Bates got to the last button on my shirt and my heart beat rapidly against my chest causing my breath to quicken against his lips. My fingers ran down his ab muscles, dipping in and out of the grooves until they met the small hairs underneath his navel as he let out a soft moan.

My fingers hooked his waistline tugging downward easily and he smiled at my eagerness. He slid his bottoms down and stepped out of them then taking off his splint which was very difficult but successful then finally sat back relaxing into the bathtub.

"Your turn," he said with his famous, lazy smirk. I smiled back nervously while biting my lip.

He's going to sit back and enjoy watching me undress, this should be interesting for us both. You can do it, Quinn.

I slid my button-down shirt off of my arms and let it drop to the floor then reached for the buttons on my pants. I glanced over at him and saw that he was adding bubbles to the running water while swishing it around with his hand, my pants fell to my feet leaving me in only my light pink lacy bra with matching panties and flushed cheeks. I quickly unhooked my bra and stepped out of my panties while he wasn't looking so I wouldn't feel the pressure of putting on a show for him.

I took a step toward the bathtub and I felt his eyes on me, I looked up and sure enough, his gaze was fixed on my bare naked body drinking me in, his green pools squinted while moving from my eyes, to my breasts, moving down my belly then to my toes and finally back up to my eyes.

He held his hand out to me and I accepted it appreciating his kindness. The tub was full and the bubbles were almost to the point of flowing over the sides as I eased one foot in noticing that it was quite a bit warmer than when I'd ran it. I stepped in all the way as Bates opened his legs and I nestled between them with my back to his chest while the bubbles covered me.

"This feels so good.... so relaxing." I said enjoying the warmth of the water and Bates behind me along with watching the steam rise above us.

"You took the words from my mouth." He said with a chuckle. "I want you to know that I really enjoy you being here and staying here with me." He said as he raked his finger across my neck. "I want to be here with you, Bates. If this wouldn't have happened to you, I'd probably be sitting in my dorm room thinking of how I could see you." I said leaning my head back on his shoulder while resting my hands on his legs as he makes small circles on my shoulder with his finger.

I closed my eyes enjoying every aspect of this moment, just being with him and how my feelings are starting to grow. I can't seem to find not one flaw about him and I just hope it continues on that way.

His fingers started to travel to the front of my neck as he leaned his mouth toward my ear. "Let me give you a bath," I turned my neck to look up at him and responded, "I should be doing that for you, not the other way around." He reached over grabbing a washcloth dipping it into the water, "Oh come on, you may never want to bathe alone again if you let me."

I already feel that way.

"I can never win with you," I let out a laugh as he massaged the bar of soap in the washcloth then setting it back down in the soap dish.

He didn't answer except for kissing my forehead. I turned my head back to the front with my eyes still closed as I felt the washcloth ever so gently touch the skin right below the front of my neck. I tilted my head up for better access as he slid it to my left shoulder then to my right leaving a soapy trail of tiny bubbles.

I couldn't hold in the soft moan that escaped from me. He continued up to each sides of my neck being so gentle then bringing it back to the water dipping it again. He brought it up to the back of my neck as I tilted my head forward sitting up, with my eyes closed, I couldn't help but picture him doing this to me and somehow that made me hotter than the water would if it were boiling.
