" Quatre asked, but the reply was cut short.
"Oh good! We're not too late!" came a feminine voice from around the corner. All eyes turned to see a pretty blonde girl and a handsome blonde boy make their way over to them. The girl was wearing a pair of blue jeans that accentuated her lovely figure, a multi-colored long-sleeved v-neck cropped sweater, and a pair of chunky heels. A delicate silver unicorn necklace hung around her neck. The young man with her, who was obviously a couple years older than the rest of them, was in a pair of dark blue jeans, a black button-down shirt tucked in, and black boot shoes.
"Cara!" Duo yelled, running to meet her. He grabbed her in a fierce hug, ignoring the startled look on her companion's face, and swung her around until she giggled. Once he'd set her down, she turned to motion the blonde boy forward. "This is my brother, Todd," she said in introduction. Duo didn't miss the look of apprehension on her face.
Wufei noticed the other boy's stance immediately. 'He certainly does not want to be here tonight,' he thought as he watched the blonde look at Duo suspiciously. 'Doesn't trust Maxwell any farther than he can throw him either.' Wufei had to smile. Someone was immune to the Maxwell Charm? Wonders would never cease. He found himself intrigued with the older blonde - he reminded him of someone from long ago for some reason.
"Oh, hey man, glad you could finally make it so we could meetcha," Duo said, ignoring the cold glare he received. He'd survived Heero's glares, so blondie's seemed tame in comparison.
"Just wanted to meet the Gundam pilots my sister keeps talking about... want to make sure it's safe for her to be in their company."
"Todd," the blonde girl grated out threateningly.
Duo smiled. This was certainly going to be an interesting evening. "Then come and meet everyone."
They walked over to the rest of the group. Duo introduced the other three Gundam pilots to the newcomers. Todd's gaze swept over them, one by one. The blonde, known as Quatre, was wearing a pair of dark blue jeans, a cream button down shirt that wasn't tucked, a brown choker around his neck, and a pair of brown loafers. His 'companion', Trowa, was in a light blue pair of jeans, a yellow Henley shirt, a pair of loafers, and a leather wrist strap on his left wrist. Todd's eyes met those of the one named Wufei, and he felt a shiver go through him. Kohl took in ice blue, appraising him just as Todd was all of them. Wufei was wearing a pair of black dress pants, a red silk long-sleeved shirt, and pair of black wingtips. There was a knowing look in those dark eyes that frightened Todd. He didn't like the fact that the black-haired boy seemed to be able to see right through him. He caught slight amusement in those obsidian depths before he pulled his eyes away... almost reluctantly.
"Well, I guess we should all just go on inside. I'm sure Heero and Kyle will be able to find us," Duo said.
"Where are those two, anyway?" Cara asked, smiling shyly at Jesse as their eyes met and held for a moment. There seemed to be something between them tonight that neither one could explain. Cara felt her resolve falter as Jesse smiled back at her, his eyes softening with affection. She wanted to tell him how she felt, but looking at her brother, she knew she had to wait. Perhaps tonight would help Todd see...
The exchange did not go unnoticed by Todd. He wanted to just haul Cara away right then, but decided not to. He didn't want to judge the former pilots without giving them a chance. He didn't exactly hate Jesse either, but he couldn't help but feel awkward around the other boy because of what had happened. No matter how hard he tried, it always ended up with him getting angry, and he just tried to avoid Jesse to keep from doing or saying something he couldn't take back. Todd didn't want to be the bad guy; he just wanted to protect his sister.
"My lover seems to be having some kind of crisis getting ready tonight," Duo replied, laughing lightly. "Kyle stayed with him to coax him out of hiding as quickly as possible."
They all laughed at that, except for Todd, who was eyeing Duo carefully. "Your lover? You can't be more than seventeen."
Duo grinned. "Yep. I'll be eighteen this coming year, but I've been a legal adult since I turned sixteen. Fighting in a couple of wars does have its advantages."
Todd narrowed his eyes. "Where are your parents? Seems like they'd have a say in that."
Everyone else tensed, waiting for Duo to put the other boy in his place, but it was Jesse who spoke up. "He's an orphan, Todd, just like Kyle is. He's been on his own since he was eight years old. Believe me, he's been through enough to merit his freedom."
The tension between the older blonde and the black-haired boy was easy to see. Duo knew he had to do something before it ignited into more. "Yeah, but Todd has a right to know, Jess. It's okay, really," the longhaired boy intervened. "I would want to know if I was Cara's brother too. Feel free to ask any questions you like, Todd. I really want you see that you have nothing to fear from us where Cara is concerned. She's like a little sis to all of us." Duo amended that in his head with 'Except Jesse.'
Todd nodded, his gaze moving from Jess back to Duo. "Thank you. I don't mean to be... unfriendly. I just want what's best for my sister." He didn't miss the look Cara gave him.
Duo nodded. Looking around at his 'family', he grinned. "Come on, guys! The night is young, and so are we. Let's go have some fun!" With that, he led them all into the club. No one noticed the two shadows making their way to the back door in the alley.
"We've got some new members in the crew tonight!" came Kyle's voice over the mic when they entered.
Duo looked up, completely surprised to see the other boy already there. Where was Heero? He scanned the crowd, wondering if Heero had just gone to get a table, but he didn't see his lover anywhere.
"Let me introduce the newbies," Kyle said with a grin. "The short-haired blonde is Sand Cat, the tall brunette is Teasin' Tro, the raven-haired looker is Fiery Fei, and the other blonde is Captain Cara's bro, Morgan Ice."
Each 'newbie' blinked at their new designation. Quatre turned to Trowa and smiled happily. "We've just been adopted."
Trowa smirked; he was pleased by the name he was sure Heero had something to do with. "So it seems."
"Maxwell! This injustice is not to be borne!" Wufei yelled, his face red more from embarrassment than from anger. He felt an icy blue stare and turned to see Todd giving him an amused look, which only made it worse. He looked back at Duo, wanting to throttle him.
Duo grinned, loving every minute of Wufei's discomfort. "I love you too, Fei-kins... welcome to the family!"
"Gah!" was the black-haired boy's reply.
Todd took in the scene, feeling extremely satisfied at Wufei's distress for some reason, and then looked over at his sister. "Captain Cara? Morgan Ice?"
Cara smiled at him. "You've been accepted, even though you've done nothing but act like an ass so far."
Todd opened his mouth to retort when Kyle's voice came over the speakers again. "Would the Rhythm D please come to the dance floor... your party is waiting."
All eyes turned to Duo, who looked up at the boy in the DJ booth in utter confusion.
"Go on," Toby said to him. "Believe me, you'll be glad if you do."
Duo gave Toby a startled look then turned to the others. "Go find a table, guys. I'll be back in a sec."
As Duo walked away from them, Toby grinned at the group. "I seriously doubt that. This is going to take a tad bit longer." Before anyone could ask any questions, the redhead was leading them to a large booth.
Duo made his way to the floor. Looking up at Kyle, he saw the other boy motion him to the center. Almost as soon as he stopped, music began to play. It was a familiar song, one that he had listened to countless times, especially while drawing the doujinshi, but for some reason, it seemed darker, more seductive tonight. His eyes moved to take in what was happening... and that's when he saw him.
Heero Yuy walked towards him, looking like a wet dream come true. Duo let his eyes rake over the other boy as Heero moved to the slow haunting sound of the music. The former Wing pilot was wearing a sapphire blue short-sleeved shirt that shimmered as he moved. He was poured into a pair of black vinyl pants and had on the black biker boots they'd bought him that week. He looked incredible, but it wasn't his clothes that took Duo's breath away; Heero's hair had been styled with gel, its wild look accentuated by the glossy shine, and if that wasn't enough, he had just a touch of kohl lightly lining his eyes, making them even more vivid than usual. Duo was captivated. As the lyrics began, his whole world narrowed to the boy in front of him.
//Gotta find a way, yeah, I can't wait another day, ain't nothin' gonna change, if we stay 'round here//
Heero swayed his hips as he reached out a hand to caress Duo's cheek. He turned so he had his back to Duo for a moment then turned again so he was facing Duo's left side. The longhaired boy gasped as Heero's eyes met his; the look there was so intense, Duo felt his heart skip a beat. Heero danced so his hips brushed against Duo as he moved. Then he turned once more, his back to Duo's as the song continued.
//Gotta do what it takes, cuz it's all in our hands, we all make mistakes, yeah, but it's never too late to start again//
Heero pressed against Duo, their leather-clad bodies rubbing together sensually. Heero leaned back against Duo, his head finding the other boy's shoulder for a moment before he turned again so he was facing Duo's back. He ran a hand down it slowly until he reached the other boy's leather pants, caressing his hips suggestively before moving closer to his lover.
//Take another breath, and say another prayer//
Heero slid his hand around Duo's waist, pulling the other boy to him as he gyrated his hips in time to the music. He buried his face in Duo's hair, rested his head on the longhaired boy's shoulder as Duo leaned back into him, letting the music take over.
Duo remembered that first night Heero had danced with him without him knowing as they moved together, swaying like they were making love in slow motion. The feeling of the other boy's body against him was intoxicating, and the music only accentuated the sensuality that Heero was pouring into his movements.
//And fly away from here, anywhere, yeah, I don't care. We'll just fly away from here, our hopes and dreams are out there somewhere. Won't let time pass us by, we'll just fly//
Their friends were watching in rapt amazement. Quatre turned to Trowa, an incredulous expression on his face. "I can't believe it!"
Trowa smirked. "Believe it... and that means I just won that bet, love," the green-eyed boy said, leaning over to kiss Quatre's nose before turning his attention back to the two incredible young men dancing.
"Kisama, but I never would have thought Yuy could look like that," Wufei whispered, awe in his voice.
"He does look totally hot," Toby observed. "Kyle did a good job with the hair."
Jesse laughed. "I figured you guys had something to do with this. It's great. For once, Duo was taken by surprise."
Cara giggled. "Yeah. This is just the kind of thing Duo needs."
Todd sat silently watching. He had to admit, Duo and his lover really looked good together. One could actually feel the emotion between them. He cast a casual glance at Wufei, wondering absently if the other boy could dance like that. He quickly quelled that thought, forcing himself to look back at the dance floor.
//If this life gets any harder now, it ain't no never mind, you got me by your side//
Heero had his back to Duo's again. Then he turned, moving to face the boy's other side, his hips brushing Duo's as they had before, one hand going to Duo's hair to run the length of it as his other hand caressed Duo's arm. Duo was moving in counterpoint to Heero's motions by now, creating an erotically beautiful scene as if unfolded.
//And any time you want, yeah, we can catch a train and find a better place, yeah, cuz we won't let nothin' or no one keep bringin' us down//
Heero turned to dance with his back to Duo again, his hands reaching behind him to slide down the side of Duo's thigh lightly. He turned again, moving to where he was in front of Duo once more. His electric blue eyes smoldered with unrepressed passion as they gazed into dark violet. The desire could be felt all over the club as they moved together before Heero turned once more, his back to Duo once more.
//Maybe you and I can pack our bags and hit the sky//
Duo couldn't resist those swaying hips. He moved forward, sliding his arms around his lover's waist, letting his hair swing around the other boy's shoulders teasingly. He let his body follow Heero's, reveling in the feeling of completeness that was surrounding him as he let everything but the beauty of the moment fall away. He suddenly felt Heero reach back, strong hands gripping Duo's thighs as the dark-haired boy let his head fall back on Duo's shoulder again. It was a surrendering. They moved like that for the next few moments as the song played.
//And fly away from here, anywhere, yeah, I don't care. We'll just fly away from here, our hopes and dreams are out there somewhere. Won't let time pass us by, we'll just fly//
Heero turned to face Duo once more. It was almost time... almost. He moved closer to Duo, the other boy dancing tandem to him so that they weren't actually touching, just barely missing each other in a sexy teasing motion. He reached out, letting his hands feather over Duo's face, his fingers barely grazing down those cheeks and over those inviting lips before trailing down the other boy's throat. Duo closed his eyes to savor the feeling before looking back into those blue depths that held his soul.
//Do you see a bluer sky now, you can have a better life now, open your eyes. Cuz no one here can ever stop us, they can try, but we won't let them, no way//
They were lost to anything but each other, their eyes promising everything, their bodies answering all the questions either one had ever had. It wasn't just physical either. Both could feel something happening to them on a much deeper level, binding them to one another in a way neither one had thought possible. It was frightening and fantastical at the same time.
//Maybe you and I can pack our bags and say goodbye//
Heero pulled Duo's hands to where they were securely around his waist. He held them there, his thumbs caressing Duo's as he moved his body to finally grind against the other boy's. From chest to thigh, they were in blissful contact, Heero looking up into Duo's face as he smiled almost blindingly. Duo knew at that moment that something was about to change between them... forever.
//And fly away from here//
Heero let himself fall backwards completely, his arms outstretched as if in flight.
He let the feeling of Duo's hands, strong and loving, catching him, releasing him from the constraints of his own self-control. Opening himself completely, he allowed all of the emotions he had ever longed to feel break free in his heart. It was something he'd never thought he'd ever have, but Duo had given it to him so easily, so completely, so perfectly, and Heero had to give it back to his lover the only way he knew how; he gave him this moment of blind trust.
Duo was a little surprised by the sudden movement, but his hands held to his lover securely as he watched the young man he loved let go. He then understood what this meant. With a passion the violet-eyed boy had never seen before, Heero had embraced his own fears, finding the strength to fly on those broken wings Duo had always known were hidden deep inside. Tears filled Duo's eyes as he watched that beautiful face give into what the other boy had fought against for so long. Flying was an addiction; Duo knew Heero would never be completely grounded again. He let his own heart soar, joining Heero's where they would always have each other... the place where broken wings were mended.
//Anywhere, honey, I don't care. We'll just fly away here, our hopes and dreams are out there somewhere. Fly away here, yeah, anywhere, honey, I don't, I don't, I don't care//
Heero let the euphoria fill him as he pulled himself back up gradually. Placing one arm then the other behind Duo's neck as he let the upward momentum take him towards the longhaired boy who had taught him to trust enough to let his heart fly unfettered. With all that he was and all that he had become, he threw himself into his lover's arms as he claimed his lips in the most passionate kiss Duo Maxwell had ever had in his life. They melted against each other, both lost in the clouds.
//Yeah, we'll just fly//
