Safe With Me

Chap. 27: What Was That For?

• Elle Bradley in shower above •

The warm water flows over Elle's head and naked body, her eyes closed tightly. She had waited until late at night to shower, wanting to be alone. The blonde sniffs as she grabs the bar of soap. Echos of the gun shot haunt her mind.

             If I only could have saved him! Elle's small tears mix with the shower water, Why did Brody stop me? I could have had the money in no time if he had just let me!
    
              Suddenly, a creak like sound makes Elle sharply turn towards the door. A figure stands there. Fearful, the covers her breast.

              "Show yourself!" Elle growls angrily.

                "It's just me, Kid." The sound of Brody's voice sends goosebumps up and down Elle's arms, her cheeks blushing bright pink.
 
           Suddenly, Elle frowns at the thought of it all being a dream. Mainly because she isn't in the mood for hot, steamy dream sex with Brody.

                "I'm showering!" Elle hisses at him, but he only stands there. "Ugh, have you ever heard of privacy?"

               Brody takes his shirt off, revealing his tattooed chest and biceps. Elle's brow arches at the sight of his pasty skin glowing in the darkness. He then strips from his jeans and briefs. The blonde turns back around to face the stone wall when she sees Brody's slightly raised manhood.

              Wow. Damn. Is that normal? Elle wonders, I thought they usually just hang?

                 Brody grabs a bar of soap and a clean wash cloth. He  walks over to the shower head beside Elle's, turning on the luke warm water. The blonde forces herself to focus on her own bathing to avoid peeking at the water falling on Brody's muscular body.

                Elle clears her throat nervously. "Ahem, do you have to shower right now? Is it that necessary?"

                  Brody doesn't look at her, but slightly smirks at her words. "Lets get one thing straight, alright? In the Snake Kings, you have to share. It's just part of life."

              Elle smiles mischievously. "So you're saying that you not only share food, drugs, girls, BUT you also have a frequent non-gay showers together?"

                 Brody rolls his eyes at her. "Why do you think I'm showering now?"

                   Being bold, Elle takes a risk. "Cause you knew I was in here."

                     "Yeah." He speaks softly, looking down as he cleans his penis.

                     Elle's cheeks go pink at the thought of Brody waiting until she took a shower to join her. She bites her lip at the thought.

                  Am I dreaming? Elle wonders, Usually the conversations are a lot more stupid in my dreams.

                  The blonde decides that if it is a dream, she can press Brody however she wants to with anything she wants to. So Elle takes another risk.

                "You shouldn't have stopped me." Elle blurts out, annoyed. "I would have had our money."

                    "It wasn't an interrogation, Elle." Brody finally looks to Elle, his penis hardening at the glorious sight before him. "It..It was an execution. He was a goner the moment the boys caught him."

                     Elle finally looks to him with her brows narrowed. "But I could have saved him."

                    "No, you couldn't." Brody turns back to the stone wall, "Why didn't you just do as I told you?"

                      "Because you're not my Boss." Elle crosses her arms, "Or my boyfriend."
     
                       Brody sharply turns his head to her, his eyes dark and mysterious. His blue eyes that glow in the darkened room flickers up and down Elle's naked body before going back to his own shower.

                       Giddiness fills Elle at the bought of Brody wanting her. "What was that for?"

                      The blonde knows that they've kissed before but she didn't think it was too serious. She thought it was just him wanting a woman's company like most men want. But a sense of hope now fills Elle's chest. She turns off the shower, the cool air stoning her bare skin.

                  "I have no idea what you're talking about." Brody shrugs, being coy.

                    "Brody..." Elle's voice is lustful, sexy. Brody turns to her with wide eyes. "do you want to use my shampoo?"

                   The blue eyes man rolls his eyes at her in annoyance, snatching the shampoo bottle from her hands. "Little fucking tease."

                   Elle grabs a towel and wraps it around her naked body. Before she walks out the door, she turns back and looks at Brody.

           "I wouldn't have to tease you like I do if you'd just take care of me like a fucking man." To Elle's surprise, she didn't stutter. Her words are silk.

            As Brody begins to turn and look at her, Elle makes a dramatic exit out of the shower room. She knows she either pissed Brody off or made him think. She doesn't stick around to see in case her risk was too risky.

 

Hey readers! Who thought I was ACTUALLY gonna let them have sex? Haha! Tell me your thoughts about the chapter. How does my readers think the situation between Elle and Brody will go now? I wanted to write this chapter today because I loved the idea of Elle slightly confessing her desire for Brody but doing it in a way that will also tease/annoy him. Also, the story could go in SO many different ways now that Elle has kind of confessed she wants Brody...or, at least, she wants to have sex with him.
