Rumo reached for Gren's shirt. Gren shrugged him away. "Maybe I should just leave it on this time…"

"Maybe not," Rumo said.

"Rumo, I…"

"Gren. Stop. It can't possibly bother you that much."

"It doesn't, as long as no one else has to look at me."

"Well, what if that someone else wants to look at you?"

"Hmph."

"Gren…you asked me to teach you. So let me." Clear blue eyes met deep blue eyes. "I think you're beautiful just as you are. You're like the best of both worlds, you know?" He smiled a little.

"Right." Gren said, but his eyes sparkled. This time, he let Rumo take off the t-shirt.

Rumo's shirt was already off, so he didn't have to worry about that. He pulled Gren up so he was half-sitting. Gren stiffened a little. "Relax…" Rumo said gently.

"It's hard."

"I know it is. But you can let yourself do this. It's really ok…I promise."

"I think...I think I know that. But..."

"But you're not convinced, are you?"

"No."

"Then be quiet, and I'll convince you...there is nothing in the world I can think of that I would rather have...than you."

Gren was quiet. He allowed himself to relax enough to lay back down. Rumo leaned over and kissed him. At first, Gren kept his mouth closed. He still wasn't sure. Rumo was insistent, though, and Gren finally relented.

Rumo's hands ran down Gren's body. They moved quickly over his chest, but lingered on his stomach.

"Oh, don't tease me!"

"I didn't get to tease you the first time. If you still want me to touch you, then let me do it the way I want to." Rumo's hands moved lower. He took off Gren's pants.

"You're horrible..." Gren whispered.

"Oh...then I guess I'll just stop."

"NO!" Gren said, a little louder than he meant to. Rumo quirked an eyebrow at him.

"If you can't be quiet, I can make you," he said.

"I'm sorry. Don't stop. PLEASE don't stop."

"One more word..." Rumo taunted.

Gren shut his mouth. Rumo began kissing along Gren's collarbone. His hands were somewhere else.

"And you expect me to be quiet?" Gren whispered.

"I said that, didn't I?"

"I don't know if I can, if you're doing that..."

"Sure you can."

"Only if I get to pay you back."

"You'll have your chance," Rumo leaned closer, "so just...shut...up......."

After a while, Gren pushed Rumo's hands away. "Stop it. I can't take you torturing me."

"You're a big baby."

"No. But you're doing horrible things to my mind..."

"Like what?"

"I won't tell you."

"Well that's not fun."

"I want to show you."

"Okay."

Gren smiled. He moved so that Rumo was the one laying down. Gren pulled off Rumo's pants. "I want to taste you..."

"Not anxious at all, are you?"

"Mmm...just a little...maybe."

"Wow..."

"All I get is a stupid 'wow'?" Gren asked, tracing Rumo's snake tattoo with his finger.

"Wow..."

Gren laughed a little. "You should sleep."

Rumo's mouth moved as if he were saying something, but there were no words.

Soon, Gren heard Rumo's breathing slow. He knew the other man was asleep. It must be nice...when was the last time I really slept? Without pain...without thinking...without dreaming of Titan? I wonder if this will ever end...

Gren stared at the ceiling, listening to the music box in the back of his mind.
