She had had a terrible day at work. Then, later on swim practice she forgot her swimsuit at home and had to drive home to pick it, consequently arriving late at the meeting. Her coach had yelled at her and obliged her to swim five extra pools, so, once she got home, she was frustrated, depressed and her body sore like hell. Despite of all the water she had just been surrounded with, she decided to take a hot bath and try to forget about her stupid day.
Once the bath was ready, she stepped in and let the water mold to her tanned body. Emily closed her eyes and let out a heavy breath. She was so into her own world that she missed the faint steps approaching the bathroom door and then the door opening. All of a sudden, she felt a pair of swift arms around her shoulders and she tensed.
''Had a rough day?'' Emily calmed down once she heard the voice of her girlfriend behind her.
''Yeah'' The brunette sighed letting her head fall into Alison's shoulders.
''Can I do anything to make you feel any better?'' The blonde asked planting soft kisses on Emily's neck.
The brunette didn't respond but the soft moan that escaped her lips was enough to encourage the blonde to go on. Alison stood up from her kneeling position and stripped until she was totally naked. Emily turned around and took her time to appreciate the blonde's beauty. She could never get tired of admiring the blonde. Her sight when from down to up until she was met with Alison's dark pupils. Emily smiled lovingly at the blonde and made room for her to enter the bath. Alison smiled at her and sat with Emily between her legs. She stroked the brunette's hair softly and Emily rested her head on Alison's chest.
''Just forget about your day, okay?'' The blonde said in Emily's ear while kissing it softly. ''Just focus on the present and let me take care of you''.
Emily hummed in response and couldn't suppress the smile that formed on her lips. She was so grateful to have the blonde and in times like this is when she appreciated it the most; when she was vulnerable and the blonde was there no matter what.
Alison grabbed a shampoo with coco scent and sprayed it on Emily's hair, only to start rubbing it slowly. Emily closed her eyes and sighed contently at the feeling. Alison took Emily's hair and put it in a bun and took this chance to plant a sweet kiss on her pulse point; there was no lust in that kiss, just love.
Once she was done with the coco shampoo, she splayed some water on her girlfriend's hair and removed it. Then she applied some hair conditioner and started to also massage Emily's scalp. When she finished, she noticed for the first time that the brunette was almost asleep and, although she felt kind of sorry for having to wake her up, she also admired the brunette's beauty which, according to Alison, was the most gorgeous thing she had ever seen. Carefully, she ran her fingers up and down the brunette's stomach and spoke closer to her ear.
''Em, baby, wake up. ''
''Hmmm?'' The brunette asked sleepily.
''Let me carry you to bed.'' Alison said lovingly into the brunette's ear.
Emily with her eyes mid-closed nodded and stood up with Alison subjecting her arm, trying to prevent the brunette from falling straight to the floor. Once they were both out of the bath, the blonde didn't even bother to dress the brunette nor herself. She just laid Emily on the bed and spooned her. Alison was starting to fall asleep too, but not before planting a soft kiss on the brunette's cheek.
''Sweet dreams, baby.''
