You loved taking baths, you would always take one at the end of a stressful day. Just the feeling of being enveloped in warm water surrounded by bubbles and that sweet scent of soap coating the room was enough to relieve you for the night.
One night, you decided to take a bath as usual. The bubbles filled the tub, and that soft scent of honey and jasmine eventually coated the room while you got ready to get in the tub. As you stepped in, you were enveloped by the warmth of the water before you sunk in and completely relaxed. Your muscles began to slacken and your body relaxed in the water.
Your eyes began to droop, and you shifted in the tub to find a comfortable position to rest in. Before you knew it, you had dozed off. A few minutes had gone by and Simon had finally arrived home from work, his curiosity piping up when you didn’t run to meet him. He simply shrugged it off as you probably didn’t hear him come home.
He made his way up the stairs, to the bathroom. Hoping to simply use it and get changed into comfortable clothes. He reached the door, and turned the handle, getting hit with the scent of honey and jasmine before his gaze landed on you. Seeming to have fallen asleep in the tub.
A chuckle had escaped his lips before he closed the door and went over to you. Sitting beside the tub with a sigh, his hand reaching over to your shoulder to hopefully shake you awake. That didn’t work out, a few minutes had gone by and he simply accepted that you weren’t going to wake up. So he slowly drained the water, rinsed of you off, before wrapping your body in a towel and carrying you off to the bedroom.
He got you changed in a pair of pajamas as he set you on the bed and got in after you. Pulling you close before he began to trace circles on your back. His freehand reaching out to caress your cheek as he smiled fondly at your sleeping expression, and then he quietly muttered under his breath to prevent from waking you up.
“How on earth did you fall asleep in the tub, love?.”
