"Ok, but, I'm going to get a room as close as I can get to hers and Ethan's.", Fox replied. "I'm not, going to let Theresa be prone to all these sexual predators."
"Ok.", Paloma replied. "fine by me, as long as I get a bed."
"May I help you?", the short red headed woman asked.
"Can we get the room closest to Theresa Lopez-Fitzgerald?", Fox asked.
"Just a second.", the woman replied pressing a few keys on the keyboard. "I'm sorry, we have no Theresa Lopez-Fitzgerald booked."
"What about Ethan Crane or Ethan Lopez-Fitzgerald?", Fox asked.
"Hold on.", the woman replied, pressing a few keys. "There's a Theresa Crane booked."
"Theresa.", Paloma replied. "What rooms that 2-25 and 2-26, jointing rooms."
"Thank you.", Paloma replied. "We'll take a room close to those."
"2-29?', the woman asked.
"That's ok, with me.", Paloma replied.
"Hold on is 2-27, booked?", Fox asked.
"It's reserved.", the woman replied.
"Well, I'm willing to pay triple what was paid.", Fox replied.
"No, sir, we can't do that.", the woman argued.
"Do, you know he is?", Paloma asked. "Nicholas Foxworth Crane, heir to the Crane fortune."
"Yes, sir, you can have the room, no problem, anything for you, Mr. Crane.", the woman replied.
"Here's your keys, enjoy your stay.", the woman replied handing Fox the key.
"Thank you.", Paloma replied. "Whatchu' name, I'll make sure Fox gets you a raise for being so helpful."
