His boyfriend didn't know how insanely badly he'd wanted to accept the invitation of that tongue, nor how hard it was for him not to cater to that disappointed whine. Or maybe he did. After all, Yusuke did tend to spoil him horribly in most cases. And the small gestures worked wonders on him all the time.
Either way, it wasn't enough that he couldn't hold himself back; be that due to will power alone or something more. Once the last of the strands he was tugging caloused digits through began putting up enough resistance to tell him all of the slippery soap was rinsed out he simply continued on with the massage without having to worry about any more of that cleaning. When his fox's eyes landed back down on him however, the gentle pets and heavier pressures began to die down.
Chocolate eyes lit up as he stared into forest. He hadn't even heard the 'joke', as it were. And yet he looked perfectly prepared to accept amusement from it. This wasn't something new. Yusuke's tendancy to grin like an idiot was massive. Although his most recent admission might cause one to rethink whether all of the times he did such a thing were from something like following along mindlessly and perhaps finding amusement in the fact that the fox was amused alone. Well actually, he had a pretty horrible tell for when such a thing happened in that cheeky, mindless chortle of his as that foolish grin split him from ear to ear. It really could be just so dofficult to gauge whether Yusuke was in a state of knowing too much or nothing at all.
Luckily he seemed to catch the joke in the current situation. A warm little chuckle turned his smile gleeful and softened his eyes just a little more. And he teased back. "Aww," he cooed lightly, though with less snarkiness in his tone than usual when the following taunt played out. "You're so cute when you say it like that."
Another soft chuckle and he allowed his hands to lose their position as that sharp focus drew back into those pupils. They didn't drop, but instead drew down the redhead intirely. They pet down over his cheeks, the thumb of his dominant hand brushing just over the corner of his mouth and under his lower lip as they went in a tease that didn't offer the attention he necissarily wanted.
Finger tips brushed down his throat and out to the tips of his shoulders in such a light tickle they were barely making connection. Dexterous fingers rubbed heavily down slightly and then back up his arms. Strong palms rolled across his chest to meet at his sternum, back out, and then down the rest of the way until they landed on his hips; all while staring with a pointed heat into that pretty forest.
A small smirk slid it's way along his lips as he took hold of those hips and used them to guide his redhead back out of the stream of water enough that it was hitting the small of his back. And then his hands lifted again, light as air fingertips drawing back up his abdomen and chest and circling around his neck. He paused there a moment, resting in one of Kurama's favorite poses against him. It was only the slightest bit awkward to attempt this leaning rest against him with their height difference. And not enough that it was in any way uncomfortable. "You've been doing so good," he purred out heatedly.
Gathering every last strand of red tresses that sat over his back, Yusuke was careful to pull the lot of it up and over his shoulder to leave it bare. Well, that wasn't necissarily the purpose but it did accomplish it. It would help keep the hair clear of the stream should he feel the need to lean further back in to it for some reason. "And even though I love it when you act cute, I know you can do way better than that."
His attention only shifted away long enough to grab and uncap that conditioner, and saueeze some into his palm before replacing it. It only took a second and then he was reaching up into that mane again. "You're being so good ," he repeated with that happy little growl in his tone while he began applying the slick substance into those locks as if the entire reason for beginning the conditioning were an emphasis on it. It very well might have been.
"Tell me where you want it," he demanded stubbornly as he used that growl of his against him.
"Tell me how you want it," he added emphatically as he leaned a little closer.
Pupils dilated slightly as they turned down on his newest goal and hot tongue poked out to snake across the crease of kiss swollen lips once again. This time it was to help unlock that seal for the words to get out rather than for him to gain entry.
"Shuichi," he finished smoothly as he focused that unyielding stare back into emerald pools. "Tell me exactly what you want. And you will get it."
