Inspiration: J.D. Salinger's book Franny and Zooey
Character: Lane Coutell (the douche)
_____
Lane went to the game without her. Franny said she wasn't feeling well enough. He was annoyed. He drank too much with his friends.
He paid for her room at the boarding house. She owed him an evening. That's when he decided to go to the boarding house. This was a golden idea. In his mind at least.
He started with small pebbles at her window. Her room was on the second floor. The batty crone that ran the boarding house did that on purpose.
The light came on. He swore he saw the curtains part.
The window stayed shut.
