As of this moment, he couldn't say for sure how long they would remain in the mansion. He knew that Micha wasn't the biggest fan, and he did promise him that it wouldn't be forever. One day, maybe weeks or months from now, they would have a place of their own. Something big enough that Micha could work from home and have all his creative outlets. Meanwhile, Samuel would want to have a space to play games and read, and just unwind after work. Not everything he owned would be coming with them, of course, it wasn't as though he would never see the mansion again. But enough to make it his home too. Samuel hoped like hell that such a day might come. He hated all this uncertainty and driving himself insane. He was going to have to do better, he was trying, but there was still more that he could do. To be the man that Micha deserved.
Stepping away from the warmth, Samuel began to wash, starting with his hair. He took his time washing his hair and removing all the dirt and grime. When he was finished, he stepped back underneath to rise, closing his eyes as the soapy suds rained down his face. He pushed back his hair, making sure all the shampoo was gone. Samuel stayed in the shower another fifteen minutes. He took his time washing his face and body and rinsing thoroughly. Twisting the knobs, Samuel emerged feeling a little more alert and a lot cleaner than before. Steam swirled around him as he stepped towards the counter to pick up his towel. He wiped the water from his face and upper body before wrapping it around his waist.
Pushing away from the counter, he came back into the darkened bedroom. As promised, Micha was still there, in his bed. He moved closer towards him and turned on the lamp on the night stand. Shadows retreated as the warm glow filled the space around them. Stepping away from the table, he then moved towards the closet to pick something out. It was the last night of events, he needed to look good, something smart. Maybe a little classic, or intimating wait, no, maybe not that. He was the boss, but not that kind of boss. He shifted through the various shirts hanging before him. Plucking out two, he returned to the bedroom while holding them up. "Pick one. Black or light blue?" he asked.

Samuel didn't mind having any more discussions about their relationship. If today was an example of anything, it was that they both had a lot to say that probably should have been said a long time ago. But he agreed that it would be best to have them later rather than now. He couldn't promise that Micha would have his full attention. Not while he was already getting his head ready for work and forming a checklist of things he needed. Coming back into the bedroom, Samuel found Micha playing on his phone. He was curious to know what he was doing, but knew it was none of his business so he didn't ask. Coming further into the room, he turned on the lamp and could feel the males' eyes on him. Sure enough he glanced over to see Micha staring.
Smirking, Samuel continued towards the closet to find something to wear. He hadn't a clue what sort of statement he should make, if any at all. It would be the last event he had for awhile, so maybe something celebratory. Like a thank you to the patrons and his employees for putting up with all this. Or was that too much? He rifled through his shirts a few times before bringing out two to Micha, and asking him to decide on one. Holding the two garments, he watched as the male looked them over before deciding. "Black it is." he said, setting it down at the end of the bed.
Returning to the closet, he put the blue back on the rack then turn his attention to the pieces. If he was going to wear a black shirt, then clearly he needed black slack. Or would an accent color be better? Black and red?...Too emo. Black and blue? Wasn't that an album? With the slacks in his hand, Samuel came back to the closet door. "What do you think of all black?" he asked, leaning against the doorframe.

He could hardly blame him for staring. Were their roles reversed, Samuel knew for a fact that he would be staring as well. With his shirt color decided, he returned to the closet to gather the rest of his attire. He couldn't help thinking about what would look best and if he add any sort of color. Unfortunately for him, his brain decided on a few creative internal monologues that were not exactly helpful. He rifled through his clothes a few times and still was unable to decide. With a pair of slacks in hand Samuel came back to question Micha again. He watched as Micha smiled and confirmed an all black look. He then followed up with a question of his own. "I might have a tie to go with it." he said.
Going back into the closet a third time, Samuel picked out a blazer and vest that matched the pants on his arm well enough. If there was any fading on any of the other black garments, it wasn't too noticeable. Taking the three items, Samuel returned to his bed once more to place them with the shirt on the bed. If Micha had any additional input to his attire, he was all ears and would welcome the feedback. After setting them down, Samuel made one more trip to the closet, he pulled back a drawer filled with ties of all colors and designs. Samuel didn't have too many black ties, but there were some options. He looked them over, thinking about how they might look against the rest of the outfit. After a minute or so, he picked up a plain black silk tie and then another with a black rose pattern, once again wanting Micha's input. Exiting the closet a final time, he came back to get dressed.

The man could tease him all he liked, he didn’t care. Being the last event he wanted to look nice, not that he didn’t most days. With Micha’s help, Samuel brought out his clothes and left them on the bed. He took note of the way he had put away his phone and now sat cross legged and examining the pieces he chose. He went back to his closet once more to fetch a couple of ties for Micha’s good opinion. Coming back into the room, Samuel set those on the bed as well.
Removing the towel from his waist, Samuel finished drying off. Most of the water had already started to evaporate, but he took care to wipe wherever was needed. When he was finished, he walked to the dresser and pulled out a pair of boxers, slipping his legs through the holes one at a time. He also pulled a pair of fresh socks from another drawer before returning to the bed. He continued to dress, taking his time while buttoning his shirt. ”Did you decide on a tie?” He asked, glancing towards Micha.

Samuel wasn't blind to the males staring as he dried himself off. He was both flattered and amused by it. It wasn't as though it was the first time or even the second that Micha had seen him naked today. Still, he could feel his eyes upon him even after he'd put on underwear. Coming back to the bed, he inquired about the ties, wondering if he ought to even wear one at all. Pulling on his shirt, he glanced towards Micha, and saw him smile as he spoke. Samuel smirked back at him, knowing he hadn't given the ties so much as a glance. As Micha turned his attention to them, Samuel finished buttoning his shirt. He then flipped the collar up, as Micha handed him the one with the rose pattern. "Thank you." he said, taking it from him.
Slipping the strip of silk around his neck, he let it hang a moment. Instead, Samuel shifted his attention to the pants on the bed, and took them from the clothes hanger. Undoing the button and zipper, he bent over to push his legs through, and pulled them up to his hips. He stood there a moment stuffing in the hem before closing them. Already the look was coming together, the shirt was neither too tight nor too baggy, and the pants were nicely tailored to his form. Turning his attention back to his tie, his hands moved with practiced ease. Looking down at himself, he couldn't help feeling like he was still missing something. "What do you think?" he asked again.

The man was allowed to stare all he liked, Samuel didn't mind. He continued to dress silently, making sure that everything was in place. After stuffing his shirt into his pants and knotting his tie, he couldn't help thinking that something was still missing. Samuel wasn't too big on accessories. He wasn't one to wear an obnoxiously large watch, a statement belt buckle, or flashy brand name cufflinks. But he felt he did need something, something a little more to make the look complete. Sliding the knot up, he asked Micha once more for his valuable input. He watched the man look him up and down before glancing towards his waist. "Ah, yes. Thank you." he replied.
Stepping away from the bed once more, Samuel went back to the same area of the closet he got his tie. He pulled forth a drawer just below the other one. His belt collection was far simpler and probably lacking. He never saw the need for a bunch of belts, as they all started to look the same after awhile. Pulling out a black leather belt, he pushed the drawer back in, and exited the closet again. Walking back to the bed, he unrolled the leather strip and slipped it into the loops. He made quick work of getting the rest around his waist then fastening it into place. "There, better?" he asked.

When it came to his wardrobe, Samuel was never one to be flashy. He preferred comfort over style and brand names. He was glad that he didn't need to be such things in for Micha. It made this little dress up game easier. Taking the males' suggestion, Samuel made his way back into the closet for a simple matching belt. He soon came out and looped it around his waist. By the time he reached his bed, he was securing it in place. Looking towards Micha, he asked again for his approval. Samuel watched the man smile and confirm it. He smiled back then reached for the remaining items. He made short work of throwing on the vest and blazer.
Moving towards the bathroom, Samuel looked himself over. His first thought was that he should be asking someone to repay a debt. He smiled at his own joke and took care of a few last minute details. A bit of cologne, a comb through the hair, brush the teeth, and he was ready to face the day. Samuel emerged from the bathroom once more, turning out the lights behind him, and took a seat at the end of the bed to pull his socks on. "Are you coming with me when I leave?" he asked.
