The elevator had stopped. Andrew was trapped with Maria. He felt a weird, nervous energy start to bubble inside him. He felt like a teenager.

He found himself studying her, watching her. He noticed she had a tiny scar above her left eyebrow. He thought she was perfect.

He started a conversation. He talked to her, and she listened. They began to laugh. The air crackled around them. He loved her laugh.

He tried to keep his voice steady, but his heart was pounding in his chest. Every time she looked at him, he felt like he was floating. It was a strange, exhilarating feeling, something he'd never experienced before.
