Henry moved his lips along the neck of the woman in his bed with him. Her smooth cold skin popping up with goosebumps as he bit down on her. Her breath fluttered in his ear in a light airy moan. Her hands moved across his back feeling for anything to hold on to. He pulled off her neck leaning in to kiss her.

Henry's phone rang loudly causing him to roll over on bed to answer. He groaned loudly seeing as he was once again with out the company of the beautiful girl in his dream.

"Hello?", He answered in a gruff voice blinking a few times to adjust to the sunlight pouring in.

The voice of his best friend Scott came from the other side,"Sup bro."

He rolled his eyes moving onto his back,I was having a great dream. Whatever it is better be important."

"Oh do tell what's on dear Henry's mind today. another dream about that infamous girl you refuse to talk to me about?"

Henry got quiet, too quiet. Confirming Scott's question with his silence.

"Ah. so what was it this time?", Scott asked him struggling to talk over the spuds of traffic around him,"Did you actually get to hook up with we this time?"

"I was getting there...", he attempted to justify.

"I want details later, I'll be over at 2 okay? okay. bye!" Scott hung up before he could protest.

Henry rolled out of bed, literally rolling. The only thing on his body was his fathers old watch ant of ratty sweats. He stood up changing out of his grey sweatpants slipping a pair of black jeans over his legs. He sat down at his lap top after retrieving his coffee. The clock in the corner read 10:15, January 10th 2015.

Yeah buddy! his mind rang. The new canvas's should be here!

He decided to run down to his mail box and grab it so he could get to work. Henry grabbed a black and white patterned sweatshirt. Walking past his shoes and not bothering to grab his phone as he thought he wouldn't need them, grabbed his keys leaving his apartment. The black door across from his remained closed although he wanted it to open and it's tenant to come outside. But, the beautiful girl across the hall remained inside as Henry walked past hitting the elevator button. Waiting for the dreadfully slow elevator to arrive.

Don't get him wrong, living on the 16th and top floor of a skyscraper in Chicago is amazing, but if the elevator was on a slow day, his entire day would be off. Luckily for him the elevator was slow but he had only free lance projects to do today.

Finally the doors opened and he stepped inside. The door started to close when he heard a voice shout to him.

"Please hold the door!" It shouted.

Out of instinct he put his hand in between the metal door causing them to open up again. In walked the girl from across the hall. His mind instantly floated back to his dream from that morning making his ears go pink. He couldn't work himself up to say anything so he just stood there waiting for her to speak.
