It was a small fire, really. Daniela should have known that the bellhop who called it in was just fooling around and would have it out by the time she arrived. But crafty and quick as the woman was, she had fallen for this one and had also managed to involve one of the ship's firefighters, who had responded to the call as though the entire ship had gone up. Now she stood peering into the smoldering wastepaper basket, looking for sparks or any sign that the young man in the fireman's uniform might actually need to do something.
"I'm sorry," she told him. "If I'd known this kid was a pathological liar, I never would have made you come all the way here." She glanced over to where Dean Harper, the bell captain, was chewing out his employee and shrugged. "If you need someone to blame when you report back, you can use my name. It's Daniela Toriano." She turned away from the wastepaper basket, satisfied that it really was just smoking and no longer on fire. "Need me to spell it for you or anything? I'm really sorry."
