meet me at midnight.

5.

A:N: Kenny, obviously.

I woke up alone in a strange bed. I shifted and sat up, staring at my surroundings. Last night's events came rushing back to me and took a shaky breath. Where was Josh? I panicked a little, being alone in his room. A piece of paper was on the pillow next to me and I picked it up. He'd left me a note.

'Tried to wake you, little mouse. See you in six hours. Kenny's home, go annoy him for a bit.'

I set the note down and smiled. I got out of bed and looked around. I was in his room.Would it be weird to snoop? Probably. I walked over to a wooden shelf filled with CDs. I picked one up and turned it over in my hand. Who were Mercyful Fate? I set the CD back. Definitely no Taylor Swift here.

I walked back to the bedside table and opened it. I picked up a box and analyzed it. It was a box of condoms. My eyes widened and I put them back. I hadn't touched one since high school when they had us roll them onto bananas. The boys, being mature, filled them with water. I dug through the drawer and pulled out a DVD.

I turned it over in my hand and shoved it back in the drawer when I saw the title and the scantily clad women on the back of the case. My face went red and my hands trembled. What would it feel like to do stuff other than kiss? My mind went to Josh's hand on my thigh and my mind nearly floated into the astral plane.

I shoved the DVD back under the bank correspondences and receipts. Let's just pretend I didn't see that. Guys watched that sort of stuff. I felt thin needles of insecurity pin me. The women in that DVD were really attractive. They were effortlessly pretty with full, lustrous hair and nice figures.

I hadn't grown past 5'0 since I was 16 and my bust had stopped growing at an uninspiring 32b. The girls in my class had all grown and looked pretty. I'd stayed boring. Which begged the question, why did Josh want me?

I shut the drawer and peeked out into the hallway. I heard the sound of the tv from down the hall, meaning Kenny was in the lounge. Maybe I should stay in here and not bother him? But I needed to ring college and explain this whole mess to them and then phone work too.

Kenny might be able to help with that since phone calls gave me anxiety. I walked down the hall and stepped into the lounge. Kenny was playing another game, eyes glued to the screen. I glanced at the screen. His character was wearing a long, black coat and holding a giant ax. The floorboard under my feet creaked and he stopped, turning to look at me and smiling.

"Good mornin' Mrs Josh." He smiled.

"H-hey." I said, raising a hand in a wave.

"Come sit, come sit." He said, motioning for me to walk over.

I walked round the couch and sat down. He unpaused the game and I watched him move the character down a cobbled path. A snarl filled the screen.

"Sounds like werewolves." He said.

"What game is it?" I asked.

"Bloodbourne, same people that made Dark Souls." He replied.

"Oh, I've never played those." I said.

"You should try, here see if you can beat the werewolves." He said.

I accepted the controller and moved the character. I walked into a tomb and the snarls increased. There was nothing in the tomb so I left. Outside I was ambushed by the werewolf. I yelped when it attacked me. My character swung the ax and I killed it.

"Yay, I killed it." I smiled, then yelped when another one leapt at me.

The screen turned black and told me that I had died. Kenny laughed at my shocked expression.
