It was only when X started stripping that Shouichi realized what a bad idea this was, his cheeks heating in embarrassment. However, he had said that they would bath together, and he wasn't about it back out of it.
Slowly, he put the pieces of his coat and shirt aside to work on removing his pants, careful to put the pistol Gamma had given him somewhere safe so that it wouldn't get wet. Once his clothes were off, he ducked his head, stepping into the tub and shifting aside so that X could get in as well.
This was the first time he was bathing with someone else ever since he was able to bathe himself, and it felt a little awkward as he found himself unsure of where to look.
