You had been the first to go out of the sauna and into the hot tub. You much preferred being in a hot tub anyway, feeling the water sway with you. It calmed you.
The rest of the team were still in the sauna, probably sitting naked now that you were gone, being the only female on the team. You were grateful that they had the decency to cover up while you were in there.
In the hot tub you relaxed by yourself, looking up at the night sky. Today's mission had taken longer than expected and all of you needed to relax, using the hot steam and in your case water, to relax all the tension in your bodies.
Every minute that went by you felt the knots fade away, and your shoulders dropped, not feeling as tense anymore.
The sounds of the water hitting the edge was the only thing heard, out here it was only silence. That's if you were alone, if you were with the rest of the team that might be a different story.
"Do you mind if I join you, Schatz?" Maybe you thought too soon.
You opened your eyes, and looked up at your colonel. He still had his mask on and some swim shorts, and you wondered how he survived the heat inside the sauna.
"Not at all." You sat upright and made room for him opposite you, since you had used the seat as a place for your legs to rest.
"How do you breathe with your mask?" You decided to ask after a couple of comfortable minutes in silence. It was even hard for you at times in the hot tub, and it was especially hard in the sauna.
"It is quite easy, mein Liebling." You chuckled, shaking your head at his response. Of course it was easy for him, everything was easy for him. He was a giant made out of pure muscle.
"You find that funny?" His head tilted to the side as he watched you, his eyes crinkling at the side, a tell tale sign that he was smiling.
"Not really, just unfair. I can barely last five minutes in the sauna. That's why I'm always the first one out."
"Ahh," He nods in understanding, while seeming to be thinking about something. "It's easy to learn, I could teach."
Your eyebrows shot up, your colonel wasn't usually this nice to you. His usual demeanour is either shouting commands or ignoring you. You two hadn't really talked.
That, though, did not stop you from staring at him.
The way he walked, hips swaying majestically, every muscle moving with precision. The shapeshift mask, made of a shirt, made him look so vicious and mysterious. And you couldn't lie you had a thing for men in masks.
"You want me to teach you, mein Liebe?" You hadn't realised that he had gotten closer until he spoke up. Instead of sitting opposite you he now sat beside you. Not touching, but for some reason you wanted him to.
Your only response to him was to nod, the words disappearing from your mouth.
That's exactly when the sauna door opened, the steam rolling out between the legs of the rest of the team.
"We're going to skip the hot tub today, heading straight to bed." One of them let you two know, not even taking a second look to see you so close together.
When they had disappeared around the corner, you looked back towards König who was eyeing you up and down like you were prey.
"You want me to teach you to breathe?" It seemed so innocent but the way he said it made it sound so seductive.
You again nodded, looking up at him. The way he was making you feel right now made your breath turn shallow and quick. On the brink of turning dizzy.
"Relax," His hand brushed lightly against the side of your thigh, gliding up till he met your beating heart. Your breath hitched when his hand stopped, right on your chest, practically touching your boob.
