Chapter 6

I look at the outside world as if it's the first time I've seen daylight. I look up to see the same reaction on Tristan's face

Staring at us from the outside world was a big bearded, middle-aged man 6 feet tall, looking extremely worried.

"Are you two alright?! The entire floor lost power due to some technical difficulties. I heard the elevator got stuck?"

We both nodded.

"I am so sorry it took so long to fix! Nothing terrible happened in there right?" The man's forehead crinkled in concern.

I hesitated to tell him the truth, that I nearly died in there.

"It was just really hot in there. Besides that, we're fine. Just make sure it never happens again." I looked at Tristan for confirmation. He just nodded.

"I'm really sorry about that. Perhaps I could treat you and your boyfriend to some cold drinks or something?" he smiled relieved.

Boyfriend?!

"No! No, it's alright... Thanks."

"Are you sure?"

"Yeah, thanks."

"I'm glad nothing happened, we'll take extra precautions next time. Thank you!" The man walked away.

"That was crazy!" I exclaim.

"I know right! He thought you were my girlfriend! As if!" He chuckled mockingly.

"I was talking about spending an hour in an elevator... But hey, back at you." I narrow my eyes, scrunching my face up.

"Well, I better get back to flipping those burger patties..." I said to myself regretfully.

Virtual facepalm.

"Bye." I waved quickly. I spun around and started walking away.

"Wait!" I stopped dead in my tracks.

"What?" I questioned as I turned towards him.

"Did you forget freckles? We were STUCK in an elevator for an HOUR... I'm hungry. Hungry for some McDonalds" he started smirking.

I sigh.

This was going to be one LONG afternoon.

 "Is there anything else I can get you, sir?" I said through gritted teeth and a whole lot of annoyance.

"A Diet Coke, please." He smiled annoyingly.

What's the point of a Diet Coke when you've already had 3 burgers and 2 large fries?!

"Sure... ANYTHING else?"

"Nope, that will do... For now."

How did this kid still have abs after eating so much?!

If I'd eaten that much, I'd be Riley the Fatty again.
