“I said I thinkI can actually do this myself,” he said.

“How?”

“Well, theshower in the guest room is just a shower not a tub, so I can walkinto it and I can put a stool in there to sit on,” Connor said. “Ididn’t check the shower nozzle though, is it a hand-held one?”

“Yes,” shereplied.

“Great, I won’tneed your help at all,” he said.

Could he seethe disappointment on her face? She schooled her features intosomething that said, ‘brilliant idea’ rather than ‘what do you meanI don’t get to see you naked?’ and forced a smile. “All right. I’llgrab some towels and the stool and take them and your toiletries tothe shower.”

“Thank you,Kira. I really appreciate this.”

Connor’s lookof gratitude made guilt roll through her. God, she was so selfish.With a small smile, she hurried out of the room.

“Shit!”

“Connor?” Sheknocked lightly on the bathroom door. “Everything okay?”

Was it weirdthat she’d been hovering outside of the bathroom since Connor hadclimbed into the shower?

Maybe, a littleweird.

“Yeah. I just,uh, dropped the soap behind me and can’t reach it,” he said.

“Do you want meto grab it for you?” She raised her voice to be heard over thesound of the shower, hoping like hell he couldn’t hear theexcitement in it. Seeing Connor naked was an almost frantic needinside of her.

He paused. “I’mnaked.”

“Most peopleare when they’re in the shower. If you don’t want me to come in, Iget it. But I’m not going to, like, ogle you or anything. I’ll justget the soap for you and leave,” she said.

Liar.

She flushed.She wasn’t lying. She might want to see Connor naked, but shewasn’t going to do anything that would make him uncomfortableeither.

“Uh, hold on aminute,” he called.

She waitednearly two minutes before he said, “Okay, come in.”

She opened thedoor and stepped into the steamy bathroom. She shut the door tokeep cool air from coming in. The shower door was fogged up and shecould only see a hint of Connor through it, but excitement and lustwere already crowding into her belly.

“I’m going toopen the shower door, okay?” she said.

“Okay.”

Do not look athis penis, Kira. Do not look at his penis.

She slid openthe door and looked at his penis.

For the secondtime that day, thick disappointment washed over her. Connor hadplaced a hand towel over his crotch, and she could see… nothing.Absolutely nothing.

Her chance tosee her first penis in real life had been thwarted by a damntowel.

Connor clearedhis throat and, blushing furiously, she said, “Let me get the soapfor you.”

“Thanks. Sorry,I was trying to wash my back and the soap slipped out of myhand.”
