Challenge 100 (59) Colorful

"Get them toe beans up here, lady," Hizashi chuckled, patting his bare legs. "And tell me what color you want."

"Purple, please." Elly wriggled her freshly-washed feet and smiled, resting back with her favorite couch cushion cuddled in her arms. 

"Why am I not surprised." He grinned and massaged her feet for a few minutes, staring at the bucket of supplies and trying to pick out one she might like. "God, baby, there's like ten different purples!"

"I know." She chuckled at his reaction. "I always buy one if I see one I like. I can't seem to help it."

"Okay, all right... then, here. Pick for me: left or right?"

Elly pursed her lips. "Left!"

Hizashi flashed her the color he held in his left hand, a shade that matched her lighter striping with lots of glitter in it. She purred with contentment as he shook it to mix. "If you want, you can do mine after."

She watched him fondly as he stuck his tongue out to concentrate. "Really? Hands, too?"

"Sure, whatevs." He blew on the completed right foot a little.

"Won't the kids tease you?"

"Nah. Besides, if I tell them it's because we were doin' lovey stuff the girls damn near faint and the guys immediately start barfing. In conclusion, they all shut up real quick."

"You're such a sweetheart." 

"Uh huh." He flashed her a cheeky grin. "Switch footies... aw, this one's <i>cold</i>." 

"Just 'cause I had my ankles crossed, I think. Yeek! Zashi!"

He had lifted it to his lips and was kissing and lapping at the cold skin. "Hwha? S'cold. This is the fastest way to warm it up."

"Your mustache <i>tickles</i>!"

He blinked at her for a moment, then wiggled his eyebrows. "Oh ho ho."

"Oh no, baby, wait!"

"Stay still now," he chided as he deliberately rubbed his upper lip on her foot. "I've got an open bottle in my hand."

"Quit!" Laughing louder, she waved her hands around. "Please! What about a bribe? Hmm?"

"Hmm..." He pretended to think it over, nibbling on her big toe. "Whatever I want after you're all dry?"

"Yes."

"Okay then." He kissed the top of her foot and brought up the bottle again. He hummed happily as he started painting again. "I propose we do some more painting together."

"Oh?"

"I bought some special stuff."

"Oh dear... what did I agree to."

He glanced over at her innocently, his green eyes wide. "English coloring books, princess. I wanted us to do a couple so the kids wouldn't be embarrassed later."

She pulled the cushion up over her face to muffle her laughter.
