I laughed, hard enough to send a jolt to my side, "Sorry, but that's not an option. See, I have this thing called a lease agreement and if I break it, I lose my deposit. Besides, I love my apartment, I'm not moving."
He took a step forward until he had me trapped in my doorway. The heat in my veins flared, my breath lodged in my throat, and for the first time in my life, I was speechless.
"No, Little Fire. You have me in your life now and soon, you'll realize your deposit is the least of your worries. If I were you, I'd just give up now and save myself the hassle."
The words 'give up' struck a painful chord in my chest. It reminded me of my father, and that sour feeling snuffed out the fire in my veins.
I shoved at his chest and he had the decency to pretend to stumble, "Listen here Asshat, I do not give up. This is my apartment and I'll be damned if some dipshit tries to chase me out."
He sighed before shooting me a cocky grin, "Then this is going to be really hard for you." He placed both hands flat on the doorway and leaned closer, "I'm the neighbor from hell."
