"It's getting late and you need to get cleaned up. Do you want me to help you get cleaned?" Thomas asked me. I smiled at his thoughtfulness. "You're right and no I think I'm good." I said sliding off the bed and starting to stand up. Right when my feet hit the floor I went down curling into a pile on the floor. My strength had been drained from all the crying. "Are you sure you dont need help? Canterbury is heating the bath water and grabbing you a towel and a rag for the bath. I could carry you and help you clean yourself up." Thomas offered kneeling at my side. I looked at him a few minutes before sighing. "I need help with every thing right now." I said blushing and burying my face under my arm.

I felt Thomas pick me up and could tell he was trying so hard to be gentle. I blushed when Thomas shifted me in his arms till he was carrying me bridal style. I felt myself starting to lose consciousness as sleep tried to claim me. It soon got to hard for me to hold up my head. As I fought to stay awake I laid my head down in the crook of Thomas's neck. I heard Thomas chuckle under his breath and fought to lower my growing blush needless to say I failed. When we got to the washroom Thomas sat me on the vanity counter and started undressing me. I blushed even more and that did not go unnoticed by Thomas. "Hannah calm down. There is no need to be shy, I'm not going to do anything bad and you know that." Thomas said obviously trying not to smile. My blush deepened when I was wearing only my corset. Thomas just looked up at my face and smiled before undoing the strings.

When I was fully unclothed he lifted me up off the vanity counter and carried me bridal style to the tub. When we got to the tub he set me in it gently. I sighed the water was nice and warm and helped to calmly nerves although it did not help me fight off the sleep. Thomas grabbed the soapy sponge that sat waiting on the table next to the tub. I never thought my blush could grow any deeper but apparently it did when Thomas started to scrub my body making sure to be careful when he washed my face. I relaxed though when he started to wash my hair, indulging in the calming effect his fingers gently going through it gave me. The calming moment was ruined when Sebastian ran in carrying a suitcase and smashed through the opposite door Claude and Alois following him. I felt very embarrassed when Claude came in, but that embarrassment quickly turned to hate and anger when he let Alois make a move to slap me. That move was quickly countered by Thomas who stood up and caught Alois's hand and pushed him at Claude. The look on Alois's face as he ran out of the room was priceless.
