This has got to be the worst thing that's ever happened to me. This is just the worst. It's demeaning. Here I am naked, taking a warm shower after a couple of ghastly days of doing without. But I can't even enjoy the relaxing water or my vanilla jasmine scented body wash. Why? It's because beyond the white microfiber shower curtain -- approximately one meter away -- there's a degenerate sitting on the toilet waiting for me to finish. And soon after, it would be his turn and I'd have to wait for him as well.

I really hope he's not peeking. Good lord, why did I even fight with him and worsen the threshold? One meter. We have to be near each other within one meter. I want to scream at him right now and blame him for making our situation worse a while back by being rude. But I know I can't because if I do then that one meter will dwindle even more and I don't know where we will end up.

I just have to suck it up. I have no choice but to endure for now. Find a way to get along and widen the threshold one way or another.

"I'm done." I turn off the chrome shower faucet and wrap myself with a white cotton towel. "I'm getting out of the shower. Are you looking up and facing west?"

"Yes," Sasuke mumbles and I pull on the shower curtain. I see Sasuke facing the wall and looking at the ceiling with only a towel covering the lower part of his body. His back is smooth, quite muscular. The man has a nice butt too.

Stop it.

What the hell am I thinking? I shake my head to get rid of my thoughts. Quickly, I try to put on my underwear and change into my black lace nightie.

"You can turn now," I tell Sasuke as I sit on the toilet. Sasuke passes me and walks into the shower soon after without looking at me.

Hmm. Sasuke's chest and arms are quite toned. Then again, I shouldn't be surprised about that and the fact that he has a six-pack and a prominent v-line. I doubt he became one of the most powerful ninjas living right now by being a couch potato. There's nothing wrong with acknowledging that. I'm definitely not checking him out. I'm just stating a fact.
