He had been so gentle, softly caressing her body while washing away the muck she had accumulated, scrubbing her scalp softly until her hair had turned shiny and soft between his fingers. She wanted to remain inside that pool forever, making each other laugh and playing hide and seek under the water -Ominis being surprisingly good at it -. They had enjoyed the solitude with the enthusiasm of kids without supervision, stealing wet kisses, relaxing in each other's presence, letting their hearts go back to a lower pace, only disrupted with a kiss on the neck or a touch under the belt line.

But as the minutes went by, her fingers pruned, and they both became restless, so she followed between giggles when he headed for the stairs without saying a word. As he came out of the pool, Ominis messed up his hair and splattered water around and over her. The white shirt was uncomfortably tucked against his skin due to the water, and a vest tightly wrapped around his middle. His shoulders somehow looked wider than usual.

She walked barefoot toward the entrance and grabbed a towel, sitting neatly beside the door. She leaned her body forward but laughed at herself when she realized Ominis could not enjoy the show she was putting on for him. However, when she looked up, she noticed his attention on her, all the while removing his vest. He bit his lower lip, listening intently as the fabric grazed her.

- Why are you standing so far away? – She averted her eyes while drying her hair.

It was suddenly embarrassing to look at him, even after playing in the water and touching each other without restraint. But all of a sudden, the weight of their intimacy and solitude made her nervous.

However, emboldened by her words, Ominis tried a few steps closer. When he didn't hear her retreat, he took it as an invitation. His arms raised naturally to surround her middle.

- Let me – he took the towel from between her hands -. I want to do it for you.

She swallowed hard, especially when he started putting pressure on her shoulder, down the line of her back, patting her hips dry and tenderly coming lower to her thighs. A single tear of moisture escaped her folds and dripped down her leg, stopping on her calf.

His arms came around once more, this time going up her navel and drying between her breasts, tickling the spot where her heart beat wildly. She embarrassedly closed her eyes at the prospect of him feeling her panic.

His head came lower to whisper in her ear.

- Turn around.

She obeyed.

- Darling – his finger brought her chin up -. Is this upsetting you?

Her head moved sideways vehemently.

His smile turned soft.

- I want you – this made the breath catch in her throat -. Desperately.

She gave an out-of-breath laugh, almost scared out of her wits.

- But if you are unsure, you know what to do. Right?

She nodded.

- I must... push you away.

He nodded and closed his eyes.

- That's right. Just say it, and I will stop.

Her chest was heaving, her eyes following his hand, patting her arms dry.

- I ...– he swallowed – I have never... I fear I may disappoint you.

She sighed.

- It's my first time too – she licked her lower lip -. But it's you, Omi. You are the one I want.
