I smiled, humming my little tune as I walked down the staircase to go down to the lobby of the apartment building. The lobby is dirty and dusty where I don't recall the last time it was cleaned, the dust and muck from the streets of new york often fluttering in as cars go past the rain usually washing it in too. I hurried across the back and white floor to the little mail boxes I got my key from the pocket of my apron going to my little box and gathering up my letters and other bits and bobs I glanced over to the other side of the boxes and saw a the figure I was rather infatuated with. His skinny body close to the wall flicking through his letters, his pants tight to his body, his dark shirt close to him, his sleeves rolled to his elbows, a cigarette hanging from his mouth. I was happy to see him again after so long,
"Uhhhhh Hi Benny?" I smiled He looked up to me a moment before returning to his mail
"Hey" He says back
"You're Back then" I smiled holding my mail close to my chest locking my box again putting my key back in my apron pocket
"Yeah" He says
"Are you going to be back for long?" I asked
"Oh No just a couple of days" he answered "Well see you around" he says heading back to the staircase
"Wait benny.... Uhhh Did you want me to look after your flat while you're gone again?" I asked "I could get your mail again while you're gone?"
"Uhh... yeah sure, I'll drop the keys off before I leave on tuesday" he says
"Okay see you on tuesday then benny" I smiled as he went up the stairs back to his apartment.
I hurried up to my own, throwing my mail on the table, in case it wasn't terribly obvious I had a really tiny, super small, almost impossible to tell...crush on Benny Watts.
And honestly I don't know why I just find him irresistible, he's barely around much and when he is he barely speaks to me if I see him in the halls or while getting the mail. Last time I actually held a conversation with him for more than five minutes was during a fire in the building last year.
But as I was only next-door to him I always look after his apartment for him when he goes away for tournaments and championships. I'd give anything to get to sit with him while he plays chess just to sit and watch his brain work and not to mention his sexy body work but I know he never paid much attention to me...
But, at least I have something, after all my washing machine sure does know Benny very well even if I have to be a bit more secretive about it when I know he's just the other side of the wall.
I heard a little tap on my door so I dusted off my hands from my sweeping and hurried to the door seeing Benny his arm leant on the door frame his thick black jacket over his usually clothes
"Hey" he smiled briefly
"Ohh hello Benny" I smiled trying not to blush as I fixed my hair
"Look you know I hate to ask but you haven't got any coffee have you?"
"Aww of course I have, come in I'll make you up a little bag" I smiled letting him in my flat I went to the kitchen and began sorting him out a little container of coffee powder
"How is your place so much nicer than mine?" He asked himself
"Because I'm here all the time, you're off halfway around the world" I laughed "do you have milk over there?" I asked
"You don't have to y/n"
"Do you have milk Benny yes or no?"
"No" he sighed fixing his hair
