"How come you didn't tell me about that party?" I asked Nate as I took a seat beside him on the couch.
Nate was 1 year older than me and worked as a mechanic. He owned his own apartment that needed a lady to look after.He wasn't the tidiest.
"I wanted it to be a surprise, babe." He started to kiss my neck. It was usually arousing, but not in this case. I don't know if it was the sordid living room or the mysterious party we all agreed to attend. I think it was the latter.I woke up beside him on the couch. I looked at my watch. 4:25 a.m. I sighed and got up to use the bathroom. It wasn't as messy as I thought it would be. I slipped my shorts off and sat on the toilet. The bright light hurt my dreary eyes, so I hung my head low.
When I got up, I was stunned to see a figure standing in the darkness.
The light could do no justice in recognizing the silhouette.
Fearing to go out there, I stopped at the door. It then raised its hand then waved at me slowly.
I held in the scream as I knew it could be Nate. "Stop playing around, you nearly scared me." I warned him.
He stopped waving then opened the door and walked out.I walked after him, surprised by his actions. He walked steadily down the dark street. "Nate, where are you going?" I shouted.
"Babe," I jumped in fright as I heard him behind me. "I'm right here." I looked around and saw him.
"But... I just saw you leave the house." I stuttered looking him deeply in the eyes.He laughed and dragged me back on the couch to cuddle.
"I never left." He simply said then dozed off. But I for one, couldn't sleep after what had just happened.
