"Here is your room key."
I took my key from the hotel clerk and smiled politely at him, "Thanks." and he smiles back, "You seem pretty young to be out this late all by yourself, where's your parents?"
I jingled the keys nervously on my index finger, my eyes lowering at the burgundy colored carpet. A small grin formed on my lips as I tired to think of a response.
"I don't need my mommy and daddy everywhere I go, I'm eighteen so I have the right to go places without parental guidance." I reply sternly, as I adjusted my bag over my shoulder.
He grins, "Good to know."
I glare at his name tag then back at his face, he looked like he was in his late twenties. I was far beyond exhausted and didn't want to deal with him tonight.
I leaned forward against the counter, as his eyes lowered down at me. And the clerk leans down in front of me, grinning at me.
He was purposely trying to tempt me and he knew it was working.
"Listen Joseph, I don't know what kind of game you think you're running here but I'm not interested," I paused slowly at the sound of the door opening. I continued to lean against the counter, staring at the clerk as I heard footsteps approaching me from behind.
Joseph cleared his throat and quickly stood up, staring behind me. I assumed who ever came in was another customer and they weren't here to use the vending machine.
I continued to stare at him, speaking lower than before, "As long as I'm staying in this run downed piece motel, you better stay far away from me as possible." I warn, as I stand up straight and turn around to leave.
As soon as I turn around a brunette boy around my age glares at me, then moves towards the clerk. I barley got a good look at his face but I didn't think to heavily on him, as I pushed open the door and left.
I pulled out my last pack of cigarettes and lite it while I began walking through the parking lot and towards the motel rooms.
There was a couple making out against his car, gouging their tongues down each other's throats.
I would have shouted that they get a room but I was hundred percent sure they were already going too.
I ignored the aggressive couple making out and climbed up the stairs, towards the third floor. As I moved my cigarette from my lips, three floors down I saw the boy with brunette leaving the motel.
He glared around the parking lot for a few seconds, as he held a room key in his hands. I continued to walk down the open hall until I found room 96, I glared over the banister and watched the boy approach the couple at the car.
He jingled the key at the couple with a grin, I frowned a little as I moved my cigarette to my lips and inhaled.
I leaned against the banister, watching as the couple parted from each other and gave the brunette their attention.
The girl parts from who I assumed was her boyfriend and tried to snatch the keys from the brunette boy. Him and the girl played around for four seconds, before she gave up.
"Holy fucking shit." I whisper, parting my lips as I flipped my cigarette bud upside down, then smushed it on the banister. I laughed, "A fucking threesome, are you shitting me?" and I ran my fingers through my dark hair.
I watched as the three made their way towards the motel rooms, I slowly moved back from banister and went inside my room.
I made sure I locked the door behind me and tossed my bag on the bed. My eyes wandered around the floral printed walls, which made me feel the need to gag in disgust. I hated motels that had the worst floral print wall paper imaginable, or in this case if they had any floral print. Why couldn't hotels just have a simple basic color like green or perhaps something far more basic like white.
I ignored my disapproval of the wall paper and sat down on my bed. It wasn't so bad for a shitty motel, everything looked pretty clean. The motel even had the nerve to have a forty two flat screen tv.
I lifted my right leg up and placed it across my left one, slowly pulling off my combat boots. I sat in the empty room feeling even more alone due to the silence, there was no way in hell I was going to sit around moping. So I put my boot back on, grabbed my key and left my room.
As I locked my room door and walked along the side of the motel rooms, the threesome bangers came walking towards me.
I didn't pay them any mind because I simply had more important things on my mind. In order to avoid their eyes I pulled out my packet of cigarettes, lighting it and inhaling. The brunette walks past me glaring at me but I look forward and ignored him, as the girl and the second boy play flirtatiously with each other.
As soon as we past by each other, I glare over my shoulder and notice that the brunette is looking back at me as well. I extend my hand out to grab the banister as I'm still staring at him, the brunette continues to stare at me as his friends try to open their motel door.
We didn't smile at each other and I didn't nod my head for him to follow me, we just stared at each other for four seconds before I walked away.
I rushed the down stairs pretty fast, glaring up at the third level and hearing the girl's laugh until it was silenced by a door.
I walked throughout the parking lot and approached the pool. Unfortunately, the gate was locked so I just hopped the fence. After I climbed the fence I walked over towards the pool, slowly taking off my leather jacket and shirt.
I didn't know why that boy was even looking at me but I convinced myself not to care.
At this point in my life I didn't care about the fact that I was basically stripping in public, I didn't care about anything anymore.
Not even my life.
