Just The Three Of Us

Trapped In The Elevator

Maggie Pov

"Where have you been," I asked Rory a bit rudely. "Oh, I know with HIM!"

"Please relax, mom, geez I have only spent a couple of nights at his place," Rory replied.

"Every night," I corrected her. "Every night since the blind date." Rory put her stuff down on the counter and went to the fridge to grab some milk.

"Can you calm down," she said. "You know I would come over if you needed me to."

"I know," I sighed. "It's just weird to not have you here when I come home."

"Sorry dear," she pouted. Rory came over the counter and gave me a big hug and said she was sorry.

"No, I'm sorry, I'm happy for you," I told her.

"I hope so because I think that Deckard is the real deal," she grinned. I really was happy for her.

"s**t, I'm going to be late," I said as I grabbed my phone off the counter and picked up my bag, and rushed out the apartment.

"Have a good day dear," Rory said as I slammed the door shut. I got in my car and hurried to my editor's office. I  was going to text her just in case and tell her I was on my way but luckily, she loved me enough to not mind a few minutes of my lateness. I got into the parking garage and hurried into the elevator.

"Hold the door," I heard a familiar voice say.

"Andrew," I smiled.

"Madam M," he grinned.

"Not so loud someone might hear you," I joked. I really didn't care if anyone recognized me or not but it was easier being able to have discretion and an alter ego.

***BOOM****

We were chatting about my new book and the girls when suddenly the elevator stopped.

"What was that," I said.

"Damn, the elevator stopped," Andrew said. He pushed the emergency button three times and no one answered.

"Oh no, I'm already late as it is," I said as I rolled my eyes.

"Don't worry, someone will notice and send help," he said confidently.

"Yeah, your right," I said.

"Well, I'm going to sit and look through my emails," he said as he sat down. I suddenly got so nervous. I wanted to sit down next to him but I didn't want to sit down next to him. How am I able to be so confident in my writing and even in real life in most cases but with him, no with him I am simply jello.

"You okay?" Andrew asked.

"Yeah, I'll sit too," I said as I slowly sat down beside him. He reached for my hand so he could help me lower myself. My face got so close to his I thought I would pass out.

"Maggie," he said softly.

"Yeah,"

"You never called me for that coffee," he said still sounding so confident.

"I've been busy but I did want to," I told him.

"Good, I keep wondering when you're going to give me a chance to ask you out," he smiled.

"Oh," I had no words. I was breathing a bit heavier now.

"Stop panicking," I thought. Andrew leaned in closer and his lips slightly touched mine. I cupped his face and leaned into the kiss. I have wanted to kiss him for so long. It felt just like I had imagined. His hands went to my waist and took a firm hold around me.

"Maggie," Andrew said.

"It's probably Jessica, asking where the hell am I," I told Andrew. I looked down at my phone and was shocked to see a whole bunch of naked d**k pics from Talon.

"What the hell," I said. Unfortunately, Andrew leaned in and saw them.

"DAMN!" he said calmly. "I'm bigger by the way." I choked on my saliva and was about to put away my phone but then I got another few texts.

-like what you see-

-let me take you out and show you what a real man has to offer you-

"Someone is desperate," Andrew said. "But persistent, maybe you should give him a chance." I was going to say something but then the elevator started working again.

"Son of a bi-," I thought. We both got up and since we were already on Andrew's floor he got out. I sighed and pushed the button to go up to my editor's office.

"About time," Jessica said as I entered her office. "Do you have the new pages?"

"Yeah," I said somberly. "Here."

"What's wrong with you," she asked.

"A d**k pic just ruined my life," I said annoyed.

"Don't they always," she smirked. "Let me see, it can't look that bad."

"It's not that," I told her. "I was just not alone when I got them."

"Oh, you were with Drew," she said.

"Yeah," I couldn't even deny it the first time she asked if I liked him so I told her about my crush.

"Well, your a grown woman and an erotic novelist, so relax and tell him it was for your new book and ask his fine ass out already," she said.

"f**k!" I shouted. Jessica looked over my pages and wrote down her notes. I took them and went home to get to work on the edits. It was no shocker Rory wasn't home yet. Since she had my phone I figured I would send her what Talon sent me and tell her to bring my phone back if she hadn't yet noticed. Pic after Pic I sent them to my phone. I actually should have known better. If she was with Deckard, me sending them to her wasn't a good idea but it ruined my dating life so why shouldn't it ruin hers too.

"I'm going to be staying with Maggie tonight," I told Deckard. "I'm going to order so much food we will be passed out by nine."

"Okay, I can't say I won't miss your warmth next to me when I fall asleep but I don't want to take time away from your best friends," he said. I couldn't resist and I leaned over and kissed him.

"I'm going to use the bathroom real quick," I walked away and left my phone by his bed.
