In all of the years I have been alive and have been receiving attention, I have never seen someone this obsessed. It's only been a few hours since I've mentioned the stalker. I was standing in front of my front door with my mouth wide open. My door was unlocked.
And it wasn't by me.
I slowly pushed my door open and looked around. I skimmed the front room with my eyes. I suddenly felt colder than I already was. I quietly closed the door behind me and crept around the house. It was like I was afraid someone was gonna pop out of nowhere. After looking around for a while I couldn't find anything that was misplaced or missing. I didn't even find things I haven't seen before.
That is, until I reached my bed room. I opened the slowly and looked at the room in shock. My bed sheets were everywhere, pictures that were on the wall had been taken down, my drawers were open and clothes were hanging out of them. I dropped my bag to immediately inspect my room. I skimmed through my dresser drawers and closet. So far a few things that were missing were some paintings, t shirts, and underwear?
Why did they take my underwear?
Suddenly I felt something fall onto my face, I looked up and stared at my ceiling in horror. My ceiling was covered in honey, and a ripped up pink bear was tapped to it. I grabbed my bag that I had dropped on the floor and I ran out of the apartment. I'm not staying here after knowing someone broke in.
As soon as I reached the front of my house I was hit with realization, who would I go to? I skimmed the area around me. The sky was dimming meaning that the day was almost over. I can't go to Day, I don't even know where he lives, I forgot to ask.
How unfortunate.
I can't go to Riley either, her dad will most definitely not let me in to spend the night with his daughter. Especially when he knows my intentions with her. I guess I have no choice, I have to go home. I took my car and made my way downtown. It was a long quiet drive and the lights didn't seem to be on when I got there. Looks like mom and dad left for their trip early. I looked through the glass window to see if anyone was there.
That's when I got a slight glance of bright red hair. I quickly ran to the front of the house and knocked on the door."Eli I know you're there!" I said, but it was quiet.
"Eli if you don't open the door I'll tell mom you're crashing at the house!"
Soon the door swung open, I stepped back startled."Pipe down will you? Now what do you want?" He said as he held a lighter and a cigarette in one hand."I need to crash here." I said and he scoffed."Why should I let you? You owe me so much already." I put my hand on the door to force it open more,"You don't have to let me do anything, this is my house too." I said and he pushed the door towards me, trying to close it.
"Go sleep somewhere else." He said and I added more force,"If you don't let me in than mom will have an interesting story here about you smoking in the house and crashing her without her knowing." There was a long pause before he let go of the door and sighed in defeat."Fine, what you doing here anyway? Why can't you stay with that pretty girl of yours?" He said and lit his cigarette.
"I couldn't possibly do that." I said and he scoffed,"Why not have you become a goody two shoes?" I set my bag down at the big staircase."I guess you could say that, where are the others?" I asked as I walked further into the house."Dean's at some club, Jay's at a friends, and Sean's upstairs with maybe three or four girls."
I scrunched my face in disgust when he mentioned what Sean was up to. Although Sean was a very successful scientist he had way too many sides of himself."Why do you need to crash here anyway?" Eli asked as he pressed down the end of his cigarette in an old ash tray dad had used.
"My stalker broke into my house, stole my clothes and paintings, and even put honey on my ceiling." Eli's eyes suddenly grew wide,"Excuse me, did you say they put honey, on your ceiling?" I nodded my head unamused."Well did you call the cops at least?"
"I did, but they couldn't fine any finger prints or even foot prints, so they really couldn't help me." I said as opened the fridge to look for anything I could steal."Why are they doing this? You owe someone money don't you?" Eli said as he squinted his already small eyes at me."No I don't owe someone money, I just have a someone who seems to be very obsessed with me."
"There's no way someone could be this obsessed with you, I mean you of all people? What's so special about you?" Eli said with a genuinely confused face."Wow thanks for the brotherly love." I said as I grabbed a beer out of the fridge."Why you guys so loud? I have things to take care of."
I looked to the side to see Sean walk into the kitchen with only black sweatpants on."Ew I rather you stay up stairs, you reek of women." Sean laughed slightly and wrapped his arm around Eli,"So you don't like women anymore little brother?"
"I never said that, I just don't like the women that hang around you." He said as he slapped Sean's arm off of him."Aren't you almost 40 years old?" I asked and Sean scoffed."I'm only 35 I'm not old." He said and I side eyed him."Why aren't you questioning Eli? He's 31."
"Yeah, but I'm not 35." Eli said as he glared at Sean."Well we should confront Dean too he's 39 he'll be 40 may of next year and he still isn't married."I rolled my eyes,"And why is that? He'so busy showcasing his explicit art in clubs." Eli laughed aloud while Sean sighed."Why are you here anyway? Don't you have your own apartment with Day?"
"Firstly, someone broke into my house, stole some of my things, and even put honey on y ceiling Secondly Day doesn't live with me anymore and he quit school, he even got himself a partner." I said and he just stared at me with a shocked look.
"What?"
"You've got some serious issues."
