Amelia rushed into the console, clipping on her name badge and flashing Caleb an apologetic smile. The graveyard shift at a service station wasn't exactly the most glamorous job, but the pay wasn't terrible, and it was quiet. Most shifts she happily puttered about, stocking the chip shelves and reading fan fiction on her phone. But it was a struggle some days to wake in time for her shift.
And then there were days like today, when she had woken up in the middle of a delightful dream, wet and horny. A quick session of self-service had left her wholly unsatisfied. It was like eating fast food when craving a steak dinner with all the sides. It filled the hole, but it wasn't what she wanted.
Amelia sighed many times as she showered, an ache between her legs that couldn't be satisfied. She'd been so focused on her lack of a sex life that by the time she stepped out of the shower she was already late. In her rush, she'd forgotten to put on underwear, leaving the seam of her pants pressing against her in a way that was almost teasing.
"Sorry," she said, signing on. "Traffic you know."
Caleb peered out the window at the empty streets and then glanced at the clock that read twelve fifteen in the morning.
"Sure," he said.
He logged out and as he was slipping on his jacket, Caleb smirked over at her and spoke.
"The serial shitter is back."
Amelia's expectations of an easy night reading fan fiction in the storeroom shattered into a million tiny pieces. Her eyes flicked towards the toilet at the back of the shop. The door had been firmly shut since she arrived five minutes earlier. Who knew how long he'd been there, creating another masterpiece of misery for Amelia to deal with.
"Why did you let him in?" She hissed.
"Why were you fifteen minutes late?" Caleb shrugged.
He let himself out of the console and with another smirk and a small wave, left the shop. Silence filled the space he left, but if she listened hard enough, could she hear devastation coming from the toilet? She waited in trepidation, unable to leave her box of safety and wholly too scared to, even if policy allowed.
Inevitably, it happened. The door opened with an ominous creak and from within, a creature crawled out.
