(no subject)
I didn’t get my fort day, but thank you everyone for the sympathy and hugs. The weather is colder and the leaves are changing, which makes me happy. I love this season. And I had a bubble bath last night! Bubbles and bath salts, it was lovely. My petite tabby sits on the tub edge and watches me when I bathe. She’s very strange. Or sometimes she turns and faces away from me, like she’s ignoring me, or perhaps watching my toes peek out of the bubbles.
I started thinking about bubbles baths this morning, and who would have them, and Marcus, he’s a big guy, very athletic, and he’s had a ton of those ice baths to help him recover after grueling workouts, but he’s also discovered a secret love for bubbles. And the warmth is so good at relaxing his muscles!
He’s moved in with Esca. At first I was thinking they were already boyfriends, but no, I think they’re casual acquaintances who moved in together, maybe a bit of desperation in finding a good apartment in a crowded city. So Marcus isn’t really comfortable sharing his love for bubble baths, but Esca has gone out for the night, so he’s going to enjoy himself.
Only as he gets all settled in, Esca’s cat settles on the edge of the tub and is watching him. Who knew Esca’s cat was a stalker? Marcus is trying to ignore the cat and relax. His dog, a golden lab, whines from the doorway.
(Oh! There’s why they moved in together without really knowing each other, both had pets they weren’t willing to give up, and it’s hard to find a place that takes pets.)
Only Marcus is a dog person, because dogs can go running with him, and dogs can be trained. So he tells his dog to go lie down and the dog goes. (Dog should be named after a famous athlete. Esca would have mocked this. Esca’s cat is named after a philosopher.) Anyway! Dogs good, cats annoying in Marcus’ opinion, but he’s ignoring the beast. His phone is on the floor, with music playing, a cold brew is in a frosty mug next to it, he has bubbles, life is good.
He’s drifting in a zen state, and shit, realizes he’s heard noises that are a door opening and hasn’t been paying attention but the cat is now facing the open doorway because Esca’s home early. And Marcus starts to sit up, but it’s too late, Esca’s standing in the doorway, looking appreciatively at Marcus’ bare chest. The bubbles have started to dissipate and can no longer hide that Marcus has gone hard just from the heat in Esca’s eyes.
*cackles*
It could be a pwp and reference responsible pet ownership!
The cat would totally watch them have sex.
There should be more pets in fic in general. I think I’ve read more fics of people turned into animals than fics that had pets. I wrote a fic based in an author’s universe where there were creatures called dust bunnies, and that was so fun, picturing that dust bunny as all my different cats. Pets FTW. Stalker cats, even better.
Oops, I realize I have sorta written this fic already, John (McClane) enjoying a bubble bath while Matt is out, only Matt comes home early. Still! Nice to think about.
