Kako no hikari

Part four

I didn't realize how many scars were there before but now that I was nude in front of  a mirror I could see them all. There were at least 20 scars ranging from large to small on my back. I'm lucky they only scared my back and not anywhere else or I wouldn't be able to hide them. I finally entered the shower. The hot water streamed down my body. I let out a couple moans of glee as I scrubbed off the invisible dirt on me. I think I stood in the shower for 30 minutes just standing under the shower head.

"Kasei if you stay in there any longer you'll become a frail grape." Dosei said with a mocked tone.
"What if I do turn into a frail grape? What will you do?" I said turning the water off.
"I'll sell you at a fruit stand, but I doubt you'll sell for much." He said, and I heard him stand up.
"That's rude, I bet I would sell for a lot of money considering how cute I am." I grabbed one towel and put it around my waist, and another and put it over my shoulder to hide the scars from Dosei. I walked out of the bathroom and Dosei was on my bed. I could tell he had also taken a shower.

I went to my dresser to grab a pair of underwear, and slipped them on. Then I went and sat next to Dosei and dried my hair with a third towel.
"You took a shower?"
"Yeah, you were taking forever." He said then sat up from his lying position.
"Was it really that long?" He grabbed the towel and started to dry my hair for me.
"I would say forty minutes is a long time."
"That's not that long if you asked me." was forty minutes really that long of a shower.
"Well for you; if you could you would never get out of the shower." he delicately dried my hair
"What's so wrong with enjoying a shower for a long period of time."
"Nothing but, it's not good for your skin if you stay in it for too long." He had finished drying my hair.
"Ok what if I only take showers for 30 minutes." I said , grabbing his hand in mine.
"Ok." I could see his mouth slightly move in contentment.
"What do you want to do now?" I say laying down on the bed to look at the ceiling.
"Cuddle?" Dosei said quietly.
"Come here!" I grab him, pulling him down beside me and wrap my arms around him.
You could see the shock on his face.
"Kasei?" he whispered.
"Yeah?" I mumbled back from his chest where I had laid my head.
"Nothing." he then wrapped his arms around me and pulled me even closer.
"Are you happy?" I ask, happy myself with cuddling Dosei
"Mmmh" He mumbled in response.

Before I knew it we had both fallen asleep. I was curious about what I would dream about since I haven't dreamed of anything for a month straight.
