What If...

-Chapter 2- Elevator

*A/N* I forgot to mention this in the last chapter, but it's better to read this with a black background and Serif font ♡

Bartholomue was working at his desk, when, a short girl with a blank expression came up to him. "Bartholomue Sexibomba." He looked up at her. "Come with me, please." She said, walking away.

He quickly got up, and followed her. "So uh, what's your name?" Bartholomue asked her. "My name doesn't matter." She answered. The girl led them to the foggy glass door, and opened it. She went in and he, followed her.

"Nat is waiting, for you" She said. "Oh, alright then." Bartholomue said, walking towards a desk.

"Ah, Bartholomue Sexibomba. I've been expecting you" Nat said as he approached the desk. "Uh, Hello." He said awkwardly "I'm your room leader, Nat." She said smiling. "Yeah, I'm quite aware." He said laughing awkwardly.

"Yeah, alright. I have a list of rules that, you must follow." Nat said, handing him a stack of paper. Bartholomue a little 'woah', as he looked at the stack of papers in his hands. "Have a good day, Bartholomue." Nat said waving him off.

Once he left, he went back to his desk. He sat down, and started reading the stack. 'Rule 1. You must only come to my office, if you have a complaint, or requested.'  He read, in his mind.

*~Time skip~*

He was on the 3rd page, when, Alannah came over to his desk. "Bartholomue, It's closing time." She said softly. "It is?" He asked, Alannah nodded simply in reply. Bartholomue put the papers down and got up. "You didn't have to wait for me." He said awkwardly, rubbing his neck. "Oh it's fine, I just knew you'd like to walk out with someone." She replied. smiling brightly at him. They walked over to the elevator, and pressed the button for it. After about, thrity second the elevators doors opened, allowing them to step in.

They were about 5 floors from the ground floor, when the elevator stopped. The doors didn't open, so they weren't waiting on someone to get in with them. The only other option was, they were stuck. Alannah looked around, looking like she waiting on the doors to open. When, suddenly, the lights went out. "No, this can't be happening, not right now." Alannah said rushing over to the buttons, pressing the ground floor button over and over again. "I think we're stuck." Bartholomue said quietly. "Oh god. I'm so sorry, this wasn't meant to happen, espicially on your first day here." Alannah said, panicking now hitting the emergency button.

"It's ok, we'll just wait until someone finds us." Bartholomue said, hoping to calm her. Alannah inhaled and exhaled a few times, before speaking again. "So, what would you like to do while we wait?" She asked. "How about, we just get to know eachother?" He suggested. "That sounds nice." Alannah said, calming down a bit more.

They sat on the floor, talking, they got to know eachother more. "So, you like anyone?" Alannah asked, wiggling her eyebrows, in a joking manner. Bartholomue silently laughed before answering. "Yeah, I guess I like someone at the moment." Alannah smiled at his words, leaning in closer. "Who is it?" She asked. "Oh, you wouldn't know them." Bartholomue replied. "What about you, you like anyone?". "Yeah, y'know our room leader, Nat. I think I like her." Alannah said smiling at him.

Bartholomue's face fell a little, 'Out of everyone, why Nat?' he thought to himself. "That's great, I hope you guys get together." He said, faking a smile. "Thanks, but I don't think she likes me back." Alannah said, backing away from him. Before Bartholomue could answer, the elevator started moving again.

"Finally!" Alannah said hapilly. jumping up from the ground. Bartholomue slowly got up from the ground as the doors finally opened.

"I'll see you tommorow!" Alannah said, waving bye to him. "See you tommorow." He said smiling and waving until she wasn't looking at him anymore. He had a lot of thoughts running through his mind, while walking home. 

When he got home, he took a long hot shower and went to bed. With only one thought on his mind, 'Why Nat?'
