I ended up falling asleep on the way back to the apartment. When we got back, he shook me awake, "We're back."
"Carry me?"
"What?"
"Carry me."
"Really?" I shook my head. "Alright, but you have to get out yourself." I opened the car door and waited for him to come around. When he came to my side, he leaned in and whispered, "lets go." I climbed out of the car and he bent down for me to get on his back. I lazily wrapped my arms around his neck and legs around his waist and he stood.
"Damn, it's nice up here," I joked. He pushed the card door closes, locked the car, and secured my legs with his hands at the knee. As he carried me to his apartment, I laid my head on him and listened to his heart beat. Gaege struggled with his keys at the door but eventually got it open. He tapped it closed with his foot and carried me to his bedroom.
"I'm going to drop you on the bed." He said.
"No."
"Yes."
"No. Just put me down." I lifted my head and unlocked my hands. He let go of my knees and let me down. "Damn. Now I'm short again." I smiled. I went and grabbed my pajamas from my bag and moved the suitcase to be able to sit down. "Can you get into the large makeup bag and grab the blue package? It says makeup wipes on it." I started to take my shoes off. He left the room and quickly came back with what I asked for. I took it from his hand and pulled a wipe out. After violently scrubbing my face, I dug out a bag of toiletries from my suitcase and made my way to the bathroom. I proceeded with my nightly routine while he did his own thing.
When I came back, Gaege was in sweatpants and a plain t-shirt. "How well do you sleep?"
"Pretty well. Why?"
"I'm going to record tonight and I don't want to keep you awake."
"You're fine. I will fall asleep with the TV at full volume."
"Okay. Well, if you need anything, you know where to find me."
"Okay. Thank you." We both stood there awkwardly.
"Alright, good night."
"Good night," I responded as he walked out of the room closing the door behind him. When I heard the door to his recording room close, I decided to start to change. I took my phone and wallet out of my pockets and set them on the side table next to the bed. I pulled my shirt off and unhooked my bra. I let it fall to the ground when I heard the door knob turn.
"Oh fuck! I am so sorry!" Gaege quickly turned his head and closed his eyes. I rapidly threw on a shirt and let him know he was fine to open his eyes. "I forgot some stuff but I'll just come back after I'm done recording. I'm sorry."
"knock next time." I said. He gave an awkward thumbs up and closed the door. I buried my face in my hands from the pure embarrassment. I had to calm myself before I continued to change. As I put away the clothes I was previously wearing, I let out a large yawn. I dug out my phone changer from my bag and looked around for an outlet. When I couldn't see one from eye level, I laid the charger on the bed and walked out of the room. I gently knocked on his recording room door and waited for an answer.
"Give me a second guys," I heard him say, "It's open." I cracked the door and popped half of my body in.
"I'm sorry. I know you're busy," I said awkwardly. Gaege sat back in his chair with his headphones around his neck. "I was wondering where I could plug my phone in."
"Yeah. There is an outlet between the bed and side table." He smiled.
"Thank you," I responded. As I shut the door behind me, I heard him speak again.
"Yo, are you guys still coming?" I didn't pay much attention to it. I went back into the bedroom, plugged my phone in and turned the light out. I laid in his bed and listened to his muffled screaming through the walls. I ended up falling asleep not much later.
