Alyssa tilted her head to the side considering her friend's observation. "Do you Like the new me?" She asked quietly.

"You're a bit intimidating, but yeah, I Like the new you a Lot!" Sparks said honestly.

“Well that's all that matters then" Alyssa said with a grin.

“Come on, I need to get out of this armour!" She led her smaller friend into her huge bedroom and then through to the walk in wardrobe.

The redhead marvelled at the opulent Luxury of their room and the impressively huge four poster bed. When she followed her friend through the first of the two doors to her right, Sparks eyes were so wide, it looked like they were about to fall out of her head.

“This is just your closet?" She asked stunned.

“Uh-huh” Alyssa said as she stood in the middle of the room, unzipping her combat armour and piling up the ceramic plated sections on the floor. She noticed John's gear was neatly stowed away in the corner, so she placed hers next to his in its usual spot.

She felt stiff from wearing the armour for several hours, so she stretched her arms over her head to get the kinks out of her muscles. She heard a startled gasp behind her and she turned around to look at Sparks.

“You're naked!" Sparks gasped, reddening up in embarrassment again.

Alyssa looked down at her gloriously nude body in mock amazement “Why yes I am!" she exclaimed.

“Do you like?" She asked, posing provocatively.

Sparks made a concerted effort to get over her prudishness and gulped loudly. Alyssa looked at her with a raised eyebrow as if asking the question again and Sparks nodded tentatively.

“Would you Like to Look like this?" Alyssa asked pointedly.

“You know I could never look like that" Sparks mumbled embarrassed .

“Well we'll just have to wait and see, won't we" Alyssa replied archly. "Ok now strip off those clothes, let's go have a shower." she said happily “I really want to wash Karron off me

Sparks gulped again, steeling herself and then shyly began to remove her clothes. Alyssa waited patiently and then threw her a towel "Let's go!" the ravishing blonde said cheerfully.

Alyssa led Sparks into the adjoining bathroom and sashayed over to John, who was sitting in the huge bath and kissed him tenderly. Sparks squeaked and tried to cover herself with the towel, her earlier bravado in the briefing room long forgotten.

“Come on you, let's get that shower" Alyssa said, walking back to Sparks and leading her to the shower. John closed his eyes and sank a bit lower into the bath to save the girl further embarrassment.

Alyssa activated the shower and pulled the smaller girl in with her. With a no-nonsense attitude she soaped up her hands and then began to clean up her friend, who had built up layers of grime after countless hours spent labouring away in the grubby workshop. Sparks stood there tense and stiff to start with, mortified at her friend running her hands all over her body. However Alyssa had a gentle but firm touch and the way she massaged her muscles as she cleaned felt amazing. The luscious blonde started with Sparks spiky hair and carefully washed out all the gel holding up the spikes. The young girl was left with a shock of short, red hair as Alyssa then began to work down her body.

Eventually Sparks relaxed completely, just luxuriating in the sensations and didn't even react when her friend ran her soapy hands over her breasts and between her legs. It didn't feel sexual, it just felt caring, as Alyssa laboured to get her completely clean. Her skin tingled when Alyssa rinsed all the soap off her and Sparks could honestly say she had never been cleaner before in her life.

“Now time for a bath!" Alyssa said excitedly "I swear, you haven't lived until you've had a long soak in a bubble bath!"

Caught up with her friends infectious enthusiasm, the redhead followed after her and carefully stepped into the glistening pile of soapy bubbles stacked up at the end of the bath. She was so distracted that she forgot John was there at the other end, lying right down in the water as he was. Alyssa pushed gently on her back to get her to move forward and then the Lithesome beauty slipped gracefully into the water behind her.
