Skye ran his fingers through Prince's purple hair. He giggled.

"So you're telling me you never bought your own shampoo before?" He asked.

Prince sighed. It was an embarrassing fact to admit, but he was a a Prince after all, these things were handled by the maids.

"Yes, I'm not worried about the hair, my neck is also purple i don't know what to do"

Skye smiled and ran his fingers down the said neck.

"I'll go to the store and get some solution or something"

"Can I come?"

Skye stood up and smiled at him.

"If you don't mind being spotted like that then yeah, let's go"

Prince smirked and jumped off the couch. He cannot wait to see how the tabloids will react to his sudden change.

"Let's go"

Benedict watched from a distance as Xavier was in his shoot. The two would glance at each other and share a wink or two.

Benedict couldn't believe that his childhood friend was now his boyfriend, were the two meant to be from the beginning or is just a little coincidence?

"What you thinking about?"

He looked up and smiled at Xavier. The model was wearing an all white outfit, his hair gelled up and his eyes were lined up with dramatic eyeliner making them stand out.

"Nothing important, are you done for the day?"

Xavier nodded and sat down. He wiped the eyeliner around his eyes.

"Yeah, i have the rest of the day off, want to hang out?"

"How about we go on that hot air balloon ride?"

Xavier smirked. It seems this date will include a cherry pop or two.

"Let's go right now"

Benedict chuckled and nodded.

"Okay"

The two walked out hand in hand with big smiles on their faces. Benedict now realizes that the past is in the past, what mattered now is to enjoy the moments in the present and hopefully after that hot air balloon ride, he'd never be the same again.

"Get four bottles, two each"

Prince nodded and stacked the bottles inside the cart. They walked around the store and Skye smiled, he felt like they were a married couple shopping for their home items.

"Let's get some snacks and meat" he said.

Prince pushed the trolley behind Skye as they made their way through the aisles.

"Lately I've been craving sirloin steak"

Prince chuckled shaking his head.

"That baby has expensive taste"

Skye stuck out his tongue as he stacked the steaks inside the cart. He gasped when he looked up ahead.

"That man is taking pictures of us"

Prince looked up, he could see a man hiding behind the stacked up baked bean cans. He pulled Skye by the waist.

"Don't be nervous, let's just give them what they want?"

Skye looked up at him feeling confused.

"Which is?"

His question was answered by a kiss to the lips, he felt Prince's hand go up and down his back making him moan. The Prince pulled away.

"Done"

Skye stood there breathless. That kiss....that kiss was different.

"Skye? Coming?"

"Hm? Oh yeah"

After the two finished their casual shopping spree, they went back to their car. Skye sighed as he leaned back on the seat.

"Prince...."

"Hm?"

"You forced yourself to kiss me didn't you?"

Prince frowned. What was Skye talking about?

"I don't think I'm following"

"Whenever we kiss you do this thing with your tongue that turns me on but you didn't do it this time"

Prince gasped when he sees Skye's eye glass over with tears.

"Baby, i didn't even realize, I'm sorry"

Skye started to cry.

"I'm sorry baby" Prince says wiping his tears. Skye shook his head.

"It's okay, I'm just overreacting, i feel so bad about what happened to you, why didn't I come to that room sooner, why didn't I follow you"

Prince hugged him tightly. He shushed him. It seems he wasn't the only one who needed therapy.

"Tomorrow we're going to attend our therapy session together"

Skye pulled away from the hug and nodded. He sniffled.

"God I'm such a drama queen"

Prince laughed softly.

"It's okay, now give me a kiss"

Their lips once again connected with a kiss. Skye shuddered in pleasure as Prince's tongue danced around inside his mouth.

"Better?"

He nodded and smiled.

"Better"

Benedict gazed at the sky, the hot air balloon was suspended in the air with ropes tying it down. He sighed.

"Won't we crash?"

Xavier chuckled and pulled him by the waist.

"It's not windy so we'll be fine. Also, while we shopped for snacks, i happen to buy a pack or two"

Benedict frowned. A pack?

"You smoke?"

There was a moment of silence between the two men. Xavier pulled something out of his pocket.

"These"

A red hue spread all over Benedict's face. He gulped.

"I see...."

"Now shall we go?"

He took a deep breath. This was it. He was going to lose his ass virginity. Who knew a day like this would come.

Xavier got inside the large basket. He smiled and stuck his hand out to Benedict.

"Trust me"

A smile formed on Benedict's face. He held on to Xavier's hand and got inside the basket.

"To the sky!" Xavier says with determination.

Benedict laughed and gasped as they started to float away. The ground getting further away. He held onto Xavier's waist.

"If I knew we'd be cuddling i would've suggested this ride earlier"

He rolled his eyes.

"Can I ask you something?"

"Sure?"

"Why didn't you tell me we knew each other in the past"

Xavier nodded. It was a fair question.

"I didn't want that old relationship back. Sure i enjoyed being your friend but i wanted more.....and if i told you, we wouldn't be here right now"

It was fair. He sighed. It seems Xavier knew him more than he had thought.

"Okay, so what are we having for snacks"

"I'll be having a 9 inch thick, sausage while you have a nice 8 inch banana with cream at the tip"

He blushed.

"Are we still talking about food?"

He yelped when Xavier pulled him closer and gave his butt a good squeeze.

"What do you think?"
