When I made it back to the condo unit, I grabbed my purse and ran into the door, crying out in triumph when the lights came back on a few seconds later. Knowing I wouldn’t have a lot of time, I quickly grabbed up several thick towels from the bathroom and shoved them in the dryer along with Itch’s soaked t-shirt and cranked it on high. I ran back into the bedroom, retrieving a laundry basket we kept in the units for the guests and walked back into the living room. I turned the electric fireplace on low, just enough to warm the small area around it up, threw open the sliding glass door to let the stifling air escape and swap it with fresh air and then made a bee-line back to my car. As I pulled the cooler out of my trunk, Itch pulled up and quickly got out of the truck, his bag in his hand and I raced over to him and climbed into the truck, retrieving mama cat and a couple of the kittens. I handed them off to him, grabbed up the remaining four and hurried into the condo.

“Over by the fireplace,” I said quietly as we made our way through and he carefully placed the family down on the floor. “There’s just my cooler, bag of clothes and my laptop in the trunk, can you go get, please?”
He nodded as we both got up and as he slipped out the door, I grabbed the laundry basket and the warm towels from the dryer and headed over to the family. Making quick work of it, I set several of the towels into the basket then taking one of the warmed towels, I started drying off mama cat. The kittens meowed and moved around me as I worked as fast as I could, and when she was nothing more than damp, I set her in the basket and grabbed the nearest kitten.

By the time Itch returned to me, four of the kittens had snuggled deep into the warm blankets and mama cat relaxed and stretched out, watching me intently with big green doll eyes. The kittens immediately went after her, taking in a late lunch and as I set the last kitten into the basket, Itch was behind me. He worked quickly and quietly as he pulled the various pins from my hair, releasing my soaking wet mop from the top of my head and with the last remaining warm towels, began to dry it as best as he could.

“Well aren’t we a wet bunch of characters,” I said to mama and she meowed at me as she watched us. “We would have lost these guys if I hadn’t seen her.”

“Like I said, beautiful, I wouldn’t have chanced going out there. But I’m glad you did, looks like a happy family reunited.” I took hold of his hands and he stood up behind me as I got up myself and when I turned to face him, I gave him a long hug. “Big balls, lady, you got some big balls.”

“Thanks for helping.” I said into his ear and then as we broke the hug, our soaking wet clothes clung together and snapped back on us. We laughed as I stepped away from him, moving to get my clothes bag. “I’m sick of being wet, but I need to get warm in a hurry. Going in to take a shower, you jumping in, too?”

Under normal circumstances, that would have opened the floodgates of extreme vulgarity from the man, but considering what we had just done, he simply nodded and moved to his bag.

“Yeah, I’ll run into the next unit. No telling how long we’ve got before the power goes out again, we’ll lose what hot water we do have.” He slipped out of the door and let himself in the next in the blink of an eye as I made my way into the bathroom with my clothes. I turned on the water, getting it nice and warm before I slipped back out into the living room. I checked on the family one more time, most of the kittens were done eating and they were curled up sleeping with mama. I stroked her a few times as she softly meowed at me and when I heard her purring, I stood straight and walked into my hot shower with a smile.

The shower was mind-blowing good, the shower head one that had different settings on it. I opted for the massaging setting and groaned as it began to beat on my already tender muscles. I was going to feel every inch of the rescue in the morning and as the last of the adrenaline was used up, I found myself sitting on the shower floor for a few moments, letting the water beat on my head. I stayed there for as long as I could and when I detected the slightest change in temperature, I stood up, shaved my legs, under arms and cunt, washed and conditioned my hair and made it out of the shower just as the water went cold.

I dried off quickly and as I slipped into my comfy clothes, another pair of yoga pants and an oversized shirt with thick, warm socks, I headed out into the living room and my gut wrenched as I stepped in. I caught the scent of his cologne in the air and as I fought to keep my composure, I concentrated on each step as I walked up behind him as he stood the glass doors. I gazed on the tattoo again, the intricacy and detail was amazing and when I stepped up behind him to close the distance, he turned to face me.

“Oh now that’s a sexy outfit,” He wolf-whistled and I swatted him with the towel I was using to dry my hair. “I think I like you without makeup.”

“Don’t lie to me, asshole.” He laughed loud as I looked out the doors, noticing that the rain had stopped and the sun was actually threatening to break through the clouds.
