No Longer Alone *Story Complete*

Chapter 8:


Dee sighed happily and leaned back in his chair, his stomach filled with the fruits of his Ryo's labor. The turkey breast was perfectly seasoned, moist and tender, not overly dry like he had in the past. The mashed potatoes weren't lumpy and the asparagus had a hint of seasoning to enhance its taste.

They talked as they ate and their plates soon emptied, leaving enough room for the superb cake that Ellie had made. Grabbing the remainder of their wine and his glass, he helped Ryo to his feet, ushering him into the living room with his hand placed in the warm of his lower back. However before they made it to the couch, the warmth escaped, earning a pout from the taller man.

"Getting your present." Ryo explained with a small smile.

The two man took the chance to grab the wrapped gifts that they had bought. Each man had spent many hours thinking of something to buy for the holiday, before finally deciding on the gifts they were now returning to the couch with.

Dee watched as his partner sat, the move oddly graceful, tucking his leg beneath him, his sock-clad foot peeking out from beneath his strong thigh. His lips quirked when he dropped onto the couch, his arm coming to wrap around Ryo and immediately noticed how he molded against his body readily.

“Here,” The dark haired man pushed the wrapped box into Ryo's lap. “Open mine first.”

The motion of Dee's hand gently rubbing his shoulder was distracting and brought a blush to his cheeks, but he did nothing to stop the soothing motion. Nimble fingers plucked the ribbons of the gold bow, slipping into his lap as Ryo went to work on the wrapping paper. A small smirk traced his lips knowing that his partner was getting impatient with his slow movements, but didn't hurry his pace.

The lid was lifted from the box and white tissue paper was pushed away, exposing the gift that lie within. “Wow Dee...” the sandy haired man murmured, as he ran his fingers over the material before pulling out the black leather jacket.

A smile broke across Dee's lips as he stood, pulling Ryo to his feet. The jacket was removed from Ryo's hands, helping him into it and working with the collar to get it just right. It was the perfect size and he knew that the lining would keep him warm. “Damn, you look hot.” He grab the lapels, pulling Ryo close.

Ryo's cheeks deepened further in color, he stepped forward, closing the minuscule distance between them. His arms wrapped around his partner, his nose becoming buried in the crook of Dee's neck, inhaling the scent of the shampoo that had been used shortly after returning from the hospital. A shy kiss was placed on the sensitive skin. “Thank you, it's perfect.” He smiled before pulling back, wrapping the jacket about his lean form, loving how warm it and his officer's mind noted that a quick draw of his weapon wouldn't be severely impeded.

The dark haired man helped Ryo out of his coat and moved to the coat rack, hanging it for now. They made their way back to the couch and once more, and a small box was promptly placed in Dee's hands. The arm encircling Ryo's shoulders left for a moment in order to unwrap his gift. His brow arched in surprise at the plain white envelope within.

“Open it.” Ryo gestured to the envelope, moving closer to Dee's warmth and unconsciously holding his breath as the flap was opened.

Green eyes widened as he pulled out the contents of the envelope. “You didn't do this...” he mumbled in disbelief, looking at the man curled up at his side.

“I did.”

Dee looked at the two airline tickets and the two week rental agreement for a private bungalow in Waikiki, Hawaii. The pictures of the home showed the lush green vegetation surrounding a private pool and the back yard of the home. The were photos of the interior of the home as well as one looking out from the living room, giving a view of the pool as well as the ocean which lie on the other side of a privacy wall concealed by well placed flowering hedges.

“Our last vacation had a bit more excitement that I can safely say neither of us wanted. This way, we don't have to worry about other guests-”

“Or crazy, grief stricken hotel owners,” Dee mumbled, gaining a chuckle from his partner.

“Or that,” he nodded in agreement. “and we'll be local so we'll be able to get in some sight seeing and time on the beach easily. The tickets are for the last two weeks in June and if we can't get the time off, we can reschedule our flights. The woman who owns the home was is an old friend of my Aunt Elena's and so we'll be able to work around any changes that need to be made.”

In the blink of an eye, Ryo yelped in surprise as he was tackled back into the couches soft cushion with a dark form grinning down at him. “So! Along with the fact that there is only two plane tickets here, and the information on the bungalow shows that there is only one bedroom, is it safe to say that we're not going to be having a certain monkey-boy and his partner in crime showing up at our little island paradise?”

“N-no...” The pinned form managed to get the words past his lips as Dee began to slowly descended.

“And, since its a one bedroom, neither of us will be bunkin' on the couch, correct?” Dee dipped down, allowing his lips to brush against Ryo's before kissing lightly along his jaw. A shiver shot down his spine as Ryo's soft moan reached his ears.

“R-right.”

The dark haired detective pulled back slowly, intense green meeting with the deepest black while his hand discreetly placed the tickets on the armrest of the couch. “I got two of the best Christmas gifts today from you. The trip with you is perfect and all, but mostly, I'm just glad that I finally have you.”

“Dee...” The sandy haired man moaned and allowed a gasp to escape his lips when he felt his earlobe become pinched by a nip of the teeth, only to be soothed by a tender lap of his tongue.

“Ryo...Can I keep you?” Dee mumbled huskily, attempting to rein his arousal and the swelling flesh that pressed against the fabric of his boxers and pants. He brushed his Ryo's soft cheek then began another series of slow butterfly kisses.

'Can I keep you?' The words repeated within his mind, making him feel dizzy. Never before had simple words effected him so violently. His heart pounded within his chest, his blood simmered within his veins, his own length swelling rapidly within his slacks. As skilled lips teased his flesh, Ryo wondered what exactly it was that Dee felt for him. Was it simply that he cared deeply for him or did Dee love him? The voice at the back of his mind shot those thoughts down. The tone of the other man's voice, so sweet and rich, told him what he needed to know.

But it didn't really matter.

He trusted Dee. He knew that he wouldn't do anything to hurt him. He knew that this would not just be a one night stand or some simple conquest for him.

“I told you before, you think too much.” Dee pulled back and smiled, his green eyes meeting ebon. “I may be a 'horny bastard' as you once dubbed me,” He glared playfully. “But I wouldn't risk hurting you just to get into your pants. Believe it or not, I do love you-” He quickly silenced Ryo with a look when he saw his eyes widen and his lips part.

“I don't want to hear you say it until you're sure. I know you care and thats more than enough for me. If you feel like you want to stop, just tell me. It'll be hard as hell to do that because, well, it's you, but I will.”

Ryo blinked, his mind quickly processing what Dee had just confessed. Dee loved him. That thought made his heart stutter and the wave of dizziness returned full force, but he didn't forget the fact that he hadn't answered the question that Dee had asked.

He reached up, cupping Dee's jaw and running his thumb across his lips slowly and earning a slight flick of the tongue against the pad of his digit. A warm yet charmingly shy smile graced Ryo's lips.

“Dee?”

“Yeah?”

“You can keep me.” And from the emotion swimming in those piercing green eyes, He knew that Dee was his to keep as well. Words were not needed to decipher the warmth in his eyes. He brushed his thumb across his lips once more before looping his arms behind his neck, pulling him down to press his lips lovingly against Dee's. A whimper escaped, only to be muffled when Dee deepened the kiss, his tongue teasing Ryo's own.

Pale fingers traced down the raven haired man's cloth covered back only to come rest at his hips. With a shuddering breath, Ryo pulled down a bit on Dee's hips to meet his own. A hiss escaped the younger man's lips, Ryo's moan seemed to echo off the walls of the apartment in the ears of both men, but the sound itself was nothing more than a slight whisper.

Dee couldn't help but to slowly thrust against the smaller man, his face becoming hidden in the crook of Ryo's neck. His blood had gone from simmering to boiling and the temperature of the room seemed to increase drastically. His next move took a lot of will power, but Dee managed to pull back, easing his weight off Ryo's lithe form.

“What's wrong?” The concern was clear in Ryo's voice.

Dee shook his head, the corner of his lips tilting slightly. “I'm sorry babe, but I'm not going to take you on the couch. I think we better move this to somewhere a bit more comfortable.” He made his way to his feet, standing on slightly shaking legs, and pulled Ryo to his feet. Keeping his partner's warm hand in his own, he led him out of the living room, flipping the light switch before leading the way down the hall.

o-o

As soon as the bedroom door closed, Ryo let out a yelp as he suddenly found himself pinned to the door. Lips became crushed against his own as Dee tasted him, his large hands coming down and grasping the sandy haired man's pert cheeks through the cloth of his pants. Dee smirked in their kiss as his lover bucked against him, their straining erections brushing against one another through their barriers.

“Mmm...that just wont do.” Dee grasped the hem of Ryo's shirt and lifted it over his head, tossing it to the side. “You're wearing way too much for me to ravish you like I planned.” His hands traced over dusky nipples.

Ryo tossed his head back, a soft mewling sound escaping his lips and his eyes drifted closed. In that bare moment, he found himself being eased onto the bed. His pitch black eyes opened lazily, watching as Dee divested him of his remaining clothing. The pale haired man fought the urge to cover himself from Dee's hungry gaze.

“You have nothing to hide from me, Ryo.” Dee stated with a knowing grin as he slipped the clothing from his own body. He felt himself swell at the dark gaze that traced down his toned form, lingering at the juncture of his thighs before closing his eyes, albeit reluctantly, his cheeks a dark crimson.

He padded over to the bed, watching as Ryo's eyes slowly slid open. “You're so damn sexy and I'm the lucky one that gets to keep you!” He said with boyish glee earning a soft chuckle from Ryo, leaning down to capture his lips and turning the laughter into a soft, deep moan.

Dee ran his hand down the sandy haired man's side as he tasted him throughly, sensitive fingertips mapping the planes and ridges that made up his chest and abdomen. The kiss broke, leaving them both panting, their breaths mingling before he began traveling down Ryo's beautiful form.

Ryo strained, his back arched as Dee began an all out assault on his body. His hot mouth and tongue swirled, sucked and nipped at his nipples. A line of kisses and licks trailed down his stomach and dipped into his navel, strong hands coaxing his yielding thighs apart, massaging them gently. Hands came close his arousal, yet not close enough to give him what he needed.

“Dee...please...”

His tongue flicked into his navel once more before smiling up at his love. He quickly made his way up to Ryo's lips, sealing them with his own, his hand snaking its way beneath the pillow as he thrust his hips against his lover's. A cry of pleasure rang out in the bedroom and Ryo's hands immediately clamped on Dee's forearms, his body jerking against the taller form, wanting more of the delicious friction. “Shit!”

The raven smirked through the haze enshrouding his mind, amused at hearing the curse spill from his partner's lips. That thought quickly disappeared, however, his own hips working against Ryo's. Their turgid lengths slid and rolled against each other, occasionally leaving a glistening trails of precum in its wake. Ryo's voice rang out and was almost immediately followed by a disappointed and irritated growl as Dee pulled away.

“W-why'd you stop?” Ryo clutched the bedding below, his body fidgeting, trying to quell the need to pull Dee down once more.

“Not like this,” Dee started, his hand moving down to brush at the dark sandy curls at the base of his lover's erection. “When I cum, I want to be deep inside you,” He wrapped his hand around his engorged manhood, using their combined essence as lubrication as he pumped Ryo at a slow, torturous pace. “I want to feel you ripple around me and I want to hear you call out my name.”

Ryo groaned, his head pressing back into the pillows as a wave of dizziness and dissociation washed over him. Whether it was from the sensations that Dee was causing, the words that spilled from those wonderfully skilled lips, or a combination of the two, he didn't know. What he did know is that he didn't want his raven haired lover to stop and more than ever, he wanted the man that was causing these feelings. The man that was making his heart pound so desperately that he feared the sound audible throughout the entire room.

Unable to form words, the prostrate man nodded weakly, watching through heavy lidded eyes as Dee flipped the cap open to a small tube. Immediate recognition flowed through his mind, causing his flush to deepen, wondering where exactly he had gotten the lubrication from.

“As much as I want to be inside you right now,” Dee purred, still stroking his partner's length. “I'm not willing to hurt you. Trust me...”

Ryo nodded, watching Dee move further down the bed. His eyes snapped shut, a shudder running through his entire being as soft kisses peppered his stomach and thighs. One particularly strong stroke caused his body to tense, the coil that had been tightening in his belly threatening to snap. He was glad that Dee had stopped. He didn't want to meet his end quite yet.

A few moments of quiet rang out through the room, only the sound of their breathing heard in those moments until Dee's rich yet rough voice quit the silence. “You okay now.”

“...Yeah.” Ryo gave a shy smile of thanks to his lover.

“Just relax.” Dee cooed before winking and descending on Ryo's manhood, engulfing the head within the warmth of his mouth.

His entire world flipped on its side and he felt as though he was falling as a jolt ran through his body. Sheets became a twisted, wrinkled mass at the mercy of his clenched fists. The desire to thrust deep into the molten heat that was Dee's mouth was strong, but he managed to keep his hips still. A soft 'Gods yes' spilled from his lips as he dipped once more, his teeth scraping ever-so-lightly against his velvet covered still.

Now was the time, and Dee knew it. He was enraptured by how beautiful his love looked as he swirled his tongue around he head of his penis before dipping down. One lubricated finger gently prodded the rosebud entrance to his lover's body. He felt Ryo tense and allowed a hum to escape his lips, sending the vibrations through his cock and thoroughly distracting his him as his finger slipped inside of his heat.

Ryo's cries of pleasure increased as Dee continued to bob, suck and lap lovingly at his erection. A second, then a third finger slipped into his body, giving him momentary pauses as he tried to adjust to the intrusion. The pleasure humming through his body effectively overrode the discomfort caused by those slick fingers. Soon, even the discomfort faded away in a burst of bright light behind closed eyelids as Dee brushed against something deep inside his body.

“Dee!” He moaned, his hips jerking upwards as his body contracted, his seed spilling from his length in powerful jets, filling the ebon haired man's mouth. His fingers quickly released the sheets, choosing to entwine within the soft black strands of hair.

Dee swallowed eagerly as Ryo began to soften within his lips. He released the partially hard member with a soft 'pop' before lapping slowly, cleaning the sandy haired man of any remnants of his essence. He straightened and moved up Ryo's form, meeting the man as he sat up, kissing him deeply, tasting himself thoroughly.

He fingers worked with the tube once more, then dropped to the bedding just before Dee fisted his own painfully swollen flesh, making sure that he was well lubricated for what was to come. Pulling away from the kiss, he allowed a small smirk to grace his lips. “Babe you taste wonderful...and now, I want to make you mine.” He pushed Ryo back with his free hand before stealing a soft kiss. “You ready?”

“Please...” Softly slipped from the kissable lips of the older detective.

Dee gave his lover a nod as he repositioned himself between Ryo's thighs. He ran his hands across his thighs, as the parted a bit more, giving him access to Ryo's heated body. Grasping his own manhood, he positioned himself at the rosebud entrance and locked eyes with his lover's. Slowly he pressed forward, the slick head of his cock slipping into his body with a bit of resistance.

“Relax...” He panted the reminder his lover and watched as Ryo nodded sharply, his eyes drifting away from him when the blush on his cheeks began to darken. “Look at me Ryo, you're gorgeous...”

The dark eyed man's already swollen lip became compressed between his teeth as he turned his gaze back to his lover. He allowed a deep breath to escape his lips before releasing it in a hiss when Dee began sliding into his body once more until he was fully embedded within his heated core.

“Gods above, you're fucking tight..so hot.” Dee groaned, gazing down at his lover as his hand entwined with Ryo's. He fought to remain still though his body shook and only moved when he felt his hand squeezed and gained a small nod from his partner.

“Oh yes...” Dee moaned as he began a slow rhythm, suddenly drawing back and sinking in deep, his hips grinding against Ryo, earning a melodic cry from his lover. He could feel the erection that had fully returned to his lovers manhood as it became trapped between their taut stomachs.

“F-faster, Dee.” Ryo gripped his lover's hands tighter, his legs wrapping around Dee's hips.

Their bodies moved against each other in an age old rhythm, their eyes locked though dark and clouded with passion. Lips dueled, moans and cries of pleasure were not held back as thrusts became wild and Ryo thrust back with stars bursting within his field of vision each time the head of Dee's impressive member pressed against his prostate.

“I-I can't...” Sandy hair became plastered to his forehead and cheeks as he tossed his head back.

“Don't...hold back, Ryo...” Dee commanded as he felt Ryo beginning to quake around him, the coil in his pelvis tightening drastically. “I want to hear you when you cum.” He increased the power behind his thrusts, loving how Ryo's cries increased in volume, the passion clear in his voice.

Ryo arched off the bed, crying out the name of his lover as his white hot seed escaped his length, coating both their stomachs. His body clamped down on Dee's embedded length as he collapsed back onto the bed, his world going dark when he felt body become flooded with Dee's essence.

“Oh fuck!” The raven haired man ground out, filling his lover over and over again in the most intense orgasm he could remember. As his body began to calm and his vision cleared, a warm smile traced his lips as he noticed how still the form beneath him was. He leaned down, peppering Ryo's lips and face with soft kisses for a few moments before sooty eyelashes fluttered before revealing dark irises.

“Welcome back, babe.”

“Mmm...Dee?” Ryo questioned as the fog cleared, his hands loosening their grip on his lover's to wrap around the hovering form. “That was amazing...”

“It was...” He admitted with a wide grin and shifted his hips, allowing his soft length to slip from his body. Immediately, Ryo flushed at the rush of heat that slipped from his stretched body.

Dee hopped from the bed, disappearing into the bathroom to return with a large towel and a smaller, wet washcloth. He coaxed Ryo to spread his legs, taking the utmost care to clean his lover and sliding the larger towel beneath Ryo's body. He slipped back into the bathroom and cleaned himself off, shutting out the light and slipping back into the bed with Ryo.

He pulled the slightly smaller man close, kissing him softly and smiling. “You're amazing, babe. It's no wonder why I love you.“

“Dee...” The older man managed, his voice thick with emotion. Dee was there, he had been ever since he met him that fateful day in the chief's office. He hadn't been alone since that day and knew that he could depend on the man who held him so tenderly, the man who had just told him he loved him.

He buried his face in the crook of Dee's neck, the scent that was purely him, mix with the heady scent of their lovemaking, allowing a smile to grace his lips. He placed a soft kiss on the soft flesh and sighed happily.

“Love you too...” He said softly in reply as he allowed his eyes to close. “I'll keep you too...”

Authors Notes:

After approx 2 ½ years in the making, I finally finished this story! I'm just happy that I've finished because it has been bugging me since I started planning it. This was actually first posted back in 2005 around Christmas after making an outline for it around August of 2005, on ff.net. I've only really been motivated to work on it around the holidays, hence the reason why it's taken so long to finish. I've also got many other stories going and its a relief that I finally got this finished.
