Time Love

Chapter 3: ~ The Batcave ~

The group went downstairs, as they all waited for their tour guide's appearance at the moment.

"Yo Drake! Where have you been? It was hours ago." (Just an expression to denote Drake is late but not actual time) Mike protested as he saw Drake walking down the stairs.

Drake smiled as he walked down the stairs, "Sorry about that. I just had to confirm the preparations I made." he explained.

"Preparations to what?" Mike asked.

"You'll see," Drake replied. "Let's Go!" Drake went to the left side while the others went to the opposite side. "Wait! Where are you going?" Drake wondered as he halted, watching the group going the other way.

"To the pool. As you've said earlier." Mike replied, looking at Drake as they all stopped walking.

"No! I mean, the ladies can't swim in their current outfit, right?" Drake implied.

Lez stepped forward towards Drake, "So, where are we going then?" she clarified.

"Come, follow me. You'll see." Drake answered as he moved towards the left hallway. He stopped in the corner, looking at the stairs going down. "Please, downstairs to the basement." He said, pointing at the stairs as the group moved downstairs, leaving Drake and Lez behind as they started to have a conversation.

"You're full of mystery and surprises, Mr. Scott." Lez elaborated as they both took steps down the stairs alongside Drake.

"You too, Ms. Lezlie Anderson," Drake emphasized her full name as Lez looked at him, astonished.

"How'd you...." Lez wondered, stopped in the middle of the stairs.

"I have my ways." Drake smiled, looking up, back at Lez, raising his hand towards the lady to assist her down the stairs.

"Ey Drake! Where to?" Dave asked, looking back at Drake as they arrived on a corner leading them on two pathways.

Drake held Lez's hand while they both walked down the stairs. Looking at Dave, he answered. "Those two doors you see would be the Panic Room followed by the Wine Cellar. Just follow the path on your left, and you'll see adjacent doors. The right door will be the laundry, and to your left would be the storage room."

"Are we going to the Laundry Room?" Jay clarified before he took a step.

"Are they going to wear something from the Laundry Room?" Mike added as they all continued to walk along the left path.

With sour faces, "Are we?" the girls asked altogether except Lez, who just looked down on the floor and stopped herself from bursting into laughter.

"Yes! You are going to wear a maid's uniform." Drake replied seriously. No trace of foolishness is visible from his face. Not even a smirk, a laugh, nor a smile they saw from him. Just a plain and straight face as they all proceed to the laundry room.

Opening the door to the laundry room, as they all went inside, Drake turned to face his friends when he noticed Lez at the back, controlling herself from cackling as he picked an uncleansed maid's uniform. He stopped himself from bursting into laughter and continued pretending.

"Well, there's a lot to choose from," Drake added with an innocent face.

Becca stepped forward and picked one. "Are you kidding me?!?" as she could not believe she'd be doing this.

The boys started to laugh, teasing the girls while Lez could not hold her laughter anymore and started cackling, removing herself from the room, as Drake began to laugh.
