“It’s okay when I do it,” he nonchalantly said and I pulled my head back, wiping a tear.

I stood in the bathroom doorway after I napped for an hour. Antonio was sitting on the edge of the bathtub.
“Didn’t know you were into bubble baths,” I teased, watching the bubbles rise and he looked up at me.
“I’m not. But you are,” he crossed his hands on his lap, turning his body to face me.
“So you just coincidentally prepared a bubble bath?” I asked, grabbing my toothbrush and squeezing toothpaste onto it.
He laughed, shaking his head. “I had Amelia pack a bag for you, and while you were asleep I went and picked it up. She actually packed four bags and said that everything needed its own bag… she also said you’d understand.”
I couldn’t help but smile as I brushed my teeth, nodding my head. “And how did you know I’d be awake in time?” I asked, looking at myself in the mirror as I tucked a few loose strands of hair behind my ears.
“It’s seven o’clock on a Saturday morning,” he said and I stopped brushing my teeth, turning to him. “I know your bodyverywell,” he gave me a single nod and I smiled, continuing to brush my teeth.
He turned the tap off and I rinsed my mouth.
I turned to face him entirely, pulling his t-shirt over my head.
“Are you going to join me, or…”
CHAPTER 34
Nirah
HIS EYES SLOWLY trailed down my naked body as I lowered one foot into the bathtub, then the other.
I sat down, laying back as I closed my eyes. “This feels nice,” I sighed.
I could feel his eyes on me as I lay, fighting back a mischievous grin.
I lifted my head, peeking at him through my left eye, and temptation swirled behind his eyes. I smiled, opening my right eye.
“So you are just going to watch me then?” I chuckled, and the corners of his mouth lifted into a tight grin. “Wipe that look off your face,” I shook my head. “I’m trying to relax.”
I closed my eyes again, laying my head back, and soon I heard him getting in as well. He took my foot in his hands and slowly began massaging it. I let out a heavy, satisfactory sigh.
“It’s not fun if you’re over there,” he said, and I could hear he wasn’t happy.
“It’s not supposed to befun. It’s supposed to be relaxing.”
“Well, can you come and relax over here instead?” he gently tugged my foot.
“No. I don’t trust you to keep your hands to yourself,” I said, keeping my eyes closed, and there was a brief pause as he switched to my other foot.
“I won’t touch you. Promise,” he said, and I laid still for a while.
Opening my one eye, I sighed, and he smiled. “Are you going to poke me in the ass?” I asked, opening my other, and he nodded.
“Probably, yes.”
“See what I mean?” I shot back.
“Would you like me to get out, jerk off, and come back?” he asked, and I smiled.
“Yes, actually. I would.”
