Hello everyone! New year, new story! This will feature all three AATC couples. This first chapter is about Alvin and Brittany. Should the next chapter be about them? Or should I switch it up and do another couple for a chapter and then come back to them? Anyways, enjoy! And please review!
New Years Eve. A time to reminisce about the previous year, and to look forward to the upcoming one. Out with the old, and in with the new. People celebrate in numerous ways; going out to dinner for some, staying home and laying low for others, and drinking the night away for those who can. This is an ample time to spend with your family and friends, as you celebrate a new beginning.
Not all, however, enjoy how they spend their New Years Eve.
Brittany Miller worked as the head secretary to the owner of California Capital Bank. It had the most branches in California than any other bank. She was required to work 7 days a week, for long hours, because her boss was always in his office.
She loved everything about her job, except one, single thing. Her ex-boyfriend, Alvin Seville, worked in the same exact building as her. He was a broker for the bank. She didn't know how they could work in the same building without it exploding, that's how bad their hatred for each other was. However, she put him to the back of her head while she was at work. It was important that she concentrated on her job.
On New Years Eve, she was stuck in the office until 10 o'clock. She would have just enough time to go home, get ready, and go out to celebrate for the New Year. She clocked out, and walked to the elevator with utmost confidence. She pressed the down button, The elevator arrived, and she stepped on. Just as the doors were closing, something stopped it and another person got on. She groaned once she saw who it was.
"I'm getting off," she said, pressing the door open button frantically. She had to get off of this elevator, now. But it was too late, the elevator had already begun moving.
"Relax, will you? We'll be downstairs in a minute, and then we go separate ways." he said.
Brittany rolled her eyes and crossed her arms. Why did her boss have to work on the 105th floor? She anxiously tapped her side, impatient to get off the elevator.
"So, what've you been up to?" he asked, nonchalantly.
"Nothing that pertains to you."
"Still snippy, I see." he said, probably with a smirk.
"Shut up, Alvin. I don't want to hear you."
He snorted.
Just then, the lights in the elevator flickered, and the elevator shook. The elevator came to a stop, not even halfway down. The doors didn't open, and there was a low buzzing sound.
"No, no, no, no, no, no, no," Brittany whined, pressing the door open button again. The doors, nor the elevator, would move.
"Why are you in such a rush? It will move in a second."
"Shut up! I don't want to hear you, especially not tonight." she exclaimed.
"Ooh, you have a hot date tonight?" he asked, trying to annoy her further.
"As a matter of fact, I do," she lied. "So now, you can mind your own business, and leave me alone."
"You certainly haven't changed." he scoffed.
"You mean my hatred for you hasn't changed? Damn straight!"
"Boy, you're extra hormonal, tonight."
"Can you just leave me alone? Please?" she begged.
"Nah, don't think so."
The lights flickered again, and then the elevator phone started ringing.
"Hello?!" Brittany answered with anticipation.
"Hi, the elevator is experiencing some technical difficulties, and you may be stuck there for a while." a man said.
"What? No! I can't be stuck here!"
"Ma'am, we are working to fix the situation."
"I have places to go, and people to see, and I'm stuck with a lunatic!"
"Is his presence an immediate danger to you?"
"Only to my nerves."
"Then there's nothing we can do. Maintenance is on its way, but be prepared to be stuck there for a few hours."
"A few hours?! Whoa, not going to happen. I have to get off, now!"
"I'm sorry ma'am, but there is nothing we can do at this time. Stay calm, and relax. It may be a while."
"Thanks," she said, with a huff. She hung up the phone, and groaned.
"What did they say?"
"That we'll be stuck here for a few hours."
"What? I have plans!" he exclaimed.
"Get in line, pal." she started taking off her pumps. If she was going to be stuck there, she was going to be comfortable.
"What are you doing?"
"Could you do me a favor? Do. Not. Talk. To. Me. Ok? Just don't. I don't want to hear you."
"Not likely."
"I hate you. So much."
"Awww, thanks."
Her blood was boiling right now. He just loved to push her to her breaking point. She slid down to the floor, and started banging her head on the wall.
"Whatcha doing?" he asked, also sliding down to the floor.
"Trying to put myself out of my misery."
"Am I really that bad?"
"Yes! You're awful."
"Then, I'll shut up, if you stop banging your head on the wall."
"Why does it matter to you if I kill myself?"
"Because they'll think I did it."
"Just shut up, I'll do what I want."
"And I'll do what I want, and I don't want to shut up."
Brittany groaned. It was going to be a long night.
To be continued...
