For the next two days all was well at County General Hospital. There was a relatively small fatality rate, no rape cases, and Tony didn't accost Neela in an elevators. But that last little statistic didn't please the girl at all. As much as Neela kept telling herself that she despised basically getting jumped on, so much of her missed getting touched. Neela became celibate after her husband died; refusing anyone who came hear her in the many bars she escaped to. The one time she was caught in a passionate moment since Michael died, it was a spur of the moment thing, and Neela ached for it once again.
As if the Fates had foreseen it the day that Dr. Rasgotra ended up in an elevator once again with her student, was the day her sexual frustration was at its peak. The minute the elevator door closed and the floor was chose Neela rushed at Tony and pushed him against the car wall. Gates was a bit confused, but at the same time completely turned on by his little Mayday's take-charge attitude. The man wrapped his arms around Neela's waist and pulled her closer, then turned so that she was against the wall.
By this time the two were well into a make-out session and didn't realize that the car had reached its floor. Tony had his hands sliding up Neela's shirt when the doors opened, which was finally when they heard the elevator bell ding and the two broke apart. Which was when Rasgotra saw Ray standing in the doorway alone, and locked eyes with him. Then woman couldn't describe the look on her ex-roomies face. The only thing that she could make out was hurt.
