dhoney said I could steal this. So I did. :)
Ami grinned as she set up the candles and music in the bathroom. Charis was with her mother, Emily was visiting Nate, Makoto, and the kids--which she was pretty sure delighted Alora the most. She was not particularly excited to have a little brother.
She shook her head as she cleared the thoughts of the children from her mind. Sure, she loved them, but tonight was about her and Zoe.
Once her wife arrived home, she would take off her watch, but for now, she glanced at it. Fifteen minutes. Too soon to start the water. Her gift might allow her to control water particles, but slowing them down was far easier than speeding them up, and the last thing she wanted to do was to exhaust herself to keep bath water warm.
When she had given into Zoe’s pressure to get a house, she had insisted that, if it did not already have one, the master bath would have a whirlpool large enough for both to enjoy. Zoe had only laughed and made it happen before they moved in.
She planned to take advantage of it tonight, though she had put the covers over the jets--at least for the time being.
Content with the preparations in the bathroom, she moved down to the kitchen, collecting the aspects of the evening’s plans which Makoto had prepared for her and the item she’d gotten from Michiru--though she knew that both Usagi and Minako would be offended if they knew she’d gone to Michiru rather than them for this.
Adding the final touches, Ami smiled. Another glance at her watch assured her that there were only five minutes to go. Moving to the faucet, she turned the knobs, getting the temperature exactly where she wanted it before turning to light the candles.
She had just lit thee last candle when she heard the door open and shut. Biting her lip to keep from giggling, she slipped out of the bathroom and headed downstairs.
Zoe smiled up at her, “I thought, for a moment, I’d entered the twilight zone. A bit too quiet in here.”
“Mmm… Mom has Charis, and Emily is distracting Alora from the unfairness of Ethan’s existence.” Ami came the rest of the way down the steps, though Zoe grabbed her as soon as she reached the bottom.
“Really, now?” The blonde woman’s eyes twinkled, “And why would that be?” She kissed Ami soundly before she could answer.
Shaking her head, Ami slipped out of Zoe’s arms after the kiss, though she grabbed her fingers, “You’re getting ahead, love.” She grinned as she lead her upstairs, through their bedroom, and into the spacious bathroom.
“Ami…” Zoe looked at the very careful preparations of her wife, eyes wide, “My water nymph is feeling a bit in her element today, hmm?”
Ami giggled, “A bit…” She leaned in and softly kissed her while undoing the skirt that Zoe was wearing.
Not being one to need a map drawn for her, Zoe began undressing her wife, nibbling a bit on her as she exposed bare skin.
When she stopped for a moment, Ami’s unclasped bra held loosely in her fingers, Ami looked at her, her own fingers working the buttons of Zoe’s shirt. “Something wrong?”
“No… but… why are the jets blocked?”
“Oh? That. You’ll see.” Ami grinned and resumed undressing her wife.
Once they were both naked, the tub had filled, and Ami went to turn it off, getting a wolf whistle from Zoe as she bent over to do so.
“After you.” Ami gestured, only to be greeted by a confused look on Zoe’s face. “Trust me, silly.” She kissed her cheek and watched while Zoe got into the comfortably hot water. Her wife’s form was beautiful, and she could not help but admire her as she lowered herself into the water or appreciate the sigh of relaxation that the Shitennou let escape.
Moving behind her, she sat on the generous ledge of the tub, getting Zoe to rest her head on her knees.
Zoe leaned back and looked up at her, “You’re not getting in?”
“Oh, I will. In a bit.” She winked down to her and grabbed the hand held shower head, turning the water on, “Let me know if this is too warm.”
The other woman blinked at first, but when Ami began wetting her hair, she sighed and closed her eyes, “Ami…”
The Senshi of Water giggled, “You’ve not even seen the best part yet.”
“My wife is washing my hair in a bathroom lit only by candles and I saw the tray of aphrodisiacs. I don’t think it can get…” Ami giggled as Zoe caught a whiff of the shampoo she’d just poured into her hand, “Is that Michiru’s?!”
“Mmm-hmm.”
“You, my dear, are a goddess.”
Ami smiled as she worked the shampoo into her lover’s hair, massaging the scalp as she did so. “I know.”
