DAY 3- DON'T DROP THE SOAP

Kai or so Suzume called him was still on bed rest, more like sofa rest cause there's no way in hell she'd give up her memory foam mattress to anyone. Poor Kai had been lying down for about 2 days, he was starting to become a little restless and needless to say she hadn't taken her eyes off him. She didn't want him to suddenly have the urge to kill her or eat all the food in the fridge whichever came first. It was a little past one in the afternoon and Kai and her had just finished lunch, you don't know what funny is till you see a predator eat a cup of ramen. So they sat and watched whatever ramble was on cable; usually it was Cartoon Network or TLC.

"Oh hush I like this show, besides we can't watch wrestling all day… you do know it's fake right?"

He gave her a shocked look veered his attention away slowly before scratching his head. He stared back at her as she tucked her feet under herself and placed a glass of orange juice down. Kai watched as she licked the sweet smelling liquid from her lips and gulp down the flavor. He didn't know whether this ooman was irritating or intriguing, he shrugged off the feeling as she laughed at the program on TV.

"Oh well seeing as I've been a good girl feed you, entertained you, and kept you company I'm gonna retire and have some alone time. You stay here and watch TV or stare at things, you seem to be pretty good at that."

Getting up and stretching her back she turned and walked towards her room, getting a low growl from Kai she threw a hand in the air to silence him. "I'm just gonna take a shower I'll be back you big baby." Saying that she disappeared into her room.

Suzume had a pretty nice apartment it had a kitchen, living room, an office, and a really nice bedroom with bath. Her bathroom was her sanctuary, her shower was her heaven, it had two side angled heads and a cored top showerhead. She would be there for at least an hour if not more.

She sighed as she grabbed a towel from the closet and turned on the water; hot but not too hot. She quickly removed, disposed of her clothing in the hamper, and stepped in.

"Sooo much better... icky green alien blood, yuck." she grimaced as she scrubbed her body with a body sponge.

All the while Kai had been sitting wondering what the strange ooman was up to; then he heard the sound of running water. I might not seem like it but their species enjoy and love water, it's quite scarce on their home planet so it's hard to come by. Some of the Yautja bring it back while in hunts on other planets and trade the clear substance while the richer clans have pools and baths on their lands. Soon afterwards Kai found himself limping across the living room and into Suzume's room following the sounds to the closed bathroom door.

He removed his netting and wrist guards dropping them to the ground along with his armor that made a metallic klink as they hit the floor. Suzume was suddenly ripped from her little world to the sudden swing of the shower curtains and the glaring face of an alien. It took her five seconds to process the sight, take a deep breath and scream bloody murder.

"What hell do you think you're doing?! GET OUT!!!"

He pushed her aside and forced himself under the running water; making low purrs of delight. Suzume scrambling at the corner of the shower punched him in the back and tried to force him out.

"You pervert get out! Can I have some privacy?! GET OU…" That sentence was cut short as Kai growled, spun on his heels and pinned her against the wall. If there was something that she found unnerving it was the way he looked at her, never the less she glared right back into his gaze.

"What are you looking at?" She growled all the while keeping a death glare at him. I'm pretty sure that no normal female likes to be pinned to a wall while in the in the nude and stared at. Kai curiously touched the foamy substance on her collarbone, wiping across her shoulders with his free hand.

"I'm really hoping you're not coming on to me. I have no interests in having you as a boyfriend, but then again we're not even the same species so how would that even work?" She raised an eyebrow to this thought and pondered a bit.

Curiosity got the better of her as she dared to look south, who wouldn't look? I mean he's the perfect height, built better than any guy she's ever seen, with a pair of light green eyes, and yes his face is kinda strange but it's not that bad, right? It would have been better if he had kept the mask on. The only thing that he needed to complete the part would be "down under" or so her Australian impression implied.

"Okay fine so now I'm the pervert! So what?!" She thought to herself as she shook off the blush from her face quickly glazing down and just as quickly staring back in his direction.

"That didn't help… at all." She shut her eyes and tried to erase the image that was burned into her retinas. His anatomy was similar but at the same time very different, his member was retracted into him and with two pounced veins low on each side. Strangely it wasn't unattractive but unique in its own "alien-ish" kinda way. It didn't help her that the hot water was still running making her blushed face more apparent.

Kai clicked and purred at the change of her body temperature, and why the oomans face had changed pigmentation to a having a slight pink across her face puzzled him.

"It's soap… guess you never seen soap." She responded to his questioning look, although that's probably not what Kai was asking at the moment. She slowly motioned to the bottle of Pomegranate Mango body soap on the shower floor.

Kai took a step back to watch her pick up what she was pointing at. The red liquid smelled sweet as ooman poured some into her open hand letting him look at it closely. He tried to taste some but Suzume drew back her arm to keep him from doing so. Kai growled at her to allow him to do what he wished, as he took a hold of her wrist and drew her towards him.

"You big dummy you can't eat this! Let go!" The dark haired girl shouted as she wriggled free from his grasp. "Here let me show you." Reaching out to put some on him he recoiled like a sacred animal growling at her. "I'm not gonna hurt you, do you really think that I could even put a scratch on you? Really now, come on…" She smiled and talked softer to gain his confidence as she reached for him.

Kai was a little confused and irritated at first, his kind didn't like to be touched, they weren't emotional or sentimental in anyway. Yet something in her voice calmed him as he found himself taking a step closer towards her; be it curiosity or whatever it was.

"There was that so bad?" She whispered as she rubbed some of the red liquid on his arm. "It's called soap we use it to clean stuff. This one you use to clean your body with." She giggled as Kai clicked and purred softly at the motion, "I guess you like it huh?"

She continued to scrub at his skin, it felt a little rough and bumpy but it was still somewhat smooth. Kinda like snakeskin without the scales, she thought as she washed his chest. Standing on her toes she reached up to wash his "hair"; they looked more like dreadlocks. Kai noticed her lack of height and bent down as she continued to scrub him clean all the while making low purrs and clicks completely content.

"I guess even aliens like to have their hair washed. My plans of buying an pet came sooner than planned." She didn't know what was stranger the thought of having him as a pet or the fact she was getting used to him. She giggled at Kai who nudged the hand that had stopped scrubbing him as she thought of the situation.

Even Kai was bewildered, Yaujta were trained warriors, they hunted and mated, that was all to life. If he even mated that all, he never really considered the thought of finding a partner, let alone one that he got along with. That's why he was utterly confused as to why he found himself so relaxed around Suzume, a human nonetheless! He was supposed to hunt their kind not grow attached to them… Wait, since when did he ever become attached with his prey?! She might have not have been a worthy opponent but he couldn't allow some strange emotions to change his ways. No, as soon as his wounds healed he had to signal his home and return to his life.

"Kai here catch." Oddly enough Kai didn't react fast enough and the towel landed on his head, which resulted in a burst of laughter from the raven haired girl. "I thought you were supposed to be this big strong killing machine and yet you get decked by an all cotton towel." She ruffled it about his hair getting something that sounded like a laugh from him.

"You know it might not be so bad having some company, it gets kinda lonely around here sometimes. Haka works 24/7 and I don't get to see her much." Pulling the towel away from his face she looked into his eyes. "That's a little odd considering I know nothing about you, nor what you are for that matter."

Kai snorted and blinked at her odd words, he hadn't understood much of the human language but he could sense that she had suddenly become unhappy. His bright green eyes studying the expressions and skimming down over her strange human form; not that far off from female yautja. She lacked the tough skin of his kind and she was much smaller in size.

"Your face might not be the prettiest sight Kai, okay more than that, you're just plain hard to look at." She giggled at herself. "But you do have nice eyes..."

A human female and a male alien standing naked in a bathroom, eyes studying each other quietly; kinda something from a scfi romance movie huh?
