Ritornello


Knock, knock, knock. " Oi, Gojyo!"

What the hell?! Gojyo's head thumped lightly against the wall he was leaning on, strands of red silk catching on the rough wooden surface. He felt the tug on his scalp as he turned his head towards the door.

The banging grew more insistent, the plank vibrating under the assault, the person calling his name more irritated. " Gojyo! I know you're in there!"

Hands crept up the kappa's inner thighs, a head of auburn curls bobbing in his naked lap. Gojyo was sweating profusely in the cramped store room of Suoh-san's tavern. The bare bulb swung lazily from the low ceiling, giving off just enough illumination to turn Gojyo's tan skin a sickly orange and to dull the blue eyes of the girl currently sucking him off. He was pleasantly buzzed, far from drunk, but that hadn't really been his goal when he set out earlier that evening.

" Gojyo!!! Come on!"

There was a small noise from the area of his cock, something between a snort and a chuckle. Whatever it was, it felt great and Gojyo grunted as he felt his balls beginning to tighten. Oh, shit, so close... His head dipped forward, creating a waterfall of crimson over the girl, their hair mingling in contrasting shades of red. Soooo close...

BAM! Gojyo jerked his head back to the doorway to find splintered pine and a very pissed looking Sena. The girl in his lap continued her oral acrobatics. " Shit, Sena!"

" GOJYO! OUT! NOW! " The barmaid shouted, her voice shaking with fury. Sena pointed at the auburn curls and screamed again, " Fuck each other somewhere else, Inata!"

Inata pulled away, much to Gojyo's displeasure, and stuck her now unoccupied tongue out at the black haired girl. Gojyo remembered the way that tongue had tasted in his mouth.

" Sloppy thousandths ain't my style, bitch." Sena shot back. She was much calmer since she had the attention of the closet's occupants, though her language had taken a sharper edge as her volume diminished. " We're closing."

Gojyo knew he had had a few beers, and maybe a couple bottles of sake, but nothing that would have erased four hours; it had only been half past eleven when he had entered the storage room with his latest screw. " Sen-chan, there's no way it's three."

" I'm glad to see you haven't lost all of your brains down her throat." Sena snapped and placed both hands on her hips, moving her back against what was left of the door. " No, it's not three a.m., but we're closing up anyway. "

" Why?" Inata and Gojyo pouted in unison as they disentangled themselves. The kappa cringingly stuffed his erection back into his dark jeans, the girl re-buttoned her top and wiped her mouth with the collar of her oversized coat. Gojyo sent a glare in Sena's direction, he just couldn't comprehend the sudden ousting. It's not like we did anything wrong. Suoh-san always lets me use the back room. Luckily for him, the darker girl gave an explanation while she marched the two into the main service area. Gojyo noticed the flood of customers filing out the door and the clock on the wall that read a quarter after midnight.

" Because-" Sena was interrupted by a low groan coming from the upstairs, followed by a male voice shouting her name. The bartender quickened her movements. " - of that. Suoh-san's wife went into labor earlier today and she's close to her time. They need me upstairs. "

That sobered Gojyo a bit and the girl next to him seemed to have softened some as well. Concerned crimson questioned the dark haired woman as another moan floated down into the quickly emptying bar. " Do you need me to get 'Kai?"

A beautiful smile lit up Sena's face and the kappa had to wonder how the hell the girl went from evil scary to bright and sunny in zero seconds flat. " I don't think we'll have any complications, so there's really no reason to bother Hakkai-san. Thanks for the offer , though."

The trio had reached the door where cold wind was trying to force its way into the warm atmosphere of the tavern. Gojyo zipped his coat up, making sure the scarf was tucked into the hole where half his collar use to be, and double checked that the girl next to him was also well bundled. He turned to face Sena just before he stepped out into the winter night. " Are you sure you don't need anything?" Gojyo was very anxious to help in some way. I could like, I don't know, boil water or something. He also wanted to make up for the fact that he had been literally screwing around while someone was right above his head dealing with something so... big.

Sena actually laughed and gave the kappa a shove out the doorway, the other girl following him silently. " You're so serious, Gojyo. Women have babies all the time, don't worry so much about it. " She waved at them both. " Just wish us luck and be happy for them. The bar will be open tomorrow at the usual time. I'll see you then. Oh, and make sure you bring that back tomorrow, Gojyo, or Kino will kill me. " With a final smile Sena closed the door and left the last two customers standing lost in the street.

Gojyo surveyed the area, watching as previous patrons headed in various directions; some entered the drinking establishments nearby, a few seemed to have decided to go home, everyone from Suoh-san's had dispersed quickly. Too cold to just stand around, I guess. He shuffled his feet for a moment, watching his breath form little clouds that reminded him he hadn't had a cigarette in nearly an hour, before turning to his companion. " So... your place?" Despite the previous conversation his hard-on was still screaming at him to get the job finished. Unfortunately, there weren't any other places the kappa was willing to go. The other bars would be closing at one and he certainly couldn't take her back to his flat. Hakkai would have a fit. A silent fit of tight smiles and murmured understanding, but a fit nonetheless.

" Uh, " Inata buried a hand into the mop of reddish curls and turned her round eyes to focus on the kappa in embarrassment. " , I , um, I can't. " Her voice was quiet and apologetic and Gojyo thought he heard a slight hitch that would have indicated the beginning of tears. " M- my father is home tonight and- and I can't. " Her hand fell to her side, head ducked as her feet mimicked the kappa's uneasiness. " Are you mad at me?" The words seemed to choke on the tiny cloud of condensation.

" Kami-sama, how can you be nineteen?" Gojyo snickered without malice. He grabbed the girl into a bear hug which caused them both to sway slightly. Gojyo regained his balance by setting Inata's feet onto the ground and leaning on her until the world slowed in its spinning. Once his bearings straightened out, he gave the girl a peck on the cheek and patted her head. " Go home, 'Nata-chan, and get under the warm covers like a good little girl. "

Inata clung to his neck a few heartbeats longer, lips pressing a solid kiss just beneath his ear. " Tell Hakkai-sensei I asked about him. And I promise... next time. Okay?" She broke her hold and started down the street by way of skipping. " Thanks Oniisan!"

" I told you not to call me that! It's creepy! " Gojyo half yelled at the retreating figure. She blew a kiss over her shoulder and disappeared around a corner. The kappa didn't worry about her getting home, the girl's family owned the dry goods store less than a block away and he knew Inata's younger brothers would still be out and about and have full view of the road leading to the shop. Thank the gods they're not like her father or I would be one dead stud muffin. As long as she makes it home, they let me slide by.

A gust of icy wind reminded him that it was still winter and he was still standing in the middle of the street. Craning his head back, Gojyo took a few seconds to admire the view above, pure velvet hung with diamonds; the perfect winter's night sky. The sight cleared the majority of stray thoughts from the kappa's mind, even lessening the ache in his groin, albeit temporarily. He chose the brightest star, closed his eyes, focused all his energy and... Can't think of anything to wish for right now. Well, sex, but that's a given. Unbothered by the missed opportunity, Gojyo brought his chin back to a more comfortable position, fingered the exceptionally fuzzy scarf about his neck and pivoted on heel towards home lighting a cigarette on his way.

Despite being a little unsteady on his feet, the red head reached his domicile without incident. Gojyo grinned when he saw the sliver of light running up the side of the window. 'Kai's still up ! Yay! He cracked the door and peeked in, exaggerated care making his actions clumsy and most decidedly not careful. As he swung the door fully open, Gojyo was caught in the grips of an unexplained giggle fit. Emerald eyes looked up from their book just as the red head tripped over the threshold and made his entrance in several stumbling hops, the door shutting behind him of its own accord.

" Less than graceful tonight, ne?" Hakkai smiled benevolently.

More giggles bubbled up through the kappa's throat, cutting off any intelligent response he may have had. Suddenly Gojyo felt much drunker than he knew he actually was and he stopped to ponder the change. Uh, I think I reached this point about two hours ago, but I either pissed or sweated most of the liquor out. So, like shouldn't I be... What was the question? The kappa forced himself to focus on the room. The overhead was off, the bedside lamp turned on, as was the light over the sink that was sparklingly clean. Gojyo detected the lingering scent of beef hot pot. Crimson orbs roved aimlessly, taking in the swept floor and made up bed and folded towels outside the bathroom door.

" Not very talkative either."

Gojyo's attention was finally drawn back to the home's other occupant. His roommate was sitting comfortably in a kitchen chair, small box resting open on the table. A stack of papers was close at hand, the top most profusely bleeding red ink across incorrect answers, almost as though the perpetrators had been stabbed for each mathematical infraction. Gojyo wondered briefly if the youkai would let him sit in on a few lessons. The kappa had not been privy to any formal education, between his mixed heritage and his stepmother's behavior Gojyo had not attended school as a child. Since meeting Hakkai, the red head had often thought of trying to expand his limited knowledge, or simply better his reading skills which were mediocre at best. Remember to ask him later, okay? Gojyo made a drunken mental note and quickly forgot what he had been previously thinking, instead jumping back to his original line of thought.

" I'm sorry, but I didn't expect you home so early. I've already put dinner into the fridge. " Curious green eyes narrowed in confusion at him. " I can heat some up if you'd like."

Oh yeah, I guess I don't really feel drunker, drunker, more drunk? Is drunker a word? No, I just feel more relaxed 'cuz I'm home and Sweetness doesn't care if I act like a giggly moron. Gojyo released a great sigh from his goofy grin and ambled towards the table. And 'cuz I know he'll help me get off before I go to bed!

Hakkai had pulled his chair out as though to stand and assist the light headed water sprite, but he remained seated, body angled towards his roommate. Gojyo walked up to the brunette and promptly folded his legs to drop him to the floor. Another fit of giggling overtook him at Hakkai's shocked expression. Letting the backs of his wrists drag on the wooden planks, Gojyo propped his head into the khaki clad lap and stared up piteously through his disheveled hair at the older man.

" 'Kaaaaiiiiii, I'm hoooooornyyyyyy." The whine was high pitched, drawn out and accompanied by a trembling lower lip. Even drunk Goyjo knew how to work the man.

The full youkai nearly spit with the burst of laughter that came from hearing the kappa's plea. Hakkai rocked in the rickety chair, eyes closed as he tried to muffle the guffaws with a hand. The other hand was placed on top of the wine colored head where it proceeded to pet the man like a large housecat. Gojyo watched with his stupid grin and waited for Hakkai to regain his speech. After a long moment of uninhibited amusement the brunette looked down at his lapful of kappa. " Gojyo, you can't be serious. You reek of sex and at least four different perfumes." He sniffed again. " And one men's cologne."

" Awwww- wait a minute. Five?" Gojyo took a pause to comprehend that bit of information. Slowly he began to count off his night's exploits. " There was Leiko and that blonde guy, I didn't get his name, and then- Oh there was a trannie in the men's room that was spraying enough perfume to kill a hippo, that's probably one. "

" Well, that explains three of them."

" And then... uh, there was Inata but we didn't get to finish 'cuz Sena threw everyone out. " Gojyo's pout was slowly melting beneath the lulling strokes through his hair. He was still rock hard however, a fact that caused his curiosity to stir. Funny, I feel so loose, but my cock's so tight I can feel the pants zipper digging in. Owie. The kappa adjusted himself.

" That's four. " Hakkai twitched his nose and ruffled the strands in his grip. " Actually the heaviest scent is Sena-san's. You didn't happen to have another wrestling match tonight, ne?"

Gojyo frowned. He didn't have too many solid memories of that night several months ago, not any good ones at least. All he knew was that at the end of the evening he had found himself pinned to the ground by the petite barmaid while dressed in a way too tight cheongsam, his hair twisted into braids and a squirrel nipping at his ankle. No one would tell him what happened. He suspected Hakkai knew because the man had a tendency to bring it up every so often, but Gojyo had yet to get an admission.

Now he just stuck his tongue out and continued to work through the problem of his extra scents, cheek absently rubbing against the dark blue yarn- " Oh yeah, Sena gave me her scarf 'cuz I forgot mine and Leiko ripped my coat. "

" She ripped your coat? " Hakkai asked incredulously, his hands immediately searching out the tear. His fingers lifted the borrowed length of wool and probed the edges of frayed cloth. " Oh, my. It's quite big. "

" That's what she said." Gojyo leered.

The youkai simply shook his head and examined the coat. " Well, despite the fact that your collar is only hanging on by a thread , and I do not want any details on how this occurred, she did do me the favor of ripping it along the seam." The scarf was coiled neatly and placed on the table, the wounded coat was gently pulled from lax arms and folded next to the scarf. " It won't be difficult to mend. I'll have it done before you wake in the morning. Or afternoon, as is often the case. "

The red head readjusted his position as soon as he was freed from the bulky coat, both arms looping around the other man's slim waist, face pressing into the youkai's side. Gojyo knew his hot breath was tickling the brunette's skin through his shirt. The knowledge made him giddy once more. " Hehehehe... Sweetness, I'm still hooooorrrrnnnyyyyy..."

" I thought we'd settled this already."

" No, you just avoided the topic. " Gojyo snuggled further into the fabric, inhaling Hakkai's own comforting scent. " Pweeeaaassse, Hakkai. My balls're gonna be bluer than berries if you don't help me!"

Another splutter of laughter from the brunette shook his entire body. " Now how can I ignore such an urgent plea?" Hakkai smiled his gentle smile with an undercurrent of mischief and slipped his hands under the kappa's jaw, tilting his face upwards. " Let's get to bed, then. My back will appreciate being on a mattress."

Gojyo cringed. " Guess the creek bank last week wasn't such a good idea, huh?"

" It was a little uncomfortable, " The youkai conceded, helping Gojyo to his unsteady feet. " , but definitely worth it. As always."

" Well, I promise to make up for all the less than pleasant times." The redhead managed to stay upright without leaning on anything, his hands stripping his shirt off followed by his boots. His pants took a minute longer. Gojyo cursed the two buttons at the top of the zipper, but he finally got the snug denim pooled around his ankles. Then he tripped on them in his haste to strip the other man.

Hakkai caught him under the arms and helped to steady the kappa while he laughed. " Maybe we should wait until you're a little more coordinated."

" No way!" Gojyo yelped as sneaky fingers pinched his bare bottom. He retaliated by nipping an earlobe, his own fingers assisting the brunette in divesting his shirt and pants. " Just means we need to get into bed quicker."

Hakkai smiled and turned to the bed, leading the red head by an arm. Drunken playfulness struck Gojyo who wrapped both arms around the slender waist from behind, pulling the brunette's body flush. The familiar flash of energy buzzed beneath the pale skin, but Gojyo was prepared for it. He tightened his hold and nuzzled the soft hairs at the back of Hakkai's neck. " We haven't done it this way, yet. Let's give it a try."

The youkai froze for a split second before his heel came down on Gojyo's toes. The water sprite yelped again, hopping onto his unhindered foot, bending forward onto the other man as his hold loosened. Hakkai twisted like a snake in his arms, turning in the loose embrace to put their faces mere inches apart. " Oh, Gojyo! I'm sorry, are you OK?"

Gojyo blinked back the tears and gave a half hearted growl. " Damn, 'Kai! You coulda broken my foot! " It wasn't too bad, just a shock , really. He staggered a bit until they both regained their balance and Gojyo attacked the slender neck. " Now, how about we try that again? Me pressed against that luscious ass-"

" But I like to see your face. " Hakkai interrupted, his lips trailing above the kappa's ear. He pulled back as if to lend credit to his statement. " The cute way your eyes scrunch up just before you come, and the way you bite your bottom lip when you're trying to hit the sweet spot-"

" The way you bite your bottom lip when I hit your sweet spot. " Gojyo countered. He knew, in the back of his mind, that the brunette had once again escaped. I don't know what he escaped, but it happened. The kappa let it go, happy with the way Hakkai was running his hands over his backside. " Keep doing that and I'm not gonna have anything to hit that spot with. C'mere."

Gojyo spun them both around the small room in a loose interpretation of a tango until they reached the bed where he dropped to the mattress. The sheets felt like heaven after the hard crates and lumpy grain bags in the tavern's back room. Gojyo rolled on top of the slighter man, positioning his hips between Hakkai's thighs, erection brushing against the youkai's swelling flesh. Slim neck stretched to reach kissing distance and their lips met with a slow, yet insistent, melding. Gojyo's tongue performed a thorough search of the interior of the man's mouth, finding something unexpected. " You taste like candy."

" One of my students brought some mochi today. " The brunette replied breathlessly as his cock was rubbed to fullness. The blush riding high on his sculpted cheekbones deepened with embarrassment. " I hate to admit it, but I hardly even touched the stew. I ate about half a box of the mochi for dinner , instead."

" Sweetness always tastes sweet." The kappa mumbled nonsensically, his partner's hands roaming over sensitive areas. His nipples were tweaked and he plundered the willing mouth in response, looking for more of the sugary goodness. " Did you leave any for me?"

Hakkai arched upwards to gain more contact. " Uh, stew or mochi?"

" Mochi." Maybe I'm not as horny as I thought if I'm worrying about getting my candy fix. Gojyo swiveled his hips to give the requested pressure.

" Aaahhh, o-okaydothatagain. " The brunette gasped, his words running together into a burst of air.

Gojyo grinningly complied. Hips thrusting firmly, he continued to suckle the other man's tongue as he reached towards the nightstand drawer. Fumbling once inside, the kappa eventually freed the small tube of clear gel; he only banged his knuckles on the top of the drawer twice in the process. A quick glance confirmed that the tube was nearly full and Gojyo made an effort to remember how many bottles and tubes were left in his personal inventory. I might have to make a trip to the corner store soon. I think there's just the really flowery smelling stuff left. Not my favorite.

" Gojyo..."

Fluttering breaths across his cheek brought the kappa's attention back to the whipcord length of man beneath him. Gojyo watched his partner through lazy lidded eyes, never ceasing to be amazed at the reactions he coaxed from the brunette. He was so entranced by Hakkai's facial expressions and raspy vocalizations he barely noticed when two slender hands wrapped around his aching shaft. A startled squeak was swallowed by the youkai's greedy kiss, the lube was dropped onto the mattress near the pillow.

Gojyo readily gave himself over to the sensations, more than happy to have Hakkai ' drive' , as it were. He kept his mouth busy making a series of small hickeys along both sides of the pale neck and nipping the pulse just beneath. The youkai's hands stroked him slowly, with a firm grip, dragging low groans from the red head's throat. " Oh shit, 'Kai. Feels so good..." Gojyo grunted as his partner's cock joined the pull and twist rhythm. Now he could feel the tug of heated satin, the trickle of pre cum and sweat that wasn't his own.

It was nice. Even though Gojyo had been fully worked up beforehand, the slow and steady progress they were making was extremely pleasant; better than the quick down and dirty screws he had had at the bar earlier. Being with 'Kai is always so- " Holy fuck! "

" I take it you enjoy this ? " Hakkai smirked through heavy bangs. His fingers had found their way over the silky sac to the narrow bridge of skin just behind, rubbing gentle circles as his other hand continued its stroking.

Gojyo managed to regain his ability to speak coherently. " Fuck yeah, Sweetness." He fisted the pillow next to the chocolate strands, cotton cover spilling between his fingers. Arching forward, tongue caught between his teeth, Gojyo was swept away by the pure physicality of his body's manipulations.

" Uh, 'Kai. " Choking breath fought with the words. Gojyo brought a shaky hand to the pair playing with his naughty bits and stilled their movements. Way too close and I haven't taken care of Sweetness. And that box of candy has given me a glorious idea. " Give me a minute." With that, the kappa rolled off the bed and made a bee line for the small cardboard box sitting atop the table. Once it was in his possession Gojyo slithered back onto the bed, placing his cargo on the window sill.

The mochi was different from the large wads of individually wrapped goo they normally bought at the street stalls. This was cut into exact squares, each one coated in a thick dusting of powdered sugar and sprinkled with sesame seeds. Gojyo recognized it instantly. " Enyoji Kenji brought this, didn't he? "

" How did you guess?" Hakkai smiled, a genuine-oh-so-happy-to-be-alive smile that was still a rare occurrence. It was usually reserved for when one of the youkai's students managed to solve a difficult equation or when the kappa emptied the ashtray without being reminded.

" Inata gave me some last week. She said her grandmother finally gave up her secret recipe and Enyoji- ojisan's been crankin' 'em out non stop. " Gojyo sniggered, plucking a square confection from its nest of powder. He popped the sweet into his mouth, holding it captive between his front teeth. With a particularly mischievous eye brow wiggle aimed at his bedmate , Gojyo leaned over the brunette and kissed the parted lips.

A tongue reached out to snatch the mochi, followed by teeth and a mild to vacuum cleaner strength suction. The kappa laughed and refused to give up his prize until only the gummy center remained, then he allowed Hakkai to roll the lump into his mouth.

" Mmmmm... very good. " Hakkai mumbled after swallowing.

Gojyo didn't answer, but retrieved another piece of mochi and repeated the process, savoring the combined tastes of sugar and youkai. This time, when all the powdered sugar was effectively removed and all that was left was a slightly rounded cube of candy Gojyo slowly pulled back. Before Hakkai could reprimand him for leaving his luscious mouth, Gojyo could see the disapproval bubbling in the green eyes, his lips latched onto the lower tip of the huge scar.

One would have thought that the kappa had set a hot iron to the man's flesh, his reaction was so violent. Hakkai screamed without words, his body curling upwards, two hands grasping the blood red hair. Gojyo merely smirked and continued to lightly nibble along the line of puckered skin as Hakkai unfolded back onto the bed, though his body remained tense.

Ridge, ridge, valley. Gojyo's tongue swept over every tiny crease and dipped in between as well, leaving sweetly scented trails. When the kappa reached the very center of the ancient wound, where the man's innards had once threatened to erupt through the layers of sliced skin and muscle, he applied slightly more pressure with his tongue. Hakkai responded accordingly, muttering a curse and tightening his grip on Gojyo's tresses. The candy was ground mercilessly into the scar until it melted into nothing. Another piece was taken from the box and applied in the same manner to the upper half of the scar.

Ruby eyes glimmered , Gojyo lifting his head and returning to his beginning point just above the right hipbone.
" Doin' okay, Sweetness?"

" Y-you are truly w-wicked." Hakkai stammered out between great gulps of air. Pale fingers continued to clench and unclench in the kappa's hair.

Instead of replying, Gojyo began to lick the man clean. The tip of his tongue retraced its previous path, removing the sticky residue from Hakkai's skin, tickling the rough scar tissue. Occasionally, he would touch upon a particularly sensitive spot and the brunette would repeat his earlier performance, body curling around the red silk and tan features, scream ripped from deep within his chest. Gojyo moved torturously slow, spending countless minutes on the brief expanse of belly.

When he finished, his partner seemed to be on the verge of hyperventilating. The green eyes were scrunched shut, mouth open, harsh breaths sucked between bared teeth, his entire body drawn tight. So beautiful. Goyjo took several moments to simply admire the view while Hakkai caught his breath and allowed his muscles to lose some of their rigidity. When his hands finally fell from their hold on Gojyo's scalp, the kappa sat back on his heels to give the other man some more room to breathe. " Still with me?" Gojyo grinned and grabbed yet another piece of mochi from the box.

" Wicked. Truly." Hakkai reiterated between inhales.

" I do my best. " Gojyo moved a little further down the bed, getting comfortable on his elbows and putting the candy in his mouth. Long tan arms snaked under the youkai's thighs, one hand circling around to splay its fingers across the soft inner thigh, the other hand wrapped around the base of Hakkai's cock. He heard the green eyed demon gasp as he realized the kappa's intentions and Gojyo smiled around the treat.

His lips barely touched the heated flesh, Hakkai's member jumping at the contact. Gojyo pressed more firmly in an open mouth kiss and slid from root to head, leaving a sugary trail.

" Gggggooooojjjjjyyyyoooooooo...." The youkai gasped and moaned, the intensity of earlier easing into a heated pool of lust.

Three more pieces melted away in a similar fashion and the box was left empty on the window sill.

Tip of tongue slowly rubbed the last bit of mochi around the flanged head, gliding over the ridge and tickling the weeping slit. The kappa finished with a small kiss to the prominent erection and stretched out to reclaim the lubricant that had rolled beneath the pillow. As he moved his head he caught a whiff of the most intriguing scent and one of his favorite songs popped unbidden into his thoughts. He laughed as he sang. " I smell sex and can -day here... Who's that lounging in my chay- irrr..."

" You're impossible." Hakkai sighed.

" Who's that castin' devious stares in my direction... Mama this surely is a dream... Yeah... This must be my dream..." The clear gel was spilled onto his first two fingers and Gojyo wiggled back into position, already pressing one slicked digit against Hakkai's entrance. " A damn good dream at that." His mouth engulfed the stiff member and began the task of removing the stickiness.

One finger pushed its way into the hot passage, Hakkai moaning his approval. The kappa moved his finger in time with his tongue; in, out, up, down. He's actually loosening up pretty quickly. It still amazes me how fast his body responds, though he's still too damn tight. Gojyo worked a second digit beside the first, carefully stretching the delicate ring. It slid in smoothly, as well.

Hakkai arched his back, bowing off the mattress, helpless cry dying in his throat. " More, Gojyo, more..." The youkai ground his hips up, erection pushed further down Gojyo's throat, only to come down just as strong, driving the kappa's fingers deeper within his body. " ... enough stretching. Want you now."

Gojyo released the newly cleaned sugar free cock from his mouth with a wet pop. " Just a few more minutes, Sweetness." He cooed.

" Gojyo, it's fine. We can-"

" No."

Hakkai stiffened and Gojyo knew it had nothing to do with pleasure. I really didn't mean for that to come out so harsh. The kappa felt the anger that had flared up at his partner's suggestion slowly fade into stubborn self resentment, bad memories momentarily blocking out the seductive scene before him...

“ Sweetness?” Gojyo was being silly; he liked getting the youkai to smile. He honestly did not expect Hakkai to grin in response and nod his head.

“ I can handle that.” The brunette snickered and ducked into the bathroom, closing the door on a wide eyed kappa.

Well...shit. Gojyo stared at the dingy painted door for another minute, then started tugging the bedclothes from the mattress, singing softly. " ... pour some sugar on m-" His attention was drawn to several dark stains on the otherwise white sheets. Gojyo moved closer to inspect the three spots and two smeared streaks and silently cursed himself to all levels of hell. He ripped the soiled sheet from the bed and approached the closed bathroom door, knocking smartly on the wood. " 'Kai, you're bleeding. Are you okay?"...

Pale fingers on his face shook Gojyo from his unpleasant thoughts. He had stopped moving his fingers, but had left them inside the tight orifice; the muscles squeezing and drawing on the slick digits. Tilting his head, Gojyo rested a scarred cheek on the inside of the other man's thigh, crimson eyes gazing over the stretched out form. Forest green gazed back. " Gomen." Lips brushed the supple skin at the joining of leg and body. " Gomen, but I hurt you once and I won't do it again."

Fingertips fluttered across his face, lightly touching his unmarred cheek and ghosting over his lips. " Gojyo, we've discussed this several times and we agreed that we both hold some blame for that first time. " Hakkai spoke in his most soothing voice, the one he used on frightened animals and lost children. " I still claim the majority of the responsibility, it is my body and I should not have been so aggressive during our encounter. " His fingers pressed firmly against the kappa's lips, forbidding interruption. " True, you weren't gentle either, but your aggressiveness was simply the reciprocation of my own. Besides, a little bleeding is always a possibility. "

" It shouldn't have been." Gojyo moved his face away from the censoring hand on his mouth, intent on being heard. " I could have-"

" I forced myself on you that night, Gojyo." Hakkai's tone became stern, though he remained quiet in volume.
" And I enjoyed our experience. I am not a porcelain doll that will shatter with rough handling. I have sustained much more life threatening and painful injuries than the ones incurred during sex and I will not have you feeling guilty every time I wish to treated as an equal partner in bed."

I was careless with him. I should have done better. I could have- Gojyo's mind ranted silently as he became more and more uncomfortable with their position. This needs to stop for tonight. He was almost certain that Hakkai had reached the same conclusion, the youkai's leg slumping down onto the bed just as Gojyo began to remove his fingers from their snug sheath.

" Gojyo, " Hakkai began, voice softened considerably, emerald eyes luminous. " let it go for now, " The edge of his foot slid across the kappa's prominent erection, toes petting the silky shaft. " and let's get back to the matter at hand." The head of Gojyo's cock was now being rubbed and pressed against the inside of the youkai's ankle. " Please."

Gojyo twitched as Hakkai's big toe wiggled into the soft skin of his scrotum. This is so hot it's scary! He took a moment to gather his arousal and reject the negative feelings, closing crimson eyes and kissing swollen flesh. But he hadn't given up. " Let me finish the stretching."

The brunette nodded and ruffled red colored strands before relaxing back into the bedclothes. He drew his leg back into its original position.

" Arigatou." Gojyo muttered into the sweaty skin. He retrieved the lubricant and squirted more than a generous amount directly onto the filled opening, adding more to a third finger. Pushing in and out, building up a rhythm that slowly brought their lust back to its previous peak. Gojyo oh-so-carefully slipped the last finger alongside the others, fully stretching the ring of muscle. He curved two fingers, gently massaging the youkai's sweet spot, its location well memorized.

" Oh-ahhhh..." Hakkai sighed and twisted his hands into the bed sheets. His hips began to move with Gojyo's fingers, lifting from the mattress.

Gojyo continued his ministrations for several more minutes, spreading his fingers and stretching his partner's entrance with the utmost care. Finally satisfied, the red head withdrew the digits and wiped his hand clean on a discarded pairof boxers. Hakkai was still panting lightly as Gojyo sat up between his spread thighs and emptied the last of the tube into an open palm. The gel was slathered onto Gojyo's aching erection. " Shit..." The kappa swore at the combined sensations of cool gel and his warm hand stroking along his own length. This is going to be soooooooooooooo good. Long pale legs encircled Gojyo's waist, hugging his sides. The head of his cock found the prepared opening and gently nudged inside. Always so fucking tight. Tanned hands folded over the youkai's hips, holding Hakkai immobile; another of Gojyo's precautions, keeping the pale man from lunging forward and taking him in too soon.

The kappa eased his way forward, feeling the muscles gradually give way to his intrusion. " Sweetness...so hot...so good." He murmured as he seated himself fully inside the other man's body over the span of several long minutes. Once he could sink no further, Gojyo slid his hands up and over Hakkai's sides until they slipped beneath his shoulders, fingers curling around to the front. The position allowed him better leverage and closer contact. Gojyo pressed his body against Hakkai's, chest to chest, belly to cock, stretching his neck the last bit to make it mouth to mouth.

" Any objections to my prep routine now?" Gojyo tugged on the youkai's lower lip.

" That's not fair." Hakkai mumbled in response, tongue reaching out for the red head's mouth. " Talk about it later."

Gojyo met the questing tongue with his own and sealed their lips together. He resisted the urge to thrust into the tight heat surrounding him, instead losing himself in the molten kisses and burning touches, in Hakkai's abandoned sighs. The kappa broke away to breathe properly and nuzzled into the brunette's neck and shoulder. " Sweetness, okay?"

" H-hai." Hakkai lifted his head to nibble on Gojyo's ear lobe, fingers winding their way into scarlet hair. " I'm fine, Gojyo. Want to move, now."

The kappa began slowly, ever mindful of the damage he could cause. Moving in bare inches, slipping in and out of the man's hot center, Gojyo made sure to hit his partner's prostrate on each and every stroke. Hakkai gave another strangled cry and tightened his grip. The red head smiled and deliberately missed the sweet spot on the next dozen strokes, then brushed against it in the following set.

His little game went on for some time before the youkai protested. " Ahh-stop teasing!"

" Time to get to it?" Gojyo breathed into the flushed ear. With express permission granted, the kappa pushed his knees apart, spreading Hakkai's thighs even further and bringing their bodies closer together. Base now widened for better stability, Gojyo renewed his hold on the youkai's shoulders and engaged in a deep kiss.
" You are so fucking gorgeous."

He barely caught the surprise that registered on Hakkai's face before pulling out until only the head of his cock remained within the tight ring, then thrusting forward with a powerful stroke. Gojyo was rewarded by a throaty groan and angular hips bucking to meet his own. The kappa kept up a steady rhythm of strong thrusts, pounding into the softly pliant body beneath him. Unyielding scar tissue scrubbed against Gojyo's belly, a stark contrast to the rest of the youkai's silken skin. In return, the red head pressed his marked cheek to the side of the brunette's flawless face. " Ahh- Sw-sweetness!" Gojyo felt dexterous fingers pinching one of his nipples, tweaking the sensitive nub of flesh.

Faster, deeper, harder; Gojyo responded to his partner's body. Hakkai kept a continuous stream of moans and gasps flowing past his lips, punctuated by the occasional scream of " Gojyo!". The kappa just smiled in his wicked way and relentlessly drilled into the gripping heat.

It wasn't long before Hakkai's mouth latched onto Gojyo's lips, sucking the very breath from the kappa. Gojyo increased his pace, making sure to keep the youkai's erection trapped between their bellies and pressing into it without mercy. Pale arms were like steel bands crossing over his back, fingernails biting into the golden skin. He's ready, he's ready, oh kami-sama cum for me, 'Kai!!!

As if the brunette had heard the mental pleading, Hakkai broke from the kiss to scream wordlessly, wet warmth spreading between their joined bodies. Gojyo barely heard it, his own body reaching its final peak for the evening, pumping his essence into the slighter man.

The blurry gray of orgasm eventually coalesced into colors and shapes of the more solid variety. Specifically, a pair of hazy emerald eyes framed by sweaty strands of dark silk. Gojyo realized that his forehead was resting atop of Hakkai's, their eyes level, noses touching. Their breath mingled and washed over their faces in warm wet puffs, lightly stirring sweat soaked locks. Post coital bliss, as usual. ... I smell sex and can-day...

Gojyo felt lips brushing against his cheek, then everything faded...

--------------------------------------------------------- ------------------------------

... the smell of frying bacon was almost enough to get Gojyo out of bed. Almost. Sleep is precious. Sleep is valuable. Sleep is... oh shit, I think I fell asleep on Hakkai. That thought reinforced the kappa's desire to burrow deeper into the mass of blankets and sheets and pillows in order to avoid the impending embarrassment. I haven't passed out that fast since I was fourteen years old! Gyah!!! Kami only knows what 'Kai thought. Damnit. He dragged the covers over his head, hoping that his roommate hadn't noticed his state of awareness.

" Ohayou!"

Why the hell did I think I could get away with it? " Ohayou." The kappa mumbled from beneath the covers. Somewhere in the back of his mind, Gojyo noticed that he didn't feel sticky; Hakkai had obviously cleaned them both up the night before. Some more guilt to go with breakfast.

There was light laughter and the blankets were pulled away from Gojyo's face. " Are you feeling alright?"

Gojyo kept his eyes closed tight against the mid morning sun streaming through the cracked window blinds and reached out blindly to find the hand resting near his face. He clutched the cool fingers, slightly damp from what smelled like lemon soap and water. " 'M'fine." He inhaled the clean scent of Hakkai's hands and the heavy fragrance of a large breakfast. Or maybe brunch. " Sorry, I fell asleep." Gojyo forced his eyes to crack open. He found Hakkai's bright smile beaming down at him.

" Considering all your previous encounters last night, I'm surprised you lasted as long as you did." The youkai laughed again and replaced the blanket shield that Gojyo had erected against the sun.

" Was that an insult to my stamina, Sweetness?" Gojyo pulled the covers back down. He watched the brunette cross the room to mess with the items cooking on the stove, well rounded ass moving under the snug denim.

" Of course, not." The reply was tossed casually over his left shoulder.

Gojyo wiggled into an upright position, only then noticing his coat hung on the back of a chair, collar mended. His borrowed scarf was nowhere to be seen. Then his gaze fell upon the stack of books and papers laying on the kitchen table. Along with several bottles of lubricant and an entire box's worth of condoms sitting nearby. And bananas. " Uh... did you have some sort of...plans for today?" Gojyo eyed the large bottle containing a fourth of its contents; his favorite brand of lube. " Involving Glide-Rite?"

" Oh, Kino-san stopped by this morning." Hakkai turned from the stove, tipping eggs from a skillet onto a plate.

Kino- Oh she was helping Sena with Suoh-san's wife! I almost forgot! " Did everything go alright? "

" Oh, hai." The smile on Hakkai's face nearly made Gojyo blush with its sincerity. " Kino-san came to fetch me around eight, she grabbed her scarf on the way out. Suoh-dono's child was breech, but Sena-san was able to deliver the baby. She simply needed me to heal some mild internal bleeding. But everything turned out fine. "

" That's good to hear." Gojyo grinned back in genuine happiness. " So, should I be buying sling shots or hair ribbons?"

" Oh, silly me. It's a boy." Hakkai placed bacon onto the plate and poured juice into a short glass. " And neither of those gifts are appropriate for an infant, no matter the sex. "

" Speaking of sex, " The kappa's grin turned evil. " why do you have the accessories for a very good time sitting next to your precious school books?"

A very full plate was set onto the table with the juice and a mug of coffee. " Do you mind if I take some of these? " Hakkai gestured towards the lube and lollies. " Apparently Goku has been pestering Sanzo, for some months now, about sexual intercourse. While I covered all the basics of anatomy in our lessons , I did neglect the more intimate details. " A blush exploded across the pale man's face, as though he hadn't had confectionary sugar drooled over half his body the evening before. " Sanzo is unable to satisfy the young man's curiosity, or rather I'm fairly certain he is unwilling to give proper explanations, so he has asked that I give Goku THE TALK."

" Any particular reason he's chosen now to educate the monkey? "

" Sanzo simply said that Goku has been asking a lot of questions since late fall and he has no inclination to discuss the subject with Goku."

" I could talk to hi-"

" Sanzo directly forbade me to bring you along."

Gojyo snickered at that, then fell silent as a serious thought struck him. " Do you think they know about us sleeping together? "

" ..."

"..."

Hakkai broke the fearful silence first. " Surely not. "

Gojyo added his own affirmations. " You're right."

" I don't see how they could."

" There's no way they know."

" Yeah."

" Yeah."

TBC...

- Nomalaz: You're so wonderful! Thank you :) I actually didn't plan on writing their specific reactions but you put the idea in my head. So, this is just for you ( and everyone else who is reading this, but mainly for you) since I left the monk and monkey at a delicate juncture...

" Sanzo, why are Hakkai and Gojyo having sex with each other?"

// Anytime... anyway... You're my Playground Love...//

Those two are fucking each other?!

Sanzo wondered if his head could actually explode. It felt as though it might, the incredible pressure behind his eyes, blurred vision, shortness of breath.

Gojyo and Hakkai are-

He didn't turn around, knowing his young charge would still be in that provocative sprawl and he simply could not handle the tantalizing view on top of this disturbing bit of information.

How the hell did Goku find out before me?!

Sanzo pulled a cigarette from the pack, agitation evident in every motion. It was placed between his lips and remained unlit.

Hakkai and Gojyo are-

The thin white stick bounced up and down in Sanzo's mouth, his hands fisted inside the sleeves of his robe.

And not " Why are Hakkai and Gojyo having sex?".

He could hear the teenager shifting behind him, most likely alerted by the monk's continued silence. Sanzo imagined the large golden eyes staring at him curiously.

No, it's " Why are Hakkai and Gojyo having sex WITH EACH OTHER?".

The cigarette fell to the ground, Sanzo having bitten clean through the filter. He spit the fibrous butt over the railing and forced his legs to make for the stairs.

How am I supposed to answer that?

" Sanzo?" The small voice barely carried on the chill wind.

The blonde head disappeared down the steps without responding.
