Night Talk
Night #7
Zarbon was packing away the bulk of his 'travel essentials' ready to depart the next day. Dodoria entered the room only to trip over one of the many suitcases on the floor and fell to the ground with a scream. Zarbon giggled and jumped over to his fallen comrade, offering his hand to help him up. Once Dodoria took it Zarbon pulled him back up, only for Dodoria to then push the other down on to the bed behind them. Zarbon giggled again as Dodoria climbed over him and started giving him little kisses on the lips and over his face.
''Come on Dodo, I need to get this all sorted for tomorrow!'' Dodoria rolled off him and allowed him get back to packing. Dodoria glanced at his own case which he'd never bothered to unpack and had just lived out of it instead… shower gel, tooth brush and paste, 1 pair of pyjamas, a book and changes of spandex suits, underwear and socks. He quietly watched Zarbon pack his wide range of possessions and leave out a small selection of things he'd need in the morning. Whilst Zarbon was distracted Dodoria took the opportunity to rummage through the others open make up bag, there were his usual things; green foundation, transparent face powder, black mascara and a slightly sheen clear lip gloss… but Dodoria was a bit perplexed at the other items; red blush, red lipstick, purple lipstick and black eyeliner. He flicked his eyes up and saw Zarbon was still busy before applying the red lipstick and blush powder to himself. He laid on the bed on his front, elbows propped up with his head resting in his hands.
''So why do you have all this stuff, then?'' asked Dodoria, pouting his lips when Zarbon turned to face him. Zarbon did a double take at the pink man before he doubled over laughing. ''What, doesn't it suit me?'' enquired Dodoria trying to sound offended. Zarbon had to wipe a tear from his eye as he tried to get his laughter under control.
''Dodo I've seen children apply make up better then that!'' Dodoria shrugged, happy he'd made the other laugh.
''You'll have to tart me up yourself next time. But why do you have this stuff, I've never seen you wear it?'' Dodoria asked, rolling the red lipstick between his fingers. Zarbon took it off him and placed it back in its bag before tucking a stray strand of hair behind his ear, an embarrassed smile on his face.
''Lord Frieza always wishes I bring them on negotiation trips like this in case whoever's involved needs a little more… persuading'' Dodoria looked at the other with a confused expression on his face. Zarbon rolled his eyes and let out a sigh. ''I dress up like a slut and seduce them.''
Dodorias eyes nearly popped out of his head. ''You… you… Frieza orders you to seduce people?!''
Zarbon sat on the bed next to him and nodded ''Yes. Not often, but when a potential business partner isn't sure Frieza sends me out to… entice them in.''
Dodoria thought for a while. ''Do you… do you mind doing it?''
Zarbon clicked his tongue in thought ''No, not really. It's just always been part of my job. Besides, luckily I'm good at it'' he winked at the large pink man. ''Apart from if they're really hideous or gross….'' He shuddered. ''Would… would it bother you?'' he asked quietly.
Dodoria mulled it over in his head. ''I guess as long as you're ok with it, and as it's part of your work…''
Zarbon reached over and held Dodorias hand, giving it a gentle squeeze. After a few minutes silence Zarbon cleared his throat
''…Would you like me to dress up for you?'' Dodoria looked the green man over.
''There's no doubt in my mind you'd look amazing… but I love you just like this, or better yet with your freckles out'' he said gesturing to Zarbons face. Zarbons cheeks instantly went bright red at hearing Dodoria use the 'L' word and he looked at the floor flustered, it also dawned on Dodoria what he'd just said and he coughed in embarrassment.
Zarbon gently ran his finger tip over Dodoria's lips; ''Would you like me to kiss that off for you?'' The large pink man smiled and wrapped his arms around Zarbon, pulling him down on top of him. The two kissed whilst Dodoria's arms hugged Zarbon's waist. Zarbon held his lovers face in his hands as their kiss got deeper. Eventually they had to pull apart for air, Zarbon sat up so he was straddling Dodoria with his hands on his chest gazing lovingly at the other man. ''…Dodoria?'' he asked.
Dodoria placed one of his hands over Zarbons. ''What is it?''
Zarbon nibbled his bottom lip and looked a bit apprehensive. ''What's going to happen when we're back on the ship? How are we going to do this?''
Dodoria smiled and wrapped his fingers around Zarbon's hand. ''Frieza won't like it, but what he doesn't know can't effect him. We'll keep it subtle, no affectionate displays apart from in our offices or quarters. If anyone should ever mention anything about being together we'll just say we were consulting the other about a recent incident. If you want this, we can make it happen.''
Zarbon nodded ''I want this to happen… I'm just scared of what Frieza would do if he found out.''
Dodoria took Zarbon's other hand in his empty one and gently squeezed both of them. ''We'll be careful'' he promised, gazing up into those amber eyes he's fantasized about for so long.
Zarbon smiled at him, his eyes seemed to glisten in the low light. He removed his hands from Dodoria's chest and lowered himself into his elbows so his face was just a few inches above the others. ''Good, because I don't think I could go on for long without tasting your beautiful lips again'' he closed the space between them and their lips met.
''Me neither, Z'' smiled Dodoria as they kissed again and embraced.
