Goodbye LJ...

windandwaterThis is just to make it official for those who don't know, but I'm leaving LJ completely. For the rest of this week at least. Tomorrow is the Bar Exam and it runs for three days, so don't expect to see me about at all until Thursday night. Or even until the weekend since I plan on spending Thursday after the Bar drunk and crying. No online time for me at all. *whines* It will be hard, but I know I can do it.
So, because I'm a total h0r like that, I am declaring this to be a spam post. Go ahead. Run wild! Give me fics, give me links, give me pics, just babble to your heart's content and rape my inbox so I have something to see when I finally DO come back to the wonderful world of LJ. I don't even care if you write me a drabble and post it one word at a time. XD;
Though, I've tried to make a spam post before and it failed a bit miserably, so I don't have very high expectations this time around. Feel free to prove me wrong though!

Re: Destination
Date: 2006-02-22 09:17 am (UTC)"That's --" That's different, he was about to say, before he cut himself off, and sucked in a breath. Was it really different? In the end, the hard questions he'd had to face would have been the same, whether he was going to be Heero's roommate, or his husband. He would still have needed to make that choice, to put his old ghosts at rest. The thought confused him.
As if reading his mind, Heero said, "Do you mean that if I had asked your way first, you would have said yes without thinking about the consequences, just because I said the right code phrase?"
Duo blinked at him. It didn't really make sense, now that he thought about it.
Heero read his face, then snorted. "Hn. I think my way WAS better, after all."
Duo shrugged helplessly, then giggled with the relief of tension. His head was swimming with delirious happiness, and he didn't think that he could stop smiling if he tried.
"Well," Heero went on, ignoring his boyfriend's -- fiancee's -- lack of coherance. "Since you've said yes, then I guess I can give you this now."
Reaching into his pocket, he pulled out a fine silver chain. Strung on it were two rings, shining nearly white under the artificial lights. He tumbled them into his palm, then glanced up into Duo's face. "I thought it would be appropriate," he said quietly.
Duo had been wrong; his smile was gone, just like that. He swallowed hard, breathing deeply as he took hold of the chain with a shaking hand. The metal was warm from Heero's pocket. Then, slowly, he looked up at his lover's face. Heero was sitting cross-legged on the floor, in jeans and a ratty t-shirt. His face was slightly smudged with dirt. The rings were plain, without decoration, and they were silver, not gold. This moment was nothing like he'd dreamed it would be.
He leaned forward suddenly, and with a hand cupping the back of Heero's head, captured him there. Clenching the chain in his fist, he dove forward and kissed Heero, trying to put everything he felt into it, that he couldn't put into words.
He didn't need dreams any more, Duo thought. He had Heero.
