[Well of course he's going to be eating it as he messages Cheng back. A piece literally being sucked on when Cheng answers. He smiles and waves then pulls it from his mouth.]
You said to ask for the meaning of the fruit. Is it something special? Or is this about the sex stuff? Because if you'd like some I'm ready.
[He still wasn't going to get over how...forward they were, but he didn't mind it, either. Flushing, he had to glance away, settling the thoughts in his head because watching Riley suck on a piece of fruit?! The one Cheng gave both of them!?! He was going to pop, wasn't he? ]
It's not about the sex stuff.
[ Whatever harshness that may have been in his voice was softened by his lopsided smirk. ]
When fruit is given, it's a sign of affection. It could also show remorse, but that is not it in this case. And normally it's peeled and cut, but I had so many, I didn't want them to go bad quickly.
[ There might be the tiniest of whimpers as he covers his eyes and sends a prayer to the celestials to give him strength with these two beautiful, shameless men. ]
Thank you. For giving me time.
[ Not the flames on his face, thank you! The time to process this on his own! ]
You're welcome. Though next time stay and eat the fruit with us okay? We don't have to do anything but eat but it would be fun to enjoy treats like this with you.
[Don't mind him as he sucks and licks juice off his fingers.]
Then it doesn't matter what gift you give me, I'm always going to accept it and treasure it. You're special to me and everything you give me will be special too because you gave it to me.
[ Again, he's touched. And he doesn't know how to handle it, either. What does he say or do against a confession like that? He flicks his eyes up and they're glassy. ]
I...can't say many have told me that. Or shown me that they've felt that way.

So you're confessing to us? With fruit? That's the cutest thing I've ever seen.
[He adores this man. He doesn't care that they've not even known each other a month yet. Riley is always quick to follow his heart without question.]

[ More blustering, flustered huffs, and muttering to himself. Then he looks up, almost looking like he's facing an executioner's axe. ]
Yes?
no subject
It's okay. We won't do anything until you're ready. But I will happily accept your confession and let you know I feel the same.
Oh and that all my holes are ready for when you are.
[That's important note to add.]

You accepted the gift. That is more than what others have done for me in the past.
And--
[ Bashful smile. ]
Alright.
