Jakotsu slowly surfaced from his dream. Cracking his eyes open, he rolled over onto his side. In the early morning half-light he could just make out Bankotsu's face. The cross-dresser thought his lover looked far younger than his fifteen years, despite the pimple on the end of his nose and the faint bit of stubble on his chin. Jakotsu sighed softly. His beloved was fast becoming a man and a great one at that.
As he lay there, the cross-dresser thought back to the beginnings of their relationship. The younger boy had seemed so fresh and innocent to him. At eighteen, Jakotsu often felt old and jaded beyond his years even though Bankotsu encouraged his rather childish behavior. He also harbored a secret fear that the fifteen year old would die before him, leaving the cross-dresser to languish in his grief and loneliness. Unable to control himself, Jakotsu reached out, gently brushing his fingertips against his young lover's cheek, inadvertently waking him.
Bankotsu opened his eyes and stared bleary-eye at his paramour. "Sweetness…?"
"Morning…"
"Whatchya want…?"
"Nookie?" Jakotsu said impishly, wanting to forget his earlier fears.
"You'll wake everyone up."
Snuggling together, they laughed softly.
"Later?"
"Yeah… Now sleep."
"Okay…"
