Ariella
Present
Shock rushes through me as I feel my whole body engulf in warm water.
My butt touches a hard surface as water surrounds me. My skin burns where my butt is. But soon, after a few seconds it starts to feel good, relaxing.
My eyes open slowly and I look around. Ash is in front of me, sitting on the edge of the tub and looking down at me.
All of a sudden, I feel so exposed to him. He sees me, everywhere and everything.
Ash isn't wearing a shirt and my eyes go to the tattoo before meeting his eyes again.
“What are you doing?”
“Giving you a bath. You need one.”
“I don't smell though.”
“Yea but your ass is sore, and I can't have it be sore for next time or else it will just hurt, not give you pleasure,” Ash states and I swallow.
Straight forward.
Next time?
“What do you mean next time?”
Ash furrows his eyebrows. “You think I'm going to let you go after last night?” I push my back against the tub as if it will make me farther away from Ash. Ash sighs and he leans in, putting his hand on the edge of the tub near my head. “Answer me. Did you really think I was going to let you go?”
“I thought-“
“No. Obviously you thought wrong.” Ash tilts his head to the side and his eyes trail all over my face, lips, eyes, nose, every little detail on my face.
It makes me feel nervous, especially since I'm naked and bare in front of him.
The only barrier between us is his clothes.
“Are you mad?”
Ash sighs and instead of answering he stands up and he starts taking off his sweatpants.
I don't move my eyes away from him as he puts his hand around the waistband of his briefs and pulls them down.
Next thing I know, he is getting inside the tub and he moves me so that he can sit behind me.
His chest is warm when I rest against him. His fingers glide over my arms and his other hand wraps around me and touches the spot where my tattoo is.
I feel his hard cock against my butt making me press my thighs together, reminded of how it was inside me not too long ago.
“I'm not mad,” he says in a frustrated tone. He says he's not mad but he sounds and acts like it. “I just don't want you to fall into anyone else's arms, Ariella. Only mine.”
I lean my head against his shoulder. “Have you been with anyone else since you met me?”
I don't expect Ash to not be with anyone while we were not talking for the past two months. I would expect him to be with other girls and I know that would hurt me but I still want to know.
Maybe it was stupid to ask and I shouldn't have asked but I just like hurting myself and him telling me has been with other girls makes this whole situation between him and I more realistic.
