When the duo arrived at their hollow Pedro wasted no time in diving straight into their food stash, which was considerably large thanks to the chocolate bar they had found a few days ago. Nico, however, landed softly in the entrance shaking his and laughing at his partner.

When Pedro was hungry, he was hungry but he wasn't eating like a complete animal. With his beak full of junk food he glanced up at Nico and attempted to say something. Nico smiled and sniggered when the incomprehensible language reached him.

He didn't need Pedro to say it again though since he knew he was asking if he was going to eat. He was hungry but his stomach still had the butterfly feeling from their earlier activates. Nico hopped over to the food stash and grabbed a grape nibbling on it slowly, deep in thought.

Pedro watched his lover do so and couldn't help but smile watching him peck delicately at the fruit. He never ate any differently really, except from eating competitions. Nico may be a small bird but he was more than capable eating twice his weight.

A few moments passed and the duo had stayed silent with Pedro still watching the Canary peck away at fruit to the point he had stopped eating himself. Nico flicked his eyes up to the Cardinal from the fruit in his wings and smiled softly at him bringing the other bird back into reality, blushing at being caught staring again.

He recalled what had happened when he was caught earlier, remembering how it felt to have their feathers brushing against each others, their beaks pressed passionately together, him running his wing down Nico's back and under his tail feathers coaxing his opening, then the hot wetness on his wing tips.

His face was burning up at the memory, hearing every laboured breathe, groan and moan again; his name; his name was groaned, moaned, whispered, pleaded and shouted. He remembered that, feeling Nico's beak on his neck. Pedro was brought out of his memory and in to reality when Nico cleared his throat from the current fruit he was eating.

He was suddenly aware of how warm he was and wet he felt below. Was he opening? He stood a few seconds to figure out the answer but it came as no surprise to him that he was. He had opened while he was pleasuring Nico so it was understandable his vent was opening at the memory.

Pedro quickly looked at the food in his wing seeing the chocolate. Now being birds, Pedro knew that the sugar foods weren't all that good for him so he took a leaf out of Nico's book and nabbed a slice of orange throwing a piece of chocolate at Nico. The treat didn't hit him, instead landed near his feet. Nico loved the food as much as Pedro but with the way he was feeling and the show to do that night, he wasn't too sure he could.

He gave it a quick thought before picking it up and starting on it. Pedro smiled knowing there was no way Nico would turn the chocolate down. He finished up the orange and moved on to papaya, curtsey of Rafael. Although the other bird couldn't see it, they were subconsciously watching each other and when they did see it, they would look away quickly feeling their cheeks burn and stomachs jump.

It hit them more so because they couldn't help but replay the sexually charged moment they have shared not long before. Everything had happened so fast but at the same time everything seemed to slow down around them and they let go of their worries, not caring if they got caught or if anyone was watching.

A few moments later, after finishing off most of the fruit in their den, the duo sat facing each other on the floor. Nico looked up at Pedro and laughed loudly but lightly causing Pedro to give him a confused look.

Nico had planned his next move and it had hit him how he could possibly thank his lover for the pleasure he was provided with earlier. He knew it was cliché but Pedro worked on such things; they both did; that's what made them so compatible.

'What?' Pedro asked.

'You've got fruit on your beak.' Nico laughed brushing his wing down his own beak.

Pedro blushed and reached up to wipe off the fruit but was stopped by Nico.

'Don't. I've got it.'

Pedro smiled at the cliché as Nico leaned into him. He shut his eyes to feel the Canary's beak placing a light, sucking kiss on the tip of his beak. Nico licked up the fruit remains gently, noticing Pedro had shut his eyes picking up on the cliché.

A smile danced across his beak sweetly as he pulled back slightly before planting a small kiss, fully on Pedro's beak. Pedro moved easily into the kiss, wrapping his wings around Nico's back as Nico moved his own wings behind Pedro's neck, pressing their bodies close together like earlier.

The kiss was delicate but passionate and lasted only a few seconds before they leaned back, panting lightly at the lack of breathe. They gazed into each other's eyes listening to themselves breathe in time with the other.

Pedro's mind took him back to the scene in the stream.

-flashback-

Staring deep into each other's eyes, Pedro was listening to Nico's shuddering breath. Nico smiled gently at him, nuzzling his beak once more then pulling back from him. Pedro could see and feel their chests rising against each other's along with their increasing heart rates.

-End of Flashback-

Nico imitated his movements from earlier and nuzzled Pedro's beak gently causing Pedro to do the same, lightly toying with Nico's back feathers.

-flashback-

Still gazing nervously at his lover, he slid his wings under his tail and began stroking his under feathers. Nico gasped and gulped at his touch.

Pedro smiled as Nico's eyes fell shut and he placed his head on his shoulder, their hearts still pounding while he stroked around Nico's opening vent. Pedro could feel Nico's breath on his neck and heard his sigh when he touched his entrance.

After a few more strokes to the area, Nico nuzzled and kissed Pedro's neck, smelling the lust and want clinging to him. Pedro felt his own entrance begin to loosen, wetting slightly, finally being able to touch Nico in places he had only dreamed he'd be able to.

-End of Flashback-

The events had been playing out in Pedro's mind while Nico had been lightly kissing Pedro's bill and forehead, stroking his feathers. He had begun kissing Pedro's Neck when the Cardinal was brought back from the memory once more.

Pedro couldn't help but allow a small moan escape his beak at the action, lightly gripping Nico's back feathers. Nico smiled and continued the action, nipping the skin under his feathers lightly every now and again making Pedro jump and himself smile, a few moments longer. While doing so he ran a wing down Pedro's front fisting his feathers gently.

In the few months he and Pedro had been together, the Cardinal had begun to lose weight making him look younger and more masculine, attracting more females to him than usual making Nico highly protective of the bird.

Nico had hidden his worry well up until the day a macaw leaned up into him, puckering her beak and stroking his chest. That day, Nico had snapped flying straight in to her and knocking her off her feet. He then went off in to a jealous ranting rage in Portuguese scaring her and most of the other birds around at the time.

He didn't hang around to see what they were going to say, he'd taken off for their hollow, angry and upset but he couldn't blame Pedro; it was the Macaws' fault. Pedro had followed him closely back to the hollow laughing at Nico's protectiveness.

He explained to Nico that he would have never have kissed her or let her kiss him. Nico was upset at himself for not trusting Pedro and apologised for his jealous rage.

Pedro laughed it off saying how cute it was and he was glad Nico wanted to keep what was his, it showed him he cared. The conversation took to how the Cardinal was slimming down and his new looks attracting more attention. Pedro waved off other bird's responses to him and told Nico that he was only interested in what Nico thought of him.

Nico smiled at the memory when he recalled Pedro saying 'I'll put the weight back on if you want' but Nico replied, 'I will always love you no matter what size you are'

Nico had no problem reaching between Pedro's legs stroking the feather in the area duo to amount of weight the Cardinal had lost. At first, Rafael had thought the bird was ill again like he was when he was younger but upon closer observation, the youngster had simply been exercising more and eating a little better than he had.

Rafael knew this action; it was to maintain the attraction between him and his dove. It was natural. It also showed who was what in the relationship but to everyone else it was just an attraction technique he was trying.

Nico leaned on to Pedro and pressed his beak to the side of his neck knowing that Pedro would respond and whispered 'Pedro, Please.'

Well, well, well, what is going to happen next? I know what is but can you guess?

Yes this chapter is slightly sexual because of the flashbacks but apart from that and Nico's wandering wing it's not all that sexual. I can't make them all like that I'm afraid but I know you're all yearning for it now.

Give me a tiny bit of time and I'll have the next chapter sorted before you know it!
