"Hate to sound sleazy,
but tease me,
I don't want it if it's that easy."
- Tupac Shakur****
I slept very badly, as usual. That is nothing new. At least my move from the dirty couch to the bed has made my situation a little more comfortable. Nevertheless, I find myself in pure hell. And the fucking devil is sleeping next to me.
But this night I was not the only one who slept badly, Ashley seemed to have problems as well. She moved around restlessly and mumbled something to herself from time to time, but I didn't understand it. Did she perhaps have nightmares?
The air in the room was stuffy and I had no idea what time it is right now. Probably very early in the morning, which is often the time when I wake up for the first time. And then I can't sleep anymore even if I try it again. I just can't.
I still haven't quite processed yesterday and it will probably take time to do so. Especially since now Ashley will be near me all the time which didn't make it any better. I had now no more free second. The question who Ashely had called yesterday was still buzzing through my head and gave me a headache. Just like the question of who the nameless man is who is chasing me, or rather us.
And the temptation of Ashely lying next to me in her underwear frustrated me even more. I can't trust her and getting any closer to her than I already am is dangerous. Feeling her hot skin with my fingertips almost made me lose control last night.
What if-
All of a sudden something moved next to me. I was lying with my face to the wall and thus with my back to Ashley. The mattress was pushed in more which meant she was approaching me, probably checking to see if I was still asleep. When did she wake up? I pretended I still was asleep, out of curiosity as to what she was up to.
She bent over me, her breath brushing my skin. What was she looking at? She reached over me and in the semi-darkness scanned my junk nightstand, where I had placed my valuables. Then I understood her plan. She was looking for the damn USBs.
I opened my eyes and saw her outline, but her attention was on my valuables. So she didn't even notice how I pulled my hand out from under my blanket and within a fraction of a second grabbed her by her throat and pinned her back on the mattress. "Good morning." I said in a rough morning voice and a half-smirk as I now also held both of her wrists above her head with just one hand, the other still around her throat.
"If every one of my mornings started with a pretty brunette hovering over me in just her underwear, I might be in a better mood on average." I added with my head tilted.
