Reaching for the Sun

Chapter Two: Hope

Back to write some more! I promise the lemon will be coming up as soon as I can make it not look stupid where it is. Oh yes, and I am sorry about the short chapters, but I am in college at this moment, and to say I am busy would be an understatement.

Summary: Haru sees a light at the end of the tunnel considering his one sided infatuation with Yuki.

A/N: ~\"----\"~ represent thoughts.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

It was shortly after Tohru meeting Akito in the main house that I gained an inkling that I might have a chance with Yuki. A few days had passed since the incident, and I was over at Shigure’s house. Yuki had yet to wake, and somehow I had been selected for the job of waking the slumbering prince. Naturally I accepted. A chance to be alone with Yuki, any chance was not one I was willing to forfeit. I crept into his room quietly--no, I did not want to wake him up. A sleeping Yuki is a very unguarded and lovely sight.

What I encountered will forever be etched in my memory. Yuki lay on his side facing the door, shirtless, with the blanket around his hips. One pale thigh was peeking out of the warmth of the covers, obviously the heat of summer was getting to him. Light was streaming in through the window, adding to the ethereality of the scene, and I felt my mouth go dry. Nude…..he was naked under those covers, was the only thing I could get to register in my lust fogged mind. I think I must have stood there for quite some time, because the next thing I heard was Shigure enquiring as to whether Yuki was giving me any trouble.

His voice snapped me out of my rather perverse contemplation, and I moved to wake the somnolent rat. Black Haru was prodding at my mind though, and he stopped me before I had a chance to do more than lay a hand on Yuki‘s shoulder.

~“He is naked in bed, and you are just going to wake him….doesn’t that seem like a perfectly good waste of nudity.”~

Then again….Black Haru is, was, and always will be, a grade A whore. At the moment though, I was not thinking straight, and this did not cross my mind. Instead of doing the rational thing, which was to awaken Yuki, I chose the path that my other had chosen.

I watched, half terrified, half mesmerized, as my hand, almost by its own volition began moving down Yuki’s chest. Soft, he was so soft, but under that smooth skin was a coiled strength that I knew good and well could knock me flat on my ass, and then some. That thought alone, was something that both excited and scared me...yes, I will admit it, I am a kink. Encouraged by the fact that my light caress had not even caused the slightest stirrings from him, I continued my exploration. Lower and lower, my hand journeyed, stopping around his navel. I then decided that Yuki indeed even had a pretty belly button, if one can have such things.

This was were I fell into a quandary. Dare I touch lower, or should I just wake him up? I was certain if I went any lower I would find myself across the room in a heap of rubble, with an angry sleepy Yuki looming dangerously over me. In the end, Black got the better of me, he always does when it comes to things like this.

~“Touch him…..you know you want to, just give in. You never know, he may just like it.”~

Being the limp noodle I am, I did just that. Before I could stop myself, I was pulling the sheet from around his hips gently, exposing him completely. He was truly a sight to behold. Granted, I had seen Yuki naked from time to time, after a transformation, but this was different. He was gorgeous, and I just could not help myself. I gave a few experimental caresses to the area directly above his length, and was rewarded by a pleased little sigh that escaped his lips.

Of course, this success only urged me to become bolder, and to let more of White slip away. I leaned in closer to him, slowly bringing one hand up to stroke his cock, and the other to rub in soft circles along his abdomen. The sound that this elicited was pure sex, and to say it aroused me would be the understatement of the year. Bolstered by his positive reaction, I decided that it was time to let my mouth do the work I knew would yield the best result. As I bent my head to take him into my mouth, I did not see his eyes begin to open.

A/N I am truly sorry for ending at this note, but, I am tired at the moment. I guarantee a new chapter within the next two days.

I hope you are enjoying it thus far, and I really would appreciate a review or two.

^_^ Adios…..
