"Oh my god, what did you do, setting him off? His polite speech pattern is the worst I ever heard." Junpei groused and shot an offended look at Kazunari. There while, Taiga was clutched to a strong chest and from his other side thin arms were wrapped around his neck. "Awww~ Taiga-kun misses his owner." A stubbly cheek scratched over his own as Teppei rubbed their faces together. "Don't worry Taiga-chan, aunty Riko will help you out." Riko giggled and ruffled his red hair while squeezing him tight. 
                          
Taiga trembled and looked to the ground. The humiliation formed little droplets in the corner of his eyes. He was almost ready to push them off and get them a piece of his mind, but stopped when a small crucible was placed in his hand. "What's that?" He cracked an eyebrow at Riko who had let him go and Teppei was peeled off his side at his ear by Junpei.
                          
"Uhm ... that is for you to use, if you ... you know what, do." If the injection of a vivid shade of pink to her cheeks and the averted eyes was any indication, Riko just had handed him the healing gel they usually used for internal injuries. It was also known for the use in certain activities when women had problems with getting wet. Not that Taiga knew anything about that. The redhead opened the little pot and looked inside. It really was that gel. "Uhm ... for what should I use that? I don't have any injury." 
                          
A groan got through the little group and not only just one facepalmed at the oblivious redhead. "What?" Taiga grumbled and gnashed with his teeth. "Taigacchi~ that is for sexssu~. S.e.x.ssu~!" Ryouta almost sang the word to him, leaving the redhead gaping in bewilderment at the crucible.
                          
"You should prepare yourself beforehand or it will hurt you pretty much." His attention was riveted to Teppei at that comment. "As if you know it!" He scoffed under his breath, face red as a pomegranate. He sometimes really didn't get him, or it, or whatever. 
                          
"Well, not personally, no." The brunette's eyes wandered with a grin over to Junpei who sat opposite them and curiously had snapped his head up at Teppei's first comment to Taiga. 
                          
"Ah so! That's where the wind blows. Seems like I'm out of the competition then.", Riko mused with a raised eyebrow and braced fists at her sides before she attempted to walk off. 
                          
"You ... what? Huh?" Junpei was flabbergasted at the sudden attention. Then it dawned on him what Teppei just had hinted. He shot up from his seat and tackled his bigger friend to the ground. "You stupid bastard." He screeched and punched him hard on his face before he sprung up again and ran after Riko, affirming that there was nothing between him and the soon-to-be-dead-brunette. 
                          
Teppei rubbed his cheek and grinned, looking after his fussing friend. "Ahahahaha ... Teppeicchi~ you are really an evil being." The blond clapped at his knees and leaned over them laughing like mad. Taiga meanwhile stared wide-eyed at the taller man. "You didn't, did you?" He was baffled but curiosity got the better of him. "Come on, Tai. Everyone knows that Junpei is after Riko since god knows how long." Kazunari chirped and swept tears of laughter from his eyes. "He is?" That got the redhead another resigned groan and a heavy pat to his shoulder from Teppei. "You really should observe your surroundings more." The tall male waved and with a grin to himself wandered off to find his fussing friend and the hopefully-soon-to-be-girlfriend.
                          
Taiga mumbled under his breath. "Calling me oblivious again and shit. Damn."

"Well, you are. Most of the time." Kazunari elbowed him. "But since you just asked that stupid question, I believe you know how sex between men work?" Mirthful eyes wandered over the spluttering redhead. "Urg, Kaz ... could you not? Damn ..." Taiga knew very well that he was looking like someone smeared red aluminum oxide on his face. He felt hot and the whole talk about sex and stuff made him embarrassed as hell. "Aww~ Taigacchi~ you will manage. Only sitting or walking on the next day will be a bit troublesome." The blonde winked at him and showed a somehow evil smile.
