Chapter 7
Just as their lips where about to touch the elevator stopped. The lights went completely off and the sudden stop shook the small box. Renee lurched forward, stumbling into Joe's arms, while he fell backwards, landing on his butt. It was completely dark in the room. Renee couldn't see past her own face. She had never really been scared of the dark, or of elevators, but them together and add the elevator being stopped for an unknown reason made her frightened. Though, she would never admit it. Joe's strong arms were firmly around her waist, holding her close to him. The combination of her fear and the fact that she was so close to him spead up her breathing.
Joe spoke quietly, his breath warm on the beck of her neck, "are you okay?"
She nodded slowly, "y-yeah." Her voice was shaky and her throat dry. Was this because of the boy who had that strange affect on her or was it because of the predicament they were in?
"You sure? not hurt any where," he asked again, obviously worried. Why, she didn't even know. There was no way she could even begin to understand this boy. She had tried to kill his brother, even threatened his own life, yet he seemed to completely ignore that fact, caring only about her and not the many sins she had committed.
"No, I'm not hurt," she clarified, "um, are you?" That was the first time that she had ever asked about someone else. First time she cared.
"No, I'm great." Joe said quietly, shifting her weight on his lap. "What happened?" Renee shrugged, unsure. "Maybe it just.. died? I don't know." he thought aloud, filling the quiet space with his beautiful voice. With Joe's help, she stood up. They leaned against the back of the elevator, their shoulders touching. Joe took out his cell phone and the light filled the room. "There isn't any servous, but at least we have light." The girl looked up and smiled at him. His face showed surprise but then he smiled back, flashing his white teeth. As quick as it was before, it was dark again.
"What?" She breathed out her words, "what happened?"
Joe groaned, "my phone just died."
"Oh... uh.. Joe?" She bit her lip, afraid to ask. What would he think of her?
"Yes Renee?'
She took a breath, "will you hold my hand?" Renee couldn't believe she just asked that. She was being so weak right now. What was wrong with her? Ever since she meet him she just wanted to be held and comforted by Joe, feel save with him forever. She felt his hand on her wrist then slide down and take her hand. His hand fit perfectly with hers, as if they were meant to be held together.
"So, what now?" Joe asked, sliding down the wall. Renee took her phone out of her pocket then sat next to him. She turned it on the blue-white light shining from the wide screen. Joe let go of her hand but put his arm around her shoulders instead. He brought her closer to him, making her rest her head on his chest. Renee looked up past his face and at the top of the doors, trying to remember what floor they were on or between. A few silent moments past, just with the two unlikely teenagers holding each other.
After what seemed like forever, Joe broke the silence, "what to play a game?" Renee looked at Joe in surprise. A game? "We could play thumb war, that is.. if you want to."
Did he just honestly ask her if she wanted to play thumb war with him? She didn't even know what that was! Well, Renee knew the basics, but she had never played. She never even really placed games before. Joe fumbled for something in his pocket. "Here," he pulled out a half pack of gum. "winner takes all."
Renee laughed. She actually laughed. Not a bitter laugh, or laughing at something. But she laughed because of how cute Joe was being. He smiled at her and his brown eyes lit up. "it'll be fun," he said it like a little kid would, so hopeful of her saying yes.
"You're on. But, there has to be interest; split a piece in two." Joseph did as he was ordered then offered her one half. "Thanks," she said as she took it.
"Yep," he smiled then put the other half into his mouth. After Renee did the same he took her hand in hers. Joe moved so he was sitting in front of her, cross legged. "Okay, I think we should make this a little more interesting," he said smirking.
