[computations]

[Thankfully, in Egypt, since they're in a western style hotel, alcohol is easy to come by. And Sion, being 19, can purchase it.

In the meantime, a little before Akiha had arrived, Sion had filled the tub with piping hot water, put in the bubble bath, and turned on the whirlpool system. Yeah, that would be perfect.]

[ritsu_kouyou]

[This would be Akiha fumbling with the keycard for a moment before finally getting it open.]

...I'm back.

[computations]

[Right when Sion was undressed and had a towel around herself. Whoops.]

O-One minute. I was not quite ready.

[She hurries over into the bathroom.]

[ritsu_kouyou]

I, um... have some things to--

[Frozen like a deer in the headlights when she caught that brief glimpse.]

[computations]

[Slamming the bathroom door shut! Sorry, Akiha. For the moment...]

[ritsu_kouyou]

[Oh. That actually was helpful. The slamming of the door unfroze Akiha and she started to put the things from the bags away.

She lit a few candles up in the sleeping area of the room and sprinkled some rose petals on top of the bed. Her eyes moved to the closed bathroom door for a moment before she looked back at the bed. She narrowed her eyes a moment before tossing some more rose petals down - this time onto the floor in a light trail from the bed to the bathroom door. It looked ridiculous, but Sion had asked for it. Sort of.

Returning to her bags, she pulled out a couple small bottles of scented oil out and dabbed a little on each pillow... and behind her own ears. Then she took out two bundles wrapped in tissue paper with a ribbon tied about them - one ribbon purple, the other red. Her hands shook a bit as she looked at them and then at the bathroom door.]

S-Sion?

[computations]

[Now that she was in the water and thoroughly covered by bubbles, a lot of the hesitation in her voice is gone.]

I apologize. You can come in now.

[ritsu_kouyou]

Is the champagne in there with you?

[Looking around for it...]

[computations]

Check the small refrigerator.

[Muffled a bit since she's in the bath with a whirlpool running.]

When you find it, you could....join me.

[ritsu_kouyou]

[She looks! She finds the bottle!]

Just a moment...

[Sion may hear the pop of the cork if she's listening. A little bit later, the bathroom door opens a crack. Akiha pauses a moment to take a deep breath before shouldering the door open enough to enter, open bottle and a pair of flutes in one hand and a small tray of chocolate covered cherries in her other balanced on top of the two tissue paper bundles.

She doesn't even look toward the whirlpool yet, turning to set things down on the sink counter before he dropped anything. Yes, she was still dressed.]

[computations]

You certainly purchased a lot.

[Even if she looked, there wasn't much visible of Sion except her head. Her neck on down was buried in white bubbles. Sion set it up like that to reduce her own embarrassment. But because her clothes were folded up and her towel was rumpled on the floor by the tub.]

[ritsu_kouyou]

Three year's worth of romance requires a lot.

[She set the bundles with the purple ribbon on top of Sion's clothes and the other bundle where her own would end up. She then did glance up, face flushing a bit, and move the vanity stool over next to the whirlpool so she could set the strawberries and champagne on it. Carefully, she poured the two glasses and made sure all was okay before stepping back to the sinks, grabbing a towel on her way, so she could get ready.

First, her hair had to be brushed out before she began to undress.]

[computations]

[Sion was honestly a bit excited about this. She squirmed in the tub a bit, waiting for Akiha to get in. Well, even if it took a while, they did have aaaaaaaall night.]

[ritsu_kouyou]

[Back to the tub, Akiha's clothing found its way to the floor, but she took a moment in just her camisole and panties to fold the rest properly. Then those disappeared quickly and the towel was wrapped about her.]

By your clothing is a bundle. In there is something I b-bought for you to wear to bed.

[Hand clutching the towel at her front, she walked over to the whirlpool and looked down at Sion, pale skin quite pink with how much she was blushing.]

[computations]

[Sion turned her eyes down so she wasn't looking. She...she didn't need to see Akiha while she was nude. Not yet. Something about that seemed right...and more exciting.]

When we are done, I can wear that.

[ritsu_kouyou]

[Akiha was grateful Sion turned her gaze away. Despite her girlfriend's words, she couldn't help but wonder if her body would be disappointing to see. Unattractive with her lack of chest.]

Thank you.

[And she lowered her towel before slipping quickly into the whirlpool.]

[computations]

[Once Akiha was settled, Sion's feet searched around until she found Akiha's. With the physical contect, she settled and looked up at Akiha with a smile.]

This is something I really wanted for some reason. So...I'm happy.

[ritsu_kouyou]

[Akiha responded by shifting her foot so she could gently stroke her toes over Sion's ankle.]

I want you to be happy. Shall we toast to it?

[And she's going to reach out to grab the champagne flutes.]

[computations]

Of course.

[An arm rises out of the bubbles to take one from Akiha. Champagne had almost no alcohol but Sion was entirely unsure of the effects alcohol had on her body. She feared that perception may skew things.]

[ritsu_kouyou]

To your happiness... and birthday wishes.

[With a clink of glasses, Akiha take a sip and swirls it about in her mouth before swallowing.] Not bad...

[computations]

And to...our love.

[That was it. She didn't know how to exactly drink this so she ended up with a mouth full. And grimaced as she swallowed.]

[ritsu_kouyou]

Take smaller sips.

[computations]

You should [cough] tell me that ahead of time.

[ritsu_kouyou]

I didn't realize you had never drank before.

[computations]

Alcohol has never passed my lips before. [Well, now Akiha knows. And knows to be wary.]
