Chapter Nineteen
Blair had been wrong. It had not been dusk as she suspected. The sky had grown dark and heavy with storm clouds. She and Jodi had taken refuge under a rock overhang and were debating the merits of taking a shower when the rain began to patter.
“We need to clean that wound, and the cleanest water we’re going to find is rain.” Jodi gestured with the protein bar she was eating. “When it starts in earnest, we strip and break out the soap.”
“With our luck, we’ll be struck by lightning.”
“You’re looking at this all wrong. We’re lucky. There’s nothing living under this rock with us. We survived a cave-in, and Jason thinks we’re dead. We’re damn lucky.” Jodi popped the last of the bar into her mouth and chewed.
“Are you going to peek again?” Blair asked with a smile.
“No.” Jodi shook her head, “I’m going to openly appraise, then I’ll help wash that gash on your shoulder.”
“Wow, you are honest.”
The first large drops hit the rock in front of them. Jodi grinned at Blair as she took out the soap and pushed the pack farther into the shelter. “I’ll undress you first.” She walked over to Blair and began unbuttoning her shirt. “Think of me as your doctor.”
Blair snorted with laughter. “We’re going to play doctor?”
Jodi laughed and nodded. “And this time, you’re the patient.” She gently pulled the shirt from Blair’s shoulders and dropped it behind her. “Hold on to my shoulders and I’ll take off your boots.”
Blair balanced on one foot as Jodi undid the laces and pulled the first boot and sock off. She did the same and straightened, catching Blair’s eye. “I won’t gawk at you. I’ll turn my back while we bathe, but then I will have to clean your shoulder,” she said seriously. “Are you okay with that?”
Blair had meant it when she said she wasn’t modest, but as Jodi released her belt and began undoing her pants, she felt a flush cover her neck and face. “I can do the rest. I’ll need help with the undershirt, though.”
Jodi nodded. “Sit down on that rock and take your pants off. You don’t need another fall.”
Blair pulled her pants and underwear over her hips and sat. Jodi turned her back and stripped off her shirt. The undershirt followed. Blair watched as she bent and untied the laces of her boots, then used her foot to push them off. “You’re watching me, I can feel it.”
“I am.” Blair tried to make light of it. “I think it’s fair that I see your butt if you’ve seen mine.”
Jodi looked to the side but didn’t look over her shoulder. She hesitated a moment, then pulled the pants down her thighs.
Blair looked away then. She kicked her pants the rest of the way off and stood on wobbly legs. When Jodi turned, her gaze held Blair’s as she said, “I’ll try not to hurt you.” She took the strap of the tank top from Blair’s injured shoulder. “I think it’s better if we went down with this, instead of up.
