Luna POV:
After dragging myself away from his apartment door and coming home, I changed into my oversized black V neck and grey sweatpants before climbing into bed. I had never been so happy in all my life to be going to sleep. Just as I was drifting off, I heard voices in the hallway.
"Como en [come in]" he said, followed by a loud giggle, a loud feminine giggle. I groaned out loud. These walls were made of brick but felt like they were paper thin. I could hear them talking in Spanish, in what I presumed was his kitchen. Irritated, I climbed out of bed and over to the balcony attached to my bedroom. With my blanket wrapped around me I stood, admiring the twinkling lights of New York. This truly is the city that never sleeps.
I was deep in my own thoughts when I was quickly alerted to the noises coming from next door. I turned my head and realised I could see directly into his living room, where a very beautiful, but very naked woman was pressed up against the armchair of his sofa. She was moaning. That's when I noticed him. Standing behind her, also very naked.
I couldn't see much of him but I could see his chest glistened with sweat, and his muscular arms holding onto her sides as he ploughed into her from behind. He was slow but with each thrust she cried out for more. His eyes snapped open and as he looked forward, they met mine.
It was like I was stuck in place, like I couldn't look away. He kept his eyes locked to mine and began to move faster, his guest wailing in pleasure. He did not break eye contact with me while he picked up the pace so that he was pounding into her with everything he had. I felt like electricity was running through me straight to my core and instantly I thought of how it would feel if I was the one underneath his hold. How I'd beg him to pull my hair as he plunged deeper int...
OH MY GOD. I finally snapped back to reality, embarrassment washing over me and instantly and he knew it. The smirk on his face told me everything. I spun on my heels and through my balcony doors, regret washing over me immediately. I laid in bed and could still hear her moans and cries. It was going to be a long night.
the next morning I woke up feeling less than satisfied with the amount of sleep I got. The noises from next door died out sometime around 3am, allowing me to finally fall asleep. Checking my phone for the time, it read just before 7am. I got up and padded my way to the kitchen. Once the coffee machine was running and I had my first mouthful, I felt myself become a little more alert. Usually I was much more of a morning person but last night replayed in my mind and it irritated me. Embarrassment washed over me again.
Suddenly, an idea came to mind. Two can play this game. I raced over to my stereo and connected my phone through the Bluetooth. Flicking through my playlist, I landed on the song I was looking for. Turning my stereo to full volume i held my phone up and pressed play.
"Well swingin' on the front porch swingin' on the lawn
Swingin' where we want 'cause there ain't nobody home
Swingin' to the left and swingin' to the right
If I think about baseball I'll swing all night yeah"
A laugh bubbled to my throat and I smirked, skipping back into my kitchen. Before the chorus could kick in, a loud banging on my door stilled me. I walked over, putting on the biggest fake smile I could muster and swung the door open.
He was standing in my doorway wearing nothing but a pair of tight black boxer briefs, and a deadly glare.
"Good morning sunshine!" I cheered at him. He stepped forward causing my smugness to falter.
"Turn your music down" he said, a hint of amusement in his tone, but it was laced with irritation.
"Oh is it bothering you? I'm so sorry about that. I hope I didn't wake your guest up, I know you both had a late night" I bit back.
He smirked then, and he knew I could hear them through the walls. "Did you enjoy the show last night? He said, his husky voice thick with amusement. I was shocked that he was so forward about it. Heat instantly rushed to my core and my face reddened in embarrassment.
"I don't know what you're talking about" I forced myself to say.
"Oh yes you do" he said, "Did you like to watch me fuck her? Did you wish it was you underneath me instead?" He said, suddenly stepping closer.
"N-no, why would I want that from you?" I stuttered. He chuckled darkly before replying "why couldn't you look away then cariño?". Before I could reply, a voice echoed out into the hallway.
"Tanner? Donde estas? [Where are you?]". I finally knew his name. Tanner. Of course it was. Typical. He stepped back from me and his green eyes filled with annoyance.
"Turn the music down before I make you turn it down" he said before turning around and walking back to his apartment. I closed my door and stood for a minute. I walked over and switched the volume off before letting out the breath I was holding onto.
Halfway through eating my omelette, my phone started to ring. Picking the phone up I hesitated. Eventually deciding to answer it, I hit the green button,
"Hi Jason" I said as I put the phone on speaker.
"GIRL! How are you!" He practically shouted through the phone. Jason had been my closest friends for almost 10 years. We grew up together and he knew me better than anyone. He was family. He was also extremely gay.
"I am SO excited you're here in New York! I can't wait to start working together tomorrow! Your first big day! How are you feeling?" He asked.
Jason was the one who helped me make my final decision to move here. He worked for an event planning company, Global events inc. and I was lucky enough to get a full time job as an event co-ordinator. I had my bachelors in event management and one day I would own my own event planning company. I just had to save the money up first.
"I feel amazing, I'm so excited to see the office and meet everyone" I replied, feeling the excitement in my belly.
"Well I can't wait to show you around! Ooh girl wait until you meet Axel, he is a dreamboat and if his bat swung my way I would jump on that for a home run if you know what I'm saying girl!" he said.
"I'm not interested in any of the eye candy Jason, I just want to work hard and save money right now. I have big plans" I retorted, knowing full well what Jason was like. He was always trying to set me up with his straight friends, but I had no interest.
"Fine fine, I'll text you later and we can meet up for a drink okay? Gotta run, love you girl!" He shouted and hung up. Rolling my eyes, I finished up with breakfast and cleaned the kitchen down.
I made a list of all the groceries and supplies I needed and placed an online order to have them delivered tomorrow before work. Walking into my closet, I put on a pair of black high waisted jeans with a green flannelette shirt. Sinking down into the lounge, I picked up my laptop and a notebook, I continued working on my business plan.
