In the morning Allison wants to take a shower. When she enters her bathroom she realizes that she emptied her conditioner yesterday. She decides to go to the other bathroom-James' bathroom- and to get a new bottle. She thinks James is still sleeping, without thinking twice she steps into the bathroom without knocking. When she opens the door she sees James standing there completely naked.

"Shit, I'm so sorry." Allison says while taking her hand before her eyes as she starts walking out of his bathroom. James quickly grabs her hand, pushing her back inside and closing the door.

"First you enter my bedroom and now my bathroom, don't you know the word privacy?" James asks playfully as he takes Allison's hand away from her eyes.

"Can you please take a towel and cover yourself up?" Allison asks as she points with her finger to his naked body, looking at the ceiling and biting her lip.

James smirks and turns around to take his towel. Just for a moment Allison loses control over her thoughts and stares at his naked body. She could feel herself getting wet by his beautiful body. But when James put the towel around his body brought her thoughts her back to reality and she looked back to the ceiling.

Allison tries to open the door but James walks up to her and pushes the door close. With his metal hand on the door he leans closely into Allison.

"Why did you come in here when you have your own bathroom Ally?" James asks playfull.

The way he said the short form of her name brought butterflies inside Allison's stomach. She couldn't think clearly anymore as James came every second closer to her.

"I-I" She stumbled over her own words until she clears her throat. "My conditioner is empty so I wanted to get a new one." She tries to explain calmly but her shaky voice betrays her.

"Are you scared of me?" James asks with a serious look on his face.

"No I'm just stressed out when you fill up my personal space!" The words came out of Allison's mouth before she could overthink them.

James smirks but surprisingly takes a step back. Allison takes this as an opportunity to get her confidence back and to speak up. "This would also be easier if you just would have a normal conversation with me without all the sarcasm and playful games."

"I don't like talking to you because you're just analyzing everything that I say." He directly replies.

"You really think I'm not interested in just getting to know you better?" Allison asks.

James looks at the ground, breaking their intense eye contact. "Are you scared I will get to know the real you?" Allison pressed further. This could be her opportunity to get more information out of him, since this was the first time he actually told her how he felt.
