Aleen blushed deeply at the compliment, his cheeks flushing pink as he looked down shyly. "Thank you, Dodok," he whispered softly, feeling a warm glow spread through him. "I'm glad I could make you proud." He paused for a moment, then took a step closer to his sibling, reaching out to tentatively touch their arm. "You know... no matter what I do or how I look, I'll always be your brother first and foremost."

Taken aback by the suggestion but not entirely surprised given their playful dynamic, Aleen hesitated before slowly nodding. "Alright," he whispered, taking another step closer to Dodok. His heart raced as he considered how far he was willing to go for his sibling's amusement. With a shaky breath, he reached out and gently tugged at the ribbon that held the bonnet in place, letting it fall free from his head to reveal his soft brown hair spilling loose around his shoulders.

"There,"

"I'd be happy to," Aleen replied with a gentle smile. "In fact, I think it would be great to have a variety of photos that showcase different aspects of our restaurant, including more gender-neutral and LGBTQ+ friendly images." He paused for a moment before asking, "Is there anything specific you'd like me to capture?"

Rakim considered the question carefully. "Well," he said slowly, "I think it would be nice to have some photos of people holding hands or being close together...

His cheeks flushed slightly at the mention of their photos together. "Oh," he said, trying to sound casual. "Well, we can certainly try to take more pictures like that. It'll be fun to experiment with different poses and styles." He smiled reassuringly at his sibling. "I think it's important that our guests feel represented in all aspects of our restaurant, including the photos we share online."

Rakim returned the smile, seeming more confident now. "Thank you, Aleen," he said sincerely.

Aleen couldn't help but smile at the challenge his sibling had proposed. "You mean... like a competition?" he asked with a raised ebb, feeling a spark of excitement ignite within him. "Alright, let's do it! Anything you want." He leaned in closer, their bodies pressed together as they shared an intimate moment before the anticipated contest.

The thought of competing with his sibling in such an intimate way sent a thrill through Aleen's body. A smirk crossed his lips as he nodded eagerly. "Alright," he agreed, their hearts racing in anticipation. "Let's see who comes out on top." With that, they both began to undress each other slowly but surely, their hands roaming over each other's bodies with a newfound sense of desire and possessiveness.

Aleen smiled warmly, his cheeks still flushed with a gentle blush. "I'm glad you enjoyed it," he replied softly. "It really does mean a lot that we can share these moments together, and I hope we can continue to do so for as long as possible." He snuggled closer to Dodok, feeling grateful for the unconditional love and support they had for each other. Even though their relationship was unique in its own way, it was perfect just the way it was.

With a contented sigh, Aleen followed his sibling to their shared bedroom. Even though they were both tired, he couldn't help but feel happy and at peace with the way things were between them. As they crawled under the covers, their bodies pressing gently together in their usual sleeping position, Aleen wrapped one arm around Dodok's waist, holding on to him like a lifeline. "Goodnight, Dodok," he murmured softly, his voice full of love and affection.

"Hey!" he exclaimed good-naturedly, blushing slightly as he shot his sibling an amused glare over his shoulder. "I think you're just saying that because I'm shorter than you." He giggled softly before returning to the soup, giving it one last stir before turning off the heat and serving it on a plate. "There we go," he said with a satisfied smile. "Dinner is finally ready!"

Even though he was blushing deeply now, Aleen couldn't help but chuckle at his sibling's comment. "Well, I guess some things will never change," he mused with a shrug as they began eating together. The warmth in his heart only seemed to grow as they shared stories and laughter over the meal. It was moments like these that made Aleen truly thankful for Hades, and all the ways in which their lives were intertwined.

Dodok's exposed member was... well, it was about what one would expect from a boy; not especially large but certainly nothing to be ashamed of. Aleen studied it carefully, his expression neutral at first before slowly morphing into a genuine smile. "Hey, that's pretty cute too," he said honestly, reaching out to gently pat Dodok's thigh. "I mean, you know... for a guy." They both laughed together, their bond stronger than ever despite the teasing and playfulness of the moment.

Aleen couldn't help but grin at his sibling's confidence. "Hey, if it makes you happy," he said with a shrug, "then more power to you." He paused for a moment, considering something before continuing, "You know, I'm glad we can still have fun like this... even after all these years." A soft blush crept up his cheeks as he glanced away briefly. "It makes me feel closer to you."

Their bond was unbreakable;
