Slow burn (mxm) [SB]

Chapter 17

They walked into the bathroom and Tinka closed the door. Tinka and Simon put their stuff down on the counter next to the sink. "Um..." Simon turned to look at Tinka. "Yeah?" Simon slightly tilted his head. "Should I get undressed first or you?..." Simon shrugged. "We can at the same time"

Tinka nodded and he started taking off his shirt, so did Simon. They both had their shirts off and Tinka could see Simon's scar better while Simon could see Tinka's scars. "Your scar..." Simon kinda nodded. "Yeah... I had to get an surgery and now I have a scar from it..." Tinka nodded. "Alright" Tinka started taking off his pants so Simon also did, they now had their pants off.

"I'm going to lock the door... Saxe knows how to open doors" Simon nodded. "Okay" Tinka turned around and locked the door then turned back to Simon. "Um... we only have-" Tinka nodded and they both blushed a bit. "I can turn away..." Simon shook his head. "I-it's fine..."

Tinka nodded, they both stood there for a bit not doing anything. Tinka got tired of just standing there and took off his boxers then covered himself with his hands, he blushed a lot. "Your turn..." Tinka was looking down at the floor and Simon took off his boxers, he also stepped into the shower then covered himself.

"Ti-Tinka..." Tinka looked up and saw Simon waiting, Simon closed his eyes and Tinka walked over and into the shower then covered himself once again. "Simon..." Simon opened his eyes and looked up at Tinka. "Hi..." Simon shifted a bit. "Can I turn the water on?" Simon nodded. "Yeah but can you have it not be too cold?..." Tinka nodded,  Tinka had to move a bit closer to Simon, Tinka turned the water on and to warmish.

"There?" Tinka backed up from Simon a bit and looked at him. "Thanks..." Tinka shifted a bit. Wait... we're going to have to move our hands at some point... why did I ask to join!? They heard the doorknob try to be turned and Tinka knew it was Saxe. "Saxe!! What?!" They heard Saxe meow 3 times and Tinka blushed. "We're not going to!! And we're not!" Simon looked at Tinka. "What did he say?..."

"He told us not to have sex and asked if we were making out..." Simon was kinda surprised. "Oh... he is a dirty minded cat-" Tinka laughed a bit. "I'm aware" Tinka shifted again. "Fuck it... just don't look..." Simon was confused until Tinka moved his hands, Tinka pulled the shower curtain over so it covered where they were. "If you want to move your hands you may... I won't look" Simon nodded and moved his hands.

"Can we move places?... the water can't really reach me here..." Tinka nodded and moved against the wall, they kinda moved past each other so that Simon was closer to the water than Tinka, Simon was facing away from the water so he was looking at Tinka. "Um, in jail... was the thing where you shouldn't grab the soap off the floor true?..."

"Yes... I never dropped mine but I did see it happen about 6 times... I have lost track of how many times... but the guards would never do anything, some of them would even laugh while that happened and if anyone tried to intervene and stop it a guard would make them bend over and it would happen to them... we were meant to ignore what was happening... I did after it happened once... I also saw when a person didn't do it when the person in front of them dropped theirs and went to grab it... the guard forced him to then put him in solitary confinement for 2 weeks... jail is a sick and disgusting place, and not just because of the other prisoners..."

Simon nodded. "I thought it was just a myth people would spread around and I didn't know the guards were that bad..." Tinka nodded. "Yeah... but I would rather go back there than stay free if I ever do one of my crimes ever again..." Simon kinda tilted his head. "Why?... if you would like to tell me..." Tinka kinda shifted. "Because in there I know I'm actually serving time for doing something that I shouldn't have instead of just being free and living with the guilt... in my opinion it's better to just serve the time than deal with the constant guilt of what you did... but they may be because of what my own crimes were" Simon nodded. "That makes sense..."

"Yeah. now we should probably actually take a shower instead of standing here in water while talking" Simon nodded. "Yeah-" Simon washed his hair while Tinka stood there looking away. This actually isn't that bad... Simon hasn't done anything and I haven't either... I was originally worried about Simon wanting to do something to me. I must have forgotten that Simon isn't like that... It's been a while since I've had a shower with a person by choice- that's mostly due to being in jail for 6 years... it has been probably 8 years at this point... 

Simon was done washing his hair and he looked at Tinka who was leaning against the back of the shower and looking off to his right, he was also smiling a bit, Simon got kinda confused. "Tinka?" Tinka looked over at Simon. "Yes?"

"I'm done washing myself... I washed my body while washing my hair-" Tinka nodded. "Alright, want to stand over here then?" Simon slighty nodded. "Sure" They switched places again and Tinka washed himself while Simon looked down at the floor. Why was Tinka smiling?... Was he thinking about something?... most likely- of course he was thinking about something!

Simon's mind went a bit weird now. Oh god... let's not think about that!! Simon noticed he got turned on so he quickly moved his hands to cover himself. Fuck! Simon blushed a lot while Tinka was completely unaware of what was happening with Simon, he finished washing himself and looked at Simon and saw him blushing a lot. "Simon?... Are you okay?" Simon looked up at Tinka. "Ye-yeah!"

"Are you sure?" Tinka moved a bit closer to Simon. "I-I'm fine!" Tinka kinda nodded. "Alright..." Tinka didn't exactly believe Simon but didn't want to push him to answer.
