DO I tell him?

Do I not?

Should I tell him?

Should I not?

Kyo sat down on the couch, brushing his hair. It was a miracle he wasn’t asleep at the time. His hand moved up and down, brushing those blond streaks with a comb but his mind wasn’t there. The singer was pondering so much that he forgot the time and forgot sleeping. Kyo blinked innocently few times, still pondering, asking himself the same questions again and again and again.

The door was suddenly opened and a young man walked out the bedroom, holding a towel.

Kyo didn’t notice

Should I should I not…?

Kyo missed the other person walked across the living room and headed to the kitchen.

You suck…

No, too harsh. Should start with…we need to talk. Please…this is about our sex life. But how if he goes, what sex life? How if he isn’t thinking what I’m thinking? Maybe I should say it simple and clear. Maybe I should say, Kirito, do you think foreplay is important? To me, it is. And I realize, you don’t do much of it. SO…um, maybe you wanna give it a try? Can we have a night of foreplay?

Yeah, sounded good!

Kyo jumped, *gasp* as arms snuck around his waist and slightly pulled his little body up, "What’re you thinking of? Me?" came a voice.

Kirito kissed his cheek and waited.

"OH…I-"

"Speaking of which, let’s take a bath together" Kirito pulled him up and Kyo gave a confused look.

"I feel so cold! I want to take a hot bath, come with me!" The other vocalist smiled and pulled him across the room toward the bedroom. Kyo was too shocked to react. He couldn’t believe his own ears, which he shouldn’t (in his case), -_-; If Kirito was so cold, he could’ve asked Kyo to go to bed with him! Then he could have hugged Kyo all night long! Spent some sweet time kissing and touching…

Is he seeing me as a koibito?!

IS it me?!

Am I cold? Do I have cold aura around me that he needs to take hot bath when he’s cold?! Can’t he just hug and kiss me and…aren’t I warm? I’m human too!

Kirito walked toward the bathroom, opened the door then pulled Kyo in. The Pierrot vocalist hung the towel behind the door and started taking off his clothes. Kyo did nothing. Part of him was upset and angry. Another part of his own self wanted to kiss and touch and hug Kirito. He just couldn’t resist looking. And again, he was so deep into his thoughts that he didn’t notice Kirito had done taking off his own clothes and was now taking off HIS.

"…"

"Eh? Ah! What are you doing?!" Kyo snapped

Kirito looked at him weirdly, "Take a bath with me! I’m cold! I want you to be with me" he replied rather sadly and started taking off Kyo’s pants. The K***** singer blinked and looked around the bathroom. It felt warm in there, so nice. The weather was a little cold but in here, it felt very warm and cozy. The whole bathroom was set up nicely. Then Kyo realized there were things floating in the bathtub. Kyo blinked and looked more closely but they were rose petals or flower petals…they were…?

Kyo rushed to the tub and had a good look

"Kirito…why are there lemon slices?" Kyo asked weakly, too shocked. The other man chuckled and scratched his head, "Cuz flowers don’t suit you, and roses aren’t you" he smiled and cupped Kyo’s face, "I’m scared of scorpions and I don’t like seeing blood all over you while taking a bath, …so lemon is perfect isn’t it?" he winked. Kyo couldn’t help but smiled. Then all the sudden he was pushed into the bathtub with his koi’s lips sealed to his.

"Mnnh…" Kyo managed to utter but Kirito lay on top of him and cupped his face without parting the kiss. Then those hands lifted him up and he felt Kirito was running his fingers down the flat chest. "Ima…" Kirito whispered before taking a nipple in his mouth. Kyo gasped as his boyfriend bit down and tugged a little. Before he could say anything, Kirito’s lips came back and claimed his. Kyo protested by not responding to it, he wanted an explanation, he wanted to talk to Kirito, about he had been thinking of.

But eventually Kyo gave up and leaned in. Kirito’s hot tongue slipped between his parted lips and he gasped silently. Kirito thrust his tongue in and out, causing Kyo to moan.

"Kirito…we need to talk! Kirito, yameru" Kyo spoke helplessly but his boyfriend started to kiss down south, nibbling on his neck, to his collar bone and sucked both nipples before licking the area near his belly button. The Dir en grey vocalist moaned outloud, "Kirito…no. Stop…" he sounded as if he was begging. "I need to talk!" he hated this. Kirito was doing it again!

Kyo lost his words as Kirito lay right on top of him and rubbed their hips together. It felt so good, who needed talking?

YOU!!!! An inner voice yelled at him

OH, yeah…I need to talk to him…Kirito, Ki-…mnnnh…so good….

Oh God. Kirito bit down the skin of his neck while at the same time, with both hands teasing his growing desire. Kyo curved his body and tried to thrust but no, Kirito was a tease. Kyo moaned as those fingers pleasure him lightly. He wanted more…he really NEEDED more

And the lemon essence wasn’t helping. Now Kyo’s starving! He licked his lips and he could taste lemon. It was the weird taste that he had always associated with pain. He took a deep breath and he smelt lemon. In contrary to how it tasted like, to him, the smell was pleasant and …somehow reminded him of…sex. He opened his eyes and he saw those lemon slices. He couldn’t look at Kirito coz what he was doing right now could drive Kyo crazy!

Kirito smiled and bit Kyo’s earlobe, "Kyo…" he whispered, breathing hot air in.

Kyo gave a muffle noise

"…….."

"Ki chan… onegai?" Kyo rubbed their hips together, "I need it now…" he started pumping into the hands but Kirito let loose. And let go.

"Hey!" Kyo protested but his boyfriend ignored and turned away, pulling something up from the water. Kyo looked at him suspiciously but then he realized it was the tub plug. Kirito smiled and leaned over, licking his whole body.

"H-hey…what are you doing?" Kyo stuttered

"Tasting you…" was the reply. Kyo blushed and squirm a little, "But-but…"

"You have to wait till the tub dries then we can start" Kirito stated calmly and proceeded licking. Kyo gasped and gave him a slap, "You tease! Not fair! You put lemon slices which will obviously block the drain!!!"

Kirito laughed and winked

"Baka!"

"Kyo!" Kirito suddenly held his chin, "I thought you didn’t like foreplay"

*blink blink*

"Toshiya kun told me what you told him…there was a little bit of misunderstanding here. I thought you hated it, so I didn’t do it"

"…"

"Really?"

Kirito nodded

"Why didn’t u tell me?"

"Aren’t I not supposed to know?!"

"Baka!"

Kyo whimpered and rubbed their hips again, "But I still need…now that you know, can we start?"

Kirito smirk

"NO, you have to wait. You love foreplay didn’t you just say?"

"KIRITO!!!!"

(Minna san should know what happened whenever Kyo yelled with THAT voice of his right?)

*

"What are you doing?!!!!" Shinya shrieked as Toshiya stood in front of him, without his jeans. The basisst gave him a look, "What are YOU doing?! You’re supposed to take off your pants! Take it off! Off!!!" he moved and reached out for the younger man but Shinya hit his arm, "Stay away!!!"

"I thought you wanted me to teach you!"

"I never ask you to teach me!"

"But you ask me questions!!! Like you said, I’m the expert! You have to listen to me!"

"But you don’t have to take your pants off!!!!!"

Toshiya gave a frustrated sigh, "Listen Shinchan! This is useful! Don’t you wanna know how the sensation feels like?!" he asked tiredly. Shinya blinked and thought for a while, "…"the bassist narrowed his eyes and waited. He gave the other man a bored look and crossed his arms over his chest. Shinya bit his lip and slowly, DECENTLY unzipped his pants and turned away. Shinya cutely looked down at his pants while stepping out of them.

"Good boy, now listen to me!" Toshiya did a little praise and look around. He smiled finding an eyebrow pencil near the sink and Shinya watched as he began to draw on the mirror.

"Look. This is penis, you know"

He drew it

Shinya wrinkled his nose, "You don’t have to show off your drawing ability here…" he stated dryly. Toshiya flashed a grin and went on.

"This is when it’s not erected, which means you’re not aroused!"

Shinya rolled his eyes

Then Toshiya drew a bigger one, "This is when you’re erected. That means you’re big" he looked at Shinya, who nodded, "That’s what matters right? I know ne …" he blushed. Toshiya smiled and nodded back, "Hm"

"…" Shinya made no reply, which made Toshiya felt awkward because silence killed. He stared back at Shinya and the drummer blushed deeper when realizing it. "WHAT?!!!"

"Show you mine, see, see ne…." Toshiya stuck his tongue out and pulled the elastic of his boxers slightly and leaned backward. Shinya blinked and did the same, keeping himself away from the ecchi young man. The bassist noticed and pouted considerably

"Shinchan!!! This is free show y’know! It’ll never happen again!!!!"

>-<

"Come on!!!" Toshiya pushed. The drummer whimpered but bit his lip and peered.

"…"

"This is small ne…not erected like that one" Toshiya pointed at the drawing on the mirror, "Hmh, maybe I should’ve got it done but baka old man-" he stopped as Shinya looked up and stared at him curiously, "Eh? What did you say?"

Toshiya cranked his brain

^.^ "Oho, nothing Shinchan…" the basisst giggled

Shinya looked at him suspiciously and turned away.

"Ano…Toshi kun"

"Yeah?" Toshiya put his hands on the hips and looked at himself on the mirror doing various poses. Shinya looked at him thoughtfully, but the older man missed it. Shinya blinked and pondered hard.

"What?" Toshiya turned to him.

"…"

"WHAT?!!!"

"…eto…"

"W.H.A.T?!!!!!!!"

---reminds me of fuXion, kay, sorry---

"Gyah! Die kun is bigger!!!!!" Shinya blurt out (in fear) but we knew it could be something else…(like maybe he was doing it in purpose knowing how Toshiya was very conscious about his ‘size’

"…"

Toshiya went silent and so did Shinya. The bassist bit his lip and looked away. Shinya joined his eyebrows and waited for a reaction but--- there was none except Toshiya staring at himself in the mirror doing various poses.

"Don’t you care? I mean, …" Shinya asked. The older man nodded and gave a reason, "Yeah! But why would I compare myself to Die??? I mean, …he’s Die! I’m Toshiya!" he chirped. The truth was, not only he knew, he saw and FELT how BIG Die was.

But no one could be as okii as …

>< stop thinking hentai Toshiya!!! (?!)

Eh?

*blink blink*

Toshiya looked at Shinya and flashed a sweet smile.

"Shinchan honey, HOW DO YOU KNOW DIE IS BIGGER THAN ME?!!!!!!!"

Shinya jumped at the sudden deep tone and inched backward, "A….I saw…"

Toshiya raised an eyebrow, "Hah! You peered?!" The drummer blushed and shook his head strongly, "Iie!!! He was…walking around in here, naked"

Toshiya’s jaw dropped

They’re THAT close?!!!!!!

He pondered for a while whether he should tell Shinya about the night when Die bedded him…but…Toshiya stole a look at the drummer, who was now looking at the drawings and made faces. It wasn’t like Die and Shinya were together. The younger man might be naïve but it should be okay to tell him, but…how if…ne…Toshiya was so dying to tell SOMEBODY ‘I slept with Die gyah, I turn Die into a gay!!!!’

Toshiya blinked

Maybe not…

"So this is the skin here…" Toshiya suddenly pointed at the shaft (the drawing not his), "You can pull it up and down…" his voice trailed off, his mind spinning trying to make himself to forget about Die. "…like this" Toshiya put the pencil down and started to pretend he was holding something while at the same time his hand moved up and down. Shinya looked and nodded, "Okay"

"Guys play with this thing a lot. You can do it with hands, even…mouth"

Shinya fumed

Toshiya giggled seeing that and leaned closer, "Yeah! You just move your head and push the thing in and out your mouth. You tease with your tongue" the bassist stuck his pink tongue out and put up a hentai expression. Shinya blinked and looked at him in disbelief.

"Does it taste nice?"

Toshiya chocked

"Nani?!" he gasped. Shinya blinked again and looked at him, "You know, does it taste weird? Does it taste nice? How does it taste like?!"

Toshiya pondered a while, "Truthfully, it doesn’t taste nice" he stated. Shinya widened his eyes. "It’s the weirdest taste I have ever felt, and it’s…kind of…" he fumed and thought harder. The drummer waited curiously.

"Salty….?" Toshiya chirped unsure.

Shinya joined his eyebrows, "Salty?"

>-<

"I don’t know!!!!!" Toshiya shrieked, "How am I supposed to know?!" he stomped his foot on the floor and flushed. Shinya bit his lip and flushed too, "I don’t know! You’re the expert!" he replied hastily. The bassist scratched his head and looked away,

"I AM the expert (^.^), but…how do I know? When I do it, …it doesn’t appear in my mind! You know…." He tried to explain. Shinya was smiling foolishly and looked at the older man. Toshiya, though admitted an expert, was still as clueless as usual.

"I have no sense while doing it, well…except sense coming from down here!" he looked down to his crotch. "And when this thing down here wants something, it will get it! While that thing rules your whole body, you have no sensibility…" he trailed off, all the sudden…Toshiya remembered something.

"Totchi? Are you okay?" Shinya asked. The pretty face looked thoughtful, and pale.

"Toshi kun!" Shinya nudged him hard, "Hey! Wake up!"

Toshiya blinked and looked at him, "Oh, yeah…" he smiled sweetly, "Shinchan, I remembered something. But nevermind. It’s something you don’t want to know. Come, I’ll tell you something better"

"What?" Shinya smiled

"Massage"

"?"

"You’re good in massaging right?" Toshiya asked without expecting a reply, "The guy will be so lucky if you do that to him. But he’ll be even luckier if you don’t do it with your fingers" he winked and took Shinya’s right hand. The drummer jumped as Toshiya took his middle finger into his mouth.

"Toshiya!" he gasped, feeling the warmth surrounding his finger. Toshiya started to lick, and suck. Shinya whimpered but his heart was beating so fast that he began to feel very strange. What was it? The feeling…he was surely blushing hard.

Sensation

Really?

Just by sucking a finger?

Toshiya lifted his eyes up and stared into his eyes. Shinya caught the stare, and wondered how he had never seen Toshiya’s eyes so dark before. The drummer finally gave in, and stopped all those squirms and whimpers. Instead, he looked back, into Toshiya’s dark eyes, and parted his lips unconsciously.

… …

Toshiya slowed down and stared at Shinya, all the sudden wondering how could the virginal shinya became…sexy? The bassist brushed his teeth against Shinya’s finger and the drummer gasped, and exactly that second, out of context, Toshiya, without even knowing what went into him, leaned close and placed his lips on top of Shinya’s.

"!"

Shinya gave out a muffle sound, his arms flailing around, struggling to free himself. But shock and surprise and …things, stuff, whatever … made him lost his strength and Toshiya had to hold his arms tightly and kissed him slowly, without tongue.

The basisst tilted his head to a side, and Shinya unconsciously did the same. At this point, Toshiya was already wrapping his long arms hastily around the other’s body. Shinya leaned back, hips thrust forward against the other’s, and responded to the kiss with arms around Toshiya’s neck.

*

Ano, you don’t mind me asking about your sex life….do you?

I don’t mind ne, I’m actually glad you’re open to this thing now

Had he been so stupid, asking that damn question. Now what had he done to himself? Only to discover the danger after doing the action. Think, think, never think. He had a brain but he never used it! Now what had he done to himself? Watching Kaoru took out a new blanket and a new pillow from the cupboard, watching Kaoru set the bed nicely, putting the pillow and blanket next to his own, and hearing Kaoru saying something about sharing the blanket in case it was cold, seeing Kaoru scratched his head and chuckled as he said they could snuggle up to each other for warmth…

How could he NOT realize, how could he not see…the DANGER…..

How could he not see it coming?! It was like, as if, …he was GIVING himself to Kaoru!!!

But what Die really, really, wondered …was how could he NOT realize Kaoru was –damn- sexy before…

So fuckin sexy…

Fuckin

Die felt like fuckin him…

Yeah

*

"Oh my gosh Shinya!!!" Toshiya gasped aloud, catching for breath. He pulled away and leaned against the sink. Shinya panted and also leaned on the sink, trying to recover from the shock or whatever weakened him.

 

"Ano…" Shinya tried to speak but he was still too shock to. Poor shinchan had to take time calming himself down. Toshiya let out a laugh and bent down, trying to catch air, "No wonder Die hangs around with you so much!!!" he exclaimed and laughed more, "I was always wondering how much fun could you be!" he smiled and looked up at Shinya, who merely blushed.

"I didn’t…" he lost words. Toshiya giggled and patted his arm, "Mou, we have to do it again" he gave a pout

"Iie! I don’t want!" Shinya exclaimed and walked away, "I can’t believe I just kissed you!" he sulked. Toshiya raised an eyebrow, "Oh, not that we never did it before ne…and what’s with me? So only Die can kiss you?"

Shinya looked at himself in the mirror and waited a while before answering, "Die kun never kisses me. I kiss him"

Toshiya blinked and stared at the younger one

"Die kun is too chicken out to kiss me. He only says it, never mean it! Whatever he does, he does them without thinking" Shinya giggled and looked at Toshiya, who chuckled.

How true

* 

Kaoru turned his head around and saw Die chewing his fingernails. He chuckled and hit Die’s thigh playfully, "Hey! You’re not supposed to bite your nails!" but the red head jumped at that action. "Fuck Kaoru! What was that about?!!" he exclaimed fearfully. The older man blinked and sat up, staring at him in surprise. "Die…?"

The red head gasped and covered his mouth, "Ack! Sorry, I was- erm…I was, not here. I was thinking about…something…" he bit his lip and looked around, "What time is it now?" he asked. Kaoru joined his eyebrows and looked at him. This time, his lips parted and his eyes shone wonder. "Die, you have a watch. And why are you acting so weird all the sudden?" the older guitarist asked.

"Oh, yeah. I forgot, told you I wasn’t really here" Die answered weirdly and felt very awkward sitting on the bed like that, with Kaoru staring at him. Not knowing what to do, Die’s brain started to work, "Okay, so Kaoru. Which side of the bed are you sleeping on?" he gripped the pillow and moved CLOSER to the violet head. Die blinked and wished he never said that. Kaoru was now titling his head to a side and smiled.

"It’s not like as if we’re having sex or something, Die…"

*jumps*

"WHAT?!"

"OH…nothing. I wasn’t here too" Kaoru hid a smile and turned away, "This side, near the phone" he took the alarm clock from the bedside table and turned to Die, "What time do we wake up tomorrow? Are we doing any recording?" he asked. Die joined his eyebrows, "How do I know Kaoru? You’re the supposed leader, not me!" he stated defensively. Everything came out from him was defensive. Kaoru shrugged and grinned, "Oh, sorry. I wasn’t here"

Die glared.

"Heh heh…." Kaoru chuckled (gyah…kaoru baddie…) and put the clock back on the table. Then he sighed and lay down the bed, "Truthfully Die, I’m not sleepy yet, but if you wanna sleep now, I’ll turn the lights off. What do you want?" he asked without looking at Die. The younger one thought hard. Anything would do, to keep Kaoru away from those sinful thoughts of bedding him! (Mou, Die. What makes you so sure Kaoru wants to sleep with you anyway?) so keep Kaoru awake, mustn’t sleep, so at least he could be aware.

Die lay down on the bed too, but at the same time making sure there was a reasonable distance between the two bodies.

Show lie mad sexual

Shit.

1 sad sexually 2 sad sexually

STOP IT DIE!!!!!

It’s YOU who wanted to sleep with kaoru!!! Not the fuckin other fuckin way around!

Stop thinking about sex!

But- but…

Show lie mad sexual

"Die…"

What a husky voice

"Hey, Die…"

1 sad sexually 2 sad sexually

Damn you kyo!

(Kyo à =p)

Die held his breath as a hand touched his arm. He widened his eyes and turned his head around, to Kaoru.

"Hey, what are you really thinking? Care to share?" Kaoru asked. Die blinked, smiled nervously then looked around.

Eh?

The room was dim. Die looked up the ceiling and the lights were off. Now they were in the dim room, only with the bedside lamp on. The yellowish color illuminated the small bedroom. The bulb was too small to reach every single corner of the room, and when Die turned to see Kaoru, it was as if Kaoru was an angel with golden aura shone from behind. But it was actually Kaoru facing his back on the lamp.

Die flickered his eyes to Kaoru’s, and was completely struck by how Kaoru’s eyes had darkened a great deal. They looked more like…bedroom eyes. They were more alluring, hence, more charming, more attractive, sexier than ever, sucking Die’s eyes into the darkness, the sexiness, -

Stop it

 

This is Kaoru

Kaoru

 

Kaoru your good friend… You can’t do it!

Oh yes, you could! You slept with your other good friend didn’t you? Toshiya?

"Die, I thought you wanted to sleep so I dim the light, is it okay?"

came a voice. Die took a deep breath before replying, "Anything. I’m sorry"

Kaoru chuckled, "Nah, it’s okay"

There was an awkward silent and both men stared at each other. Die sensed something was in those eyes. Something very familiar… he had caught Kaoru’s stares before and he noticed how those eyes shone, there was ‘something’ in them. But no matter how deep or strong that ‘something’ was, Die could never tell WHAT it was. It was never a big deal since he was used to the way Kaoru stared at him. But now…things were different.

Die wanted to have sex

Die wanted to f*** Kaoru

Die wanted to b**** Kaoru

S***

It’s getting under his skin, it’s creeping up to his brain, but more importantly, it went down as well. It went down south, way down south and Die thought he could feel it.

"What’s with the silence Die?"

Kaoru leaned in and looked at him, with a smile. Die blinked and moved back a little, and laughed nervously. "Nothing, really…" he replied silently. The older man brushed his hair to a side and let them fall down freely. He sighed and stared into a corner, " Say, you had wanted to ask me a question just now. But…what is it?" he recalled the moment when Die wanted to ask him ‘somethings’ but he had told Die to move to his bedroom.

Die rolled his eyes, "Ma, I can’t remember myself!" he exclaimed, oblivious that it was obvious to kaoru he was lying.

"Is my sex life really bothering you?" Kaoru boldly asked. The red haired guy coughed and looked at him in surprise, "You can tell me, Die. Just becoz I’m different from you, it doesn’t mean I’m scary or anything. I’m still the pretty normal person you know as Kaoru" the older man shrugged. "You wanna ask me about my sex life….right?"

Die silenced

"Come on, it’s okay"

"…how does it feel….to be different?"

Kaoru smiled, "Pretty cool. The bad side is that, people can’t really accept. But the good side is that, of course…" he laughed, "I can have both"

"Oh…" Die made a reply, then laughed, "I remember asking you about this before. I asked you…about sex and you just told me to have go!"

Kaoru laughed too and got up, staring at him, "Then? Did you?"

"…huh?"

"Did you have a go?" Kaoru asked again. The red head could feel his heartbeat thumped against his chest and his palms sweat but thank god his voice disappeared. Or else, he would have said ‘yes!!!!’ and Die didn’t blame himself for that. Kaoru was his good friend, Kaoru was concerned about his sexuality and they talked about billion other things a lot. But this was a sudden change, a huge change in Die’s life and he wanted to tell Kaoru so badly, but he couldn’t.

"No…" he lied

"Why?!"

"…" Die looked away, "I have…no one to do it with" he lied more, guilty seeped into him but Die just had to lie! "I told myself maybe I should be thinking, about it, giving myself more time, but….when I decided to do it, there’s no one I could think of!" he laughed and looked at Kaoru, "I’m so embarrassed, I mean, who wants me?!!" at this point he looked at kaoru and noticed the look in Kaoru’s eyes.

The red head turned away, "Yeah, I’m…fat and, over weight!" he looked at his arms and sighed, "I even have double chin! I really need to lose weight!"

Kaoru’s eyes trailed from his chin, neck, and arms and back to his eyes. That just made Die’s skin crawled. It was not like, scary. But…dangerous.

"It’s not that bad Die…you’re okay. You’re not fat at all! Maybe you’re just…picky" Kaoru commented. Die blushed slightly while Kaoru shifted and supported his head with an arm and added, "There is nothing wrong with your body"

It sounded more like a whisper than comment or statement. No, maybe it sounded more like a purr, or a –

The younger man felt his head spinning madly.

Die blinked and looked at Kaoru. The older man smiled, the usual mature smile, then an arm moved up and brushed Die’s fringe. The red head looked at Kaoru confusedly. It was like, as if Kaoru was the older brother, and he was the younger one. Die looked into Kaoru’s eyes, and forgot his previous inner fights. He had wanted Kaoru, he had wanted to fuck Kaoru, but now…looking into his eyes…

Die wanted Kaoru to take him, to baby him…to do whatever Kaoru wanted to him…

"Kaoru…" he whispered.

The violet head narrowed his eyes and leaned forward, and Die shut his eyes as Kaoru kissed him.
