Epilogue. Heaven
Is A Place On Earth

(Belinda
Carlisle)

"So, Dee, are you ready to celebrate your
first Thanksgiving together with me in our apartment?" Ryo asked as he
lazily ran his hand in circular caresses across Dee's chest. Ryo was sitting on the
couch, cradling Dee's
head in his lap. Dee
was lying down, his long legs stretching out over the couch cushions and
draping over the armrest as he lounged contentedly against Ryo.

He smiled and
looked up at Ryo, basking in the gentle loving touches from his usually timid
partner. "I'm as ready as I'll ever be," Dee said contentedly. "Besides,
you did most of the cooking. I just sat back and admired the view."

Ryo didn't miss
the subtle hint of lust present in Dee's voice and it caused him to blush furiously as he
lowered his head, his honey blond bangs falling across his face and his dark
lashes lowering demurely over his dark eyes.

Seeing that he
had inadvertently embarrassed his shy lover, Dee relented his pursuit of his
partner for the moment. "Wow, can you believe how much has happened to us
and we've still managed to get through it all together?" he asked softly,
amazed.

Ryo reflected
back over the events of the weeks after the fateful accident. "Well Dee, our relationship grew stronger
when it was put to the test. We trusted and believed in each other and overcame
all odds - together. We discovered just how much we meant to each other and
swore never to take that love for granted ever again. We're lucky in that
respect. Most people don't know what they've got until it's gone. We got a
second chance to be together and to reclaim everything that we had before,
gaining more in the process. I don't ever want to come close to losing you
again. I'll spend every day reminding you that I love you," Ryo replied
passionately as he closed his eyes and leaned down to capture Dee's soft lips in a sensual kiss. Dee moaned against Ryo's mouth and
parted his lips, welcoming the hesitant intrusion of Ryo's tongue as Ryo began
to gently explore the intricate heated contours of the exquisite mouth that he
craved. Dee brought his hand up to lace his
fingers through Ryo's silky honey-blond tresses, pulling Ryo deeper into the
kiss. Dee snaked his slick tongue out to
twine against Ryo's, pleasantly surprised that Ryo had made the first move in
initiating the kiss. Dee
had discovered that, true to Ryo's word, he had indeed been showing Dee just how much he loved him through
physical expressions of his devotion. It only served to turn Dee on more when his usually shy Ryo
took the initiative in their relationship.

Ryo suddenly
broke the kiss and looked deep into Dee's passion-darkened eyes worriedly. "Dee, do you have any regrets in
choosing to love me? It must have been pretty overwhelming for you to just
trust someone on a whim and move into a place that you didn't remember anything
about. I don't know what I would have done if I had been in your place,"
Ryo broke off sadly.

Dee frowned at the troubled expression
that adorned his handsome partner's face. "I would have had reservations
if it had been anyone else but you," Dee said truthfully. "With you,
it was different. I could tell that we had an underlying connection, a special
bond. It all felt so right. I've never felt like this with anyone before,"
he said lovingly. It also didn't hurt that the kind-hearted man before him was
absolutely gorgeous, Dee
thought as he smiled back at his partner. He sat up and looked deep into Ryo's midnight eyes that had once resonated so
much pain, confusion, and doubt. Now they radiated a soothing reassurance that
he had made the right choice. A relieved smile spread across Ryo's handsome
face at the words that escaped Dee's lips.

"I'm so
grateful that you found it in yourself to trust your heart, Dee," Ryo said softly. "I'm
also thankful that we have such wonderful friends. Drake and Ted put in a lot
of extra time and effort making sure that the driver of the truck that hit us
will be serving maximum jail time for drunk driving. I'm just glad that we
weren't hurt more severely. We were very lucky," he mused reflectively.

"Yeah, it's
nice to know that we work with some good guys. Although, you know, I can't say
that I feel the same way about JJ and Rose. They're going to get what's coming
to them - I can promise you that," Dee said with a malicious grin.

"Dee, be nice. I don't agree with what
they did either, but don't get yourself in more trouble than you can
handle," Ryo said warningly. "The chief is pretty sharp when it comes
to knowing what goes on with his workers."

"Well, I
know just the thing to do," Dee said with a mischievous gleam resonating
from behind his intense emerald eyes. "First, I'm going to make sure that
they're in a place at the precinct where they're bound to find us," he
said as he pushed Ryo down onto the couch, pinning him helplessly beneath his
body. "Then I'm going to make sure that they can hear us when I do
this," Dee said as he quickly moved down to kiss and nip at the sensitive
flesh of Ryo's neck, running his tongue soothingly over the tender areas that
he had assuaged.

"Ahhhhh�
Dee!" Ryo gasped in surprise as he writhed against Dee's hot mouth and
braced himself against the couch, trying desperately to grab onto something as
Dee continued to savor his smooth flesh with passionate vigor.

"That's it -
get nice and loud Ryo, just like last night," Dee purred as he moved his
loving affections further down Ryo's chest, only stopping when he reached his
shirt collar. "That'll get them to run in and check out what the
commotion's all about. Then they'll see that we belong only to each
other," Dee vowed with flashing green eyes.

Ryo's cheeks
flushed hotly in arousal at Dee's bold statement. Dee began to run his warm
hands enticingly under Ryo's shirt and inched them slowly upward towards his
sensitive nipples, moving his mouth up to lightly flutter kisses along Ryo's
jaw line. Ryo closed his eyes and basked in the sensations that consumed his
body. He wrapped his arms around Dee's shoulders, putting pressure against the
material of his shirt as he ran his dulled nails up and down Dee's sinewy back
in encouragement. "God, I could take you right here, I want you so
badly," Dee spoke against Ryo's neck before claiming Ryo's swollen lips in
a scorching kiss.

Ryo suddenly came
to his senses as a realization dawned on him. His eyes flew open and he glanced
at the clock on the wall. "Dee, we have to stop," he said reluctantly
as he pushed Dee's steamy body up off of him.

"Why?"
Dee asked as he started to unbutton Ryo's dress shirt, moving his mouth down
again and continuing to lavish attention on the increasing amount of Ryo's
delicious exposed flesh.

"Because
people are going to be coming over for dinner soon," Ryo pleaded
desperately. However, his protests were to no avail as he inadvertently tilted
his head back to give Dee better access to his neck when Dee hit a particularly
sensitive spot. His body always betrayed his practical side whenever Dee was
around, to Ryo's dismay.

"The only
one who's going to be coming soon is me. Why not treat yourself to some
afternoon Dee-light? You know you want to," Dee said enticingly as he
ground his hardening arousal against Ryo's muscular thigh.

"No Dee, -
get off," Ryo said vehemently, now pushing at Dee more forcefully,
determined to focus on the actuality of the situation instead of succumbing to
the raven-haired man's desire for his body.

"I'm trying
to. If you let me, I'll get us both off," Dee offered temptingly, his
voice husky with need. Ryo finally managed to untangle himself from underneath
Dee and stood up, breathing heavily. Dee's face fell and he reluctantly gave up
his amorous pursuit as he saw that Ryo's stern expression was unwavering
despite his repeated attempts to sway the soft-spoken blond. Ryo still didn't
realize the extent to which he affected Dee's body. Dee walked over to Ryo and
put his hands around Ryo's waist, pulling him close and gazing at him in silent
longing.

Ryo sighed,
exasperated, as he buttoned up his shirt, ruefully surveying Dee's hurt
expression. "Dee, it's not that I don't want to, but not now - please. I
promise you that I'll make it worth your wait tonight," Ryo said
resolutely as he placed a chaste kiss upon Dee's pouting lips.

Just then, there
was a knock at the door and Mother Maria Lane walked in, homemade pie in hand.
"Oh my, I do hope I'm not interrupting anything," she said worriedly
as she noticed Ryo's flushed face and observed Dee's hands resting around Ryo's
slim waist.

"No, come on
in," Dee said, smiling broadly and walking over to envelop her in a warm
hug. He took the pumpkin pie out of her hands and took it into the kitchen,
calling out as he disappeared from view, "Thanks Penguin - it's my
favorite."

"Why does he
only seem to remember the things we'd rather him forget?" she asked with a
frustrated sigh at the use of Dee's nickname for her as they heard Dee setting
the table for dinner.

"Well, as
much as I agree with you, I wouldn't have him any other way," Ryo said
with a smile, giving her a hug and motioning her to follow him into the
kitchen, where he checked on the turkey that was cooking in the oven.

Dee's memory had
indeed improved substantially since the night that he and Ryo had first
consummated their relationship, although he still had permanent gaps and pieces
missing. Thankfully, Ryo was only too willing to help him out, offering as much
information as he could or researching things that Dee was unfamiliar with.
Dee's memory of the people and places that meant the most to him were neither
lost nor forgotten, to Ryo's delight, although this also meant that the banter
with Bikky had resumed.

Dee felt safe
with Ryo, and for the first time since the accident he was beginning to feel
comfortable following his instincts and trusting his feelings. He knew without
a doubt that this was where he wanted to spend his life and this is who he
wanted to spend it with - his best friend, lover, and soulmate - Ryo, his Ryo.

Hearing a knock
at the door, Ryo yelled to Bikky, "Bikky, could you get that, please? I'm
busy in the kitchen." Bikky's bedroom door opened and he and Carol
scampered out. Elena had already let herself in, however, and leaned down to
give Bikky and Carol hugs before joining Dee, Ryo, and Mother in the kitchen.

By this time, the
turkey was done and they all sat down to eat Ryo's sumptuous home-cooked
dinner, laughing and talking animatedly. Dee glanced around the room at all of
the happy faces, finally feeling that this was where he belonged, here with his
family. He squeezed Ryo's hand under the table and smiled affectionately at
him. He mouthed the words `I love you' as Ryo smiled back from under
honey-blond bangs and dark lashes.

"I love you
too, Dee," Ryo said softly as he gazed into Dee's captivating emerald
eyes. He had never felt more content in all of his life than he was at this
moment. He was surrounded by the people who meant the most to him in this world
and sitting next to the man he loved with his whole heart, his entire being. It
was more than he had ever dared hope for. This was paradise.

___________________________________________________

After dessert had
been served and the guests had left, including Bikky and Carol who had gone to
spend time with Carol's aunt, Dee and Ryo were finishing up the last of the
dishes from the meal. Dee sighed. "Whew, what a long day. I think all that
company wore me out."

Ryo laughed
quietly and brushed a strand of raven hair away from Dee's deep green eyes.
"Well, I hope you're not too tired for what I have planned for us
tonight," he said innocently, although his dark eyes sparkled with a hint
of mischief.

"Why Ryo, do
you want to try to discover what else I can remember tonight?" Dee asked,
delighted that his shy lover had indeed kept his word that they would continue
where they had left off on the couch earlier that day.

"Yes Dee, it
is an important part of your therapy, after all," Ryo said very seriously.
"I won't take no for an answer. We do want you to have a full
recovery," he said with a teasing smile.

"Well, when
you put it that way, how can I refuse?" Dee asked seductively, following
Ryo into the bedroom, his hand never leaving Ryo's hip.

"Ow, Dee -
that hurt!" Ryo cried out suddenly as Dee reached down and pinched his
firm ass. "What did you do that for?" he asked indignantly.

"Sorry
Ryo," Dee said wickedly. "I just wanted to make sure that I wasn't
dreaming."

"You're
supposed to pinch yourself, Dee! What am I going to do with you?" Ryo
returned playfully as he swatted at Dee's arm.

"Well, if
you want, I could kiss it and make it better," Dee said enticingly. Ryo
grinned. Dee's libido was still insatiable. Indeed, some things would never
change with his Dee.

Dee tilted his
head down alluringly to claim Ryo's addicting lips with his own, pushing Ryo
back onto the bed as Ryo moaned into the kiss and parted his lips, imploring
Dee's tongue entrance and letting himself become adrift in the sea of emotions
that Dee evoked in him. Dee covered Ryo's lithe body with his own, fingers
already unbuttoning Ryo's shirt as Dee anchored his tantalizing mouth against
Ryo's hot flesh. Ryo sighed in bliss, losing himself in Dee's subtle caresses.
He simultaneously worked at slipping Dee's shirt over his head as he melted
into the bedsheets.

"Dee -
please," Ryo implored, wrapping his arms around Dee and hugging him tightly
to his trembling body. "I need you so badly. I want you so much."

"No Ryo, you
don't have to beg me tonight," Dee breathed in a husky voice as he looked
deep into Ryo's passion-darkened eyes and into his soul. "I'm all yours.
I'm only yours - forever."

The raven-haired
man exuded love and a passionate desire for the angel willingly trapped
underneath him as he leaned down to worship and devour Ryo's compliant body,
Ryo writhing against Dee and crying out his name entreatingly as Dee edged both
of them further to the brink of ecstasy. This was more than an ethereal
paradise. This was absolute Heaven on Earth.

"Ryo, do you
know what the best part of this whole accident was?" Dee asked with a soft
glint in his emerald eyes as he looked over at his lover, both men fully
satiated from their extensive night of passionate lovemaking. He pulled Ryo
closer to his body in a protective embrace and brushed his lips against his
forehead.

"No
Dee," Ryo said quietly as he ran his hands up and down Dee's sides in
loving caresses, reflecting over all of the anguish and pain that they had both
endured in order to finally arrive at where they were today.

"I got to
fall in love with you all over again," Dee whispered from the depths of
his heart as he brought his sultry lips down over Ryo's to claim his mouth and
ravish his entire being in a deep passionate kiss.
