The air in the corridor between the sauna and the bath probably couldn't be classed as fresh by any stretch, but it feels that way once Aerith and Balthier are past the doorway of the sauna. Finding it easier to breathe now that she's not being fondled and urged on beyond what's fun and comfortable when Balthier pulls her close Aerith goes willingly, happy to be near him because she wants to, rather than because she was shoved that way.

Rocking back on her heels, she leans on the wall behind her as her arm slips around his shoulders and pulls him closer to her, ignoring the stretch of time that kiss lingers for, too centered on enjoying it. Settling against him comfortably she takes a slow breath before nodding. "Are you?" Pitching forward slightly Aerith rises onto her toes, nuzzling his cheek with hers before kissing his jawbone.

"Come on," Aerith catches his hand once more as she steps out of the embrace. "Now I really need a bath." Ignoring the way that comment makes her instantly wish they were back at her house and thus assured they would be alone for a while, she squeezes his hand gently before taking them the rest of the way back to the giant tub.
