Ray leaned back on the couch. “Duh, Frase, it’s candy. What the fuck else do you do with it? You got candy up there in Canada, don’t you?”

Ray grinned, pulling the candy out of Fraser’s mouth. “What do you think?”
“I seem to be quite energized and sticky, Ray.”
Ray leaned in and slowly kissed him, tasting sugar and sweetness.
“Perfect.”

Very sweet! Great job with voices.
Ahh for the days of Pixie Stix and Lik-m-Aid. Nothing like sending us careening off the steel and concrete objects in the playground!
