I roll my eyes and leave the bathroom, then go to my bedroom and find a fresh top.

Mase

I didn’t planto get in the bath, and I probably didn’t think it through. Because now I’m standing in the bathroom in nothing but a towel and no spare clothes to change into. Nina disappeared after nipplegate and I’d be lying if I said I wasn’t disappointed. She has the best tits.

Ellis bounces in my arms, pointing towards the door, and I make the decision to go out and find her. I need my clothes dried before I can leave and that won’t happen until I get them in the dryer.

We find Nina in the kitchen. She has an oversized hoodie pulled over her, hiding herself from me.

“We thought we should apologise.”

She spins, her eyes dropping down my body then snapping back to my face. “You did?”

“Yeah, we didn’t mean to get you wet.” I look at Ellis trying not to laugh. I’m a bastard.

“You didn’t?” Her head drops to the side, her eyes flitting down the length of my body.

“Not with the water anyway.” I openly smirk at her.

“Will you put some clothes on already?” She shakes her head as if her reaction to me is wrong. “Please.”

“I thought this is what we did? Or are you the only one who can get naked?”

Her cheeks flame and she steps towards us, taking the clothes from my hands. “I will put these in the dryer. Ellis has clothes in the dresser in my room.”

“Let’s get you warmed up then, little dude.” I bounce him in my arms and disappear down the hallway.

Nina’s bedroom is boring, with little on the walls. I wonder why she doesn’t make it more homely. Placing Ellis in his cot, I take out some pyjamas then dress him.

“This is a good one, it says ‘Boss like Daddy’,” I tell him, pulling the top over his head and then smoothing down his hair.

“We could do with a brush.” His hair is thick and dark and seems to grow more and more every day. It’s long enough to style just like mine. Taking the brush from the top of the dresser, I sit him on the bed and style it into perfection.

“You look good.” I smile down at him, holding out my fist which he grabs and tries to chew.

“Let’s go find Mummy, and hey!” I point at him. “You need to try that Mum, Mum thing again. I think I saw the Ice Queen melt a little.”

“Da Da Da Da.” He bounces in my arms, and I plant a kiss on his smooth head, inhaling the clean smell of his shampoo.

I don’t see Ellis anywhere near as much as I’d like, yet we have him fifty-fifty. I don’t know how other dads do it, especially every other weekend dads. I can’t think of anything more important than the precious hours I get with him during the week.

Before we go back out into the lounge, I pull on my jeans, the only things I saved from Ellis’s water onslaught. Nina is laying out the table when we enter the living area, and she can’t help her hungry eyes from roaming my body. If there was any doubt before now that I still did it for her, after today, I know for absolute certain that I do.

I can’t help but mess with her. It’s been too long. “Are you dribbling?”

“Shut up.” She glares. “Would you like to stay for tea?”

I can see her gnawing on the inside of her cheek, and I know it would have taken a lot for her to put aside her pride and ask me that. So instead of being smart with her, I simply tell her. “Yes. Thank you.”

“Maybe I could find you a top that will fit you.” She stares at my chest, and I almost feel bad. If roles were reversed, and she was standing naked in just a pair of jeans, commando, with her breasts on full display… yeah, I’m hard.

I readjust myself in my jeans, whilst Ellis looks puzzled between the two of us. He has never known us to be in the same room for so long before. This must be alien to him.

“You’re unbelievable, you know that?” she snaps as if she can’t hold it in any longer, shaking her head as she starts to turn away.

“What?”
