“Why do you two have to join us?” Kiriko grumbled as Hanzo and Cole walked between them hand in hand. She looked back at Hanzo sticking her tongue out. Hanzo flipped her off making Cole laughed. 

“Hanzo told me that you were dangerous,” Illari said, smirking up at her.

“Am I dangerous or is Hanzo just a worrywart?” Hanzo stepped on the back of Kiriko’s shoes making her trip.

“Hey!” She snapped. Cole laughed, putting his arms around Hanzo.

“Hanie, be nice to the young lovers.”

“Young lovers! We were dating longer than the two of you were dating.” Kiriko said turning back to face Hanzo 

“Only by a single week!” 

“It was ten days and you’re just jealous that Illari was able to see what I was dropping down unlike you who needed Cole begging on his hands and knees to go out with you.”

“I only learned that you wanted to go out with me because Hana and Brig told me,” Illari said as they arrived at their first date place of the day, the Kanezaka cat cafe Meow Heaven. They had each picked a place that they wanted to go to and Kiriko was Meow Heaven. They had sat down at their table watching the cats run around them playing with toys. Illari smiled as a small kitten bounced on her foot.

“Hello, little one.” She whispered, petting it

.

“This place smells,” Hanzo grumbles as Cole looks over to the menu.

“Well, that is cat piss darling.” Cole giggled.

“This is why I would never have a cat, they are–”

“You know I thought this double date was supposed to be a chance for us to have a good time without complaining.” Kiriko said, looking at Hanzo with her big eyes.

“She has you there,” Illari giggled as the waitress came over to take their orders. Soon the four of them sat around petting cats while drinking tea and eating treats. Cole managed to get at least two pictures with Hanzo holding a cat. While Illari and Kiriko found an older cat that was still looking for his forever home. 

“You know I can keep him at my place.” Kiriko said as he slept on Illari’s lap.

“That would be nice, Chuño is a mama’s boy but I’m sure he would love an older brother.” She whispered. Kiriko looked over at Cole and Hanzo Cole holding up a cat that was making the same face as Hanzo. He laughed and took another picture.

“Well maybe when you two move in. We can be a happy family.” 

“Someday.” Illari said as Cole and Hanzo walked back over to them.

“Aww thinking about adopting Barnabus Meowington the 5th.” Cole asked as Hanzo finished off his tea.

“Someday, but we need to move in together and talk first.” Illari said as she let Barnabus run away towards the cat tree. He let out a soft meow looking at them. Kiriko went to grab the adoption information for Barnabus. Illari followed Cole and Hanzo out of the cafe. 

“Alright! Who’s ready for the second date of the day?” Cole said as he pulled out the straws holding them towards the other two. Hanzo grabbed one first followed by Illari. 

“HA! I get to go next.” Hanzo laughed. 

“Hopefully it isn’t somewhere boring like the museum of cups or something.” Illari laughed as Kiriko came running out of the cafe smiling. She slipped some papers into Illari’s bag before kissing her cheek. 

“Alright where are we going darling?” Cole asked, putting an arm around Hanzo.

“The aquarium!”

“Oh! Sounds like fun.” Kiriko said.

“It will be fun! Now don’t ask questions, let's go!” Hanzo grabbed Cole’s hand, dragging him behind. The girls followed giggling. Thankfully for a Saturday, the aquarium was very empty. Hanzo paid for the tickets while Cole and the girls looked through the gift shops. Cole ended up buying a giant plush seal for Hanzo and Kiriko and Illari each got each other a hat. Hanzo was waiting by the entrance. Cole kissed Hanzo’s cheek as he handed him the seal. Hanzo took it and smiled, hugging it close to his chest.

“Thank you, oh and it’s a harp seal! My favorite.” Hanzo smiled up and Cole gave him bedroom eyes.

“God! Why is he this excited to be at the aquarium?” Kiriko laughed. 

“When you can afford to spoil Illari you’ll understand.” Cole laughed, kissing Hanzo’s lips. He smirked, took Cole’s hand, and began their tour of the aquarium. Each stop on their journey was so much fun, Hanzo would explain to them where certain animals came from or were brought in from and facts.

“This fish is the killifish. Sadly, they don’t live for long but they’re so beautiful! Before I said yes to Cole to date him, I paid to have a fish named after him. Sadly he died shortly after.”

“Well, this Cole ain’t planning on dying anytime soon.” 

“I hope not! What would I do without you!”

“Write poems at my grave?”

“I don’t know how I could get through my tears.”

“God I love you.”  The two of them started kissing in front of the tank

“How are we on a double date yet still third wheeling?” Illari asked.

“They have that magic to them. Oh Look! We can pet stingrays!” Kiriko pointed at a sign. The girls rushed off giggling as fast as they could while the two men kept making out. They made their way towards the tanks looking down into the water. The Stingrays played together waiting for people to stick their hands in. Illari kneeled down on a step stool meant for children sticking her fingers into the water. Kiriko kneeled right by her. They knelt there letting the stingrays glide under their fingers. 

“They feel so soft.” Kiriko laughed.

“They do! I always thought they would sting me if I touched it.”

“In their tails would be their stinger,” They looked up to see Hanzo standing there holding his plush seal. Cole was playing with a stingray in another tank. 

“However most of the stingrays they have in these tanks had the stingers removed.”

“Will they be okay without their stingers?” Kiriko asked.

“Yes since they are being taken care of by the amazing team here.” Illari nodded as a stingray nibbled at her fingers.

“I came over here to tell you two that it is feeding time almost for the penguins and the otters.”

“Oh yes please!” Kiriko said getting up, she kneeled down to help Illari up and Hanzo led the way towards the final exhibit. Cole took up the rearing texting someone. 

They arrived at the tanks to see two windows across from each other, one side showed an outdoor pool where some otters bobbled in the water together holding hands with one another and another the penguins who were taking turns sliding down their slide into the water.

“Oh look! Hanzo! You can name a fish after an ex and feed it to a penguin!” Illari said.

“Cole is the only man I dated.”

“But you could still name a dead fish after him.”

“I might, but what if we name a dead fish after Genji.”

“Oh I like that idea more!” Kiriko said as she pulled out her phone to scan the QR code to pay for the name a fish. 

“Aww look at those two penguins with that egg.” Illari said, pointing through the window.

“Oh that’s Elliot and Harvey, they raised about four kids together.”

“Aww they’re gay!” 

“Just like you two.” Cole finally walked over smiling at them.

“Just like who two?”

“The gay penguins.”

“Aww, just like us!” Cole said, putting his arms around Hanzo’s body.

“Don’t aww! Elliot and Harvey are much better than us as a couple.”

“Well we can also raise four little babies if we wanted to.”

“Oh god please don’t start making out again!”

“Quick, let's pick who goes next for the next date.” Illari said, looking at Cole.

“Fine, rock paper scissors.” Cole said, sticking out his fist. After two rounds (Illari won) the four of them made their way back to Hanzo’s apartment that he shared with Illari and Genji. Chuño was waiting by the door when they entered. Illari quickly put a leash on him and looked at the other.

“Since it is almost dinner time, I would like to have a picnic in the park.” She said, grabbing Chuño’s going out bag. Hanzo went to grab two blankets for them to lay on. After a bit he called Illari to his room about something, she gave the leash to Kiriko before running off. Cole went back to texting before looking at Kiriko.

“Are you willing to take Illari home tonight?”

“Back here?”

“No to your place.”

“Why?”

“Well as fun as it is for the four of us to be double dating all day, I have been waiting to rip those clothes off of Hanzo and make love to him.” 

“You know Hanzo is like my big brother right, and it’s so strange to hear you tell me hey I want to bang your bro right here on the couch!”

“We already tried the couch, it was very comfortable.” 

“Ew.”

“Yeah well my roommate is having date night with her girlfriend and Genji is gone being Genji, we don’t want Illari to feel uncomfortable with the two of us–”

“I mean getting Chuño used to my place might be helpful if I want her to move in with me.”

“Perfect after dinner, you two go to your place, we come here.” 

“What are we talking about?” They looked up to see Hanzo and Illari walking out wearing different outfits.

“I had to take off my binder and Illari wanted to wear something different.” He said, handing Cole the blankets.

“That’s alright darling, I was just telling Kiriko here my idea for our final date of the night.” 

“Why are we talking about your date before we go on mine?” 

“Illari is right, also Kiriko remember this outfit?” Hanzo said as Illari took the leash. Kiriko looked at it and groaned. Illari was wearing an old shirt of Hanzo’s Kiriko always tried to borrow 

“Because it hugs your hips so well !”

“ You mean my boobs.”

“No?”

“Kiriko, I know you wished you had my chest and honestly I wish I could give it to you.” Hanzo said as he pushed down on his chest frowning. 

“Why did you keep that?” Illari smiled, grabbing Kiriko’s hand.

“What, you don’t like it? Hanzo said you like how it hugs people’s hips.” She glared at Hanzo who smirked. 

“I won't get rid of clothes, even if I don’t wear them anymore.”

“Let’s go!” Illari said as Kiriko noticed she was wearing an old skirt of Hanzo’s she always wanted also.

“That bitch.”

They stopped at a corner store for some snacks to eat while making their way to one of their favorite parks. As soon as they were past the dog park gates, Illari took the leash off of Chuño and he followed the couples as they walked towards a hill alone in the park. They set up their little picnic area quickly as soon as they took turns throwing the ball for Chuño while they ate. Illari curled up next to Kiriko smiling up at him.

“You know! Hanzo did keep a lot of his fem clothing, you should check it out.”

“That would be fun, I mean we did swap wardrobes after we transitioned.”  

“Really? Kiriko always had such good taste in clothing?” 

“Genji was my personal stylist until I transitioned. Now he’s Hanzo’s.”

“And my younger brother does have pretty good taste.”

“Maybe sometime I can take you shopping,” Illari said as Chuño came over, sitting down on her lap. Kiriko smiled, kissing her cheek.

“Maybe you could come over tonight and raid my closet to see what we like.”

“I would like to find something of yours that fits.” Score 

“Think you would like to raid my closet?” Cole asked Hanzo

“You will never catch me wearing whatever you wear!”

“Aww pumpkin! It’s real American clothing!” 

“I will not look like an extra from some flop cowboy movie.”

“Fine, I’ll look like an extra from a flop cowboy movie, you can look like the leading man from some flop cowboy movie.” Hanzo glared at Cole before kissing his cheek. 

“I hate you.” 

“No you don’t. You are madly in love with me and I know you want us to skip the fourth date and go straight home and make out.” The four of them all looked at each other.

“I mean I think you still owe us a fourth date since we each paid for our dates.” Illari said, looking at Cole.

“Yeah, I’ll go home and make out with you but you buy us all breakfast tomorrow.” Hanzo said

“What?”

“Oh! Can we go to Happy’s Pancake House?” Kiriko giggled 

“Now hold on!” The other three looked at Cole

"I will give you a blow job if you take us out for pancakes tomorrow,"  Hanzo said as he slowly moved his fingers up Cole's chest smiling at him.

"You mean to tell me this whole time, I just needed to give you pancakes for you to give me a blow job?"

"Yes."

"I hate you. Fine pancakes at 9 a.m.," the others cheered while Cole grumbled, crossing his arms and pouting at Hanzo.

"Don't cry! I'll give you the best-"

"Can we not talk about the fact you're giving him a blow job so we can get pancakes at least wait until you two are back home," Kiriko said

"Fine, finish eating don't let this food go to waste." 

After dinner, they said their goodbyes. Illari had her arm wrapped around Kiriko's waist as they walked off towards Kiriko's apartment. Cole and Hanzo took each other hand in hand walking the other way with their gear.

"This blow job better blow me away or else." Cole teased.

"I know what I'm doing. Do you have condoms?" 

"Oh planning on us doing more than just bjs?"

"Yes I knew you were asking Kiriko to take Illari out, so we could have the apartment to ourselves. You better be ready because I won't go easy on you."

"I've ridden many bulls before I'm sure I can handle you," Cole said smiling down at Hanzo as they neared their apartment.

"Oh, but I am no bull. I am a dragon you know that!" Hanzo growled snapping at Cole's nose.

"Spicy Han! Haven't seen him before."

Cole in fact could not handle the dragon. Cole lays in the bed looking towards the ceiling trying to catch his breath. His heart still racing even though they finished a while ago.  While Hanzo snored loudly next to him hugging his plush to his chest. Cole sat up grabbing his phone to check the time. 3:43 am. He set the phone back down only to feel Hanzo grabbing his chest. Cole rolled over putting his arms around Hanzo and kissing his neck. Hanzo hums wiggling his body closer to Cole's body. 

"I think next time we save the dragon and ride the cowboy, don't you think that sounds good?" Cole whispered. 

"Only if I can make you scream my name," Hanzo grumbled wrapping his arms around Cole. 

"I'll scream any word you want me to," Cole whispered nibbling away at his neck. 

"I'll have to think about it after pancakes."

"Really? We just had mind-blowing sex and you are already thinking about food?"

"I'm a growing boy. Also! Happy's Pancakes is open now! We can go and figure out what the best types of pancakes are before Illari and Kiriko get there!" 

"We are now spending four hours at a pancake place pre-gaming pancakes." Cole laughed.

"That might be a red flag for me, if my man can't pre-game a pancake date, I should yawn I should break up." Hanzo nuzzled his face into Cole's chest. Cole laid his chin on the top of Hanzo's head letting sleep overtake his body. Hopefully waking up in the morning would not be that hard of a struggle. Hopefully Kiriko and Illari canceled and they could move pancakes to another day.

"I know what you're thinking."

"What?" Cole looked down at Hanzo who glared at him with death in his eyes.

"We will get my pancakes tomorrow."

"Yes sir."

"Good, now stop thinking I'm trying to sleep." 

"Alright sweetie. Sleep tight." They shared another kiss before going to letting peace and sleep finally winning the fight.
