⋮ ۩ ) • • • Shaking his head, he listened as Samuel spoke, watching as he left, closing the door behind him. He was disappointed indeed by the idea of bathing by himself. Micha knew he would probably seem needy by wanting Samuel to stay with him. He too knew the idea of relocating would seem annoying after all he just got comfortable.

Shifting in the tub, he grabbed the wash cloth along with the soap. Micha opened the bottle, pouring some on the washcloth. He set the bottle aside as he rubbed the wash cloth together to create suds. Micha started with his arms as he worked his way down toward his legs and finally to his a**. He cleaned himself thoroughly.

Once finished, he pulled the plug on the drain. Micha moved to stand, letting the water drip. He shifted carefully out of the tub as it was still draining. Micha walked toward the counter as he grabbed the robe. He slipped it on as he tied the belt around his waist. Micha headed toward the door as he opened it.

Starting back down the hallway, he headed toward the foyer. Micha climbed the stairs in search of Samuel figuring he'd gone to his own bedroom. He reached the landing as he started down the hallway toward Samuel's room. Micha could hear the water running from the bathroom. He didn't want to seem obnoxious so he moved to sit on the bed and wait for Samuel to finish.

The idea of staying downstairs with Micha had occurred to him, however, he wasn't sure if that would be too strange. There had never actually been a time when just one person was bathing and the other wasn't. He supposed when it came time that they got their purchased their own home together, that might be something they would have to consider. Seeing as Micha wanted a more normal sized house, that might include normal sized bathrooms. Normal sized bath tubs and showers usually weren't that great for two grown adults, let alone two grown men. Sure it was doable, but it was not nearly as comfortable as the oversized tub and shower in his own bathroom that he was so accustomed to.

Heading up to his bathroom, Samuel pulled out a few linens and started the water. It wasn't long before he entered with his wash cloth. He closed his eyes and tipped back his head, as heavy water droplets beat against his shoulders and raced down his back. He stood there a few minutes enjoying the warmth. He wasn't nearly as sore as Micha, though he did feel some ache in his hips. After another minute or so, he grabbed the bottle of soap from the nearby shelf, flicking back the top, to pour on to the cloth. After recapping he set it back in its' spot and began to wash along his arms and chest.

Samuel took his time getting clean. He imagined that Micha might be awhile soaking, so there didn't seem like a need to rush. As he continued to work his way down, he blushed as the memories of their previous activities came to mind. It had been an interesting first to say the least. To think he could now say he'd allowed one of his partners eat him out on the patio. He smiled to himself as he felt a sense of giddy and wondered what other kind of firsts he would experience while with Micha.

With these thoughts in mind Samuel finished cleaning his lower half and rinsing off. When he was down, he twisted the knobs and stepped out to a billow of steam. Stepping towards the counter, Samuel picked up his towel and dried himself before wrapping it around it waist. Heading into his bedroom, he was surprised to find Micha sitting on his bed. Smiling, he crossed the short distance between them. "Did you have a nice bath?" he asked.

⋮ ۩ ) • • • Micha knew that it would be weird for Samuel not to be bathing if he stayed with him. He wouldn't have cared though. Micha had wanted him to stay but wasn't going to ask. He didn't want to seem too clingy. However he couldn't enjoy the bath too much by himself. Micha was too anxious by himself and didn't last long. He had spent enough time in the water to clean himself off.

While the idea of downsizing the house, he wasn't too thrilled about the idea of downsizing the bathroom. Micha sat on the bed while he waited for Samuel to finish. It wasn't long before he heard the water turn off. He heard movement in the bathroom as Samuel got out of the shower. Micha soon watched as Samuel exited the bathroom to find him waiting. He remained where he was as Samuel came across the room to where he sat. Micha listened as Samuel questioned him.

He wasn't bothered by the question. It was reasonable since he had asked for it. Micha didn't want to seem selfish however. He nodded a little, ”Sure.” Micha responded simply, lying with half truths. He didn't want to seem rude or explain himself either after all he knew it would seem stupid.

Had he stayed, he had to wonder if it would have been all that strange. After all, it wasn't as though it would have been the first they saw one another naked. They had plenty of conversations when they were in the shower together. So what had to be so different about this bath. Perhaps he had misjudged Micha when he asked for a bath downstairs. He assumed in such a small tub he would have been more comfortable on his own, rather than having him hang around like a bored spouse. For all it was worth, he didn't mind Micha's clingy behavior. He knew he dealt with a lot of anxiety and past trauma that made being alone uncomfortable.

Samuel also wasn't looking forward to the idea of downsizing the bathroom. He was too used to having space to move around and not worry about bumping into anything. Not only that, due to his height, he liked having a shower he didn't have to duck under. He couldn't guarantee such luxury with a modest home. Though perhaps they could compromise on a price range, or at least agree to find something that included a master bath worthy of its' name. He refused to live in a house that claimed a half bath as the master bathroom.

Coming out of his own bathroom, Samuel was delighted to see Micha seated on his bed. Questioning him, he watched the male nod his head before speaking. He found his response curious and wondered if something might be bothering him. Then again, he might simply be tired from all the activity, and he was just reading too much into it. Smiling, he leaned down and pressed a kiss to the top of Micha's head. "Well, our breakfast is downstairs and waiting. Shall we get dressed before eating? Unless you're comfortable in just that, you won't hear any complaints from me." he teased lightly. Samuel was unsure if there was something wrong, but he hoped if there was that Micha might tell him.

⋮ ۩ ) • • • The idea of being alone never bothered him until he met Samuel. He couldn't help his need to be around him. Micha knew being codependent wasn't healthy. He was semi working on it though now that they were back together again it was hard. Micha didn't want to bother Samuel with his over-thinking and irrational thoughts.

He answered Samuel who came closer and kissed his head. Micha took comfort in the action. He listened as Samuel spoke about their breakfast being here and putting clothes on. Micha found it amusing as Samuel encouraged him to wear just his robe however. He thought of something more. Micha reached out, running his hand down to Samuel's towel. He fingered the edge, ”And what if I wear nothing?” Micha teased about simply just wearing nothing at all.

Getting back to a healthy relationship was hard after getting used to spending so much time together. Samuel was also working on being more independent. He wasn't sure how it started in the first place. Before meeting Micha, Samuel had no problem going days or weeks at a time without seeing his partners. With Micha, it was different, almost like a drug. In no way did he blame him, no. Samuel just needed to keep himself in check and not over-think everything. Like now.

As he came closer and listened to him speak, he wondered if something could be wrong. Micha said nothing more on the matter, so he opted to tease him instead. Standing there, Samuel felt the brush of fingers against his waist. He glanced down to see Micha move his hand against the towel and listened as he teased him back. "Mm, you could do that. It's not as though we're expecting company." he replied. Thinking on it, Samuel wasn't against the idea of allowing him free in his home.

⋮ ۩ ) • • • Being independent came easy however but being with another person was harder. He knew they needed to keep to strict scheduling and do things separately. Micha was needy however but kept it to himself. The idea of returning to his hotel was a dread but inevitably. He couldn't help but remember feeling scared when he went to the club upon his arrival to see Samuel. Micha couldn't help but remember what it would have been like if Samuel had turned him away. He probably wouldn't have stayed in New York much less the United states anymore.

Having been teased, he relaxed. Micha couldn't help but tease Samuel in return. He found it amusing the idea of the company as if they experienced it all the time. Micha had only met Samuel's brothers recently and it wasn't for long. He was hardly bothered by the idea of walking around naked. ”Indeed, we're not.” Micha responded as he moved a hand down to the robe. He undid the tie letting it fall open.

 

[Pure Acid Dreamer]

The memory of Micha being in his office was still fresh in his mind. It hadn't been that long since his return, so he was able to recall every detail of the event. How Micha looked, the way he felt. For the most fleeting moment Samuel considered turning him away. Out of spite and his own misery, of course. However, when Micha had turned and started to leave, he instantly regretted such thoughts. He knew he couldn't let him go so easily. Not when there was had so much left unsaid and so many feelings he hadn't been able to let go. Samuel didn't want to think how miserable he might be right now had things gone any differently that day.

Standing before Micha they continued to tease one another. It was true that they didn't get a lot of visitors, if any. With his brothers come and gone, he couldn't think of any reason they might be coming back over. Especially with them knowing that Micha had been staying with him. If he was lucky, they would continue to give them some space and not say anything to their parents. The last thing he needed was his mother showing up to be nosey while they were running through the mansion half-naked or full. As Micha spoke, he smirked as he agreed with his words. Samuel watched as he moved his hand down to tug at the bit of cloth, and watched it slip from his shoulders. "Much better." he said approvingly. Leaning down, he pressed a soft kiss to his lips.

⋮ ۩ ) • • • Being visited by Samuel's brothers hadn't bothered him though the idea of meeting his parents did. Micha worried they wouldn't like him. He knew eventually he'd have to meet them. Micha wasn't rushing to meet them however. He wondered if Samuel's brothers had told their parents about him.

Undoing the robe, he pushed it back allowing it to fall from his shoulders. Micha watched as Samuel stared hardly bothered as he had done it on purpose. He pulled his arms from the sleeves as he let the robe fall back to the bed around him. Micha sat there completely naked before Samuel. He listened as Samuel spoke approvingly of his naked form. Micha smiled as Samuel leaned down to kiss him. He closed his eyes returning the kiss.

 

[Pure Acid Dreamer]

Introducing Micha to his brothers had gone surprisingly well. He was glad that they seemed approving of the relationship. Or at least had the good sense to keep any negative comments to themselves. He liked to think in the future they wouldn't have to worry about any trouble from his brothers. Though that might just be wishful thinking. His parents on the other hand, that worried him. His coming out hadn't exactly been a good experience, then again, somehow Samuel had survived the whole ordeal and wasn't disinherited for it. Of course, just knowing he was gay might have been the easy part for them. Bringing someone to brunch and actively engaging with Micha in the same manner he would any other date was entirely different. Samuel was also in no rush to finding out their reactions.

Standing over Micha, he watched him disrobe, pulling his arms free of the plush cloth as he seemed to bask in his nudity. Smiling, Samuel gave his approval before leaning down for a kiss. He felt him smile back as he returned the kiss to him. Slipping closer, Samuel ran his hand up the males' thigh. He couldn't resist reaching out and touching him. He found his skin to still be warm and soft from the bath. He could smell the lightly scented soap that had been picked and left in all the guest baths. Smoothing his hand up towards his hip, Samuel kissed Micha once more.

 

[xDarkWinterx]

⋮ ۩ ) • • • Indeed Micha did bask in his own nudity, after he knew Samuel was enjoying the view. He kissed Samuel as he came closer. Micha took amusement out of it soon feeling Samuel's hand against his thigh. He moved closer seeing that he could do his own touching if Samuel was. Micha reached out as he couldn't help but tease Samuel. He slipped a hand toward the bottom of the towel. Micha reached a hand beneath it as he caressed Samuel's inner thigh. He felt Samuel's hand running toward his hip. Micha continued to kiss Samuel as he ran a hand against his inner thigh.

 

[Pure Acid Dreamer]

It amused him how shameless the male could be at times. Then again, that was probably one of the reasons he was attracted to him in the first place. Always doing as he pleased, whenever he pleased. Shifting closer, Samuel continued to kiss him, caressing him gently as he slid his hand up further. It wasn't long before he felt Micha move on the bed, scooting even closer towards him. Samuel took amusement as he soon felt Micha's free hand teasing the lower part of his towel, his fingers gently grazing before moving towards his inner thigh. After taking another kiss, Samuel pulled back gently. "Looking for something?" he asked playfully.

 

[xDarkWinterx]

⋮ ۩ ) • • • It was easy not to care, he found freedom in living as he pleased. Micha hardly thought Samuel hated it either. He knew he probably enjoyed it. Micha had given into his desires especially earlier outside. He knew Samuel had been hesitant about doing sexual acts outside. Micha though had enjoyed it and so had Samuel. As they kissed, he did some exploring on his own. He ran a hand between Samuel's legs as he caressed his thigh. Micha soon felt Samuel pull back from his kiss. He looked up at Samuel as he questioned him. Micha smirked, ”Nope, just doing some touching of my own.” He teased as he continued not withdrawing his hand yet.

 

[Pure Acid Dreamer]

Indeed, Samuel much preferred that Micha be himself rather than someone he thought he wanted to be with. If he wanted someone he thought his parents might like, or would follow his every command, there were plenty of people like that out there. Especially in a city like New York. However, that wasn't necessary as he was perfectly content. As they shared another kiss, Samuel soon felt the males' hand on his thigh. He didn't mind the touch, welcomed it even. Though he couldn't help his curiosity. He would have thought that Micha had done all that he wanted while they were outside just as he had. Pulling back, he teased the male lightly while his hand continued up his inner thigh. Looking down at Micha, Samuel watched him smirk as he teased him back. "Mhm, in that case should I move the towel out of your way?" he asked.

 

[xDarkWinterx]

⋮ ۩ ) • • • Micha was never going to hide himself or pretend either. He was past such conventional means. Micha knew Samuel wouldn't ask him of such things either. He also would never degrade himself to be someone he wasn't. Micha found the idea of Samuel trying to control him amusing. As he touched Samuel, he hadn't meant for it to be sexual. He was merely allowing himself to touch Samuel as he pleased. However as Samuel soon questioned him, his mind couldn't resist. Micha smirked up at Samuel as he watched him. ”That depends, how shall I continue? He teased with a few thoughts in mind as he pushed his hand up higher toward Samuel's crotch.
