Yeah. Like that was gonna work.
Nevertheless, she held onto Antigone a bit tighter and said, "Okay just... just try to hop a little and put you weight on me. Whenever you're ready..."
Antigone grimaced and nodded her head at Chloe, but made no effort to move right away. She gripped her lovely shoes tighter and thought about what would be the best way to hop out without making more a freaking fool of herself.

"
Umm... no I am not alright, actually. I twisted my ankle. But I do not wish to bother you, we can get me out of here, I am sure," she said to the lady through gritted teeth. "
Thank you very much though, dear," she added in a sweet voice.

...the blond man could not care less about that. Hehehe. He knew some women was probably not going to like to see him with Helena but that was not his problem. Plus they seemed to be struggling with something. Department head Antigone needed help? Ryan stared at the ceiling, whistled 'I did not see anything' and turned to the woman in his arm ''All right, dear. Where do you want to sit?''
Grrr... big strong man over there not offering to help. BAH! What ever happened to chivalry. It must very well be dead. Hehehe... it's okay, she knew one Division Head that would have a workload of 5 people dumped on his desk when she returned to the Ministry.Yes, indeed.

A crashing sound was heard and immediately he turned his head to find...her. "Oh gosh," Ethan said as he immediately ran to Antigone's side to make sure she was okay.
"You...okay?" His hands immediately found one of her arms, gently caressing her at the base of her elbow while the other held her hand. It was all to help...stabilize her or at least that was his excuse for any and all things. But, the lady Antigone was with beat him to the punch and she was standing. If there was anything, he didn't mind helping her out, he just hoped that she was not going to be hardheaded about the situation, not that she wouldn't but...she was a female and she was very independent.
And there it came... the icing on the bloody cake. Ethan, in front of three other employees of her office. SHe felt her cheeks burn red as he asked if she was okay. She was defeated today... She feebly shook her head and said in a small voice, "
No, I am not okay actually. I am afraid I have sprained the ankle. C-c-c-could you" she swallowed hard, her pride going down with the new formed lump in her throat, "
help me out of here and back to the Ministry... pl-pl-please." She felt two inches tall. She had tried in vain to escape without having to see the man and now he was there, witnessing the scene she had caused.
Typically she would have swatted him away and limped out on her own, but she had no energy left to fight it... She waited for him to help however he meant to... Waited like a frickin damsel in distress. Which, mind you, is not something Antigone was proud of. That's alright though, she had every intention of turning cold once they were out flipping Muggleville. She had no desire to be viewed as a weak helpless woman and this man would never see that again.
