Putting the key card up to the lock, Bucky waits for the green light and pushes the door open. Holding it he moves to the side to let Shuri enter first. She’s barely in the room before he sweeps her up in his arms and carries her into the bedroom. Sitting her carefully on the floor he moves behind her and unzips her dress and with a few careful tugs it falls to the floor leaving her in only her strapless bra, panties and shoes.
“Damn baby. You are so sexy.” Bucky meant it. He thought she was sexy before she was pregnant, but now with his child growing inside of her, she was perfection.
“Thank you love, but I don’t feel very sexy right now. Everything hurts.” Shuri loved that he still found her sexy especially now that she was showing so much and could barely walk without a waddle.
“I know it does doll. I could tell you were uncomfortable pretty much all evening. I’m glad this was our last event before your due date. I hate seeing you miserable. Now you can wear comfy clothes and relax.” Bucky helped her step out of her dress and led her over the bed.
The dinner that evening had been their last official engagement before Shuri took maternity leave. They both knew she wouldn’t stay away from her lab, but she wouldn’t have to travel or represent the country at any events until well after the baby was born. This would give them time to finish preparing for their little ones arrival.
Sitting her down, he bent and raised first one foot then the other and removed her shoes. Rubbing her ankles as he did.
“Mmmmmm that feels amazing.” She closed her eyes and moaned.
“Good. Now you stay right here. I’m going to go run a bath.” He kissed her and got up and walked into the bathroom.
Starting the tub to run, Bucky removed a gift bad from under the sink. When Shuri had been showering before the party, he had called down to the Concierge and told her what he wanted. She had promised him to have it delivered to the room while they were at the party and where she would have it hidden. Pulling out a bottle of lavender and honey oil he added a few drops to the water and put the bottle aside. He then pulled out candles and a lighter and began to place them all around the room, lighting them as he went. Finally he pulled out a bar of lavender scented soap and placed it in the holder on the side of the tub. Turning off the water, he tested it to make sure it wasn’t too warm or not warm enough. Deciding that it was perfect, he made his way to the door and out to the bedroom.
“Doll?” He moved closer and she looked up at him. “Your bath is ready.” He reached out for her hand and led her into the bathroom.
When she saw the candles and smelled the lavender, she teared up. “Oh Bucky, thank you. It's so pretty and it smells wonderful.”
“Anything for my Princess and little Princess.” He rubbed her belly.
“Still sure we’re having a girl eh?” Shuri had agreed not to find out. Bucky asked for very little from her, so when he asked if they could not find out the sex until the baby's arrival, she had agreed.
“I know it. I can tell.” He helps her remove her robe and step into the water. Taking his white dress shirt off he hangs it on the hook behind the door.
“Aren’t you getting in?” She asked adjusting the neck pillow behind her head.
“Not tonight. Wanna take care of you.” He knelt down and took the wash cloth in his hand and grabbed the soap. Lathering up the cloth he sits the soap back down and picks up her arm.
Making slow steady strokes he washes both arms and then adds more soap. This time he focuses on her chest and stomach, taking time and care with her stomach. Leaning down he talks to it.
“Hey there little Princess. It's your daddy. I’m taking good care of mommy so that when you decide you want to join us she’ll be rested and ready.” He leaned forward and kissed her stomach. “Daddy loves you.” Lathering up the cloth again he worked his way up and down each leg. Then he took first one foot and then the other and gently washing them and massaging the ball of the foot.
“Mmmmmm, Bast that feels good.” Shuri moaned and closed her eyes. She loved his hands on her and the metal hand enabled him to apply more than normal pressure on the areas that he knew hurt her the most. It was heaven.
“Glad you like it doll.” Rinsing the rag and laying aside, he takes the soap and this time lathered up his right hand never breaking eye contact with her. “Now why don’t you lean back and spread those pretty little legs for me?”
Shuri swallowed hard and did as he asked. He took his metal hand and gently raised her up out of the water by her rear. When she was clear of the water and her legs still apart, he took his hand and began washing her folds. Slow deliberate strokes, his finger barely grazing over her sensitive nub. Their sex life had always been great, but since she’d been pregnant and once the morning sickness had subsided she had the stamina of, well a super solder, not seeming to ever get enough.
Once he was done he carefully lifted her from the tub. “Bucky, what are you doing?” She snuggled down into his arms.
“To the shower. It's time to rinse and I need to make sure I didn’t miss any body parts.” He replied as he opened the shower door.
