CHAPTER TEN:

“Hey, Kakkarrot.”

“Hey, Peter.” Kakkarrot replied idly, nodding at the other officer in acknowledgement as he headed towards his sleeping quarters. He looked at the damning letter that he held in a tight grip in his hands. There was nothing else he could do, at least for now. He would just have to tell or rather give it to Vegeta and hopefully he would understand where he was coming from.

Getting to his door, he braced himself, wondering why he felt so nervous all of a sudden.

~ Kuso! Stop acting like you are so scared of the guy; after all you have a right to be upset. He lied about something that could ruin your whole future here. ~

And with a determined look on his face, he opened the door to his room and stepped inside.

Shutting the door behind him, he blinked for a few minutes, trying to get his mind to register what he was seeing and hearing.

~ Okay…I must be in the wrong room. ~

Scanning the room again, he saw that it was indeed his own room. So where the hell was that music coming from?! Vegeta was nowhere to be seen, and from the looks of his clothes dumped on his bed, Kakkarrot figured he must be in the showers. Walking further into the room, he noticed that his CD player, which he rarely used, was on and the soothing sounds from…

~ Enya?! ~

…filled the air. Unable to stop the amused grin that slowly crept up his face, he shook his head and pondered on what other eccentricities his roommate had to offer. Slowly, stripping out of his uniform, he suddenly spied the small, delicious-looking cake on the table. Clad only in his boxers now, he crept up to the sinful chocolate with white frosting treat and making sure that Vegeta wasn’t in yet, he opened up the plastic covered lid and with his finger, he gently scooped up some frosting off the edge, bringing it slowly to his lips as he licked the sugar off. Shutting his eyes, he moaned softly as he savored the heavenly sweetness. Opening them up again, he grinned evilly, as he reached out for a second helping, when the deep voice stopped his movements.

“All you had to do was ask…Lieutenant.”

Kakkarrot spun around, not realizing how guilty and cute he looked with a dab of icing still stuck at the corner of his mouth. He found himself gaping at the towel clad Vegeta, who was still dripping wet from his shower, droplets of water clinging to a well-muscled and toned body, as he strolled nonchalantly towards him with a smirk on his face. Reaching Kakkarrot, he began to lean forward, not taking his eyes off the taller boy’s face as his hand reached out towards the cake behind him. Vegeta almost laughed at the surprised look on Kakkarrot’s face, enjoying the fact that his close presence was having an obvious effect on him, although his heart was thudding at mile a minute. Bringing the cake towards him, Vegeta stuck his own finger into the rich frosting and still pinning his gaze on Kakkarrot’s now red face, he brought them slowly to his mouth, licking them in a way that was clearly seductive in its movements.

Kakkarrot was mesmerized at the display. His eyes followed every move, his throat and mouth suddenly feeling dry as he darted out his tongue to moisten them.

“Mmmm…” Vegeta moaned softly, closing his eyes in obvious enjoyment. Opening them slowly and seductively to reveal eyes that gleamed with devilish intent, he continued huskily. “I just love eating cream, don’t you?”

“Cr..cream?” Kakkarrot asked dumbly. Something at the back of his mind telling him that somehow they weren’t exactly talking about the cake here.

“Yes, Kakkarrot.” Vegeta replied, coming closer to the taller boy. “Thick, white, delicious cream. Don’t you just love the taste of it?”

Kakkarrot felt the room spin slowly and his vision get a bit hazy.

~ Kuso! I am supposed to be upset with him and here he is seducing me. ~

Lifting his hands, he gently ran them up Vegeta’s muscled arms, feeling the smoothness of his skin and listening to the soft sigh that spilled out of the smaller boy’s mouth. Placing his hands on Vegeta’s shoulders, he began to lean towards the now parted lips, feeling his breathing become extremely strained.

Vegeta closed his eyes, waiting for Kakkarrot’s lips to taste his again. Oh, God! He had been waiting all day for this to happen. For several seconds, Vegeta waited and when he noticed nothing happening, he opened up his eyes to see Kakkarrot staring at him with a blank look on his face. Feeling a bit confused, he tried to arch himself into the taller boy, but he realized he was pinned in position by the hands on his shoulders.

~ Why is he looking at me like that? ~

“Vegeta?” Kakkarrot said finally, in a flat voice.

“Yes…”

“I am going to take a shower and when I get back, I think you and I need to have some issues straightened out.”

“Is...Issues?” Vegeta asked dumbly, not really understanding the sudden change in events.

“Yes, Vegeta. We have to talk.”

Vegeta stared blankly at him for several moments, letting the words sink in slowly. Talk? Talk?! He didn’t want to talk. He wanted Kakkarrot and he wanted him now!

“No!”

Kakkarrot spun around to face him, since he had begun to turn away, gaping at the single word that Vegeta had spat out.

“What do you mean, ‘no’?” He asked in bemusement.

“I don’t care anymore, Kakkarrot.” Vegeta said flatly, his eyes flashing with a fire that seemed to make them even darker. “I am tired of waiting for you to come around. We both want this, so why prolong it any further?!”

Kakkarrot stood stunned. He couldn’t believe what he was hearing. His mind seemed to be split in two. One side wanted to take that cocky attitude of Vegeta’s and shove it somewhere very painful, while the other side tingled with anticipation at the underlying threat that the smaller boy conveyed. Shaking his head to get rid of the last thought, he growled softly. Didn’t Vegeta know what he was doing?

“Are you crazy?” He asked angrily. “Don’t you even realize what you have done?”

“I don’t care.” Vegeta replied smugly.

“You don’t care? You don’t care?! Why should you? After all, you are just a visitor, passing by for a brief stay at the ‘joint’, experience the shit and then take off after your stay!! I live here, Vegeta!! My whole life is here!! I have nowhere else to go to! I don’t have a home! I don’t have a family!!! THIS IS MY FUCKING LIFE!! And if you think you are going to ruin it with some stupid story about you and I having sex together, making me lose everything I have worked for, then you are in for a rude awakening!!” Kakkarrot finished bitingly, now inches away from the other boy’s blank stare.

Vegeta stared at Kakkarrot with dawning comprehension. He remembered his hasty spoken words at the Junior Mess and he cringed inwardly. Shrugging, he decided it was too late to back off now. Maybe it was the seductive rhythms of the music or the sugar rush from the chocolate, he didn’t know. All he knew was that he was on fire and quite frankly; he wasn’t about to give in to Kakkarrot’s anger now. Standing on tiptoes, he leaned into Kakkarrot’s mouth, hearing the soft intake of his surprised gasp as he whispered softly into the warmth.

“I told you, Kakkarrot. I just don’t care.”

And with that, he closed the distance between their lips, his body going into a fiery blaze of fire as he felt the slow reluctant response from the taller boy. Vegeta slid his hands up Kakkarrot’s arms and onto his shoulders, latching on to them in a frenzied grip as he deepened the kiss, sliding his tongue into Kakkarrot’s mouth and gasping as he felt the other’s tongue meet his in a spar for dominance.

Kakkarrot could not believe he was letting this happen to him. He was supposed to be upset, goddammit! He was not supposed to respond to Vegeta. He couldn’t afford to. He couldn’t weaken his resolve now.

~ Only two more months, only two more months, and then he will be gone. ~

But Kami, it wasn’t working. Reluctantly, his body betrayed his mind, straining and springing to attention at the feel of Vegeta’s hot flesh against his now burning skin. He tried to push Vegeta away from him, releasing his mouth with a struggle from the soft, pliant ones beneath him.

“Vegeta…” He muttered weakly. He had to make him see.

“Kakkarrot…” Vegeta replied, his voice deeper than normal, his face flushed with blatant lust as his hooded eyes roamed over the handsome visage before him.

“Please, Vegeta. You have to listen to me…” Kakkarrot tried to say, before he saw the quick flash of determination that flicked through Vegeta’s face. “What the…?” He managed to blurt out, as Vegeta suddenly pushed him onto his bed. He tried to get up, but Vegeta effectively straddled his hips, pinning him down. With a devilish glint in his eye, he leaned forward until their lips were only inches apart.

“I don’t want to listen to you anymore, Kakkarrot. You seem to talk way too much.”

“Vegeta! I do not….Aahh!!” He screamed, as he arched sharply off the bed. Vegeta had swooped down and had taken one of his nipples into his mouth, sucking the already hardened flesh within his warm mouth. Grinning at Kakkarrot’s reaction, Vegeta redoubled his efforts, taking the other nipple between his thumb and finger and tweaking it roughly, while continuing his ministrations on its counterpart. Kakkarrot bucked and arched off the bed, sinking his hands into Vegeta’s soft thick hair and shutting his eyes as the tremors wracked through his taut body.

“Oh, God! Vegeta! You…have…to….stop…” Kakkarrot pleaded feverishly, his mind screaming rejection, his body screaming for more.

“I don’t think so, Kakkarrot.” Vegeta said, drawling softly as he blew gently on the wet flesh and smiling in glee at the responding shiver from the strong body beneath him. “You want this as much as I do.”

“No…please…no…Oh God!! Vegeeetaaa!!” He moaned out again as Vegeta’s hand brushed against his strained arousal, now very obvious within his boxers.

“Yes, Kakkarrot, yes.” Vegeta mumbled huskily, lifting Kakkarrot’s hips as he yanked the black shorts off in a swift move, exposing the erect flesh in a flourish. Kakkarrot blushed furiously in embarrassment coupled with a growing need for the taunting boy. He stifled a choked scream, as Vegeta grasped the swollen flesh in his hands and began a slow stroking motion from base to tip as drops of his precum wet the curious hands, keeping his eyes pinned on the now hooded and glazed eyes of Kakkarrot.

~ Yes, Kakkarrot. This is how I want to see you. Wanton and wanting. Forget your obligations and just be the wild thing you really are. ~

Kakkarrot felt his eyes go hazy, as Vegeta continued with his slow torture. He wasn’t sure if he could take anymore of this without waking up the entire senior quarters. Squeezing his eyes shut, he arched up so sharply that Vegeta nearly fell off the bed. A small whimper escaped his mouth as he felt Vegeta take his hands off his swollen member, opening his eyes to watch the smaller boy walk towards the table in the room.

~ What the hell is he doing now? ~

Vegeta smirked wickedly. This was going to be better than he thought. He secretly thanked his mother for the tasty offering and then with graceful and seductive steps, he walked back to the lying boy, gingerly balancing the chocolate cake on his hands.

Kakkarrot stared in confusion as Vegeta walked towards him with the dessert. Did he want to eat now? When he was in a state of complete and total need for….

“I am hungry, Kakkarrot.” Vegeta said huskily, placing the cake next to his head and sinking lean fingers into the white covered frosting. Making sure that his fingers were completely covered with it, he raised them to Kakkarrot’s lips urging him to lick it off. Keeping now amused eyes on the smaller boy’s face, Kakkarrot snaked out a waiting tongue and with slow strokes, he sucked and licked the icing off Vegeta’s fingers, smiling at the strained gasps and low rumble that spilled out from the other boy’s mouth. He finished with a tiny nip on Vegeta’s forefinger, now grinning as he dipped his own fingers into the cake and raised them to Vegeta’s lips, watching with dilated eyes at the thoroughness that the younger boy displayed.

Vegeta dipped his hands again, gathering a fair amount and smirking in devilish delight, he smeared his chocolate covered hands all over the muscled torso in front of him, making sure no area was left uncovered. Kakkarrot closed his eyes and bucked gently, moaning in slight delirium as Vegeta began his slow journey down his body, licking, biting and eating his way down to his turgid flesh.

“Oh, Kami…Vegeta….”

“Mmmm….” Vegeta drawled huskily, sliding up and down the slick body in seductive slowness, feeling the jolts of electricity that flowed through them as strained arousals rubbed against the other. He reached up again to claim the moist and swollen lips of a now panting Kakkarrot, gasping at the ferocity of his response, as chocolate-coated mouths and tongues slid against each other frantically.

In a swift move, causing Vegeta to yelp in surprise, Kakkarrot turned them both over, reaching for the cake (at least what was left of it) and responding in kind, he smeared it all over Vegeta’s body, wrenching away the towel from the lean hips and exposing Vegeta’s very erect penis. Vegeta bucked up sharply, hissing in his breath as Kakkarrot ate his way down his naked chest to his nether regions. He whimpered in protest as Kakkarrot deliberately ignored his obvious arousal and instead concentrated on his inner thighs and calves, exaggerating his light kisses on the muscled regions.

“Pl..please…Kakkarrot…” Vegeta pleaded, not able to take the torture anymore.

Dipping his hand into the last few pieces of the dessert, Kakkarrot grinned broadly as his hands began to slide over Vegeta’s arousal, coating the sensitive skin with the chocolate sweetness. Vegeta bucked and thrashed against the stained sheets, throwing his head back as he felt Kakkarrot’s warm mouth engulf his prepared flesh.

“AAAHHHHH!! KAKKARROT!!” He screamed in pure ecstasy, nearly toppling Kakkarrot over in his frenzied movements. He sank his fingers into the raven locks and shut his eyes, feeling his whole vision disappear into oblivion as Kakkarrot worked his magic on him. He thought he would probably die from the slow thoroughness of Kakkarrot’s strokes, licks and light nips and he thrashed wantonly, his entire being, asking, wanting, needing and craving for oh, so much more.

Kakkarrot smiled, enjoying the noises that the smaller boy was emitting. Working his way down to Vegeta’s sacs, he pulled gently on the skin, licking them as he slowly slid his now moistened fingers into Vegeta’s tight opening.

Vegeta, who by this time could no longer differentiate between reality and his place amongst the heavens, tensed slightly as he felt the invasion. Opening his eyes, he looked into the lazy, hooded eyes of his lover as the unspoken words were communicated.

~ Trust me, Vegeta. I won’t hurt you. ~

~ I know, Kakkarrot. I trust you. ~

And oh, yes! Did he trust and love him, knowing that this was the one person he could be with, despite their differences. He relaxed slowly as Kakkarrot caressed his inner walls, feeling the stirrings of something huge build up within him. With a howl, he announced the presence of Kakkarrot’s fingers against his pleasure spot, feeling his mind wither into nothing but delicate sensations of unbelievable heights, as Kakkarrot continued his explorations. He was going to explode. He couldn’t take it anymore. He wanted Kakkarrot inside him. To be one with him.

“Kakkarrot…”

“Yes, Vegeta. Now.”

Kakkarrot raised himself up and gently reclaimed Vegeta’s lips again, darting his tongue into the welcoming mouth as he slid his unsatisfied arousal into the prepared slickness of Vegeta’s heat. Both boys stilled their movements at their sharp intake of breath. Releasing each other’s lips, they stared wide-eyed at each other in shock, disbelief, and amazement.

~ Oh, Kami! Kakkarrot…~

~ How can this be? I can’t be… Oh, God! ~

The sudden initial pain passed swiftly and it was quickly replaced with the slow rush and heat of pleasure.

Not releasing each other’s eyes, Kakkarrot began a slow thrusting motion, feeling Vegeta grip him tightly around his waist with his strong legs as he bucked up in rhythm to the thrusts.

Vegeta stared up at Kakkarrot with all his hidden emotions blazoned across his face. He didn’t care if Kakkarrot saw it or not. He couldn’t hide it anymore if he tried. He loved the stoic officer and would have willingly given up his chance for freedom just to be with him in this miserable place. However, reality would have to set in sooner or later. This wasn’t going to last, he would leave eventually and might never get a chance to see him again.

Feeling the hot sting of tears, he was powerless to stop the few drops that slid out of his eyes, as he stared longingly at the flushed face of the boy he had come to love and admire, above him. Shutting his eyes, giving himself up to the moment, he crushed their lips together, tasting the salt of his tears as he thrust feverishly against his lover. He was soaring, his mind completely blank of coherent thought, flashes of color flicked through his blinded vision as Kakkarrot’s thrusts became harder and faster. He sank his fingers into the muscled back, gripping the solid flesh and drawing blood as he felt himself approach the brink of no return.

~ Oh, God!! Kakkarrot!!!! ~

“AAAAHHHHH!! OH, GOD!! YEESSS!!” Vegeta screamed as he exploded his essence between their slick bodies. He stiffened again as he felt Kakkarrot swell and then release his own juices into his body seconds later, barely recognizing the answering howl from the taller boy. Moaning weakly, he clutched himself to Kakkarrot, feeling their bodies tremble violently with the aftershocks of their orgasm.

Several minutes went by as each boy tried to catch his ragged breaths. Vegeta had buried his face against Kakkarrot’s neck, still sobbing quietly, leaving light kisses on the sweaty, muscled neck. He never knew it could be this good, this right, and this mind-blowing. He felt Kakkarrot’s hands stroke his hair and back gently and he began to purr in silent content, his mind going into a dazed stupor.

Not asking any questions and not needing to, Kakkarrot lay them both down amongst the tousled sheets, and making sure that they were both covered within the blankets snugly, he cuddled the lethargic Vegeta into his arms.

Shutting his eyes in weariness and happy satiation, Kakkarrot made a mental note to himself to get rid of the letter as early as possible.
