Day 4 - Ginny's birthday Extravaganza

A/N: This is my first time writing for this fandom and I'm happy it is a gift for my most beautiful girl @otomiya-tickles! I LOVE YOU NDKDNDJFKF

Summary: While Karlyle relishes on his new life, Ash makes an interesting discovery.

Waking up between Ash Jones' arms was still something Karlyle couldn't get used to. Seeing Ash's beautiful face when he opened his eyes in the morning always set free thousands of butterflies within him, especially when those pretty eyes were looking back at him so fondly and lovingly. 

He started to enjoy staying in bed after the alarm rang off, cuddling with his boyfriend, enjoying a shower of kisses and praises that always set his face on fire. He loved Ash so tenderly, it scared him. When will the time come when Ash gets fed up with him? Would it be tomorrow or three years from now? In an hour or until the end of their days?

Just thinking about Ash telling him that he didn't love him anymore was enough to make him feel so anxious and scared of the future. A future without Ash in it… was that even possible?

But he knew it was stupid to have these thoughts. Ash loved him and Karlyle also loved him very much. It was useless to think about the things that could go wrong, he knew he should focus in the here and now with Ash kissing the crook of his neck and his warm, big hand resting in that spot that, somehow, always made him jump at the back of his ribs. 

This was an important moment. The future could wait because now he had Ash and he wasn't going to let him go any time soon. 

"Lyle?" Ash's voice was raspy and it made Karlyle's heart flutter. He looked up with a blush covering his cheeks and the bridge of his nose and Ash smiled warmly at him. "You know, I've noticed that if I touch a spot around here you- oh..."

Karlyle had barely time to register what was going on before he broke into a fit of sweet, bubbly and deep laughter. He jerked away from the tender touch on the back of his ribs and hid his face against Ash's chest.

Uh… what has happened? 

"Karlyle," Ash said breathlessly, his eyes widening. "Are you ticklish?"

Karlyle was speechless as he tried to regain his breath. He looked up at Ash, his mouth trembling with a little smile. 

Ash had barely brushed his fingers against that spot on his back, but he felt a strong urge to laugh as the weirdest of sensations assaulted him. So this was tickling? 

Of course he had felt a little ticklish before. Sometimes Ash kissed his neck in a certain way that had him jerking a little. Sometimes Ash also touched his thighs too lightly and he felt like he wanted to crawl out of his skin, but it was never enough to make him laugh like this. 

"I don't… I don't know? I've never- I didn't-"

Karlyle widened his eyes slightly when Ash leaned down to capture his lips in a kiss. His lover chuckled, pulling apart to nuzzle his nose against Karlyle's.

 "Of course," he said tenderly. "Here, let me show you all about it."

"W-Wait, you- AHAHAHA! H-Hohohold ohon!"

Karlyle was startled when Ash's fingers were on the back of his ribs again, now attacking both sides with gentle pinches and clawing at the spot. Karlyle squirmed, pressing himself tighter against Ash's body, his hands desperately trying to reach back to stop Ash's playful ones. 

This was crazy. This sensation was something Karlyle wasn't sure he had felt before, but there he was, laughing brightly like a stupid person as Ash tickled him. 

"Karlyle, the back of your ribs seem to be very ticklish. What about the front?"

Karlyle threw his head back in hysterical laughter when he felt Ash's fingertips digging into the front of his ribs. Clawing against the spaces in-between and rubbing his thumbs against the sensitive bones. 

"Ahahahash! Wahahahait, plehehease! Thahahat's- ahahaha!" 

He was ruthless. Laughing along Karlyle, Ash tickled his ribs profusely, making Karlyle let out the most embarrassing sounds ever as he tried to escape Ash's clutches, but every time he was about to break free, his lover would wrap his arms around his waist and bring him right back into his tickly trap, making him shriek. 

"Oh goodness, Lyle. How is it that I didn't know about this?" Ash asked as he clawed at Karlyle's belly, making him giggle brightly. "I still think your ribs are your most ticklish spot, but you seem very sensitive all over."

"Ahahahash! I dohohon't- ahahaha! Plehehease not thehehere!"

Yes, he also agreed on his ribs being the most ticklish, he wanted to scream whenever Ash's fingers found that spot. It was so overwhelming, but why was it also so fun?

Ash's fingers were gentle, fluttering from spot to spot having Karlyle confused as he tried to stop him. Ash's laugh filling his ears over his own laughter. Ash's embrace, preventing him from rolling away in the big bed. Everything was just… so perfect and fun for Karlyle, he thought he couldn't completely hate this. 

But he felt a little out of breath.

"A-Ahahahash? Ple-hehehease! I cahahahan't!" 

Ash chuckled and he finally stopped. Karlyle collapsed against him as he wrapped him tightly in an embrace. Soft kisses were pressed against his neck and he shivered slightly. 

"... I told you to wait," Karlyle said with a little pout on his lips and Ash laughed, hugging him tighter. 

"Ow, I'm sorry. I couldn't help myself, look, I'll show you my weakest spot."

Karlyle turned around so he could face Ash again, his eyes widening slightly. "Will you?"

Ash chuckled, "yes! It's right here, you see?" He said, lifting his arm slightly to point the hidden spot under it. "But you gotta be careful because I'm very sens- pff- ahahaha! I'm tehehehelling y-you thahat- Kahaharlyle!" 

That was definitely fun and the thoughts fogging his mind quickly went away, he definitely had to tickle Ash more often... even if that meant he would get tickled too. Not that he minded too much anyways.
