“Rest?” Kittisak echoed with a pout.

“Yes. Dance tired. Now we rest, Kitty.”

Kittisak couldn’t deny that his thighs were burning from that simple one-two step, and his heart fluttered as Shu effortlessly carried him back to the nest to lay him down. He closed his eyes, snuggling into the cushion he used as a pillow.

Instead of getting settled for sleep, Shu was getting up as if to leave.

“Hey. Shu?” Kittisak looked up at him. “Will you stay with me?”

Shu hesitated.

“Please? At least until I fall asleep?”

“Yes.” Shu laid down behind Kittisak, draping an arm around his waist. “I stay.”

“Thank you.” Kittisak smiled, his heart full and legs hurting, and it wasn’t long before he soon fell asleep. The dancing had completely worn him out, and he dreamed of crystal pools, dazzling waterfalls, and Shu’s lips, wondering if they would be as sweet as the pacay fruit.

In his dream, they were much sweeter.

Hours went by in a blissful haze, and Kittisak didn’t even wake for dinner. He didn’t open his eyes again until the mushrooms were glowing a soft blue, and he realized he was up before Shu again.

He hadn’t realized dancing would have worn him out like that. His brain tried to make a joke about getting disco fever, but he couldn’t follow through. Plus, being in the Amazon where a variety of things could give him an actual fever, it didn’t seem as funny. A quick stretch of his legs made him groan as he worked out the heavy ache in his thighs, and he arched back into Shu’s chest.

Right, because Shu was directly behind him.

Very warm, very always naked Shu.

A jolt of heat rocked through Kittisak when he thought about what they’d done yesterday morning, and he really, really wanted to do it again. It was foolish, he knew, but he didn’t think he could go on denying what they both clearly felt for each other. He was already half-hard, and the mere thought of seeing Shu’s fantastic cock flooded his loins with rampant desire.

Fuck, he wanted it so badly.

Kittisak took a few deep breaths to clear his mind. He needed to make this decision with the correct brain and stick to it, whatever it might be. If they did this again, there would be no turning back, and he didn’t want to hurt Shu any more than he already had. Shu deserved better than that, and Kittisak glanced over his shoulder at Shu’s sleeping face.

Shu was so handsome, peacefully dozing away, and the lights in his crests were pulsing faintly. The very sight of him made Kittisak’s heart stumble over itself, and there weren’t enough words in the world to describe how beautiful Shu was, inside and out. He saved Kittisak, nursed him back to health and fed him, slept beside him every night and held him close, and yes, even danced with him.

Kittisak knew then what he wanted. It didn’t matter how crazy or insane it was or even how short their time might be together.

He wanted Shu.

Kittisak panted as he untied the string of his trunks, pushing them down around his thighs. Shu was cuddled up behind him as usual, his arm draped over Kittisak’s shoulders. He arched his ass back, pressing his cheeks into Shu’s groin with a sharp sigh. The contact felt good, hot, and Kittisak grabbed his dick to start stroking.

He wasn’t trying to be careful this time.

He wanted Shu to wake up.

Grinding his ass back, Kittisak let himself get louder, grunting as he fucked his fist. He loved the prickles of heat popping up over his skin, and the head of his cock was slick with little drops of precome.

“Prrp?” Shu was drowsy, slowly waking up. He grunted, and his hand dropped to squeeze Kittisak’s hip. “Kitty… voca zendo?”

“Shu.” Kittisak turned, leaning into Shu’s clawed fingers. He gasped when he felt the tip of Shu’s cock pressing into his ass cheek, and he stroked himself faster. Shu’s cock was slippery and wet, and it would be so easy for it to slide up against Kittisak’s hole.

“Kitty, caris?” Shu asked heatedly. He was wide awake now, his voice hoarse with lust but alert, and he dragged his lips over Kittisak’s shoulder. “Please, Kitty. Rar caris. Want to touch.”

“Yeah?” Kittisak’s chest heaved. “I want to touch too. Is that crazy? Can we…?”

“We can,” Shu confirmed. “We caris now. Please.”
