Obsession's Prey

I woke up to the sun hitting my face coming from the big window. I sat up on the couch, my neck and back aching.. I glanced around the dimly lit living room, the golden rays of sunlight casting long shadows across the worn carpet.

With a sigh, I pushed myself to my feet, the stiffness in my muscles protesting with every movement. I made my way to the kitchen, as I flicked on the lights the scene from yesterday came flooding back to me with startling clarity. The sight of the dead raccoon, the nauseating smell of decay, the feeling of helplessness and disgust that had consumed me.

I shuddered at the memory, trying to push it to the back of my mind as I make myself a cup of coffee.

As i'm waiting for my coffee, I feel something furry against my legs. I look down, it's the cat.

"Oh hi." I said while bending down to pet it. I wondered if it was a girl or a boy. The cat purred as I stroked its sleek fur, I turned it around. It's a boy, now i need to find a name for him.

I stood back up, and poured the coffee into my mug. The warmth of the mug soothing my nerves as I took a sip. I grabbed my mug and walked to the stairs, it felt like someone else had been here. I walked into my room, the cat following behind me.

As I was about to hop onto my bed... I stepped in something dry and crusty, I slowly looked down.

Dried cum.

"What the fuck" I shouted, stepping back immediately. The cat started licking the dried semen, "no don't lick that" I whispered pushing him away with my foot.

I picked the cat up and I place it on my bed, I set the mug down on my table and took a deep breath, trying to calm the rising panic within me. My mind raced with questions. Who had been in my room? How did they get in?

With trembling hands, I grabbed a tissue and cautiously cleaned the residue from my foot, trying to avoid touching it any more than necessary. The whole situation felt surreal, like something out of a nightmare.

I went into the bathroom and I disposed of the tissue and washed my hands vigorously. I glanced around my bedroom, searching for any signs of the intruder, but everything appeared exactly as I had left it.

I grabbed another paper towel and wiped the cum off my flooring. I threw it away and sat on my bed.

Maybe it wasnt cum? Maybe it was something else I thought, trying to convince myself that it's something it's not. The cat sat in my lap and I sipped my coffee slowly. I felt so weird, i felt like someone was in my house when I was sleeping last night.

I sighed, then got ready for work.

After my shower, I quickly blow dried and straightened my long black hair. I put on some pink lip shit. I wasnt very good at makeup, and i didnt put a lot on only black eyeliner on my waterlines and a bit of mascara.

I then quickly chose my outfit, black low rise bootcut jeans and a tight button down white blouse. I threw on some jewelry, rings, necklaces. I then put on my doc martens. I grabbed my bag that has all my belongings, I said goodbye to the cat.. still haven't thought of a name for him.

I locked up the house and left.

I got a tour of the place, and they are making me put books where they're supposed to be.

I reach the Horror genre section of the library, It was a small space, Only a couple rows of book, and I had ten books to put away.

As I'm putting away a book, I look over to my right. A good looking guy, he has nice dirty blonde curly hair, many tattoos, silver nose ring, and rings. He had a black hoodie on with baggy black jeans. Simple, I liked that. I decided to go up to him, he seemed like he was looking for something.
