During breakfast, Ryoma slid as far as he could from Atobe. He ate quickly and made a getaway.

"Where are you going?" asked Atobe.

"Going to pack for school."

"Why?"

"You're alright already anyways." replied Ryoma, non-chalant as ever.

"We're not going to school today."

"Why..?"

"Bandages are still on. It'll be taken off tomorrow." said Atobe, turning to Sebastian.

"They're only ban—"

"Prepare an Evian bath for Echizen and ore-sama." Nodding, Sebastian left the room.

This caught Ryoma's attention.

(A/N: Evian bath is this like.. $5,000 per bath. Remember, Ryoma likes trying new bath mixes/salts. -wink wink- ;P)

"Evian bath…?" Ryoma asked, shocked.

"Yah. I have it every day." replied Atobe. Ugh, rich people.

"W-why do I have to take a bath with you?" demanded Ryoma.

"To conserve water," 'to conserve water' was not what's all inside Atobe's twisted mind. "Plus, don't you want to clean yourself up after what we—"

"Okay okay!" Ryoma cut him off.

Going back to Atobe's room, the two boys went into a room Ryoma has yet to see. His eyes widened. This is a bath?! More like a mini swimming pool! The bath room in general was large, and a steamy, lemon-like scent rose from the warm water. The pool was an oval shape. While he was looking around, he didn't notice that Atobe had already undressed and went into the bath. He sat at the opposite side of the wall from the standing Ryoma, watching.

"Strip." Atobe commanded, putting his full gaze on the flustering boy. Strip? Now? Infront of Atobe? He's watching! No way.

"I-I'll take a bath after you're done." Ryoma turned around to leave, face red.

"Now." Atobe whispered right into his left ear. Ryoma yelped in surprise. How did he get to him without his noticing? Atobe gripped firmly on Ryoma's tiny, fragile-looking shoulders, compared to Atobe's large, firm hands.

"Y-yaddah." Ryoma tried to keep his voice contained.

"Or would you want me to do it for you?" suggested Atobe.

"Yaddah." Ryoma tried to struggle out of the iron grip on his shoulders, only to have Atobe squeeze harder, nails starting to bite into his clothes and skin. Ryoma started to gasp slightly in pain.

"No, choose one of the other. Or do you intend on breaking your promise?" Atobe nibbled on the shell of Ryoma's ear.

Ryoma took a deep breath, breathing out slowly and unsteadily. "I'll do it myself."

Atobe smirked and returned to the far end of the bath, regarding the undressing kohai closely. Thankfully, all the hot steam emitted from the bath made everything hard to see.

Under the water, Atobe could feel himself getting a hard on. Oh gawsh. He blushed slightly, trying to push himself down. Has the great ore-sama really have fallen for the boy? Ryoma quickly slid into the welcoming water. When sat upright, the water level of the overly-large bath tub reached midway on Ryoma's chest. He sank down deep into the water so that only the top half of his head was visible above the water. He hugged his legs under the water and his eyes avoided Atobe, blush still hot red.

Chucking, Atobe raised a finger and made a 'come here' jester. Ryoma wanted to shake his head in refusal but their agreement wouldn't allow him to. He looked away, pretending that he didn't see.

Getting irritated, yet amused, Atobe set off a wave of water, splashing the unexpecting Ryoma in the face. He coughed out some of the liquid that went into his mouth.

"Monkey King what do you think you're doing?!" Ryoma exclaimed.

"We can't have you ignoring ore-sama now, can we?" smirked Atoe, splashing another huge wave of water towards Ryoma. Ryoma quickly sank into the water, avoiding the incoming wave.

"Haha. Come here." said Atobe once again.

Reluctantly, Ryoma scooted over towards Atobe next to the wall and stopped at a 2-meter distance.

"Closer."

1.5-meter distance.

Sighing for the umpteenth time this day, Atobe reached over and pulled Ryoma towards him by the wrist.

"No! Let go!!" Ryoma exclaimed, franctically trying to struggle out of his vice-like grip on his right wrist.

"Relax, I'm not going to do anything to you." reassured Atobe. Ryoma stopped struggling but he was still just as tense.

Atobe pressed a button behind him and the water level lowered until it reached Ryoma's mid-stomach. He reached over the tub's wall and took out a bottle from the shelf, which was filled with beautiful bottles of many colours, shapes and sizes. The bottle Atobe held looked like a half-oval-shaped soap bottle containing a purple-blue translucent substance. He squeezed some of the gel from the bottle onto his left palm.

"Turn around."

"Why?"

Atobe sighed. "Must you question every order I give you?"

"Yes." Replied Ryoma, arrogantly. Atobe rotated the boy around so that his back was facing him. "Eh?"

Atobe applied the gel onto Ryoma's back, which turned into fluffy, soft bubbles in a few rubs. Ryoma tensed up at the feel of Atobe's hands on his back, but he couldn't help but relax a bit as the gentle, yet stern hands started rubbing his back really comfortingly. It kinda felt nostalgic since the last time he had a bath with someone was his older brother, Ryoga, which was like…. 8 years ago or so.

"Relax, Ryoma." Ryoma shivered as he heard Atobe's velvety voice whisper his first name into his ear. Atobe's soap-covered hands slipped upwards onto Ryoma's raised, still-tensed shoulders and started massaging him. Subconsciously, Ryoma's shoulders loosed up right away, quietly moaning from Atobe's expert hands. Moving from the shoulders, his hands moved onto Ryoma's back again, but this time, his hands and arms went under Ryoma's and gave him a hug from behind.

"A-ah?"

"Ryoma…" Atobe let his hand roam around on Ryoma's soft, smooth chest while he nuzzled the right side of the gracefully curved neck while his hands pinched Ryoma's nipples.

"O-okay, stop. I can wash myself…" Ryoma flustered, trying feebly to get out of Atobe's hold.

Atobe laughed. "Okay, fine."

OOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

After the water level returned to normal, Atobe got out ALTERNA shampoo.

(A/N: Too much fun looking at the world's most expensive bath products! xD)

"Brat, you're doing it wrong."

"Eh?"

"Come here."

Ryoma once again scooted over with his back towards Atobe. Atobe poured more shampoo into his hands and applied it to Ryoma's silky hair.

"What are you doing?" questioned Ryoma.

"You don't use enough shampoo."

"You just use too much." Ryoma tried to push off the scrubbing hands.

"Just let me do it." Atobe said soothingly.

"You're acting awfully nice for a monkey." Ryoma mumbled, blushing.

"Heh, you're my special guest." Atobe started rubbing Ryoma's neck and shoulders.

"I thought this was shampoo." Ryoma obviously didn't want Atobe to do anything weird.

"It works for all." Atobe accidentally scratched a spot a few inches from the back of Ryoma's right ear. Ryoma suddenly tensed and gasped out. Smirking, Atobe scratched the same spot but slightly harder and continuously this time. Almost immediately, Ryoma lost all his strength and fell backwards onto Atobe. His eyes closed as his pants and groans became even quicker and heavier as Atobe continued attacking his 'new-found special spot'.

"Uhhn…Atobe…….a-ah..!" Ryoma subconsciously moaned out. Atobe stopped teasing the kohai and gave him a hug as Ryoma slowly recovered his breath.

Snapping out of his daze, Ryoma pushed away from Atobe. "W-w-w-what did you do?!" Ryoma flustered, backing away to the wall. Atobe only smirked. He moved back to the edge of the pool and took out this bottle-candle incense thing (A/N: Sorry for bad description... ^-^;;) and lit it.

"What are you doing…?" The aroma from the incense quickly engulfed the whole bath. Ryoma right away relaxed when he inhaled the sweet scent. His mind started getting foggy and….unclear….. as his ability to think straight got clouded up.

"You don't think that you can get away after turning me on like that, do you?" Atobe approached the unmoving figure, his eyes burning with lust.

Ryoma just leaned against the wall, his body refusing to move.
