Title: It's not a love song
Fandom: Heroes
Pairing: Peter Petrelli / Claude Raines
Theme Set: Gamma
Rating: R
Run
Claude is running, running for his life, from it; Peter is flying and Claude doesn't know where.
Hero
Peter wants so much to be a hero, to be good; Claude just wants to disappear.
Talent
Peter is pushing the boundaries of ability, past anything Claude has ever seen or heard, until the boy's ability shines out of him, brighter even than the sun.
Mask
Claude watches Peter from behind a mask, a facade of the bitter mentor; he is exactly who the boy thinks he is.
Hurricane
Peter has swept into his life, upturning everything Claude thought he knew, and leaving a swath of destruction in his wake.
Forgotten
Claude has forgotten how to act with another person, how to let them get close, but Peter makes him wish he could remember.
Laugh
Peter laughs like he has never been hurt; Claude never laughs anymore.
View
They stand together watching a sunrise from the top of the Deveaux building; Peter smiles and bumps their shoulders--Claude resists the urge to smile back.
Talk
Their time together isn't just about violence; they spend some time talking about dreams, abilities, what their future might hold.
Music
Peter whines about Claude's taste in music--though the kid himself listens to nothing but angsty emo crap--but the invisible man just smacks the back of Peter's head and leans back, saying, "Shut up and listen to Joy Division."
Wings
Peter flies so high, dreams so much, Claude worries his wings will melt in the sun's burning heat.
Memory
When Peter smiles, Claude remembers another time, another smile, another lover--it's only with an effort that Claude pushes the memory away.
Temptation
There is a shy smile hiding at the corner of Peter's lush lips and Claude can't resist, can't stop himself from leaning forward and tasting those tempting lips.
Whisper
Claude leans in, strokes a thumb across Peter's swollen lips, "I want to have you," he whispers.
Silk
It's been long time since Claude experienced anything approaching luxury but Peter's skin against his hands feels like finest silk.
Body
Claude is not beautiful, his body is a map of scars and pain--it is not a body made for love until Peter lays his hands on it.
Dance
Their bodies sway to a primal rhythm, the beat pulsing in their blood, bodies writhing in a dance as ancient as time.
Midnight
Claude lies awake, watching his sleeping empath--the clock strikes midnight and a new day begins.
Fire
Peter fucks like he's on fire--all burning mouth and soft, tight heat--like only Claude can extinguish the wildfire racing through his body.
Ice
Peter shivers and with a frustrated sigh Claude takes his hands in his and rubs the boy's hands until they're warm again.
Fever
Despite all his efforts to keep the boy at arm's length, Peter has gotten under Claude's skin, infecting him like a fever.
Fall
Claude had never meant to fall in love, but with Peter in his arms, he knows that it's already too late.
Sacred
Claude gets down on his knees in front of Peter and swallows his cock, worshiping him like some sort of profane idol.
Journey
Claude will use whatever means necessary to make sure Peter gains control of his abilities; he's always cared more about reaching the destination than enjoying the journey.
Gravity
Peter pulls in everyone around him, drawing them in, and Claude is no more able to resist him than he is to resist gravity.
World
Peter's breath catches in his throat and he looks up at Claude as though he were the center of his world.
Eclipse
Peter is light to Claude's dark but when they come together the aura they create is blinding.
Red
Claude bites stinging marks into Peter's neck; red bruises that fade before his eyes.
Formal
The first time Peter puts on a suit for one of his brother's functions, Claude fucks the boy up against the wall of his apartment, his hand clenched tightly on Peter's tie.
Cover
Claude yawns and drifts into a sated sleep; Peter grins smugly and pulls the sheets up over their tangled bodies.
Candle
Peter lights candles sometimes when they're together, thinking they're romantic; Claude just smirks, thinking of the many fun uses of hot wax.
Lock
There is a part of himself that Claude has kept locked away, a part that he hasn't shared with anyone for almost a decade; then Peter comes and all the locks click open.
Box
Peter is moaning and panting as Claude reaches into the bedside table and fumbles about, coming up empty-handed; "Fuck, did we go through an entire box of condoms already?"
Promise
"If you'll just listen to me, I will get you through this," Claude says, making promises as though he would keep them.
Strength
Peter seems fragile but Claude is quickly learning that the boy has the potential to be stronger than anyone has ever dreamed.
Lies
"I love you," Peter says; Claude looks into guileless eyes and says nothing in return.
Farewells
Claude no longer takes chances on people, no longer stops to say goodbye--he just leaves.
Unknown
Claude is gone and there is a gaping hole in Peter's life and he doesn't know if anything will ever fill it again.
Highway
Claude steals a car and starts driving, not headed anywhere but away.
Search
After two months, Peter gives up on looking--how do you find an invisible man?
Dream
Peter dreams of exploding and killing millions but it's the dreams of Claude that wake him in the middle of the night.
Drink
Claude drinks until he forgets his own name but even through the bottom of a whiskey bottle he still sees Peter's face.
Ring
Peter wears no ring, swore no vows; but still, he will belong to one man for the rest of his life.
Overwhelmed
Peter can't handle everything that's happening--his abilities, his family, his dreams--he can't do this without Claude.
Silence
Claude thinks he will never get used to this, this silence at his side where Peter used to be.
Hope
Peter never gives up hope; every time he sees a man who looks like Claude or hears a voice like Claude's, he turns with his heart leaping in his throat, only to be disappointed each time.
Wait
Claude broke his heart and Peter knows he should hate him for it; instead he'll wait for him for the rest of his life.
Cold
It is a cold foggy day when Claude comes back to New York; he pulls his coat tight around him and shivers with more than just the chill in the air.
Forever
After what feels like an eternity of indecision and apprehension, Claude finally goes looking for Peter.
Breathe
Peter sees Claude’s face, and he starts to breathe again.
