Hot Springs and late night talks..
Liz pulled up to the lodge with a yawn. They had heard on the radio after they had passed the bridge and got into the mountains that there was a storm on the other side, basically locking them in the valley where the spring was until crews could clear the road again.
"Good thing we booked the weekend then." Quatre said worriedly.
"They tend to break the road free pretty quick. How you guys doing back there?" She glanced back to where Jordan was sitting curled up with her head on Wufei's shoulder.
"We're fine." Heero answered for them. "I see why Lynn hates you driving though. Most of the way out here was little visibility."
"I memorized the road out here as a little kid. If you could have seen it, we were on the edge of the road with a thousand foot drop most of the time." Liz leaned her head against the steering wheel. The pool sounds great right now though."
Lynn snatched up their bag after opening the doors to let out the guys.
"Just give me a second I'll be right with you." Jordan said nodding to her leg. They had waited long enough for her to have her leg checked out by her doctor, who had taken the cast off and given her a brace.
"You shouldn't go swimming yet Jordan." Wufei said watching her. She grinned.
"You come to the hot spring to relax. I'll be sitting in the shallow side comfortably sipping ice water." She smiled. "You'll see, it's kind of like a huge hot tub."
"I just can't wait." Duo smiled at the thoughts in his head.
"Come on Hentai (Pervert)." Heero grabbed him making him yelp as the two started to slip on the ice. Trowa easily caught Heero while Lynn reached out to steady Duo.
"Walk carefully out here." Lynn said with a small grin. "Jordan, you want us to help you?"
"I can make it." Jordan tested the ground easily and nodded. She snatched up her duffle bag. "So let's have some fun." She grinned moving along with the group.
Fog swirled around the eight teens. Jordan felt something move behind her.
I told you we would meet out here.
Leave me alone Jack. Unlike you, I'm working. She thought as she moved for the doors of the lodge.
"Jordan?" It was Wufei's voice.
"I'm coming." Jordan said trying to move for the door. Jack appeared behind her grabbing her arm.
You're staying put. Jordan felt the fog thicken around her and closed her eyes trying to will it away.
Duo walked into the lobby of the hotel looking around. The small room looked like he had walked into the early thirties from the fog. "Woah..."
"Welcome to Circle Hot Springs. You must be the Winner party?" The woman at the desk asked dressed in a grey vest with a white shirt underneath. "We only have four single rooms open, is that okay?" She asked.
Quatre nodded. "That's fine." He and Lynn went to fill out the paperwork.
It would be so easy to take out the boys... Don't you know, no other man's supposed to make you happy.
"I told you to leave me alone." Jordan hissed as Jack moved in front of her. He was tall, his cold blue eyes having no life in them. She could tell he was doing his best just to hold the fog around them. It would only take a few spells to weaken him... But I promised I wouldn't use magic unless it was needed for the others... She thought yelping as she stepped back and lost her balance.
Strong arms caught her and she struggled.
"Easy, it's me." Wufei held her calmly. She nodded letting him help her up, feeling the fog ease up a little. She gave the faintest grin.
What's wrong Jack... Afraid of the men from the colonies. She let Wufei help her inside.
"We have rooms on the third floor!" Liz squealed happily. "The third floor's the coolest, you can see above the ice fog from the pool." She was bouncing happily. Lynn grabbed her shoulder trying to hold her lover still.
"As long as we don't hear Duo all night we're good." Quatre joked.
"All the rooms here are sound proofed. We came out to circle because it's less family oriented. Means less kids." Lynn winked to Duo.
"Yes... Someone's getting lucky tonight." Duo breathed happily.
"I just hope the batteries don't run out..." Liz muttered making Lynn blush brightly.
"And the only straight people in the building walk into something THEY really didn't want to know about." Jordan said with a giggle.
"I don't know.. we might find something fun to do." Wufei gave a small grin as he snatched the keys to the room he and Jordan would be sharing.
"The bathrooms are at the end of the hall. It's shared for each level. Nothing real fancy, they built this place originally as a bordello for the miners. Legend has it you can still see the women who worked here on the other side of the building. That's why it's closed off to the public. If Adam's here though, maybe we can get a tour of the other wing." Lynn said as she hefted up her bag. "And sorry, no elevator."
"What? Oh no way... We need an elevator." Quatre joked. He was already taking in most of the decor. The yellow striped wallpaper was starting to grow on him as he followed the two lesbians up the stairs to their rooms. each floor was slightly different with the decor. The second story was done in antique pink with gold framed photos of the early thirties and forties on the walls. Most of women in can-can outfits with arms draped around different men.
The third floor was done in blues, with silver frames, this one had photos of important events and framed newspapers on the walls. He stopped to read one article.
Jordan opened the door to the room she and Wufei were going to share and entered into the small sitting room.
"I can take the couch if you want Jordan." Wufei said calmly as he entered after her. She looked at him.
"I don't mind sharing the bed." She said blushing.
Trowa dropped his and Quatre's bag just inside the door and scooped up his smaller lover carrying him into the room, kicking the door behind him.
"Trowa..." Quatre yelped. as he was placed on the bed.
"Hm?" Trowa asked looking into the sea blue orbs with his own forest green eyes. The Sandrock pilot smiled up at him.
"Guess we have some time." Trowa nodded.
"The trip out here was too long." He complained softly devouring his small lover with kisses.
Duo and Heero set their bags down in their room and went to explore the area, finding Lynn on the fourth floor in the library.
"Thought you and Liz would be playing around." Duo said sitting across from her.
"That'll be later. She always gets testy after she drives up here. So while she takes a nap, I find other things to do." She held up the book she had been reading.
"Russian literature?"
"It's something to read. What'cha two up to?"
"Just walking around." Duo said with a grin. "So, you're the tour guide, anything of interest?"
"I could show you around the hotel. Though I'd rather not go outside yet. Visibility is still nil out there."
"That's fine." Heero said. I want to question her about Jordan too. She's been on edge since we heard about the storm.
"Then how about we hit the dinning hall first. I have the munchies."
"Would it even be open?" Duo asked. Lynn nodded.
"Yeah. They don't close it during the day. And with the storm, I doubt they'll close it tonight. Depends how many of the rooms are filled." Lynn stood putting the book back on the shelf and tucking in her chair.
The library it's self took up a quarter of the fourth floor's space, having one wall full of books, mostly purchased by the winter staff to keep themselves sane in the long winter months. One wall of the ten foot square had an old battered couch and a chipped coffee table with a crystal ashtray on it.
The table where Lynn had been found was a round cafe table, also having had seen better days. the chair was a barstool that had been reupholstered. Down the rest of the hall were wooden barn doors.
"What are those?" Duo asked.
"Those are cheap rooms. Never used in the winter because it's too hard to warm them. They're used in the summer by backpackers. You don't even really get a bed, just a place to get out of the elements for the night." Lynn explained opening one of the doors so that the two could peek in.
The window was frosted over though a thin layer of plastic kept it from messing with the floor. The hard wood floor was smooth planks, though unpolished.
"Why would someone rent a room like that?"
"Backpackers find them fun. Better then a tent in this area. I know, first time I came to Alaska it was a backpacking trip with my dad. I grew up on L2. Liz doesn't know though. It's not like I've hidden it. I just, I don't like most of the memories from the colonies. I had a chance to get out though." She smiled touching the door lightly. "Anyway, dad and I came out here, hiking from Fairbanks. took us about a month, but that's because we dallied about a lot. that was about five years ago." She looked up.
"L2..." Duo nodded to the girl. "You're lucky to still have your dad."
"I don't. He died soon after we went back from our trip. I inherited the bushiness. Which I let the shareholders run because I wanted to come to school down here." She gave a small smirk. "Guess I'm just a little rich brat." She smiled. "At least I don't let it get to my head though. I gave myself a small allowance, when Liz and I get married, we'll already have a house paid for."
"That's cool." Duo grinned.
"Guess I sound a bit more like Quatre now don't I?" She asked with a small sigh.
"And like him it doesn't seem like you want to be in control of the company."
"Thanks Duo." She grinned softly.
"So this is where you are." Quatre said as he and Trowa walked up the stairs. Jordan and Wufei followed them, Jordan was dressed in a two piece swimsuit with a brightly colored wrap around her hips.
"We were going to see if you guys wanted to hit the pool before dinner." Jordan asked with a grin.
"Looks like at least one of us had fun so far." Duo grinned catching the after-sex glow that Quatre was wearing.
"Lay off Maxwell." Quatre smirked. "Not my fault your boyfriend isn't into quickies."
"Wufei? You and me must be the only ones not thinking about sex." Jordan said softly.
"Well... That's because I respect women." Wufei said with a roll of his eyes.
Wish that Jack would. She thought as she started back down the steps. "Last one to the pool's frozen bear bait!" She called continuing to hobble down the stairs on her wounded leg.
"I'll wake Liz." Lynn said following to go grab her swimsuit.
Duo watched Jordan's lithe frame disappear around the corner. "So... You must have watched her dress."
"No." Wufei said with a small gulp. He had peeked a glimpse by accident.
"You sure about that?" Duo asked as he wrapped an arm around the Chinese man's shoulder. Heero walked on ahead shaking his head.
"Okay, a small glimpse. I didn't mean to though." He said with a blush. Duo laughed.
"The widower's still a virgin isn't he?"
Wufei glared at him. "I am not. And I'm not going to sleep with Jordan unless she wants to."
"She let you see her... I have a feeling that she might." He slipped something into Wufei's hand. "Trust me, you'll thank me later." He grinned and ran off.
Wufei felt the foil package and blushed more. I'm going to kill him. I don't care if Heero kills me later... but I'm going to kill him.
Liz pulled up to the lodge with a yawn. They had heard on the radio after they had passed the bridge and got into the mountains that there was a storm on the other side, basically locking them in the valley where the spring was until crews could clear the road again.
