Grin and Bare it

"How does that make any sense?" Dexter asked. "Won't we get more stares if we just waltz past everyone in the lobby without covering?"

"I don't like it either. In fact, I hate it, but do you see anything we can grab in there that won't draw attention to us?"

Dexter took another look into the lobby, sighing as he saw that Sophie was right. There were pillows right next to people on the couches, a group of girls standing next to a potted plant; literally no option that wouldn't expose them to the other people before concealing their shame.

"Okay..." Dexter sighed, "Let's get this over with."

"Yes, can I hel-" The Receptionist said as he turned around, stopping mid sentence as he saw the two naked, red faced eighteen year olds in front of him, most of lobby staring as well. After a few seconds, he sighed and shook his head. "Let me guess, you two got locked out of your room completely naked?"

Sophie and Dexter's blushing faces told The Receptionist everything.

"Yes, yes. You'd be surprised how many times this has happened here. And few actually unintentional." The Receptionist stated. "I will admit that this is the first time that I've seen those locked out not even bothering to cover up."

Sophie and Dexter only blushed deeper.

"What room are you two in?"

Sophie and Dexter were now a shade of purple.

"No, no, no! We're not together." Dexter replied with a awkward and embarrassed laugh. "W-we're in separate rooms."

"... Do I look like I was born yesterday, Sir?"

"He's telling the truth. I'm from Room 539!" Sophie replied.

"Yeah! And I'm from Room 522!"

"Sir. Madam. We have guests who are unfortunate enough to be locked out of their rooms without their clothing." The Receptionist stated, "However, we never had two different guests from two different rooms be locked out naked at the exact same time. Now, Sir, you two have two choices: I can either give you and your girlfriend here your room key, or I can call the police and escort you both off the premises for indecent exposure. Which is it?"

Dexter and Sophie, while startled by the "girlfriend" comment, merely looked at each other. They both knew they had to lie about this in order to get out of the public eye, as a few girls were filming nearby. But which one?

Dexter's room was out of the question. Dexter did not want to see or hear what his brother would say or do if Frank saw Sophie, and Sophie was not to keen on being seen by a guy who was apparently cruel enough to purposely humiliate his brother like that.

On the other hand, if they went to Sophie's room, there was no doubt that Carol would get the wrong idea. And if Sophie saw how awkward, flustered and shy this guy got around her, she could only imagine the poor guy fainting when he saw that the room had three other woman inside.

Still though, Carol's unintended humiliation was better than Frank's intended humiliation...

"Room 539." They said simultaneously.

"I'm really sorry about all of this." Sophie apologized as they rode the elevator back up to the fifth floor.

"It's fine, I guess." Dexter replied. "I can probably just beg Frank to let me back in and hope he's had his fun."

"And if he doesn't?"

Dexter remained quiet.

"You know, you can sleep with me." Sophie offered.

"Huh?!"

Sophie let out a squeak and blushed as she realized her slip. "I-I mean, stay with me! Crap! Not with me. In my room with me. Eek! I mean, I'll be in my bed and you can sleep on the couch!"

"You... You'd let me stay the night?"

"The least I could do for you not making fun of me. Even if you were lying to make me feel better."

"Hey! I wasn't lying." Dexter defended, "I really think you're cute. A cute face, a cute body, a cute ass. Hell! Would I have gotten hard and... Well..." He shyly gestured to the wet spot on the elevator wall, "Did that if I didn't think you were attractive?"

Now it was Sophie's turn to be quiet as she blushed.

"And besides..." He began quietly as he looked away, "You were the one lying to me about how there's nothing wrong with my twig like body and manhood."

"First off, I wasn't lying either." Sophie said, getting Dexter's attention as he turned back to face her. "You are not that skinny. You're not some hulking goliath, but you're not skin and bones either! Second, what's wrong with your... Er, manhood?"

"What's wrong?! You were looking at it, right?! It's puny!"

"It doesn't look that small to me. Actually, I think it looks kinda cute." Sophie said before letting out a squeak and biting her lip. "Crap! That last part was out loud, wasn't it?!"

"There you go ag-"

Suddenly, the elevator jolted to a stop, causing Dexter to yelp as he lost his balance and toppled forward, landing on an equally startled Sophie as they fell to the floor once more...

The only difference this time being that Dexter's lips had crashed into Sophie's, a powerful tingle shooting up their spines as they stared wide eyed into each other's eyes and blushed even redder than before.
