Ashya flashed him a wide smile, not mentioning that this wasn't her first attempt at getting inside the storeroom, just the first one with an accomplice. She was tempted to tickle or at least poke Loïc while he was so vulnerably pressed against the wall, but she didn't want him to refuse to help her after that. "Here goes," the girl said, and turned the key, meeting with no resistance, and the door swung open.
Ashya stared for a few seconds into the gloom within, amazed to think that it had been this simple all along, before grabbing Loic's arm and dragging him inside before they could be discovered. She leaned against the door and it clicked shut, plunging them into absolute darkness.
She sighed happily, feeling a rush of adrenaline and the anticipation peaking. "I'll love you forever...now, don't break anything," she whispered, although it was less likely they would be heard now. Cautiously she lifted her hand and willed a few flames into existence around her hand again. What a handy trick this had turned out to be.
The dim glow cast the room, or the little that could be seen of it, into shadowy relief. She ignored the items she could see - no one would put the interesting stuff right at the entrance, and headed directly for the back. "Let's see what they've been hiding here all this time," she said, holding her hand high and giving Loïc no choice but to follow her unless he wanted to remain in the dark or find an alternate means of illumination.
