I wake up to the beeping of a car horn. I spit out the blonde hair that is in my mouth and I suddenly realize

I'm still in my outfit.

Wait no

"How did I even get in Michaels apartment??

And why is Michael here next to me??

What in the blazing hell happened last night?"

Is just a summary of what is even going on in my head. Michael looks ever so peaceful next to me, I just want to lay next to him for a while. But if he wakes up he'll be just as dazed and confused as I am. I don't want to cause him any more unnecessary stress. I need to get out of his apartment NOW before he wakes up.
I sneakily get out of his bed and start going to the front door. I unlock the door and twist the doorknob.

*SQUEAK*

Son of a bitch.

I hear Michael groan and start to toss and turn from the noise.

"Hello?? Who.. are you..?? Are you a fan? I appreciate you seeing me, but you can't be in here while I am sleeping~.." Michael says out of the blue, his voice raspy and way more deeper than usual.

I tense up and freeze, absolutely refusing to turn around, tempted however, to just get out of there even more than originally now. I can hear the bedsheets and comforter shuffle again, the sound of his voice getting closer.

"I'm sorry if I had frightened you but do I .. know you?"

My fight-or-flight instincts kick in and I, without thinking, open the door all the way and just RUN out that door like no tomorrow. I can hear Michael yell from behind me

"HEY! COME BACK!"

I run towards the stairs and jump down each flight until I reach the floor my apartment is on. Once I get to my floor I run down the hall with my apartment keys in hand and burst into my apartment. I take everything off and stuff it into the coat closet then sigh in relief, closing the door behind me. I go into my bathroom to take my makeup off and put pajamas on because well.. it's 6:23 in the morning.

Not even I believe to be 5 minutes later the bathroom door opens I hear the sweet voice I adore the most

"Y/N! Y/N! You would never believe the crazy morning I've had!!"

I subconsciously ignore him, waving my hand while brushing my teeth

"Uh huh, uh huh—" I turned my head

"Michael?! How did you get in my apartment..?"

He chuckles and puts his hands on his hips

"Your door is always open, whenever it's me of course.. it's like you're waiting for me to come and see you .. how sweet of you~"

I roll my eyes

"Keep dreaming, Jackson. I'm not in the mood to play around right now, I just woke up.."

"Grrrrr.. don't be such a sourpus, Y/N. I'm just messin' with you.. BUT LET ME TELL YOU THE CRAZY MORNING I'VE HAD!"

"Talk my ear off, I'm listening."

I wasn't listening.

That entire morning consisted of being told things I already knew about. Though, I don't remember much of the night before, one thing I know is for sure:

Tatiana was NOWHERE in sight after last night.

And I couldn't be happier.
