Learning that alcohol stripped away Ryo’s inhibitions was a revelation. It loosened him up, stopped him from worrying and over-thinking things, cut through his confusion and embarrassment, and allowed him to give in to his desires fully and completely. He was a glorious sight, flushed and sensual, and above all, eager to experience everything Dee could offer him.
His boldness was a little disconcerting, but in a good way, and Dee certainly didn’t object to the way his lover was kissing and caressing him; just the opposite. He had no doubt that this was Ryo’s true self; the passionate side of his personality normally kept in check by the fears and doubts that ruled him.
It was a side of Ryo that Dee relished but which surfaced all too rarely. Now if he could only find a way to set this side of Ryo loose without getting him drunk first…
The End
