Shiro Braids Allura's Hair

Backstory: (Shiro and Allura have been dating for a few months.) Somehow, Allura has never heard of a braid before. Shiro is happy to help.

Shiro touched Allura's neck gently with the knuckles of his left hand, his right hand touching her silky white hair.

"Can I braid your hair?"

Allura turned, pressing her chin to her shoulder to look back at Shiro.

"What is a braid?"

"You don't-.... Here. I'll show you."

Shiro reached up to the top of Allura's hair, gently using his finger to separate her thick hair into three segments. Allura faced forward, allowing Shiro to introduce her to this...braid. Every time he reached to make another twist in the braid, one of his warm fingers would briefly touch the edge of Allura's face.
Shiro has never braided hair as long or as thick as Allura's, but it wasn't too hard. Her hair parted easily.
He kept twisting, his rough hands carefully laying each strand over another as he climbed down the length of her hair. Reaching the bottom, he expertly tied Allura's hair off with a single twist and a gentle knot.

"There."

Allura immediately reached back, dark fingers running over the length of her pale braid.

She jumped up and rushed into her bathroom, dress flowing behind her as she rushed. Shiro came into the bathroom, smiling. She was using the double mirror to see Shiro's work. 

"Fascinating! It's like... a pattern!"

"I'm glad you like it."

"I love it." She said enthusiastically, grasping Shiro by his elbows to pull him forward and press her lips against his.
