YOU ARE CHEATING

As the night descended upon them, Julian gently helped Astrid into the bathtub, his hands cradling her fragile body with care. 

The warm water enveloped her, soothing her aching muscles and calming her frazzled nerves. 

Julian's eyes never left hers, his gaze filled with concern and adoration, the afternoon event still was on his mind.

As he bathed her, Astrid felt a sense of relief wash over her. The past few days had been a blur of pain and medication, and she was grateful for Julian's tender care. 

She leaned back against the tub, letting out a soft sigh as Julian's hands massaged her shoulders.

Once the bath was finished, Julian carefully lifted Astrid out of the tub and wrapped her in a plush towel. 

He carried her to the bed, gently laying her down on the soft sheets, like always helping her choose lingerie and like she would always want.
