The Shower (A True Story)
by Penny Kennedey
You tell everybody that if we want to shower, we should do it now. Since we have to wake up so early. I’m ready for mine, running on only three hours of sleep and a hard day in the cold.
I get my towel and go to the bathroom. You are sitting at the desk in the office just outside the bathroom door, working on something for tomorrow morning. We smile at each other before I close the door. The bathroom door has a wooden shutter in the center of it so you can see into it if you try hard enough.
I imagine you imagining me in the shower.
I take off my shirt. I step out of my pants. I unhook my bra and let it slip off.
I peer through the slit in the shutter. You are looking at the door that I am behind.
I imagine my naked silhouette from your side of the door. And how mesmerized you are.
I am careful when I take down my hair, my arms lifted above my head. I look at myself in the mirror, admiring my own round breasts. On my back, I know, are two purple scrapes. I touch the scab.
I look through the slit again. You are trying to work again but you realize that you’re being watched and turn around.
I turn on the water and step into the shower’s glass case. I know, because of that door, that you can hear the water pattering on the floor.
My muscles relax under the water.
I can’t stop thinking about you thinking about me.
I let the water pour over me. It is wonderful and warm.
I wish that you would sneak into the bathroom. You wait on the other side of the frosted glass door. You put your hand on the steamy glass. Your side is cold.
I touch the door leaving a dribbling handprint.
I can almost see your blue silhouette through the glass.
I soap my stomach and my legs. I wonder if you’re thinking about my wet thighs and arms. I can’t help but dream about your hands on me.
I try not to take too long in the shower with all of these boys in the house. I turn off the water and open the door.
You are there and, for a moment, you look at me. That body you’ve wanted glistening with water. You pull my dripping body into yours even though you are still wearing your dry clothes, the zipper of your jeans pressed against my crotch. And you start to kiss me. You kiss me like I’ve never been kissed, deep and warm and wet just like the shower. You nibble my bottom lip, then my neck.
I try to stay quiet since the door is so open. I know that everyone else could hear me. I breathe heavily.
You stop and we look at each other, almost surprised at ourselves. You run your fingertips from the curve of my breast to my hip. All I want to do is rip off your clothes. I want to rip you in half. I’m so ready to explode.
But we can’t do this where everyone can hear.
I push you off for a moment but keep you close.
“Later,” I whisper. “I promise.”
You nod even though you don’t want to.
You scuttle out of the bathroom. After I catch my breath, I towel off and put on my clothes.
When I really leave the bathroom, you are still at the desk. Then we bump into each other and I drop my panties on the floor. I run away, blushing.
