Speeding down the road what felt like ages was only minutes as Julian finally slowed down into a parking lot behind an apartment building. Violet slowly lifted her head up realizing the rain had let up to a soft drizzle. Getting off the bike she removed the helmet, handing it back to him.
"Where are we?" she inquired.
Julian gave her a small smile as he removed his helmet, "The apartment building I live in. Since you don't want to go home and it's past midnight so it's a little late to call a sleepover don't you think?"
Rubbing her arm looking to the ground in hesitation, "Yeah, you have a point."
"Come on, my place is on the second to top floor," he waved his hand for her to follow him inside.
She was hesitant, questioning if she really should, but she had nowhere else to go so she followed him inside. Her body was trembling by the time she got inside.
He searched his keys until he found the right one to unlock the door. With a click the door was opened with Julian inviting her inside. With slow steps she entered the dark apartment that was quickly illuminated by the lights being turned on.
It was a large studio apartment with a section higher up off the floor than the rest where it seemed Julian had made as his bedroom. The rest of the layout was simple. There was a kitchen area with windows gazing out to the town, and a makeshift dining area not far from it. The opposite side of the kitchen area with a little living room set up where Violet took notice of a door. She assume it had to be the bathroom.
"You probably want to get out of those wet clothes before you get sick," Julian suggested to her as he walked over to the bedroom side of the studio.
Going through the dresser, he pulled out an old worn out tee with a few holes and joggers. He handed them to her with a sheepish smile, "You can change over in the bathroom there."
She took the clothes from him looking to the door he pointed too then back to him. Quickly thanking him she went to the bathroom, but stopped and turned back to him, "Do you just want me to leave my clothes here orrrr?"
He laughed at her awkward expression trying to avoid eye contact with him, "You can just leave them, I'll wash and dry them tonight for you."
"Okay," and with that she slipped inside to the privacy of the bathroom.
