Cherri 💣

he's just so tired, that bone deep exhaustion, and all he wants is to stay in tub until he's soaked in water and comfort. he never gets to do that in peace, with the house having too many people all the time, but once he finds the opportunity, he doesn't waste it.

and you're here. next to the tub, offering him your collection of fancy soaps and bubbles. he likes the vanilla scented one best, you generously share it with him. it's all gentle words and your soft spoken voice. you talk about anything and everything, he listens and he smiles.

"can i wash your hair?" you ask and he loves the way you ask the question. you seem happy to be included in his personal comfort hour and you try to be as attentive as you can without making him talk too much. he knows you do it with purpose, you want him to rest not just his body but also his mind. "i'd love that, angel." he says, and he feels shy suddenly because how can you look like a literal angel to him with those bright eyes and that desire to take care of him? he's wrecked.

your fingers are- well, this is hard to describe, but if he had to use one word, he'd just say that they are heavenly. you are very careful with him, trying to take care of possible knots that can form in his wet hair and working your fingers through his scalp as if you want to erase every bad thing ever happened to him. "oh-" he lets out a shaky breath, "you're just- mhm, so good to me, i don't know if i deserve it." you laugh softly. "of course you do," you tell him. he believes you, he believes in anything you say with those lovely fingers taking him to a better part of his reality. "you've been so tired, haven't you? just needed this."

come to find out he's on some YOU type of shit. he's been stalking you this entire time. he didn't even have anymore interviews lined up for the role. only yours. actually hacked into your computer to have the job only show to you in some way (he's a billionaire they could do that probably). you only find out because you were putting something on his desk after you left and got nosey, snooping through drawers rightfully so. Snooping specifically through a legal folder with your name on it. thinking it was only your onboarding papers and resume maybe. but it's surviellance pictures of your home. your parents background and history. yearbook pictures of you.
