Part 7

The last time we took a shower together it didn’t turn out the way we expected it too. I haven’t had a chance to truly caress my wife properly, but from past experience now isn’t the time. I pull her closer to me, guide her into the shower, and wash her from head to toe. As the water runs from the top of her head and the soap suds fall at her feet, I couldn’t help but to noticed both gunshot wounds that are still trying to heal. The water skips over the newest beauty marks that bless her body, reminding me that life should never be taken for granted. I stepped to be closer to her, allow our body to become one under the warm water that cleanse us. Kissing her collarbone, while telling her how much I love and miss her. Her soft gentle hands, rubbing my bald head, telling me that we were made for one another. That I am her chocolate knight in shinning armor as she runs her hands from my head, to my neck, shoulders, across my chest; then there was a knock at the bathroom door.

“I’m glad you two can take out the time to relax but we have work to do.” Steffanie yelled through the door.

“We know, but this is the only time we’ll have to clean ourselves and spend a little time with one another before holy hell starts, and I suggest you all do the same when we get out.” I replied angrily.

“Cool your jets, I was just making fun. Reonna and Elsey are in the pool, Cal already showered while I kept eye in the control room. Reonna was able to locate the code generator and reconfigured it to stay unarmed for 24 hours, but the sensors on the ground is still working so we’ll know when someone is coming our way. I actually came up here to call you two for dinner so no fooling around right now, come eat.” Steffanie said.

“Eric, sometimes I wish we were back at the prison. When I had you all to myself and didn’t have to worry if we would live to see another day. Don’t get me wrong, I wouldn’t give up this lifestyle for anything, I just need time alone with you for more than 24 hours.” Rhonda said as she exited the shower leaving me at full attention and by myself.

I washed and rinsed myself as fast as I could without missing any parts so I could talk to Rhonda, while we were getting dressed. I don’t want her to think this is going to be our lives forever, that it’s a temporary situation until we can take over the agency.

“Sweets, this is not going to be the end all for us. Once we take over, we can travel the World without having to look over our shoulders.”

“What you don’t understand is that I don’t mind that, what I do mind is that we don’t have a safe place to go to get away. Time for us to enjoy our marriage, enjoy one another, hell I enjoy riding you into the midnight hours but haven’t had a chance to in months. I’m not saying that it has to be everyday but three times a week is fine by me. I need to feel that connection again.”

“Rhonda I understand and I’ll do better. This past month was a close call, I don’t want to hurt you, but I do want you and I want you all the time; but the looking over our shoulders is causing me to be concerned.”

“So you’re telling me you have an issue getting it up?”
