Danger Days! FrankGerard's POV
There's this wall in my apartment complex that always feels like there is no wall. I can hear everything my neighbor was doing.
And I mean... Everything.
The guy was a douche canoe. He was the worst. Sometimes I even thought he was a hitman, he was that bad. This guy, he was always in a bad mood; always had a bag of chips on his shoulder.
I could hear through this paper thin wall whenever he threw parties, when he was watching Quentin Tarantino movies, I could even hear when he had the hiccups.
I COULD HEAR HIM HAVE THE HICCUPS!
I could also hear when uh... When he would have relations with uh, with all that crap... Y'know...
Sounded like two diseased rhinos hoppin' on a pogostick.
Together.
So tonight, while I was sleeping, I get woken up from what appears to be two velociraptors starting a metal band on a bed frame. So I do something... Something I probably shouldn't have done, but y'know...
I take my shoe and I tap against the wall. And suddenly, they stop. I don't hear anything until...
"Quiet down!" The dude yelled.
What?
Me?
Quiet down?
Wtf dude.
I didn't think my gentle prance of my shoe would interrupt your noise making.
I take my shoe again, and I tap the crap out of that wall.
Tap. Tap. Tap. Tap. Tap.
"I'm gonna beat your face in if you don't stop that tapping!" I suddenly hear the douche canoe yell.
"Yeah, we're sleeping!" I heard another dude yelled.
Wait.
There's...
He's gay?
Woah... Okay.
OKAY. I was sleeping! I know what sleep is!
What you were doing was not sleep!
I'm at the end of my rope right now. So, I do something... Something I probably shouldn't have done...
I get out of bed, pull on some pants and fetch my laptop. I brought it back to bed and looked at the time.
12:46 AM.
Pfft.
I log into my Craigslist account and make an ad. On the ad, I put down this guy's address.
Ads on Craigslist get overlooked all the time! It'll be fine.
Plus... I'm sure I'm not the first person to do something like this. And I probably won't be the last either...
I put my laptop back and climb into bed. By now, all the noise has stopped, so I close my eyes and fall asleep.
The next morning, I wake up and check the time.
5:48 AM.
I get up and get ready for work.
I quickly take a piss, brush my teeth, and then I hop into the shower. After my shower, I pull on my boxers, then my black dress pants, and I put on my salmon colored dress shirt. I tuck my shirt into my pants, fix the cuffs on my sleeves and head into my kitchen to make my lunch for today.
