"Hikaru?"

The sky glowed, as if beaming with Kaoru's shrill spring voice.

"Hii-karu?"

Kaoru prodded the back of the figure lying motionless next to him. Ah, it was a wonderful day to do all kinds of things with his twin brother. The sun was shining, and there was not a speck of cloud in the sky. The world loved the twins today, and Kaoru, the younger of the two, loved the world.

"Hi. Ka. Ru."

Kaoru firmly breathed his brother's name, to no avail. It was evident Hikaru was not going to comply with his wishes today! Frustrated, the boy sat up, and whilst supporting his weight with his elegantly shaped limbs, pushed his brother with full intention of displacing him from the queen-sized bed they shared. Hikaru's head lazily lolled to one side, but he still did not budge from the warm comfort of his cavernous mold on the mattress sheet.

"Fine. Have it your way, Hikaru."

Kaoru's voice cut through the crisp morning air as he shook the concealing bed covers from his sensual and well-built skinny body, stretching out his legs to scavenge for a threshold. He stood upon allocating his soft slippers with his toes, and strode across the bedroom to search for articles of clothing that would conceal his naked body for the day. He hesitated upon reaching the closet he shared with his older twin, and longingly glanced toward the still figure on the bed.

"Hiii-kaa-ruu…"

Kaoru trailed off. With his thumb tucked firmly under his top jaw, he began to enact the expressions of a small child longing for a grocery store item his mother did not have the decency to buy him. He curled his leg to half-straddle the wall structure in front of him, and held his chin toward the ceiling, smoothing back his messy, bed-ridden hair. What was Hikaru waiting for? He stood right there, naked at the rim of the closet doorway, manipulating his body sensually in the manner Hikaru most liked. Typically, his wonderful actions were awarded with small, sweet bites of Hikaru's ivory leather whip on his tender buttocks or with the humid heat of Hikaru's soft, cavernous mouth around his erection. This time, however, they were lost to the cold dampness of the morning, to the grey-tinted walls of the bedroom. It was evident Hikaru was not going to respond to his stimulants anytime soon.

"Hmph. Fine."

Kaoru, finally dismissing Hikaru's lack of response by hurriedly dressing himself in his usual prostitute outfit, strode over to his idle brother and kissed him on the forehead. He smiled gently to himself as strands of Hikaru's hair fell from his forehead at the area of contact, and giggled quietly as the bone of Hikaru's shoulder peeked out from behind its dried, shrunken patch of flesh. Kaoru reached out and tucked his brother's ivory skin back into place, not wanting to further disturb his chaste, pure, and peaceful state by revealing him to his own tainted filth. Content, he gently brought a finger to his lips in a quieting gesture. Hikaru, as if in a complying nod, discarded yet a few more strands of his hair. After staring at his brother's figure in admiration, Kaoru started for the door, allowing himself one last glance at his beautiful older twin before he left to work for the day.

"I love you, Hikaru. Don't you ever forget that."
