lulu

               i wallowed in the water, my drenched clothes stuck fast to my skin and weighing me down. i haven't slept, only laid in this tub of cold water that was once warm. i felt terrible, my head throbbing and my body felt like shit.

               jack. he was the one person i've gotten so close to, now ripped away from me like that. does the world want me alone? a lone girl belonging to no one. yeah, he was older, in his twenties while i was a simple seventeen, but he was someone who cared.

               but, maybe he didn't care. he had no business associating with a troublesome seventeen year old girl who just wants to be alone.

              i didn't deserve him, especially how i treated him before. i was impulsive, rude, and a little shit to be honest. and there was no one to pin it on but me. i slide down, feeling my self-worth lowering, in the water. i let the water cover my mouth, debating on my actions. no, not now.

              i surface back up, realizing i had a visitor. "hey charlie." i say, glancing down at the tiny cat, it's once pure white fur now dingy and wet. "i guess it's raining."

              charlie was a cat that pops up around sometimes. she already had an owner, the collar tag obviously new and she was always pampered well. but, on the days she left, she came straight to me and leave after awhile. 

               she was such a beautiful cat, and she envied her owner. "let's get you home, huh?" i stood up, taking all my clothes off then wrapping a towel around myself. i ran to my room, changing into dry clothes. just a black crop top, black jeans, and combat boots. 

               i wrapped charlie in a towel and then tucking her under my leather jacket. somehow, from all the times of looking at the metal tag, i know the address by heart.

               it was only a block down across the street, nothing far. but for the sake of not getting charlie anymore wet, i ran to the a building. when i got there, i pushed the labeled apartment button i was looking for. "who is it?" 

                i press the button, "i have your cat, charlie." in no later than a second, i was buzzed up without another word. 

                 i walk up a flight of stairs, then come face-to-face with apartment door 93 (a/n: halsey reference lol) and knock on it gently. the locks began to click and soon the door was opened and revealed a tall boy with icy blonde hair. 

                 "hello, i'm sorry for the inconvenience, but i came to return your beautiful cat." charlie mewls lowly and i smile as i unwrap her and give her to the boy. he just stares, like in some sort of trance. "sir?" he snaps out of it, setting charlie down to run into the apartment.

                  "no inconvenience, thank you so much..?" he trails, asking for my name in the pause.

                   "it's lulu."  i say, smiling. 

                    "lulu, that's a pretty name. i'm sam. um, may i ask, where did you find her? she does this a lot, but manages to return right back here." he says. i bite my lip, iffy if i should tell him. "well, charlie has been coming to where i stay. and, i just been spending time with her and then she leaves. i just never thought about actually returning her personally. i guess i needed a friend or something like that."

                    he smiles, "well thanks for doing it today. um, you can come in if you want? it's raining and i wouldn't want a pretty lady like yourself getting sick." 

                     i shake my head, "no thank you. i have things to do, maybe next time?" 

                     "ok, next time." he says and i smile at him before bidding a goodbye.
