Indecent Exposure (Private)(18+)

[-Hideki-]

Amusement was clearly visible on the governor’s face and a deep laugh tickled against Kario’s ear when the black haired male informed him that Chinese didn’t do it for him that his tone of voice however certainly did regardless of which language he was to speak that way. “I thought that much. Chinese is not commonly known for being an erotic language I suppose. Though it would have been hilarious had that rang your bell.” He chuckled at the idea that his boyfriend would have gotten hard from hearing him talking in Chinese rather than French. While it was a melodic language it seemed a little peculiar as it was that different from English and basically every European language. As kindergarteners they had often laughed about having to learn to talk like this but with age came the appreciation for a language that old and complex.

 

“Cute?” he repeated. “Why?” the blond man asked putting on a theatrical doomed expression when his lover said that although his dialect didn’t turn him on he didn’t find it unfashionable but found it cute. “Couldn’t you find it charismatic, badass and charming if not sexy and hot at least?” he wanted to know. “Sven used to poke fun about my dialect and then said it was cute too and he expressed how he curious to know how a man with my accent sounded in bed to tease me.” Ashfield remembered. “And the guy has the thickest fucking accent. You’ve heard it. But he made fun about his own accent as well all the time so I couldn’t really counter with that. Needless to say that I somehow like this accent because it’s kinda rugged and hard and I am fond of hardness” the governor said with a wink, his eyes peering into his boyfriend’s crotch with a stupid grin on his face. “I guess I have to live with a ‘cute’ dialect then I suppose.” He concluded and nudged the young male into his side.

 

He was looking at the other with a smile playing around his lips when the younger male stated that they could surely figure out a way to put Old Greek onto his schedule somehow but that they should probably wait until the election was over. “I won’t learn anything before the election that’s for sure. Maybe if I lose I will actually have the time and stamina to do that and learn another language at my age but I wouldn’t start it if I got elected to be the governor again. I’d be too tired to focus on learning the language after and in between work anyway and my head is usually busting with other stuff.” He let Kario know. “I don’t know how it looks from the outside, maybe it looks as though politicians aren’t doing much but running a state is rather time intensive I can tell you that much.” The blond told the other.

 

An encouraging expression stood on his face and he nodded towards his lover when the man had blushed upon hearing the politician say that he had endless possibilities, by now knowing why he was blushing like that finding it rather sad that no one had encouraged and motivated the other as a kid, determined to do just that now. Hence it made him happy that the other was seriously considering this as an option and was talking about how rich the Chinese culture and history was only to add that the Japanese had a rich culture and history too. “Don’t we all though?” Ashfield asked. “Doesn’t every nation have its unique culture and rich history of how it was born and how it evolved from there?” the governor added finding that this was something that one could probably say about most nations. The politician had seen many nations and he had never felt like one had had no culture and no history to tell. Even Russia, although the country had kinda crept him out when he had first been there because he had grown up with it being depicted as the enemy and even though he had visited it as a grown man for the Corporation he had felt weird there. When his boyfriend said that if he studied Asian history that they’d have to visit those nations one day though the blond smiled widely at him and let his hand run over his cheek gently. “Of course.” He agreed. “We don’t have to stop at Japan and China either if Asia is where you’d like to go. Although I have to say that I always enjoyed my stays in Japan a lot.” The blond told him and he had had. They had offered a lot of fascinating stuff to do and many guys had been incredibly cute and that too had been where Ashfield’s cultural exchange had ended in Japan whenever he had stayed there for a while, between bed sheets. “After I have gotten used to the staring that was.” he let the other know. The staring had been intense and weird and it had made him feel odd and as if every movement of his body had been watched as if he was a spectacle in a zoo because the people had found that he just looked fascinating and weird and foreign. Devon had never been looked at like that ever before and he preferred not to. Kario would probably stick out less extremely, then again it wouldn’t help him if he dragged Ashfield along because then he’d get the stares regardless.

 

Devon raised an eyebrow sceptically and to him what the other man was telling him sounded a lot like making apologise for the school and taking all the blame while he himself only was partially to blame for this or at least that was what the politician thought because teachers had a clear job, they were supposed to teach the students and make them learn. “I’m not convinced. You however have the opportunity to convince me if you so wish when we visit that school of yours. I’m a fair man after all.” The blond said and sighed before he nodded though. “I agree that taking a class one isn’t interested in isn’t the best idea though.”

 

“Define something creepy?” he jested with a dirty smirk and a suggestive gaze when the other said that if anything creepy ever happened to him in that cellar he’d never go back down there ever again. “Does it include me and groping and fondling you? Because that’s bound to happen.” The blond winked reminding about their conversation about going into the bathhouse and the sauna together. At the subject of his laundry and Kario saying that he had understood and needed to remind him to pick up his laundry so that the cleaning ladies would be in a great mood all the time Ashfield chuckled and mused for a moment. “Yeah, well, I think there currently is laundry in the living room and I suppose there is still stuff hanging on a statue in the bedroom from yesterday.” He remarked since he was prone to leave his clothing where he stripped out of it.

 

 

 

 

“Thanks. Since you’re a part of the younger generation why don’t you tell that to my father so that he’ll stop nagging about it!” Ashfield laughed after his boyfriend had agreed that he didn’t think that it would get him more votes from young people if he used social media more but that the people would just end up finding excuses for bad behaviour and making fools out of themselves. “Clarence really doesn’t do a bad job at all. He keeps the site informative and he knows more about social media than I do. He even has a private social media site where he uploads videos of his basset hound.” He informed his lover. “So if you’re into animal videos, check it out.” Devon said chuckling.

 

The governor smirked cockily when Kario teased that he guessed that this meant that convincing him to become a nudist was off the table and Ashfield threw him a playful gaze. “Mmmmh…” he made a thinking expression. “I went to an English university and hung around the Europeans all the time, my best friend was a weird German man and I have European ancestors, mostly British. So maybe that means that there exists a little perverted nudist in my gay soul somewhere that waits for you to awaken my sleeping European perverted instincts!” He said making fun about his father’s opinions and teasingly challenging the other man about whom he knew that he liked to be nude.

 

“It’d matter to me.” Devon said and looked into the dark eyes of the other when he expressed how it wouldn’t matter to him if Ashfield’s father would always be hostile towards him if he had the blond man. “If I can’t have an actual harmonic and nice family I at least want to get as close to it as I can and if my father finds ways to even ruin that little piece, that whiff of family that I can have than I’m not going to forgive him that and I am not sure how many things that I cannot forgive he can do before I’m losing my countenance for good!” the politician made that clear.

 

 

 

His cheeks were still red and he felt still odd to admit to his lover that he had been attracted to older men as a teenager but the kiss to his glowing cheek he received helped to tame it down. The billionaire grumbled though when the black haired then said that he could already tell that he had had a thing for older men but that it was perfectly okay. “If you could tell, why did you have to ask? To torment me?” he mumbled pouting somewhat and crossing his arms in front of his chest. When he had admitted that when he had been a teenager adult men had not been into him despite Devon hitting on one or the other and he mentioned that cute doctor he had had a crush on and his lover was telling him that a lot of people acted like that when they were attracted to someone and that he didn’t have to feel embarrassed about it made a snorting laugh escape him. “Yes, many people act like idiots when they are crushing on someone.” He agreed. “No worries, I’m not feeling embarrassed I just think I should have known that some teenage boy doesn’t have a chance with a middle aged straight doctor with a wife and kids and I should have seen before how that ended.” The blond said. “I had a lot more luck with older guys when I was in my twenties though.” he winked. “I always was with men older or my age.” The blond told him. “I have never been with someone significantly younger than me.” His golden eyes moved to meet Kario’s. “You’re the first.” Devon let him know. “What a complement to my maturity.” Ashfield winked when the other man expressed that he too had a preference for older men and explained how he found guys his own age immature and childish and said that older males had a lot more to offer. That had never been the blond man’s reason but he had found them simply more interesting personally and intellectually and more attractive physically than he had found other teenagers.

 

Giving the other a wide smile he nodded as he could totally see why the young male would much rather focus on the part of him helping to distract him from what bothered him and not so much on what would be if they had had a fight. “It’s a much more pleasant thought.” He agreed but the smile got more and more cheeky and resulted in his dirty smirk. “There is one good thing when it comes to the unavoidable fights though…” he said and leaned over to the handsome man. “The make-up sex!” the politician grinned and whispered into Kario’s ear.

 

The man’s voice got into the background when he felt the hand roaming over his thigh under water and he felt the skin rub over his own before the other was drawing patterns onto his thigh and it made him feel small sparks and the other was starting to enthral him and made him which he’d touch him more and let his hand run higher to his flaccid cock that was caressed by the warm water. When he let his own hand travel down the other man’s side and was getting his own hand down to the man’s inner thigh, letting his fingers caress and touch him there as if his hand was a spider and his fingers the legs, his boyfriend asked him whether there were more hidden locations on the property like this one. Ashfield was leaning his head onto Kario’s shoulder. “Maybe.” He breathed into his ear mysteriously and licked on it before he slightly bit his earlobe. “Touch me more! More intensely!” he whispered into the other man’s ear and let his own hand brush over Kario’s manhood, caressing it before he groped his balls.

[Sathenus]

A small smile crossed Kario's face as he rolled his eyes being told that his boyfriend had thought that much and how Chinese was not commonly known for being an erotic language and it would have been hilarious had that rang his bell. It most certainly didn't do that for him, he figured the tone that Devon used would probably turn him on no matter what he language he was speaking. "I'm sure most languages wouldn't." Kario commented not feeling like he'd find most languages arousing. Though there probably were some other languages that would ring his bell, there would be no way to find out for sure until he came across someone who was speaking said language. After a moment he gave his boyfriend a curious look, "Is there a language that you find arousing?" It was an important question to him, wondering if this had been something the blonde had encountered since he had traveled quite a bit surely he'd come across at least one language that turned him on. Kario was quite interested to discover what language it was, and if he hadn't then it just made him all the more curious.

 

Amusement was clear on his face when the older man asked him why he found his dialect cute, but he knew it wasn't going to be that simple to explain to him. Raising an eyebrow in question when he was asked why he couldn't find it charismatic, badass and charming if not sexy and hot. Opening his mouth to respond Kario his thoughts were derailed when Devon told him that Sven had also found his dialect to be 'cute' and had teased him about it even going so far as to express his curiosity about how the other must sound in bed to tease him more. "You really will I'm afraid. I really do find your dialect cute, but I suppose you could also add charming." He mused with a smile before he leaned up to give him a kiss. "I do really enjoy your dialect though, even if I don't find it arousing or hot. Because it's another part of who you are." Kario finished explaining with another smile.

 

"I'll admit, not knowing what goes on behind the scenes of our government does make it seem as though politicians aren't doing much. But I can also say that since we started actually dating and I get a little insight into your life that it isn't true and you do a lot." He commented with a small shrug. "That's true... and I enjoy taking up your free time, so trying to learn a new language and be the governor would leave very little time for me to occupy." The younger man certainly wouldn't want to have to compete for his boyfriend's time with not just his work but also learning another language, not to mention just because Devon wasn't working didn't mean there weren't things he needed to get done. Already he had experienced being in the large mansion alone from early in the morning to rather late before Devon returned home. He didn't want to experience that and then have the other occupied with trying to learn another language leaving even less time for him. That was probably a bit selfish of Kario, but he didn't feel all that bad about it either. Wanting and enjoying all the time he had with his boyfriend, especially all the time he had with Devon that he was the center of attention.

 

"I suppose that's true." He agreed with a small nod, there was no arguing against that all nations had a rich history and culture. "Not all of them I find interesting though." The younger man commented after a small pause his dark gaze locking with his boyfriend's once more. Thinking about all of the different nations and cultures that were interesting to him, there was quite a few. He was drawn from his thoughts when Devon told him that they would certainly travel to China and Japan if he was to decide to study Asian history, explaining that they didn't have to stop at Japan and China. "Why was there staring?" Kario asked not really understanding why this would have been a problem. Wasn't Japan used to the different types of visitors their country got from all over the world? He couldn't for the life of him figure out why traveling to the country with Devon would lead to stares from anyone.

 

He wasn't surprised when his boyfriend told him he wasn't convinced, Kario hadn't really thought it would convince the older man but it had been worth a shot all the same. When he was told that he had the chance to convince him otherwise if he so wished when they visited the school he grew a little unsure. There probably wouldn't be a point of trying to convince him otherwise during the visit, and he suddenly hoped that maybe the older man wouldn't remember this specific conversation of theirs if he didn't bring it up again between now and the visit. As Devon indicated that he did agree taking a class one wasn't interested in wasn't the best idea it made him feel a little better, since that was the main excuse he was trying to use for how things had gone at this point. It was true though, he had not been remotely interested in learning the language when he had taken it, only taking it because it had -at the time- been the only language offered and thus settled. It hadn't been a good idea, something he knew now even if as a teen he would probably do it again.

 

"Odd sounds that I can't explain or that comes across unnerving, weird shadows. Anything along those lines I firmly define as creepy." Kario stated with a serious expression on his face not at all convinced that such things didn't exist despite Devon's words. There was no stopping the smirk that appeared on his face though when he was asked if it included the blonde groping and fondling him as that was bound to happen. "I can't say it does." He responded. He certainly did not think of such things to be creepy, and he would greatly enjoy them, especially since it'd take his mind off the fact that they were in a cellar, a place he would not normally expect such things to be found. "That's true. It just means we'll have to take care of them when we get back." Kario commented with a smile. They did have clothes in the living room and the bedroom that probably needed to be picked up and put in the hamper to be washed. Leaving such things lying around anywhere but especially in odd rooms certainly wouldn't make the cleaning ladies happy and thus should be avoided at all costs.

 

 

 

Laughing alongside the politician he shook his head, "I could tell your father that but I don't think he'd agree with me." Which was completely true, Kario probably could explain to the old man that Devon have a bigger social media presence wouldn't necessarily get the younger generation to vote for him but could actually gain more negative attention from them instead depending on what was being posted or shared. But he was almost positive that any such thing coming from him would either be laughed at and brushed aside or completely ignored to begin with. Which didn't really bother him in this regard, but it was a bit of a shame that he couldn't help Devon out in this way. "I am sure Clarence does a fine job." He nodded with a thoughtful look on his face. There was no denying that he was sure Clarence did great with the blonde's social media account and had everything handled, he seemed to be on top of such things.

 

The amusement he felt when Devon also playfully responded to his words while making fun of his father's opinions of the Europeans was quite interesting and he enjoyed it. Especially since he now had the fantasies of being able to do just that and convincing his handsome lover that being a nudist was a good idea. Since he wasn't a fan of clothes himself and would much rather be able to run around naked he certainly didn't mind this idea, but Kario also knew that nudist or not Devon didn't mind the idea of him running around naked regardless. "I suppose I could give it a good shot. Though I think if I ran around your home naked that'd be all the convincing you really need. I don't feel like it'd take much convincing at that point." He teased his lover.

 

"I know you want us to be as close to a normal or at least peaceful family as we can, and I want nothing more than to be able to give that to you. But... there really is no telling if your father will be able to put his feelings about me to the side to give that a chance. Only time will tell if he will warm up to me or not though." Kario expressed leaning up to give the blonde a kiss, giving him a soft reassuring smile after. "We just need to be patient, and I think we can both be patient in this regard together. As time goes on, he'll either come to see that he had been wrong about me and change his opinion, or he'll at least somewhat tolerate my presence when he realizes that I'm really not going anywhere." At least that was what Kario hoped would happen. He truly wished he would be able to show his lover's father that he was a good person for Devon and that he wasn't after money or power or anything like that.

 

 

 

Laughing softly he shook his head, "Of course not, sexy. I just wanted to know if this was something you'd be willing to admit and share with me or if you were going to try to avoid the question." There was no point denying why he would ask him something that he already knew the answer too. In the end he just wanted the blonde to be able to admit such things to him, leaning up he gave him a kiss expressing how much loved him in the passionate kiss. "I love you." He murmured softly flashing a small smile. When Devon indicated that he had never been with a man who was significantly younger than him, their gazes meeting before expressing that he was the first made a soft blush cross his face. "I'm definitely going to consider that quite the compliment then." He commented happy to hear it. Knowing that until him Devon had only dated older men or men his own age did make him feel special considering this clearly wasn't something his boyfriend really did. It made their relationship feel stronger and made him happier to have won over the politician than he would have felt to learn that the blonde frequently dated men significantly younger than himself.

 

Nodding his agreement Kario was ready to ignore the idea that they would have the unavoidable fight here and there and what would come from it until the blonde indicated that there was one good thing when it came to the unavoidable fights. He was sure his face showed his confusion to thing, not understanding what Devon could possibly thing would be a good thing coming from such fights, especially since he didn't think anything good would come from it at all. The older man leaning over to him made him all the more confused but when the politician did finally tell him what it was he felt his face flush a little though he laughed amused. "You're right, that definitely would be a good thing to come from such situations." There was no denying that it would be something to look forward too when they did end up getting into fights, settling it and having some great make-up sex. "Let's just hope it doesn't happen very often though." He mused.

 

Kario hadn't noticed that Devon seemed to be distracted or that his mind was to focused on something else considering his own gaze was on his hand and the patterns his fingers were now drawing over his thigh. It wasn't until he felt the governor's hand moving down his side before it had reached his inner thigh that his attention was dragged away from what he was doing. Gaze moving up to lock with the other's golden gaze, already he could feel his heart start beating faster as the blonde's hand caressed his inner thigh. The mysterious way he whispered 'maybe' sent a shiver down the younger man's spine and before he could really respond the other was speaking again indicating that he wanted him to touch him more, to do so more intensely all while his own hand brushed over his own cock before moving to his balls. Kario's breath seemed to catch in his throat and for a moment his hand faltered before it did as instructed, instinctively moving up the older man's thigh to his cock. At first only teasing, Kario was in a rather playful mood again and he couldn't help but take the opportunity to tease his boyfriend before his hand closed around the other's length and started stroking it.

 

At first his motions were still a bit on the slow side, as time passed he grabbed the length more firmly and his strokes became a bit faster. Leaning up to press their lips together he wanted to enjoy their deep and passionate kiss all while stroking the older man. He really did have a hard time resisting the older man, but it seemed as if that really was mutual something he hoped continued this way even as the years passed and they both became older. That thought alone made his grip firmer and when he broke the kiss to breath his gaze moved from his boyfriend to his cock, "I do really love how eager you are, and how easy it is for me to get you hard. It's definitely a nice compliment if I say so myself." Kario couldn't help but tease his boyfriend just a little.

[-Hideki-]

Being looked at curiously before his boyfriend asked him whether there was a language that aroused him Devon raised an eyebrow slightly shaking his head. “Arousing, no!” he answered clearly. There was no language that aroused him per-se or that he found eroticising as Kario found French for that matter. “Appealing to the ear or attractive to hear, yes.” He then said. There certainly were some languages that made a man seem even more attractive or that rounded out the overall impression. Hilariously enough those were pretty much the opposite of the soft and melodic French language for him. It usually were languages with strong and rugged sounds that just sounded masculine and manly to him and he found attractive when he heard an attractive guy speak those because it added to their manliness and that was what he was into.

 

The amusement on his lover’s face didn’t escape him when Ashfield had asked him why he had to find his dialect cute out of all things and it really wasn’t what he had wished for when the other confirmed that he really had to live with having a cute dialect at least giving him that charming would also be a way to describe it. There was a small smile playing around his lips though when the other man told him that he really did enjoy his dialect although he didn’t find it hot and it didn’t turn him on, stating that he did so because it was another part of who Devon was. It was sweet and interesting at the same time. “So you’d say that it’s not so much the dialect you like or find cute but it’s simply me?” he asked. “Do you find my dialect appealing when you hear other men with it speak too or only me?” he wanted to know because if it was only the governor then it wasn’t really tied to his dialect at all and the other wasn’t fond of his dialect but simply about the way the blond specifically spoke.

 

A smile that was rather knowing and a tad awkward was to see on the politicians face when the younger man expressed how he had to admit that it had always seemed like politicians were not doing much at all from the outside but that he had come to change his views on this since he had come to the mansion and been with Devon. “I’m trying to get rid of that stigma but it appears to be really stuck on us.” The blond said as it was a wide spread issue and enraged people when they thought that the politicians weren’t doing anything but were just way too highly paid for doing no actual work at all and not understanding the hard working folks. Whereas Ashfield had worked more than ever before since he had become the governor – granted he had never done physical labour and couldn’t relate he didn’t deny that but he still worked - and he was also really often woken up in the middle of the night to come to the office or suddenly the ‘office’ was standing in his living room while he was hectically fumbling with his dressing gown because he had been asleep and merely wearing boxers, feeling the green gaze of the police commander thinking the guy was totally judging his inappropriate appearance but now he knew he had probably wanted to see what was beneath.

 

When the other than said that being the governor and learning a new language would leave almost no room for him and that he liked to occupy his free time Ashfield was giving him a wide smile, letting his hand run alongside the man’s cheek. “I like you to occupy my free time too. It’s more appealing than having to try to focus on studying a language after work!” he expressed and he definitely did. It had been great to come back home and having someone waiting for him and not getting back into an empty building, even though Mei had bothered them unnecessarily the other day. He also liked to cuddle up with Kario or when he had any energy left at all to be all over him and to fuck each other to sleep.

 

Nodding he looked at the man when he agreed that all nations had their own rich culture and history but that he was not interested in all of them. “That’s understandable.” The governor laughed. “I feel the same way.” The man told the other. “There are some nations which fascinate me, some I find interesting and others that don’t interest me at all.” The politician said. His obsessions were quite clear, his interests expanded from the rest of Europe to East Asia but he had never been interested in Arabic or African cultures and nations at all for example. When he was asked why there had been staring when Devon had been to Japan the man let out a laugh. “Because there aren’t that many foreigners in Japan!” he said. “Especially outside of Tokyo.” The man let the other know. “And I am blond and tall and very obviously stick out as a foreigner.” The man said. “The stares were never hostile though, more curious than anything really and a lot of people were thrilled about me being American. So it wasn’t a horrible experience just… weird and …. uncomfortable.” The man told his lover. “A bit like being a unicorn if that makes sense.” He added.

 

“Odd sounds and weird shadows?” the man grinned widely and he couldn’t hold back a chuckle. “You know that although you might not be able to figure out the source of those immediately that they can very well always be explained scientifically right?” Ashfield said. “Don’t worry there is nothing unexplainable in my cellar. And if something makes weird sounds and shadows it’s usually me.” He jested with a wink. The man really had made some odd sounds in the cellar before. When he had burned his hand in the sauna and had screamed like a wolf someone had stepped on its tail or when he had fought with remains of fabric the interior architect had not needed anymore and he had ended up being completely wrapped in it walking aimlessly through the cellar startling the cleaning lady who nearly hit him with the dust mop before she had exclaimed “Mister Ashfield!” after Devon had mumbled a “Help me!” to her and the woman had untangled the billionaire from the fabric.

The smirk on his boyfriend’s face only made his own dirty smirk become wider and his eyes blinked up when the man told him that he couldn’t say that Ashfield starting to grope him in the cellar would count as creepy to him. He laughed loudly when the man then expressed that they had to pick up Devon’s laundry if they returned to the mansion. “Do we?” he asked playfully. “I’d rather have us drop some more clothes when we get home.” He seductively whispered. “For me to be able to fondle your sexy naked body in peace.” He added.

 

 

 

 

 

 

Though he laughed it was somewhat dry when Kario said that even if he were to tell Devon’s father that being more present on social media wouldn’t generate more of the young votes for the governor but that he didn’t think that his dad would listen to him. “That is unfortunately true. Then again he doesn’t listen to anyone. That’s one of the major problems with my old man to begin with.” The blond stated and sighed. “Well, Jeff actually manages to assert himself against him sometimes.” The politician then remembered. “He’s the IT specialist leading that department for my father and I once witnessed him saying ‘Mister Ashfield am I the IT specialist or are you? If I am and you want it to stay this way I will do this my way and you will stop interfering and I will present you the outcome you want. Otherwise you will be in charge of this completely on your own right now and I’ll wish you good luck finding someone as capable as I am in such a short amount of time or at all. Do we understand each other? Good!’ And my father grumbled and I am sure he wanted to rip his throat out in that moment but actually listened to him and it furthered his respect for him and he let him do his job without interfering.” The politician told his lover remembering this. It had been quite impressive. It had always been impressive how unimpressed Jeff had been confronted with his father.

 

An amused expression crossed his face and he chuckled when his boyfriend went on about how he’d give it a shot to convince Devon to become a nudist and how he thought that it would probably be enough convincing to run around naked in front of him. “I certainly appreciate your tendencies of nudism; it’s catering to my sense of aesthetics and is really pleasing to the eye for me.” He laughed. “And one could indeed argue that it makes me want to drop my pants as well since they tend to suddenly become all so tight.” The governor added throwing his lover a lusty gaze and dirty grin. “I could be naked with you forever.” He whispered into the other man’s ear. But although that was not a lie he only thought about the two of them in private. He’d certainly not like to be naked when strangers could see him or spend time in a nudist colony or something where he was seen from everyone and he had to see everyone naked. Most people wouldn’t like to see Devon naked and Devon wouldn’t like to see most people naked either. And he certainly would feel like covering up Kario completely by throwing himself on him and would get pissed if other people got to enjoy seeing his body so Ashfield actually wasn’t a nudist per se although he had no negative feelings about nudity and appreciated the naked male physique a lot.

 

He had closed his eyes half at the quick kiss and he sighed deeply when he opened it again. “You’re right.” He said and he knew the other was and he knew that chances that his father would change his opinion or that he’d accept Kario and look beyond the prejudgements he had made were extremely small. He might give up the hope of bullying him away at one point but that too was uncertain. And he feared that either his father would destroy the happiness he felt with the black haired or something would happen that would take this happiness away again. The uncertainty of it was what would make him wish for happiness to stay if he were to meet a genie. And then there was his third wish and he really would have loved to have his own family. He had always wanted a family, as a child he had wished for loving and caring parents and as he had grown older he wished for being a better parent than his parents had been. He had to accept that neither would ever happen but he at least wanted something peaceful that didn’t feel like a warzone where he had to keep his guard up so that his father wouldn’t start a manoeuvre and would influence his life by scheming, manipulating, blackmailing and everything he had to do to get his will. The thought was definitely depressing and it showed on his face.

 

 

 

 

 

Somehow Devon didn’t feel like the other wanting to see whether he was willing to admit embarrassing stuff to him was a good reason to well, make him admit stuff that was embarrassing to talk about and he wanted to voice that when he was kissed passionately and the governor let the kiss take him away from that thought for a moment and he engaged in it eagerly, not any less passionately, his tongue seeking the gorgeous man’s tongue, letting the passion take over. “I love you too.” He said a little husky when his younger boyfriend had expressed his love for him after the kiss they had shared. “Although you seem to enjoy it too much to make me admit such intimate things that are embarrassing to articulate! You already know so many intimate things about me which I have admitted to you. “ he found and mused for a moment, then a cocky smile appeared on his face. “I think you should tell me some more of your intimate turn ons in return.” He found giving the other a challenging and at the same time playful look.

 

“You sure can consider this a complement!” the blond agreed with a smile when he saw his handsome lover blush when he had told him that he usually dated older guys and guys his own age and that he was the first younger man he had been with. “Because it is.” he added. “Although you’re that much younger than me you made me fall for you… hard… and I love you. It just shows how special you are.” The governor told him, laying his hand under Kario’s chin, kissing him endearingly and deeply.

 

Ashfield’s hand was squeezing his boyfriend’s balls and his golden eyes peered into the man’s brown ones. He let his hand wander to the man’s cock, running over the length and then up to the tip where he rubbed the glans, played with the other’s foreskin before he let his thumb slip under it drawing circles around it, getting more aroused by toying with the man’s gorgeous dick alone when he felt his lover following his invitation to touch him more and more intensely, feeling that hand and those fingers teasing his dick, making his eyes that were still on the other’s flash up greedily while he himself began giving Kario’s cock slow and long pumps, gradually increasing the speed and the pressure around the man’s hardening rod.

 

His own cock was standing hard and proud as well by now and sparks were rushing through him, building up, his body seemingly getting hotter than the water in the hot spring and he was humming in delight his hips thrusting into the hand of the man, wanting more friction, wanting to feel more pleasure as his own hand was vigorously stroking and teasing Kario, feeling the throbbing hardness only making him more eager and more horny what one could see in the gaze that was still connected with his partners eyes. And when the other then leaned over he knew that he’d be kissed and Ashfield welcomed the kiss enthusiastically, his lips feverishly and greedily greetings the other’s, his tongue dancing around the black haired man’s as he was eating the other up, slightly biting down his bottom lip, humming pleased into the kiss as they were stroking each other’s cock, their tongues entangled in their mouths, connected to one another.

 

The kiss left him a little shallow breathed and he was catching some air, putting more pressure in the handjob he was giving his lover, feeling that all of this was not enough, was not enough at all, craving to plunge the shit out of the other, feel the water making waves around them as they were fucking in the hot spring. A pleasured sound came from him, fuck, how often had he imagined to have sex here? And how often had he touched himself outside here in the summer? But now he was here with Kario and he yearned for more, he wanted to do him. For a moment he got distracted by the younger man teasing him about his eagerness and how easy it was for him to make him hard and Devon just grinned widely. “Says the man who is rock hard and completely excited as well.” he commented and leaned over, kissing his neck, targeting that erogenous spot before kissing upwards, nibbling on his earlobe. “That’s not enough.” He breathed into his ear. “I want to flog your tight hole so that you’ll see stars.” Devon whispered into the other’s ear in a lust filled, aroused voice.

[Sathenus]

Kario was still curious when Devon indicated that he didn't find any language arousing per say, which was understandable to a point. The level of arousal he felt towards French probably wasn't something that was all that common to most people. Hearing that there were languages that the blonde found appealing and attractive to hear was at least a positive and he instantly became curious as to which languages those were. "Such as?" He questioned, the look on his face clearly stating he wanted to know more about it. Suddenly Kario found himself curious about just how many different languages there were in the world, though he couldn't place why exactly he wanted to know either. As he was sitting there thinking about such things he absently reached out and slipped his hand into his boyfriend's.

 

The questions he was asked made Kario stop to think about it for a moment, did he find his boyfriend's dialect appealing when other men spoke that way? It certainly wasn't unappealing, and there was a slight charm to it when he heard it from other men. But he still only found it cute when it was Devon, it wasn't cute to him when it was anyone else just appealing. "Well... I like the dialect regardless of who it is, and it has a small appeal to it even when it isn't you. But you're the only person who makes me think the dialect is cute." Kario admitted after he had considered it for a moment trying to figure out if it really was only because it was his boyfriend's dialect or if it also had to do with other men. Though he didn't find it cute with every man he did find it appealing.

 

"It certainly won't be an easy thing to change, but I think a lot of people feel that way in regards to certain jobs that they know nothing about. People have a tendency to make jobs look easy or like not much goes into doing it from a distance. It's not until people experience it first hand that they can truly comprehend just how much work it is." He said with a small shrug. Kario was just as guilty as others for thinking that politicians were paid way to much to sit around behind a desk and do nothing. But after living with Devon and seeing things how busy the older man was and the work he was doing made him realize that he was doing a lot more than he had originally thought. It brought into perspective just how hard all politicians were probably working, something he hadn't realized before. This type of perspective wasn't an easy one to give most people though, and so it would be difficult if not impossible to get it so that everyone else would come to understand how hard they worked as well and that their jobs weren't easy.

 

A pleased smile crossed his face when Devon said that he liked him occupying his free time too and that it was more appealing than having to try to focus on studying a language. Since Kario very much enjoyed occupying his boyfriend's time he greatly appreciated that the blond seemed to like it when he did so as well. "I'll have to find new and interesting ways for me to occupy your free time as the years pass since I would hate for you to ever get bored of me." Kario mused though he didn't feel like he'd ever end up boring to the politician he couldn't promise that for sure.

 

The explanation he received as to why he had received staring in Japan made some sense, he figured that outside of Tokyo there probably weren't many foreigners and that would bring a lot of interest. There was also a slight amusement when he was told that a lot of people were thrilled about him being American so the experience wasn't horribly just weird and uncomfortable. "But surely it's something you eventually get over isn't it? You start to notice it less and less and before long you don't notice it at all?" Kario was curious if that was the case, he liked to think it was but couldn't really be sure of it since he had never experienced it himself. Being told it was a bit like being a unicorn if that made any sense made him give the blonde a look as though he was crazy. "They look at you... like your a mythological creature?" He replied his tone probably clearly stating he was curious.

 

"Yes." Kario replied when the blonde repeated the odd sounds and weird shadow, though he didn't miss the wide grin that appeared which made him give the older man a skeptical look not sure what Devon was up to. "That may be true, that doesn't mean it won't freak me out in the moment and that I won't want to go back down there again." Kario replied when the other asked if he knew that although he may not be able to figure out the source of those sounds immediately that they could always be explained scientifically. Though he did want to argue that it wasn't always the case, but was there really a point in doing so? A soft laugh escaped him when Devon asked if they had to pick up their laundry upon returning to the mansion just to tell him that he would rather have them drop some more clothes instead being whispered into his ear only for him to continue and say so he could would be able to fondle his sexy naked body in peace. "I certainly can't and would never complain to undressing and dropping more clothes whether or not your intention is to fondle my naked body." He replied playfully. "Though we really should make the time to pick them back up again at some point as well. Even if it isn't to put them back on."

 

 

 

There was no denying how amused and pleased he was when Devon once more indicated that he certainly appreciated his tendencies of nudism, which was a plus. Kario really did enjoy running around naked more so than running around with clothes on. "I do so like how quickly you are to drop your pants when I'm already so bare." Kario said with a smile and nod. There was no denying how much he liked it when the governor was dropping his pants. The whispered words into his ear made him groan softly, "I certainly wouldn't have any complaints with you being naked with me forever." Which was completely true, at no point would Kario ever complain to Devon being naked with him, he would actually prefer it since it meant he got to admire his lover even more. Though the fact that his boyfriend was currently wearing clothes didn't mean that he wasn't admiring him, he still was and probably always would in some way.

 

 

When Devon said that he seemed to enjoy it too much to make the blonde admit intimate things about him that were embarrassing to articulate he gave his lover a small smile. "That's true I do. But I like that you'll tell me these things, even if they embarrass you. Especially since it is just the two of us." Kario commented. Kario didn't want Devon to think he was doing this just to embarrass him though and he was about to comment on that as well and tell him so when the older man continued speaking saying that he thought he should tell him some more of his intimate turn ons in return not missing the challenging yet playful look that had appeared on his face. This made him give the blonde a curious look though, "Like?" He asked not really sure where one should even start on the matter. Sure he knew quite a few things about the older man, but he had found that it was important for him to know them. Granted, maybe getting his boyfriend to admit that he had a thing for older men as a teenager wasn't necessarily important but it had been something he wanted the governor to feel comfortable admitting to him.

 

He was pleased to return the deep endearing kiss that Devon gave him, and he was happy to know that he had managed to make the blonde fall in love with him rather hard made him special. If he was going to be special to anyone he was glad it was the politician considering the older man was the only person that he had ever fallen for. "Well, I'm certainly glad that I have been able to make you fall for me."

 

The attention that was given to his balls and cock were definitely turning him on, not that it really took much to do so when it came to his boyfriend. His body was always all to eager to respond and show just how aroused he was for the older man. Kario did his best to keep his own hand moving and playing with the blonde's cock as well, though there were a couple of times when he got to distracted and his hand faltered for a moment. When he kissed the older man it was acting not just to show how much loved his boyfriend but as a way to get his mind to focus on something other than the pleasure that his body was drowning in. A loud and pleasured moan escaped him when Devon kissed his neck targeting his erogenous spot before his lips were moving upwards. "My body is always excited around you." He replied his voice a little shaky still after their kiss. There was no denying how true those words were, it seemed as though all his body could do was struggle with different degrees of arousal when it came to the blonde.

 

A groan was his next response, and he was all to eager for Devon to do that. He turned his head to catch the other's lips in another kiss, once more being sure to show how eager he was as well. When it broke he smiled up at the blonde, "I can't deny how eager I am, and I am sure you can tell very easily." He wanted it, the longer they waited the more he seemed to crave it and he really did like the picture that the older man had planted in his mind with his words.

[-Hideki-]

“Rugged and strong sounding languages appeal to me the most. It just adds to an attractive man’s masculinity. Examples would be most of the Germanic and the Slavic language family.” The blond male told his boyfriend when he asked him which languages it were he found appealing and attractive. “I also like the sound of Latin but I have never heard an attractive man speak in Latin to me.” He jested, a smile playing around his lips as he looked into his lover’s thoughtful face. “What are you thinking about?” he asked when Kario took his hand and Devon closed his fingers around it and gave it a strong squeeze.

 

Curiously he looked at Kario when the man seemed to muse about whether he found the dialect Ashfield spoke appealing on other men too and when he finally answered the governor grinned slightly hearing that the man liked the dialect itself regardless of the speaker only to add that he only found it cute when the blond spoke it what made the grin turn a little awkward. “I surely must be blessed.” He playfully remarked asking himself whether there was something he did when he spoke that made him sound cute. It wasn’t good for a politician like him to sound ‘cute’! Who wanted a ‘cute’ governor?

 

His golden eyes flashed up as he looked at his boyfriend who told him that he had to find more interesting ways to occupy Ashfield’s free time as the years would go by as he didn’t want the blond to ever get bored of him. “How could I possibly get bored of you?” he asked coquettishly, brushing a strand of black hair out of the other’s face, smirking. “I have to say that you coming up with new ways to occupying my time does sound tempting though.” he expressed with a suggestive wink.

 

Musing he looked at the younger man when the other asked whether one would gradually stop noticing the stares that he had received in Japan. “Mmmh, maybe that’s a thing if you’ll stay long enough I don’t know.” The governor said and shrugged. “It never happened for me though. I was constantly aware of the staring and it made me feel othered and made me hyper aware of how I looked different. However I obviously haven’t lived there. I was just a visitor and never there longer than a few weeks.” Ashfield remembered his experiences. When Kario then gave him a curious look and disbelievingly asked him if they had really looked like him as if he was a mystical creature the billionaire couldn’t hold back a fit of laughter. “No.” he said, laughing all over again. “No.” he calmed down. “They didn’t look at me as if I was a mystical creature. The comparison to a unicorn I chose to point out that I differed and was the only one who looked like me in most places and hence was looked at like something special and weird. But nothing mystical.” He tried to explain what he had actually meant to tell his lover.

 

 

 

 

 

Fake exhausted he let his head fall onto Kario’s shoulder when the other man expressed that he indeed did enjoy to make the governor admit intimate and embarrassing stuff but that he did like that Ashfield would tell him those things between the two of them. “You’ll be the end of me! I might sink through the ground one day if you make me say too embarrassing things out loud.” he sighed theatrically and then laughed pressing a kiss to the other man’s cheek. After he had told the other to reveal to him some of his intimate stuff then too because fair is fair is fair his lover was looking at him and asking him `Like?` as if he wouldn’t even have any idea what to tell him. It didn’t make the blond feel more normal again, his chin leaning on the other male’s shoulder peering up into his face. “How about you tell me your most intimate, hot, sex fantasy?” he suggested. “And what turns you on? If there is something you always wanted to do in the bedroom and what that is or what you’d like me to do with you?” he listed further questions. “Or if there is a certain dress up that turns you on?” he added, looking into those dark eyes curiously.

 

 

“I’ve noticed.” Ashfield responded in a husky, heated voice, panting slightly when they stimulated each other’s cocks and his lover told him that his body was always excited around Devon. “It’s hot!” he hummed and he definitely found it a turn on how intense and eager the other man’s body responded to him, how horny he always was for him, how much he wanted him and yearned for him. It made the governor feel incredibly desired and great about himself.

 

When the response to him expressing how he wanted to plunge Kario’s arse was an eager, hungry kiss the blond indulged in fully, he knew that the black haired wanted that too. That he was craving Devon as much as the politician craved him, that he wanted to fuck badly as well. And that was confirmed when the other said so when their kiss parted and it only made those golden eyes blink up more greedy and lustily. “Then kneel on the stair we’re sitting on, lean your upper body onto the edge of the hot spring and spread your delicious arse for me.” He told his boyfriend, groping the other’s arse with both hands, squeezing the arse-cheeks, spreading them open before giving him a firm slap onto his butt, letting go of him for the other to reposition himself.

[Sathenus]

Listening as Devon told him which languages, or rather the language families that appealed to him the most. Kario couldn't really say he was surprised considering they languages that he was told before that appealed to his boyfriend. When the blonde told him that he did like the sound of Latin though he had never heard an attractive man speak in Latin to him he started considering things a little more seriously. That could be a language he could get behind, it was an old language and an interesting one. When he was asked what he was thinking about he gave the older man a small smile, "Maybe trying my luck at learning a language again. I have to admit Latin has a nice appeal to it." There wasn't any reason to not tell Devon that he was considering trying his luck with learning a language again. If it was a language he actually wanted to learn, a language that actually had an appeal to him in some way as well there was a greater chance he'd actually be able to learn it.

 

The small smile that appeared at his boyfriend's words only seemed to get a bit bigger as he felt the strand of hair being brushed out of his face. "Oh... I don't know. You could wake up some day and find me to be boring... maybe there just isn't enough excitement in our relationship anymore. You find yourself in some sort of rut that you just can't see a way out of..." The younger man started to say though he liked the idea of the governor never growing bored of him much better than the idea that some day he may wake up and decide that his life isn't going anywhere with the two of them and that they should go their separate ways. The amusement returned when the older man expressed that him coming up with new ways to occupy the other's time did sound tempting. There wasn't a doubt in Kario's mind that it wouldn't be, it was one of the many reasons he had said it. "I certainly didn't doubt that you'd like the idea of me coming up with new ways to occupy your time as the years go on. I'm sure it will be quite beneficial for both of us, not to mention fun." He mused his mind already starting to think up a few things.

 

There was still a strong interest when Devon indicated that he didn't know. that he had always been aware of and bothered by the staring, as he'd become hyper aware of how he looked different. It was a bit upsetting to think about, and it made him feel a little bad especially since he didn't want the blonde to feel that way while traveling. "Well, I'm sure that I can be an amazing distraction from all that staring. You'll be to occupied with me to even notice what anyone else is doing." Kario chimed in with a large grin. At least he liked to think that he was the better option and that he was capable of keeping the politician distracted to the point where he would at the very least barely notice any of the staring that may occur. Though even if it was just because they weren't used to tourists or tourists that were like the blonde he didn't feel that the stares were appropriate. There was no point in mentioning this though since he didn't think it was that big a deal in the end.

 

The fact that the older man started laughing when he had asked if they really did look at him like he was some sort of mystical creature made him roll his eyes though a slight smile appeared on his face. "You certainly are one of a kind." Kario agreed with a small nod being able to understand the comparison better now. It made more sense that the blonde was receiving such looks because he was in a sense one of a kind and 'weird' compared to what they were used to than because it was he was like some sort of mystical creature.

 

 

 

Reaching out he ran his fingers through the blonde's hair when Devon's head had come to rest on his shoulder. When he was told that he'd be the end of his boyfriend he couldn't help but let out a small amused laugh. "We both know that won't happen." He mused a he continued to let his fingers run through his lover's soft hair. Still finding that it was cute and that he enjoyed how his lover wa able to share even the embarrassing things with him. It just made him come to realize how much Devon really loved him, because he would share these things despite his embarrassment. Even if the politician himself wasn't very fond of the idea of him drawing such things out of him. When he had asked his question trying to get more out of the other of what he wanted him to apparently share since it was only fair for making the other share something that was embarrassing and he had already been able to tell he wasn't surprised by the answers he received. Being asked to tell him about his most intimate and hot sex fantasy, what turns him on, if there was something he had alway wanted to do in the bedroom, and what it was or what he would like Devon to do with him. The last question made a small smirk appear since he knew what Devon liked when it came to dressing up and it made him wonder if anything really did that for him.

 

It turned out that what did do that for him Devon did daily on his own without any encouragement on his part. "You already dress in what turns me on without any assistance from me." Kario admitted with a smile. "By now you should know how attracted I am to a man in a suit." He added not feeling any reason to be embarrassed about it. It wasn't an attraction he had always had, but it was one he had developed over the years especially considering all if not most of his clients always wore a suit when they had gone to the brothel. As time had passed his attraction towards men in suits had increased, and he definitely enjoyed getting Devon out of them as much as he enjoyed seeing him in them. At that point his mind went back to the other questions he had been asked and he tried to see if there was really anything for him to admit to his lover there that would seem to be a fair trade for all the embarrassing things he had got the older man to admit to him. "I am also pretty sure you know enough about what turns me on, considering you never have a hard time getting me hard and hot for you."

 

Now his mind was going to whether or not there was something that he may have always wanted to do in the bedroom or what he would like to do with Devon. But even the things that did come to his mind he didn't necessarily find it embarrassing. After a moment he let out a soft hum his fingers coming to a stop in the blonde's hair, "Having sex in the kitchen has always been an appealing thought to me. Which is probably why I like the idea of watching you try to cook something for me." This ended up becoming a bit teasing in tone since they had already discussed this a little before, and they had covered the fact that Devon didn't own an apron and his playful yet serious reply that they could always change that. "I also can't say that having sex in your office isn't something that I really want to try. Though... let's just keep it to your home office. Lessens the chance of someone walking in." Kario said a soft laugh escaping him after he said it. He remembered Devon telling him about how his father had walked in on him and the secretary he had at the time, the thought of having sex in his boyfriend's office was certainly appealing whether or not he was wearing a uniform that would entice his lover. But he would prefer doing so -for the most part at least- in his home office a place he knew or at least hoped they'd be less likely to get caught. Granted he would hope that people would have more respect for the governor and knock at his main office as well.

 

His mind was returning to the other question though, "As for things I would like to do with you in the bedroom... well... I don't really have anything specific. You always make me really happy, though I am certainly open minded and open to experimenting as well. I don't have anything particular in mind yet. When that changes, and I am certain it will, I'll happily share anything I want to try with you though." He still wanted to get used to this whole relationship thing, and being free now to actually live his life. During the first few months at least his mind would probably be more focused on trying to make the best of the second chance he was getting than what he wanted to do in the bedroom outside of the great sex they have already been having with each other. Devon definitely made him happy after all, and kept sexually pleased.

 

 

Hearing that the older man had noticed only made him groan and that was really because of the way the other's hand had moved on his cock at the time. There was no denying that his boyfriend knew how hot and easily aroused he was for the politician, and he expected the other's next words. Multiple time the governor had told him he found it hot how easy it was for him to get hard for him and how his body responded to his touches. So it was not surprising, even if it did make him heat up a little more as he was highly anticipating the great sex he knew would occur between them at this point.

 

The greedy look in his lover's golden gaze only made him more excited as he shifted slightly, listening as the older man told him to kneel on the stair they were sitting on and lean his upper body on the edge of the hot spring. Kario didn't even have to hear the rest of it to know what Devon wanted from him, though the hands gripping his ass and squeezing made him moan hotly, really looking forward to it. A heated gasp was his response to the firm slap on his ass before he was released to do as was asked of him. There wasn't any hesitation as Kario got onto his knees and turned to face the edge of the hot spring, bending his torso over so he was bent over the edge just as Devon had wanted. The tile felt cool against his wet and heated skin causing him to shiver slightly, but it wasn't an unpleasant feeling in the slightest.

 

Spreading his legs so he was in a comfortable position and so that his ass was rather nicely presented to his boyfriend he reached back with one hand to spread his ass more and make sure the politician had a nice view. "Like this?" He asked a bit teasingly, though he was sure he had done exactly as the older man wanted. Even going so far as to give his ass a little wiggle to encourage the older man to not wait and stare for too long. As he knew how fond Devon was of just admiring his ass, and though he liked the fact that Devon enjoyed his ass that much he wasn't feeling particularly patient at the moment.

[-Hideki-]

When his lover answered and told him what he was thinking about Devon raised an eyebrow curiously. “You want to learn Latin?” he asked for confirmation as it came as a complete surprise. He would have expected the other to want to learn either French or an East Asian language but not Latin. “Are you really the most interested in it out of all languages you could learn or are you just considering this now because I like it and it’s the least unappealing option out of those I like for you?” the blond man wanted to know because he didn’t want the other to start learning something that he found okay and maybe could get behind but that he wasn’t actually passionate about learning just because Ashfield liked it and it was a part of his obsession with ancient Rome. “Not that I wouldn’t like you to get into this. I just want you to learn what you really want to learn most because you love it and it’ll be useful for yourself. Not because it has an appeal to me as I am fascinated with ancient Rome.” The governor said.

 

It wasn’t like the blond didn’t know that this was something that could happen to them. That the spark may die someday, that they’d have nothing to tell each other anymore and that they’d be stuck in a boring and tiring routine where all passion had rotted away. There was a chance of that happening. There always was. One never knew after all but he didn’t really want to think about this happening to them. And what would he do then? What would he do if Kario and him had tried to settle down and they’d part ways again long after now and Devon would be sixty then or something along those lines? What option other than to die alone would he have left then? It sure wouldn’t be a problem for the other as he’d be about the age Ashfield was now but Devon would be completely screwed. Great, now he had thought about it too much and the possibility has gotten outright terrifying. “I better don’t.” he commented in response to the other’s scenario where Devon got bored of him a frowning, strained expression on his face. At least he got a little distracted from that scenario by the younger man’s announcement that he’d come up with different and new ways to excite him and occupy his time and he nodded when the other stated that he didn’t doubt that the politician would like to hear that and he thought it’d be beneficial for the both of them. “And the stability and vitality of our relationship!” he added badly wanting to prevent to be left after 15 or 20 years and become lonely again, lonelier than he had been the last years when he’d be an old man.

 

A laugh came from him when the black haired told him how he’d be such a great distraction when they travelled that he’d forget about those stares completely and he looked at his lover with a cocky, dirty smirk. “I’m curious as to how you plan on distracting me!” he winked the smirk not dying off when he was then told that he really was one of a kind after he had explained the unicorn comparison to the other. “How do I have to understand that now?” he asked challengingly “Do you mean to say I’m eccentric?” he added, looking into those dark eyes of his boyfriend.

 

 

 

 

“I’m not so sure about that.” he said when Kario told him that they both knew that the governor would not sink through the ground due to intense embarrassment and disappear, as he relaxed to the gentle touch of his lover playing with his blond, fine strands of hair. After he had specified for the young male what kind of stuff he’d like to know from him in return now he raised his head a little though at the smirk that appeared on his face, that had something rather teasing and knowingly, after he had asked him if there was certain clothing that turned him on if a hot guy wore it because he knew that the other was thinking about his thing for uniforms when he smirked like that and it made him look to the side for a moment.

 

When the other addressed that part first he immediately turned his head around and his golden eyes peered into the dark ones hearing that Ashfield apparently dressed in a way that turned the other man on everyday without the other having to say anything about it. Unlike Kario thought who expressed that Devon should know how he was hot for guys in suits it actually surprised him to hear that. “Well, I noticed how eager you always are to get me out of it.” He jested and then slightly shook his head though. “But I didn’t know that you had a thing for suits and men in suits.” The politician said. “I actually thought that you’d not be so fond of us suit wearing folks considering that whole upper class brothel thing.” Devon told him what he had thought. He would have thought that guys in suits reminded the other of his clients and hence would be a turn off or at least a negative for him more than a turn on. And that the fact that Ashfield wore a suit was just irrelevant to him since they had gotten to know each other and he had been one of those clients anyway just not an unpleasant one, although the suits that Devon had worn to the brothel had… required some getting used to.

 

“Maybe.” He stated when his boyfriend said that the billionaire should be aware of what turned Kario on because he had after all no trouble getting him hard, hot and horny at all. “But I want to hear it from you anyway!” he said with a cheeky, teasing grin on his lips. The younger man had after all seen and hence known that Devon had been into middle aged men as a teenager and had still asked to make the blond say it out loud so he’d not accept this excuse from him now.

 

Hearing the other express that he’d like to have sex in the kitchen wasn’t new. They had already discussed that and in the end there was absolutely nothing speaking against it at all. If they fucked in there at least something was done in his kitchen that had barely ever been used at all. It was however more surprising when Kario told him that he’d like to do it in his office and it made his golden eyes widen a little, especially considering the story he had told him about his father walking in on Devon as he had been screwing his secretary who had been bend over the desk, mouth gaping and moaning and the younger man having stated how he could understand the shame and embarrassment the secretary had felt and that it had been even worse than the embarrassment Ashfield had felt in that moment and Devon definitely had been embarrassed and awkward about it. The blond was not a beginner when it came to fucks in his office though. He had had sex in his office in the corporation a lot. But never in his office in the government building of course, though one could always change that! That idea was off the table as soon as it had popped up on the governor’s mind though, when his lover stated that they should stick to his home office as it lessened the chance of people walking in on them. It made a chuckle escape him and he grinned teasingly. “So you aren’t into the thrill it gives you of might getting caught?” he joked.

 

“It doesn’t have to be something different or new. Just tell me something I did that you really enjoyed so that I can do it more often then!” he replied when the black haired let him know that Devon was satisfying him completely and that he didn’t have anything else he’d like to do in the bedroom in mind at the moment.

 

His eyes were closely laying on the other man and his body when Kario got into the position he had told him to get into and he took in a sharp, aroused breath when the other was reaching back with his hand, spreading his luscious arse cheeks open wide for him, allowing him to get the perfect view on that delicate rosy hole that was as tempting as always to him. “Yes. Like this.” Devon’s deep voice sounded ignoring the teasing in his lover’s voice completely as he was too hot for him to care about that and busy admiring and lusting over his boyfriend’s perfect arse, seeing the man wiggling it causing Ashfield to want to fuck him even more badly and left him almost drooling.

 

Stepping close behind the black haired he gave his butt a slap, squeezing the cheeks firmly before his left hand was grabbing his hip and two fingers of his right hand were rubbing over the anus, prodding it and sliding inside of the other. Devon was too horny for preparation actually, he badly wanted to ram his hard rod into him and pound him senseless but he couldn’t just do that, hence he let the man adjust to his fingers, moved them inside, pressing them up against his prostate until he felt the other relax around him. He instantly pulled those fingers out impatiently and pulled the over closer by his hips, his cock spreading the hole as it entered slowly until he was fully buried inside of his boyfriend, feeling the tightness of his insides embracing his pulsing hard dick.

 

Finding a rhythm and pace he started to thrust in slowly, the water moving and caressing his arse and balls as he moved, sliding inside of Kario together with Ashfield’s cock. He soon was going harder, faster and rougher, moving frantically, hammering against his prostate, wanting to increase the pleasure that was building inside of him as his cock was almost devoured by his lover’s hole. Devon was like a wild animal driven by lust, his body was hot and he was panting right into Kario’s ear, kissing and biting his neck as he was moving relentlessly before one of his hands reached out and his fingers dug into the black mane of hair while the other hand strengthened the grip on the younger man’s hip. A deep moan escaped him, pleasure clouding his mind as he slightly pulled Kario’s head back towards him on his hair, feverishly seeking his lips with his own, kissing him lustily and lewdly, his tongue rotating in his boyfriend’s mouth, their saliva exchanging while he kept pounding him, growling into the kiss.

[Sathenus]

“Why so surprised?” Kario asked when he was asked as though seeking a confirmation from him. It didn't occur to him why Devon may find it surprising, not having realized that the politician had thought there were other languages that'd appeal to him more. When his boyfriend spoke again he was asking him if it was because it was a language he actually wanted to learn or if it was because it was the least unappealing language of those that the blonde liked for him. “I truly do like the idea of learning Latin, learning a language just because my boyfriend likes it or finds it appealing would probably end as successfully as my attempt to learn Spanish a language I had absolutely no interest in learning.” There was no point in trying to deny that he did like the idea of learning Latin because Devin found it appealing and liked it, but it certainly wasn't the only reason. “I can admit that other than trying my luck at seducing you and to learn an old language that many probably don't appreciate like they should it wouldn't useful to me. But even with my fascination with Asian Culture and history I don't want to learn Chinese or Japanese or even Korean. There is no appeal to me.” Those languages probably should have some sort of appeal to him but for one reason or the other they just didn't. Not even a little.

 

The look that was on his boyfriend's face said more than enough, clearly the governor had focused to long on this possibility and was stuck on the negatives or at least what he seemed to see was a negative. Reaching out he rested an arm over the blonde's shoulder letting his hand come to rest a few inches below the base of his boyfriend's neck, at the same time he leaned up to give him a kiss and hopefully wipe such thoughts and fears away not wanting the older man to worry about such things. A laugh escaped him when he was told that it wouldn't only be good for them but also the stability and vitality of their relationship. Which was probably true after all. Which of course only encouraged him to come up with more interesting and new ways to occupy his lover's free time wanting to keep the love and passion they had for each other now alive for as long as possible.

 

“You'll remain that way I am afraid.” Kario responded when Devon said he was curious about how he'd distract him from the staring. If he told Devon how he planned to do so it would surely ruin the surprise, the younger man surely couldn't let that happen. He had to have some extra fun with this after all, it'd make it more interesting to him at the very least.

 

 

 

A small smirk crossed his face when Devon mentioned knowing how eager he was to get the blonde out of his suits, he had to admit he loved how sexy the blonde looked wearing them but he was certainly eager to get to what was waiting beneath. Devon telling him how he hadn't thought that he'd find them a turn on but rather a negative he considered it for a moment. “I suppose I had thought of it that way at first. As time passed I grew fonder of the male body in such clothes, there is certainly something to admire and enjoy.” That was probably the best chance he had of explaining how he had the chance to explain how something that he really had seen negatively had ended up turning into something he wasn't just fond of but aroused by. It probably was a bit odd when looked at by another's perspective.

 

The grin on his lover's lips made a small amused smile cross his own being told that even though Devon certainly knew what turned him on and got him hot and horny that he wanted him to say it anyway. Knowing that his boyfriend wanted him to vocalize what turned him on despite already knowing the answer just like he had done to the other with asking if he had a thing for older men as a teenager. “Alright, fine. Even though you already know I'll humor you and tell you a few things that turn me on anyway.” Kario said with a small roll of his eyes. For a moment he was just thinking about it before finally speaking, “My nipples you know are definitely a turn on, not to mention sensitive.” Kario winked at the blonde after he said that a small smile crossing his face. “Paying attention to that erogenous spot on my neck definitely turns me on, let's see…” he murmured trailing off as he thought about it for a moment, “There is also this small spot on my hip that definitely can get my blood pumping, or any soft brush against the small of my back tends to get me rather eager as well.” The last two things were things he was almost positive Devon didn't know about him. “Hot men whispering in my ear can be a huge turn on.” Kario paused again before he shrugged and looked up at his boyfriend, “A lot of things do. Not to mention we have already covered that I am into older men to. Not of any particular age, but mature men are definitely a turn on.”

 

Discussing different things he wanted to do or try in the bedroom had brought them to a topic that he was aware the governor had experience in. A soft blush sprouted up on his face when he was asked if he wasn't into the thrill of possibly getting caught when he had indicated that they should probably keep their office sex to the blonde's home office. It certainly was enough to make him realize that at the mention of wanting to have sex in his boyfriend's office that Devon had thought instantly about his office in the government building and not at home. “We'll… I will admit that it certainly does add some sort of thrill but maybe we should refrain from having sex in a place with a high chance of getting caught until this whole brothel thing and people learning you're gay blows over a little. I wouldn't want us getting caught having sex in your office making headlines or anything and ruining whatever chance you still have of getting reelected.” It was the last thing he wanted to do, Kario already felt that just being with him instead of acting as though he was a fling was jeopardizing enough as it was. Adding them getting caught having sex in his boyfriend's government office and he couldn't see things ending well.

 

The older man's persistence that he tell him what he liked the blonde doing so he could do it more then if he didn't have anything new he wanted to do in the bedroom made Kario roll his eyes though a smile came to his face. “You're determined to get me to admit absolutely everything right now aren't you?” He asked playfully. Though Kario knew he had asked or at least had gotten his boyfriend to tell him about what he liked in a sexual relationship and some of those things had been embarrassing for the older man to admit, the blonde seemed a bit overly determined to make up for that by getting absolutely everything out of the younger man. “I can tell you what you do that I like and enjoy, but you have to do the same for me or tell me what else you want to do or try in the bedroom in return. Since you're being so determined to get everything out of me right now.”It was probably the only way he would continue to let Devon get things out of him, he wanted more from the older man in return.

 

 

 

The hot way his boyfriend's voice sounded when Devon indicated that he was in the right position and doing as the other wanted made his heart race and his breath catch in his throat. It was arousing and made him shift in anticipation, he wanted nothing more than to feel the older man inside of him in that very moment, almost desperate enough to beg Devon to make it quick and enter him already. The slap to his cheek made him gasp again turning his head so he could look over his shoulder and watch his boyfriend the best he could. Eagerly Kario remained in this position unmoving, and although it really didn't take Devon long before his left hand was gripping his hip and two fingers of his right slipped into his aching hole it had felt like forever. The teasing way they had stimulated his hole had only been enough for a few seconds, his whole body was aching for more. Despite how eager he was for Devon just to fuck him he knew he had to have some patience for the prep that was required, even if he a bit impatiently wiggled on the older man's fingers biting his lip and trying his best not to rush things since he was sure Devon was prepping him as quickly as he could. The insistent pressing against his prostate made him moan and gasp eagerly, Kario was able to be proud of how quick and easy it was to arouse his body in this moment since he didn't need much prep.

 

Having barely blinked the fingers that had been prepping him we're gone and he was being pulled back by his hips on to the other's cock. A deep and satisfied moan escaped him as he was filled with his boyfriend's cock, enjoying how easily it slipped in and knowing that they were wondering step closer to what he really wanted. Sure enough the moment Devon was fully inside of him the blonde began to thrust, at first slowly, Kario could feel the water around them moving with the rhythm of Devon's hips. A shiver raked down his spine when his boyfriend's thrusts gained speed and became harder, his own pleasured sounds grew louder, gasping and moaning with the occasional whimper or whine whenever Devon's cock struck his prostate in a way that made his vision temporarily blur from the pleasure.

 

Devon's panting in his ear and the bites and kisses he was giving to his neck made his insides turn pleasantly. Each pant made his heart race more, each kiss or bite and his breath became even more uneven. His whole body was drowning in pleasure, his left hand fisted against the marble that had now warmed thanks to his body heat, his right hand was gripping the edge of the hot spring. Kario’ head had just seemed to fall forward when he felt the blonde's hand in his hair and the grip he had on his hip became firmer. As his head was pulled back by the older man's firm grip his natural response was to arch his back as he moved with it, the gasp the action had caused was cut off and drowned by their lips connecting in a messy but heated kiss. His body and face we're flushed with pleasure, Kario truly felt as though he was drowning in it.

 

It made him quite eager to feel his own release and bring Devon to his as well. As they kissed he tried to distract himself a little with it but the way his back had arched and he could feel Devon's cock repeatedly pounding into him was making any chance of him trying to drag this out simply impossible. He managed to break the kiss though their faces we're still close together as he panted, their eyes locked together. “Devon!” He moaned out the other's name feeling the way his hole gripped the thick cock inside of him tighter. His climax came quicker than he had wanted, but it seemed to shake his whole body as he came and there were stars dancing in his vision, releasing into the hot spring and truly not caring. Even though he was disappointed that he couldn't last longer he was eager and determined for them to do this again.

[-Hideki-]

Listening to the other man closely as he explained how he truly liked the idea of learning Latin and how although he was interested in East Asian culture he wasn’t interested in those languages at all he scratched his chin. It still didn’t sound too convincing, especially when the other said that Latin was of no use to him other than learning an old language and trying to seduce Devon with it – what actually triggered some ancient Rome fantasy on his mind where Ashfield was a Roman senator and Kario a legionary but that was another thing – but in the end it wasn’t the blond male’s decision to make. So he shrugged looking into the dark eyes of his lover. “If you want to learn it go for it. What about French though? You seem to love that one much more?” he asked and then added. “As far as your disinterest for East Asian languages go I think that could potentially become a problem if you decided to study anything China and Japan related be that culture or history.” He supposed. The governor didn’t know because he had never sat in such a class but he was sure that the people who studied East Asian history for instance were required to study some of the languages too.

 

While it did help him a little to relax to feel his boyfriend’s hand caressing the base of his neck and getting kissed by him it couldn’t really ease the thoughts on his mind fully and what had started to concern him and what he was asking himself. The idea was just unappealing and frustrating and he didn’t want to be alone at sixty. He also refused the fate of that senator in his eighties who had recommended him that brothel. Ashfield didn’t want to go to a brothel ever again and especially not as a senior.

 

 

 

He still didn’t get it. Although Kario said that it had actually been like that and he had gotten negative feelings towards guys in suits as he had worked in the brothel at first, explaining to him how this had shifted into him growing fond of the sight of the male physique in a suit there was a huge leap in it as he doubted that this was such an easy process for a mind to jump from one extreme to the other without any stages in between or anything that caused the change. Then again no matter how the other had come to that point it was certainly good for the governor who was wearing suits daily. “Then you certainly are lucky to be with a politician and businessman who wears a suit every day.” He teased letting his hand run over the other man’s arm, over his shoulder towards his chest.

 

When Kario talked about what turned him on and he mentioned his nipples and how sensitive they were Ashfield was imagining the other man’s aroused face and moans and the trembling of that gorgeous body when he toyed and sucked his nipples and he had to be careful or he’d be the one to get hot from what he was thinking about but he damn well knew that this turned his lover on but not only his lover, sucking and licking the black haired man’s nipples got the politician aroused as well and listening further he made a mental note that he still had to make the other cum from just his nipples. The erogenous spot on his neck wasn’t a surprise but then the other actually said something new that the governor hadn’t known about a spot on his hip and on his back. Curiously and exploring his hand reached out, up the man’s thigh to his hip, his fingers touching and pressing onto each centimetre to find that stop the other man was talking about, his golden eyes looking into the other’s either waiting for Kario to take his hand and guide it there or to find it himself and observe his reaction on the man’s face. Not even listening properly anymore because he knew that the other got hot when he whispered into his ear and that the man had admitted to be into older guys too what was good or otherwise he’d probably not been into Ashfield to begin with or chances would have been lower that he’d fall for him.

 

Kario blushed after Devon had teasingly asked him whether he wasn’t into the thrill of might getting caught having sex in his actual office and not his home office and he found it absolutely adorable how the other was responding to the tease seriously, admitting that it did have a certain appeal to him but that he thought they should wait until the brothel scandal was forgotten and Devon being gay had sunken in with the public, that he didn’t want to make headlines having sex in the government building, not wanting to ruin the chances he had of still getting re-elected. His golden eyes looked at him warmly as he took Kario’s jaw into his hand and pressed a gentle, loving kiss onto his lips. “I was just teasing you cutie!” he said. “I tell you what though. If I get re-elected we’ll have plenty opportunities to fuck in my office the next four years. And if I won’t get re-elected, I’ll drop a quick statement for the media admitting my defeat, we’ll leave my overly gigantic birthday party, go into that damn office and fuck and cum and rub our naked bodies all over the entire office and the anteroom, and the elevator and just everywhere before Claris Miller will sat a foot into it!” he described. “How does that sound?” he spoke temptingly. “And then my father will send us on a Sweden vacation because I lost the election.” He added laughing.

 

“Alright. Deal!” Devon said with a grin on his face when his younger boyfriend told him that he’d tell him what he liked Ashfield doing and what he wanted him to do more in the bedroom if Ashfield returned the favour and told him what he liked that Kario did to him or what new things he’d like to do in the bedroom.

 

 

 

 

The messy wild kiss and the pleasure that was streaming through him, starting to make him drown in it, was driving him crazy with lust and his orgasm was starting to build up. It wasn’t given enough time though since as soon as the hot kiss broke he was feeling his lover’s muscle constrict hard around his dick, grabbing it mercilessly as if the other’s arse didn’t want to let go of it anymore, he heard that husky, pleasured voice moan out his name as his boyfriend was cumming, his seeds mixing with the water of the hot spring, Ashfield moaning at the intense pleasure shooting into his head due to the strangling tight grip of the other’s insides around his cock but the relaxation of Kario’s body kicked in and unfinished the governor pulled his throbbing, hard rod out of the black haired male’s arse, letting go of the other, his hand instantly going to his own cock, stroking himself to not break the flow and let the pleasure ebb out. “Kario!” he called out the other’s name panting. “Turn around! Suck me off!” he asked the other to get him over the edge and make him cum too, at this point desperately wanting to unload and have his climax.

[Sathenus]

“I would really love to learn French too.” Kario admitted without any thought. There wasn't any reason to deny it after all, especially if that was something that Devon had already picked up on. A soft sigh was his response when the blonde indicated that not having an interest in the Asian languages may possibly be a problem when it came to Asian Culture and history. He knew that Devon was right after all, but those languages despite their history were of no interest to him. Maybe it was because he knew their difficulty and just didn't think he was capable of learning one of them. “I know… but they are so complicated and vastly different than other languages.” He murmured knowing he would at least have to attempt to learn one of them if he did decide to pursue Asian Culture and history. “I'll just have to wait and see what happens.” He added after a few more minutes of thinking.

 

“That I am. Though I do certainly love seeing you out of them just as much.” He responded with a small playful smirk. Devon certainly did look sexy both in and out of a suit, and Kario would be interested to hear someone try to argue otherwise. But he could understand just how lucky he was, sure an attraction to men in suits probably wasn't very common though he doubted it was unheard of. Especially developing in such a manner as his own attraction, having gone from seeing such men as perverts who wanted nothing more than to us his body to growing fond of the male form clothed beneath such apparel. Of course such a drastic change in outlook didn't happen immediately and actually took a couple years to develop. But it had in the end been beneficial to him, and he often wondered if it was because he had ended up having quite a few clients who were at least decent to him and allowed him to see that not all of them were pricks.

 

 

 

 

He could only imagine what was going through his boyfriend's imagination when he had mentioned how nipples and they're sensitivity again, knowing that Devon had expressed his desire to bring him to climax by his nipples alone at least once. The mention of the erogenous spot on his neck didn't have any reaction either but he wasn't entirely surprised since his lover's had so easily found that spot by himself. The way the politician's expression changed at the mention of the shot on his hip and back want entirely a surprise either, what was surprising was the hand that had moved curiously and explorinly up his thigh to his hip as the older man apparently decided he wanted to discover where said spot was. For a moment he just watched him back before Kario finally reached down and took Devon's hand in his own. Bring his boyfriend's hand to a certain spot he encouraged it to wrap around his hip at which point he guided his fingers and thumb into certain spots. A jolt of pleasure rushed through him when he felt the governor press into the right spot. At least this way he had given his boyfriend a better general idea of where that spot was located but thanks to his guidance hadn't fully given it away either since he hadn't indicated which finger exactly had pressed into the right spot. Taking in a deep breath he let it out softly and offered him a smile, “The spot works on both hips.” Though his mind then wandered to the spot on his back. “As for that spot on my back You've actually encountered it before and unknowingly stimulated it. But I'll give you a hint by saying it's along my spine, and on the lower half of my back.” It was with a teasing from that he said this. Encouraging his boyfriend to discover the locations of these shots while knowing that the discovery of them would be quite beneficial to him as well.

 

Kario wasn't sure what part made him blush more, the promise of them having plenty of opportunities to have sex in the governor's government office over the next four years if he was reelected, or the promise -or maybe just suggestion- of what they would do if he didn't win the election. “I can’t honestly say that neither of those things sound extremely arousing to me or that I would complain against either of them actually happening.” Kario stated as he tried to get a hold of just how bad his blush had become before he gave the older man a small smile. “I am sure you know I wouldn't complain to either of those things actually happening. But I don't think us slipping away to have sex all over that office or any other part of that building would be the best idea… I mean… surely we'd get caught somehow.” Though he had admitted that the thrill of possibly getting caught wasn't a turn off for him, he was still worried about the impact it could have on his boyfriend regardless of if he was reelected or not. Even if both of those scenarios really were hot and appealing.

 

Hearing Devon agree to reciprocating and telling him what the other enjoyed him doing, wanted him to do more of or what else he wanted to try during sex wasn't surprising. There wasn't any reason for Devon not to agree, though the expression his boyfriend had made him a little curious to discover what the blonde would say. “We'll for starters I do really enjoy it when you use your tongue to aide in your preparations.” Again this probably wasn't really news to his lover, but he'd tell him all the same. “Teasing is something I'm sure you noticed I enjoy doing, but I can't deny how it can make things quite intense as well. Whether the teasing is from me… or you.” Kario enjoyed being a tease and seeing the responses he could get from Devon because of those actions, but he couldn't deny that he also enjoyed being teased. At this point his mind paused, trying to figure out what else, if anything, he wanted Devon to do more of our maybe even something new to try. Nothing was immediately coming to mind, since as he said before, the blonde did exceptionally well at pressing him without really getting given any direction. He still felt as though Devon just seemed to know his body, giving him what he needed and wanted when necessary.

 

 

 

Feeling his boyfriend's hard cock slipping from his hole made him groan softly, Kario had half expected to feel it thrusting back into him despite having already cum himself since he was aware that Devon still had not. It was the fact that he was completely released at the same time that was his first clue that it wasn't going to happen. The second came when he heard Devon call his name before he was asked to turn around and suck him off. Instantly he moved to comply and bring the blonde his release, turning around his gaze immediately became hungry seeing how hard and aroused his boyfriend's cock still was. Eagerly he took Devon's hard cock into his mouth, letting the full length slide inside as he moaned happily around the length. Kario was eager to make sure that Devon came as well, his own body still in the afterglow of his own climax. His mind focused only on the pleasure he was giving his boyfriend. His eyes were watching the older man's reactions, using them to gauge the best way of giving his lover his climax without dragging it out. Knowing and clearly seeing Devon's desperation to cum as well.

[-Hideki-]

There was a smile on his face when the other male told him how he would definitely love to learn French too, sounding a lot more enthusiastic about this than about Latin. “See.” Ashfield pointed out. “That’s what was missing when you talked about learning Latin.” The governor said. “So how about you pursue the one you’re most interested in first and when you’ve learned it and are proficient in it attempt another one.” He suggested. Upon learning that Kario found that East Asian languages seemed too complicated and way too different from their language he looked at him with a mild expression on his face. “I know.” He stated. There was no denying that those languages were difficult, there too was no denying that they had nothing in common with theirs. “But I managed to learn Chinese too didn’t I? And I don’t even have any fascination with the country or its history.” he reminded him how he had learned it in an attempt to make him see that if he could, so could the younger man.

 

Finally his lover took his hand and guided it along his hip onto the right place and Ashfield could see his cute boyfriend shudder in pleasure immediately as his finger pressed onto the spot and once more the governor got aware of how erotic and aesthetic Kario was when in pleasure and Devon couldn’t help himself but to move every single finger after the other to find out which of them was laying on the spot exactly to remember where it was. Being breathlessly told that the spots worked on both sides of the man’s hips he made the other hand join on the other side as he placed his hand there and pressed both spots at the same time, multiple times one after the other, before drawing circles over the skin with some pressure attached to the area. It was amazing how many erogenous spots the black haired had and how sensitive they were. Ashfield wished he had spots like those but he hadn’t or at least neither he nor anyone else had found them before. Devon’s nipples were also pretty much a dead end as it seemed because there was nothing coming from rubbing them or doing much anything with them. They weren’t even much sensitive to pain as he had figured out because Jeff had violently pinched him there when Devon had pissed him off once. Maybe they’d find such a spot on him once and in the meantime he’d try to find back that spot on Kario’s back next time.

 

It was cute and hilarious at the same time how intensely his young lover blushed when he had made his suggestions in regards to having sex in the government building. And when Kario acted really considerate and responsible when he said that he thought that it probably wouldn’t be a good idea to leave his birthday party to have sex in that building and office as the chance of them getting caught was high the blond shrugged with a laugh. “If I won’t get re-elected my political career is over anyway. I will be remembered as the gay governor who had caused scandal by having sex with an almost twenty years younger male prostitute and ruined his career. I will not get elected for other offices anymore in that case. I’ll go back into economy and frankly no one gives a rat’s ass about my sex life again then.” He let the other know. And it was true. When he had been a businessman only, his antics had not concerned anyone. He had lived a promiscuous life for quite some time as a young man, he had had sex with many men, some of them even known figures whom his father had blackmailed to shut up about it when he had started his political career, and if he wasn’t in politics anymore, he’d gain a lot of freedom back in that regard.

 

When Kario told him what he specifically liked when he did it to him in bed and what he wanted him to do more the first he heard was that the young male liked it when Devon gave him a rimjob during preparations. He had known that the other had enjoyed it and he also knew that he was really good at eating arse but he hadn’t expected this to be one of the things he wanted him to do even more, although he’d certainly do it and didn’t mind to give the other a proper rim session, maybe to focus more on doing that sometimes instead only doing it for preparation. The second one came more unexpected as he had not had that on the radar at all. He figured that the other liked to tease him but he hadn’t thought that the black haired wanted Devon to tease him more. “I see. I’ll do my best to tease you more then.” He told him with a wink.

 

Returning the favour he looked into the dark eyes of the other, deciding to give the other man two things that turned him on incredibly and that he’d like the other to do more for him in return for the two he had told him because fair was fair and otherwise it wouldn’t be a good deal would it? “It makes my blood boil and my cock damn hard whenever you lick cum from my fingers or from any other part of my body for that matter, that devotedly and erotically.” He let him know. “And I’m into when you get bold and confident and express what you want clearly and take it like on sofa earlier.” The governor named the second thing that had come onto his mind immediately. He hadn’t even had to think for those two things. They had been there on his mind the minute he had agreed to return the favour.

 

 

 

 

His cock was throbbing and leaking pre-cum as his hand was continuing to stroke himself, waiting for Kario to turn around to him and to let Devon’s dick penetrate his tight throat. When the younger man then turned around to him he could see the dark brown eyes peering at his hard rod with hunger in their gaze and Ashfield immediately took his hand away from his cock when the young male was eagerly taking his hard length into his mouth, the hot wetness and the tongue coating it, the tip sinking into his throat, the tightness making the blond man gasp.

 

Devon’s fingers were burying themselves into the black mane of hair, his hips were thrusting into the other’s throat, intensely face fucking his boyfriend as he couldn’t hold onto himself. The moans of the man and the vibration against his dick made the pleasure even more intense and drove him crazier than he already was and it wasn’t too long that it took until his thrusts were getting irregular and he bucked up and growled deeply as he was ejaculating into Kario’s throat, pressing the black haired man’s head against himself, his muscles constricted and visible, his mouth gaping in the moment of orgasm.

 

He let go of his lover’s head and pulled his cock out of his throat as he realised he was probably choking the other uncomfortably, his chest sinking and rising, his breathing laboured and shallow. “Sorry.” He apologised for the rough face fuck and not being able to hold back. A little tired out he let himself sink down again, sitting in the hot spring, turning around, pulling Kario against himself, holding the man tight, kissing him breathlessly. “We should probably continue our way and head back to the mansion soon. We have to get up early after all tomorrow.” He reminded, stroking through the black wet hair.

Raising an eyebrow when Devon spoke he was wondering what the blonde meant when his boyfriend indicated that had been what was missing when talking about learning Latin. Kario thought about it for a moment and came to realize it was probably the enthusiasm that had been clear in his voice when indicating that he would love to learn French that hadn't exactly been present when talking about learning Latin. Fair enough. He could take the time to learn and become proficient in French before pursuing Latin if he decided to completely go through with it. Though he didn't see any reason not to learn that language as well. “That is true. However, you were taught Chinese from a young age, it's easier for a child to learn a new language than an adult especially if started early.” Kario responded. Sure Devon had learned Chinese even though he didn't poses a fascination for the Country's history or culture, but it was because Chinese had been taught to him at an early age. That wasn't to say people couldn't learn the language later on without that interest or fascination but it would probably have been more difficult. “But I will revisit the possibility of learning an Asian language down the road.” If he decided he was going to pursue Asian Culture and History he would certainly rethink learning one of the languages. “Maybe I'll learn Japanese… Since I could always just have a very handsome translator to help me out when Chinese is needed.” Kario teased rather playfully. Though it was definitely an appealing idea.

 

Kario was aware of the way Devon was watching his body as the other pressed each individual finger into his hip again clearly watching for his reaction to figure out which one was resting on that sensitive spot. When the right finger did press into his hip again the response was the same as before, a slightly shaky breath falling from his lips after. Kario quickly realized that telling Devon the spot worked on both hips wasn't quite smart as the older man brought his other hand to his hip and started pressing into the spot there as well. Feeling his body shudder again as he moaned softly, his body was suddenly overwhelmed with the pleasure that was flooding his system all at once. “Devon…” Kario groaned as he reached for his boyfriend, he quickly pulled the politician down into a heated kiss with what little strength he had. When their lips parted he was even more breathless looking up into his boyfriend's eyes with a rather heated gaze. “You should know my body by now. If you keep playing with it I'll need more attention.”

 

“I suppose.” He murmured in response. His mind going over what losing the election would mean for his boyfriend. Kario truly didn't care if he was dating the governor or not, it was just a title, not anything he was personally attached too. But at the same time he knew and understood how much this meant to the politician and knew Devon didn't want his political career to be over yet. “Would you be happy going back into economy though?” Kario asked not so much interested in them having sex in the government building right now but more interested in what would actually become of his boyfriend if he wasn't reelected. “I want you to be happy. With your personal life and career.”

 

A small smirk crossed his face when Devon said he would do his best to tease him more then. He didn't doubt that the blonde would and he knew he would be good at it.”I am sure you'll be really good at it.” He commented. As Devon was telling him what he would like him to do more of in return he wasn't surprised by the first one either, expecting it really since he knew how turned on his boyfriend was when he devotedly licked the cum from his hand but it had never occurred to him to lick it from his body as well. Kario made a mental note to start doing so and to just lick their mess off the blonde devotedly more often as there were plenty of times he could have previously. Even the next part wasn't entirely surprising as he remembered Devon mentioning that to him previously when he had rather bodly kissed the older man. Expressing that more when he wanted something especially when it came to sex was reasonable. “I'll be sure to work in being bolder and showing more confidence then. As for licking cum from your fingers and body, I can certainly get behind that.” None of those things would be particularly hard for him to do more of, and being more bold and confident when it came to sex could be applied outside of it as well to generally build his confidence.

 

 

Kario could feel his boyfriend's fingers burying themselves in his hair before his hips started thrusting. It made the whole thing a little easier for him as he just relaxed his jaw and allowed the movement of his boyfriend's hips to do most of the work. Though he still let his tongue come into play whenever he had the opportunity. It didn't bother him that the older man was being a bit rough, feeling his cock in his throat with every thrust. The movement wasn't uncomfortable for him, the irregularity in his thrusts was his first hint of his boyfriend's impending climax and he didn't have to wait for much longer before he was doing just that. Moaning softly around the man's length as Devon released into his throat. A moment later his hand releasing his head as he was pulling out, Kario's breathing was a bit labored again and he reached up to wipe away some of the drool that had escaped as the older man used his mouth from his chin.

 

Offering a smile he shook his head, “You don't need to apologize.” He replied, watching Devon sunk back into the water before an arm wrapped around him and he was pulled back into his lover's side. Returning the breathless kiss he rested his head on Devon's shoulder feeling the hand running through his hair as he was told that soon they should get back on their way as they had to get up early in the morning. “Alright.” Was the only response he gave as he let his eyes drift shut for a moment, still feeling content to just lie there and enjoy being close to his boyfriend again. After they rested a little while he finally pulled himself away before giving the blonde a deep kiss and standing up. “Let's get dressed then. So we can continue.” He commented holding his hand out for Devon to take it before he was stepping out of the hot spring.

 

Once they were both dressed and heading on their way again he had once more slipped his hand into Devon's their fingers intertwining once more. “I do really love your garden. Your whole place is amazing though.” He commented flashing a smile to his boyfriend as they made their way through the garden. His eyes were still excitedly looking around since he knew this was just another means of getting to know his boyfriend better.

[-Hideki-]

Ashfield was certainly glad that his lover was that fond of his garden and he’d make sure to show him what was left to see of it – and there was quite some places they hadn’t been to just yet - another time but for now Devon just wanted to head back inside as quickly as he could since his boxers and the tuxedo was sticking to his wet body and the wind was feeling cold, getting through his clothes as well. He didn’t waste much time back at the mansion, showering quickly and getting ready for bed and as soon as he was settled, and had turned the alarm clock on he was sinking into the softness of his mattress and exhaustion was hitting him, leading to the man closing his eyes. He had wanted to have some more fun with Kario initially but that had to wait since when the younger man was joining him in bed the blond was already asleep.

 

The alarm rang that early that it felt like he had not been asleep for long though and the man who was near forty years of age had trouble to open his eyes and to get out of bed as he really wasn’t feeling like it. It was with a lot of force and willpower that he sat himself up rubbing his eyes that felt as if someone had glued them close overnight, turning around, letting his legs dangle from the bed his feet hitting the clod ground. With his eyes still half closed his hand reached for Kario’s shoulder and he was gently shoving and patting it, telling the man to get up, hoping the other would not hate him for waking him up that crazy early and regret that he had agreed to accompany him to that farmer’s festival.

 

It took the shower to get Ashfield to wake up properly and to get going but even when he was fully dressed and was tying his tie he looked tired and the governor was unhappily looking at the dark circles under his eyes before he was pulling on the skin on his cheeks which probably could have been worse. He didn’t have any time to dwell on this though, nor had he time to have breakfast with Kario who had to wear what his mother had bought him because the clothes they had ordered weren’t there yet, since the tie was just sitting straight when the bell of the gate was already rung. “Are you ready!” he called for Kario, rushing down the stairs to open the gate and then the door. In front of it stood a broad security man but it was neither Michalski nor Smith, this man was paid by the state and not by his father and his attitude was completely different as he was acting extremely respectful towards the office that Devon held. “Good morning Governor Ashfield!” he greeted and gesticulated to the convoy of cars one could see in front of the gate. A large limousine and two SUV’s before and behind it, security men standing next to every car.

 

The blond man gave Kario an encouraging smile and gaze, taking the man’s hand leading him to the limousine, only letting go of his hand when the security man who stood in front of it was holding the door of the car open and Ashfield got inside. The door was closed immediately after them and Devon had barely sat down when the convoy was starting to move as they were in a hurry what one could notice immediately through the facial expression and tone of voice of the blond man’s adviser Stewart Cooper. The black haired was definitely not alone in the limousine with Devon. There was Cooper his adviser, a beautiful female around Ashfield’s age with dark brown skin, long straightened black hair, on point make up and expensive clothing whose name was Valentina and who was Devon’s speechwriter, then there was Clarence and Jason, a man in his early thirties with high-cheekbones, a strong jaw, fashionable caramel hair and seemingly flawless pale skin in a black turtleneck shirt who was the governor’s PR and fashion adviser and stylist who was a renowned hair- and make-up artist.

 

“Governor Ashfield here is your speech! I did a lot of research about farming and included some witty humour that makes it seem more casual for you.” Valentina informed him handing him the script with the speech his golden eyes hushing over the text - he had given her free hand on because Ashfield didn’t know shit about farming and had no opinion on it either - immediately when he thanked her but he couldn’t focus on that because Stewart, who was all hectic since they were delayed due to traffic was starting to speak. “After that whole gay brothel disaster you need to make a perfect impression on the country side since you lost most voters there. You need to be vital and dynamic and relatable and ….” He paused. “What is that!” he called out pointing onto Ashfield’s face. “Didn’t you sleep properly? Do something about that, he can’t look like that it will just cause rumours of sleepless nights or if he is getting tired and old.” Stewart prompted Jason who kept his calm. “Already on it.” The make-up artist said a bag of stuff lying next to him and in the next second Ashfield had a brush in his face, making it really difficult to read anything but then Jason suddenly paused and took a small strand of a few of Ashfield’s hairs into his hand. “Are that some grey hairs?” he asked and Devon’s heart sagged down to his knees. “What? No!” he exclaimed shocked. “It really is though.” Jason figured and mused:“Doesn’t matter, it makes you seem more mature and experiences and wise and hence trustworthy to the voters.” As he wanted to continue to do something with the governor’s face, who was now looking at him devastated. “Pull it out ! Pull it out for Christ’s sake!” he yelled at the man who raised an eyebrow. “Governor? Are you sure I ….” He didn’t know what to do now being asked something like that. “Yes. Pull it out I said.” And the man pulled the few grey hairs out making an “Ouch!” sound in the car as Devon was rubbing that side of his head now making his hair messy, meaning more work for Jason. “Grey hair… That’s too much before breakfast…” the politician complained feeling like going back to his mansion and pulling a pillow case over his head and hair but not like giving a speech pretending to know what he was talking about while he didn’t in front of a shit ton of people who probably only saw a whoremonger anyway.

 

A paper bag was then placed onto his lap and Clarence was smiling at him warmly and then gave him a mug of coffee next. “Those are some tuna sandwiches my wife made for you.” His old assistant said and Ashfield thanked him, taking one out to eat, handing the other over to Kario. And that was when Stewart Cooper for the first time got aware of who that young man was, paying mind and attention to him and he was pressing his fingers against the bridge of his nose. “Governor, I am certain you aren’t planning on bringing that boy along!?” the man worded it. “Of course I want him to accompany me.” Devon answered, his mouth full, his hand covering his mouth so that no one saw him chewing. “Well, I’d advise you not to. It won’t be helpful if you were to show yourself with this…” he was cut off by Devon whose mouth was now empty from any food. “He is accompanying me! It’s the tradition that the governor appears with his partner to this and not alone and he is my partner. The other governors did too and there is no difference. If anything I’m showing that this is not an affair, nothing obscene or superficial but that this is a serious relationship as I previously stated on TV just like those people’s relationships. People should know this.” the blond stated and Stewart shook his head. “That’s not the same! Those governors you are talking about went with their wives! Their female wives, wives are female!” Cooper tried to bring his point across, gesticulating wildly. “They did not bring some twenty years old college boy! This is entirely different! It’s not comparable.” He continued and except for Jason who had finished to cover the dark circles and make Devon appear fresher and more vital, kept working on Devon’s hair while the man was eating, everyone else looked at Ashfield and Kario rather curiously and awkwardly. “He is twenty-two!” the governor protested as making his boyfriend even younger than he actually was wasn’t appreciated. “Doesn’t make it better!” Cooper expressed and sighed. “Governor Ashfield, listen, we can drop him off at the next bus stop and he can go back to the dorm room he came from it will be better that way. We don’t want to shock your voters even more. The sight of you with another men, two men as a couple and then this drastic age gap, it’d weird them out, they’ll find this cringe worthy.” The adviser was getting blunter and Devon whom found the thought that people found them gross and cringe worthy somewhat hurtful was getting more stubborn. “He’ll stay. I’ll take him onto stage. And people will see that we are a normal couple and not cringy!” the politician insisted and Stewart sighed hearable, running his hand over his face, looking at the young man who was a thorn in his side before he turned to Jason who was done with Devon’s hair and about to put the stuff back into the bag.

 

“Can you do something with this boy? You worked for movies and theatres before didn’t you? Can you perhaps make him look roughly at least 15 years older that the sight of those two isn’t that offensive anymore?” he asked and hadn’t Devon stuffed his mouth full of tuna sandwich he would have said something but it was too full and he didn’t want to risk something falling out of his mouth. “That shouldn’t be a problem.” Jason said as he was examining Kario. “That’s quite a handsome one. Just like those models I worked with before.” The artist commented and smiled at the younger man. “Good morning, my name is Jason, I’m the governor’s PR and fashion adviser.” He introduced himself to the young man, offering his hand. “Since you’ll go on stage and have pictures taken and might appear on TV I’ll have to do some make-up for you. It’ll be completely natural, no one will be seeing that you’ll be wearing any of this.” he informed the other.

[Sathenus]

It had taken Kario a little longer than his boyfriend to finish getting ready for bed. By the time he was crawling into bed beside Devon he noticed that the older man was already asleep. A small smile appearing on his face as he watched the other for a moment, getting comfortable in the bed himself he curled up against Devon's side and let his eyes drift shut. Despite knowing they needed to get up early Kario had a rather difficult time falling asleep, just finding that he wasn't all that tired. By the time he finally fell asleep it had only felt like minutes before he felt a hand on his shoulder, shaking and patting it before he heard the familiar sound of his boyfriend's voice encouraging him to wake up. Mumbling something unintelligible he rolled away from the figure and nuzzled back into the pillows body falling still again. A few seconds passed before he peeked an eye open and spared the blonde a glance as Devon was making his way to the bathroom to shower and get dressed. He knew that he needed to get up and get ready himself, but had no motivation to do so. Not able to understand why they needed to get up so early for a famers festival.

 

While Devon was in the shower Kario took the chance to just lie in bed staring at the ceiling, even though he knew he could just get up and get in the shower with the other. He truly had no motivation this morning, as the blonde moved to get dressed he finally slipped out of bed and into the bathroom. Taking the quickest shower of his life washing his hair and his body rather quickly before he moved to wrap a towel around himself. He wasn't very enthusiastic about wearing any of the clothes that his boyfriend's mother had bought him but he realized there was currently no other option right now. Had had just finished buttoning his pants when he heard Devon calling to him asking if he was ready. “Almost!” Kario called back before he was slipping on his shoes and grabbing a shirt and making his way out of the room and towards the stairs.

 

Having just finished making sure his shirt was in place he started down the stairs not rushing it since he knew his luck with them in the past and not wanting to fall down them now. He hadn't even made it fully down the stairs when Devon had answered the door having only made it about halfway down at this point though he was joining the governor not long after. The encouraging look and smile he got oddly didn't help ease any of the anxiety he felt towards what they would be doing today. Knowing he was going out with his boyfriend not as Devon himself but as the governor and thus would be brought into the public's eye again. Not like it could really be avoided, but it did make his anxiety levels a bit high.

 

His hand being taken made him suck in a deep breath before allowing himself to be lead forward and towards the awaiting convoy. Slipping in beside him Kario instantly felt how tired he was againd and let his head shift to rest lightly against the politician's shoulder dark eyes moving towards the window and not paying much attention to the other people within the vehicle. When the woman spoke about his boyfriend's speech he barely spared her a glance, dark eyes glancing down at what the blonde now held. When one of the two men who Kario had never met before was speaking he finally lifted his head from Devon's shoulder and turned his gaze more fully to the window.

 

Hearing the sudden panic and distress in his boyfriend's voice was what drew his gaze from the window and back to the governor, reaching out he rested what he hoped was a reassuring hand on the older man’s thigh just as he was yelled for the man to pull them out. It wasn't surprising, he knew how the man felt about getting older and discovering grey hair so soon after made him understand the politician's response even more.

 

Other than the governor, Clarence was the only familiar face and it was appreciated to know another person in the vehicle helping to slightly eases his anxiety. Watching the older man take one of the sandwiches before handing him one, Kario took it but didn't start eating yet not quite hungry. It wasn't a surprise to him that it was at this point one of the men began to speak about him being present while the other was still busy with his boyfriend, getting him ready to be in front of so many people. Devon of course defended him saying he did want him to accompany him, though an audiable sigh came from the younger man as his gaze returned to the window as the two continued to discuss this matter and his presence. It was hard to hide the fact that people seemed to constantly just see him as something negative in Devon's life, as though his mere presence was to be avoided and discouraged.

 

It wasn't until he felt eyes on him that he looked away from the window meeting the man's gaze and knowing he still wasn't happy about his presence. At the mention of seeing about making him look at least fifteen years older he was sure that his displeasure at the idea showed clearly. “I'm not going to let you make me look older than I am.” Kario finally said sticking up for himself since Devon couldn't as his mouth was full with another bite of his sandwich. Even the comment about his appearance and how he reminded the man of the models he had worked with perviously didn't make him feel better that his age seemed to be one of the biggest problems.

 

Finally he introduced himself and the younger man was finally able to place a name with the new face. He took his hand introducing himself as well to remain polite, and yet at Jason's next words he turned his dark gaze to Clarence for a second before his eyes moved to and locked on Devon. Clearly he didn't like the idea, and he still didn't trust that they wouldn't attempt to make him appear older. There were quite a few things he wanted to say to his boyfriend right now, none of which he wanted to say in front of the others.

 

Kario wasn't really sure why but none of this had been what he had expected when agreeing to go to the famers festival with the governor. He didn't want any make-up put on him, natural or otherwise, and he didn't want people to keep acting like he was some kind of curse. He wanted the people, his boyfriend's voters, to see him for who he really was when at his lover's side and not as anyone else. No altercations to who he was like making him appear older, some natural touch-up he may tolerate but even that could be questionable.

 

“Why does my age matter so much?” He finally asked, though it was clear since his gaze didn't falter that he was speaking to Devon only, and that it was his boyfriend's opinion alone that he currently wanted. Not caring if it seemed rude, though maybes Clarence was the only other person he would accept an answer from right now. He was twenty-two and clearly of legal age, so what was such an issue? Even two men being together being a problem was hard for him to grasp, something he may never truly understand.

[-Hideki-]

Ashfield got why Kario took issue with the suggestion of making him appear older and at the same time, being a politician, knowing politics, knowing the public and societal norms and conventions he was also able to understand why Stewart wanted Jason to do that. His golden eyes wandered around in the limousine as he was taking another bite of the sandwich as he really was hungry and would have liked to sit at home or in the office and eat his breakfast in peace and quiet…. He really was old wasn’t he? Anyway he looked to the right just in the moment to see Cooper rolling his mud-green eyes. “Splendid. He acts like a stubborn child too. I have no time for this. We aren’t in grade school!” He remarked after Kario had made his disagreement to Jason making him look older very known.

 

Jason on the other hand smiled at the black haired male calmly and friendly, his blue eyes peering into the other male’s dark eyes. “I understand and I won’t do anything that you’re opposed to. However I’d suggest that you’d consider some make-up. There is a reason why actors and people who perform on stage or in front of a camera wear theatre make-up and that there are hair- and make-up artists such like myself! It might be an odd and unappealing idea to you to have something on your skin and the idea of make-up might cause some negative feeling within you but it is no big deal at all.” He explained. “Just think about it. We have time. It’s still quite a drive.” Jason winked and then turned back to Devon’s head.

 

Reading his speech, eating and drinking coffee Devon was not really paying close attention to what Jason was doing and what was with Kario’s make-up and he nearly didn’t realise it when the younger man was turning directly to him asking him why his age mattered that much. “Huh!” the governor made and he just swallowed down his food and wanted to tell him that to him it didn’t matter, except for it making him fear the other would leave him for someone younger one day but that fear had been nearly gone completely after Kario had admitted to have a preference for older men specifically what had been more reassuring to him as it probably should have been too when Stewart’s voice was already sounding.

 

“Listen, your age isn’t what matters so much. It’s not even an issue. You are not an issue.” He started out his explanation. “The issue is the relationship between you two or rather that there is a gap that reaches to frigging China between your age and the governor’s age. It’s the age gap that is the problem! Why? Because Governor Ashfield isn’t a rich faceless name, a person who doesn’t stand in the spotlight and can keep himself a boy toy to entertain himself! He is a politician. And a politician needs to be relatable to the people, trustworthy enough for them to want him to represent them. They need to identify with him. And if he shows up in front of his voters with you, a man approximately twenty years younger than himself, this is a sight that will throw the voters off, it is unrelatable, weird and unaesthetic , meaning distasteful to them. What they will see is a middle aged man around their age having an intimate relationship with someone the age of their sons who are in college. And that’s what they are thinking when they see this and it will be associated with being gross, wrong or at least questionable. Go out shopping together where the Governor isn’t known and people will ask you if your daddy or uncle pays for you because it’s your birthday or something along those lines.” Cooper spoke.

 

“That you are naïve enough to not know this, to not think about this, to not understand this, makes it even worse and is part of the problem. You have no idea about life, no idea about how politics and how a society and people work. You are centred around your own personal feelings and standpoints where there is no issue with this age gap and think that people will see it from your perspective but they don’t and won’t, they see something different as to what you see when you think of this relationship. “he continued. “So you want to be with an older, experienced man who is further in life, you want to be with a man of power, you think you can handle it and belong into that world, then suck it up like an adult and do what you have to and what is necessary to support your man with his career instead of acting like a stubborn little diva who isn’t ‘going to let anyone make him appear older than he is’ because if you want to be a part of this campaign you’ll do your best to make him get re-elected as we all do since months. And in case you don’t know this yet, many of our voters are rather conservative; your man is the Republican candidate!” Stewart reprimanded.

 

And this was going Devon a little too far. “Don’t talk to him like that again!” he demanded and Stewart turned towards the governor. “I’m sorry Governor Ashfield but all of us literally worked our arses off, we are trying to do damage control after that scandal and we want to make you win. And I won’t let this boy destroy what we’ve all worked for. I can’t force you to drop him off at the next bus stop, if you want to take him I have to accept it as you make the decisions but he has to cooperate, act mature, smile politely and professionally, pay attention to the people, act interested and speak in favour of family values and it’d be best if he talked about wishing to marry you and adopting babies painting the picture of the traditional family together with you or otherwise in addition to what I have already stated before the people will see some young gold-digger who is with you for your money and power and an old rich man who has gotten himself some young man for sex and his body and that won’t help to get you back up in the polls again.” Cooper told him clearly and bluntly and Devon stared at him wordlessly for a moment.

 

Stewart was in his late fifties and he had been a lobbyist for the Ashfield Corporation before Devon had been send into politics by his father. His father then had send the former lobbyist into politics with the blond to give advice and use his inside information about other figures to their advantage. Everyone of them had formally worked with the Ashfield Corporation. Valentina had been one of the head marketing and communication managers and Jason had worked with models and actors in adverts for the Corporation. His father had not wanted to let him work with the campaign because he had been sure that a man with such a profession had to be gay, hence he had wanted to make Devon work with a female hair- and make-up artist but Jason had pointed out that he did better work than her and had told Andrew Ashfield that he was not gay, showing him a picture of him and his girlfriend at the time, who had not been his girlfriend but his ex-boyfriend in drag but the guy had been good enough at drag that Andrew Ashfield had bought it and Jason who had found it unfair that the other had wanted to discriminate him for his male gender and being gay had gotten the job.

 

The uncomfortable silence in the car was broken by Jason’s voice who was fondling the golden blond hair of the governor. “I like your hair.” He said absent minded. “You know what I was thinking this whole time…”the man said sounding deep in thought revealing that he had not listened and didn’t care about any of the drama between Stewart and Kario. “Since you changed your style from shaven to three-days beard we definitely need to alter your hairstyle! It should be a lot shorter than that. This really doesn’t fit; I don’t like how this looks. We definitely have to do that before you appear on that farmer’s festival. They are farmers but they still have eyes.” The man spoke and Devon nodded. “Do we have enough time in the guesthouse before?” he asked. “Should be possible if Jason works efficiently.” Stewart told them. “I always work efficiently and professionally.” Jason said almost offended but Stewart didn’t get to say anything anymore because Devon who had put his reading glasses on a while ago when Stewart had talked to Kario because he struggled otherwise was showing Valentina a piece of paper with pictures of five different pigs the names of the animals written under them. “How am I supposed to tell them apart to announce which one won?” he asked and he was totally serious. “One has a dot behind the ear; the other has a really pale nose …. It might be the photo but one is squinting…” she tried. “I’m sorry I can’t really tell them apart myself.”

[Sathenus]

Being referred to as a stubborn child wasn't appealing and he certainly hadn't meant to come across that way. Kario had a sneaking suspicion that anything he said that contradicted what the older man wanted from him would be seen as him being some sort of stubborn child or diva, even if it wasn't intended. That didn't make him any happier, it only made it easier for him to realize that they probably wouldn't get along very well or see eye to eye. Unhappy with what was said he found his gaze returning to the window and wishing that the issues people kept finding in him and with him would just disappear. Though he understood that wasn't how the world worked and that such things occurred within everyone's lives and not just his own.

 

Jason on the other hand didn't seem to be phased by his refusal to be made to look older than he was and it was a relief to think he hadn't gained yet another person with some kind of issue with him. Instead the man just calmly and nicely asked him to consider a little make-up, explaining their was a reason why actors and people who performed on stage or in front of cameras wore theatre make-up and why hair and make-up artists like him were a thing. Kario could understand that and get that Jason had a point, such people and things existed for a reason and we're used for a reason. “Fair enough. I suppose… it can't hurt.” Kario finally said after considering it for a moment even though make-up still wasn't appealing to him. Kario could respect Jason's opinion especially with how he was rather nice about it explaining why it was in a sense necessary.

 

His gaze which had been locked on Devon waiting for his boyfriend to give him some sort of response was torn away from the governor and back to the other man when he was speaking answering instead. He wanted to argue when he said that he wasn't an issue and neither was his age as obviously one of those things had to be the issue. Being told the issue was in fact their relationship and the age gap that was between them wasn't pleasing at all. It also still sounded as though his age was part of the problem, considering he had mentioned the age gap between him and the governor. What was said next was hurtful and his dark gaze darted back to the blonde, he didn't see himself as a boy toy to entertain Devon and he hoped that wasn't how the politician saw him either. The more he spoke the more he hated what was being said, Kario didn't think that going shopping with Devon somewhere that they didn't know the man was the governor would end in them thinking his boyfriend was his father or uncle. Kario particularly didn't like the use of 'Daddy’ especially when they had already had a moment when the blonde had come across as fatherly previously in one of their conversations. Not to mention he wasn't interested in that type of dynamic with his boyfriend.

 

His dark gaze made it's way back to the window and he felt that familiar shattering feeling whenever he was reprimanded for something. But he knew the other was right, he didn't know how politics or society worked, didn't know what went into such things. At the same time he didn't think he was centered around his own personal feelings and standpoint liking to think he was open but he had been defensive and clearly against being made to look older. That was something he felt he had the right to feel though, but maybe that was the problem. The ache was growing the more he was speaking, and being called a diva still wasn't helping, Kario didn't want to do anything that would hurt Devon's chance of getting reelected and he was sure that Devon knew he would never deliberately sabotage any chance he had. Being told that the older man was the Republican candidate didn't really make a difference because he already knew that, he knew what party Devon represented and had come to terms with and accepted it. He didn't need to be told that again in a way that was meant to get a rather harsh point across. He understood just fine, and kept his gaze averted, on the window and the scenery outside.

 

What little part of him had previously had the strength to speak up for himself had vanished and he now tried to appear small and insignificant again. Anything to take the attention away from himself and allow someone else to take the spotlight. Devon coming to his aide by demanding that the other didn't speak to him like that again didn't help though. Kario was ready to just disappear, but there was something that caught his attention in what was said even if his demeanor hadn't changed. Who had said he didn't want to marry Devon or adopt kids with him? At the same time adopting children with Devon was a topic they had said they would revisit a year from now, it certainly wasn't something that he was ready to commit to yet even for the public. He had already expressed his willingness to marry Devon, and that wouldn't change. The governor was someone he felt moved despite everything else, and was someone he wanted to spend the rest of his life with.

 

Remaining silent he didn't look to anyone or even move his eyes remaining either down or on the window. Anywhere but another person in the hopes that he would be ignored and spared no attention. At least, until he heard Devon ask about telling something apart while showing the woman a paper. She had started to try to explain how to tell them apart only to admit that she didn't know how herself. “Can I see?” He asked, his voice was soft but carried in what was now a mainly silent space. Kario had a nack for telling animals apart since he had such a strong love for them and since this was a farmers festival he figured they were talking about animals especially at the mention of a dog behind the ear and a really pale nose.

 

He waited patiently and when the paper was shown to him he looked over the pictures of the pigs. “It's easy. All five pigs have subtle features telling them apart. From a particular expression on it's face to how it holds itself.” He mused before leaning back against the seat and showing the pictures to Devon again. Pointing to one of the pigs he pointed out how it's ears were, “This one for example has an ear that is held a bit higher than the other as if that one is always more alert. This pig is a bit shorter than the others when you look closer. There is a slight difference in the shape of the snout of this one.” He pointed out the differences in all the pigs though he wasn't sure if Devon would remember these differences when the time comes to announce the winner or remember which of these differences went to which pig.

[-Hideki-]

After Jason had finished what he could do in the car for Ashfield he turned to Kario who had thankfully agreed to let him do his make-up in the end, getting the stuff ready he needed for the dark haired male who had a different skin tone than Devon’s absolute paleness that even seemed a little rosy because the bloodvessels were shining through. “Young man?” the artist addressed the other who was disinterestedly staring out of the window, almost compulsory as if fixated to not pay anyone any mind and to not look at the people around himself. That led to a snort from Stewart. “He can’t take criticism. He’s pouting like a ….” The adviser started but he was cut off before he could finish his sentence. “Enough Stewart!” Devon barked at the man with a dark glare and authority in his expression. “Quit that bullshit immediately I don’t want any of that around. I’m with him and I meant what I’ve said about me and him on television and you will have to accept this as my feelings are not going to change or just disappear. Hence I want you to work together professionally and make this go smoothly. There is no place for bad blood between any of us. There is enough thrown at us from the outside already.” The governor made that clear before he turned towards his boyfriend.

 

“And you love…” he started. “I ask you to pay attention to your surroundings and the people around you and to show a little interest in what is happening because otherwise you will make the impression of being incredibly arrogant and rude to the voters and they will hate you and tear you apart on social media. I don’t want that! I want them to like you! And not only because it’s good for my campaign but because I love you and I know what a great person you are and I wouldn’t want people to get the wrong impression about you, thinking that you are a jerk who thinks he’s too good for them because you ignore everyone and everything around yourself.” The blond told him and sighed when Jason had already put some colour onto the brush. “Can I now?” he asked the young man with a smile on his lips.

 

And as Jason was starting to do Kario’s make-up Ashfield and Valentina were trying to figure out how to tell the pigs apart when the governor turned around his head surprised to hear his boyfriend say he wanted to see the pictures. “Sure.” Devon smiled, shoved his glasses back up and handed the other the piece of paper with the pictures on it, looking at it together with the black haired. What followed left quite the impression on him and Valentina too as Kario pointed out things in pigs that neither of the two of them had been able to really see or consider and the man seemed to actually be interested in the animals. “I have a terrific idea.” Devon then said smiling at his boyfriend. “How about you announce the winner pig and say a few words about pig farming?” he suggested handing the man another piece of paper with some notes and what the woman had written as that part of the governors speech. “You seem a lot better and more interested in that than I am and I’m sure the people will like to see some real enthusiasm about this and that you actually have a connection to those animals. We can integrate you more into the program and you can interact with the animal farmers and so on. Valentina will gladly assist you and help you out if you don’t know how to go about it.” Ashfield said and the woman his own age smiled and reached out her hand. “Valentina Jones. Speechwriter. Previously marketing and communication manager at Ashfield Corporation. I’m happy to work with you.” She introduced herself when Jason was starting to style Kario’s hair back, giving him a more classical look.

 

The rest of the drive took them three hours, what explained why they had to leave at 5am in the morning. The convoy stopped in front of a large farm house that was their guesthouse and the engine had not even been turned off when they were heading out of the limousine and into the house where Ashfield was placed onto a chair in front of a large mirror in one of the bedrooms, a plastic tunic thrown over him so that no hairs would get onto his suit while Jason was taking care of Devon’s haircut while people were rushing in and out and the carpet was soon covered with hair since when the hair- and make-up artist had said short he had meant short, at least a lot shorter than Devon’s hair had previously been. Looking into the mirror there was no doubt that the haircut looked a lot better with his beard and everything and the man had definitely been right to suggest this however the short sides revealed grey patches! Not merely a few hairs but patches of hair that had turned grey and that was like a hit into his stomach. “I can shoot myself. It’s over anyway.” The politician said depressed when he looked into the mirror and touched the places where the hair was grey.

 

“Rubbish!” Jason exclaimed rolling his eyes, running his fingers through the freshly cut short hair of the governor. “You look amazing, this makes your features look so much better. You surely are a handsome man.” He stated. “It’s grey! My hair is grey already. How long do I still have until I’m completely grey and look old like my father!” Devon complained and Jason sighed. “You turn thirty-nine Governor and you are a really attractive man and look your age. There is nothing wrong with those grey strands. They don’t make you ugly but if you insist I can dye your hair but there won’t be enough time before the festival. Even though I’d recommend you not to dye your hair in the first place! You are attractive as you are.” The artist told him and then pulled the governor up from the seat, turned him around, freed him from the tunic, threw that onto the chair before he pushed him forward towards Kario who the politician rather not wanted to see how much grey hair had been revealed there. But Jason stood right behind him, his hand on his jaw, turning his face straight towards his younger boyfriend’s. “I’m sure he’ll agree.” The man said. “What do you say? Isn’t he handsome? A hot mess of a man? He doesn’t need any hair dye does he!”

 

Then the door was torn open and Stewart stormed in. “They want you to participate in riding a plastic bull. I tried to decline but you’ll still be asked….” He paused midsentence looking at the three men, Jason still standing directly behind Ashfield. “What on Earth are you doing? You can have a threesome later on; you were just supposed to cut his hair.” He barked.

[Sathenus]

Instinctively Kario turned his gaze towards Jason when he was addressed not even considering the motion, their eyes locking. He hadn't exactly expected the man to have gotten ready to do any makeup on him so quickly, but it was probably a good thing since it meant they could get it done and over with before he had second thoughts and decided against it. His gaze was drawn from Jason though when the other man began speaking again, Kario wanted to argue and say he could take criticism just fine when he was treated like a child or called a boy toy but he didn't have to as Devon was already cutting the man off. As the governor turned to him Kario cocked his head slightly to the side and listened his dark gaze locked with his boyfriend's. This tone was one he could respond to and that didn't make him feel like it was just another person who seemed to hate him. Granted he already knew Devon didn't hate him, which was a win in general with how everyone else seemed to see him right now.

 

“Farming is interesting.” Kario stated when he was told to take some interest in his surroundings when they got there and in the people. He wasn't about to ignore the people or things around him when they arrived, he may not like Stewart -finally knowing his name thanks to Devon stepping in as clearly the older man had no intention of making that introduction himself- but he had nothing against the people they would be seeing and meeting at the farmers festival. Those people he actually had an interest in and wanted to see, he was curious about farming and the animals and other aspects of their lives.

 

As he was given the paper with the pictures of the pigs he couldn't help but look over Devon with a small smile eyes moving over him. The politician was attractive to him in general,but he really did like the way he looked with his glasses on. Managing to tear his gaze away from his boyfriend and focus on the pictures he had pointed out the differences that he had noticed in the pigs. Eyes moving back up to Devon just as the blonde said he had a terrific idea, making a curious look cross his face. Being told that Devon thought he should announce the winning pig and say a few words about pig farming only for the blonde to give him another paper that Kario instantly looked over noticing the notes and that it contained that part of the blonde’s speech. The thought made his anxiety rise again, not sure any sort of speech or such attention was something he was ready to face. “I don't know…” He mumbled as his gaze returned to the paper with that part of the speech hoping looking it over and reading it would help ease his anxiety towards what had just been suggested.

 

Kario did look to the woman as she introduced herself and figure he probably really could use her help if he was to go through with this. Trying to occupy himself with something else he looked back to the paper with the pictures of the pigs deciding to focus on learning their names to make all of this easier. Because he loved the blonde he'd do his best to do this, especially if it made these people more at ease with him, or with them. Anything to improve the older man's chances of getting reelected, especially if it proved a point that he could and would back his man up and do anything for him and his career. Especially since Devon was so supportive when it came to him and whatever future he had, encouraging him to go to college and to enter a career field that really interested him.

 

The next three hours was spent with him restlessly shifting in his seat and going from once again watching the scenery outside the window to absently admiring his boyfriend. When they finally arrived he followed them though at this point his attention was on Valentina who he finally decided to accept some help from in regards to what the politician had suggested determined to prove a point to himself if no one else. Constantly hearing how others saw him was starting to make him question himself and whether he was good enough for the governor, or good for him in general. It was a chance for him to prove to himself that he wasn't what everyone kept saying about him and that he was able to be part of his boyfriend's political life as well.

 

He hadn't been paying attention to Devon and Jason while the politician was getting his haircut though he looked up when the two men approached him. Kario was sure that the sudden fire in his eyes at the sight of the older man was very obvious, Devon was already sexy and attractive but this new haircut really did go with the beard he had been growing and he found him even more sexy now. “Absolutely not!” Kario replied stunned when he was asked if Devon needed hair dye, “Why on Earth would you want to dye your hair? You're hot as hell.” The last part was met by Kario's eyes raking over his boyfriend and finding him extremely attractive. Suddenly he became aware of his own body and it's desires and needs again, his mind growing so easily distracted, he was about to lean up to catch his lover's lips in a kiss when the door suddenly slammed open.

 

Startled his head snapped towards the door and landed on Stewart who was talking about how he tried to get Devon out of riding a plastic bull though Kario had to admit that would certainly be a sight he had to see. What the man said next made him raise an eyebrow in question before his gaze moved back to Devon and Jason. Was that what it seed like was happening between them? "Threesome?" He questioned not truly getting how Stewart could jump to or even say that. Wiping that thought aside and shaking his head he decided to finish what he had been about to do previously before being interrupted and leaned up to give Devon a quicker kiss than originally intended. “You look perfect just the way you are. Don't dye your hair, love.” He murmured before taking a small step back. “As for you riding a plastic bull… I think you'd be great at it. It would be a good way to connect with the people as well.” That was his own thought even if it may not seem very professional. But he made a mental note to find a way to get Devon to do so at some point, somehow.

[-Hideki-]

That fire in his lover’s eyes when he looked at Ashfield and the desire already bordering on arousal that was to see paired with the clear refusal of the idea that the governor needed hair dye made him less tense about the discovery of how parts of his golden-blond hair had turned grey as the young man was still obviously attracted to him and found him desirable with the grey hair. At the man not understanding why he would want to dye his hair Devon opened his mouth, pointed at the grey sides of his hair and mumbled something about ‘grey hair’ and ‘looking old’ but the remaining concerns he had had were wiped away by his boyfriend telling him that he looked hot as hell while the black haired male’s dark eyes were undressing the governor, making a smile that soon turned into a smirk appear on the billionaire’s face.

 

“See, I told you so.” Jason stated accentuating that his professional opinion had proved itself correct once more and that he didn’t have this job and didn’t get paid that much for a man of his profession without a reason. “Yes, you were. Thank you.” The blond said making the hair and make-up artist smile at the two of them. “You’re very welcome Governor!” he said, patting Devon’s shoulder with the hand that wasn’t on his jaw just when Kario leaned up to him to kiss him as the door was opened.

 

It was indeed odd that Stewart jumped to the conclusion that they were about to get it on in a threesome, granted Jason’s crotch was touching his arse and Kario was leaning upwards, but it really was an innocent situation they were in and his younger lover expressed the confusion about the adviser’s assumption that Ashfield felt by questioning. Jason turned around to meet Stewart’s gaze then though and the man smiled cheekily. “Come on Stewie, you’re just jealous because your heterosexual arse is stuck married to that old prudish hag who won’t consider a threesome and whom you aren’t even attracted to anymore and your mistress is stressing you out and being uncooperative sexually as well. You’d wish you’d get the amazing sex we get.” he got back at the older man and Stewart blushed slightly and screwed up his nose. “You were more bearable when you still unconvincingly pretended to be straight jackass.” The man said grumbling making the stylist laugh. “It wasn’t that unconvincing. I was just myself and you all still bought it for some months.” He said and Cooper shook his head. “We knew after three weeks or so when you started to say weird things when we went out into that restaurant.” The adviser pointed out. “I didn’t say anything there that would have given me away.” The man found and Stewart’s mud-green eyes looked at him. “When Matt complemented that chick’s attire and remarked how hot she was you said you liked her hair and her facial structure and that she should consider curling her hair and colouring the hair tips light-blue.” He reminded the younger. “So? It could totally have been due to my profession and my professional eye.” He jested. “Yeah… but you also stared at the waiter’s arse and even turned around when he walked away with that lusty gaze when you had had a few drinks.” Cooper said. “Touché! But damn that arse was amazing. And I got his number too.”

 

The conversation amused Devon who too had not been quite sure whether Jason had been straight or had just convinced his father that he was somehow when he had first met him but the more time he had spend with him the more it had gotten obvious to him that he had been a pretender just like himself and that it too had been his father who had made him pretend for his career. In that sense they did have this in common, just that Jason’s career had not depended on it and that he had already gotten the job anyway. The amused smile changed into an endearing one when he was kissed by his boyfriend and the governor returned the quick kiss, taking Kario’s face between his hands when he heard Stewart cough. “I said no threesome now. And quit on the kissing during the festival will you.” He reprimanded and Ashfield rolled his eyes.

 

“About that plastic bull…” Cooper started when the black haired had been faster and was already talking to the governor about it pointing out how he found that he thought Ashfield would be great in that and that this would be a good chance to bond with the people. Devon, who knew he was not good at something like that, didn’t think this was a good idea at all and he turned to Stewart forming a ‘No’ with his lips. “I wouldn’t have approved anyway. I’ll see that no one will ask this, otherwise say you’ve hurt yourself during a work-out and your doctor forbid this kind of activity for a few months. You can let the boy do it instead if you want.” The blond then turned towards Kario. “You don’t have to do that either. I really am no good at riding though. I fell down more than I stayed on the horse when I tried horse riding with Sven back then.” he told him and he really was hopeless in that regards and had already embarrassed himself in the past, he knew that much and back then it had been normal horse riding.

 

In university some guy from his class, a rival of Ashfield’s, had invited him to play polo against him at the end of the summer break in his club in England and Devon had told him yes because he hadn’t wanted to seem like he was backing down but the young Devon Ashfield had never even sat on a horse before, nor had he wanted to because the prospect of sitting on something that had its own head hadn’t seemed reliable or a good idea, hence, when he had spend the break at Sven’s they had driven to Sven’s uncle’s for two weeks who had owned a stable in Münster to teach the blond how to ride and how to play polo and much to Devon’s dismay Sven’s horrible brother had been already there because he had wanted to impress that woman he had been after who had loved horses. Hence when Devon had realised he absolutely had no talent for horse riding he too had been ridiculed by Jens for it, especially when he had tried to get onto the horse but had fallen back down on the other side right onto his arse, having to endure the guy making fun of him as an unsophisticated, clumsy idiot in front of the Hungarian woman named Ilona he was dating. Even doing stuff like asking Devon geography questions to entertain her in hope he’d turn out to really be uneducated and oblivious about the world around him but Devon had always aced geography and just like Jens been to elite facilities from kindergarten on.

 

The next moment Stewart’s phone was ringing and the man was on his way out of the room again, leaving the three of them there and Jason laughed. “I never actually had a threesome. I’m not even promiscuous. I don’t fit the stereotypes at all.” The man admitted, still chuckling. It made Ashfield feel a little awkward. “Neither did I.” he lied and apparently not decently because Jason’s chuckling turned into laughter again. “My, governor! I wouldn’t have expected that of you! Quite the wild one huh?” he joked toying with the man’s hair again, rearranging some strands while Devon was awkwardly sucking on his bottom lip now. He hadn’t only had one threesome. The first he had had during his university years after he had gone out with Sven and some other guys in Amsterdam and he had hooked-up with one Dutch and one German guy afterwards. The other’s had then followed during his antics when he had first entered the business world and lived a jet set life. He had been a young guy with a shit ton of money and a private jet, not spending too much time at one place and that had given him a lot of opportunities and had made this kind of thing really convenient and he had slept around barely able to resist any handsome and attractive guy. He had seen them and he had wanted to have them and he had gotten what he wanted and then left. He certainly had not been a responsible gentleman if he thought about it now. But it too brought rise to the question if he would manage to stay strong in the long run if he would lose the election and would go back to that lifestyle. He had managed when he had gotten that hooked on Jeff, he had never cheated on him so he probably was good, wasn’t he? Yes, he was, he convinced himself.

[Sathenus]

Stewart cough was what drew his attention away from Devon, though a bit unwillingly hearing the man state again how he had said no threesome right now. Sighing Kario just loosely wrapped his arms around his lover and enjoying their closeness while he had the chance. Though his boyfriend's advisor was speaking again telling them to quit with the kissing during the festival, this caused Kario to pout for a moment before he turned back to Devon. “One more kiss to hold me over then.” Kario mused before he was catching the politician's lips in one last kiss. A bit unwillingly he stepped away after putting a little space between them, though the fire in his eyes had yet to dwindle and he still very much would prefer to be close to the older man.

 

Once again Kario could feel himself want to complain when Stewart again referred to him as 'boy’ though he, unlike his boyfriend, didn't have any complaint to trying his luck on riding a plastic bull. It sounded like fun, and if it would help build a connection with the people then it wouldn't hurt. He doubted he would be any good at it himself, but at least attempting to do it would probably leave enough of a good impression, at least that was what he was hoping. “Sure, I'll give it a shot, could be a lot of fun.” Kario replied with a shrug. If he was already going to face his anxiety once to give this speech then he could face it again to do something much more interesting and hopefully improve the Governor's standing at the same time.

 

Watching as Stewart's phone started ringing he watched the man leave before his attention was grabbed by Jason who decided to comment on the fact that he had never had a threesome before. Devon commenting that neither had he made him raise an eyebrow not buying that by the way the older man had said it, apparently he wasn't the only one who wasn't believing Devon as Jason was laughing and speaking again. This caused a small smirk to appear on his face reaching up to run his fingers along the blonde's jawline while he admired the man he loved. “Hmm, I can't say that I am surprised that you have experienced a threesome before, though I am certainly curious. What else have you done that I don't know about yet?” He asked extremely curious about other aspects of his lover's sex life that he didn't know about yet. He wanted to know everything about Devon, and found that these were important parts of who he was, even if he didn't do such things anymore.

 

Unfortunately it didn't seem like they had much time to discuss these matters as they had to make their appearance and get the festival going. That didn't stop him from admiring the politician for another moment before they were leaving the guesthouse. Kario made sure he behaved himself and did as the blonde had previously mentioned, being aware of his surroundings. However, he didn't have to feign interest in the people or the festival as it really did interest him and as things passed and his boyfriend gave his speech, the younger man had given himself that internal pep talk he needed to not get nervous when it came to announce the winning pig and speak a little about pig farming though he still wasn't a hundred percent sure he was the best person to be doing this part.

 

Managing to push his anxieties aside he found that once he could get past the initial fear it was just as easy for him to announce the winning pig and give a little speech. All he had to do was get his mind to focus on a place that was calming to him, like a happy place that allowed him to leave his fear and anxiety behind. Kario was finding the farmers festival to be quite entertaining and fun, he truly enjoyed seeing the different animals and though he felt overwhelmed by the amount of people he did his best to hide it.

 

The more time they spent at the farmers festival the more Kario was looking forward to returning to the mansion and getting to relax with Devon. Especially since he was aware that he could only be so affectionate towards his lover when in the public's eye. Which was a bit disappointing as he would have loved to be a bit more of himself and not what he knew was expected of him. Deep down he hated having to restrain himself because of the party how boyfriend represented and the way see voters saw them and their relationship. It sucked, and he wished people could be more tolerant considering they like his boyfriend's policies before they knew he was gay. The knowledge shouldn't change anything as the blonde's political views hadn't changed, he was still the politician they knew. Or at least Kario saw it that way, and he probably would continue to see it that way.

 

Catching a moment with his boyfriend he flashed a smile, “So I take it convincing you to go on a horse riding trip in Ireland would be out of the question considering your earlier comment in the guest house in regards to riding a plastic bull?” He had always wanted to go horseback riding and wanted to see the beautiful Irish countryside, a dream of his was to do both. But he could understand if Devon didn't want to go horseback riding and wouldn't force him to do so. There would be other ways to enjoy the beauty if he could even get Devon to agree to an Ireland trip to begin with. “There are plenty of beautiful places in the world that I'd love to see and experience with you.” He commented flashing a smile.

[-Hideki-]

Devon apparently wasn’t convincing neither of the two other men in the room of his innocence, not the hair- and make-up artist and not his lover who almost seductively ran his fingers over Ashfield’s jaw line expressing how it wasn’t surprising that the blond male apparently had had a threesome in the past and that he was curious as to what else the governor had done he didn’t know about yet. “I don’t know what you two are talking about.” The billionaire said his golden eyes peering into Kario’s, his face looking innocent, too innocent although he knew that around him everyone was aware that Kario wasn’t a college student but that the accusations Devon discounted that he had been to a brothel were actually true and some - and some meant Stewart and Clarence - also knew about his past as what some people would have described as a player, not that this information was a shock for Jason either. He had enough experience with people, too much experience with men from that societal class to be surprised by that.

 

There was no time for follow up questions though as he was hurried out of the door, out of the house and into the car again to drive to the nearby small-town where the festival was taking place. It stretched throughout the whole town and all the farmers from the area and even some from further away were present. It was crowded, loud, a lot of food and attractions for adults as well as some stuff like pony riding and a petting zoo for kids. There were different stages but those at this point had been all empty as the events hadn’t started yet. Only around the main stage there were already people waiting and that was where they were heading to, where Ashfield would give his speech to open the festival in a while before Stewart would guide him through all the appointments he had and the events he had to attend.

 

The atmosphere had been weird when he had gone up there together with Kario and his homosexuality, the media’s accusations as well as the presence of another man, a much younger man on top of that, as their governor’s romantic partner was creating a weird tension; it was the elephant in the room. No one said something about the elephant, no one yelled like those protestors in front of the government building but that elephant was clearly there. Hence the blond decided to improvise and to address this issue before he’d start with the regular speech Valentina had written for him. Ashfield casually, as if he was not totally sweating into his suit and as if his nerves weren’t flickering about this whole thing, introduced Kario and spoke about how he had recently met the man and he had fallen in love with him, outright denying the whole brothel issue this time, claiming it had been a hotel room and making the whole thing about privacy and condemning how his boyfriend had gotten pulled into it before talking about the importance of commitment and how much he wanted a family to show that their family values aligned and that he too, like every man, wanted his partner and family protected and out of harm’s way and that the treatment of the media had been not only unfair and cruel but also angered him.

 

Seemingly a lot of the people were satisfied with that and nodded their heads in agreement, others seemed still sceptic, some didn’t care about him being gay in the first place and if he had to choose his favourite voters he’d have chosen those who didn’t care and who wanted to hear about the farming already and for those he started with the actual speech.

After that the farmer’s festival seemed to be going like every year just that he wasn’t alone this time and Kario was integrated into the interaction with the people too. Valentina had done a good job preparing the young man for that because it was going rather smoothly and the other too was shaking a lot of hands, even when the time came to talk on a stage and announce the winning pig of the pig farmer’s contest. It even made Devon proud that the other was handling all of this that well and was managing to go through with all of this.

 

When they finally had some time between events in the afternoon and were standing in a row to buy some food his lover was giving him a cute smile, telling him that he took it that convincing him to go on a horse riding trip in Ireland was out of question. It made Ashfield chuckle and nudge his elbow into the younger man’s side. “Well, with me on the back of a horse we’d not get far anyway.” He jested.”But I wouldn’t rule that out. If you’d like to go on a horse riding trip in Ireland there’d still be possibilities for us to go there. We could go with Sven, the guy can ride like a professional and you and him could ride to a gathering place we determine and I could enjoy the amazing landscapes driving after you in one of my cars. Or by that opportunity buy another car and drive after you with that.” He suggested and he didn’t see anything wrong with that idea. They’d probably have a great time in Ireland together, just that Ashfield wouldn’t sit on a living creature as a means of transportation.

 

The blond man looked around himself to check whether Stewart was to see anywhere before he laid his arm around Kario’s hip for a moment and leaned over, his lips nearly touching the young man’s ear. “Did I tell you how proud I am of you for how you’ve handled the speech you gave? If not, I’m really proud of you.” He whispered into his ear, a wide smile on his thin lips before he quickly retreated again being the next in line to get the food. As he stood there he checked what the place offered and his mouth watered already. His mother would be completely disgusted and hence as a child he had never been allowed to have something like this. Most of the foods were either fried or contained a shit ton of cheese or were fried and contained a shit ton of cheese at the same time and Devon knew that his stomach, not used to those kind of foods at all, would not thank him later but he didn’t care. He never did when he came to that festival hence it was always the same old game and he ordered quite some of the stuff anyway. “And what would you like to eat?” he asked the black haired, the lady who sold the food smiling at them.

[Sathenus]

"That's cute." Kario murmured upon Devon saying he didn't know what they were talking about. The younger man really did find it cute that his boyfriend was trying to deny what was obvious to the other two men in the room. It got his mind going, curious about the other things the politician had experienced in the past, though he knew now was not the time to press the matter and try to get more out of him. He'd just have to remember this for another time later on when it was just the two of them, figuring he'd stand a better chance of the blonde telling him such matters if it was just the two of them. For now Kario let it go though just giving the older man a small smile and letting his fingers make their way back down his jaw before he allowed his hand to fall back to his side so that the governor could finish getting ready to open up the festivities of the farmers festival.

 

Despite the feeling he was met with and the obvious tension throughout those present Kario did his best to keep any of his anxiety from showing on his face. Something that wasn't entirely easy for him to do, considering he wasn't used to hiding most of his feelings from anyone, it was something that he was slowly relearning to do. As Devon began by addressing the obvious elephant in the room and introducing him to the crowd before he was going over how they had met and fallen in love. The denial of the whole brothel in route for a hotel was probably the best idea when it came to this whole situation, and for a moment he wondered why they hadn't thought of that to begin with. Still he was silent and listened to what Devon said about them to ease any of the worries that his voters made have about them and their relationship. It really did seem as if the two of them having a family together was a subject that was repeatedly brought into the spotlight, and it made him think more on the matter himself, even if they had decided to not actually discuss this matter more seriously themselves until next year. It wasn't until this speech had ended and Devon began on the speech that Valentina had actually written for him that he was dragged from his thoughts of a family.

 

"Are you really that bad at it?" Kario asked a little curious as they stood in line to get some food and the politician indicated that with him on the back of a horse they wouldn't get very far anyway. He did understand that it wasn't necessarily and easy thing to do, after all your partner was a strong animal with a mind and will of it's own, which could pose it's own set of challenges when it came to riding. Some horses were easier to ride than others, it was quite normal so it wouldn't be a big deal in the end if Devon really was hopeless when it came to horseback riding. The more they spoke about this subject the more he learned about Sven again and that the man was apparently a very good rider, which for some reason didn't really come as a surprise to him. "I have to say that it does sound like a great way for me to get to know him better, and as long as you're okay with just driving along instead then I can't find any reason to complain." He admitted with a smile, it did sound nice, and as long as in the end they all ended up together and had fun then it didn't truly matter to him in the end how things played out.

 

There was one thing that had come back to his mind though because of this, something he had always wanted to do. "You know... when I was little I always dreamed of being a barrel racer..." He mused tapping his chin in thought as he let his mind go back to when he was little. It had always been a dream of his, more than many of his other dreams and wishes. It was also safe to say that one of his favorite animals were horses, and he had always wanted more, more so than he had even wanted a dog. That was saying a lot, considering he asked for a dog every year for his birthday and Christmas while he was growing up until he had finally grown to understand that his parents could not afford to get him one and that it would be unfair to take in an animal that they were not able to properly care for. That hadn't stopped him from wishing for one, but it had made it so he stopped asking for one.

 

The arm wrapping around his hip made him look up to his lover meeting his gaze for a moment before Devon was leaning closer his mouth quite close to his ear. What he said made a pleased smile cross his own face, anything he did that made Devon proud of him was certainly a win to him as he really wanted to do nothing more than make the blonde man happy with him. Making him proud just made it all better, and he was determined to continue to do that. "I am definitely glad to hear it. I do after all want you to be sure that I will do anything for you... and your career." The younger man responded happily. And he would, Kario wanted to do nothing more than support Devon and show the older man that he would do things for him and his career whenever he could even if it was out of his comfort zone. That and to kind of prove the same thing to Stewart since the man seemed to think he was just a boy that would pout when he didn't get his way and only thought about his own feelings and perspective. That wasn't true, or at least he tried his best not to be like that, he wanted to be open minded to everyone and how they saw things. Even if there were other things that he probably wouldn't really budge on, not without a bit of convincing at least.

 

As they stepped forward his dark gaze moved from the older man to the woman before them as Devon was ordering what he wanted and he couldn't help but laugh softly when he noticed the look that crossed his boyfriend's face. It really was amusing how happy the older man seemed to be and he could already assume why, none of this stuff seemed like something that the other would eat on a normal day, and it made him come to the conclusion that this was probably the only time a year he had the opportunity to do so. When he was asked what he wanted his gaze moved over the menu himself but after a short moment he shrugged, "Honestly... I'm not really hungry." There was no point in trying to eat something if he wasn't actually hungry, so he wasn't going to lie and say he was and have the older man get him something. Instead he was happy to just have a few moments of the other's time considering how busy he was throughout this whole festival, even though he understood it. "I'm fine." He added with a reassuring smile already having a feeling that his boyfriend may either worry or try to see if he was sure. But he was, his anxiety was still a bit high and this made his appetite little to none.

[-Hideki-]

Sucking on his bottom lip the governor looked at his boyfriend when he was asked if he really was that bad at riding a horse after Devon had let him know they wouldn’t get anywhere with the billionaire on a horseback. “I am incredibly bad at it, yes. I understand that it’s surprising, considering how I aced and continue to ace most tasks and things in my life but I’m just hopeless when it comes to riding and golfing. What probably is ironic because, you know, I was born into a wealthy family and based on the stereotype those should be my hobbies.” He started. “But I never enjoyed golf and when I got challenged to play polo and was stupid enough to take the challenge it turned out that I can’t ride a horse at all. It’s probably because I feel uncomfortable sitting on an animal and I don’t trust it.” He guessed. Maybe if he wasn’t as suspicious about the situation and the animal he’d not suck as badly but when the blond had made it onto the back of the horse back then and had not fallen down on the other side again right away, he had clung onto the saddle as if his life had been depending on it, his body getting all tense and stiff, what had led to Jens celebrating that moment all the more. “It was only thanks to Sven’s uncle who had a lot of patience and expertise that I survived that challenge of that English guy with my dignity halfway intact at least and got away with a really embarrassing crush on my best friend’s uncle….” He admitted. “But he was good looking, charming and really nice and considerate to me… also he was married to a woman and had three kids.” He remembered.

 

Smiling at the other he nodded when Kario expressed how this was a good idea and it’d give him the opportunity to get to know Sven better in addition and that he’d like to do that if Ashfield didn’t mind just driving along. “Absolutely don’t mind. I love cars, I love to drive cars and I love nice landscapes. It’s a great solution, really.” The governor ensured the other man. “And I like the idea of you and Sven getting to know each other better. Although I and he have lost touch over the last years, he was an important person throughout my life and I want him to become more present in it again. Not to mention that he’ll see the both of us …” he coughed. “in a rather private setting.” Devon reminded about the plans for that statue that Sven would make for them.

 

While they were waiting the younger man told him that he had always wanted to be a barrel racer and it was rather immediate that the billionaire responded to that. “If that’s still something you’d like to do you could make this your hobby. I buy you a horse, we search for a stable near the city until one is finished for it on my property and you can start riding lessons until you can participate in barrel racing.” The man told the other right away, willing to make his dreams true, to buy him whatever the hell he wanted and to spoil him without realising that this was the kind of behaviour that everyone was thinking about when they looked at them. He just really wanted to make Kario happy and if he could achieve that by spending some money that wouldn’t hurt him financially where was the problem with that? “There are horse breeders present here. I’m certain we can talk to one or the other if you’d like.” He suggested.

 

There was a slightly amused smile on his lips when the black haired man pleaded he’d do everything to support him and his career due to the career part of it. “I’m really glad that you want to support me and I love to have you by my side and your support.” He told him. “However this whole career thing sounds a little… inspired by my adviser.” Ashfield found looking into those dark eyes. “You don’t have to take what Stewart says to heart that much or prove yourself to him. “ he assured the other.

 

Devon was giving his lover a curious look when he told him he wasn’t hungry and didn’t want anything. “You’re missing out then, I tell you that.” the governor commented and the lady behind the counter chuckled. “But if you’re not hungry.” He then shrugged and ordered two drinks, one for him and one for Kario, taking the food that was handed to him after he had paid for it to then walk over to a table with a bench to sit down and eat, enjoying the silent moment between speeches, events and conversations, delightedly throwing the fatty food into his body only to hear Stewart speaking to Clarence when the two approached the table. “No, he does it again.” Stewart moaned. “Why doesn’t he ever learn… I’ll call Valentina and tell her to see that she’ll get him those pills or we won’t get him home punctually because we’re not getting him out of the bathroom again till tomorrow afternoon.” ´the man was not happy to see the governor stuff all that food into himself at all and knowing that his boyfriend had just heard that too Devon was stopping to chew, his face turning fire red from embarrassment.

[Sathenus]

Kario really was surprised to hear Devon admit that he was incredibly bad at riding a horse, for some reason having a hard time grasping the concept that his boyfriend was bad at anything to begin with. Hopeless? That made it seem as though even getting in the saddle was a challenge for the politician, though he had a sudden feeling that it was probably true and Devon did have a hard time even achieving that aspect of riding. Still he didn't comment yet, listening as his boyfriend continued to explain that it was probably ironic since he was born into a wealthy family and stereotypes made it seem as though it should be a hobby. Having already remembered Devon telling him he wasn't good at golf that part didn't come as a surprise, personally thinking it was a rather dull sport to begin with. His head cocked to the side slightly when the older man expressed that he couldn't ride a horse at all, probably due to the fact that he felt uncomfortable sitting on an animal he didn't trust. "Why wouldn't you trust it?" He asked unable to grasp why anyone wouldn't be able to trust such creatures. "There is definitely something special about making a connection and putting trust while gaining the trust of an animal so much stronger and larger than yourself." He mused more to himself though it was also slightly aimed towards his boyfriend. Kario himself had always dreamed of building such a bond and connection with a horse, knowing that the partnership that went into any kind of sport involving horses was probably one of the the best examples of teamwork he could think of. Having your partner being a large animal with a mind and will of it's own certainly did add a new challenge in such sports after all.

 

Torn from his mind he smiled at the governor when he said he absolutely didn't mind driving along once more expressing how he loved cars and loved driving them. It made him feel much better about the idea that it would be him and Sven on what was sure to be a great horseback riding trip while his boyfriend was left to drive along. Especially since the last thing he would ever want to do was make Devon feel like he didn't want to spend time with him. Though he hoped that the blonde knew that would never be the case. Kario really couldn't see a time -at least not yet- when he wouldn't want to spend time with his boyfriend. Even if it was clearly possible since they, like any couple, were bound to end up having a fight here and there. That one of the reasons they got along so seamlessly right now was because the whole relationship was still new to them and they were figuring things out. "Then I will certainly have to make sure you have some time to spend with him and rekindle the friendship, bringing him back into an important role in your life." He commented wanting to make sure the two friends stayed close. The comment about Sven seeing them in a rather private setting after all made him laugh softly, "That's true. Getting to know him better will certainly help get over any embarrassment that may sprout up from such a situation as well." There was that chance that despite having said he was okay with it and didn't feel like he had anything to hide that there wouldn't be at least a little embarrassment from having his boyfriend's friend seeing them in such an intimate and private situation. But knowing the artist better and spending more time with him after said situation would make it increasingly easier to overcome any embarrassment if he did end up having any.

 

The immediate response that Devon had to him expressing his dream had surprised him, and before Kario had a chance to even think he had replied with 'Really?' still struggling to think that anyone would be so quick to, or even have the means to make his dream a reality. An internal struggle immediately followed though, as much as he wanted to jump at the chance to realize his dream he didn't want anyone to think that he was expecting such things from Devon as to buy him a horse, build a stable on the grounds to house it and get him riding lessons. He didn't want anyone to have any more fuel to use against him and their relationship. Despite the internal struggle he was facing his eyes and face had lit up at the prospect of actually being able to fulfill this dream that he had long since thought he would never be able to achieve. "It is still a dream of mine..." Kario said after a few more minutes had passed. "But you've already done so much for me. I don't know if I could allow you to buy me a horse and do all of that stuff for one of my dreams too." He added almost immediately after showing some of the struggle he was having while still admitting that he did still have the dream to be a barrel racer and that Devon had rekindled a fire that had long since died out. After all, he hadn't mentioned his dream because he had expected or wanted Devon to immediately jump to buying him a horse, but because they had been on the topic of the majestic animals to begin with.

 

A small shrug was his response before as he thought about what Devon said and took into account what Stewart had said as well. "He may have had some influence but he didn't influence all of what I said. I know being the governor is important to you, that you want to win this election and not have your political career come to a sudden halt. And... deep down I want to do whatever I can to make sure that you do win. I don't want to be the reason that it ends... or even part of it. I'm also not doing this to really prove anything to him. I could care less what he thinks of me, though he made his thoughts very clear." At this point he stopped talking and a clearly displeased look crossed his face before he shook his head, seemingly shaking the thoughts lose as a smile returned and his features brightened again. "In the end I know this election is important to you, and so is your political career. That makes them both important to me, and I'll do what I can to help increase any chance you have of winning." Though the adviser did originally have something to do with how he felt towards this and it had started out as a way to prove to the older man that he would back his boyfriend's career up as much as he could it hadn't been long before that wasn't a factor at all anymore. In the end he had done what he had for Devon, not because he felt like he had to prove himself to someone else, but to show his boyfriend that he was going to support him as much as he could.

 

Giving a small smile in response he shrugged, "Maybe next time." Kario decided to address this as though there would certainly be a next time that they would be attending this festival and he would have the chance to try the food then. Not complaining when Devon decided to order a drink for him at least before he paid and the food was given to the politician on a tray, Kario happily followed him to a table and settled beside him slowly sipping at his drink while his dark eyes took in the festival around them as Devon ate. It wasn't until he heard the increasingly familiar -yet not very pleasant- voice of Stewart, dark gaze turning to the man who was approaching them speaking with Clarence. What he said though made him turn to his boyfriend, "Devon?" He questioned, though his tone made it clear he realized there was something about this food that the blonde hadn't told him. The fact that his lover's face was turning such a dark shade of red in embarrassment was even more proof of the matter. "This food doesn't exactly agree with you does it?" He suddenly asked though the look on his face stated he already knew it was right. He was half tempted to at least ask if it meant it stayed down just not in, but this was not the time nor place for specifics. With a soft sigh he pat the older man's arm, "That's alright, love. We all have those things we enjoy and do even if it doesn't exactly agree with us. Besides, you only have this chance once a year." Kario said in a clearly understanding manner deciding that this wasn't a big deal in the end. Devon was indulging in something he enjoyed and never had any other opportunity to have, so he wasn't about to be upset about it or make the blonde feel as though this was something he should do.

 

"We'll plan ahead next time." Kario added as he returned to sipping his soda, his hand moving to rest in his own lap since he was trying to keep his affectionate touches to a minimum as he didn't want to upset or potentially insult anyone by being overly affectionate to the governor. He just made a mental note that if the blonde did win this election that next year when he attended this festival with him that he would already have whatever pills Stewart was talking about on hand for his boyfriend. It really wasn't that big a deal to him, which made it so he didn't understand why it was such a big deal to Stewart either.

[-Hideki-]

Ashfield looked at the younger male as though it was completely obvious when he was asked why he wouldn’t trust a horse. “Why would I trust something with its own mind to do exactly as I want? What keeps it from throwing me off or running away with me if it so pleases? How do I know its intentions or whether it plans revenge on me?” the governor told Kario. “They already look at me that threatening. I am not really good with most animals. Except for normal pets! I never liked my father’s exotic reptile zoo at home either. When I looked into Paul’s eyes or at that Anaconda he held I always thought that there was only a glass wall between me and that creature keeping it from eating me alive in my own home.” The blond said. “I don’t even know how my father could concentrate on work with Paul’s tank in his back.”

 

When he heard his lover telling about how special it was to form a bond with an animal like a horse and to build mutual trust he raised an eyebrow. “It’s not a person and not a dog either. I don’t think it forms bonds. Paul, the alligator, certainly never formed a bond with anyone although my dad handled him and fed him.” Devon said scratching his chin. “I’m a hunter Kario. My relationship with large, wild animals is that I hunt them.” He reminded although he knew that his original attempt to impress the other with his trophy hunting skills had totally backfired but he still was who he was and there seemed to be a major difference between how the governor and how his lover saw such animals.

 

“Exactly.” Ashfield said when his boyfriend expressed how getting to know Sven better would certainly help him to get over any kind of embarrassment that might occur in that situation. “I mean there is nothing he wouldn’t have seen on my body and I know how he looks naked and we’ve seen each other in all types of situations but you don’t know him at all yet.”The governor said. “It was initially planned that he’d get over here directly but I could give him another call and tell him we meet in Ireland and go from there back here together. It’d be possible. Ireland isn’t far for him to begin with.” The blond found. “I just need to keep the time zones in mind or we’ll probably not gonna be friends anymore one day.”he joked remembering that he had called the other man in the middle of the night and had woken him up.

 

Laying his hand onto Kario’s shoulder because he had been forbidden to show intimacy by Stewart he squeezed it and smiled when the young man told him that it was still his dream but although he said:”Great. Then we’ll do that.” he had caught up on the way it had been said and how the other seemed to be torn between excitement and something that kept him from expressing that excitement freely. That only got clearer when the man made concerns about how Devon had already done a lot for him, how he wasn’t so sure whether he could allow him to buy him a horse to make his dream come true known. The billionaire raised an eyebrow and sighed. “Listen hun, it’s your dream right? It’d make you happy right?” he started. “And I want to make you happy, that’s all there is to it. I will give you this gift to make you happy; you can see it like a husband bringing his wife flowers or chocolate home after work just like that, without a special occasion, to make her happy. Just that I buy you a horse and a stable and no flowers and chocolate. It won’t hurt me more financially than those flowers this husband though.” Ashfield explained. “So what is the matter? What is your hesitation really about now? I can see that you’d actually love me to do just that!”he wanted to know. “Not that I’d need permission to buy you things anyway. I might as well just choose a horse for you then. And the stable I’d design myself either way because no one, no one gets a say about the architecture and decoration on my property, no matter how much I love him.”

 

A bright smile was to see on his face when Kario announced that Stewart may have had some influence about this but that this wasn’t the case anymore. That he knew his political career was important to him and that he wanted to prevent it from ending and certainly not wanted to be the reason it ended. He could understand where the young man was coming from and he definitely found it sweet what the other said. “I’m really happy that you feel that strongly about supporting me. I’d like to touch your face and kiss you right now but you know… might trigger some evangelicals. Anyway I want you to know that even if I lose the election that you’re not the reason for it. The reason is me alone. I went to the brothel…No, that wasn’t even it… I pretended to be someone I was not. I tried to live as something I was not. If something will be the reason for why my career ends, then that, having done as my father said! I’m not straight and I’m not even a Christian which I too pretended to be. I… I’m about as Christian as my father. I support the war on terror and I give to different charities during Christmas time. That’s how religious the Ashfield’s are.” The governor told his lover.

 

Hearing his name said in that way only made the furious blush on his face more prominent and he was certain that all hotness and attractiveness was now forever vanished and the other would never have sex with him again ever making him want to sink into the ground and pull bloody Stewart Cooper down with him for this one. “It doesn’t.” he mumbled a confirmation when the young man asked him if this food didn’t agree with him. His lover went on about it really compassionate and understanding but he clearly seemed to not get the full picture of what that meant. “It’s more complicated.” Ashfield told him. “I… I fucked up bad because of it last year. I ate a lot of this and … I didn’t sleep and had to take a ton of pills over some hours so that I could leave the guesthouse and get home with quite a lot of stops at 3pm the other day. I missed appointments my team had to cancel and postpone them, reorganise everything, do damage control. The ones I did attend in the evening when we arrived were disastrous because I was feeling sick and had not slept…”he tried to give the other an idea of what something like this meant for someone with Devon’s schedule and responsibilities and how many other people it affected.

 

He had just said that when Clarence was sitting down next to Devon, patting his shoulder, pulling the plate of food that was still full because he had luckily not eaten much of it yet away from him slowly. “Devon, do you remember what you’ve said when you hung in the doorframe of the bathroom last year?” the old man reminded him and Devon peered to the side. “I’ll never eat this again.” He admitted. “Right. You know, my third daughter got drunk the first time with fifteen and she said this very line but soon after she was drunk again, repeating that line again and again and again. It didn’t do her any good, she fell a lot and we and her husband had to help her out often because of her drinking habits. But she only works at Walmart. You have never seen a Walmart from the inside and you are the governor. You have a duty and responsibility for the state and the people.”the old man told him with a smile. “And you should be a good influence and role model for our young generation!” he added nodding into Kario’s direction. “That my daughter clearly failed to be too! She is a mother of three, two of her kids are around this young man’s age and she hasn’t been good role model to them. So how about you eat another gluten free protein bread sandwich my wife has made for you. This is with crabs and one with salmon now.” the old man said with a smile and handed Ashfield another two sandwiches.

 

Taking the sandwich his eyes hung on the fatty food that Clarence asked what to do with now because the politician had much rather eaten this. “Give it to me. I eat it.” Stewart said and Devon’s golden eyes widened questioning. “What? I can handle it. I wasn’t born a rich boy. My mum cooked like that. I was a totally fat kid I tell you that.” he said taking a piece of the food. “I also thought you gays were all vain and obsessed with counting calories and constantly worried about your looks and weight. So you shouldn’t eat this to begin with or you’ll gain weight and no gay wants to have sex with you anymore and you have to invest even more money in keeping that college boy to pretend he’s into you.”his heterosexual adviser Stewart gave Devon an expertise on gay people but the governor only looked at the food with sad puppy eyes as he ate the sandwich.
