AN1: I’m back! I had such great fun in London, going shopping and doing all the touristy things. I spent about 250 pounds on comic books alone which now leaves me with the complete hardback cover Hellboy collection, Deadpool part 1 to 18 and the complete Deadpool; merc with a mouth miniseries also in hardback. It was a hell getting everything back home in my suitcase but I got home eventually! I didn’t get the time to write in London at all but I did write a little in the 8 hour bus-ride it took to get to get there. Please read the pile of angst I wrote being all tired and hopped up on warm chocolate.

000 The One 000

It was raining, he noted with little interest. Normally he would be glad for the chance to feel the rain on his skin after weeks spends underground but not now. It felt like he could never be happy about anything again actually. Why, you ask, well one simple reason really.

John had left him.

Gone and left for Antarctica, as far way from him as humanly possible.

Apparently the kid would rather spend the rest of his life with a bunch of Eskimo’s instead of him. He thought John loved him, he’d heard the kid say it so easily before but now he wasn’t even there when he needed to hear it most.

“You don’t need me…” Were the agent’s last words as he turned away from him and the life they could have had together just as easily as he had walked into it.

Hellboy still stood in the exact same spot as where he’d been when John had turned his back on him, hoping that this was all just a bad dream and that maybe, just maybe, John would suddenly be standing behind him again, tiny arms wrapped around his broad form as he told him he’d always love him no matter what.

“Crap.” The demon cursed as he felt tears prickling behind his eyes as the realization that something like that wasn’t going to happen hit him like a slap to the face. Why hadn’t he done anything while he still had the chance? Why had he just stood there as John got into one of the few business cars the BPRD owned and drove away?

Was he just going to wait for the kid to come back and tell him it was a joke, or maybe a test, and that they’d be together forever and live happily ever after?

That wasn’t going to happen, John hadn’t come back yet and he wasn’t going to come back either.

He was gone, forever.

Hellboy violently rubbed at his eyes as he tried not to think about it, tried to forget that John had walked out of his life a mere few hours ago as he finally forced himself to move out of the rain and back inside. John wouldn’t want him to catch a cold.

He returned to his room and felt like breaking down all over again as he glanced around the room that seemed to be so empty without the little agent’s cheerful laughter. His eyes caught on every single spot that used to belong to his nanny, usually littered with neatly organized stuff but now only occupying air and empty space.

There was no more paperwork on the tiny desk John had demanded of him after they moved in together, the closet where all his suits used to hang was empty and even the bed seemed less inviting without the agent’s body in it.

He dropped down on the couch, the couch they had bought to replace his old chair, and let his head fall into his hands. How could he have let John go without even a word, even when the kid had said he didn’t love him. Of course he loved him, damn it! Why else would he be sitting on this couch crying his fucking eyes out if he didn’t even care that much!

What he wouldn’t do to have John back in his arms again, he would tell him how much he loved him, he would propose to him if that was what he had to do to make the agent realize he couldn’t live without him. He would give up anything he ever had just to have his lover back.

He knew though that John wasn’t coming back on his own and crying about it wasn’t going to achieve much either, he had always been a man of action so all he had to do was take action. He rubbed at his eyes to get rid of the last of his tears and realized some sense behind his thoughts. If the agent wasn’t going to come back on his own he would just have to make him.

John was gone but he would bring him back even if he had to drag him back kicking and screaming! With that thought in mind he set out for the one man, or rather fish man, who might know how to get him on a plane to Antarctica.

He would get John back, and he would tell him he loved him if it was the last thing he did.

AN2: So yeah I don’t really know what I did there but don’t worry this week’s entry doesn’t stop here because I also had an 8 hour drive back to the Netherlands in which I could write! This part is happier but it also a little weird since it’s based on a dream I had (I have really messed up dreams when I don’t sleep in my own bed so be prepared for random shit to come flying at you). Enjoy!... again…

 “No.” John said as slammed the door in his face. The demon frowned at the action but realized that was probably something people did when they were having a fight with their significant other. He wouldn’t know though, John was his first lover and this was also their first (real) fight.

“Why not?” Hellboy whined as he pressed his ear against the door to be able to hear the answer.

“Because I said so.” John stubbornly insisted making him sigh.

“I heard that, but you still haven’t told me why not.” He knew he was whining but he still had to ask, he wouldn’t argue with the agent if he only gave him a reason.

“Because I don’t want to.” Again John’s persistence made him want to bash his head against the nearest wall. Is this what every couple went through when they fought, he was sure it wasn’t the same. There was a moment of silence from John on the other side of that door as well as from him before he broke it again.

“… Why?” He asked again as not even a second later the door flew open to reveal a pissed off Boy Scout, Hellboy barely managing to remain on his feet as he came face to face, sort of, with his pissed off lover.

“Because it’s all about location with you nowadays!” John yelled at him, revealing the source of the argument to the demon. Hellboy frowned as he realized how the agent felt, wracking his mind for clues as to why the human would think something like that.

“No, it’s not…” The demon said only to be interrupted by his angry lover a second later.

“Yes it is, the only reason you want to have sex in the kitchen is because we haven’t done it in there yet.” John yelled again though this time the words stung in his mind, they did have a certain amount of truth in them after all.

“That’s not… entirely true…” Hellboy tried to deny but the hesitation was obvious. He didn’t really only want to have sex in the kitchen because it was the only place left, that was only part of the reason. The other part was simply because he was horny.

“Yes it is and you know it. For Gods sake we even had sex in Manning’s office, on his desk! Just because you wanted to and I didn’t mind that but I’m putting my foot down about this one!” John said as he pushed past him and stalked out of the bedroom and into the living room, Hellboy, of course, instantly followed.

“You didn’t mind Manning’s office, you didn’t mind the plane and you didn’t mind the janitor’s closet so why do you care so much about the kitchen?” Hellboy asked as John blushed at the short list of locations, it was part of an even longer list, and refused to look at him.

“Because I feel like if we’ve done it in the kitchen you won’t find anything exciting anymore, that you won’t find me exciting anymore. I’m afraid that you’ll leave me.” John finally admitted as he dropped down on the couch, the demon slightly shocked at the insane thought of him not finding John sexually exciting anymore. He sat down on the couch next to the agent and forcibly turned him to face him so he could hug his lover’s form to him properly.

“I’m sorry I made you feel like that but you should know by now that I always find you exciting no matter the location or the situation.” Hellboy said as he pulled away from the hug to look his lover in the eye. “What can I do to make it up to you?” The demon asked as he ran his fingers through John’s hair lovingly.

“Have make up sex with me?” The agent said without a doubt or second thought, surprising him. He wasn’t about to complain though, he thought with a smirk.

“I love you, you know that right.” Hellboy said before leaning in to kiss his agent. The gentle kiss turned into a full blown make out session that left both of them panting for air and with suddenly much tighter pants.

“Yes, I do and just for the record, I love you too.” John said as he stood from the couch and offered the demon his hand, Hellboy took it with a smirk as he stood as well before lifting the human around the waist and throwing him over his shoulder. John laughed loudly at the eagerness in his actions as he practically ran to their shared bedroom, before he could make it there his lover stopped him though.

“Wait Red! In the kitchen!” John yelled as the demon paused in his tracks to shoot the agent a look over his shoulder.

“Are you sure? You don’t have to if you don’t want to.” Hellboy asked, trying to keep his excitement at possible kitchen sex with his lover out of his voice so as to not influence the kid’s decision.

“Well we’ve already done it everywhere else so what is one more place, right?” John shrugged as he said this as the smile that instantly broke out on the demon’s face was enough to wipe away any reluctance he might have felt.

“You’re the best lover ever.” Hellboy said as he turned on the spot and marched into the kitchen.

“I know.” John said as he was set down on the kitchen counter, any others words he might have said swallowed up by the demon’s mouth covering his own.

AN3: And this is where I had to stop because the person that was sitting behind me on the bus was reading along with me. The guy kept giving me weird looks after that, it was a little awkward. I hope you guys weren’t too disappointed with the small stories this week (and if you are just tell me and I’ll write you all something special next week!) but I’m going to go take a nap now since I’m still pretty damn tired from London and work. Bye!

~~~Read long and prosper, Sabaku No Kel~~~
