I push against the black boulder-like door and stumble out the building. The throbbing sound of music seeped out from the bar as I exited.

"Go to the bar, have a few drinks. It'll be fun.", i mimicked. Stupid co-workers, they dare fool me like this.

I click back into reality and realize where I'm at. The street looked way more intimidating than when I entered it this afternoon. In the corner of my eye rapid flickering catches my attention. This was due to the street light across the street. As every second passed, shivers trailed down my body. To make it worse, all you could hear was the buzzing sound from the light and the trees whispering to one another.

I shake my head and begin to walk down the shady sidewalk which was accompanied by a black silhouette. The shadow coughs and steps towards me. It stops in front of the eerie street light.

A man appeared and his facial features were very distinct in the light. He had slick ivory hair and lightly tanned skin that complimented him.  When you look into his eyes one could say it was like looking at two Hershey kisses. As corny as it may sound, it was true.

The man's mouth turned upward noticing I was eying him.

"You like what you see?", he said in a squeaky and nasal voice.

I stopped. What sound came out of his mouth right now.

"What?", I asked in horror with my eyes wide.

"Want me to take you to bed?", his voice was even higher and scrawny this time.

I laughed until my stomach couldn't take the pain. This guy was so deceiving.  

I picked myself up after collapsing onto the ground and dusted my gray high ankle jeans. I looked up at the man and his face was red with fury. He looked like he was gonna blow his top.

He began to clench his fists but then released them. He took a deep breathe, probably because he was so lightheaded. I mean how can someone have such a squeaky voice.

"I'll show you what a real man is," I could tell he was trying to make his voice husky but it just made it worse.

"Yeah, but I ain't interested," I smiled at him and turned the other way. As I was walking I heard the man huff behind me.

"Come here babygirl," his footsteps rapidly increased and I took off, leaving dust behind.

This crazy bastard. I continue running down the street with my feet echoing throughout the street. Luckily I've built some distance between Minnie Mouse and I, and found a closed off ally way.

I run to the corner of dead end and glide my hand down to my hip to grasp my taser. You never know when you need it especially when Minnie Mouse is coming after you.

I try to slow my breathing so I can hear when he's coming towards the corner of the allyway. Weirdly his footsteps have calmed down and isn't urgent.

I see his faint shadow appear in front of me and I tase him in the thigh for 5 seconds to temporarily shock him. He looked like he was about to fall so I caught him before he hit the ground. I didn't want him to get a fatal head injury from the fall. I would be screwed.

He grunted in a low voice. What the hell, did puberty hit him within that timeframe? The man grunted once again and I looked at the man.

Oh shit.
