Birthday Cravings

Chapter 2:

Blow Out the Candles

"I want you to take my ears….." Ritsuka said quietly, not quite able to believe the words that had just escaped his lips. A light red blush began to overwhelm his face.

Soubi stared at the boy in front of him. Had he really just asked what Soubi thought he had asked? A wave of emotions tried to force themselves out of Soubi. Joy. Excitement. Fear. Shock. And a multitude of other emotions begging to be released. Soubi swallowed the lump in his throat as he chose his words with extreme care.

"Don't be in such a hurry with such requests, Ritsuka. Not unless you are certain of it. Besides, what would your friends think?" Soubi kept his expression cool as he awaited the boy's response. He hated contradicting Ritsuka's request. Truthfully, he'd been hoping the boy would ask, although it was the last thing he expected. He had expected questions about Seimei or something of that nature.

Ritsuka's face became still, and he stared intensely at Soubi, hoping this would help show his seriousness. "I don't have friends…. You know that…. Yuiko won't understand, and I don't care what anyone else says or thinks…"

Soubi searched the boy's eyes. He couldn't read Ritsuka's emotions through them like he usually could. Damnit! Ritsuka had to be serious to have that much concentration.

"Wouldn't you want to wait until you're older Ritsuka…" Soubi asked, trying to grasp onto some form of leverage. Oh, how badly he wanted Ritsuka right now… but not unless Ritsuka was completely sure of himself.

"I'm very sure Soubi… Besides, I look older than I really am. I've grown a lot since you first met me."

Ritsuka was right. He had grown much in the past years. He was tall enough to finally look Soubi in the eyes without having to look up. If he grew any taller, he would be of equal height to Soubi.

Soubi thought quickly. "Wouldn't you want to lose your ears to someone you truly love Ritsuka…" Soubi mentally beat himself. Of all the questions he could have used! To put Ritsuka on the spot in such a way would surely steer Ritsuka away from him forever…

Soubi was snapped out of his mental rampage by a hand against the back of his head. He didn't have a chance to think before Ritsuka pulled his face towards his own. Their lips met in a way that made Soubi feel like flying. When they pulled away, Ritsuka had a bright red flush to his face.

"You are that person, Soubi…" Ritsuka breathed heavily, tears collecting in his violet eyes. "Lots of people in my class have already lost their ears and tails anyway! You always say that you love me… is that all a lie? A meaningless lie? Or is it just because Seimei ordered it!"

Soubi couldn't get over the shock of Ritsuka's action, combined with his admission. Once he managed to bring himself back to reality he looked at Ritsuka, who was trying to hide the tears gathering at the corners of his eyes.

Soubi leaned forward again and wiped the tears from Ritsuka's face with his thumb.

"I'm sorry, Ritsuka… I was just afraid you were just feeling pressured… I don't want to hurt you…" Soubi whispered to Ritsuka.

Ritsuka put his forehead against Soubi's. "You won't…"

Soubi caught Ritsuka's lips with his own again, in a slow, passionate kiss. Slowly the kiss became harsher, their tongues exploring each others mouths with a newfound eagerness. Soubi worked his way to Ritsuka's neck, where he bit lightly, though not hard enough to draw blood. Ritsuka cringed, but became calm again as Soubi used his tongue to sooth the tender spot. Ritsuka moved his hands across Soubi's back.

Of course, by now the sudden movement had woken the poor kitten in Ritsuka's lap from its slumber. It grumpily jumped from his lap and made its way across Soubi's room.

As soon as he felt the small weight move from his lap, Ritsuka moved so that he was on his knees, giving both he and Soubi better access of each other. Ritsuka ran his hands down Soubi's now bare chest (his shirt had somehow disappeared…. Hmm… wonder when THAT happened!), as Soubi began to unbutton Ritsuka's shirt. The soft material slid easily off Ritsuka's shoulders, leaving both young men's chests exposed.

Ritsuka felt Soubi's hands slide down his body, resting so he caressed the heat that was growing in Ritsuka's groin. After a moment Soubi began to kiss his way down Ritsuka's body again, still alternating between biting and licking the soft skin. As he did, he also worked at unbuttoning the front of Ritsuka's pants. He managed to do so with an expertise that made Ritsuka think to tease Soubi about later on. But that would be later on. Right now he was being consumed by the ecstasy of Soubi's hot skin against his own.

Soubi pulled the restricting pants from Ritsuka's legs with one quick yank. All fear had left him for the moment. The only thing he cared about was Ritsuka, and how he would fulfill the young man's request. Thank the heavens they were not at Ritsuka's house for this little escapade though. Soubi could clearly imagine how Ritsuka's dear mother would react when she came in. The look on her face which he would have greatly enjoyed wiping into the ground for always hurting Ritsuka.

Soubi was pulled back into the moment as he felt Ritsuka push him. He blinked in confusion as he saw Ritsuka climb onto him.

"Wha…." Soubi began, but was silenced by Ritsuka's finger as it pressed against his lips.

"We're both supposed to enjoy this right? You have to be having fun to…" A mixed look of innocence and guile entered Ritsuka's eyes as his ears lay flat against his head, his tail twitching behind him. It had to be the sexiest thing Soubi had ever seen. He relaxed and smiled, giving Ritsuka the signal to go on.

Ritsuka kissed Soubi's chest as he rubbed Soubi's hardness with his palm. He undid the front of Soubi's pants, taking his time in pulling them from Soubi's body. Once they were gone, Ritsuka finally made his way to the rim of Soubi's boxers. He playfully slid his tongue under the waistband. Soubi couldn't restrain himself from letting out a low moan. Ritsuka smiled at the reaction, for he'd obviously done something good.

Finally Ritsuka freed Soubi of his boxers, the only thing separating Soubi from himself. Ritsuka and Soubi glanced at each other for a moment. Soubi was about to move, so that he could make his way to continue pleasuring Ritsuka; he expected him to stop there, being new to this and all. But he stopped as he let out a quick gasp. He shuddered as Ritsuka slid his tongue experimentally down and back up Soubi's length. When seeing Soubi's reaction he finally brought Soubi into his mouth, still using his tongue but with more confidence now. Soubi closed his eyes and painstakingly kept from thrusting into Ritsuka. He clutched his hands into the sheets until he finally felt himself reaching his climax.

Soubi forced himself to finally stop Ritsuka, although his body wanted him to continue.

"What? Did I do something wrong?" Ritsuka asked, his eyes growing confused as his tail drooped.

"As you said… this is about both of us." Soubi said heavily. He moved into a better position and nodded at Ritsuka. "Get on your knees."

Ritsuka looked at him a little afraid at first but got on the bed and positioned himself according to Soubi's instructions. He felt Soubi against his back and the older man whispered huskily. "Just relax."

"Okay." Ritsuka muttered back.

Soubi traced his fingers to the puckered entrance. He stroked Ritsuka's length as he pushed his finger into the warm space, the muscles tight around his finger. After a moment, when Ritsuka adjusted to the feeling of Soubi's finger inside of him, his muscles relaxed. When they did, Soubi slid a second finger into the opening. Using a scissoring motion he prepared the younger boy for what was to come.

Finally Soubi positioned himself just behind Ritsuka. He began to push himself slowly into him. Ritsuka cringed but didn't try to stop Soubi. Once he was inside of Ristuka up to the base of his shaft, he slowly pulled himself out most of the way again. Ritsuka groaned, a mixture of pain and pleasure beginning to ripple throughout his body.

He dug his nails into the bed sheets, trusting Soubi entirely in this moment.

Soubi only paused a moment before he quickly plunged himself into Ritsuka, hitting at just the right spot to give Ritsuka the most pleasure. He knew he had found it when Ritsuka let out a short cry.

Soubi again slid himself partially from Ritsuka's body, and thrust again. With each thrust Soubi quickened his pace and increased his roughness. Ritsuka was moaning, his thoughts consumed by one thing… Soubi.

Ritsuka cried out as he felt himself climax, his seed staining himself and the sheet below. Within seconds Soubi also felt himself release into Ritsuka's body.

The two of them collapsed together onto the bed. After a moment, Soubi removed himself from Ritsuka and moved from on top of the younger man, so he wouldn't harm his smaller frame. They lay together like that, breathing heavily for a few minutes. Once he had caught his breath, Ritsuka snuggled up next to Soubi, wrapping his arms around his waist.

Millions of thoughts raced through both of their minds, neither sure what to say or how to act now. The awkward silence was finally broken by Ritsuka's voice, startling Soubi slightly.

"Thank you, Soubi…" Ritsuka whispered, his ears only twitching a little bit.

Soubi smiled. "No, Ritsuka… thank you…"

The both lay in silence again, Soubi playing with Ritsuka's ears.

"I'm going to miss them…" Soubi said coyly.

"What?" Ritsuka asked, pulling himself up so he could look Soubi in the eye.

"Your ears." He replied simply.

Ritsuka's ears were already moving more slowly than they normally would, and his tail didn't have the slight twitch it usually did. By the next morning they would have fallen entirely from Ritsuka's body…

Ritsuka thought for a moment and then looked to Soubi again. "So, what? You only wanted me for my ears?" He said, confusion and a bit of Ritsuka's temper showing in his voice.

Soubi pulled Ritsuka closer to him and laughed. "Oh, no, my kitten… after all… I love YOU remember?" With those words Soubi kissed Ritsuka, who happily returned the favor.

Ritsuka curled up next to Soubi and began to drift in and out of consciousness. Just before he was overcome by the calling slumber, he faintly heard Soubi whispering into his ear. "Happy Birthday, Ritsuka…"
