Stepping foot on the familiar, polished floor surface of my house, I felt as if it had been literally ages since I had last entered this safe haven of mine. But to think that about five days ago, I had left this house thinking that it would just be a simple camping trip... I could only shake my head in disbelief that something that severe had happened to us. However, lucky for us, no one is harmed and everyone is safe.
I stood at the entrance of the house with Alvelyn helping me stand and Loriana closing the door behind us and locking it. I surveyed the familiar scenery of the living room and kitchen, taking in that same hallway leading to the bedrooms...everything just seemed to be the way we had left it the day we had left. I felt a sense of great nostalgia as my mind enjoyed this familiar scenery.
"You should go bathe," Loriana said to me as she walked past the two of us and placing her purse on the living room couch. "Can you do that on your own?"
"I can try," I said, nodding my head and grimacing somewhat as I endured that sharp pain on the side of my chest.
With that being said, I decided that I should at least try moving around on my own. With a movement of my body, I notified Alvelyn of my intent, and she responded by slowly lowering her arms. With the support on my body now gone, I took a small step forward, doing so slowly so as to avoid aggravating any wounds. After taking a first step without feeling any major discomfort, I took another step. That was when I made sure that I need not be overly careful as my body seemed to have recovered quiet nicely thanks to modern medicine. However, I still moved slowly just to be safe.
On my own, I made my way over to the small hallway and to my bedroom. I opened the door, walked to the center of it, and surveyed the familiar layout. In my mind, there was a feeling of great content. After experiencing what happened in that asylum, ordinary things such as my house and bedroom just seemed to have such a calming effect on me.
I looked over at my computer desk where my PC and monitor was located. Next to it, there was the gaming console that I occasionally used to play exclusive video games on. Next to the desk was a shelf that I populated the upper levels with video game disks with and the lower levels with whatever books I needed. Opposite to that set up was my wardrobe, which is where I am headed.
I walked over to my closet and reached out with my left hand at the handle. After opening up the closet, I looked around for my comfortable in-door clothing set that I usually wear when at home and was able to find it neatly folded at the bottom, just where I had left it. After grabbing the necessary clothes, I turned around with my intended destination being the bathroom. However, my journey was postponed as Alvelyn stood at the doorway.
"Your phone," she said with her facial expression greatly resembling that I usually have on my own face.
"Thanks," I nodded and accepted the device from her hands after walking over to her.
"As for the clothes you were wearing," she explained. "We threw them away. They were all covered in blood so..."
"I know," I nodded.
I then stared at her for a few seconds before I took a step forward. As if reading my mind, at the same instant that i walked forward, she took a small step back and to the side, allowing me to pass by without any interruptions. My destination was the bathroom located at the very end of the hallway, so that is where I headed.
I opened the door to the washroom, closing it behind me. With a sigh, I looked over at the frosted glass door that led to the bathing area. Here is the more difficult part of this bathing process. I must take off my clothes. Putting on clothes wasn't that bad when at the hospital because I had the help of Alvelyn, but taking them off on my own, especially taking off my shirt, is especially difficult. However, it's not impossible to do. I just have to struggle a bit.
I brought my hand down to the hems of my T-shirt, grabbing it and began pulling upwards, hoping to just strip it off of my body that way. It is actually surprisingly difficult as the sleeves got stuck on my cast, and with one hand, it is difficult to get past that obstacle. It's difficult, but I do not think it's impossible. That's why I think that I will struggle for a bit.
"God damn it," I muttered as I continued to struggle in removing my shirt one handed, but I was making progress.
When I finally got that shirt off of my body, I let out a sigh of relief, but that was when the door to the washroom suddenly opened. Standing at the doorway was Alvelyn, who had a frown on her face.
"May I help you?" I asked as I stared at her.
"I'm the one here to help you," she said and walked over, closing the door behind her as she reached her hand to my chest to remove the brace. "I can feel that frustration building up and it's bothering me."
"Sorry," I apologized.
She didn't say anything in response to my apology. Instead, she simply continued to remove the brace from my torso.
"The doctors said you don't technically need this brace," she explained. "Just don't move your chest in awkward ways."
She then knelt down on her knees to remove my pants. Seeing her kneel down and unbutton and unzipping my pants made me blush somewhat. But...since she's myself, I guess there's really no point in feeling embarrassed. I mean I've seen her naked already myself.
After stripping me of all the clothing, I walked past the frosted glass door and into the bathing room with Alvelyn following behind me. The bathing room with its dark grey tiled walls as well as dark marble tile floors still seemed as familiar as ever. She walked over to the control panel on the wall, tapping its dark screen gently to awaken the computer. With the user interface activated, she pressed on the preset settings that was saved under my name, and the water started flowing from the shower head at the temperature and strength that I preferred.
"Are you going to take a bath after this?" she asked as she grabbed a towel and wrapped it around the cast so as to protect it from any water droplets that could accidentally land on it.
"I don't think so," I said as I stepped into the flow of water sourcing from the shower head while keeping my right arm extended outwards to protect it from the water. "It's too much of a hassle for me right now."
"Yeah," she said with a sigh. She then walked over to the built-in shelf on the wall next to the showering area and grabbed the bottle of shampoo. "Bend your knees a bit."
I complied with her command, bending my knees somewhat and lowered my head so that it was away from the water flowing from the shower head. She pressed down on the head of the shampoo nozzle, squeezing out some shampoo into her hands and began applying it to my head, massaging the shampoo gently into my hair and scalp. This wasn't the first time that I had shampoo put on for me by other people with a massage of the scalp as it was common practice at barbers, but for some reason, it felt extraordinarily good when done by Alvelyn. Maybe it's because she's me, so she knows how much pressure to apply and where it would feel good. There was a tingling feeling on my scalp that resulted from pleasure and comfort, a feeling so gold and enjoyable that I wish could last forever.
When she finally finished, she pushed my head gently back into the shower to wash off the bubbles and foam that had formed. When that was all done, I glanced over at her and saw that she was staring down at her chest with a somewhat troubled look on her face. Her shirt had became wet from the water that had splashed onto her, making it so that the white fabric clung onto her body tightly and became somewhat see through. Because of this, I could see the color and outline of her bra. Alvelyn seemed somewhat embarrassed as she blushed a little, but it must not have been a big deal to her as she did not immediately escape from the bathing room. Instead, she grabbed the body wash from the shelf.
After squeezing some of the body wash into her palms, she began applying it to my body. First, she gently ran both her hands down the length of my arms one at a time, carefully rubbing it into the skin. Then, she proceeded to my chest where she gently and carefully applied the solution. It was...a rather weird and yet pleasant feeling. When her cold hands ran across my chest, it felt...weird. I blushed somewhat as I watched her focused face, but she continued on without saying anything.
She then had me turn around, and when I did, she started applying the body wash to my back. With my upper body finally done, it was time for my lower body, which meant...the pelvic area and below.
"I can do it myself," I said to her as she stared at my lower body with a frown on her face.
She seemed to not hear me as she squeezed some more body wash into her hands from the bottle. With careful hands, she started with the side of my thighs first. It is rather awkward...to have my man parts hanging before the face of my female self. But, since it is Alvelyn, who is technically the female me, I guess this helped with the awkwardness a little.
But...it's still kinda weird and embarrassing to see the top of a girl's head as it moved around before that area. I know she is simply applying body wash to my legs and all, but it still felt kinda weird. Since she was on her knees, when I looked down, I could see her soaked back through her shirt. For some reason, this scene was oddly erotic, causing my body to have a natural reaction to this stimulus. And may I say, it occurred at an awful time. My erect penis accidentally pumped into her lips, taking her by surprise as she jumped a little and leaned back.
"I'm sorry," I apologized to myself, feeling extremely awkward and flustered at the moment.
Alvelyn simply shook her head as if telling me that I have nothing to worry about and simply continued cleaning. I looked down at the top of her head as she continued, wondering why and how she could remain calm after something like that had happened, and how she could continue to clean with an erect penis in her face. However, I guess I have my answer when I felt that same sense of awkwardness and flustered emotions in my mind double due to our spiritual connection.
