Convincing Her (Jen And Lucas) Chapter 195 - I Won't Touch You

Jen was totally fl.u.s.tered. She had completely forgotten that they were nowhere close to any protection. She had even sealed the deal when she had tightly wrapped her legs around Lucas. He wouldn't have been able to pull out even if he wanted to. In conclusion, they were both careless.

Lucas lifted Jen from the table and took both of them upstairs. Jen was still in a daze. She was so out of it she started laughing at herself. Lucas didn't say anything and instead placed her in bed before he went to the bathroom to prepare the tub.

Jen lay on the bed still naked while looking at the ceiling. She knew that Lucas didn't have any diseases, if he did, she would probably have them too since they have gone pretty crazy in bed before. She would have definitely gotten what he had if he was sick. So the only existing risk was the risk of conception. As she was thinking about it, Lucas got out of the bathroom while wearing a robe.

"Aren't you cold?" Lucas asked as he handed her the robe he had carried out of the bathroom. Jen looked at him and sat up to put on the robe. 

"The tub is filling up. It should be about 15 minutes" Lucas said as he combed his fingers through his hair. Jen looked at him and figured that he was feeling better after venting earlier, but she still had to ask.

"Are you feeling better?" Jen asked. It had gotten slightly awkward between them so she wanted to fix the mood. Lucas did not answer but he nodded.

"You smoked earlier didn't you?" Jen asked. Lucas didn't think she would bring that up or even remember to bring it up but there was really no use in him denying something that was so obvious.

"Mmh" Lucas admitted. He didn't regret doing so at all. He wouldn't have come home at all if he didn't even try to calm himself down. It's not like he could drink in the office, even if he did, how would he have gotten home?

"I didn't know you smoked," Jen said. She didn't want to attack him about it since he was a grown man, but she really hated that habit.

"I used to, then I stopped. But I was too stressed out today so I smoked a few" Lucas explained.

"It's not a habit you've been hiding from me right?" Jen asked worriedly.

"Not at all. If I was going to hide it from you I would have showered before I came home" Lucas rationalised.

After Jen thought about it, what he said did make sense. If he wanted to hide it, he had an entire hotel at his disposal, he could have used any of the rooms to freshen up before coming back home. She pursed her lips together in doubt but she forced herself to accept it.

"I know I was being pretty unreasonable today, and hurt you in the process. I'm really sorry about that. I was just embarra.s.sed all by myself and I didn't take into account how you may take the whole situation. Just-" Jen paused for a few seconds as she thought about how to phrase her thoughts.

"Never doubt my feelings for you again, okay?" Jen said as she fiddled with her fingers. Lucas looked at her being nervous and felt an itch in his heard.

"Mmh, I won't," Lucas said and cradled her to his side.

"I also can't promise that this will be my last time being unreasonable," Jen said as if giving a disclaimer making Lucas chuckle before he nodded in acknowledgement.

"Let's go now. The tub should be full" Lucas said as he stood up.

Jen stood up from the bed once Lucas disappeared and followed him to the bathroom. When she got inside, Lucas was cleaning up in the shower as he got ready to go into the bathtub. The bathroom was steaming and the water in the bathtub had started frothing from the whirlpool.

Jen's face reddened when she looked at Lucas in the shower. The only instances where they were in the shower together consisted of her being pressed against the wall or the gla.s.s frame while desperately hanging on to Lucas as they had their way with each other. 

Even though she wanted to join him, she was not sure about how that would turn out. She just felt awkward, especially since she was standing there looking at him like some sort of pervert.

"You can join me," Lucas said with a naughty smile when he noticed Jen's embarra.s.sment.

"I'll just wait for you to finish?" Jen said while avoiding his gaze.

"Are you shy?" Lucas asked his voice clearly amused.

"I'm just feeling awkward, okay?" Jen said indignantly.

"If you wait then it means I'll have to wait for you to join me in the tub, I promise I won't touch you," Lucas said teasingly.

Jen's eyes looked at him sharply. What was wrong with his tone? Why did he sound like someone who is corrupting a virgin? 

She knew she was being goaded but she decided that there was no point in being embarra.s.sed. At the end of the day, there was no part of each other's bodies they hadn't seen.

As Jen rationalised why she should just hop into the shower with him, she figured that since they were going to be undressed in the tub later, then there wouldn't be much of a difference.

Jen took off the robe that covered her and went into the shower with Lucas. She had really worked up a sweat earlier so she did need the shower before going into the tub. Fortunately for her, the shower was s.p.a.cious so it was not uncomfortable.

Lucas kept his promise and didn't touch her. He had even stopped teasing her because even though she had bravely gotten in, her face was still flushed from embarra.s.sment.

Lucas got into the tub and closed his eyes. He was relieved that his resolved feelings were resolved, at least in the short term as Jen and Tyler hadn't actually met yet.
