Carlos laughed out loud at that. “No, no! I expect those kind of responses from you!”
he explained. “I just… I’m sorry for blurting out something so… natural,

though, I promise. I’m a big boy. Besides, it’d be a little awkward with me
naked in the tub and you just standing there with a rag, wouldn’t it…?”

“I was thinkin’ maybe I’d get in the tub with you, actually. Unless you’re not into that idea.” He watched him with a curious look, gauging his reaction. “What do you think? We could try to make it nice and romantic with candles and shit if ya like, it’s up to you.”

Carlos was frankly shocked. He stared at Hancock, his eyes
wide but his face otherwise blank. Hancock wanted to be in the tub with him. He… didn’t think people did
that. Why would they do that?

“Uh… I… I dunno,” he said to Hancock, finally. “I just… I
had no idea that… was an option. Is that… something you want to do?” He was a little bit embarrassed now, but… he was curious about it honestly.
