When Dex came over and said that he was going to clean up Cherono's back, the dwarf nodded a bit. He set aside his pen and took his hair out of its ponytail, twisting it up into a messy bun on top of his head instead so that it would be out of the way for Dex to do whatever he was going to do. As far as his back was concerned, at least, he trusted Dex.
Cherono chuckled a bit when Dex said that it was a first for him. He blinked in surprise when Dex motioned for him to lie down with him, but he wasn't about to turn down the request. He moved to lay next to Dex, his legs barely reaching Dex's when their heads were level. "I'm glad you enjoyed it," he said to him in a soft voice, "because I did, too. It's really nice when it's like that, and when it's with someone you care about..." His voice trailed off a bit. Did Dex care about him? He couldn't tell.
Dex smiled when he came and Dex held him close. "Is that so? By the face you made I could have sworn you liked it too." He smirked and shook his head. Did he care for the midget? Perhaps just a bit. He just wanted someone to need him and Cherono was the best one to do so since he didn't have anything. "I do care..." He said finally and gently cupped his face before kissing him passionately.
Cherono blinked in surprise when Dex cupped his face and told him that he cared. Before he could even think of an answer, Dex was kissing him passionately. He found himself kissing back just as passionately, sliding his arms around Dex's neck slightly. They might have something here. They might be able to make something that could work for them. Cherono kissed him a bit longer before breaking the kiss, though he didn't pull back and instead lingered close to Dex's lips a little longer. "I'm glad you do," he murmured in a soft voice, one hand coming to caress Dex's cheek. "I wasn't sure...because...well, you came on a bit strong the first few days," he said. He knew it was a shitty joke but he wasn't really sure what more he could say.
Dex laughed at the joke he made and kissed him softly this time. "I know... I am sorry about what my guys did to you. I didn't see how deep he had cut you that time. I did go off on him about that..." He said softly and rubbed his cheek with his thumb. "How is your back right now?" He asked softly.
