Min Yoongi

I woke up.

My eyes are open.

I feel fine.

I'm alive.

I smile.

I turn to my right and see Ara.

Sleeping.

She was in the same bed, but she wasn't close to me at all.

Is this out of respect?

Like she wants to give me space.

Or she doesn't like me?

She was curled up with no blanket on the far right, almost going to fall off.

"Don't be scared of me, Ara."

I scoot myself closer to her and I cover her with half of the 'miracle blanket'.

Ara shifts in her slumber and turns around.

I gasp.

Her face.

Wow.

-/////-

Bae Ara

I flutter my eyes open and-

I gasp really loudly. "Yoongi!"

Yoongi sits up and backs away from me. "Ara!"

I calm down and cover my face with the blankets. "Oh, sorry, Yoongi. You startled me."

"I-I'm sorry, Ara. You-You just looked cold...so I gave you some blanket." Yoongi apologized with a pout.

I smile and grab his hand. "It's ok. That's very thoughtful of you."

Yoongi turns red and looks away.

"Let me get ready because I am not a pretty sight in the morning." I laugh and stand up.

"That's a lie." Yoongi states.

I turn around. "What?"

"You....You look beautiful..." Yoongi compliments.

I blush. "Thank you."

There was silence, so I just ran to the bathroom and mentally squealed.

Hey, I'm a girl. When a guy calls you "beautiful", who will not get all giggly?

Min Yoongi

Did she blush?

Did I make her blush?

I made her blush.

I made someone blush!

I made her happy!

I smile really big as I stand up and stretch.

Wow!

I feel so refreshed!

Sleep does help.

I like sleeping.

I should do it more often.

Ara leaves the bathroom and looks at me.

I stare at her in disbelief.

She must be a morning person.

-/////-

"Would you like a turn to freshen up?" Ara smiled and takes my hand.

A chance to look that good.

I'll take it.

"Ok." I nod and Ara leads me to her bathroom.

"Would you like to take a shower?" Ara asks.

I turn beet red. "Shower?"

When was the last time I took a shower?

This is more embarrassing than I thought.

"You haven't taken a shower recently, haven't you?" She leans in to my shoulder and sniffs. "You don't smell bad at all!"

I shake my head slowly. "I haven't recently, but I would like to."

Ara smiles and nods. "Sure thing."

Ara leaves the room and I stare at the shower in confusion.

Wait. How do I use a shower?

"A-Ara?" I call out.

"Yes?"

"How do I...?" I open the curtains and purse my lips.

Ara giggles and enters the room again. "Need some help?"

"Yes please."  I look at her helplessly.

"Well, here. You turn on the shower by turning this all the way to the middle. Keep going left if you want hot water and right if you want cold." She explains.

I nod.

"Got it? Good. I'll give you some privacy now." She ruffles my hair and leaves.

I like it when she messes with my hair.

"Uh, Ara, wait." I stop her. "How DO I shower?"

Ara freezes and turns around. "Yoongi. It's simple."

I cover my face in embarrassment. "How much shampoo do I use? If I use too much, will it hurt me? Do I conditioner? What does that do anyways? What if I mix those two up? What if I have allergy reactions to any of the soaps? What if the water is too hot and blinds me and I can't turn off the water and I burn?"

Yeah...I'm either care too much or I don't a single sh*t. No in between.

"Ok, ok, I'll help. Shhh, it's ok." Ara quickly comes to me and rubs my back.

I clear my throat and breath out. "Water was never a friend of mine."

Ara stays silent, but she surprises me with a hug.

A hug?

She gave me a hug.

Warmth.

"I understand, Yoongi." Ara whispers.

I put my hands on her back. "You don't have to do this, Ara."

"Why not? You need me."

I'll be naked....

Bare...

-/////-

I take a deep breath and Ara turns around to grab towels.

I start unbuttoning my worn out white button up.

"Ok, so first we need-OH!" Ara screams and drops the towels.

I widen my eyes.

"Yoongi! Um, you-"

I take off the shirt and throw it on the ground.

Ara stares at me and then turns around while blushing like crazy.
"Yoongi, wait, you don't have to do that-th-that now."

"Ok. What do I do now?" I ask while coming closer to her.

"U-Uh, you can strip in the shower ok, Yoongi? Not in front of me." Ara says. She was obviously nervous.

Oops.

I made her nervous.

.....

"Oh. I'm sorry." I murmer and hop into the shower.

"Just...after you take off...you know....you turn on the water and adjust it so it feels warm." Ara instructs and I follow.

This is soothing.

Relaxing.

I'm glad Ara is here to help.

Water was never a friend of mine.

But...

This kind of water....

Is good....
