I sat in the backseat of my parents black Fiat Strada, I had my headphones straddled around my head. Those same headphones were blocking out the fighting and bickering, like it had done so many other nights.
I leaned my head up to the cold glass window, every once in a while we would pass by a building or two, I felt like we were in a never ending cycle.
Street lamp, nothing, gas station, and so on.
The moon shined brighter tonight, it was full and sparkled in the midnight sky. It lit up a decent amount so the street poles were just bonus points. But just like always, the clouds covered the bright circle, the man nor the moon was visible.
It was snowing, and the roads were icy. Making it difficult to sleep with all of the swerving and random stops. But eventually, we ended up in the parking lot of a decaying building.
It had red bricks and green accents, the 5th floor seemed a lot more dead than all the others.
My mother turned around and pulled off my headphones, putting a tacky beanie on my head, big pompom and all.
"Alright sweetie, grab your stuff!" She said, smiling. My dad had already exited the car.
Mom fiddled with her jacket pockets, pulling out a golden key, taking my palm and putting it in the center, closing my fingers inwards.
I presented a smile, it fading into annoyance as she exited the car.
I grabbed my fake leather cross body bag filled what basic things that i could use until i wanted to bring up my other belongings.
I stepped out of the car, there were about 4 inches of snow, making my socks wet.
Worst. Feeling.
I closed the door slowly, cringing at the feeling. Cold shot up into my legs and a walked to the front door, entering.
I was presented by manila-like colored carpet, partnered with brown walls. I noticed a bulletin board next to a collection of mail boxes. I ignored it and headed to the 4th floor, right below the scarier part of the building, from my view.
I hated elevators, no real reason. I was just afraid i would get stuck on one and die.
It made it worse that this one did not have an emergency button.
'I'm going to get stuck. Then I'll die. I'm still a virgin. I cant die y-'
my thoughts were interrupted by the sound of the elevator door DING, announcing i had arrived to my destination.
I exited the doors and headed to my unit. I inserted the key, yet it would not budge.
Just then I heard the elevator door ding once again. I ignored it, giving a quick glance over. Two.. girls? Boys? People? I couldn't tell.
One of then had a white face, or a mask. And blue hair, the other had long brown hair. Big height difference.
I was a bit surprised to see them, as how late it was, 1am or at least around that time.
I head walking growing closer. I shot up and turned in their direction.
The boy with blue hair stood in front of me. We were around the same height.
"Need help?" He asked, referring to the key halfway in the lock and the other half sticking out.
"Yeah, I guess." I said, making room for him to do whatever he was gonna do.
He used a bobby pin that was inside the pockets of his red ripped jeans, pulling out the ke and inserting the pin instead. Within a matter of seconds it seemed to unlock.
He turned back in my direction and handed me the key.
"These locks can be real stubborn." He said, laughing a bit.
This might sound weird but like, his laugh was so hot.
I smiled and thanked him before he returned with his friend.
As he went into a unit across the hall, i entered mine.
I was presented by a mediocre space. I entered, closing the door behind me. I rushed to where my room would be. It was also pretty painful to look at, but i bet i could put a dent in that whole "Creepy haunted apartment" vibe.
I placed down my bag and took out a blanket and a very small pillow, it was too late to get the stuff from the moving truck and the car. So i just laid on the floor.
I did not like the idea, what if there were cockroaches? Or rats?
I tried calming myself down and headed to bed for the night.
