Elizabeth watched him bow and wave her to the bath. She smiled as his eyes came to rest back on her. Standing she let the warmth of the blanket fall from her body, the instant change in temperature puckering her nipples as she moved to the edge of the tub. It was nothing like the large lounging tubs she was used to at home, but once she stepped into the warm water, it didn’t matter. Sinking to her knees, she let the water sooth her aching muscles from the horse ride and began to wash her hair.
“I would love an old shirt, if you don’t mind. I am handy with the needle but, I think I can wait for fabric to make a popper skirt, but the shirt would be fabulous.”
She quickly washed her hair, a habit she had since she was a child, often preferring to do the work first, and soak after. She looked up at him as she twisted the excess water from her hair, and then looked away softly blushing. There was something so intimate about being in the same space, together, just watching, not touching.
She found a cloth in the bottom of the tub, and swiped it messily over her chest, finding his eyes on her, tracking the movement of the cloth against her skin, the flush in her cheeks deepened. She slowly dragged it across her collar bone, and down, swirling it about each full globe of her breasts, before making a long sensuous swipe of her arm. Down to her fingertips and then back to her chest, swapping hands and doing the same to the other.
She smiled as he licked his lips.
She dipped the cloth into the water, and tenderly smoothed it across her stomach, being very gentle with her wound, to her back and caressing it down the rounded curve of her ass, over her hip to between her legs. She suppressed a bit of a laugh as she heard him inhale sharply, before she slowly stood, water dripping down her body as she dragged the cloth from her ankle up her long leg, and then back down before doing the same to her other.
She caught his eye and smiled. He had definitely been effected by the show. Squeezing a bit of water from the cloth over her breasts to let it trickle down, she asked softly.
“Can I get you to hand me a towel?”
