A Warm Bath (Oumeno)

Before taking a bath, Himiko discovers insecurities she didn't know she had before about herself. That being her body. She doesn't know why she feels this way all of the sudden, but it's something she just can't seem to ignore.

Sometimes it's better to talk and vent out your insecurities to people you trust. For Himiko, that person is Kokichi Oma.

"Babe, the bath is ready," Kokichi leaned his head out, into the bedroom doorway. Himiko laid on the bed as she was reading through old magazines and articles. There were a variety of magazines spread out across the bed. Himiko found a few old articles of the former magician she called Master and her, his younger protege. There were also magazines for how to make bath soap, candles, clothing for women's fashion, and even model magazines.

"Okay, just give me a sec. I have to get my towel and-"

"Don't worry, I already bought them with me. Just get your pajamas out, lay them on the bed, and come join me." as he said that he went back towards the bathroom.

Himiko stayed on the bed a little longer, her legs pressed up against her stomach as she rested her chin on her knees. She looked down at the magazine, her expression looked saddened all of the sudden.

"True Beauty" was seen in bold red letters, the models in the magazine were slim, tall, curvy, beautiful. Himiko felt weird about how her body looked compared to theirs. Even though she was in her twenties, she still didn't look that mature. Some people still assumed she was a minor whenever they took a look at her, which made her feel less confident about her body. She gripped the magazine in her hand as she thought about it, "What does he think?" She asked herself.

His opinion mattered, if he thought her body was pleasing then maybe it is. But, what if he thinks it's not? What if he doesn't like her body? Himiko started to panic inside her head, the thought of Kokichi not liking her or her body. The idea that he didn't like her body haunted her and she hated it, these small insecurities, she didn't even know she had, had quickly crept it's way up into her mind.

"Himiko! You coming?" Kokichi yelled from the bathroom. Himiko quickly put the magazine away, took her clothes out, and ran out the door.

When she walked into the bathroom, Kokichi was already in the tub soaking in the warm water. "You finally showed up. I thought you fell asleep or something." He said with a cheeky smile on his face.

"Nyehehe.. I was just busy thinking about stuff," As she said that she began taking off her shirt. Kokichi watched her with a raised brow.

"What kinds of stuff?"

"Um.. stuff? I don't know how to explain it." She said nervously.

"Mmhm.. stuff.. Stuff," Kokichi repeated the word a few more times before shrugging it off. "Well, I hope you got your 'stuff' sorted out."

"Let's not worry about stuff right now Kichi. Right now, I just want to soak in a nice warm bath with you," She said as she finished taking off the rest of her garments and putting them in the clothes bin. She dipped her toes in the water, it wasn't too hot, it was a nice and warm temperature. Just how she liked it. She slid into the tub, letting the water engulf her body. The warmth surrounding her was comforting to her, it made her forget about her earlier worries.

Himiko sat on one side of the tub, while Kokichi stayed on the other side. She closed her eyes to relax, she thought about Kokichi and all the great times they've spent together, she thought about how much she loved him and how much he cared for her. She remembered every little moment they'd spent together during the nights when she was scared or when Kokichi was despondent about his past. They were there for each other, they truly cared for one another, there was no doubt there. Doubt. She doubted herself earlier. Her body. She had doubts about her body.
