"Why? Is that a problem?" he replied, "We're starting over, right?"

Long paused before explaining, "Women usually give massages."

Rosen blinked and looked over his shoulder at Long, "You're a pampered little thing, aren't you?" he chuckled.

Long didn't answer, looking off to the side.

Rosen started leaning back, "Imma keep leaning back until you give me a massage," he warned with a smirk.

Long paused, letting it go on until it was starting to get ridiculous. Then he sighed and put his hands on Rosen's shoulders.

Despite Rosen's calm demeanor he flinched ever so slightly but he didn't move from Long's hands, "Get on with it will ya?" he complained.

So Long slowly tried massaging Rosen's back. He clearly had no experience, but he seemed to at least understand the concept. He found the muscles holding tension in Rosen's back and pressed them to release the pressure.

"Ow!" Rosen complained as Long pressed a sensitive area, "Not so hard..."

--

The door to Wolfe's room suddenly opened and Frei walked inside. Wolfe was too absorbed with Raven to notice.

"... Sorry," Long replied, trying to ease up. He didn't have much practice being gentle.

--

Raven didn't notice Frei either, lost in the moment with Wolfe.

Rosen squirmed a bit but managed to not complain for awhile before he suddenly leaned all the way back against Long, "You really... are harsh," he whined quietly.

--

Finally Wolfe spotted the door open out of the corner of his eye and pulled away from Raven. He froze as he spotted Frei, standing and staring blankly at the two of them.

Long pushed back a bit. "... I don't mean to be," he replied.

--

"What?" Raven complained as Wolfe pulled away. After a moment he followed Wolfe's eyes and his face turned a deep shade of red.

Rosen stayed leaning against him, "I guess you've never had much chance to be gentle..." he mused, "That counts as starting over, right? Start being more gentle!"

--

Frei seemed a little amused at their reactions, "I'm taking Fin to an amusement park and since you two are doing this... I don't see how you can refuse me," there was a trace of a smirk on her lips as she turned to leave. Wolfe still hadn't regained his voice.

"... It's hard," Long complained quietly.

--

Raven didn't say anything either, still coming back to earth.

"You thought starting over would be easy?" Rosen demanded, looking up at Long's face.

--

After a long moment Wolfe cleared his throat, "... what time is it?" he asked quietly before looking around for his pants.

Long glanced at Rosen, but immediately looked away.

--

"... I don't know," Raven admitted as he looked for a clock.
