"Soubi quit it! T-that tickles! I said I'm fine!"

Ritsuka was struggling through his words in between giggles as Soubi thoroughly inspected every inch of the small boy on the couch, looking for any sign of injury. Once reassured that his Sacrifice was unharmed, the blonde finally released the boy form his grasp and allowed him to catch his breathe.

"I'm sorry, but you were attacked…I just want to be sure that you are ok." Ritsuka wiped a small tear from the corner of his eye, which had formed from laughing, before replying to the straight faced blonde.

"I know Soubi. I promise I'm ok. Kougaiji showed up just in time and beat them up pretty badly."

"I see…well you should be more careful. You can't always trust everyone…" This caused a slightly sour expression to cross Ritsuka's face.

"And you can't distrust everyone Soubi. He saved me and after talking with him and thanking him, he told me that his sister was missing; so I thought helping him look for her was the least I could do to repay him." Soubi didn't seem convinced despite Ritsuka's best efforts and remained slightly stern.

"Still…there is something off about those two and they are obviously not like any normal person, even their appearances are off. I don't trust it."

"Well they are different Soubi. While I was talking with him I felt the same way and when I asked what he was…he said he was demon." This finally caused Soubi's expression to change to a very surprised one.

"Demons?"

"Yeah. I couldn't believe it either but like you said, they are very different."

"Hmm…interesting indeed." There was then a short pause in the conversation before Soubi made an abrupt shift in attitude upon looking up at the clock and seeing that it was almost eleven o'clock at night. Ritsuka saw his expression change to his normal happy warm one and he gave the boy a smile seemingly out of nowhere.

"What are you smiling about Soubi?" Instead of an answer however, Ritsuka was slyly caught in a short but very tender from the blonde.

"It is still our anniversary you know." Ritsuka was then warmed to see a smirk cross his partners face and he was eager to return it along with slightly lusty eyes and a low seductive voice.

"I suppose it is."

"Shall we go to bed?"

"Yes…I think we should."

This was all the tall blonde needed and he was quick to scoop the boy up in arms bridal style and carry him lovingly into their bedroom. Almost as soon as they crossed the threshold of the door however, the anticipation and heated passion that had been building up inside them both for four long years seemed to overtake them completely. The atmosphere in the room seemed to almost catch fire and Soubi quickly made his way over to the bed and laid the boy down gently before climbing on top of him with a fiery light in his eyes. It was then only a matter of seconds before the blonde had done away with the boys shirt, leaving him blushing and exposed with his ears laid back against his head, his arms lying perfectly above his head and his tail twitching in a mixture of nervousness and excitement. Soubi made sure to take one last good look at this sight before it would be gone forever.

"Are you sure you're ready Ritsuka?" The small boy gave a small smirk at this question before grabbing onto the collar of Soubi's shirt and yanking him down to catch the blonde's lips in a deep and passionate kiss. Ritsuka then pulled away slightly to look at Soubi panting with lust filled eyes.

"I think I've waited long enough."

The blonde needed no further instruction and he began leaving a trail of wet kisses all the way from his lover's sensitive ears down to the brim of his tight fitting black jeans, earning him small gasps and pants as he did. Soubi's mouth then found its way to one of the boy's perky nipples and he bit down on it gently causing Ritsuka to gasp slightly. Soubi continued his assault while slyly grinding his hips against his partners. It wasn't long at all before Ritsuka could feel the bulge in Soubi's tight leather pants quickly growing and he was then determined to show the blonde just how much he loved him. This determination alone was what gave the much smaller boy the strength he needed to take the blonde by surprise and shift his weight just enough to make the taller man topple onto the bed beside him. Soubi could then only watch on as his lover climbed on top of him, straddling his hips perfectly, and skillfully remove his shirt. Ritsuka could then finally take in the sight of Soubi's snow white skin and lightly muscled chest adorned with various scars that Ritsuka found to be oddly arousing. The boy then gave a smirk before leaning down to nip, not so gently, at Soubi's collar bone causing a low deep groan to escape from his lips that only drove Ritsuka more mad with desire. Ritsuka decided to take advantage of this position and quickly made his way to the brim of Soubi's very low cut pants and unzipped them seductively, finally releasing his very large erection. Soubi became completely entranced with watching his small partner's expressions as he ran his tongue teasing along his entire length.

"Nnn…."

Ritsuka was quickly becoming more and more confident in himself and he gave a few more playful licks and flicks of his tongue before finally taking Soubi's member completely into his mouth causing the blonde to cry out once more. Ritsuka then smirked around the organ in his mouth and looked up at Soubi with a very grown up looking face. He then began to bob his head slowly up and down while swirling his tongue around Soubi's erection. Soubi only became harder when he looked down to see just how seductive the boy looked with his erection in his mouth, his eyes closed and his ears pressed out to side of his head; the sight was quickly becoming too much even for the more experienced blonde. Soubi's distraction made it all the more pleasurable when Ritsuka very skillfully flicked his tongue gently across the sensitive tip of his member and he couldn't help but to throw his head back and groan in pleasure.

"Haa…aahh…"

At this rate Soubi knew he wouldn't be able to last much longer, so he gently took the boy's face in his large hands and lifted it off his erection, earning him a confused expression from the boy; an expression that was only met with a slightly sinister one from the blonde. Before he knew it, Soubi had grabbed Ritsuka by the waist and flipped him over onto his back with one swift movement so that he was once again on top of his Sacrifice. They were both now panting heavily and neither one could sustain this pace any longer and Soubi could see the pleading desire written all over Ritsuka's face. The blonde then ran is large rough hands down the boys fragile frame before smoothly sliding off his tight pants, taking his boxer briefs with them and tossing them onto the floor. Soubi was then finally able to take in every inch of the boy that he loved so much, including his now very prominent erection. The blonde then leaned down to catch his lovers lips in a kiss while sneaking his hand down to trace a long finger along the boy's erection causing him to arch his back high off the bed and let out a muffled moan into their kiss. After a few more teasing stokes, Soubi slyly moved his finger to prod gently at the boy's tight entrance earning him more eager pants and gasps. Ritsuka was quickly becoming frustrated with the teasing and waited for just the right moment to slip his tail around from underneath him and wrap it around Soubi's erection and begin stoking it. The sudden feeling took the blonde completely by surprise and just as Ritsuka had planned, it caused him to abruptly slide his long finger into his tight entrance.

"Ahh!"

Soubi then broke free from their kiss to give Ritsuka a very happily surprised look before slowly moving his finger in and out of the boy. Each movement caused very sexy faces to consume Ritsuka's face and this caused the blonde to gently slip another finger inside the boy and begin to move in a scissoring movement to properly prepare him. While doing so, Soubi suddenly found that elusive sweet spot inside his partner, hitting it dead on, that caused him to cry out loudly.

"Ahhh!"

This caused the blondes member to throb almost painfully and he finally no longer stand it. He slowly removed his fingers, much to Ritsuka's disappointment. The disappointed was short lived however as Soubi grabbed onto the boys ankles, lifted them up so that they were resting on his broad shoulders, and positioning himself at the boy's entrance. He then slowly pushed himself inside until his erection was completely consumed by the small boy, causing him to wince in pain. The blonde made sure to hold very still to allow the boy to adjust to his length until he gained approval in the form of a slight buck of the boy's hips. This silent answer was more than enough for the tall blonde and he planted his hands firmly on the bed before pulling out of him slowly and then thrusting himself back in.

"Ah! S-Soubi!"

Soubi was completely lost in the feeling of finally being connected to his partner and he would have never imagined that the boy's tight virgin entrance would wrap around him so perfectly. The two then quickly let their passion rise as Soubi pulled back his hips and thrust them forward again, this time the boys hips bucking up slightly to meet him.

"More Soubi…please…"

Ritsuka's raspy voice made it all too easy to oblige and he began to thrust in and out of him faster and faster until he once again drove into the boy's sweet spot.

"Ahh! S-Soubi…H-harder!"

The blonde then gave a smirk before grabbing onto the boy's small shoulders and thrusting deep and hard back into him, pulling him down onto his erection as he did. Ritsuka's moans then became louder and louder and they came perfectly in time with Soubi's movements. The boy could then feel a knot quickly tightening in the very pit of his stomach and he began to buck his hips wildly and cry out desperately.

"Faster! S-Soubi I'm going to…Ahh….nnn…"

The boy's pleas were music to the blonde's ears and mixed with his lusty tone, began to make his stomach tighten as well as he did as instructed and began driving into him at an even faster pace. Soubi then gave one last thrust hard and deep into his partner that finally drove the boy over the edge of pure ecstasy and he released himself onto the blonde's chest and the dark sheets of the bed.

"Ahhh! Soubi!

This in turn caused all the warm moist muscles around his erection to tighten, driving Soubi over the edge as well, spilling himself completely inside the boy.

"Nnn…Ritsuka…"

Soubi then gently pulled himself out of the boy before collapsing onto the bed next to him, both of them panting heavily. After he was able to catch his breath, Ritsuka shakily propped himself up on his hands enough to lean over and seductively licked every drop of his essence off of Soubi's chest. He then collapsed onto Soubi's chest, completely exhausted and quickly failing to fight off sleep. Once completely recovered, Ritsuka lifted his weak head to look up at Soubi with half open eyes.

"I love you Soubi…" The blonde then watched on with a smile as the boy quickly slipped away into peaceful on his chest. He then placed a tender kiss on his forehead while he watched the boy's ears begin to slowly fade away.

"And I love you Ritsuka."

The next morning came far too early for the blonde and the sunlight peeking in through the window caused him to stir from his sleep, much to his displeasure. When he opened his eyes however, he saw that he was now alone, and still naked, in the large bed but he noticed a small note placed on the pillow next to him. He picked up the small note and read it with a smile.

Soubi

Left early for school to pick up a pair of false ears.

I don't want any of the teachers to talk to me about my ears.

See you when I get home.

I love you

Chu!

Love, Ritsuka

Soubi then neatly folded the note and placed it on the night stand before rolling over and lying back in the bed with a wide grin on his face. He really had never been happier and he couldn't wait to see his partner once more, earless and fully matured at last.

Ritsuka's school day seemed to fly by in almost no time at all and all he could manage to do for the entire day was daydream of the night he spent with his Sentouki and sneaking in little laughs at the idea that the ears that now adorned his head were no longer his but a façade. By the time the final bell rang to release the students for the day, Ritsuka could hardly wait to get home and take off his false ears and truly admire his new image. This thought drove him to make a bee line for the exit of the building with Yuiko following silently in toe as she always did. Once they arrived in the large courtyard, they met with Yayoi and spent a few minutes catching up with small talk about their day. After a few a short while however, Ritsuka caught glimpse of a flash of crimson from the corner of his eye. He turned his head and was taken by complete surprise when he saw the handsome demon prince leaning coolly against the iron gate that surrounded the courtyard. His mind then quickly became very flustered and he turned to Yuiko and spoke in a hurried tone.

"Hey, can you walk home with Yayoi again today? I have something to do today."

"Ok. Whatever you want Ritsuka." Ritsuka was relieved to hear that the girl wasn't putting up a fight today ad gave her a small smile.

"Thank you. I'll see you both tomorrow."

"Bye Ritsuka."

Once Ritsuka was sure that his friends were out of sight he quickly made his way over to where Kougaiji was standing. He was slightly surprised to see him, but oddly happy. Once he arrived in front of the man, he tried his best to hide his excitement by speaking in a cool normal tone.

"Hey Kougaiji."

"Hello." Ritsuka could pick up a slight tone of concern or frustrated in the dark skinned man and quickly became worried.

"What are you doing here? Is everything ok?" The man let out a long sigh before replying.

"No…I've lost Lirin again."

"Oh no….did you see where she ran off to?"

"No. I just turned around and she was gone. So…I was wondering if you would help me find her." The worry in the man's voice caused Ritsuka's heart to hurt for some reason and he could feel a somewhat familiar heavy feeling in his chest that he tried his best to dismiss.

"Of course I will." This finally brought a small smile to the demons face.

"Thank you."

"It's no problem. Let's get going." Kougaiji then stood up from his leaning position but right before they started walking, a student running by accidently knocked into Ritsuka and his false ears fell to the ground. His heart then completely sank when he saw an odd expression consisting of what looked like confusion and anger cross Kougaiji's face as he picked the false ears off the ground.

"What are these?" Ritsuka then began to panic slightly for a reason he couldn't explain.

"Um..they are false ears…" This earned him an angry glare from the taller man.

"False? But I thought they only went away when you lost your virginity?" Ritsuka then averted his gaze to the ground before replying in a soft voice.

"Yeah…that's true."

Ritsuka then became consumed with confusion and fear when Kougaiji quickly and roughly grabbed him by the wrist with an angry expression and without a single word, began to drag him away at a hurried pace. Ritsuka had no idea what was going on or where Kougaiji was taking him, but it knew that it couldn't be good.
