Jay carefully checked both ways though the cracked opening. The hallway was silent. He chewed on his lower lip a moment before opening the door the rest of the way. He held the towel in front of him as he stepped out. He shivered a bit. The air-conditioning had to have been turned up high. Also, there was a vent right outside his door that made him shiver. These New Yorkers and their inability to withstand the heat.
He padded quietly down the hall. There were possibly surveillance cameras everywhere, but that didn't matter. Just not running into anyone did. Especially not Roxie or her mom. He made it through the hallways without detection. He slipped out the door and jogged to the outdoor pool.
His towel was tossed on a nearby lounge chair. Jay double checked to make sure the pool cover was off. He checked around one more time before backing away from the edge of the pool. If there was some sort of energy shield over the pool because Stark got fancy, this would suck big time.
Jay streaked across the pavement and jumped. Parts of him that normally dangled bounced along the way until he was airborne. He splashed down bare butt first into the center of the pool.
