Mid-summer and things were warm as usual. Dororo sat together on a large beach towel with his other four platoon companions: Keroro, Tamama, Giroro, and Kururu. They were all eating ice cream as they got to watch Natsumi, Koyuki, Fuyuki, and Momoka play a round of volley ball, Paul preferring as Aki sat in a lay-back chair a few meters from them.

Keroro and Tamama had vanilla ice cream; Tamama's having a bevy of chocolate sprinkles on it. Giroro enjoyed his strawberry cone and Kururu had a chocolate one with caramel on it. Dororo looked down at it. It was mint with small chunks of chocolate in it and had several multi-colored, circular sprinkles on it. It looks tasty.

So, deciding he should indulge in the treat, Dororo was about to lift his mask down before the volleyball swerved out of direction and smacked him in the face, smearing the ice cream all over his blue skin as Koyuki yelped, running over to him as Natsumi, Fuyuki, and Momoka following.

"Hey, Dororo! Dororo!" Koyuki asked him, shaking his small body that had the ice cream on it as the others watched, Momoka trying to apologize as much as possible. "You okay?"

"Y-yes, de gozaru" Dororo answered shakily, a little disappointed he couldn't eat the treat on him. Koyuki sighed in relief before smiling that charming smile of hers and picked him up from under his arms.

"Lets get you cleaned" she suggested before walking off to the restrooms with him. Though a bit abashed at how Koyuki usually treated him like he still needed to be looked out after like a toddler, Dororo was sure he enjoyed the immense affection Koyuki showered him in. So, letting her wipe off most of the ice cream, Dororo began studying his female companion again.

Emerald green eyes that shone and were always friendly; Her evergreen hair all tied up into a lovely pony-tail. As well as her fair skin always being soft and without any imperfections. Finally, Dororo settled on her lips. They were a gorgeous pinkish color and puckered sweetly as the teen in front of him settled on her task to lightly wipe away the cold and sticky substance. Blushing slightly at how pretty he found his team mate, Dororo hastily diverted his attention to looking up at the ceiling.

"Uwah" Koyuki grumbled slightly. "There's too much on you and not enough towels..."

"That's okay, Lady Koyuki, I could go and take a bath later an-" Dororo's face heated up further as Koyuki's tongue glided over his blue skin, licking off the ice cream. Staying very still, Dororo's mind raced and his body tensed up. But it relaxed a bit as Koyuki was allowed to go on with her work. She was helping him after all, right?

Once the treat off, Koyuki smiled down at Dororo.

"There we go! Now, how about we go play in the water with the others?" The teal-eyed girl suggested. Dororo looked up at her and nodded, a smile behind his mask.

"That sounds most excellent Lady Koyuki!"
