Taking a shower when we got home was a workout in and of itself. My legs were shaking and ached every time I leaned over to grab the soap.

I almost fell when I reached out to grab the towel from it's hook. Groaning, I dried myself off and tucked the towel under my arms as I emerged from the bathroom into the bedroom.

He stumbled over his words as he laid eyes on my towel-clad body.

"I-um.." he started, rubbing the back of his neck, "I have some stuff that I need to get done this afternoon. I just wanted to let you know I was leaving. I probably won't be home until late."

I nodded.

"That's fine."

Luca watched my reaction slowly and I realized I may have sounded too happy to hear he was leaving.

"I guess I'll see you later, then," he said.

I nodded again, following him.

Our eye contact didn't break until I had closed the door.
