I’m walking again. I have to every night. It’s my mission; my calling. I can’t explain it, can’t describe it, can’t deny it. Can’t deny it. I’m going to find someone tonight. I know it. I find someone every night.
Christy sat alone, at a table in the donut shop. The lights flickered above her, and a stray fly crawled in front of her coffee. She took a long sip, and hoped that she wouldn’t fall asleep at the wheel on the way home. Not that she cared if her life ended or not, but she wasn’t done with her work yet. She imagined the painting she was working on at Jamie’s apartment, or more appropriately, the painting she wanted to make.
The actual work wasn’t going very well. She brushed away strands of her deep red hair away from her nose, and finished the coffee, just as it grew chilly. So much work to do, and it comes out so badly. And what good will it do? Maybe she would win that fifty-dollar prize in the college’s literary magazine. Maybe her art professor would like it. Maybe she’d sell it to some random friend, or a total stranger. All of these things she thought, as she pushed her way out the doors, into the night. For only a second, she felt a twinge of butterflies in her stomach. She thought little of it.
I know it’s one AM. I don’t know how, but I do. I’m in front of some store. I don’t know how I got here. What state am I in? What country? America, I suppose, since everything is in English. And I’ve seen enough British coffee shops to know that this is not one. Canada? Nothing in French. Doesn’t matter. I know someone is here for me. And here she is, walking out. I catch her eyes for just a second.
She thought she saw a man standing on the side of the road, outside the parking lot, out of the corner of her eye. She could feel him, but when she looked over there was nothing. But she could feel a heat rising in her. Not heat from the weather; it was late autumn, and in the dead of night. But a heat none the less. She closed her eyes as she walked and surprised herself by imagining her boyfriend, three hundred miles away at home.
I know she doubts herself. She doesn’t know why she’s majoring in art history. She thinks her work is crap. I cannot judge that. I know she misses her boyfriend. She’s faithful to him. And I’m moved as I learn even more. She hasn’t had sex with him. He fears pregnancy. His parents would disown him if she had an abortion. So he’s being safe. And it’s eating at her. I see she’s torn by her faithfulness. She’s frustrated that she’s saving herself for him. And she’s frustrated that she’s had no opportunities to cheat. I see that she’s not popular with men.
She’s cold sometimes. She appreciates solitude. She does not need to party every night. She likes to work. She’s funny when you know her. And I look at her again, having learned all of these things with but a casual glance, and I find her beautiful. She has long red hair. Her nose is a bit pointed, but distinct. Her eyes are incredible, heavy with sleep but burning with intelligence. Steely glare. A few assorted pimples on her face. She’s wearing a long brown overcoat, and old sneakers. She is ideal to me. I love how she doesn’t really care, but beats herself up for it. I love her confusion. I love how she puts on no airs. She’s so beautiful, so beautiful. So flawed. So beautiful. She deserves so much more.
Christy was halfway to her car, and still thinking about her far away man. She hated how she couldn’t visit him on the weekends. Actually, if she wanted to she could, but she felt no urge to. She also hated how she had no art supplies at her dorm. Damn lack of cash. She stopped for a second. Thought she heard something.
She’s mine tonight. I look into her. I look through her. I give.
In a second, the heat within Christy rose. Like Ecstasy, but with no rush. Pure heat. She stumbled to her car, and couldn’t find the strength to unlock it. She sat on the ground and began to breathe very deeply. She was afraid that she was sick. But then she realized that she was not. She was enjoying the heat. She could feel herself growing tight. She was horny. Hornier than she had ever been before. She shut her eyes and smiled and panted as she began to sweat wildly. Her skin felt good, so hungry for human touch. She imagined her boyfriend slowly stroking her skin with the tips of her fingers, just how she liked it. Just how she wanted him to do all the time.
Was she that loathsome to the touch? Not now. Not now. And when she opened her eyes, she realized that she was actually feeling it, all over her body, under her clothes. The heat was getting to be too much to bear. She stood up and dropped her coat off. She wore a black T-shirt and old baggy jeans. She had to lean up against her car, as the feeling on her skin had intensified with the dropping of her coat. They were kisses now. Dozens of unseen lips kissing every inch of her body, all at the same time. Her eyes shut and she saw countless naked men.
They groaned and growled in pleasure as they kissed her, their hands growing wet as they stroked their dicks. Men’s penises did not look that perfect in real life. All long and lean. Not fat, but like long muscles. Deep and red. They were perfect for her, taking their pleasure from her. She opened her eyes, and the world spun before her.
I see she’s enjoying it. She's grinning her Cheshire grin as her knees buckle beneath her. She’s lost in happiness, pure physical joy. She’s trying to kick her shoes off; they’re still tied and she’s having trouble. I’m happy I found her; she’s cute. I cannot stress the importance of cuteness in a woman. It’s a valuable thing, the gleam of innocence, of trust in her eyes, as you lay on her and devour her, and she does the same to you; the serpent eating its tail.
