The room spun around him dizzily. He was vaguely aware of cursing in the background, and a somewhat familiar voice barking out orders. Then, strong arms lifted him up, and he began to feel as though he were flying… the lights swam and flickered before his eyes as he settled onto something deliciously soft. A cloud? A chair? A bed? He knew not.

Gentle lips pressed against him, and he sighed. Yes, this was familiar…

He was vaguely aware as clothing was removed and tossed aside, as slender fingers trailed over his body and finally, finally, Heaven was within his grasp and he caught a glimpse of beautiful red-gold…

Red woke up the next morning with his head throbbing. Lance handed him a cup of something blessedly hot and herbal. He gulped, feeling his headache ebb.

“… Who laced the punch? I’m going to kill them.”

“Wasn’t the punch, love,” Lance smiled. “Do you remember the sake?”

Red groaned, memory beginning to flood back. “… I challenged Green to a drinking contest?”

“You wiped the floor with him too, but…”

“Now I’m paying the price I guess.” Red finished his tea and set the mug down. “Ah… about last night…”

“Mm?”

“Where did these come from?” Red pointed at the row of bite marks down his chest.

Lance had the grace to look sheepish.
