Reassurances

"Seto, do you like my butt?"

Seto blinked as the book fell from his suddenly lax fingers. Turning, he found his puppy standing in front of the mirror with his side toward it so he could examine the profile of his behind. His hands were placed on his hips as he took in his figure with a critical eye.

What. The Hell.

"Well, are ya gonna answer me?" Joey asked, brows drawing together as his lips began to jut out into a frustrated pout.

Seto stared at him for a moment longer before cautiously asking, "Why do you ask?"

At that, the blond blushed and looked away from him bashfully. "…Well…" His blush darkened a little. "…It's just… I notice sometimes, when I glance at your old nudie magazines… They're all curvier than me. …It makes me wonder if maybe you sometimes wish I wasn't as scrawny."

"…Puppy." Seto sighed and scowled at him. "Do you remember how I touched you last night? My hands were all over you. There was not one spot on your body I didn't touch or grab. Does that make you feel like I wish you weren't scrawny?" He frowned. "…What makes you believe I think you're scrawny?"

Joey lifted his hand to bashfully twist his hair around his finger. "I… Maybe I've filled out a little since ya let me move in, but I'm still pretty skinny. …I'm not really comfortable t' snuggle with, either. I know ya think I'm bony."

"I don't think you're bony," the brunet replied, standing and making his way over to him. "I know you're bony. However, that doesn't stop me from snuggling with you; as bony as you may be to hold, you're like my own personal furnace. I'm never cold with you around." Sliding his arms around the blond's waist, he dipped his head for a short kiss.

The blond mewled quietly as he was pulled up against the older boy's body and curled his arms around his neck. "Mmm…" He gasped as the brunet's hands slid back to cup his ass, giving each of his cheeks a firm squeeze. "Nyu!"

Seto growled quietly before breaking the kiss, leaning his forehead against the blond's as he tried to catch his breath again. "I hope that helped you realize that yes—I do like your butt. …In fact, I love it. Very, very much," he murmured huskily, giving the flesh beneath his hands another squeeze.

Joey moaned and let his head roll back weakly. "Ah…" He gasped quietly as the brunet used the grip on his ass to lift him upward and hooked his legs over his hips. "Ooh, ya pervert…"

"I'm just trying to reassure you that I like your body the way it is," the brunet cooed innocently, trailing his lips over the smaller teen's jaw before he began back to the bed. "Let me reassure you further, puppy."

"Nyu…" The blond blushed as his pants were tugged down swiftly and mewed as the brunet spread his legs. "I-I guess that's okay, as long as ya don't do anything embarrassing— Oh!" He gasped as the older boy began kneading his thighs and began to tremble. "S'to!"

"You have more meat on your bones than you give yourself credit for," Seto whispered, smirking in a decidedly smug manner. "But maybe I should reassure you a little more…"

"N-no, I get it now-! Seto—Oh! D-don't touch me like that! No—Aiyeeeee!"
