Kapitel 43: Shower With Me
I am not ready for this!
He opened the door and was only clad in a towel which covered his lower part of the body.
His six packs bore testament to his workouts.
"I don't think it is a good idea, Zaccheus. I am definitely not ready for us to have a shower together," I said calmly, trying to ignore the butterflies in my stomach.
"I won't have sex with you if that's what you are worried about," Zaccheus smiled with a wink.
I felt goosebumps all over as I looked at his face and bare torso.
He took off his towel and hung it on the hook behind the door. I saw his taut firm bottom and quickly looked away, feeling a blush creeping up my neck and face again.
I froze, not knowing what to do.
"You are fully clothed, are you sure that is what you want to do? Taking a shower fully clothed?" He teased.
I did not turn to look at him and stood by the sink fiddling with the soap like it was the most fascinating thing in the shower.
"I want to brush my teeth first," I mumbled quickly, anything to stall the inevitable, to strip and take a shower together with my husband.
I took the longest time to brush my teeth until I could feel my gums getting sore and my lips feeling numb due to the cooling mint lingering too long on them.
Zaccheus already stepped into the shower and hummed a tune as the sound of the water cascading on his body and the floor served as his orchestra. I still focused on brushing my teeth as if it was rocket science, it must have been at least 15 minutes when the shower was turned off and I was still brushing my teeth.
"You can rinse your mouth now, darling wife. We shall take a shower together another time, make sure you get cleaned up properly, as thorough as you are cleaning up your teeth," he whispered into my right ear. I then realized that he stood behind me at the sink and his reflection was clearly showing him stark naked in all his glory.
My eyes opened up wider before I blinked hard. I started choking and he patted me on my back as I tried to rinse out the toothpaste from my mouth while coughing hard.
I finally stopped coughing and continued to rinse my mouth properly.
"Get used to seeing my body, dear wife. I am a nudist. Remember that all the Greek statues are nude anyway," his voice seductive and I felt the heat rising on my face again.
"I love seeing you blush. I love everything about you," he planted a soft, gentle kiss on my right cheek and walked away, grabbing his towel before leaving me alone, closing the door behind him.
I finally heaved a huge sigh of relief, letting out a breath that I did not even realize I was holding in. I looked at myself in the mirror and shuddered to think of how he was going to tease me when we were with the entourage.
"Jeff would be the first to suspect that something is fishy and that we are not really husband and wife in that sense!" I panicked and thought that I would at least allow Zaccheus to kiss me in public.
Deep in thought, I peeled off my clothes and stepped into the shower, feeling the soothing flow of water cleansing every pore on my skin.
"Tomorrow is another day, a big day but let me get through tonight first. I need some kissing lessons if we are going to convince them that we are really in love with each other," I thought to myself, stopping when I realized I wanted to appear legit in front of these people I hardly knew.
"Why does it matter so much anyway? It is not that I love him. I mean, I like him but love? I know there was a drastic change of feelings after the past life travel to the beginning and I could feel that Cassandra loved Zaccheus deeply, but those are just her memories. Are her memories affecting my heart? Am I not my own person? I am an individual separate from Cassandra, I am not Cassandra and I am Theeya. If I have Cassandra's memories and I remember her love for Zaccheus it won't automatically render me helpless to prevent myself from falling in love with him, right?" 1001 thoughts were running through my mind as I finally felt a chill. I had been in the shower for far too long.
I grabbed a towel and used it to pat dry my body and hair. I wore a bathrobe that was laid out earlier by the maids and hung back the towel.
Sighing out loud, I opened the door and my jaw dropped when I saw a naked bottom swinging to the beat of the music Zaccheus was jamming to.
