there were many things quinn looked forward to in his life; playing against his brothers during the season, making childish digs at petey and brock during practice, but nothing outdid the feeling of you gently twirling his curls around your finger as you washed the soapy suds out of his hair.
he had just gotten back from an east coast roadie, jet lag and missing hours of sleep were settled deep into his bones, his eyes closing shut the second you brought him into the shower. warm steam enveloped the both of you the faint scent of eucalyptus filled the air from the bundle hung around the shower head neck.
you stumbled back half a step as quinn draped his entire body onto you, an amused chuckle rumbling against your bodies, "ok sweet boy, you've gotta work with me here."
"oh... yeah, sorry." quinn managed to mumble out, thick arms already wound around your middle and his head heavy on your shoulder as he helped slowly shuffle the both of you closer to where the water fell.
you took your time with the defenseman's hair, making sure it was properly wet before grabbing the bottle of shampoo, and massaging it into his locks. fingers moving with purpose from his hairline to the base of his neck, scrubbing away all the negative thoughts of the three game losing streak, taking care to also gently wash then sensitive skin behind his ears.
you felt a puff of warm hair hit your skin, "''s tickly baby." his hands moving to grip at your waist, fingers flexing ever so slightly as you neared your completion of step one, "'m almost done here, hold on for a little longer." a goofy smile settling on your lips.
flicking your hands down to rid most of the soapy suds you then brought them back up to hold his chin, "ok, tilt your head back for me- there you go." you cooed, his dark lashes kissing his freckled cheeks as the white soap flowed down the column of his neck, using gravity to let the water rinse out his hair.
gazing up at him, you thanked your lucky stars for whatever let you be here with him, his face void of any stress he brought back from the long roadie. finally, with clean water washing over the soft slope of his nose you brought a hand up to coax him back into you, "gotta put some conditioner in honey, we're almost done."
as quinn pulled back from the water and closer to you, he finally opened his eyes. and though they were still heavily hooded, you could finally see the flecks of green in his hazel hues and to your hearts desire, a small smile was placed on his lips.
his thumbs drew languid circles into the flesh of your hip, relishing in the gentleness of your fingers looping around his curls with the conditioner of yours he loved so much. the smell of oats and shea butter filling the steamy bathroom as you meticulously worked across his head, your brows furrowed in concentration before quinn's hand came up to sooth the wrinkles that found their way there.
a cheeky smile prodded at your lips, "looks like we're all done here, just gotta wash it out one last time." you said, pressing up on your toes to press a sweet kiss to his lips. you held onto his biceps for just a fraction longer than normal, your mind entirely elsewhere as warm water cascaded over the both of you, his calloused hands running up the space of your back and hugging you impossibly closer to him.
pulling back centimeters from his lips, a rosy blush adorned his cheeks, "thanks for helpin' me sweetheart," he said in a low tone, "gotta do your hair next." already moving you to be under the shower head as you nestled into his chest, ready to be pampered with the same amount of care and tenderness.
