He finally whips around to look at her when he hears the water slosh, indicating to him that she's getting out.
"Wait!"
Don't look at the butt. Don't look at the butt. Okay, he looks a little bit, but at least he doesn't stare.
"Ya don't gotta get dressed," he offers. He's beet red, with a lopsided, awkward grin with his hands held up in a placating gesture. "Can't be the only one skinny dippin' in the waterin' hole. That's messed."
The truth is that he can't stand the thought of being the reason that she has to get out and get dressed in a bathing suit when he's still sitting here naked. Because he can't control himself. That's his responsibility, not hers.
"Just..."
He places a hand on his cheek and tilts his head to the side. He's on fire, and it's not just his hair.
"...only naked bodies I've seen are corpses, so..."
Not that this is news to her at this point. His shoulders pitch upwards in a shrug, and his brows steeple together in an apologetic smile. Don't look at the butt.

"You'll...forgive me if I screw up...yeah?"
