closed starter for @celestialmuses ⸻ feat. finn & leia
As Finn climbed out of his car he felt the ease of his muscles relaxing, finally free from a busy day. It's been a long week and all he wants to do is unwind with a glass of wine he's been saving in his apartment and not think about the stack of cases waiting for him back at work. As he grabbed his work bag from the back seat he glanced up and saw his neighbor also walking into the building. Finn doesn't like to hate people, mostly because others are usually not worth his time, but Leia is a different story. She has always managed to get under his skin and in return he has made sure to make her life a living hell for as long as she lives here. He climbed up the stairs and walked through the main lobby, giving a half wave to the girl sitting behind the admission desk. He always did his best to avoid making eye contact with her, she was always a bit too eager to talk to him and he wasn't in the mood.
His eyes locked on Leia as she entered the elevator and he held up his hand in an act of getting her attention. "Hold the elevator!" He called, picking up his pace and jogging towards her. The doors were sliding closed when he approached the door but he still managed to stop them with his hand so he could get inside. It was just the two of them inside and Finn knew for a fact that she had been pushing the button for the doors to close. What a bitch. Finn reached in front of her, invading her space completely as he pressed the button for his floor. "Next time be a bit quicker closing the elevator, yeah?" He spoke in a condescending tone towards her, something he just does naturally to people he deems beneath him. He is about to throw another insult her way when he hears a loud groan from above and the elevator scream to a halt. Finn braced himself against the wall as the lights flickered and dimmed and he let out his own grown. "You've got to be fucking kidding me." He didn't know what was worse, that this was happening on a friday night right after work, or that is was happening with his least liked neighbor.
