Samantha made her way to her new room from the kitchen (http://elliquiy.com/forums/index.php?topic=77434.msg3664652#msg3664652) easily enough.  She'd always been good with directions and as Christina showed her around had been building a mental map of the large home.<br/><br/>"Perfect" She sighed closing the door behind her, but not locking it, and taking in the room.  It was an amazing room with more room than her apartment, she noted.  The bed looked gargantuan to her, perfectly sized to share with another person...or two.  There were several other places to lounge about the room, the chaise big enough for two looked particularly intriguing.  She explored further finding an attached bathroom that was just as opulently appointed as the room with a garden tub.  Oh yes, she could definitely unwind here.<br/><br/>She decided to begin her unwinding with a shower to wash away the heat and the dirt of the drive.  The corner shower has several shower heads places about it to hit the body from all angles, or, she thought with a smile, keep another in warm water during a shared shower.  The thoughts of how long it had been since she'd had time for a date, let alone sharing her bed or her shower with someone danced through her mind.  Inky was right, she need to relax, to unwind, to pamper herself.  Though her friend had been much more crude about her descriptions.<br/><br/>The shower took a good half hour, most of it spent just luxuriating in the hot water that came at her from all angles.  Her skin was rosy pink and warm when she stepped out of the shower and dried herself.  She pampered her skin with one of the lotions from the counter and wrapped in a silk robe from her bag.  She grabbed the smutty romance novel she'd packed and lounged on the chaise to read.
