8 Lets Take A Bath........ (1/2)
Max only slept for about 3 hours before waking up, but he still felt remarkably refreshed for such a short rest. He was even able to stand up, however he couldnt move his arms very well yet, and he still felt rather weak, almost like he couldnt stand up. It was then that the fact that he had been completely naked finally registered with him. His whole bottom half had been bandaged, and this fact made him feel slighty uncomfortable. It didnt matter who did it, Mimosa or Fuegoleon, because he considered both of them too unfamiliar to be taking a look at his junk. While he wasn't ashamed of others looking at him naked, that only applied to when he was fully conscious. It fully bothered him when he thought about bandaging his naked body while he out cold.
Well, there wasn't anything to be done about it so he didnt let it bother him too much. What was done was done, there wasn't any way that he could change it so no use bringing it up. Max took a shaky step forward and quickly realized that he would need support if he wanted to get around.
Placing a hand on the wall, Max leaned against it as he began a slow unsteady walk towards the door. It was just like during when he first died, when he had woken up naked in that bizarre hallway. It all felt painfully slow, but at least this time he had something on, even if it was just bandages. By the time he reached the door, he was covered in sweat and desperately need of a shower.
Max opened the door and peeked his head out, looking left and right. After making sure thayt no one was there, he stepped out. The place he was currently was just a hallway, but this one had multiple doors on each side of them, every one of them had intricate designs carved into it, with every one containing their own unique patterns.
”This must be how they know what behind each door. However, they could have at least had one that has a bathroom sign on it. The fact that they didnt even have a bathroom in the room is stupid.” Max mentally sighed as he began walking down the hallway, checking each and every door in search of the legendary bathroom that's said to appear every once in every ten years.
The first couple of doors on the left side contained only bedrooms, which led Max to believe that there was actually a number of people living in this house. The next room was where things got complicated, but not for him as he didn't see anything wrong with it.
This door had intricate designs of roses on them and even had a name on it, but Max was in a hurry and didnt even bother to read it. Actually, he should have known better since this was usually how cliches and misunderstandings came into play in cheesy animes. However, he wasnt thinking straight and opened the door anyways without thinking about it.
The room itself was gorgeous! The walls were painted pink with numerous roses scattered along them, and the furniture was top class, probably suited to fit the latest fashion of this world. However, this all compared to the beauty in front of him. She had long vermilion colored hair and bright green and sported a matching set of lacy pink bra and panties. If this had been an anime, blood would have definitely started pouring from his nose.
Of course, the beauty in front of him was Mimosa, but to be honest he didnt have time to appreciate her voluptuous body, as a book came soaring at him followed by an embarassed scream. ”You pervert, either learn to read or learn to knock.” The book nailed him in the forehead and hit him with such force that he not only fell on his ass, but blood even trailed down from the wound on his forehead.
The door slammed shut and the sound of cursing could be heard from the other end. Max just shook his head and struggled to stand up, rubbing the blood away with the back of his hand. ”You couldve at least told me the way to the bathroom.” He shouted as he began walking away.
There was the sound of a bang from behind the door and then the sound of a lock turning. The door opened ever so slightly and Mimosa peeked her head out. ”You wanted to take a bath? In your condition?”
Max turned around and stared at her, obvious confusion in his face. ”Um yeah, how else am I gonna get clean? You expect me to go the next couple of days without so much as one single bath?” After watching so much anime, he already knew where she was about to go with this, but it was still important to go through the motions. He didn't plan on being one of those weak, dim witted protagonists who couldnt even tell when a girl or woman was hitting on him.
Mimosas face slowly turned red as she stepped out into the hallway, her pink underwear a sharp contrast to her light skin complexion. ”My cousin said that I have to take care of you. Don't think too much of it as I'm only doing what I was told.” Her face had become so red that Max wouldnt have been too surprised if steam had started pouring out of her ears.
”So what your saying is,” Max said, a smirk spreading across his face. ”That you wanna take a bath with me? Sounds like your moving forward very quickly.....you are very cute but I'm not sure how I feel about being seduced so suddenly.” He would've kept going with his joke, but was interrupted by a strong punch to his gut.
