"Oh my balls.." You thought to yourself as you peered into your new temporary home. It smelled like piss and mold, which was expected because it was the cheapest apartment in the area, and it had the worst reviews. You rolled your suitcase into the room, closing the squeaky door behind you.
Your furniture was already in the apartment, which you had moved into the day before. It wasn't much. The apartment only had three separate rooms. One, the main area which consisted of the kitchen, living room, and "dining area". The other was a lone, small bathroom, which connected to the living room and the only bedroom.
Your furniture surprisingly fits well into the small area, well... it wasn't too surprising since your furniture was quite small. You only had two stools, a very small couch that barely fit you onto it, which was a scam because the box it came in said it could hold three people at least, and last but not least, one of those old TVs that came with its own TV stand connected to it.
It was good enough for one person.
You set your suitcase onto the floor as you crouched to unzip it. You digged around the inside, the contents spilled out the sides, you didn't bother to pick them up. You pulled out your puffy jacket. You were gonna take a quick stroll around your apartment, you didn't get the chance to look around yet.
You put on your comfy jacket and walked out the front door, making sure to lock it. Your feet tapped against the metal steps as you made your way down from the second story that your apartment was residing on.
Making your way out to the sidewalk, your peaceful stroll was stopped abruptly due to the sound of a car honking and skidding on the street.
"WATCH WHERE YOU'RE GOING, ASSHOLE!!" A, clearly, very angry man yelled from his car window, glaring at someone jaywalking.
The jaywalker ran across the sidewalk, towards you, but his eyes, which by the way, were BULGING OUT OF HIS EYE SOCKETS, were still fixated on the car that almost hit him, which it was now driving away. You didn't have time to react and move out of the way, so he ended up bumping into you, which he bounced off of you and fell onto the hard pavement. He yelped in a very high pitched and squeaky voice, he then looked up at you with an unreadable expression.
"Uhhh.. h-hi?" He squeaked, sweat dropped down his pimpled face.
You awkwardly smiled at the guy, trying to be nice and sociable. "Hi, sorry.. about that." You apologized, you extended your hand for him to take. He looked at your hand, then up at your face, then back at your hand. You could tell he was thinking. He hesitantly grabbed your hand, his gloved fingers wrapped around your bare ones. You pulled him up, you expected it to be harder, but this guy was pretty lightweight.
As you let go of his hand, it left a weird.. slimy residue on your hand, which you wiped off discreetly on your leg. When he finally got back on his wobbly legs, he didn't say anything. He just.. stared.. straight into your eyes, his mouth slightly agape, which showed that he was missing a few teeth. You both stood there, staring at each other for a few seconds before you coughed and tried to strike up a conversation. "So uhh.. hi."
Gosh darnnit.
He snapped back to reality and blushed a bit, although you couldn't tell because his skin was already pink. " OH UH .. h-hi there!" He smiled sheepishly at you, slowly turning his head down. "M-My name is Warren... the eagle." You blinked a few times at him. Eagle? You didn't quite understand what he meant by that but you went along with it anyway. "Hi Warren the eagle." You smirked, in a friendly way I swear. "Are you from around here?" You asked. "Y-You don't have to answer that if you don't feel comfortable!" You abruptly stuttered. Warren studied your embarrassed face, trying to figure out if you were being genuine.
"Um.. hello?" This guy liked to stare..
"Oh, yes I a-am, I go to work at the Ok Stop organization that's on XXX XXXXX street." He exclaimed with pride. "No way I'm gonna start working there on Monday." You let out. This was great! You met one of your future coworker's. "We'll be coworkers!"
His face visibly lightened up as his smile got wider. "Wow! That's great!" His insides felt like they were on fire. Wow! Someone is actually being nice to him AND they are going to be his coworker? Finally something good is happening in his sad, lonely life. "W-Wait uhh.. I didn't get your name!" His smile slightly faltered when he came to the realization. You had totally forgotten! "Ah- sorry I forgot! It's Y/N."
.
.
Y/N. Your name played over repeatedly in his brain, making sure to not forget it.
"Welllll.... Can I umm get your number? Since we're going to be coworkers of course." He requested anxiously, internally screaming because of his fear of you saying no.
"Sure!" You accepted, taking your phone out of your pocket.
You exchanged numbers.
"Well it was nice meeti-" you were going to start walking away but Warren quickly grabbed your hand. You looked back at his sweaty face. "I um.. before you go.. I want to ask you.. if maybe we could.. go get a restaurant style meal?" His voice slowly got higher pitched as he continued to speak. Not thinking much of it, you agreed. "Sure! That sounds good, when do you wanna g-" "TODAY." He blurted. Your eyes widened a bit before you stuttered out. "O-Okay-" His grip on your hand hardened unintentionally.
When he realized how hard he was holding your hand, he let go immediately. His face twisted into a horrified expression, fully expecting you to yell at him or give him an unpleasant look.
"You really want that restaurant style meal huh?" You chuckled at him, trying to play off what just happened.. Hopefully his intentions weren't malicious.
