"Maddie…Maddie wake up…MADDIE!" Esteban hollered while trying to wake her up. Apparently Maddie had fallen asleep on the way home.
"What?" Maddie stated while looking around confused. "Huh? Esteban…this isn't your house…is it?
"No. My car seems to have stopped. Do you know what happened?" Esteban questioned with a look of a lost puppy on his face.
"Well, I'm not sure" Maddie said sympathetically " but I could check it out"
Both of them got out of the car and went to the engine. While Esteban popped the hood of the car, Maddie went to the other side to check the oil. As soon as the hood of the car was opened though, an enormous squirt of oil poured all over Maddie and burnt her arm.
"Ow! Maddie yelled "Ow...this really hurts ow!" Maddie pulled her arm in towards her and started to hug herself protectively.
As soon as Esteban saw this he ran towards her and grabbed the water bottle he fortunately kept in his car and poured on her arm.
"Ow! Esteban! It really hurts make it stop!" Maddie yelled at the top of her lungs. She hissed in pain. Then Esteban thought quickly and took his bellboy coat from his back seat and wrapped up her arm.
"Shh…Maddie, it's okay. Just let me do this okay? It's supposed to hurt for just a sec.."
"OWW! Take it off! Please!" By now Maddie's eyes were tearing up badly. Esteban then poured the rest of the water over the jacket so it wouldn't directly touch her skin.
After a minute or two of silent crying she stopped and relaxed a little and tried to recompose her self. After wiping her eyes she looked at Esteban and smiled a little. She had to admit that being covered in oil sitting on the shoulder of the road with a bellboy costume wrapped on her arm did seem somewhat comical.
"Well." Esteban said softly "I guess we figured out what went wrong, eh?"
"Yes" Maddie agreed. "I think we did."
"Is your arm okay?" Esteban asked worriedly "How burnt is it?"
"Well, I don't know…I don't think it'll get infected though…I just need some bandages"
"Hmm…I think I have some at my apartment."
"But…the thing is...how do we get there?" Maddie asked
"Don't worried Maddie…we'll find a way…we'll find a way." Esteban said confidently while squeezing Maddie's hand.
"Yeah" Maddie said squeezing his hand back. "We will, won't we?"
Oh, they'll find a way…so what do you guys think? Like it? Hate it? Please, R&R and tell me…I'm trying to make this story at least 15 chappies! There's gonna be 2 stories after this one. And thanks for the reviews…please add me to the Fireman's ball committee for the Esteban/Maddie fics…thanks!
