Chapter Text
"Amanda?"
They were sitting in the Corvette at a lookout point over the Potomac, watching the to and fro of boats on the river and cars on the bridge while they ate the Marvin's burgers they had picked up for lunch.
"Mmm hmm?"
"You never did say how you managed to get showered that second morning."
He glanced sideways and watched her start to blush while rigidly staring ahead out the windshield.
"Oh, you know, tops and tails, just like you."
"And that wasn't too uncomfortable for you?" It was like he couldn't resist teasing her, even though he wasn't sure how he felt about getting an answer.
"Oh Lee. I was married, you know. And it hasn't been that long since I used to bathe the boys in the shower with me."
"Amanda! Way to hurt a guy! Did you actually just compare showering as me to washing a small boy?"
He'd wanted to see if he could make her blush more, and he'd succeeded, but he was surprised when she pressed her lips together, obviously trying not to laugh. As he watched, she had sneaked a peek towards him before giving up and starting to laugh outright.
"Oh, it wasn't so different."
"Seriously?"
She'd finally managed to stop laughing and turned to him with her most demure expression before going on. "Well, it was a very, very, very cold shower!"
"A-MAN-DA!"
