Mei-Rin was really hesitant about it all. They had just met, after all, and she knew almost nothing about the man before her. Only that he was someone whose social status was much higher than hers. And that meant two things: she should never touch him, but at the same time, she had to listen to him. To obey his words.

That was why she could not refuse now.

Blushing deeply, she glanced up at the other, handing him a piece of a ribbon she possessed. Her hand trembled a bit, for she had no idea what he had planned for her.

His fingers drift, brushing through long blonde tresses before planting a kiss atop her head, and instantly Rikku sinks a bit further into the tub with a purr. “This was a great idea, Eaden.” Words are soft && lazy as she relaxes against his chest, pulling his arms around her waist just a bit tighter. His closeness was serene; settling her in her own skin with such a fervent ease. He was comfortable to be around; never critical of her, never inconsiderate or selfish, never not mindful of her – this was no exception. If anything, his idea to bathe together was likely the sweetest thing anyone had ever offered her. And while something about that made her feel forlorn, she was ultimately grateful for his time && his kindness. 

His hand around her collar made her suddenly shrink into herself. She felt small && weak as his darkness filled the room, forcing her to cower in front of him. A sadness swept across her face, one she knew he wouldn’t care about. After all, this was never about feelings -- least of all her own. This was only ever about him and his needs, and whatever scraps she could get from the feeling of being dominated && disciplined, but... She had needed him. She had needed his strength, his ability to make her feel safe during even the most unsafe ventures that went on between them. She had needed him to keep her afloat. Perhaps it was wrong to try and hand her emotional baggage to him; to try and make him responsible for her happiness... or, something. Perhaps that was foolish, selfish && a show of just how desperate and needy she was to be... cared for.
