Apocalypse Rebirth: Beauties Surround Me-Chapter 53: Elijah’s heart fluttered
The three of them quickly arrived outside a guest room.
Katherine opened the door and switched on the lights, inviting them in.
"This is a standard room in our hotel. There's hot water for showering and the air conditioning is also available!"
"Okay, thank you," Elijah politely responded.
"Then, rest well!" Katherine briefly introduced before leaving the room and closing the door behind her.
At this moment, Daisy couldn't contain her excitement.
"Wow! There's air conditioning and hot water, this is too good to be true!"
She bounced around and headed to the bathroom, turning on the tap and letting the water flow.
"There's even a bathtub inside, I'm going to take a bath! It's been so long."
Daisy exclaimed happily, but then she remembered their frugal days when they couldn't afford such luxuries, and she almost felt like crying.
What used to be ordinary amenities before the apocalypse now seemed like extravagant luxuries.
Elijah turned on the air conditioning and casually surveyed the room.
It was called a standard room, but it was quite spacious.
There was a separate small living room with furniture like sofas, coffee tables, and a TV.
The adjacent bedroom was also sizable, with a large double bed where two people could easily roll around.
Next to the bed, there was a large wardrobe for storing clothes.
Apart from the absence of a kitchen and dining area, it was almost indistinguishable from a regular household.
"Is there only one bed? Fiona and the others probably assume that Daisy and I are a normal couple..." Elijah didn't want to find another room or risk exposing that he and Daisy weren't at that stage of their relationship yet.
One room would have to suffice.
The bed was large enough for two people to lie down comfortably.
Elijah then entered the bathroom, where Daisy had already started filling the bathtub with water.
The bathroom was also spacious; otherwise, it wouldn't accommodate a bathtub big enough for two. Inside was the bathtub, with a shower outside.
There was a sliding door that separated the wet and dry areas.
Outside the sliding door was the toilet, which seemed quite advanced, like a smart toilet that didn't require toilet paper and could provide heated cleaning.
A little further out was a sink and a vanity mirror.
"Elijah, get out, I want to take a shower!" Daisy decided to rinse off first before soaking in the tub.
Seeing Elijah looking around, she immediately urged him to leave.
"The bathtub is so big, I think two people can shower together, saving time!"
Elijah chuckled.
"Shower with your girlfriend Fiona! You big jerk!"
Daisy retorted, hands on her hips, giving him a big eye roll.
"Huh? That was a joke! You're my only girlfriend!"
Elijah clarified, knowing there was a difference between a girlfriend and just a woman.
He praised himself for his quick wit.
"Hmm, I don't care, but you lose today's girlfriend privileges!"
Daisy pouted, then pushed Elijah out of the bathroom.
Elijah looked at the closed door, touched his nose, and then turned to open his own backpack, taking out clean clothes.
He took off his dirty jacket and jeans, replacing them with the shorts and T-shirt Daisy had picked out for him, and sat on the edge of the bed, preparing to rest.
At this moment, a blurred figure in the bathroom caught his attention.
Perhaps because their room was a king-size bed, it was likely rented by couples or lovers.
Therefore, the bathroom's glass was frosted, not entirely transparent, but clear enough to see the silhouette inside.
Elijah sat on the bed and saw Daisy slowly undressing.
His blood began to boil. "Who can bear this?" Elijah felt the thoughtful design of the hotel.
"Daisy, do you need help scrubbing your back? It's hard to clean your back by yourself!" Elijah couldn't help but offer.
"Humph! No! Need! To!" Daisy hummed a cheerful tune, rinsed her body quickly, then flatly refused him, and then she lay down in the filled bathtub.
The slightly warm water submerged her body, covering up her infinite beauty.
Daisy let out a satisfied sigh. "So comfortable! I really want to stay in here forever!"
Elijah felt itchy hearing her from outside, but he couldn't do anything about it.
With Daisy lying in the tub, her beautiful figure was no longer visible, and the fire in his heart gradually subsided.
Overwhelmed by exhaustion, Elijah lay down on the bed and soon fell asleep.
After soaking for a while, as the water temperature gradually cooled, Daisy reluctantly got up.
Blowing dry her hair and tidying up, Daisy walked out of the bathroom wearing the same couple outfit from yesterday.
She thought Elijah must be impatiently waiting.
However, when she saw him lying on the bed, already snoring loudly, she was surprised.
"Oh! Is there only one bed?"
It was only now that Daisy realized there was only one bed in the room.
She looked around and finally stood by the sofa, feeling conflicted.
"Um... sleeping on the sofa is also an option... but the bed is much more comfortable!"
"But Elijah has already taken the bed... should I wake him up?"
"No, no, he must be really tired today and needs a good rest!"
"Anyway... anyway, the bed is large! I just need a little space..."
"Let's go with this happy decision!"
After a mental struggle, Daisy was ultimately drawn back to the bedroom by the allure of the large and soft bed.
She lay down on the other side, far from Elijah.
"Ah... the bed is indeed comfortable!"
Daisy thought to herself, unable to resist a yawn, and slowly drifted off to sleep.
Meanwhile, Elijah had a dream! In the dream, he successfully entered the bathroom as he wished.
Just as he was about to do something, a woman in the bathroom lifted her leg and kicked him hard.
Then Elijah woke up in pain!
He stared blankly at the ceiling for a while before finally coming to his senses. Turning his head, he saw Daisy's fair and translucent foot resting on him.
It was this foot that had kicked him just now. Looking at Daisy, who was lying diagonally on the bed, occupying three-quarters of the space by herself, Elijah realized that if it weren't for the kick, she would have taken up the entire bed.
"This girl... she's so domineering even in her sleep!" Elijah became increasingly awake and felt refreshed.
Checking the time, it was almost 6 PM, and he had slept for over 8 hours.
With the air conditioning in the room, it wasn't as uncomfortable to wake up as it had been in the past few days.
Still, Elijah struggled to get out of bed, feeling uncomfortable from holding it in for so long!
In the bathroom, Elijah enjoyed the service of the high-tech toilet and quickly rinsed himself in the shower. He immediately felt revitalized.
Returning to the bedroom, Daisy was still sound asleep. He noticed she had changed her sleeping position again.
Her oversized T-shirt was rolled up, revealing her flat stomach. Elijah's heart fluttered. It must be very smooth, right?!
"Speaking of which, I haven't claimed today's girlfriend privilege yet..." Elijah rubbed his hands together and took a few steps forward. "This is..."
