Enjoy!

67. “Of all the people I could’ve gotten stuck in an elevator with and it just had to be you.”

“Well, excuse me,” Kim snorted, leaning back with his arms crossed. “Do I need to find a time machine so that I could have let the other guy get in before me?”

“Yes.”

He shook his head. “Yeah, but not a chance.”

Ignoring him, Alix stabbed the com button with a finger, and a male voice crackled through.

“How can I help you?”

“Hello, yeah, the elevator here just died at floor number,” she glanced up. “Four and I would appreciate it if you send someone to get me out.”

“Is there someone else with you, miss?”

“Get us out,” Kim interjected, coming to stand behind her. He ignored the glare she shot at him as he continued to talk. “And yes, there’s someone else with her right now. We would really appreciate it if you come and get us.”

There was some shuffling at the other side of the line before the man started talking again. “We’ll be there as soon as we can.”

Before they could say anything more, the line went dead.

Kim took a step back. “Well, that was reassuring.”

Groaning, Alix rub her eyes with the heel of her hand, the other one holding onto a paper bag. “I can’t believe I’m stuck in an elevator with you.”

“Yeah, well, we can’t always get what we want.” He snorted.

She glared at him. “What are you doing here, anyway?”

“You’re not the only one wanting to visit Miss Bustier, you know,” he huffed, crossing his arms as he leaned on the wall of the elevator. “I happened to be a student of hers too, in case you haven’t notice.”

“How couldn’t I,” she bit out sarcastically. “When you keep yapping a couple of seats back for the past few years and doing nothing but grating not only on Ivan’s nerves, but mine too.”

He raised an eyebrow at her. “Why are you so angry at me?”

“I’m always angry at you, Hercules, get use to it.”

“No, but you’ve been extra,” he stopped when she arched an eyebrow defiantly, daring him to say the word he was thinking. “Bitchy,” he smirked. There, he said it. “And I know it’s been directed to me lately. So, spit it out and tell me what the hell did I do this time.”

“Or what, Meathead?” She taunted, propping her hands onto her hips. “You’re going to make me tell you? Oh, please-”

“Ha!” He pointed towards her that she was startled for a moment. “You are mad at me. Come on, Tinkerbell, we’re usually straight forward with each other, your passive aggressive attitude threw me off for the past few days, and now that we’re face to face, you’re being aggressive than usual.”

She opened her mouth in disbelief, before she snapped it close as she glared at him. “I’m being aggressive than usual? What do you expect when you’re stuck with an idiot in a hospital elevator? And I wasn’t being passive aggressive.”

He snorted, rolling his eyes. “Yeah, sure you weren’t. Because everytime I’ll ask a question, you couldn’t even look at me in the eye and answer me. Which, by the way, is very rude.”

“It sucks when I don’t even answer your calls, doesn’t it?” she hissed. “Have you ever thought how I felt when you did that to me?”

Kim stared at her in confusion. “What are you talking about? I’ll always answer-”

“Cut the crap, Kim,” she leaned against the opposite wall of the elevator. “Remember two weeks ago when you promised me we’ll go rollerblading? Yeah, you didn’t show up. And when you told me to wait for you at the cafe because you needed to borrow some notes? I did, for two goddamn hours that in the end I left because I had better things to do than doing nothing.”

He blinked at her in surprise. “Is this what it is? I told you, I was out with Max-”

“I don’t care where you’ve been,” she snapped. “What I don’t appreciate is that you made me waste my time, you sag of rotten meat, and even had the guts to stand up on me later,” she threw her hands in the air. “What the hell, Kim?”

He sighed. “Alix, look, I’m sorry, okay? I didn’t really mean it.”

“Oh really?” she scoffed. “Then, what’s with the incident of you ditching me at the mall just because you were chasing after some chick? You could have called me and told me so that I wouldn’t have to search for your damn ass. What’s the use of a cellphone if you’re not using it the way you’re supposed to use it?”

“Wait,” he scrutinised her. “Are you jealous?”

She threw her arms up in exasperation. “Are you kidding me? I told you all of that and the only thing that went through your kelp mind was that I’m jealous? What is wrong with you?”

“Well, when I was out with Max, you exploded. When I was trying to help the lady find her son, you exploded. What am I supposed to think, Alix?”

“That you should keep your damn promises, for god’s sake,” Then, the elevator jerked to a start that she had to held onto the wall to maintain her balance. She sighed, all the anger drained out when it started moving. “Whatever, Kim, do what you want.”

He reached for her, eyes wide with panic. “Alix-”

She didn’t even wait for the doors to open fully when they stopped at level eight, quickly slipping through before she stalked her way through the corridor, the paper bag almost crumpled in her fist.

See, that’s what the app is perfect for.
