‘Roxy…?’ I called out as I cautiously knocked on the first door. ‘Roxy?’
I was just about to leave when a bleary-eyed woman opened it. A woman who wasn’t Roxy. She looked me up and down with disgust.
‘Who are you?’ At least she spoke English. ‘Bob, why is there a naked woman at our door at four in the morning? I thought we talked about this…’ She scowled.
‘Sorry…I’m so sorry. I’ve got the wrong room number.’ I rushed off but could hear the woman arguing with him.Oops.I felt bad about waking them up and also being the cause of a domestic, but I needed to find Roxy.
Time to try 214…
Please let this be her room, I said, crossing my legs. It was bad enough being almost naked. I didn’t want to make the situation worse by wetting myself.
‘Well,hello there…’ said a creepy-looking man dressed only in Y-fronts. He licked his lips.Gross.
‘Sorry…’ I ran off again. This was mortifying.
Suddenly I spotted a silver tray on the floor outside of a room. If there was a napkin on there, I could use it to try and cover my top half and then I could hide my stomach with my arms.
Yes! I was in luck.
I bent down to pick it up.
‘Is that you, Soph?’ I spun around to see Roxy and Geli stumbling down the hallway arm in arm. ‘Thought I recognised that arse,’ she cackled.
‘God, am I glad to see you!’ I jumped up and ran towards her.
‘Steady!Crikey, there must be something in the air tonight as I seem to be attracting alotof love from the ladies.’ She laughed again.
‘What happened?’ said Geli. She was also wasted, but was slightly more upright than Roxy.
‘Locked myself out by mistake. Can I come to your room, Roxy, and borrow some clothes so I can go to reception and get a key? I can’t let anyone see my horrible body.’
‘Horrible?’ said Geli. ‘Why do you say it is horrible? You are beautiful. If I had body like yours I would not wear any clothes.’
‘Yeah, Soph,’ slurred Roxy. ‘What’s wrong?’
‘Look at this…and this,’ I said, pointing to my stretch marks, my saggy stomach and wobbly thighs. ‘It’s a mess. I’ve let myself go and I need to sort it out. But anyway, can we go to your room now, please? Before anyone else sees me? And before I wet myself?’
‘Sure.’ Roxy fumbled in her bag and then pulled out the keycard. ‘It’s room 241. Here.’ She whipped off her red vest top and handed it to me. She was now just in her bra. ‘I’m not bothered about showing my body. You shouldn’t be either, but if you feel better covering up, then take it and go on ahead to my room. When you get to the end of the corridor, turn left.’
‘Thanks!’ I said, grabbing the vest from her hands, turning my back to Roxy and Geli, facing the wall so they couldn’t see my breasts, then slipping it over my head.
I knew Roxy was right. I shouldn’t be ashamed, but I couldn’t help it. I’d lost my body confidence. Maybe one day I’d get it back, but for now, it was best all round if I kept myself covered up.
