Part 1

There hasn’t been much to look forward to lately.  I recently lost my job and ended a 10 year relationship with someone I thought I would spend the rest of my life with.  Let’s just say luck hasn’t been on my side.  Every year I go to a race on Memorial Day and this year is no exception.  I travel to Connecticut from New Jersey and I am looking forward to clearing my head.  My friends begged me not to go alone but its what I need at this point in my life. 

The reason I go to these races is because I get to see my celebrity crush, Patrick Dempsey.  He co-owns the race team I support.  This will the first year I will be going to see him as a single woman…not like it matters, he’s married.  A girl is allowed to have her fantasies, especially when her reality has been so awful.

I am on my way to the elevator to head out to the race track.  I stick my earbuds into my ears as I wait for the elevator to get to my floor.  My iPod has been my best friend lately, the music acting as a mind eraser as I let the words to the music take me to a happier place.  Finally the doors open and I step in.  I keep my head down as I lean against the back of the elevator.  The doors close and we only move a couple seconds when the lights flicker and the elevator jolts hard, we are no longer moving. 

“Just perfect,” I mumble to myself as I begin to push the buttons as if that would do anything.

“I think we are stuck in here”. A voice says from the other corner if the elevator.  I look up because the British accent caught me off guard.  Hey I’ve seen this guy before.  I think they were on SNL.  I guess he notices me staring at him funny and he breaks the awkward silence “I’m Harry,” he says as he sticks out his hand.  I shake his extended hand but don’t say a thing.
