"Do I really need to answer that question?" Ariel asked, raising an eyebrow over a still closed eye. Of course, it wasn't like he had anything to compare it to, so for all he knew it could have been sub par. He didn't voice those thoughts, though, leaving them alone to float around absently in his still pleasantly hazed mind. Besides, he thought it was pretty obvious he had liked it.

Yes, Markise wanted desperately to say. But really, how could Ariel's answer possibly trump Kwami's? So a near-virgin had liked it, that didn't necessarily mean he was good. Markise licked his lips, looking down at Ariel, who looked perfectly content to have a nap now. "Could you say it anyway?" he asked. He didn't care if Ariel was a near-virgin, that had been the best he'd ever had, and he wanted to know beyond any doubt.

Ariel opened one eye and looked up at Markise, wondering why it was so important, but then shrugged and turned his eyes back to the ceiling. "Yes, I liked it," he said, "Very much." That had better be a good enough answer, too he thought absently. He wasn't going to go into more detail than that. He didn't think it called for any more detail.

Yes, that was a good enough answer for Markise. Ariel wasn't exactly the biggest talker, and the fact that he'd humored Markise by answering the question was a small victory in itself. Markise mentally thumbed his nose at Kwami, wherever the bastard was, then settled down, nestling his head uninvited against the crook of Ariel's arm. At this point, Markise didn't care if half the relationship was in his mind. He wanted to feel close to someone, dammit, and Ariel was the most likely suspect.

Ariel's eyebrows creased at the feel of Markise laying against him like that, but he didn't say anything about it, and instead remained silent as he let himself enjoy the thoughtless pleasure that was flowing through him. After a minute or two he took a breath and opened his mouth, "We need to find somewhere to meet up." It seemed like the easiest thing to do, instead of just hoping they'd chance upon each other.

Markise suddenly wondered if that was all they'd be doing, and he was torn. He wanted it, and he wanted Ariel, but he had a feeling Ariel wasn't going to miraculously become easier to get close to. "We could meet here," he suggested, letting his fingers move lightly against Ariel's chest. "Just two straight guys hanging out in an empty classroom to have incredible sex. Mm, I mean, do nothing in particular," he corrected himself, half mocking.

Ariel sighed softly and nodded, "That's fine with me." He didn't have any problems in the classroom as their meeting place. He got the impression that the corridor was rarely, if ever, used, and so there wouldn't be much chance of someone even walking by the door while they were inside. They could meet up every so often, or could just go there when they had nothing to do to see if the other was there. Ariel paused for a moment. He was actually planning out when he would next see a guy.

No reaction whatsoever. Markise found it interesting how Ariel was so insistent that he was straight, after they'd just had sex. Well, interesting and disturbing. "I've been thinking about that tattoo," Markise said, hoping to spark something that Ariel might actually have something to say about. "I want to start with something on the back of my shoulder, or low on my back. Haven't decided what yet." Any opinion? Hint.

Ariel sighed and opened his eyes to look down at Markise, trying to imagine either one, but finding it very hard to do. "I can't see you with either," he said. "Tramp stamps don't look good on anyone and, well, I suppose it all depends on what you get on your shoulder." It was still hard to imagine Markise with ink. He didn't think, once again, that it could have been considered rude to instantly shut down Markise's ideas. He was just giving his opinion, and in his opinion, those places wouldn't look right on Markise.

Markise blinked, but didn't find offense with that. He didn't know much about tattoos to begin with, and Ariel did, considering that besides actually having tattoos, his brother was a tattoo artist person. "What, then?" he asked. "I'm not getting my name tattooed on my ass." He stopped talking as a few ideas filtered into his mind, but he wasn't sure. Did people get tattooed there?

Ariel tilted his head up just a little, thinking, then pulled his hand out from under his head and lightly touched Markise's back between his shoulder blades. "Here," he said, then moved his arm down his stomach to touch the v where his own stomach and hips met, letting his fingers rest lightly in the small valley. "Or here. They'd both hurt quite a bit, but they'd look good." Especially the second he had pointed out, he had always liked seeing those.

Markise's lips rounded into a silent ooh at the second place Ariel had pointed out. "That one seems more my style," he said, somehow unable to raise his eyes when Ariel's fingers were right there. They'd both hurt quite a bit. Dammit, it was going to hurt anyway, wasn't it? Markise's tongue swept lightly over his lips and he looked back at Ariel. "That one just feels sexy," he said.

Ariel nodded and absently moved his fingers against that spot, he couldn't help it, he had always thought that felt good. "I could never get one there," he said, staring off at a spot somewhere by the door. Guys very rarely got them, even if Ariel thought they looked very good in the couple he had seen. And there was no way he was going to ask his brother for a tattoo right there, anyway. It would just make for an awkward session.

Markise couldn't help watching Ariel, and he saw that light motion of his hand. Markise's hand slipped low, pushing Ariel's hand lightly away and taking over the motion, wanting to try it. If Ariel thought it was that hot, he was definitely getting one there. "What do you think I should get?" he asked. "What's really hot right now?" He was thinking something simple, like a star or a sun, just to draw attention to the area, but he didn't want to end up with something clichéd.

"Why ask me?" Ariel asked, closing his eyes again at the feel of Markise's fingers moving so lightly against that sensitive skin. "You're the one that will have to live with it for the rest of your life." Besides, whatever was hot at the moment was the thing that was going to be so overused that it didn't look good on anyone. Ariel would tell Markise if his choice was going to be a bad decision, but he wasn't going to just give ideas.
