This story takes place before Octoling Integration. I recommend reading this last, but you can read the installments in any order, it's really up to you. I hope you enjoy!
Sex Scene Ahead
The pale octoling boy leads the eager inkling girl into his apartment. Dressed in tight, black pants and a black crop top, his figure is accentuated in a way meant to entice his clients. It's working on this one; She's glancing back and staring at his crotch. He closes the door and holds up his phone. The girl's blue eyes sparkle as she pulls out her phone and taps the screen. His screen lights up with a "ding," confirming payment. The boy slowly unzips the front of his crop top and the inkling steps in close, running her hands down his lean arms. "What's your name?" She purrs in his ear. He leans down and kisses the nape of her neck, "You can call me Kai, beautiful."
The inkling's long yellow tentacles are splayed out around her head and she moans loudly as Kai licks her bits. He sucks on her folds, eliciting pleasured noises from the girl. He grabs her slender thighs and buries his face between her legs. He swirls his tongue around her clit, knowing the girls love that. He's right, and the inkling gasps, grabbing his head, as if holding him there. Kai uses one hand to finger her, giving her double stimulation. Kai moves his hand faster and sucks on her clit. The girl digs her nails into his head, making him look up, but he doesn't stop as she cries out. Her body shivers and he tastes her fluids in his mouth. She tastes slightly sweet, which Kai is grateful for. Some girls tasted sour, but he'd lap it up nonetheless. He swallows her juices and sits back on his knees, winking at her. She lays, naked and blown away, looking at him like he was a miracle.
"Have I satisfied you?" Kai looks at her with an open expression. The girl sits up, leaning against the headboard, and nods. She's, evidently, speechless. Kai smiles and slides off the bed, "Then I do believe I did my job right." He picks up the top that was so haphazardly discarded and slides it on. The girl stands and picks up her own clothes, and walks up to him. She places a hand on his shoulder and looks up at him, "Would you be interested in going out with me?" Her yellow bangs cut across her forehead and swoop down past her shoulders. She's pretty, but nothing special, Kai thinks. "I'm flattered, but I have to keep it professional." He takes her hand from his shoulder and places it at her side. The girl's face falls and she somberly gets dressed. "But, if you ever need to be satisfied again, I'm always here. You're delicious." Kai gives her a half smile. The girl blushes and rushes out the door, almost tripping.
Finally alone, Kai drops onto the bed. He was used to being offered companionship. His phone pings and he picks it up from the nightstand. Another request, this one is for tomorrow. Kai clicks accept and puts the phone back down. He'd been in Inkopolis for two years now, and he'd been a popular choice as the local whore. Unlike back in his old home, squids here kept sex work on the down low. Guys and girls alike fetishized his race. His dramatic eyes and petite features made him desirable, and his adroitness in the bed kept them coming back. He'd been a sex worker back in Octo Valley, since he was matured. He'd found that constantly bringing people into the bedroom distracted him from his early memories.
Kai groans and sits up. He picks up his phone again and dials a memorized number. On the second ring it picks up and he hears a perky voice, "Kai! You ready for our banger tonight?" He leans his head in his hands, "I suppose." The line is quiet for moment and then the voice chirps, "I'm looking forward to seeing you. You've been scarce the past month." The octoling boy rubs his face, "I've been busy, lots of- " "Yeah lots of clients, I know. I'm just glad I'm seeing you tonight." He catches a glimpse of himself in the mirror and sees a speck of pale yellow on the side of his mouth. He wipes it away, "I'm looking forward to seeing you, too, Noir. See you soon." He hangs up and walks over to his closet, opening the doors and assessing his options. He picks out a black button down, grey jeans and black punks. Shedding them and looking behind himself into the mirror he assesses his reflection. On his chest, just above his heart is a hickey. He curses in his head. Kai's red eyes look back at him, guarded and deep.
His apartment is filled with octolings and squids. The lights are flashing and music bumps loudly from the speakers. Red cups are in everyone's hands, full of replicated liquor from human days. He's lounging on the couch when Noir struts up to him. "Hey, tiger. How was your client?" She speaks in a normal tone, only he can hear her over the noise. "She was the same." He looks up at her, and observes her. Noir is sleek, and dark, like a black cat. Her tentacles are in long pigtails, her bangs swooping over the left side of her face. Her round ears are pierced. Her eyes are black, and her skin is pale. She's pretty, as far as octolings go, but Kai could never see her as anything other than a friend. He'd known her for too long.
"You know, you could always stop if you don't enjoy it. You have plenty of change." She makes a face and Kai tilts his head up, saying nothing. Noir scoffs and grabs his hand, pulling him up, "Lets go get coffee." She drags him through the crowd. As they pass through the door, he grabs his face mask from the starts twinkle, complimenting the big, round moon. Noir doesn't pay attention to them, though. She's chatting his ear off. "Oh, carp! You wouldn't believe who I saw the other day!" She rambles as Kai observes the sky. Small strips of cloud float by, slowly. "You're not listening, huh." Kai looks over at her, surprised she'd noticed. "I'm sorry, I was-" She places a finger on his lips. "You're usually a much better listener, what's up?" She removes her finger and he shrugs. He puts his hands in his pockets and looks at her. For a second he sees a look in her eyes that he knows all too well, then it fades and is replaced by melancholy. "Come on, the cafe is still a few blacks away." She doesn't take his hand, but starts walking ahead of him.
The small cafe with the green roofed veranda is right outside of the square. It's usually moderately busy, but around ten pm it's quiet. They walk in and greet the barista. She smiles warmly and waves at Kai. He goes up to the counter, Noir right behind him, and leans on the counter. "Two small coffees, cream and sugar... And two croissants, please." He smiles at the barista and she giggles. Noir sighs and he turns to her. She quickly smiles and thanks him. She's acting strange, he thinks to himself. They take their goodies and Kai pulls out his phone, tipping the girl generously. They walk out and sit at the table. Noir pulls a small bottle out of her pocket and pours it into her coffee. Kai watches, amused. She puts the lid back on and takes a deep gulp. Realizing he was staring, Noir wipes her mouth and remarks, "What?" Kai shrugs and bites into his croissant. The buttery, flaky pastry is warm in his mouth. He lets out a warble of ecstasy and sees that now she's staring, blushing.
He puts down the bread and sits back in the chair, "You've been acting... strange. What's going on?" She looks down and he asks, "Did I do something wrong?" Noir takes another large swig of her spiked coffee and stands. She walks around the table and leans forward, placing her hands on his thighs. Her breath smells strongly of whisky. "Cod, how much have you had to drink?" He looks into her dark eyes, her face just inches from hers. "Not enough that I don't know what I'm doing. Just enough to make me brave." She leans forward just as her lips are about to touch hers, he grabs her arms and swiftly stands, keeping her from falling back. "No." She looks disappointed, but not surprised. "Why now?" Kai notices he's still holding her wrists and lets go. Noir looks down and then up, devilishly, "I'll pay you." Kai arches an eyebrow. "Why haven't I thought of it before? I'll pay you!" She chuckles and Kai is sure she's drunk. He wraps an arm around her shoulders and guides her away from the cafe, "Let's get you home." She boops his nose, "I'm hiring you." Kai looks up at the stars and says a silent prayer to whoever's listening, asking for strength, "Okay, Noir."
