She could feel her pulse through her finger tips and wondered if he felt the same way. Did his heart stop working when they were this close? Did he feel the sparks between their finger tips? Does he want to know...

CHAPTER 14: A FANTASTIC DELUSION
"Okay, so we're actually doing this?" Nadine exhaled anxiously, smoothing out the short dress she had on. Vanya gave the girl an encouraging smile. She stopped a few steps outside of an elevator, playing with the stone in her pocket delicately.
Diego leapt forward from in front of them and grabbed the doors of the elevator, pulling them open. "Wait up." He spoke to Five, who was already stood inside.
"Hold it!" Allison hopped quickly in as well, Klaus following her closely behind with a soft "hey, everyone."
Vanya walked into the elevator slowly, Luther pulling in behind her making them all shuffle over slightly. Five looked around with a raised eyebrow, noting that someone was missing. Footsteps made him look towards the door as Nadine walked inside. His shoulders relaxed slightly and the corner of his mouth tilted upwards. The girl gave him a small, stressful smile in return. He nodded at her as she took the spot beside him against the wall, their shoulders pressed against each other.
He stuffed his hands in his pockets with a grin. Nadine's eyes flickered over the side of his face, watching his dimples appear on his cheeks. "Good. We're all here." He stated as the elevator bell dang, signaling that the doors were about to close. Nadine breathed out an uncomfortable breath as she rubbed her bottom lip with her thumb. "Ugh, I hate elevators."
Luther grunted, catching Nadine's attention. The girl had good senses, she liked to give the coven and her lineage props for that, but in this moment she wished she didn't. "Oh, gross." She turned her head into Five's shoulder with a hand to her nose. The boy looked down at her with an eyebrow raised as Allison sniffed the air and glanced at Luther. "Oh..." the woman put a hand over her face to try to block out the smell.
The group finally all smelled what they had, turning their heads away from the tallest man who stared at the door guiltily.
"Luther!" Klaus waved his hand in front of his face in disgust. Five turned his face and stuck his nose against the side of Nadine's head, smelling her rose scented conditioner instead. He exhaled in relief, shuffling closer to the girl. "Sorry, I'm nervous." Luther stated.
Diego tilted his head downwards and smirked, his shoulders shaking as he chuckled under his breath.
When the doors finally opened, Five wrapped an arm around her shoulders and pulled her out of the elevator quickly. "Nasty! I'm choking." The boy yelled as Nadine giggled. The siblings all followed closely behind, stumbling out of the elevator and away from Luther's nasty flatulence.
