Elevator problems...bets are on a newbie's power fritz
Having just finished a work out in the danger room, Vlad waits for the elevator up while toweling off his hair. Luckily it had been pretty empty so he could put on the swashbuckling pirate program that was a favourite of Uncle Kurt's. What? It was still a good workout and tons of fun.

	Cait smiled up at him. "As you wish." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

He gets up and gives her a short bow. "Thank you, kind lady. I promise to share the cookies."

Now this was the part where he'd give her a quick kiss, smile, and casually turn to leave when the elevator doors opened. He does the first parts, and then turns to realize...oh yeah. Elevator stuck.

Well this was embarrassing. So to cover up slightly he ineffectually pushes the emergency button again. Obviously no response.

Man he had bad luck.

	"There's no need to be embarrassed," she told him. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"I'd argue against that..." He doesn't turn around and opts to focus on pushing that red emergency button again. Maybe eventually it would do something? At least it was a good distraction. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Cait put a hand on his shoulder to turn him around. Once he did, she gave him a kiss. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	He gave her a small smile. "So...not out of pity-the-guy-who-nearly-walked-into-an-elevator-door feelings?" (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"Of course not," she said. "I...um...I really like you." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	The smile on his face says more than enough and this time the kiss he gives her is quite a bit longer. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Cait's toes curled and she returned the kiss. Her arms went up around his neck. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	His own hands go to her waist to pull her in closer. Maybe almost walking into an elevator door wasn't so bad. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	_tsunami_ 2012-10-03 10:42 pm UTC (link)
	Cait let herself be pulled closer and now she was pressing up against him. Maybe the power being out was a good thing. Of course at that moment the power came back on and the elevator rose to the next floor and the doors opened. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

They may notice the power suddenly coming back on and the door opening to reveal an annoyed Fred, standing beside Rachel as he worked on the fuse box.

"I have managed to get the elevator running again, in spite of the fact it is not my area of exper-" and he finally notes what they're doing, and sniffs a few times. "...I had not realized your stay in there was that extensive."

	...He had just the worst luck didn't he. His hands immediately snap to his sides and he gives both Rachel and Fred an all too forced cheerful smile. "Thanks for the help Fred! Hi Rachel, nice to see you." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	_tsunami_ 2012-10-03 11:13 pm UTC (link)
	Cait realized what happened and her face turned bright red. "Hi." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	marvel_girl 2012-10-03 11:23 pm UTC (link)
	Well. Considering she'd once thought-cast her making out into Cait's room, this was tame actually. "Uh... hi?" (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	dark_scion 2012-10-03 11:41 pm UTC (link)
	"At least assure me you were not going to fornicate in there. People use this elevator," Fred said with a completely straight face. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	under_the_skin 2012-10-03 11:49 pm UTC (link)
	Facepalm. "..." Somehow Fred had managed to make an embarrassing situation mortifying. "...No Fred, we were not," he mumbled through his hand, turning quite red himself. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	_tsunami_ 2012-10-03 11:57 pm UTC (link)
	If Cait's face wasn't red before, it surely was red now. It contrasted greatly against her blue hair. "We're not." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	marvel_girl 2012-10-04 08:51 pm UTC (link)
	Rachel's mouth opened and closed a few times before any coherent sound came out. "Um... I'll just... take the stairs?" (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	dark_scion 2012-10-04 08:54 pm UTC (link)
	Fred looks annoyed at Rachel. "Nonsense. I took time out of my research to do this. You are taking the elevator, I insist. They can use a bed like most people." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Vlad just looks away embarrassed, and very red to boot, muttering something that sounded like swearing in Russian. He can already hear the rumour mill starting. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	_tsunami_ 2012-10-04 10:00 pm UTC (link)
	Cait's eyes went wide and then her cheeks got hotter. She didn't think it was possible she could blush more or be more embarrassed. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)
