What would you do if...
Ok, I had to write a scene in which my 2 main characters (who had just met), get trapped in an elevotor. The secene MUST be re-written. I need help and inspiration here, people.
Picture this: You are trapped in an elevator with a very attractive person. You are single, and it turns out they are to. What would you do? What would you talk about? (Yes, my 2 characters kiss at the end of the scene, but I couldn't just let them jump eachother -well, I could but that would have ruined the mood I am trying to set for them) Any and ALL thoughts are GREATLY appriated!! Even some 'what if?' scenarios would be great. Thank you!!!

Re: What would you do if...
Well, probably I would first try to make some jokes or silly comments about stuck elevators, and then take it from there. Talk is fine, but not quite enough, though.
Maybe one of them is a little fearful of the situation or mildly claustrophobic. Or one is terribly sore from a workout, or running a nasty tension headache. Would make for an interesting scene, with the other trying to comfort. (That could easily lead to a hug and a kiss in the end.)
Hope that helps.
