Sprawled across Dee’s bed, totally naked, his eyes a little glazed and a blush staining his cheeks, Ryo struggled to collect his thoughts enough to speak.

“When you said you wanted to paint me, this isn’t what I was expecting.”

Dee raised his head to look at his lover. “You’re complainin’?” He swept his paintbrush in a delicate curve, outlining the contour of Ryo’s left hip.

“Uh, no, not really, it’s just… With all the sketches you’ve been doing of my face recently, I sort of thought you meant… I don’t know, a portrait I guess.”

“I could maybe do that later if ya wanted, but right now…” Dee grinned wickedly. “Right now I have other priorities. Art should never be rushed.” Another sweep of the brush, mapping out the flat plane of Ryo’s stomach, a streak of color like a shadow on the smooth, pale flesh. “Gorgeous. Hold still!” he admonished as Ryo squirmed. “You’ll spoil my masterpiece!”

“I’m trying, but when you keep doing that it’s really hard!”

“I noticed.” Dee’s grin widened. Dipping his brush in the paint again, he added a touch more color, the soft bristles gliding effortlessly along, marking out the crease where thigh and body met.

“Deee!”

Drawing back slightly, Dee admired the result; it really was a work of art. “Perfect! You look good enough to eat.” Setting the brush aside, Dee leaned forward for a long, slow lick. “Mm, delicious!” The chocolate body paint was definitely one of his better ideas.
