Simon reached over and he ran his fingers affectionately through those blonde locks. "You're not a very good liar, Naoki..."

Itzel kissed Naoki's cheek gently and nuzzled against Naoki once again. "Master...tell me what's wrong...please?" he said softly.

Pouting a bit he decided there was no sense in hiding what he was thinking earlier and told everything to both males.
"... so it's all phatetic, you see?", he muttered, fed up with himself and everything as he hid face into his arms that he wrapped around his knees.

Simon and Itzel both blinked in confusion. Simon set the paddle down and made his way over to Naoki to wrap his arms around the smaller male from behind while Itzel sat on his knees on in front of the blonde. Both men grew concerned about the neko's sudden change in behavior that seemed to come out of nowhere.

"Pathetic? What are you talking about, Naoki? What is this all of a sudden? We would never see you as pathetic." Simon said softly.

"Well... I see myself as such. Even if I'm worried and would want to rpotect you you are much stronger than me and older. If you wouldn't be able to defend yourself... what can someone like me do..? It's... I'm pathetic", hu muttered, feeling even worse since both male were focused now on him and not on the pleasure and that was all his fault.

Simon frowned hearing the response and kissed Naoki's cheek. "Naoki...you're not pathetic. Your heart is true...and you're very caring for others, you're curious and willing to learn new things...would you feel better if I taught you some magic." he asked softly.

Naoki felt a bit better when he heard Simon. He looked up and his maroon eyes rested on the mage. Nodding his head few times he waited for something more to happen.. but then decided to speak up.
"I want to be able to protect you... even if only a little bit", he said softly and looked down, blushing as much as he possibly could.

"Then, after this, I promise to teach you all of the magic you can handle." Simon replied with a smile before he kissed Naoki's lips gently.

"R-really?", asked Naoki, getting back a bit of his usual confidence.

"Really. Everyone can learn if they have the thirst to learn...plus, you might have some magic in you from me already from me giving you ears and a tail." Simon replied with a smile.

"Uhm... But isn't it your magic? I couldn't possibly use that?", he asked curiously, getting sidetracked as always when it came to his chains of questions. "Wouldn't it be hard... or impossible to do that? Do every spell have formula you can learn by memorising it?"
Naoki didn't even remember they were about to have some more fun.
