Gray gritted his teeth at his body’s reaction to Suzy’s intense gaze He didn’t even think she are that she was staring and had been for what seerasp the heown to pull it up over her head and jerked her out of her dreaaze and asked hiown, she put the towel in its place It was probably just as well, he wasn’t sure he could handle being in such a confined space with her nude He picked her up and placed her on the shower seat "Are you ready to get started?"
"Oh, yes, hit me, baby" Gray handed her a bar of soap and directed the water towards her chest OK, so et area Suzy’s breasts and nipples were clearly outlined through the towel He tried his best to avert his gaze as she soaped the parts of her body that she could reach He shifted her to the side and tilted her head so that he could wash her hair By this time, his heart rate had picked up considerably, and he was trying his best not to pant Suzy had her eyes closed and had ed the shaot a little tighter There was no way he was h her recovery without a serious case of blue-ball He quickly finished her hair and washed his own When she handed his since she couldn’t reach theht he’d pass out
In probably one of the most cowardly acts of his life, he put the bar of soap down and picked up the shas and squirted a stream onto both of them He then turned the spray of water towards the at hi up his hand, he said, "Don’t ask I’ht now" Gray reached around and turned the water off Suddenly, a thought almost sent him into panic I have to pick her up, and she’s wet and naked I’ to eht than he heard a knock at the bedroouys with anything?"
Gray had never been rateful to hear Beth’s voice He told Suzy to stay put and jumped out of the shower He stuck his head out of the bathrooive him a ht he’d lost his mind He practically ran to the door and pulled Beth inside "Perfect ti Suzy just had a shower, and we could really use your help Maybe you can her dry off and put a towel around her and I’ll lift her out"
Beth tried to stifle the smile that threatened to overtake her face This was the first ti other than poised Even when Suzy was in the hospital, he still had an air of authority, a can-do, take-charge attitude Now, he looked visibly disheveled Apparently, one day of taking care of her sister had brought the poor man to his knees Beth decided to take sympathy on him and briskly walked into the bathroom and retrieved a towel She carefully stepped into the wet shower and smiled at her sister Suzy had a ser up to her lips "Beth, I still have sos and breasts, could you turn the water on and wash it off, please? You et it all"
Suddenly, so and sla could clearly be heard Beth looked at her ide eyes, obviously wondering as going on "Uhter, knowing she was an evil person but still unable to resist the temptation to torture Gray She waved her hand to stop Beth fro to control her laughter "I’m fine Beth, just help me dry off"
Realization dawned in Beth’s eyes as she too started laughing "You’re a bad person, you know that, right? That poor hter, she continued, "Let it be known that I object"
"So, evil one, how are you feeling today? You look better; the spark is back in your eyes Oh god, you didn’t have sex last night did you?"
Suzy snorted, "Duh, thanks for your faith in ht hours after getting out of the hospital I sure wanted to, though That man sets my underwear on fire anytime he’s near"
"U I really need that visual when I look at him I’d like to at least be able to be in the same rooives me the creeps"
Surprised, Suzy looked at her sister "Nick, why? I like hih, no I’ at me like I’m some type of science experiment No doubt, he’s never spent er than a size three, and he’s probably terrified I’ll eat hi"
Not for the first time, Suzy wondered if her sister’s constant fat humor hid a serious proble over to dry her If possible, she looked even thinner, and despite her joking about women ere a size three, Suzy wondered if Beth was much more than that now When they were alone without Gray and Nick being in the other room, Suzy vowed to have a serious talk with Beth She didn’t want to see her sister end up with an eating disorder

"Bro, what’re you getting yourself into here" Gray looked over at his brother leaning against a kitchen counter and walked over to pour a cup of coffee "In little more than twenty-four hours you have set up house "
"What’s your point, Nick?"
"No point really, just hope you knohat you’re doing I kno you feel about her, but your life is a little coht now If you plan to continue, you need to come clean with her about Reva before she finds out on her own"
