"Now that we're done, how about we take a bath together, Dino?" Ivan asked while smiling gently at his Filipino lover.

"Alright, let's go!" Dino replied eagerly before sitting up. "Ouch!" Dino blurted out when he felt that his bottom was aching.

"What's wrong?" Ivan inquired worriedly.

"Why are you apologizing, Ivan?" Dino asked anxiously. "It wasn't your fault. I agreed to do it with you after all."

"But still, I was the one who thrusted myself back and forth inside you that fast," Ivan replied with an apologetic facial expression. "Oh, I know! I'll carry you to the bathroom!"

"That's a good idea. But how are we gonna bathe?" Dino inquired innocently, looking clueless.
