Paired Couple: ZakXPips/SLASH! Lime
A/N: Ferngully is not mine, nor are the characters. They belong to their respective creators. Don't sue, blah blah blah... If you don't like slash, yaoi, boy on boy romance and sex, don't read! Enjoy!
Shocked, Zak shot out of the water, gasping for air. "What was that for?"
"Since we're back on good terms, I thought you'd enjoy a dip!" He stuck his tongue out at him.
Zak dove down to him before Pips knew what happened.
The red head found himself headfirst in the river. He swam his way back to air.
"Since we're on good terms..." Zak smiled arrogantly.
Pips zoomed out, intent on getting even. The blond flew out of harm's way, the red head chasing after him.
Eventually, in a clearing far from the river, Zak dove under a pile of fallen leaves, thinking his ruse would trick Pips.
The other faerie had sensed his intent and feigned confusion to allow Zak to let down his guard.
One second, Pips was searching for him. The next, Zak found himself sufficiently pinned.
"Don't think you can fool me!" Pips laughed as he wrestled Zak on the ground.
By the time the two were exhausted, the sky had darkened and the sun was starting to fade. The faeries laid down ion the grass, watching the stars appear.
"I'm glad we're back to being friends." Zak sighed contentedly.
"Me too." Pips yawned.
"You won't mind me asking if I was to know why you were mad at me thought, right?"
Silence was Pips' only answer as he pondered the right words.
"I believe I was scared." Pips admitted.
"What were you scared of?"
"It's not really important." Pips said quickly, slightly embarrassed.
"Come on, Pips. Even if it's not important, I'd like to know so I can better understand what had happened four seasons ago." Zak looked over into Pips' emerald eyes.
"I was scared... because... I wasn't sure how you'd be able to handle being a faerie."
"I seem to handle it just fine."
"I know that now, but at the time, what if you agreed to being a faerie and after a time you realized that you regretted it? Not only would I have put my hopes up in believing that you'd always be here, but what if Crysta had messed up, like she did when she accidentally shrunk you? Something internally, and irreversible, could have gone wrong."
"So you're saying that you were afraid of either me regretting my choice and leaving, and that Crysta could have messed up casting the magic?"
"Yes."
"Huh... I see what you mean."
"Exactly! And I was angry because you were willing to risk that."
"So it really wasn't about my mistake?"
"Hardly. Like you so stated, I had forgiven you earlier that day."
"Then why did you make it out to be otherwise?"
"I..." This was the one question that Pips hadn't been prepared to answer. "I... was hoping that maybe pointing out the mistake would make you realize that potential risks you were taking."
"That doesn't make sense. It would have been easier to tell me your concerns rather than go around it-" Zak stopped short.
"What?" Asked Pips, noticing the look of concentration upon the blond's face.
Zak sat up suddenly. "...Unless you were hiding something."
That got Pips so sit up, but for a different reason.
"What would embarrass you,, that you would hide your actual concerns?"
Pips averted his eyes. "I don't know what you're talking about."
"Is it because you felt that Crysta and I had feelings for each other?"
"Leave it alone, Zak."
"That can't be it." Zak mused to himself. "Every one knows that me and Crysta will always just be friends. And if you had feelings for Crysta, you would had spent a lot more time around her lately, like you used to when I was a human."
"Zak..."
"What are you truly afraid of, Pips?"
"ZAK!"
"WHAT?"
The next thing he knew, Zak found himself being thoroughly kissed. The rough lips grazed his in a domineering way, as a tongue that faintly tasted of exotic fruits swept through his mouth and gently licked and sucked his own tongue sensually. One strong hand wove its fingers through his hair, gripping tightly, while the other cupped his chin to guide the kiss.
It took a moment for Zak to register that it was Pips, who had also unknowingly settled himself in his lap.
Just as fast as it had come, Pips broke the kiss.
Zak blinked a couple of times, as if waking from a dream, and asked, "What was that for?"
The red head's wings flitted for a moment, hovering him high enough to stand. "You wouldn't shut up." He answered, as if it was an obvious solution.
"So you kissed me?"
"What else could I have done, aside from hitting you?"
"You could have told me to shut up."
"And what?" Pips beamed. "Miss out on the fun?"
"Fun?" Zak stood up, perplexed.
"I thought it was." Pips turned his back to him and flew off.
Still confused, but starting to put the pieces together, he followed.
"What do you mean by that?"
"What do you think I mean?"
"Don't play games, Pips."
"No one's playing any games here." Zak could hear the laughter in that statement. Zak stopped mid flight as he grabbed a hold of Pips' arm.
"What is it?" Pips said innocently.
"You think kissing is fun?"
"Well, yea."
Zak couldn't help but laugh. "So you kiss other faeries that don't shut up? Or is that a common practice among everyone in Ferngully?"
It was Pips' turn to laugh. "I don't kiss other faeries and it's certainly not a part of our culture! Don't humans usually kiss other humans that they like?"
"...Yea..."
"Well then, there you have it! Our cultures match in that aspect. And yes, I thought that kiss was fun for my first time."
"Your... first time? I thought you and Crysta were-"
"Together? Yea, most of everyone in Ferngully knew we weren't but they expected us to be eventually. But after many years of pursuing her, she let me know her exact feelings for me, which was that of a friend and nothing more."
Zak pondered this. "So... when you kissed me..."
"It was my first, and yes, I like you."
"...I-I didn't know you felt that way about me."
"Is that good or bad?"
"Ummm..." Just as Zak was about to answer, a large drop of water fell out of the sky and landed on him. Although it was relatively warm, it was like someone splashed half of him with a bucket of water.
"We should find shelter until morning. We're too far from the hollow to make it back now and it's too dark to see anything." Pips stated as he observed a cloud strewn, velvet black sky.
They set off and soon found an abandoned nest inside the trunk of a tree. By the time they had settled inside, it was raining harder outside and both fae occupants of the tree were soaked as a testament of their hurried flight to shelter.
As Pips cleared away any extra debris inside the nest, Zak gathered a small bundle of bark and dead leaves to start a fire. But as a precaution to avoid setting the whole tree on fire, the blond picked a big piece of bark and went outside to dampen it.
A couple of minutes later, they were drying off in front of a roaring fire that Zak had prepared from rubbing two dry sticks together. This had enthralled Pips at first, having never seen the element before, but after a similar warning that Zak had given to Crysta a long while back, Pips knew enough not to touch it.
"So is that good or bad, Zak?"
"About what?" The fire was so refreshingly warm, that the blond had started to doze.
"You had said that you didn't know I felt that way about you."
"Oh..." Fatigue was forgotten immediately, to be replaced with timidness.
"So..?" Pips queried after an appropriate five minutes of silence.
Zak sighed, his face reddening. "Well, to put it this way, I never thought of much of anyone in that way."
Pips cocked his head to the side in confusion. "Why not?"
"Well... I was always too busy..."
"With your job-thing?"
"Yea... I just never had the time."
"Well, what about when you first arrived here in Ferngully? You didn't think about Crysta in that way either?" Pips asked, curious.
"At first, I might have." Zak admitted. "But then, I thought that she was with you, so I resisted getting closer to her."
"I see..." Pips rested his chin on his knees as he drew them up to his chest, all the while looking over at Zak, who seemed to be lost in thought. "What are you thinking about, Zak?"
"Hm? Nothing."
Pips crawled over to the sprawled blond, who had his arms crossed under his head, and straddled him. "What are you thinking about, Zak?" He asked again with a devilish grin as he stared down at him.
Zak blushed furiously and tried to sit up to get out from under the red head. Said red head pushed him back down. "Well?"
"I'm thinking about you getting off of my lap!" Zak yelled nervously.
"And why should I? You're enjoying it as much as I am." Pips raised an eyebrow suggestively, holding his not-so-innocent smile.
A/N: ! I love cliff-hangers, don't you? :D Stay tuned and we'll see what happens next!
