"You coming?" Nora called from the bathroom. Languid steam poured out the bathroom door. The shower curtain swung open and I caught a glimpse of her ass and legs as she stepped inside. I shook my head to bring my thoughts back to Earth. Nora was right that moment waiting for me naked in my shower. I had just had her in my bed. This was all really happening. It all felt like a dream. I followed Nora into the shower, pinching myself to confirm I was really this lucky.
I pulled the curtain aside and joined her. Nora was in the middle of getting her hair wet. "Hey, you," she said. Somehow she seemed shy. We had just finished fucking, but standing in the shower together she felt a little bit awkward. I understood though. I felt the same way. It was suddenly nerve-wracking to figure out what to say to her.
"Hey," I said lamely.
The distance between us was unbearable. I moved up against her, pressing my body against hers. Nora settled into me. A little bit of tension diffused. I reached down to squeeze her ass. Nora pulled my head down to her and met my lips with hers. There was heat in that kiss. So much that it caught me off-guard. I pulled back and looked at her quizzically. Nora just flashed me a smile and turned around to face the water.
"You know," I started, "I was thinking..."
"Hmm?" Nora replied. She had picked up my bottle of 2-in-1 Shampoo and Conditioner and was pouring some into her hand. She started to rub it into her hair. The sight of Nora's wet red hair clinging to her back reminded me of flashes of that summer camping trip when we had hooked up all week. Parts of that week felt unreal, like a fever dream. Almost like how this night was starting to feel.
"Yeah, it's already late. I was thinking maybe you should just stay over."
There was a very slight, almost imperceptible pause in Nora's lather motion. She spun around to start rinsing it out. "Yeah, I think that's a good idea. I'm so tired it would probably be unsafe to drive home." She said this with a barely concealed grin.
I nodded, playing along. "Oh, definitely. It's way too late for that."
"Yeah, I wouldn't feel safe at all. And maybe, since you're such a gentleman, you would be willing to drive me somewhere for food. I'm practically wasting away."
