Longing1: The Road Less Traveled
Title: Longing 1: The Road Less Traveled
Author: Befanini *)
Disclaimer: I have absolutely no rights whatsoever. For bittersweet daydreaming purposes only. XD
Rating: T/M for language. Shounen-ai.
Summary: “Love at first sight is easy to understand. It’s when two people have been looking at each other for a lifetime that it becomes a miracle.”
A/N: If you’re not familiar with my fics by now, be advised that I write SxGxS – sweetxgoofyxsexy 3x5x3. Or else it’s bittersweet angst, as this one is. In either case, I lean to *serious* shounen-ai, as opposed to just the grudging lust typical between Sanzo and Gojyo. So feel free to read something else if you’re a purist. Otherwise, enjoy…
P.S. I have only watched Gensomaden once, on top of which I *missed* the first four eps (baka!!!), so please forgive any errors in describing the temple setting. I would appreciate any corrections. Thanks.
09/18/05: As it was pointed out to me, I made a slip-up when labeling this fic. The \'lime\' shouldn\'t be in the summary. My apologies.

Prologue
He sat at his desk staring out the window at the magnificent dawn of another day. The forest surrounding Kinzan Temple was shrouded with morning mist, and all was quiet save for the first gay twittering of birds and the sound of someone sweeping the courtyard. Slowly the sun rose to pierce the mist, sending bright rays of light filtering through the treetops to dapple gold on the cobblestones and the central fountain. The faint sound of the monks’ morning chants reached his ears, and already the pile of paperwork before him beckoned. Still, the piercing purple eyes lingered outside, resting finally on the road that snaked and coiled up the mountains, leading to the temple… and in his throat welled an expectant, longing feeling that he found himself powerless to deny.
And then he shrugged, unaware of the small sigh that escaped his lips. If he came, he came. That was all. And if he didn’t, well… tomorrow was another day. With a rueful shake of his head at his uncharacteristic melancholy, he turned determinedly to give the pile of papers his full, proper attention. Just another goddamn day in the life of Toua Genjyo Sanzo Houshi Sama. What the hell.
