Chapter Two


Near the creeping wee hours of the morning, when Goku had managed to slither his way into Sanzo\'s room without being hit by anything, and Gojyo had managed to slither into Hakkai\'s bed without any clothes on, the rain stopped. Hakkai lay awake, his head resting on a sleeping Gojyo\'s chest, listening to the silence, and the steady rhythm of the half-breed\'s heartbeat. The rain was gone, but he still felt ill at ease. Everything just felt so wrong to him; the inn, the rain, and especially their most recent battle with that small band of rogue demons. They seemed so sad to him, pathetic really. Like they were only attacking the group so that they were sure to be slaughtered, as if they had wanted to die at the hand\'s of the Sanzo party...

But in the end, no matter how many times Hakkai thought back over the brief battle, it kept getting pushed from his mind by the thoughts of the rain. He sighed. The rain always did this to him. The rain always seemed to set the stage for his memories to come dancing in upon. Like Sanzo, he was always more thoughtful, more cranky and edgy during a rain. Thankfully, this one seemed to be gone for now, though the sun was far from peeking through to shine brightly upon the world once more. In fact, it barely managed to show through the thick clouds at all. Hakkai wished silently that those clouds would just go away, but at least, he thought with brief satisfaction, they could move on once everyone woke up.

Gojyo shifted slightly in his sleep, drawing in a deep breath that made Hakkai lift his head a little, looking up at the red-haired half-demon. It was no secret between the members of the group that they\'d been sleeping together for some time, but yet it wasn\'t something so openly talked about between them all. Just like how Sanzo refused to admit that he occassionally partook of monkey flesh from time to time. Not so much taboo as a privacy thing. But... occassionally, they\'d get chances like this to rekindle their personal relationships. However fleeting those moments might be, Hakkai still enjoyed them.

Sha Gojyo, the womanizer. Hakkai grinned mischieveously at the slumbering man. Who would have guessed that he was bisexual? He lay his head back down upon Gojyo\'s chest, one hand lifting to rest lighting on the other man\'s hip-line. Gojyo\'s breathing quickened a little, off-setting the rhythm, and informed Hakkai that the touch didn\'t go unnoticed.

\"Damnit... you\'re still awake?\" Came a groggy voice from near the headboard of the bed.

Hakkai grinned a little more. \"I slept a little.\" He felt a hand settle on his shoulder to give a small squeeze.

\"Well,\" The voice sounded a little more awake. \"Go back to sleep then. And stop touching me like that, or I\'ll be forced to molest you while you sleep.... you\'re keeping me awake.\"

\"You weren\'t awake to begin with... \" Was the only reply Hakkai gave to Gojyo\'s little \'threat\'.

\"Go to sleep, Hakkai.\" Gojyo said firmly after a moment. Though, as he lay there, Hakkai didn\'t feel the half-breed\'s breathing return to the gentle sound of slumber.

There was silence in the room for several minutes, then Hakkai pushed away from Gojyo to sit up, the grin on his face disappearing with the motion. As he thought, the red-haired man\'s eyes were half-lidded, but focused on him curiously. Those eyes were tinged with a little mixture of worry. Hakkai said nothing.

\"Is this about those demons again? The ones from the other day?\"

Hakkai shook his head slowly, and gave a sigh. \"I\'m sure I\'ll be fine after these clouds clear up, Gojyo. Maybe I\'m just reading too much into those guys because of... \" He trailed off slowly.

Gojyo lifted one brow. Moving to lift himself up on his elbows, he lolled his head to rest against his shoulder, staring sleepily at Hakkai. \"You\'ve got to get over this rain fetish, Hakkai. You and Sanzo both... it\'s sucking the life out of you guys.\" There was a bit of a pause, before he added, with a small amount of amusement: \"And it\'s making rough sex with you very hard to accomplish these days.\"

Hakkai couldn\'t help but grin again, staring through dim light at Gojyo. \"Like you ever had a hard time with rough sex, Gojyo.\"

The kappa laughed, shifting a bit more so he could lean against the headboard and prop his hands behind his head. The sheets they were using for covers slipped dangerously low upon his person. \"That\'s true. Some people are just born with talent, I guess.\"

\"And some people are just born with perpetual perversion.\"

\"Touché.\" Gojyo said with a smirk, one hand slipping from behind his head, reaching toward Hakkai. He caught him hard about the shoulders, and gave a tug that pulled the darker-haired man back to him with a small flurry of covers. \"You\'ve woken me up too early, Hakkai. The beast needs to be satisfied again or it\'ll never go back to sleep.\"

Hakkai rolled his eyes, leaning hard against Gojyo\'s side. \"I suddenly feel tired, Gojyo.\" He said with a snigger, closing his eyes. \"I just can\'t seem to keep my eyes open.\"

Gojyo\'s brows shot up, and he looked in horror down at the top of Hakkai\'s head. \"You sorry bastard! You just said you weren\'t tired, that you couldn\'t sleep!\"

\"Sleep... definitely... closing in. Can\'t stay awake.. much longer..\" Hakkai teased, pretending to nod off.

The half-breed gave a shake of his lover\'s shoulder, jostling them both and making the bed springs shout a protest. \"Stop it, Hakkai That\'s not funny.\"

Hakkai smirked to himself. \"I\'m sorry. I have a hard time having sex while I\'m asleep.\" He feigned a low snore that brought a growl of displeasure from Gojyo. Hakkai couldn\'t help but chuckle.

\"You so just woke me up by practically having your hand on my cock, and now you\'re tired? You\'re worse than a woman, Hakkai, I swear!\"

\"It\'s not like you didn\'t have any sex at all, Gojyo.\" He countered lazily, trying his best not to start laughing at his comrade\'s plight, for he could see the \'tent\' that lingered down within the ranges of the sheets. Poor Gojyo... Hakkai thought, but not without an inward snicker. Sometimes, it was just too easy to toy with him, especially when the others weren\'t around.

\"Fine. If you don\'t want to fuck,then I\'m going back to sleep. Keep your hands off my dick, or I\'ll kick your ass when I wake up again.\"

Am empty threat that was heard so often it had practically become a routine saying between them both. Even as Gojyo finished the sentence, Hakkai relented, showing it by turning his head slightly to give Gojyo\'s nipple a fierce suckle that roused a sharp hiss from the other man.

Again, there was silence between them, but it didn\'t last for more than a minute, or perhaps maybe it was only a mere second... Hakkai couldn\'t really tell, for the next thing he knew, Gojyo had him on his back in the center of the small bed, their nude forms pressed tightly together. Gojyo assaulted his lover\'s chest, catching the left nipple hard between his teeth. Hakkai moaned softly.

Anything to keep out the thoughts of the rain... the thoughts ... the memories...

The assault continued, trailing from chest, to abdomen, to groin. Gojyo\'s hands held Hakkai\'s wrists tightly at his sides, a surprising strength seeming to rise from the man who had just, moments before, seemed to be just rousing from the ranks of slumber, probably too groggy to even get out of bed to take a morning piss. Hakkai bucked slightly against the mouth that accosted his own growing erection. It was a fierce movement, a sharp, heavy rhythm that pulled release so close to the edge with a momentum that was hard to stop.

Anything to keep out the thoughts of the red.....

Hakkai threw his head back, and bit his lip to keep from screaming.
