WITH YOU | KSJ

TEN

The stillness of my empty apartment consumes me as I drop my purse and kick my heels off, falling backwards on my fluffy bed.

I stare at my ceiling and sigh. Im exhausted. Work was weird, but It still always gets the best of me and I don't know, seeing him again kind of reminds me of somewhat happier times. The feeling we shared that night because of our drunken mess felt so exciting and real.

Maybe the sex was great.. I think. I don't really remember how exactly "it" went down but maybe my body does and that's why I still feel so attracted to him but I don't really think it was the sex that made me keep thinking of him so much after that night but then again, I really have no other clue.

I clench my eyes closed and I try to remember more of our time together again.

Slight glimpses appear but never a full picture. Was I even wearing matching underwear that night?

Reaching for my phone and scrolling through my timeline, I land on a post for a lingerie sale happening near me. I scroll through their page and notice it's a sex store. How ironic.

I would come to those kinds of stores a lot when I was in college and you know, into stuff like that.
The outfits, the toys, it was all so much fun then but, It's not really what I do anymore.

The going to different clubs and parties was my favorite thing but once I had decided to make a life for myself, I just shut that part of me off I guess.

My eyes feel heavy and the silence of my apartment isn't helping as I start to doze off, finally falling asleep after such a long day.

but for some reason.. I'm falling off a cliff.

I jerk myself awake and pant heavily.

"Seriously? I can't get a good nights sleep either?", I yell at the universe.

I get up off my bed and head to my favorite place, my refrigerator.
to grab a glass of water and a frozen pizza since since I didn't get to eat dinner.

I pop it in the oven and lean on my kitchen counter. I cross my arms and I try to keep my head straight up since I'm still drowsy when I terrifyingly hear a quick sound from right behind me.

"pss"

I suck in a quick breath and turn around quickly, my hands grasping my counter making my knuckles turn white.

"I'm I what's keeping you up seori?", he says.

I gulp and let go of the counter. "What are you doing here.. in my home?", I ask the man.

He takes his suit jacket off, the one he'd been wearing all day and just drops it on the floor. "Well you obviously know why. You want to sleep with me again."

"Wait, what? Who says I want to sleep with you again.", I correct him.

He smirks, "oh well why are we up?"

We?

Oh no, have I gone crazy.

"Yup", he answered.

I scoff. Of course I am.

"Mr. Kim why I'm I dreaming of you in my living room?"

He laughs lightly and comes over around the counter to be directly in front of me.

"I don't know. Shouldn't you know since I'm a figment of your imagination ?", he whispers sarcastically.

I rub my eyes, just in case there's a chance he'll go away.

"Well is there something my conscience wants to tell me or are you just here to torment me?", as if doing it all day in real life wasn't enough.

"Well, to be vague with you, I think you're just horny."
