I had always felt a strong pull to him, since the day my mum brought him home. His name rolled off my tongue so smooth. Ezekiel Gauge, all though, he always tells me just to call him Zeek. On occasion I will listen to him, but not as much as he would like.
His small frame and messy black brown hair and rectangular glasses, made him seem like an odd man. When his walked threw my front door the first night I met him, He was quite tipsy. He told me not to smoke and tried to hug me, even though my mum had warn him I hate being touched. I remember biting my bottom lip as I tried not to laugh at his awkward movements. After a few short month of Zeek dating my mum they got engaged, then married a week later at the court house. They fought many nights, mostly because of their age different. My mum was 42 and he was only 26. My mum had a taste for staying in, but loved the night life.
He would offend go out without my mum, and he would come home on the piss, with a dead phone. That only caused problems between them. After a weeks of his behavior, step father would take me as his back up in a way. He would let me drink even though I was only 18, we would take shots together and split cigarette. He make sure that when men hit on me I wouldn't do anything with them.

Hearing my door creak open without a knock or an 'I'm coming in.' It could only be one person . Zeek, My guess was correct like always.
I looked from my phone, "Yeah, what is it Ezekiel?" I asked with no really concern.
He sat dawn at the end of my bed and fell on to his back "Well, my buddy just called and invited me over to a party, so you wanna come?" He questioned as he rolled on to his side trying to see what I was doing on my phone.
I flipped to my back and sat up crossing my legs, So he couldn't see my phone. "What time does it start?"
"You got till 9:30 to get ready." He stated as he stood up from my pink ruffle comforter.
I nodded as I got up leaving my phone on the bed, "Yeah, I'll go." I told him as I made way in to my closet.
I didn't pay much attention to him as I left the area. Looking up at the clothes hanging on the rails, My black and green corset caught my eye. I was quite cold out, but I assumed we wouldn't be outside much. Moving each hanger a picked a few more articles, which consisted of black short than were rather reveling, a white fishnet top with thigh high to match, and a pair of black pumps. Half way though dressing myself I realized I would need help with lacing up the back of the corset. I peeped my head out of the door and called out for Zeek.
"Zeek, come here I need your help." I said loud enough for him to hear in the other room.
