Lucy's eyes were conquered with worries. "Don't tell me we just got stuck in this elevator! Together?" she's agitated, rubbing her temple.
They hurriedly and continuously knocked on the elevator door as they started screaming for help hoping for anyone to hear. But not even one sign of people outside so Dale starts using his bare hands.
While Dale is consuming all his strength, trying hard to open the elevator. Lucy can't help but steal a glance from time to time at the tiny muscles on his so white arms.
After a while…
"Stop it, Dale! Stop draining all your energy in there, I don't think it will open that way anyway!" Lucy sadly sat on the floor, her face showing the looks when hope had started running out.
Dale picked up the bathrobe and covered Lucy's body then sat beside her. "If we stay here any longer, we won't die of suffocation but will be in Hypothermia! So just cover yourself, I'm fine anyway," he said, even though he looks so cold now and Lucy can see it.
"We need to try everything for us to not get cold. Hurry Dale, take off your clothes!" Lucy commanded. Instantly broadened Dale's tiny eyes then he looked around the elevator.
"But Ms. Lucy, what if someone saw us here?"
"Even the Intercom is not working so how can you expect a CCTV and hidden cameras at that, here? And have you forgotten that it's your fault why I was cold and wet now! Another thing, I'm older than you so at this time you should listen and follow whatever I told you! So hurry, take off your clothes!" Lucy became hot-tempered because of frustrations that Dale feared her.
This Poor Young Man can't do anything but follow this Hot Temper Lady!
"Okay, I'll do as you say! Wear this robe, you should undress too." Passing the robe to Lucy. "Or at least take off your swimsuit and shorts and I'll squeeze it too."
"I'm just alright, just be concerned about yourself!" Lucy uttered like a wet kitten.
"Why? Afraid that someone will peep on you? But you just said not to worry because right now we're like in an isolated place, no Intercom, no CCTV and not even hidden cameras!" he says straight at Lucy's face. He looks so serious but he speaks in a harsh manner that pisses Lucy even more.
"FINE! Turn around, close your eyes and make sure to never look! Because if you do then you'll go out in this elevator without those eyes of yours!" she threatens him frustratedly as she starts undressing.
After taking off her shorts and before beginning taking off everything, she peeped at Dale making sure that he was not looking. She instantly shivered to see him already topless! He was facing backward so she only saw his masculine back.
OH MY GOD! Are minors allowed to go to gyms? She drank hard, staring at Dale's back.
"Are you done, Ms. Lucy?"
"Ah-ah… I'm not done yet, just face the wall!" she panicked, her skin feverish.
After Dale has finished squeezing their clothes, then a moment later Lucy is done putting her clothes back. They sat on the floor together again and shared the bathrobe. Right now they're like strangers who just need each other's warmth.
Suddenly Lucy was reminded that Dale's cell phone still has some battery life left. So she hurriedly asked for it but when she couldn't wait, she decided to take it herself from Dale's pocket. In a hurry, she didn't realize that her body was already pressing him.
Dale's eyes accidentally went to the curve of Lucy's breast, he had goosebumps! This young man couldn't comprehend the sensations he was feeling now, sensations that made his heart beat faster and seemed to awaken his hidden desires! He tried suppressing his feelings so he turned away from her.
"What are we going to do? All the guys out there don't answer their phones! Why didn't you have Charlie's number, huh? If we call her, she will surely answer after seeing your name! Since she's so head over heels on you anyway!" she slapped herself, realizing what she had said.
"I-I mean, you should have her number since she's not just your schoolmate but also your friend, right?"
"Haven't I told you before to stop treating me like a kid? Do you think I wouldn't know Charlie's feelings for me? I didn't ask for her number because I don't want her to have the wrong idea!" he speaks while facing the elevator wall.
"And Ms. Lucy, can you please lessen your irritations because I'm starting to fear you, eh. I know you're older than me but I'm not a kid anymore. You can talk to me straightforward then I'll make sure to listen. After all, I may be stubborn but I'm a good listener..."
Dale's words softened Lucy's heart and calmed her, "Alright, I admit, I go overboard. I'm sorry Dale, and thank you… for always acting like an adult whenever I forgot to act like one." She was embarrassed once again in front of this young man.
"And please don't tell Charlie that I accidentally exposed her, alright?" She smiled looking at Dale's back.
"Uhm… Ms. Lucy don't you feel, it's getting hot here?" Dale was sweating because of the unexplainable heat that he was feeling.
Lucy let go of the cell phone for a moment and then her palm felt the elevator's floor as a response to Dale. "Earlier Hypothermia was our problem and now what? That this elevator might catch fire?" You can see the terror in Lucy's expressions but to her surprise, she didn't feel any heat coming from the elevator. So she turned to Dale and was alarmed seeing him pale, sweaty and his lips were so red.
Lucy felt confused, she rashly used her palm to wipe Dale's sweats. "Why? Are you not feeling well, Dale?" while holding his face, concern filled her.
