*For Micaela, my horny, sexy, Finnish friend ;)*
Micaela watched as her train pulled into the station. The cold rush of air as it swept by made her shiver. Despite wearing layer upon layer of winter clothes, the ice cold air pierced her body. She rubbed her hands together to try and warm them up, her whole body shaking. She was anxious to escape the cold Finnish winter's night and climb onboard the warm, heated train.
As the train came to a stop, Micaela grabbed her trolley bag and walked along the platform until she found her carriage. She opened the door and struggled as she hauled her bag up the step and into the carriage. The warmth of the train carriage came as an instant relief to her. She slowly made her way down the narrow corridor, pulling her bag behind her, trying to make as little noise as possible in case anyone was already asleep. She found her cabin and stepped inside, eagerly anticipating warm blankets and some much needed sleep.
The sleeper cabin was small and basic, but it would be more than adequate for the 11 hour long overnight journey back home to Helsinki. There were two bunks made up with white linen. The lower bunk could be converted back to a seating coach if needed. There was also a very small bathroom to the left of the cabin, which just about had room for a shower. A breakfast menu card and amenities kit was centred on the lower bunk. Micaela slid her trolley under the bed and quickly filled out the breakfast card and quickly sifted through the amenities kit. It contained an eye mask, ear plugs and a small toothbrush with an even smaller tube of toothpaste. Micaela went into the bathroom to brush her teeth before changing into her night clothes. She put on some pink pyjama bottoms and a black vest that only went down to just below her breasts. She was too tired to tidy up her clothes so she just left them discarded on the floor. It's not like anyone was going to complain anyway. She'd paid extra to book solo occupancy for the cabin. An added benefit of this was that she could choose either bunk to sleep in. Naturally she listened to her inner child and climbed up the ladder and carefully into the top bunk, just as the the train started to set off into the night. Micaela reached for the light switch and tucked herself in. She instantly fell into a sleep. The sleep, however, did not last for long...
Glen was not having a good day. His flight had been cancelled due to bad weather so he'd had to book onto a sleeper train last minute. He loved travelling, especially by train, but the stress and confusion of rescheduling the itinerary of his entire trip because of the cancelled flight had left him angry and exhausted.
He leapt onto the train as soon as it came to a stop at the platform. He shuffled his way through the tight corridor, cursing and muttering under his breath as his heavy backpack kept snagging against the walls. As if his day couldn't get any worse, Glen was met with a nasty surprise as he found his assigned cabin and turned on the lights. He was met with startled gasps and yells which quickly turned into angry shouts and remarks. "Perkele" and other wonderfully Finnish insults were uttered towards him as he stood in the doorway completely bewildered.
Glen looked at the number on the door and then glanced down at his ticket. He was in the correct cabin right enough. So what were these people doing in it, taking up both the beds? Not being able to speak any Finnish, Glen nervously told the occupants that they were in his cabin. This was greeted by yet more shouting. The conductor heard the commotion and made his way to the cabin, where a shell-shocked Glen tried to explain to him that these people were in the wrong cabin. The conductor checked Glen's ticket before speaking in Finnish to the angry occupants. They produced their tickets to the conductor who instantly had a puzzled look on his face. He seemed to apologise before walking out and closing the door, before turning to Glen in the corridor.
"I'm really sorry sir but it seems that there has been a mix up and we have overbooked this train."
"Well that's your problem, not mine. What am I meant to do now?" Glen asked frustratedly, nodding towards the window and the passing lights outside. "The train's already left, I'm not sleeping on the floor all the way to Helsinki!"
The conductor walked to the end of the corridor and quickly came back bearing a clipboard. "Sir, there is only one cabin with room on the whole train and the person booked it for solo occupancy. We can knock on the door and ask them if they'd be ok with you sleeping in the extra bunk for the night, but if they decline there's not much I can do..."
Glen sighed. He had no choice but to try and convince this person to let him have their spare bunk. It was between that or 11 hours of lying on the floor. He followed the conductor down the train, several carriages down. The conductor stopped and nervously knocked on one of the doors...
Micaela stirred when she heard the sound of knocking. She quickly laid her head back into her pillow and tried to sleep again, dismissing it as just the noise of the train on the tracks. Again, she heard the sound of knocking. This was shortly followed by a man's voice. "Excuse me this. This is the conductor. I'm sorry for the disturbance but may I speak with you please?"
Micaela groaned. What on earth could this be about? Was she in trouble for something? Had she accidentally gone into the wrong cabin? Was there a problem with the train? She sat up and quickly moved to climbed down the ladder from her bunk. "I'm just coming, please give me a moment!" she said in a confused and slightly panicky tone. Micaela didn't want to open the door until she could cover herself up a bit better. She found her sweater and quickly wrapped it around her and buttoned it up. Whilst this covered up her stomach, the shape of her generous breasts were still fairly obvious beneath the material of the sweater. Micaela quickly tried to flatten her hair before nervously breathing in and opening the door slowly.
There stood the conductor with a clipboard in his hand. Micaela looked up at him nervously, barely taking notice of the other man to his right. "Yes, how can I help you?" asked Micaela, trying to look as innocent as she could.
The conductor chose his words careful and looked rather embarrassed as he explained the situation to Micaela. "I'm really sorry to intrude on you like this but there's a mix up with our booking system. This poor man has nowhere to sleep. I know you paid for solo occupancy but your spare bed is the only one available on the train. Would you consider giving up your spare bed? I want to make it absolutely clear to you though, there is no obligation for you to say yes."
Micaela's first reaction was one of anger. This was why she had been woken up? Because someone else wanted her spare bed? When she'd paid extra for solo occupancy of the cabin? Why on earth would she let a stranger she'd never met before sleep in the same cabin as her? Much less a man! Micaela was about to flat out deny the conductor's plea and slam the door in his face when she looked over to his right and saw the man that she could be sharing with. Her heart fluttered. He was short for a man, but nonetheless comfortably taller than her. He had short, dark brown hair and beautiful brown eyes that she couldn't take her eyes off. He was perhaps slightly overweight, but not in a chubby way. He was dressed all in black. A black winter jacket, black trousers, black hiking boots and a black backpack hanging over one of his shoulders. Despite this, he looked unbelievably inviting, at least to Micaela's mind.
Glen watched nervously as he saw the girl look him up and down. Yes, he was nervous about making her feel uncomfortable, about not having anywhere to sleep and about being rejected. But he also felt a nervous excitement whilst looking at her. She was undeniably pretty. She was short and plump, but in a perfect way. Her face instantly drew your attention. Big, beautiful blue/grey eyes the stared at him and touched his soul. Medium length black hair hung down the sides of her face. She also happened to have a body to die for. Perfectly proportioned thighs and nice, plump, generous breasts. Glen was completely awestruck. Before long he found himself gawking at her and quickly shook the look off his face before extending his hand out to her. "Hi, my name's Glen" he said very matter of factly. "Listen, I don't want to pressure you or make you feel uncomfortable in any way shape or form. If you don't want to give me your spare bunk that's fine, I completely understand, and I'd probably do the same in your position. I won't judge you!"
Micaela's head was full of conflicting emotions. As curious as she was, and as transfixed as she was by the sight of this man, she still had to remember that she was young and small, and possibly - no, definitely - naΓ―ve. She had long fantasised and loved the idea of forced proximity. It was a scenario she often played in her mind. But would she be up for it in the real world? With a complete stranger no less? Her curiosity won and without even realising she shook Glen's hand and introduced herself to him, struggling to maintain eye contact and trying - and failing - to hide the mischievous smirk on her face. "I'm Micaela" she said. "I'd feel terrible if you had to sleep on the floor of the corridor because of me. You can have the spare bunk. It is only one night after all..."
