The Florida rain was beating down as I pulled up to the hotel. I got out of my rented Chrysler and was immediately soaked by the sudden thunderstorm. Oh well, I thought. Can’t say I wasn’t expecting some good old Florida downpours. I mean, I had just arrived her from England, and it rains all the time there. But not like this. Not with such ferocity, and the rain isn’t so warm either. I mean, here in Florida, the rain is nice. Anyway, I climbed out of my car and ran around to the back, opening it with my keys. I pulled out my two suitcases and placed them on the rain-drenched car park, before closing the boot and locking the car. Wouldn’t do to have it stolen. I picked up my luggage and dashed for the lobby of the hotel, relieved when the warmth hit me as I stepped in. I could almost see the steam rising off me.
I turned and looked outside, seeing the grout gouts of water being thrown up by passing cars, ricocheting off windscreens and rolling down frames. Some tourists were running through it, trying to reach the hotel lobby, their drenched ponchos gleaming bright yellow. The words "Universal Studios" had been blurred by the onslaught. I held the door open for them as they entered. They said thanks and nodded to the reception staff, before heading to the lift and disappearing. I let the door close before picking up my luggage and walking over to reception, setting the two suitcases down and shuddering with cold.
"Brrrrr," I said jokingly to the receptionist. She smiled back. I looked her over as she typed something on the computer. Her nametag said Lucinda Cromwell. She had long, blonde hair. It was the golden type and tied in a ponytail. Her face was flawless, with high cheekbones and a small mouth with full, red lips. She wore a pair of black glasses that actually made her very attractive. She looked like she had a nice rack. Looked like a 30DD cup to me. Nice and large.
"What can I do for ya’?" she replied, looking up. I quickly diverted my eyes, so as not to let her know I had been looking her over, but not quick enough, she saw me.
"Em...I’m a Mr. James Reynolds, I believe I have a booking for an apartment here." She looked at me and then looked at the computer screen, typing in something.
"And you said your name was Reynolds?"
"Yes," I replied.
"OK, James Reynolds... yep, we’ve got you here. Here’s your key, Room 101, just..."
"Room 101? Isn’t that where they conduct all the torture?" I asked jokingly.
"You’ve read 1984? My God. No one except me has read that book. What did you think of it?" she replied.
"It was alright," I told her. "Bit depressing though."
"I agree. Anyway, back to the point. It’s one floor up, on the left. Do you want me to show you?"
"Yes," I said, hoping to get a nice view of her ass as we walked.
She stood up and stepped out of her booth, another receptionist coming to take her place.
"Oh," she said, turning to look at me. "Looks like my shift is over anyway."
She turned and walked away from me as I picked up my luggage and followed her to the lift. She had an amazing ass. Tight cheeks, and it swayed rhythmically as she walked. She pressed the lift button and waited. Now I saw her standing up she was about 5’10". Quite tall. I was 6 foot, so she wasn’t much shorter. When the lift arrived she stepped in, and held the door open for me. I waited and the lift took us up one floor, before I stepped out and saw my room number. I walked towards it and waited as she opened it with the key.
"Right, here you are Mr. Reynolds."
"Thanks," I replied.
"Ok, your mini-bar is over here, the pricing plan inside. I’ll just check... yep, they all seem to be in there. Your TV is over there, with 15 channels. 3 of them are pure sports, I’m sure you’ll be glad to know. The bedroom is through there, with a king-size bed, but quite what you’ll be doing on a bed that big is beyond me."
I smiled at this and she turned to face me.
"Well that’s the guided tour over and done with, I better get back to my post."
"I thought you were off-duty," I asked.
