Sorry it took a while to update. I had a bit of a writers block. And no, it's not lube. You dirty minded people, get your mind out of the gutter. Why would Zelos want lube on his neck anyway? Anyway, because I'm such a nice person, I did include some lube in this chapter for all of you. It's not being used yet, and I can't guarantee it will be in the next chapter either, much as I'd like to.


Before Lloyd had a chance to say something however, the tent flap flew open again and Raine barged back in. "One more thing boys, you should always- Lloyd, what's that?"

Lloyd blanched and shoved the bottle back at Zelos. "It's… Water. You were saying…?"

Raine raised an eyebrow but said nothing. "I was saying, you should always be safe! With fathers like yours, I doubt you've had 'the talk' so here you are. I'm sure Zelos can teach you how to use those."

She handed him a bottle of lube and some condoms. Lloyd paled even more. "Ah- I… We're not really… I'm not sure…"

Zelos snickered and took the supplies from her. "Thanks, I hadn't brought any since I didn't think I'd get a chance to use them."

Raine laughed and mumbled softly "You won't get one easily…"

"Hmm? What was that, Miss Raine?"

"Nothing. Now then, I'll leave you two to each other." She exited the tent once more, laughing maniacally.

Zelos sighed. "She's up to something again."

Lloyd nodded. Zelos then smiled and pulled him into his lap. "Now then Lloyd, shall we continue? You did promise to tend to my wounds."

Lloyd sputtered something. "But… I don't think that stuff will really help heal your wounds."

Zelos blinked. "That depends how you look at it. What applying that will bring on, I'm sure that will help. A lot."

Lloyd looked at him nervously. "But… Cherry flavored body paint? I'm not sure I'm ready for this."

Zelos pouted. "Aww, I've had my mouth all over your body, too!"

Lloyd, being as usual unable to argue with Zelos' logic, nodded shyly and unscrewed the bottle, suspiciously sniffing at its contents before squirting some on his hand. Then he looked at Zelos timidly. Zelos sighed. "If you don't want to, you don't have to, hun. You know that, right?"

Lloyd nodded. "But I do want to, I'm just not really sure… what to do, and stuff."

Zelos laughed good-naturedly and pushed him down, kissing him passionately. As they parted lips he nibbled at Lloyds' ear "Don't think about it too much. Just enjoy yourself and leave the thinking to me."

Lloyd laughed softly. "Fine. Have it your way." He grabbed Zelos firmly and flipped the pair of them over. "However I don't think I should be on bottom while I'm doing this."

Zelos blinked in surprise at Lloyds' smug look, but he quickly smirked in anticipation, purring softly. "Why, you're even more enticing that I thought you would be when you're being dominant."

"Quiet, you." With that Lloyd kissed him. He was scared shitless inside but he'd be damned if he let Zelos notice. He slid a hand under Zelos' shirt, tugging it upward until it was pooled around his shoulders. Zelos obediently lifted his arms, and Lloyd tugged the shirt off, but accidentally left it stuck around his wrists.

Zelos squirmed in alarm as he suddenly found his arms more or less tied above his head. However he let it slide as Lloyd started rubbing the sweet smelling paint across his chest, neck and face, tracing patterns in it as it dried. When Zelos was properly covered in the sticky sweetness and panting slightly from Lloyds' hands all over him, Lloyd sat back for a moment, brown eyes shifting across Zelos' exposed body. Then he nodded approvingly and leaned down over him, pressing a mischievous kiss to Zelos belly button.

"Hmm… You're going to be my lollipop." He said as he lazily lapped at Zelos' belly, tracing a heart in the now nearly dry paint and slowly licking his way up.

Zelos groaned in agreement and lifted his bound hands up and laid them around Lloyds' neck, clawing at his brown hair as Lloyd sucked one of his nipples.

The younger boy made his way further up Zelos' chest, making sure every centimeter of it was properly cleaned so none of the sugary goodness was wasted.

"Ahh, Lloyd…"

Urged on by Zelos' whimpers Lloyd started working on the sensitive skin of his neck, gently brushing away the locks of red hair that were caught in the sticky mess.

He nipped at his collar bone and trailed up to suck at the line of his jaw, before lapping at his earlobe. Lloyd then made his way to Zelos lips, and they shared a long, hot kiss. Eventually they broke apart, and Zelos let out a sultry growl. "I don't think there's any need for you to feel insecure… You've got some hidden talents love." He managed to breathe in between moans.

Lloyd smiled, his face lighting up at the praise. Luckily for his 'cool act', Zelos had closed his eyes in ecstasy once again as Lloyd ran his hands up and down his sensitive sides unconsciously.

He became aware of his hands as Zelos arched his back and captured Lloyds' lips once more in a hungry kiss. In response Lloyd trailed his hands down the mans' chest again and teased the skin at the edge of his pants.

Zelos had told him to just enjoy himself, but he wasn't quite sure he was ready to go on. Zelos definitely seemed ready however, Lloyd noted with a certain amount of nervousness. His panting was steadily increasing and he would occasionally grind his hips against Lloyds' when said boy rubbed along a particularly sensitive spot.

Zelos became aware of Lloyds' lessened enthusiasm and slowly broke the deep kiss they'd been sharing. "What's wrong, love? Not sure about what's up next?"

Lloyd looked at him shyly and nodded.

Zelos smirked at him and kissed him briefly. "Very well, untie me and the great Zelos shall teach you the ways of love." Lloyd blushed and tugged at the shirt binding Zelos' wrists.

As soon as the knot came undone Zelos flipped the pair of them over and Lloyd found himself pinned underneath Zelos. He gasped and stared at Zelos, who smirked down at him.

"Just say the word and I'll stop, okay love?" Lloyd nodded again and Zelos took that as his cue to start his 'lesson'.


In the next tent Raine snickered. She'd pierced a new hole in their tent and had been observing the entire night once again. "So I have to stop playing matchmaker. Very well, then I shall do just that. Let's see if the infamous Zelos is up to the challenge. Enjoy your easy time together while you can..." Then she cackled wildly. Lightning flashed in the background.


Not much Raine in this chapter, sorry to all her fans for that. Hopefully the next chapter will be up a little sooner, but I can't be sure yet. Man, I should really start planning these stories. Anyway, as per usual, I would very much appreciate it if you left me a review!
