“Go enjoy Pookie.” He shifted out of the way and Mr. Blackbourne shifted into the bathroom where the warmth hit me. I glanced over and Kota smiled standing up from the bath his sleeves rolled up. His hand slowly shifted up and caressed my cheek and I shivered as the warm water touched my cheek. 

Mr. Blackbourne placed a soft kiss on my head before carefully setting me on my feet. Shivering as the warmth of the air hit my body I wrapped my around my stomach. Kota stepped forward rubbing his hands up and down the back of my arms trying to warm me up. “Take it slow and relax as long as you need to.” Mr. Blackbourne whispered taking his leave. 

Kota shifted closer and placed a very soft kiss on my cheek and I could feel my heart pounding as his lips touched mine. His arm wrapped around my waist and I was pulled close against his chest. Blushing I clung to his shirt as he deepened the kiss. 

As he slowly pulled back allowing me a breath of air my eyes dazed and I blushed bright red. My hand shifted to my lips touching the place where Kota’s soft lips had been only moments before. Pounding hard against my chest my heart seemed to explode as I stepped closer and he pulled me into another kiss. This time I was ready as I placed my lips on his and we pressed against each other once more. 

This time I broke the kiss and slowly rested my forehead against his chest letting out soft breaths of air. His hand rubbed my shoulder’s softly. “Are you okay?” 

My eyes rushed to meet his and I met worry. “Yes… did you not like it?” I whispered my heart shattering as my body began to shake with nerves. 

“Sang it was amazing.” He answered instantly drawing me closer and lightly caressed my cheek. “Don’t over think. It was wonderful. I like you so much Sang.” He leaned forward placing another soft kiss on my lips before rubbing my shoulders. “Now go soak in the bath and get warm.” I nodded smiling softly and he closed the door as he stepped out of the room. 

My body shivering, I carefully removed my clothes stepping into the bath. Shaking I curled up in the warmth resting my arm on the side of the bath making sure not to get it wet. I closed my eyes letting myself slip under the water thinking. 

All of the guys were amazing. Everything was going so well but something was still bothering me in my stomach. Most of the guys had kissed me and I still didn’t know how I felt about it. Did I love them? How could I possibly pick one of them if they asked me to choose? The knot got bigger in my stomach and there was a knock on the door. Instantly, I shot up the water splashing. 

“Y-Yes?” I called out nervously my mind still on the questions floating in my head. 

“Trouble?” I shifted standing up from the bath. My eyes focused on the shadows under the door as I bit my lip softly. 

“Yes.” I responded. I heard shuffling outside the door and I paused not moving out of the bath. 

“Do you want me to wash your hair?” My eyes widened and I let out a breath of relief. Moving about I hit the drain on the tub before stepping out. 

“Yes please.” I whispered. “Could you give me a moment?” 

“Take your time Trouble. I am going to get your clothes.” There were soft footsteps and I stepped out of the bath drying myself off and then wrapping myself up with a large grey towel. The soft touch on my skin helped calm my nerves and there was another knock. 

Shifting to the door I unlocked it and Gabriel stepped into the room. He smiled holding a pile of clothes and placed them to the side. “Let’s get to work on that hair.” His hands lightly touched my shoulders moving me to the side as he got a stool out of the closet and guided me to sit. 

Leaning back into the seat, I closed my eyes as Gabriel ran his hands through my hair washing it. My mind floated back to my questions and it wasn’t until Gabe shook my shoulder’s that I came back. “Easy…” He whispered slipping his hand to my cheek. “Sang?” His voice was soft and I realized I was shaking. Sitting up quickly I covered my face with my hands my wet hair falling around my shoulders soaking my towel. What if they didn’t like me if I told them I liked them all? 

“N-n-n-n-n-no fucking hell…” He rushed out catching my shoulders and wrapping my hair up into a towel before rushing in front of me. “Sang…” I leaned against his shoulder slightly shaking hard. “Okay girlie easy take a few breaths.” I nodded taking shaky breaths and held the towel tight to my chest. “There we go…” He whispered softly caressing my cheek as the shaking subsided. “Let me get you into something warm and then we can have something warm to drink.” He whispered meeting my eyes with his as I nodded. “Good. Now lay back nice and easy and let me finish your hair.”

Laying down very slowly, Gabriel’s hands rushed under my neck helping. I let out a slow breath and he carefully removed the towel finishing up quickly and bow drying my hair taking most the water out of it. Offering a hand he carefully helped me stand before handing me the clothes. “I am right outside the door.” 

With a nod the door closed and slowly I shifted to the clothes, the warmth of the long green sleeved shirt and black jeans made me shiver. Taking a few deep breaths I rubbed my face a little before I pulled open the door. Gabriel was standing inches away and turned as I stepped out of the bathroom. His arms were instantly around my sides holding me close as he rubbed my back slowly. 

“I gotcha.” He whispered and slipped his hands into mine before carefully leading me to Mr. Blackbourne’s room. I watched as he turned down the bed and guided me to curl up and rest. His hand caressed my cheeks as I slowly laid down. “Trouble is something bothering you?” His eyes searched mine and I instantly opened my mouth but my voice caught. 

I wanted to tell him about my doubts about every single little thing that had happened so far and how I really didn’t want the guys to hate me but I couldn’t. I didn’t want to take that chance with him. What if he got hurt as well and didn’t want me around any more? I wouldn’t be able to handle that. Closing my mouth I shook my head no and closed my eyes relaxing slowly into the pillow. I could feel Gabriel hesitate before continuing to caress my cheek. “Do you want me to get someone?” He asked drawing closer. 

I shook my head catching his hand and lightly tugging him. Catching the hint, he carefully slipped under the covers with me and pulled me close to his body. I breathed in his fruity scent and I relaxed resting my head on his chest. His hands wrapped around my sides and placed a soft kiss on my head. “Just rest for a little bit. We don’t have anywhere to be.” I nodded closing my eyes once again. 

It was a while before either of us moved from the bed. The covers made me warmer and the comfort of Gabriel’s hands helped as well. But the moment had to end as Gabriel slowly pulled away from me his forehead resting against mine and he slowly leaned in placing a soft kiss on my lips. Blushing I hid my face in his chest and he smiled softly.
