" This is very embarrassing, and it's all your fault!" Liliana whispered as they moved into the elevator.
" I don't think so. On the contrary, this feels romantic; don't you feel the warmth of my body?" Samuel teased.
"No!" She gave him an angry stare.
That's when the elevator door opened, and a few people walked in, one couple and two men wearing suits. They looked at Samuel and Liliana for a second before entering the elevator.
" Hello... Is everything okay?" one of the men asked.
" Hi, yes, everything is fine," Samuel replied. They couldn't make out Samuel's facial expression through the mask, but he was enjoying and smiling, giving sneak stares to Liliana, who was burying her face in his clothes.
" The public elevator was swamped, so we decided to use this one; I hope you don't mind." Another man said as everyone entered the elevator. The couple only nodded slightly without saying anything.
" No problem." Samuel made some space for them as the elevator started descending.
" Are they adorable? Will you do the same for me?" The girl whispered in her boyfriend's ears.
" Me? How could I? Did you look at that guy's arms?" The boyfriend replied.
" I am not telling you to do it now.. at least you can pretend to care..." She didn't like his answer.
" I care about you a lot! I just don't think it's fair when you compare my body to him."
" When did I do that?!" They began to argue silently, unaware that, due to the small space, everyone could hear them.
After several awkward pauses and embarrassed stare exchanges, they soon reached the lobby. Thankfully no one else got into the elevator, but Samuel could see why they decided to hijack their personal elevator, evidenced by an influx of people waiting in the lobby.
" Good luck." The man who spoke to them first said and left.
" Thank you."
" Sir...." the manager was already waiting outside the elevator for them. He looked horrified when he saw several other people in the elevator because, per company policy, it was forbidden for others to access the private elevators.
But when he finally saw Samuel, He stared at his face for a few seconds, hesitating to say something.
" Yes?"
" I am truly sorry that you had to share your elevator! I don't know how it happened, but I hope you forgive us!" He bowed down first and apologized for it.
" It's fine. I don't mind it, ouch!" Liliana pinched him, he might not mind, but she did!
" Is something wrong, sir?" The manager asked.
" Nothing. Is everything ready?"
" Yes, we have your car at the back entrance."
" Good, lead us to it then." They began to walk toward the employee access door.
" You know, sir, I still think it would be best if you let us call for an ambulance. I didn't know it was this serious." The manager suggested again, looking at the pair.
Samuel was a princess carrying Liliana, who was entirely covered with clothes from top to bottom. It was hard to make out anything other than her dark brown hair falling from the side of her hooded face.
" It's alright. It's only a sprained ankle which is hardly a condition to call over an ambulance." Samuel walked behind as people stared at them, but he was also covered in clothes and his standard sunglass and cap, making it harder for them to make his identity.
" I still can't believe that young miss slipped in the shower. We installed grade waterproof adhesive all over our shower to prevent such an incident." The manager was puzzled.
When he first got the call, he didn't know what to do, which got worse when he checked the name on the card that Samuel provided. He had just been informed about what happened in the Ritz-Carlton hotel nearby.
ƥandasnovel·ƈom The results were still pending how it would all unfold, whether the hotel would face the consequences for their lack of security or crumble under the giant's thumb. He couldn't have such an incident in his hotel, ranked best in the city but wasn't as influential as the Carltons.
" It was an accident; there is nothing anyone could do about it, right honey?" He said.
" Right.."
They arrived at the door, and the manager opened the car door, but there was still one thing he wanted to ask.
" Sir, once again, I am sorry for this, but there is one thing that's been bothering me since I met you.." He paused and glanced at Samuel's face again.
" There is something on your-" When Liliana heard him, she knew what he would say, so she immediately started her act.
" Ahh, It started hurting a lot... Can we go a little faster?" She yelled out, completely damping the manager's last few words.
" Hurt? It's not even-" Samuel didn't know why she acted like this because there was no injury.
" Please?"
" Sir, I can still call a doctor-"
" Forget it. We should be leaving. Thank you for accommodating my unreasonable requests." He placed her in the front seat and closed the door.
" It's nothing, sir. We will be happy if you could overlook this incident." He hinted at something while Samuel got into the driver's seat.
" Don't worry; as I said, it was an accident. There is nothing anyone could have down about it." He started the car and drove away.
They drove briefly before Liliana popped her hoodie to reveal her face.
" Did you have to cover me like a baby? I am already sweating." She peeled back her sleeve, leaning back and stretching her arms.
" It was not my fault that you overdid it earlier. I warned you that this would happen." Samuel informed her and turned on the air conditioner.
Her legs were like jello after their intense session as she could barely walk; even after half an hour, it improved up to her walking funny.
" And whose fault is that, young man?" She commented.
" Not mine, You can't handle this young man, little girl. By the way, I am curious as to why you interrupted our talk earlier?" He said, asking about her faking her pain.
" Isn't it oblivious? You were taking too long. You don't want to be late, are you?"
" Hmm, why do I sense you are not telling me the truth? you have been acting strange too." Samuel was a little sceptical.
" Strange? You mean this?" She unfastened her seat belt and leaned towards him.
" Woah, wait, what are you doing?" Samuel slowed the car down.
" Now that the AC is on, I suddenly feel chilly. Maybe because I was sweating too much." She said as she wrapped her arms around his neck.
" I don't know where you are going with this, but if you plan to crash this car, you are succeeding." he was sharing his sense looking at her and the road.
" Come on, move your arm. The seats are a little cold; I want to sit someplace warm." She forced her head between his arms, trying to aim for his lap.
" Really, Liliana? haven't you had enough?" Samuel was baffled seeing her like this; something was definitely up with this girl! But he could stop her; he firmly placed herself between his legs.
Being a person of such long stature, it was already narrow in the driving seat, but with her arrival, there were only inches between her butt and the steering wheels.
" That's it. I am stopping the car." He began to slow down.
" Why? Am I making you uncomfortable?" She whispered into his ears.
" Yes, but my main concern is, how the hell am I supposed to drive when you are blocking my vision?" He stared at her while she removed his disguise.
" Don't worry about that; I don't know when I can spend time alone with you. Can't I even get to hug you for the journey? I didn't get my fill because of our time crunch." She said, blinking her eyes to make herself look cute.
" Is that it?"
" We will also hit the evening traffic; I promise I will not do anything else." She wrapped her legs around his waist and perched her bottom onto his crotch.
" Alright, but no grinding! I don't want to embarrass myself in front of your family with a hard-on." Samuel stated his condition. He, too, didn't know when he would see her again like this.
" Deal, wake me up when we get there." After arranging her hair, she simply hugged him tight and soon fell asleep. It was an absurd sleeping posture, but his smell made it easier for her to relax.
...
...
...
" Wake up, we have arrived."
" Umm, my body hurts like hell..." She twisted herself, wriggling around, feeling soreness all over her body.
" Question is, can you walk normally? I don't want to explain why you can't visit your family." Soon, a few people started approaching his car. Raul was at the centre of them; Samuel could tell he was still nervous with the look on his face.
They exited the vehicle, and Liliana shook her legs, feeling some life back into them. The pain was still there, but it was tolerable.
" I think I could do it." They walked up to the crowd with warm smiles.
" You are late. Father has been waiting for you since evening-" Raul started complaining when he noticed something wrong with Samuel. Others also saw it when they came closer; what the hell was that?
" What? Why are you looking at me like that?" Samuel didn't know why they were staring at him.
" Nothing... Let's head inside." Raul didn't have the guts to tell him. With a significant problem, Samuel ought to be doing it voluntarily, right? Who was he to question him? he went through several mental gymnastics before concluding that it had nothing to do with him!
" Is something wrong with my face? Why is everyone acting so strange today?" Samuel asked Liliana about it.
" You are overthinking things. Let's head inside." She grabbed his arms and led him inside the compound. What Samuel didn't notice was her mischievous smile when she said it. It would be a proper punishment for him!
