His hands worked slowly up her back, making sure to add more pressure on her lower back.
"Your body is a beautiful template and I appreciate it." He said softly earning a groan of pleasure as a reply. He works his way back down her back while gently moving his thumbs in circles
"I appreciate that you let me use your template." He kisses a sensitive part of her back.
"Daichi"
"Your template has given me amazing children, and I appreciate that." He placed a kiss on her lower back causing her to melt into the massage table. "Daichi has voiced his appreciation, Honey. How do you thank him?" The silent third party asked stopping his notes.
"I-I appreciate how gentle and understanding you are when it comes to my body." Honey received a kiss behind her left ear, she whimpered and lay on her side and hug her stomach.
"Are you ok?" Daichi asked worried for his wife. "I'm ok. Everything is tingling inside and out and Merus doesn't know how to process this." He put his hand on her stomach. "Is he hurting you?" She blushes at her body's oddities.
"No, he's making everything more intense."
"You two have come a long way since your honeymoon. I was worried you two would be like my other clients."
"How are Hera and Zeus doing?"
"They are still a disaster." A soft knock was heard and the slid door was cracked open. "I'm sorry for interrupting. Master Aphrodite, they have arrived."
"Wonderful. Have them change and bring them to the private garden Eros." The soft-spoken women close the door and left. "Honey, when I return, we will work on your anxiety. Daichi, start thinking about your feelings. Remember you two, no sexual activities today."

Everything smells so pure on this mountain. The ride up here was breathtaking, the sun rising over the mountain was just the perfect icing on the cake. When we step out of the car my senses felt a little dull and for the first time, I could just focus on myself.
Bo took us inside and these pretty ladies show Cus and me a changing room. We had on basic komons that felt super light and smelt just a pure as the temple.
We were waiting in this stone garden in comfortable silence when a gorgeous man walked us to us. "Good morning. I go by many names but one you probably reckoned is Aphrodite. I will be your marriage counselor."
"Were we trick to think this was a vacation?" Cus asked with a pout. Aphrodite rub the back of his head and gave a nervous laugh. "I'm sorry, I asked your mother not to deceive you." Aphrodite seems to take a deep breath and slip back into his professional voice. "It's important for even powerful couples to have some counseling before they tie the knot."
"Is it because of the consequences we will face if we are found unfaithful?" I asked bluntly Aphrodite nods. "That and much more. Please take a seat." A tatami mat appeared under our feet, it felt like the same material from the personal dojo at the house. We kneeled and had a brief conversation.
"Marriage is about becoming a team; you're going to spend the rest of your lives getting to know each other. Before we go further talking about what union is, I think you two couple should air out your grievance. I can taste the air and I think that's the best starting point. I opened my mouth and was shut down by Aphrodite.
"Don't worry, you'll be in a private and safe space. Cus and Mochi, please follow my assistant Eros and I'll be right behind you." I watch Mochi and Cus leave and I could feel something heavy on my shoulders. (I don't think I'm going to like what's going to happen next.)
"Your mother has already notified me of your punishment. For our sessions, I need you both in your right body and mind. I felt my body shift before I could question him, it was terribly uncomfortable and my face showed it.
~ Aphrodite pov~
"Are you ok?" I asked touching Coco's shoulder. "I-I'm ok." (She lied.) "Be honest with yourself."
"Well, that did hurt a lot." I could taste the jealousy from Whis. It seems he doesn't like others to touch Coco. That's odd, she's laid with two kais but he's jealous of me. I'll question that later. What does Coco think? *He's beautiful like Whis. * (It seems she has a type.) "let's go to another room."
Back inside the temple I split myself into two and start the council sessions. I had them blindfolded and sat in chairs faced away from each other. (If Coco is anything like Honey, I expect her to swing when she realizes her feelings. To combat that I'm sitting in between them in my own chair.)
"The first thing we are going to do is play a game. It's called "I dislike when my partner does this." This isn't meant to bash each other."
"Then why are we doing it?" Whis asked me a bit curt.
"You're a bit angry." I place my hand on his shoulder and released his tension. "Better, now take five minutes to think and we will talk about it."
"But I'm ready now." I didn't think we would move this fast on the first day. "Are you sure Whis?"
"Yes." He curtly replied.
"Ok," I place my hand on Coco's shoulder to monitor her emotions. "You may begin."
"I don't like her in the color light green," ok, light comment so far. "I don't like how half dress she is for vacation; I don't like it when she meets men without me around."
Uh oh
"I don't like it when men and women flirt with her and all she does is smile, I don't like how long it takes her to work, I don't like how she greets new people, I know she has gloves on but I don't want her touching people."
"Shaking hands?" I asked innocently.
"Yeah, that. I don't like her in flats and pants, I don't like how she talks in her sleep sometimes, and I don't think I care all that much for her biting." The amount of heat and rage coming from Coco worries me; what's worse is how well trained she is at keeping all of it bottled.
"Coco, do you have a response to that?"
"...No." I kept my hand on her shoulder and lean closer to her ear. "You're only hurting yourself if you keep your emotions bottled up. I know being taught how to do your duties has stunted your feelings but, right now you need those feelings." She shook her head no and it almost broke my heart.
"Having emotions won't destroy you. The angels, they know when to detach their feelings from their job. You should know how to do the same; it's ok to feel things." I almost smile when I felt her emotions flow without me needing to manipulate.
My heart broke again when I heard her cry, her cries sound like years of bottled up emotions. Heart-wrenching sobs tore throughout the private room it was hurtful enough that Bo almost steps out of the corner to intervene. "Coco?" He's worried? He turns to move so I place my hand on his shoulder to stop him.
"Coco I-"
"Fuck you!" I motion Bo to stand closer just in case we get a repeat. "Did you ever think about it or did you just have a list formed since day one?!" Her question was met with silence. "Answer me!" she yelled trying to turn in her chair. Bo was quick to stop her from turning.
"Please answer her Whis."
"I-I already had a list." He almost whispered.
"I've never looked at your faults and list them! I always just found a way to love them because I know they are a part of you!"
"Coco"
"When I was unsure during training my dreams would reassure me that I would be happy and loved with you!" she finished ranting and caught her breath.
"If you hate being with me you should have said so from the start! Stop fucking around with my heart!" She growls out ripping off her blindfolded and storms out of the room with Bo right behind her.
I watch Whis was slumped in his seat regretting his petty action. "Did you do that to upset her or try to make me mad?" He didn't answer. "You do know she could have taken her gloves off as soon as she met you right? She just chooses to wait until you two got married." No answer. "She seems to please you a lot by playing down her feelings and smarts." No answer "Playing possum won't fix your problems Whis."
He rips his blindfold off and faces me. "Will you shut the hell up!" Finally, something other than jealousy. "I just listened to the one person I care about cry and cuss me out."
"And why did she do that?"
"Because of your stupid ass game!" I shook my head and stood up. "Please, stay here and think about your actions. I left the room to let Whis call down.
~Honey pov~
Daichi and I were sneaking in the hallway being nosy. Coco and Whis session are right across the hall from our room and Cus and Mochi were down the hall we could hear everything.
"Stop fucking around with my heart!" We heard Coco yell out and feet stomping close to the sliding door we were hiding behind. We quickly scrambled back into our room just in time to hear our daughter screaming from down the hall.
"I'm a grown woman Mochi! I have grown woman needs, stop treating me like I'm ten!" *slam* her scream of frustration could be heard passing by our room like a train blowing its whistle. "Damn," Daichi whispered.
~Coco pov~
I'm...sad and angry. I'm in love with this, this, this jackass and he just made me feel like shit.
"This is Fucking bullshit!" Cus came storming out and started to pace. "Just because I'm tiny doesn't mean I'm fragile!" I nod agreeing with her. "Fuck men!" she yelled.
That statement felt right. "Yeah Fuck men!" I shout agreeing with her. "Holy shit you're cussing, what did Whis do to you?"
"He hurt my feelings that I'm allowed to have." Cus look at me for a second before nodding "Yeah, Fuck Whis! If you were my partner, I bet you would treat me right."
"I would, your very enjoyable to be around and I love your baking." "I bet you would do a great job at taking me on a date too. Make me feel like a true woman and not a ten-year-old."
"Why don't you two go on a date then?" We jerk out of our rant only to see Aphrodite looking between the both of us with the grand priestess in tow.
"I can't, I'm not a guy."
"Do you need to be a guy to go out with Cus?"
"I feel like I should be a guy," I replied rubbing the back of my head.
"You don't have to be, but if it makes things go smoothly then I'll change you into a guy," Aphrodite replied before unfolding his arms. "Prepare yourself." With a wave of her hand, I felt my body shift again, it wasn't as painful as last time.
My komon felt loose around my hips and chest. "Oh wow."
"I made a few adjustments by reading your mind."
"Y-you did?" Cus stuttered.
"I won't go into a lot of details in front of your mother but, Coco is your ideal "dream man" I even implemented details of what a date is."
~Cus pov~
Is eyeing up Coco cheating on Mochi? "Are you ok Coco? I know This can take a lot out of a person." Mother asked eyeing up Coco.
"I'm ok, thank you for asking." OH NO! Her, his voice is husky. He stood up and I choked on my spit, without breast the komon was open wider showing off some of Coco's well tone abs. "Are you ok Cus?"
"I'm ok! I'm just a little taken aback You're just a very pretty man."
"She's right. You have feminine features but a masculine built." Coco rub the back of his head "This is going to sound weird," "Your clothes feel weird now?" Mom asked with a knowing look. Coco gave a nervous laugh.
"Yeah."
"Let's go in and let everyone know of this new development," Aphrodite said with a small smile.
~No pov~
"YOU'RE NOT TAKING MY FIANCÉ OUT ON A DATE!"
"Coco is taking her out on a date. While I work on you and Whis." Aphrodite cut in.
"Coco, I swear."
"Mochi, we're going out to have fun. I have no ill intentions with Cus."
"If you kiss-"
"Chill out man, Whis is a jackass but I'm dumb enough to still be in love with him." Mochi glared at Coco not happy about the situation. Coco was no longer a short girl; she was a tall man. A threat. "I'm not happy about this but if Cus wishes to, then I'll agree. You better not try anything funny with her." Coco nods and Cus rolls her eyes.
"Come on Coco, one guy one more to go." Cus chirp ignoring Mochi.
~ Coco pov~
It felt like butterflies were building up in my stomach. I knock and the door opened quickly. "Coco! Oh, you're not Coco."
"I am Coco."
He was taken aback; he studies me for a moment before gasping with a blush. "Coco?" I nod looking up at him. Damn, I'm still shorter than him but at least I don't have to slip on some tall heels in this form.
"I'm so sorry about-"
"hold that though, I've come to tell you I'm going on a date and not to wait up."
"What!"
"I'm going on a date."
"With who!"
"Cus, we are going out to have fun and will be back later."
"Coco we are here to fix ourselves and our relationship, not for you to play bachelor!"
"I am working on myself….by taking your sister out."
"Coco!"
"Hey, does this make me bi? I'll ask Cus. See you later."
"Coco, wait. Don't!"
"Don't what? Go and hang out with someone who actually likes me."
"Coco, I do like you!"
"Didn't feel like you did earlier. I'll see you later." I walked away and could hear his frustration as he slams the sliding door close. Cus gave me a thumbs up from the hall.
"Alright let's go out and have some fun!
"Not dress like that you're not." The grand priestess grumbled with her arms cross, she pulled my komon close tight with a flustered face.
"I fear strange women won't be able to keep their hand off your if you go out dressed like that."
"Really? I don't want to be rude to Cus."
"You're so you sweet, come with me and I'll dress you in something appropriate." The grand priestess said with a sweet smile while hugging my arm.
"Hold it, you're only taking Coco away so you can ogle his body," Cus yelled hugging my other arm and pulling me back towards her.
The grand priestess gave a fake gasp. "N-no I'm not."
"Yes, you are. You saw his abs just like I did."
I was lost, how were my abs causing an argument? The two continue to bicker. I pulled my top open and the mother-daughter argument stop.
"You can grind meat on those."
"Do you see his v line?" I was starting to feel weird, especially since they both started to feel me up. (Note to self, abs make women act funny.)
"Um, are we going to go out?" Cus snap out of it and step back "Of course. mom, stop feeling up Coco so we can go."
"Aw alright, fine." She steps back and snaps her finger making clothes appear on my body. I've got to learn how to do that.
~Whis pov~
This whole therapy thing was stupid, so far, all its management to do is make my fiancé a hot man. Not only is he hot he's taking my sister out while I sit in timeout in this temple... Why did I get jealous and say those things?
Of course, Coco does a few things that grind my gears but they weren't major enough to put in a list. Light green is not good against her skin, she talks in her sleep but it's rather cute and entertaining, I was lying about the pants. Coco was blessed with a plump backside and when she wears pants, she brings a lot of attention. Because I mentioned the pants, I brought up things that made me jealous.
"I'm an asshole for hurting her feelings."
"So, you finally realized your mistake?" I couldn't help but roll my eyes after hearing his voice. "How do I fix this mess?"
"First answer my questions and I'll help." I grumbled some unflattering things under my breath before replying "fine."
"Be honest, why did you allow her to sleep with two kais if you get jealous easy?"
I scoff and smirk. "Because those two aren't a threat to me."
"A threat?"
"Coco would never ever be with those two." He looked at me and held up a finger. "Hold that thought." He left and quickly came back with my mother in tow.
"Whis believes Coco would never ever pick a different partner over him." Mom sucks in air through her teeth while looking at me with a guilty look on her face.
"Whis are you aware of what your mother's jobs are?" Aphrodite asked.
"She watches lord Zeno."
"I do a lot more than that. My most important job is to monitor the timelines across the multiverses. I'm sorry to break this to you but there are some timelines where Coco is not your partner. She exists but she's not with you."
"But she would never pick Shin and Zamasu over me. Right?" The guilty look returned. "I'm sorry sweetheart. There are timelines where she's married to the Supreme Kai of the seventh universe and there is exactly one where she's married to Zamasu."
"I can't believe it. She would pick them over me."
"In those timelines, she would, but we are here in this timeline. She loves you unconditionally, but right now. She's feeling unloved by you so she's returning the feeling."
"Do she really play down her smarts around me?" I asked looking at my mother. "Coco is dangerously smart. With a little bit of manipulation, I was able to tone back how quick she's able to comprehend information."
"How smart are we talking?"
"I gave her a book on architect while she was isolated, four days later she had a little place made. She was so excited to show it to me." I felt gross, I've mistreated Coco and only thought of my sexual needs. Meanwhile, she held back her wants and feelings to make me happy.
"I need to apologize to her."
"You will, and we will make sure it's good. Thank you, Honey."
Honey? "Your name is honey?" I asked surprised. "That's what my name translates to." She replied while leaving the room. My mother's name is Honey.
