Zelgadis sat calmly on a rock outside the old temple, wanting to go in and look for a cure to his condition but remembering what Xellos said about men entering... other then Mazoku that is.... Gourry was leaning against a nearby tree looking at the sky daydreaming in his own little world.

"I wonder...." Zelgadis said allowed, his arms folded.

"Hmm? Wonder what?" spoke Gourry as he finally drifted out of his dreams.

"If he's doing something to them in there... if it's really going to be bad if we try and enter?"

"Oh...maybe he is. Who knows? Perhaps we should just trust Xellos more. He isn't all that bad."

Zelgadis opened his eyes and looked at Gourry as if he had just swallowed a whole cow. "You can't ever trust a Mazoku like that.... no mater what, they will betray you for their own gain...."

Gourry shook his head and sighed. "But sometimes you have to be open-minded! They may betray you in the end but at least you tried to become their friends by trust."

Zelgadis looked thoughtful. "Well... perhaps you have a point. After all, we did start out as enemies and now..."

Gourry grinned happily. "See! I was right! He is our friend. He may seem somewhat untrustworthy but he has a good heart."

"Heart, perhaps... but he might be concerned with more then just that."

"True, true but let's not always think so low of him. He is still a person you know. He can change his ways."

"Perhaps... but he is a Mazoku...." Zelgadis stood up, his cape waving out behind him as the breeze picked up... and it blew his hair as well.

"Yeah...a Mazoku..." Gourry watched Zelgadis movements eyeing him somewhat.

Zelgadis wasn't looking at him but at the entrance to the temple so he didn't know he was being admired. A tiny smile appeared on Gourry's face as several thoughts appeared in his mind as he peered at Zelgadis.

"Zelgadis, what are you thinking?"

"Wondering if the cure is in there... so I can be human again." He looked down at his hands.

"I should have known...” he whispered. "Why do you want to change back to normal for Zel? You look okay to me." Zelgadis's sharp ears pricked, making him sort of look like a deranged elf. He turned around. "I do?"

Gourry nodded. "Yes you do. You look very well.... exotic or mysterious like this. I see nothing wrong with you. The stone skin makes you look very well.... handsome."

Zelgadis blinked and felt his heart flutter as he thought did he just say handsome????? His jaw dropped a little.

Gourry looked away from Zelgadis blushing from his embarrassment. Did I just say he was handsome!? He thought. Oh god...I hope he isn't gawking at me…

Zelgadis looked away too... and had the equivalent of blushing for him hitting his stony cheeks. Gourry took a quick glance at Zel worrying if he offended his friend.

"Zel...I'm so sorry...maybe I shouldn't have said that. I didn't mean to like...like...well..." He started to trail off.

"Gourry.... I... well.... you're very handsome too...." Zelgadis managed to blurt out.

"Really!?" He looked shocked. "Oh.... thank you very much.... I didn't think.... that I would be handsome."

"Why not? You're not part golem... or part demon... like me..." Zelgadis said those last words quietly, more to himself.

"Zelgadis, nothing is wrong with you in my eyes. You look perfect. Being part demon doesn't make you ugly..."

"It's.... I'm hard as a rock... I'd not be very good for close contact...." Zelgadis flicked his own arm to show how hard his flesh was.

Gourry smiled at him. "But the harder they are the more fun you have with them."

"Eh?" Zelgadis blinked as he looked at Gourry.

"What I mean is, just because your skin is too hard for close contact doesn't mean your heart is. Your not stone everywhere you know." Gourry said looking back at the sky.

I never.... thought he could actually think from time to time... Zelgadis thought, staring at Gourry's long blonde hair.

Gourry's bright blue eyes were totally focused on the light blue sky and the white clouds ahead. "Zel...how long will Xellos be in there...I'm starting to worry now."

"I do not know.... but so far no Lina casting dragon slave so either she can't or she has no reason to..."

"Let's hope for the best then. I'm sure she is okay. She is spunky young woman. She would never give up easily anyways." He looked back at Zelgadis smiling happily.

"Yes. And if she couldn't even get word to us then it would either be too late or we'd be unable to help the situation anyway..." Zelgadis met Gourry's gaze.

He simply shrugged his eyes still starring into Zel's. "Yeah your right about that. Like I said again, lets just hope for the best."

"How long you think they'll be?"

"Well...since I was never good in time and hours.... or anything that has to do with numbers...I say they may stay in there for 3 hours maybe...."

Zelgadis smiled and chuckled slightly. He walked away from his rock and closer to Gourry. Gourry blinked in confusion stilling trying to figure out how long would they have to wait.

"But then again.... we might be here all night if this keeps up..."

"Maybe." He sat down next to where Gourry had been under the tree.

Gourry snickered slightly. "You know I have no idea! Oh well...we'll just wait." He turned and smiled at Zel. "I don't mind waiting if I'm with you."

"Yes. It's better then being alone, isn't it?"

"Yay...being alone is totally...well...lonely. I hate to be alone... I need some one to talk to constantly."

"I'm a good listener."

"That you are Zel! And you’re kind of cute as well making those two combination go together very well!"

"Cute?" Zelgadis blinked. He smiled shyly, "Never... not even when I was human... have I been called cute...":

Gourry's eyes widen. "Really? Well you are cute! Stone and all! Its very obvious that you are cute.... no beautiful really. I mean the cheekbones, the purple like eyes...and that soft lilac colored hair.... and the bluish skin makes you look very beautiful."

Zelgadis was blushing again. "I guess I just see myself as a freak... ever since Rezo made me like this... for my foolish request."

He noticed the faint tints of red in the stone like skin and grinned. "You know...your blushing. I think that is the first time I ever saw you blush. Very cute. I think Rezo made you look...well...sexier." He shrugged.

"Rezo wouldn’t have known since he was blind.... but... as long as you think so... it... must be right."

"Yeah...its just right...." Gourry sighed somewhat dreamily still looking at Zelgadis with a strange look of hidden passion in his aqua like eyes. Zelgadis smiled, their eyes locking again.

Gourry shyly looked at him now after finding almost the same look he had in his eyes in Zel's. "You know...Zel...I have to tell you something."

"Oh? Tell me?"

"Its kinda of...well...embarrassing ...and you might be angry with me..." He turned his head and stared at the sky again.

"What is it?" Perhaps his heart is where all his thoughts are? Zelgadis asked himself.

Gourry closed his eyes. "I need to tell him...now is the time...." he said in a faint whisper. "Zelgadis...I...for some times.... well..." He was very nervous and somewhat shaking. "Zel, you know...well we are friends right...but...what would happen if I told you I loved you more than a friend?"

He does think with his heart. This is the deepest I have ever seen him Zelgadis nodded and said softly, "I... feel that way too.... about you."

He quickly turned his face back to Zelgadis's direction starring at him in the eyes as if trying to see if he was lying to him. "You do...you really do!?"

"Yes... you're the reason I keep coming back when I go off on my own to find a cure... I'm drawn back because of you."

No words could express the utter joy that appeared in Gourry's face. "You was drawn back because of me...oh Zel..." He leaned forward and hugged him closely to himself.

Zelgadis smiled at the hug, being pulled against Gourry." Yes."

"I didn't know! Honest! If I knew sooner...I...we..." He pulled away from for a second and just smiled at him. Little drops of tears fell from his eyes. "Its like a dream come true...this is so perfect..."

Zelgadis smiled and reached a hand up to wipe the tears, careful not to hurt Gourry. "Sometimes dreams come true..."

Gourry took, Zel's hand and held it against his cheek. "Yeah, it does...I love this dream. Let's make this last forever."

"How?" Zel looked into his eyes again, marveling at the feel of soft flesh under his fingers.

"By working all our times in our new relationship...and by making our most inner dreams come true by each others help."

Has he gotten smarter or is it just me? Zelgadis thought as he smiled. "That does sound good."

"I hope it does! I know I can be real dense at times.... but Zel I really want this to work out for the best...." He kissed Zelgadis on the lips gently not sure whether or not it was the best move to make.

Zelgadis was slightly startled... mostly from the idea that anyone would want to kiss his stony lips... and partly that this was actually real. After the initial shock though he closed his eyes and gently pressed his hard lips to the blond airhead's. The kiss soon became a sloppy one when Gourry tried to tongue kiss Zelgadis. He wrapped his arms around Zel's waist embracing the other one in his arms. Zel soon found himself pushed into the ground by the large man kissing him, but he was enjoying every moment of it.

Gourry leaned away a little bit gasping for air. "Wow.... I didn't think I hand it in me." He moved his hand to Zel's hair stroking the soft lilac like locks. "Zelgadis...are you sure about all this...? I just want you to be very sure, so we won't be in a jam later."

"Yes... I just hope this isn't another one of my dreams... if it is I'm going to be very upset."

Gourry jovially laughed at the comment. "Nope this is no dream trust me!" He leaned down again and kissed the hard lips again, running his wet tongue over Zel's lips making them moist, while his hands rummaged all over his lover's body.

Zel's flesh was like stone, but it had it's curves and bumps like any body... and it was warmer then stone. Gourry enjoyed the touch of the foreign body underneath him and travels one of his hands south to Zel's pants and using the other one to pull off his shirt. Zelgadis didn't protest at all at the removal of his cloak. His body looked the same odd colorings that his face held... and the feel continued into his pants. His soft hand traveled, underneath the cloth of Zel's pants and grasped something extreme hard in his hand. Gourry removed Zelgadis shirt easily with one hand and went to work on nibbling on one of the blue colored like nipples on his chest.

Zelgadis was amazed that his part golem body was as sensitive as this seeing that swords and bullets had no feel when they bounced off him.... because of this he moaned softly and moved a hand up to stroke through that long mane of blonde hair that Gourry had. Gourry moved his hand roughly on Zelgadis’s length, making little swirls at the tip of his penis with his index finger. He moved his lips from the other nipple and traveled soft kisses down Zelgadis' chest. Zelgadis shuttered... the pleasure unlike anything he had ever felt or ever imagined before. Wanting more, and wanting to please the stupid but caring blond, he pulled at Gourry's chest armor, wanting to feel more of his soft flesh. Gourry felt Zelgadis hands moving all over his armor trying to take it off. He used his free hand out of Zel's pants and took off his armor quickly throwing them slightly somewhere. Then he leaned further down between Zel's legs and pulled down his pants revealing his erection.

Zelgadis shivered in both anticipation and the slight breeze he felt as his hardened cock met the air around them. His fingers still stroked the blonde's hair and now the other hand traced gentle lines across his chest. Gourry flicked his tongue out on Zel's penis, tasting some of its sweet juice it had to offer. Then he slowly buried his length in his hot mouth, traveling his tongue all around it. Zelgadis quickly moved his hands back and gripped the ground hard as he moaned, not wanting to accidentally hurt Gourry as his fists clenched in pleasure. He continued his ministrations; very pleased he was able to give Zel such pleasure and continued to suck on his length rougher, trying to suck out more of the bitter and yet sweet seed. Zel grit his teeth, but the moans of pleasure kept coming from him. His body was loosing all control, giving into the blonde’s desires.

 

"Mister Xellos got us lost again, Lina! That wasn’t very nice of him!" yelled Amelia as she ran out the cave raving mad.

Lina followed her out. "Yah... damn him.... what's that noise?" She blinked... the noise was Zelgadis moaning.

Amelia's ears pricked up. "Yeah...that noise...It sounds like Mister Zelgadis! Maybe he is hurt! Oh no! Where is Gourry!?"

Lina looked around, and walked around to where the trees are and shrieked.

Amelia ran over to Lina's side. "What is it!!!" She turned her head and looked in the same direction and Lina and screamed her lungs out. "ZELGADIS!!!! GOURRY!!!"

The two didn't even seem to hear as Amelia spotted them just as Lina fell over from the shock.

Terror struck through Gourry's handsome face as he looked up reluctantly to see Amelia looking at them. "Uh oh..."

Zelgadis didn’t know anything was wrong till Gourry stopped. He opened his eyes and blinked, seeing Amelia near by.

Poor poor poor, Amelia was pale as a white ghost and her eyes where dilated. "M-m-mister...Z-z-zelgadis.... and....ahhh!" She fainted to the ground as well.

Zelgadis blinked a few times. "Looks like.... the waiting is over."

Gourry couldn't help but laugh merrily. "Hahaha! Oh well...maybe we should throw them back in the cave."

Zelgadis chuckled. "It's a temple... not a cave."

Gourry blinked. "Really...I thought it was a cave...it looks like one...then again...what do I know!" He shrugged and looked at the two unconscious girls. "Can we just throw them in a maze or something...?"

"I think they're gonna be out a while..." Zelgadis grinned up at Gourry.

Gourry cheered. "Great! Now to get back to the important things!" He smiled down at Zel.

Zel nodded, smiling as well. Gourry filled his mouth once again with Zel's length continuing the same techniques as before. He rubbed his hands on Zelgadis' buttocks and then pressed only one of his fingers in the tight secret ring of muscle. Zel closed his eyes and gasped as his stony flesh moved under Gourry's touch.... it was almost too much pleasure for him to bear already. He inserted another slim intruder inside of Zelgadis and started to stretch him out slowly while still sucking on his erection, swirling his tongue at the very head of his penis. Zelgadis whimpered from it all, finding out he could stretch to begin with.... his fluids started to leak heavily.

Gourry took one last lick on Zel's penis, and then slowly took off his pants. He looked at Zel's flushed face and smiled softly. "Are you ready?"

Zel nodded. "Be careful... I don't want you getting hurt...."

Gourry nodded as well. "I understand...I will be fine. I'm just worried about you." He positioned himself between Zel's legs holding them both on his shoulder. Then he slowly and carefully thrusted inside of him feeling the roughness and the intense heat encircling his own length.

Zelgadis clutched the ground tighter, shocked that his body was this flexible as it felt like stone. He moaned louder and whimpered in the same voice. After burying his hilt inside of the welcoming stone body, Gourry waited for a minute to get used to the new feeling he was experiencing. This is too much to bear... he thought as he felt himself want to come right there. Steadily he started to thrust deeper into Zel moving slowly. Zel clutched him gently, still not wanting to harm him. He was already coming all over, as he had been highly stimulated from before.

Gourry grunted several times as he thrusted into Zel deeper than before using all his might. He felt the sticky wetness on his stomach and grabbed Zelgadis' penis in his hands once again stroking it. Zel grunted back and worked his hips with his new lover's, wanting to feel it more and more. This was truly an amazing experience to them both and Gourry felt as if he was having the time of his life. He thrusted into Zelgadis one last time before a he finally came with in him.

Zelgadis moaned hard, his eyes closed from the intense pleasure. "Ohh... Gourry..."

Gourry kissed Zelgadis gently on his lips. "Zel...I love you." the blonde finally said. He lay on top of his lover smiling dreamily.

Zelgadis curled against Gourry and licked his ear. "I love you too...."

Gourry sighed slightly and looked into Zel's eyes again. "But Zel...what will happen now? You know Lina and Amelia may tell...and who knows what will happen now."

"Tell who? What are you worried about Gourry?"

Gourry shook his head. "I guess I'm just thinking of many odd things..."

"Like what? Tell me your thoughts."

"No, they aren't important really. I just wonder what the others may think about us."

"I'm tired for once... why don't we get some sleep?"

Gourry rolled off of him and lay down beside Zel. "Yeah some sleep will do some good! You know the early bird does get the worm and....err..." He stopped to think for a minute. "Oh no...I lost my train of thoughts again...oh well." He took Zel's cloak and placed it over themselves.

Zel chuckled and snuggled himself carefully against Gourry's chest.

Gourry wrapped his strong around Zelgadis and just closed his eyes. "What a great day...."

"Yes... very good..." Zelgadis mumbled, his head on Gourry’s chest.

He stroked his fingers through Zel's hair. "Yeah...good." he thought. He opened his eyes looked back up at the sky and grinned. "I guess some one up there is smiling down upon us today."

"Mmm... Yes." Zel slowly fell asleep. Gourry couldn't keep his eyes opened any longer and he too fell into the welcoming darkness of sleep.
