This is what happens when I don't drink coffee

What is the appropriate thing to do in a public bathroom when you realise you unknowingly entered the men's section and now you're locked in one of the stalls?
I think the bigger question is, how does somebody, namely me, oh-so-stupidly walks into the men's bathroom without even noticing the urinals? I, honestly, need coffee.

So yeah, here I was. Locked in a men's bathroom stall, utterly helpless. I even left my phone outside with a friend of mine.

I was just about to loose it and go barbarian on the stall door when some dude from the stall next to mine whispered something to me.

"You okay in there bro? I could pass the toilet paper"

I froze, he didn't know I was a girl. He thought I was a dude with digestive issues. I sat there uncomfortably, wondering what possessed someone to break the cardinal rule of keeping their mouths shut during bathroom-time.

After careful consideration, I did the only sane thing possible. I told the guy about my situation...no that did not happen. I took off my heels, stood on the toilet seat and hauled myself up and into the probable hole of plague-infested rats.

One, I've not had this much exercise in about two years now. Two, judging by the smell, maybe the aforementioned rats died and left behind their nasty remains. I don't want to know, I'm just assuming.

I crawled through the hole, hoping against hopes that the hole would lead to an exit soon before I broke my back. I was sure the guy had seen my little ninja act. Sure hope I never meet him again.
I found myself at the exit in the back of the parking lot exactly an eternity later, and thankfully it was isolated.

I'm so good at these ninja stunts, maybe I should take classes...

"Wooh! That was brilliant how you handled that situation Miss"

I snapped my head in the direction of the voice to see a guy leaning against a wall and grinning like he just won the lottery or something.
My face must've given away my shock because the next thing he said confirmed he was the guy who had assumed I had digestion problems.

"What I want to know is, how did you end up in the men's bathroom?" He was seriously onto me.

"Would you please give me a break, it was due to lack of caffeine in my system." It was the truth after all.
He nodded in a knowing manner, stuck both of his hands in his jean's pockets (man, I wish I had pockets in my jeans) and presented my phone and waved it around mockingly.

"How did you get that?!" Uh oh, there wasn't even a passcode or fingerprint identification code set up.

"Your pretty friend left it with me, apparently she really trusted me to wait for you outside the female bathroom while she went to pet some puppies" Typical Anais. Bring dogs in the picture and she'd forget everything.

"Right, So now you can give it back to me" I said, trying to appear nonchalant and keep my tone even.

"Or I can just..." he proceeded to unlock my phone and started typing rapidly. I was not having any of it, not today.

"Give that to me," I reached for it but damn he was tall, a freaking skyscraper. Why, oh why did I have to be so short?

"Awh shorty look what we have here~" I was internally screaming and enraged that a stranger had just called me 'shorty.'

"What do you get from torturing innocent people like me, you sadistic weirdo" I swear I'm innocent...ahem

"Satisfaction"

"Ahhh... 'future boyfriend'" no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no *infinite loop of 'no' ft. 'Nope'*

"Wait what did you just type?" I stare in horror as he typed a message and sent it.

"I just added a bit of spice in your chats, seeing as the most interesting thing you two have talked about is fried chicken," he said then chuckled lightly as he handed me my phone at an agonisingly slow pace.

"See you around, ninja girl" he said and then walked away. I would've kicked him if I wasn't too intent on deleting the texts before it was too late.
To my horror and utter dismay, I assessed the irreversible damage done.

Inbox: Me, Future Boyfriend
Me: Do you wanna know my secret?
FB: Um okay sure
Me: I'm secretly a furry
Me: Accept me senpai
Me: SENPAI!!!
Me: Senpai..?

I'll never live this down, right now would be the perfect time to just bury myself in a hole and hide there forever.

Oh and guess what...
