She passed one to Arabella, who stood just outside the shower, looking at
 
 the fluffy pink bathmat that matched the towels. When she didn’t take it,
 
 June wrapped it around her shoulders. She seemed to startle out of her
 
 trance. She clasped the towel, winding it around her sensual curves, while
 
 June wrapped one around herself.
 
 “Was that too much? Was I too much?”
