Washed Away

Aloe

Your eyes widened, and you scrambled to find a towel. You searched through the cabinets under the sink, finding berry scented soaps, razors, deodorants and perfumes.. most of these items looked as though they had been used before. You pulled open a different cabinet, and lo and behold, folded up towels.

The person knocked again, speaking quietly from the other side of the door.
"U-uh.. (y/n)... my uh.. my name is Bubble Man. I heard you were badly burnt, and I brought you some Aloe Vera. And I was wondering if you needed some assistance or anything.. I know everything here must be so confusing."

You opened the door after wrapping yourself in a towel. "Uh.. the Aloe Vera would be nice.. and uh, it's nice to meet you and such.." you hid behind the door a bit.

He gave you a smile, awkwardly handing you the bottle of Aloe. "I don't mean to make you uncomfortable, I wasn't aware you'd be in the bath. I urge you not to feel afraid, unlike the others.. I do not have some of the same human workings. Such as the one that could make me see your body as anything other than a human body." He gave a smile.

You blinked at his nonchalant demeanor about the situation. "Really?"

He nodded. "I wasn't programmed with some of the same feelings and capabilities as the others. My creator didn't really care about making me similar to humans all too much. I can experience emotion on a basic level."

"Well.. I could use your help, I suppose.." you stepped aside to let him in."Bubble Man, right?" You asked. He nodded.
"How can I assist you?

Your back was the worst part that was burned. And it was rather hard to reach. You didn't suspect the robot of lying, and he seemed nice enough. You kept your towel around you, leaning on the sink counter.
"Could you put the aloe on my back? I can't reach it.."
Bubble Man nodded. "No problem." He took the bottle. "Your skin must hurt terribly, I'm sorry." You gave a bit of a nod, and said nothing else. He gently applied the aloe to your back.

"And you must be so terrified, as well... my apologies. I heard that Quick Man is the one who is taking care of you? Don't be afraid of him. He's a little stoic sometimes, and if he gets angry.. it can be troublesome. But he won't hurt you."

You gave a small nod. "I'm not afraid of him. I'm afraid of.. Gemini Man." You shuddered a little. Thinking back on the experience, you still felt bad about not shoving him away from you or saying something. But it had been so awkward.. and scary.

Bubble Man chuckled a little bit. "Gemini won't hurt you either. Sometimes it seems he's a little too friendly. I've got all of the skin on your back covered, I'll leave you be." He gave a smile.

"Wait," you stopped him. You opened up the cabinet and pointed to all the used soaps and other items. "Do these belong to anyone?"
Bubble Man paused and looked at them.

"No." and he left rather quickly.
