Within The Ash

Chapter 72

Lauren's POV

Violet stepped in the river and took her cloths off, tossing them at my feet where i stood on the bank of the river.

I watched her in curiosity as she washed her naked body with a small piece of soap that Zero had given her a couple days ago.

Zero had given us all soap that he had got from the farmer but told me not to say where he got it because the farmer was a very too himself type of man and didn't like visitors.

Violet glanced over at me and snickered.

"We are both girls, you don't have to wait till I'm done to come bathe" she said as she gestured for me to come into the water.

With that I undressed and walked into the river with her.

Id be lying if i said i wasn't jealous of her body. He hips were round and her butt was big as well as her boobs. Her skin was a dark shade of pale with not even one blemish upon the smoothness of her face and breasts.

She glanced down at me and raised a brow at my staring.

"Are you staring?" she asked with a devilish smile.

"No" was all i said before she rolled her eyes and continued to wash her breasts in a taunting way.

"You're too skinny you know" she said with an evil grin as i began to wash myself as well.

I glanced down at my body as she rudely pointed out all my flaws that I didn't even know were flaws until she spoke them into existence.

"One of your breasts are bigger than the other, both of your breasts are small and dainty, your hips look like a box and your skin is patchy. I personally believe freckles are ugly as fuck" She turned her head to only grin at me before looking back down at her own body with pleasure.

"I don't understand what Zero sees in such a fugly little slut" She snickered her words and they cut deep like a knife right into my core.

I held back tears as she continued to speak as the water in my eyes dared to spill over the seems.

She rested her brown eyes on me with disgust as she rinsed her shiny black hair and threw it back with her head. I watched her hair fly through the air and land upon her bare freckle less back.

She than walked out of the water and passed Zero not even bothering to put her clothes back on. He only glanced at her but looked away once he saw her naked body. He ignored her but it still made me sad that she was purposely walking around naked in front of him just to to get under my skin.

Zero seemed to be deep in thought at her actions and directed his attention at me through a squint in his eyes before walking over to me where I stood in the river.

He glanced down at me with blue eyes of love and spun me around to where my back was facing him.

He took the bar of soap out of his pocket and began gently lathering my freckle covered back.

"Zero?" I said timidly as i felt his hands massage my back ever so tenderly.

"mm?" He said with a melody in his tone.

"Am i ugly?"

He didn't answer me at first and went silent as he spun me around to look at me. Concern written all over his face as he looked down at me through his eyebrows that bend down over half his eyes.

"Why would you say such a thing?" He asked as he lathered his hands with soap and massaged my face with his big hands.

"Violet is so beautiful and I'm well, not her" I said lowering my face to look at the water.
