Roman's P.O.V:
I am running down the street in a hurry. I am wearing black skinny jeans, a red T-shirt with white around the color and the sleeves, and my red converses. My light brown hair is styled but slightly messy from running and I'm carrying my brown satchel. I finally reach the building and I'm almost late for my job interview when I get to the elevator.
I press the button for my floor when a guy wearing a black sweater, black skinny jeans, a black choker, a black studded bracelet, a nose piercing, two lip piercings, a cartilage piercing, purple converse, and black gauges in his ears. His hair is dyed purple and his eyes are grey.
"H-Hold the elevator please!" I hold it open right before it closes and he slips inside.
"T-Thanks..." He pants out of breath.
"No problem. What floor?"
"Oh uh floor 4."
"I'm going there as well." I push the button and stare at him. Could he really be going to a job interview?
"So. What brings you here?"
"Oh I'm doing an interview for a job."
"Oh that's what I'm here for-" The elevator makes suddenly shakes harshly and makes a clunking noise. We aren't moving anymore and I look at the guy. He presses the emergency button.
"Uhhh hello?" No one answers so he hits the button again.
"Hello?" There's no answer and he starts banging on the door.
"H-Help we're stuck!"
I start hitting the walls as we both grow more panicked.
"HELP US WE'RE TRAPPED!" I bang on the walls as he sinks down and rests his back against the door of the elevator.
"This is pointless...I'm going to die in an elevator."
"Hey we aren't going to die."
"Oh yeah? Well do you have food or water?"
"I have 2 water bottles and some granola bars. So uhh yeah."
"I'm stuck in an elevator with a Disney fucking prince!"
"Hey cool it Emo nightmare! We don't know how long we'll be in here, so we might as well not fight."
"Okay whatever...."
We sit for an hour and don't speak to each other. He holds his knees
"So...I never asked your name."
"Virgil. Virgil Harrison."
"I'm Roman Princeton."
"Great." He mumbles and buries his face in his knees. I kneel by him and pull out a granola bar.
"Hungry?" Virgil lifts his head
"What?"
"Are you hungry?"
"Yeah.."
I hand him a chocolate chip granola bar and he unwraps it.
"T-Thanks."
"No problem." We both eat in silence.
"Hey Roman?"
"Yes?"
"I'm sorry for being a dick at first. I just....I really needed this job.
"It's...okay. You didn't hurt me."
"I know but I....need this job because I'm trying to move away from my boyfriend."
That peaks my interest.
"Why do you need to move away from him?"
"He's...abusive."
"He...beats you?"
"Y-Yeah...and so I have to get money to move."
"That's....awful..."
"I'm used to it."
"No...why would he hit you?"
"It's my fault. I do bad things."
"Like?"
"I burned his dinner the other night. I wore the wrong shade of green the other day. I accidentally knocked over a vase. Things like that."
"Virgil..." I reach out and touch his arm. He flinches.
"I just need this money to leave. But this fucking elevator is stuck." Tears form in his eyes.
"I'm never going to be able to leave t-that bastard..."
"Come with me. I know you don't know me well and you probably don't trust me but I can give you a life no one else has."
"W-What?"
"Come with me."
"No I couldn't.....He'd find me."
"You can't live with him if he's beating you."
"I'm used to it." Suddenly the elevator starts moving again and it stops at the 4th floor.
Virgil turns to me
"Well this is goodbye Princey."
"I guess...do you want my number?"
"I would love to have your number, but I'm going to be gone by the time you text or call me." He smiles sadly and walks off, as I stare at him and think of what we could've been.
