“Seidou, it’s Akira’s birthday tomorrow,” Amon says nervously. He can’t believe he almost forgot. He’s such an idiot! He deserves all the glares Maris Stella gives him.
Seidou’s face is expressionless. “Yes, I know.”
“Do you have plans?” Amon demands. Seidou, of course Seidou remembers.
“I have dinner reservations for all of us,” Seidou admits.
“Good!” Amon bites his lip. He needs help, now. “Uh – what do I do?”
“Buy her lingerie for after dinner.”
“Seidou!” Amon’s cheeks feel like they’re being scalded.
“You know Akira loves that stuff. And you have better fashion sense than me.” Seidou rolls his eyes.
“I mean, yeah, but…” Amon stutters.
“Sex is still scary for you?” Seidou teases, taking him by the hand. “Come on, husband. I shall show you how to buy a proper lingerie set.”

“Okay, this is adorable.” Akira lifts out a pink lacy set that immediately sends Amon’s heart racing and Seidou into giggles.
“From Amon,” she reads. “I see. In case you forgot, I know you both. This has Seidou written all over it.”
“I’m a bad husband,” Amon says.
“Nah.” Akira grins. She stands and heads for the bathroom. “You’re both fantastic. But…you can be my naughty husbands for a bit.”
