-----------------------Josh's POV ------------------
The keypad beeped as I started entering the door code to my apartment building, opening to the lobby. I walked into the foyer feeling like a child. I was still wearing Ed's t-shirt that draped over me, trailing about halfway down my thighs. I thought about stopping to get my mail but wanted to get back to my apartment as quickly as possible.
I started jogging up the stairs hoping no one would notice me. Unfortunately, that wasn't the case.
I turned the corner and saw Mark my neighbour open the door, dressed to go on a run.
"Why did it have to be him."
I felt my cheeks start to flush. I had hung out with him and his girlfriend a few times and there was one undeniable thing about him. He was fucking hot.
Chiselled cheekbones, jet black hair, green soulful eyes. I had a crush on him ever since I met him. And now, here I was, dressed like someone having a crisis after a breakup.
He saw me, unhooking his earbuds. "Hi Josh -- shit, didn't take you for a Metallica fan."
I hadn't even focussed on the pattern, feeling swamped in this t-shirt about 2 sizes too big. "I'm not, the man who had me wait naked and, before fucking me in the shower lent it to me." I thought.
I settled for an easier lie. "Yeah, I love them."
"Oh cool, we'll have to listen sometime -- I'm a big metalhead," He grinned at me, putting his earbuds back in "Anyway, catch you later." As he dashed past me down the stairs.
Sighing, I got to my door, opening my apartment and throwing my bag onto the sofa, collapsing beside it. I rubbed my eyes, I was sore and tired from the gym, and still shocked at myself. I couldn't believe I had just waited for him in that shower, couldn't believe I had done that, that I wanted to do that, that I wanted to do it again. I had spent my whole life being safe. Good grades, straight into uni, straight to a good boring job.
