When the stars align

1

I have the same schedule everyday. Wake up, take a shower, brush my teeth, eat, try to come up with a new song, eat, brush my teeth, sleep and repeat. My days were getting boring with nothing much to them, except for today. I had the most interesting day ever.

I was trying so hard to write a song. But i just cant get it right. I was so frustrated and kept wasting paper one by one. Each piece of paper was useless. I spent hours trying to write the perfect song yet it was futile.

Eventually, I gave up and went to go take a shower.

I was about to step into the shower but before that happened, I heard something. It sounded like, someone was trying to unlock the door. Was someone trying to break in?!

I grabbed something to put on quickly and grabbed the closest thing that could be considered a weapon and slowly crept over to the door. I was holding a book and i was not afraid to use it. Whoever was behind that door was struggling.

I could tell.

I had made my way to the door and i needed to prepare myself for what was to come.

I opened the door and the next thing I know I'm on the ground with a person on me. I freaked out and screamed. It wasn't very loud since this girl was on top of me. But who was she?

"Get off of me!" I screamed.

The girl had a startled and sorry look on her face and quickly got off of me. "I'm so sorry! I thought this was my new apartment. 108?" the girl stated.

" Yea this is 108 B. You must be looking for 408 C?" I questioned.

"Oh! that was my bad! I didn't notice there was a number after it. So sorry I bothered you!" She replied, "I'm Iris by the way!" she exclaimed while holding out her hand.

"Arlo." I replied, taking her hand and shaking it.

She had really soft skin, and... she was beautiful. She had long brown hair and emerald green eyes.

"Well I must be on my way, it's getting late and I don't want to be bringing in boxes in the dark." Iris laughed,

"Here, let me help you!" I was about to walk out when she stopped me. "I think you should look at yourself before doing that," she said, laughing.

I looked down and I understood what she meant. I was in my boxers and a plain, black t-shirt. I started to grow red and quickly excused myself to go put some shorts on.

I grabbed some random shorts and when I came back to the door, she was gone.

"I guess she doesnt need my help." I whispered to myself and went back inside.

I couldnt stop thinking about her.

Thoughts like,

"Is she ok?"

"I hope she got her stuff all in her apartment"

were racing through my mind.
