Soft caresses warmed as her high cheekbones were smoothed underneath his fingers, his eyes not being met with hers as he crouched in front of her, the duvet scrunching between their legs as he came closer to her, deciding not to wait for her to look at him, unaware of the bedroom door slowly opening,
"I love you, why won't you let me?"
His voice shaking as his body rattled as he was being pulled away and forced towards the door, stopping at the doorway he held on to both sides tightly, quipping, before being fully pushed outwards,
"WHY WON'T YOU ME LOVE BACK?!"
His friend apologized once last time for him as he tidied the area as he too headed out of the room after him, assuring her that he would lock her door as best he could before she could get herself together to come to do it herself much later.
In the distance, as she heard her front door alarm clink into place and began setting, she could still hear him going on, through her reinforced glass-plated windows, a series of evenly spaced "whys" before a prolonged silence followed by a somewhat distanced, "love me back, baby," quickly followed up with an eerie confirmation that chilled her spine, and ravaged her already shake disposition,
"THIS AIN'T OVER"
