Victor shifted; he wasn\u2019t used to this kind of expression, or really he wasn\u2019t used to talking about his childhood years at all. The water traveled through his hair and down his cheeks like small streams as he smiled down at her, his hands resting on her hips. \u201cYou\u2019re incredible, you know that?\u201d He punctuated his statement with a quick kiss before turning so that he could get some shampoo and start washing his hair.<\/span><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

Summer ducked her head at the compliment. \u201cThis is just what I do,\u201d she told him, backing up a little to be out of range of stray soap. \u201cIt\u2019s not really all that special.\u201d It never felt special to her. Sometimes it felt like a weight, always listening and never heard. Really, all most people needed was a listening ear and someone to honestly believe in and care for them.<\/p>\n

In the end, she\u2019d learned, mostly that was all she could do; people had to heal themselves. They had to choose on their own to forget, forgive, remember, release \u2014 whatever was needed to be at peace with whatever had happened. It was never \/easy\/. But it was always \/possible\/, if you didn\u2019t fully give up. Some days, all you could do was hold on to the ground you\u2019d won.<\/p>\n

Summer leaned against the shower wall and just watched Victor, as she so rarely got to do.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

\u201cWell this,\u201d he gestured to himself and all around him, \u201cisn\u2019t something most people can do and I appreciate it.\u201d Victor smiled a big grin as he lathered the shampoo into his hair then shook his head much like a dog would sending little clouds of shampoo through the air. He laughed then went back under the water to rinse his hair and begin washing the rest of himself. Victor looked back at her with a smirk, \u201cYou enjoying the show Summer?\u201d<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

She blushed horribly and poked him. \u201cShut up, you dork. Or I\u2019ll make you wash \/me\/.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

Victor jumped when she poked him, stuck his tongue out at her before he waggled his eyebrows. \u201cYou say that like it\u2019s a punishment darling. As a matter of fact, I wouldn\u2019t mind that at all,\u201d he said, thinking she was rather cute when she blushed.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

“You’re incorrigible.” Summer shook her head, picking up the soap herself. “I know what would happen if you washed me.” But she didn’t try to hide her smile, either.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
