Thread: Mistake at the Desk (DontxBlinkk and Josu_T)

Kyle Miller stepped off the bus after the long trip up the mountain from the airport. He was looking forward to two weeks of solitude and relaxation away from the stresses of his job and everything else. He'd recently ended a relationship with a woman he worked with and that was adding more awkward moments to his life than he'd really like. He really needed this vacation. He looked around the resort and felt himself relaxing already. The place was covered in snow, but the roads and paths were nicely cleared. It was absolutely beautiful. There was a main lodge building that had the reception area as well as a couple of restaurants and some nice areas with large fireplaces. The upper floors had a number of hotel rooms and suites. A little distance away from the main building were many small cabins. Some had two or more bedrooms, but a few were quite small with just one bedroom. All of the cabins had livingrooms and small kitchens so the people staying in them could be fairly self sufficient. Some of them were quite far from the main little village. There were shops and restaurants stretching toward some other hotels and resorts. Kyle was booked to stay in one of the single bedroom cabins. He had ski passes and tickets to a couple of events that were happening in the first week. He hadn't planned his second week yet. He had plenty of money saved up. He'd been saving for a vacation for two people, but now it was only himself. Because of that he had enough for two weeks and he could do whatever he wanted. If he wanted to ski more he would buy more ski passes. He made his way into the main building and got in line for the reception desk to sign in and find out what cabin he was in. When he got to the desk he smiled and got out his ID and gave his information to the person behind the desk. The receptionist typed into the computer and found his name. They handed back his ID with a smile. After another minute they had the keycard for his cabin and slid it across the counter. Then they asked a very strange question. Will you be needing a second key for your companion? He wondered what they meant by that. He didn't have a companion on this trip. He was alone. He thought about it and wondered if he had marked that there would be two people. He'd been planning the trip before the breakup, but he thought he hadn't made the resort reservation until after. He couldn't really remember and decided to just ignore it. He smiled back at them and shook his head. No, that's alright. Thank you. The receptionist nodded. Ok, your ski passes and tickets are already in your room waiting for you. Enjoy your stay. Kyle thanked them and walked away with his things. He went outside where a resort employee was waiting with a golf cart sort of thing to take him and his bags to his cabin so he wouldn't have to carry them too far. He ran a hand through his short brown hair and let out a happy sigh, his breath showing up in the cold air. His tall, broad frame lifted his bags into the back of the cart and he took a seat and told the driver which cabin he was in. They drove off and he was at his cabin in just a couple of minutes. He got his bags inside and sat on a large, comfortable couch, relaxing and looking at his home for the next two weeks.
