LOCKE
It's like having an out of body experience without the pleasure of actually being out of his body. He watches her wash him before watching her wash herself. His fingers trail along her skin as she cleans, wanting to help in some small way. He's not sure what else to do really. Finally she's done and she turns to face him, wrapping her arms around him and pressing close. Golden flecked hazel meets sea glass green and he takes a sharp breath.
He leans forward, pressing his lips to her's. He pulls back for only a second before he's kissing her again properly. His grip on her tightens just a bit and he can feel the faint sting of cuts reopening but he doesn't care. He doesn't pull away until he has to, tilting his head against her's as he pants softly. Another moment, just long enough for him to decide to do something incredibly stupid, before he's leaning over to her ear. He can't look at her while he does this.
"I love you." Confessed softly, barely above the pitter-pattering of the shower. His heart is thundering in his chest and somehow this is the scariest thing he's done all day. Half a second and he doesn't let her go, doesn't let her wiggle away. If he does, he might lose her. "I-I know it's fast. But you keep.. I needed you to know. You don't have to say it back." The end is tacked on for his own heart more than her's.

I wanna make up my mind
But I don't know myself
But I don't know myself
