You thought you were alone.
As you walked down the dark streets back to your apartment building in the chilly autumn night, you thought you were safe. As your uncomfortable stilettos clicked along the sidewalk, you reflected on your night.
Your friend had set you up on a date, whom she swore would be perfect for you. She told you that he was the tall dark and handsome man of your dreams, because she knew you so well. Not even she truly knows you. But you went along with it anyways, looking to at least have something good come out of it, whether it be a long-lasting relationship or a short-term fuck in the bathroom stall. So, you went to that bar, getting there 10 minutes before the set time of 9pm. And you waited those 10 minutes, which then turned into 20, which then turned into 10pm. You texted your friend, asking what the hell was up but she was just as upset as you. So you left, sweeping up your purse from the bar and walking down the street, briskly walking those 3 blocks that it took to get to your apartment.
Of course you were upset. Of course you didn't notice those footsteps that had been trailing you since you left the bar. But it's completely understandable. Eventually, as you thought about how cold it was out for a late October night, you finally heard something. A rustle of a trash bag, blowing in the wind directly in front of you. The noise startled you, made you get out of your occupied head. Now you were paying attention.
I saw the moment that you flinched, pausing in the middle of the sidewalk. I stopped too, roughly 30 feet behind you, but I kept staring at your hair billowing in the wind, along with that too-short dress for such a cold evening. It made my heart beat just that much faster. Then you continued walking, but you looked wary. I saw your head moving from side to side a few times, observing your surroundings, but you never looked back. As we approached your apartment, I saw your footsteps quicken, stilettos clicking even louder. When you reach the steps of your apartment, you finally turn around.
I can see your face reflected in the streetlamps, worry crossing your features. You didn't realize, all this time, that I was getting even closer to you. At this point, I was about to put my hand on the railing to your right, but your startled body language said that you had other ideas. Quickly, you fumbled for your keys, thinking that you would actually be able to unlock, open, and close your front door before I reached you. Well, you were wrong, but I appreciate the effort.
You manage to unlock the door and twist it open, but by opening the door you stepped back, right into my chest. I put my hand around your mouth before you can scream, open the door fully with my other hand, and push you inside. I push you forward, enough to make you almost lose balance in those ridiculous and sexy heels, and proceed to shut and lock the door behind us. You fumble with your shoes, attempting to run into the nearest room, the bathroom. You make it through the doorway, about to put your hand on the wooden door in an attempt to close it.
This is the point where I finally catch up to you. I grasp one of my hands in your long hair, the other bringing your torso towards my chest. I kick the door shut behind us, and my hands begin to move of their own accord. I had simply planned to follow you into your bedroom, tie you to the bed, and make sweet love to you, but no. You had to go and ruin my plans. I will make you regret that, by the way.
