I poked the tip of my toe on the surface of the water, loosening the tie around my dressing gown. I’d had a long day and was hoping to decompress with a nice hot bath before bed. The water was hotter than usual but not hot enough to be completely uncomfortable or burn my skin. I remove my dressing gown before sinking in the water, letting out a long sigh of relief. The heavy suds submerge my body, lightly tickling my skin and I close my eyes, letting my mind wander. I wouldn’t be surprised at all if I fell asleep. I’d had a history of falling asleep in the bathtub.

I hadn’t long settled into that realm between sleep and awake when the bathroom door creaked open.

“Hey. I thought you’d be in here.”

My eyes shot open upon hearing his voice and smiled, spotting his head peaking through the a jared door.

“Ever heard of knocking?” I quip.

A smirk settles over his lips.

“We’ve passed the knocking stage, don’t cha think?”

His eyebrows raise in a hopeful manner as he opens the door wider and steps over the threshold. His boots make a squeaking noise against the floor’s tiles and he stands in front of the bathtub in a sheepish manner, folding his arms behind his back.

“What do you want, Harry?”

The corner of my lips curve up into a knowing smile.

“Can I join?” he asks, a dimple denting his left cheek.

I sit up, giggling about how shy he’s suddenly become.

“Hurry up, the water’s still warm.” I smile.

A wide grin spreads across his face and he wiggles his eyebrows suggestively as he pulls his shirt over his head.

“Don’t try anything,” I warn. “I’m not in the mood.”

He’d stripped down to his boxers in record time.

“I promise to behave,” he holds up three fingers. “scout’s honor.”

I grin as he sticks his foot in the water before settling in the tub. He made sure to place his legs on either side of mine, his feet nearly hanging off the tub’s edge.

He lets out a chuckle.

“We’re gonna have to get a bigger bathtub if we wanna make this a thing.”

I roll my eyes playfully.

“Maybe if you weren’t the human version of Gumby, it wouldn’t be an issue.”

He gasped.

“I can’t help it if I’ve got long limbs, love. ‘Jus the way God made me.”

I grin tucking my bottom lip between my teeth.

“I know, and I think He created a masterpiece.”

He grins, dimples denting his cheeks.

“Stop. You’re making me blush.”

He smacks the water’s surface with his palm, splashing water in my direction. I gasp as it makes contact with my face.

“You bugger!"

I flicked water in his direction as retaliation.

He grins wiping the water from his face with the back of his hand.

“You wanna go? Let’s go!”

I shriek as he relentlessly splashes, wetting my face and drenching my hair. I hold my hands up in front of my face in surrender, a deep bellied laugh escaping my throat.

“Alright, Alright! Truce!” I giggle.

I wipe the water from my eyes, my shoulder’s shaking with laughter. Once I regain my vision I smirk at Harry, his curls are wet, beads of water clinging to his hair. His smirk is as wide as a Cheshire cat.

“We’re all wet. Everything’s wet.” I deadpan, gesturing to the water stains on the shower curtains and puddles on the floor.

He chuckles.

“We should take baths together more often.”
