My first thought when I woke up was "Where the hell am I?" It was immediately obvious, as I tried to stand; that I was drunk... had probably passed out... so the logical answer to my question was that I must be at a party... Because if I'd gotten passing out drunk at home, I'd recognize the surroundings, right?
So, party. That part was easy, but I didn't remember going to a party, and I didn't recognize the place I'd woken up in. It was kind of quiet, pretty dark outside the one window I could see. I didn't have my phone on me so I couldn't check the time... and as I looked for the phone, I noticed I wasn't wearing much of anything. Okay, maybe I'd come to the party with someone.
I am a master of deductive reasoning, you see? A real Sherlock Holmes. Course, anyone could assume from the tiny little slip of a dress I was wearing, with nothing beneath, was meant to attract attention... and since I wasn't normally the kind to prowl about looking for a good time, it made sense to assume I'd had someone specific in mind.
I just couldn't remember who... Which made it all the more annoying that I didn't recognize or remember anything about the place I'd ended up in? Well, whatever. If it was important, they'd come looking for me. What I needed now was to explore. Why? Well, what else would you do in this situation?
So I figured if it was a party, there'd be music... but it was pretty quiet. Seemed to be a big house, maybe frat house or something, but I'd have expected more drunken idiots wandering around like castoffs from a zombie film...but there was just me... shuffling along...
I wandered up a staircase, and was about to wander down again, and outside in search of my car... figuring if I'd left it unlocked I could sleep inside until I woke up more sober and could ask someone where I was... That's when I heard music, low, and a voice softly singing along... Either I was just out of range, or it was a song I didn't know...
The latter turned out to be the case, as I found myself standing before a door that was slightly ajar, some light spilling out into the hallway. The voice was male, very low... One of those sexy mournful kinds of songs.
He was sitting on a bed, his back to the wall. The room had two lights... One of them from the computer monitor, and the other from a lamp beside the bed, shining directly down over him. He had a guitar in his lap, bare legs sticking out from beneath. A notebook beside him looked like notes had been scribbled in it, some of the words he was singing... Looked like he was writing something new...
Only, not quite... Because as I pushed open the door, fully intending to ask him where I was... I couldn't help but notice that aside from his bright red t-shirt and sunglasses... he was naked... His hard on was pressed against the back of the guitar; I could almost feel the vibrations that would be running over him with every thrum of the guitar strings.
Was I shocked? Appalled? Aroused? I couldn't tell, not really... I was too busy staring, open mouthed... and I couldn't quite be sure I wasn't drooling on top of all the confusion.
He looked up at me, or seemed to... I couldn't quite tell whether he actually saw me from behind the sunglasses, or if I was hidden in the shadows of the hallway. Slowly he moved the guitar aside, resting it near the foot of the bed as he stretched out, propped up against some pillows that provided padding against the wall... He tilted the shade of the lamp so that it dimmed the light in the room a bit.
