There was nothing important about today. Bleak sky's, cool wind, no plans. To try and kill some of the boredom, I decided to take a walk. I laugh at myself now, "Why the hell did I think a walk is a good idea," gripping my coat closer around my body, a shiver climbing up my spine, " it's to damn cold for me to even enjoy it." I snuggle my head a little further into my coat, keeping my head down. Not looking where I'm going, I bump into someone.
???- "Hey! Watch where your going. You might bump into some bad habits!"
I look up in surprise, I definitely didn't expect anyone else to be out in this cold, dreary weather. In front of me I see a kind of short, brunette man with a hat on. The hat has what looks like a car and the words "Death Proof" on it. He looks rather sleep deprived, but he's wearing a smirk nonetheless.
Y/N - "I- Im sorry, I didn't expect anyone else to be out in this shitty weather..."
??? - Nah, it's okay. Just watch we're your going next time, alright little Rabbit?"
The man smirks and winks at me, then he walks past, disappearing as fast as he appeared.  Blinking the confusion away, I continue my walk.

I decided to head back towards home after I made a bit of a fool of myself, I didn't want to accidentally bump into him again. As I'm turning toward my house, I think I hear quiet footsteps behind me. I glance back but see no one. "Maybe it's just in my head, I can't seem to get that man out of it..." I mutter to myself. Regardless I quicken my pace slightly. I wasn't about to get robbed.

I unlock my door and step inside my apartment. It's quiet, I guess the guy next door is out right now. I remember the day he first moved in. Lots of yelling and cursing. He's been here for about two years now, I've never once seen him. At one point it sounded like he had a YouTube channel or something, making logs of how long he's been here. I couldn't hear much, only a name and some numbers occasionally. I think his name is Vincent? Or Vinny?? I'm not sure but I won't bother him, his yelling makes me a bit uncomfortable. I shed my coat and lay it on the arm of my couch. Thankful for the warmth of my small apartment. I stretch and look around, the place is kind of a mess. I stride across the living space and open the shades, jumping back when I look down at the street. That guy... he's standing outside the complex!! I watch him, he's just standing there, looking at the building. He has his hands in his pockets, a wicked smile on his face. For some reason, I feel my stomach drop, but in a good way. I can feel a bit of heat rise to my cheeks, but I push it down. I have no idea who he is, or why he's outside my apartment complex. Suddenly, his face darts toward my window. Our eyes lock for a split second before I duck out of the way. A mix of fear and intrigue fill my body. I carefully peek out of the window, but there's no one there. He's gone. I breathe a sigh of relief, maybe it was just my imagination. Shaking the residual fear from my head, I start cleaning up a little. Suddenly, my buzzer for the front door of the complex goes off. I walk over to the speaker, wondering who it could be.

Y/N - "Hello? Who is it??"

??? - "Hello Rabbit."
