Elisabeth

Chapter 24

Chapter 24

'Here it is.' The chauffeur said. Will got out of the car and took Elisa's hand. 

'Thanks Carter!' Will closed the door and walked towards the large mansion.

'I thought you lived in the U.S.A?' Elisa said, following him inside.

'My dad also has a house in the United Kingdom, because he is planning on expanding here.' Will pulled her with him up the stairs.

'Where are we going?' Elisa asked, not suer why they had to go upstairs.

'I figured you might want to change into something warmer.' Will said, knocking on one of many doors in the large house. The walls were all white, the floor was covered with inkblue carpet. There were large windows everywhere, looking over the garden. Two different shades of blue see-through drapes were  hanging next to the windows. 

The door was opened by a young woman, about the same age as Elisa and Will. She was pretty, had the same blonde hair and dark eyes as Will. 

'Hey sis, mind if Elisa here borrows something from you?' Elisa blushed, suddenly not sure if his sister was okay with that. Was it is his twin sister? Or his older sister? What were their names again? Wasn't it Caroline? The girl interrupted her thoughts.

'Will! Why didn't you tell me you were home? And then you think you can just knock on my door and act like nothing happened? We were worried Will! We were worried like hell. What happened to the "Hey Michelle I'm home and I'm very sorry that I disappeared like that"?' the girl, who called herself Michelle, looked furious. She was nearly crying and she pulled Will and Elisa inside.

'Hey Michelle I'm home and I'm very sorry that I disappeared like that.' Will said, telling her what she wanted to hear. 'Now would you mind giving Elisa here something better to wear than my button-downshirt that hasn't been washed in two months?' Michelle looked guilty. 

'i'm sorry, I'll take a look with her. Why don't you go away and change as well.' She suggested, pushing him towards the door.  He still wasn't wearing a shirt and his ripped trousers were dirty. He wasn't wearing any shoes, because he had lost them somewhere in the ocean. His socks were still on the island, as they only got sandy and soaked.

Michelle closed the door behind Will's back and pulled Elisa with her.

'So, what do you like? Jeans? Sweaters? Dresses?'  Michelle asked. Elisa liked her, she could sense that Michelle was curious why she had no clothes, but she didn't ask. And Elisa was glad she didn't. 

'I ehm... I don't know?' Elisa answered, feeling a bit helpless. Michelle looked up and down, taking Elisa in.

'You can take a bath first, if you want?' Michelle asked. She didn't say it in a mean way, or a disgusted way. She looked worried. Elisa bit her lip. What should she say? 'Here, come with me.' Michelle pulled Elisa with her and opened a door to a large bathroom. She took a towel, a few bottles and let the water flow into the tub. She put the towel on the floor next to the bath and put the bottles on the edge. 'Normal soap, shampoo, conditioner.' She said, pointing at the different bottles. 'Will you manage?' She asked friendly. Elisa nodded.

'I'll be alright.'

'Okay, I'll leave you alone then. Just say it if you need anything, and I'll bring you some clothes in a few minutes.' She closed te tap, opened the door and got out of the bathroom. Elisa stripped and got in. It was so heavenly warm and clean, she had missed the feeling of a warm bath. 

'Where is Elisa?' Will asked when he walked in Michelle's room.

'She's taking a bath. So where have you been? And where did you pick up such an innocent, shy girl?' Michelle asked, walking over to Will. 'Don't you dare tell me you seduced her just so you could have the satisfaction of sleeping with her.' She looked a bit angry.
