"I can't find my contacts!" I heard a yelp from the room. Okay, meltdown number three. This is going to be the third meltdown he had today. First was about a messed up breakfast order, second was about his throat problem and now third is about contacts. Why does he need contacts now, we don't even have a show today, we aren't going out, we are just gonna be sitting here. Sometimes I wonder if someone got him pregnant!

Looking at my reflection in the bathroom mirror I took in a few deep breaths. I was the 'Mommy'. So now I have to go and find him a solution.

"Did you check everywhere?" I sighed as I came out of the bathroom. All the contents in both mine and his bags were scattered across the floor. Sure I was hiding his contacts with my clothes. It was annoying, cos' when he will finally find his stupid contacts I will be the one left to do the packing again. Because he is 'too busy'.

"Of course I checked everywhere. Did you take it?" He turned towards

"What will I do with your contacts Axl?" I facepalmed

"How will I know? Maybe you are trying to mess with me! Like you always do!" He scowled. I don't know if I should laugh and take that as a joke or wonder about how absurd his imagination skills were. It seemed like with every passing day my patience was thinning. For a day or two you can put up with this shit but after a while, it gets tiring when you don't even love the person.

It felt like with every passing day he was proving to me he wasn't the William I wanted. He was someone else.

"Don't you think you are getting a little too much of a dick today?" I asked with a plain face.

"You think I am being hormonal!" He screeched. Of course, he will do that and later complain about his voice. "Of course you believe like the rest of them I am sick in the head! 'What happened to Axl? Oh he is just mentally ill.'" He mocked in a shrill voice to imitate me.

Fuck you. I smiled at him.

Rolling his eyes he went back to searching and I walked out the door without him seeing. I will be back in an hour after taking a walk in the hotel garden. By then he is hopefully normal.

Walking towards the elevator I pressed the button as it stopped on the floor above mine before it started coming down again. I like it when hotels have those glass elevators it's so fun to look outside but this one was just a metal box. With a weird music being played the elevator door opened.

Looking ahead I saw Nikki leaning against the mirror at the back of the elevator. Okay, awkward.

"Hey," I said as I walked in, leaning forward to press the ground floor, except it was already pressed. Oh, even he is going to the ground floor.

"Hey, ground floor?" He asked as I nodded.

"Where to?" I asked him

"The gift shop, I saw it last night it looked so cool but they were going to close then. So I was..." He halted and both of our attention turned towards the elevator door as we heard a Thud!

Confused we looked at each other and the floor display, which completely went blank as the lights flickered a bit before turning off fully.

"HELLOO!!!"

"ANYBODY THERE?!?"

"HELPP!!"

"FUCK!!!

"WE ARE STUCK"

We continued to call out as we slammed our fists against the metal door in panic mode. Except there was no one to give us a reply.

"The bell!! Press the bell!" I said trying to not panic by thinking that we will be let out soon.
