Jongin smiles softly as his hands travel across his lover's back; they're warm and correspond well with the lingering water droplets. His hands cascade down Taemin's shoulders as he dips his head down to press a kiss to his nape. Water droplets blend with his lips as the kiss lingers against Tae's warm, wet skin.
Jongin reaches towards the white bottle of shampoo that lingered in the corner of the bathtub, latching onto it tightly so it doesn't slip out of his hand. He squeezes some of its contents onto his hand and rubs his palms together.
Tae's comfortable. His body and mind are relaxed, which was a nice break from the previous days of stress. All of his worries and concerns washed away with the water that trailed down his back, into the bath. Jongin tangles his hands into his boyfriend's hair and massages until there is a sufficient amount of suds in his hair. Tae softly moans as his hands massage at his scalp; Jongin smiles and kisses his shoulder.
It's rare, seeing this side of Taemin. They're always busy, they never get to just relax. There was always something that came up or something they needed to film. Their lives were ruled by the public eye, and they never had any free time because of it. Taemin's always worried about something, whether it be his next comeback or what he's going to get for lunch- there's always something plaguing his mind.
He's different here, like this- Calm. He's relaxed and content, happy that their schedules had finally lined up. It's been so long since they had some actual alone time, it was a nice change.
Jongin was glad they'd decided to stay inside for the one day they had together. The could have seen a movie, or maybe went out to eat, something like that. But they're tired, practically exhausted from the busy week they'd both had. Most of Tae's consisted of concerts and promoting since he'd just released an album. Jongin's mainly consisted of horribly long dance practices. They knew it'd be best to stay inside, resting with each other, catching up. It was also best that they stay out of the public's eye, the last thing they needed was for people to find out about their relationship.
They didn't really care about what the public thought, but they did care about their careers. They knew they'd probably be down the drain if something like that slipped out.
Tae relaxes his body onto Jongin's, letting all of his weight slouch against his boyfriend. Jongin's hands abandon his hair and trail down his arms, leaving a trail of bubbles wherever he touches. Tae sighs as Jongin rests his head into the crook of his neck. He presses a kiss to the warm, watery skin as Taemin sits up. Jongin grabs a cup and fills it with water. Tae shivers as the water falls down into his hair, he hadn't realized how cold it had gotten.
"I love you," Tae mumbles as Jongin pours another cup of water into his hair, his hand lightly shaking through the strands to get the soap out.
Jongin sighs and continues rinsing out his boyfriend's hair. He's happy. "I love you, too," he sits the cup down. Dipping his head down to kiss his cheek, he asks, "Do you want conditioner?" Tae nods.
Tae really didn't need conditioner in his hair, for it had been the previous night. But he wanted it. He didn't want this moment to end, not yet.
Jongin hums in response and raps his arms around Taemin's small frame. The water splashed at the sudden movement. It was no longer hot, it was merely warm. Tae knew that it'd turn cold if they stayed in it longer. He didn't care.
His lover kisses along his shoulder to his neck and sighs against the soft skin, his breath warm. "I've missed you," he says into the crook of Taemin's neck. Tae's body relaxes into Jongin's and molds to his lips. Jongin's teeth light graze his skin, ever so slightly nibbling at places. "So much."
