the sleepy look about his eyes faded slowly away as the heat of the water woke his body and breathing in the warm steam awoke his mind. He streched lightly ihis usual morning when he was in his den. till he heard her...You said you would help me bathe. The animals help me make sure I don't miss anything. You helped me get undressed since the animals help me do that too."<span style="font-style: italic">got her undressed?</span>he thought to himself as he looked around seeing her. His heart sank. They were both nude and in his hotspring, what had he done... She wanted help? Cleaning? he took a long shakey deep breath and blew it out clearing his throat. "Yes, I am still going to help you..." he walked over the water lapping at both of them gently as the waves danced along thier skins. " from a shelf like set of holes on the side of the cave he took a bar of hand made soap and a cloth. Wading to her he lifted her out of the water and placed her on the edge of the deeper water where her feet remained in the water. He carefully began washing her hands getting each finger andelicately under the rim of each name around her wrist and up her arm. Repeating the process for her other arm and her legs/feet. Slowly he moved to her face and got behind her ears gengerly around her eyes and traced her lips gently, keeping his mind void of thoughts as best he could "tell me if i am being to rough. Okay?"
