Chapter 19: Intruder
Pushing my door open and stepping into my warm apartment, I set my bag on the stand at the side and slip off my heels and leather jacket.
With my heels still in my hands, I walk further into the apartment eager to just sink into the warmth and comfort of my bed after a tiring day at work.
I feel my heart stop when I hear the sound of snoring coming from the couch.
Looking around for a weapon..
Geez, Emma, you have a weapon in your hands….
Great, my heels will do the trick.
My statue isn't exactly intimidating so I need these heels to scare off the intruder.
I can't flip the switch right now, if I do so, I would be waking the intruder and if I do so it will be the death of me. I will just use the city lights coming through my kitchen window as a source of light.
A cringe screech escaped my lips as I felt my heel connect with the intruder's back or head, whatever I hit must have been pretty good, because he frantically yells for me to stop in a voice that sounds quite familiar but with my adrenaline-driven state, I ignore it.
Bashing through the intruder's skull with my heel, I still don't know where I'm getting this energy.
"It's me,"
"it's me, Jason," he yells.
"What the fuck!?" I stop in my position.
"God damn, Emma were you really going to kill me?" he whines.
"B-but how?"
I playfully hit my head, I forgot I had given him my spare keys.
Before we could turn on the light, there was a creaking sound of the door opening in the silent pitch-black night and only our heavy breathing could be heard.
" Are you expecting someone?" Jason, whispers.
"No, are you!?" I whisper back.
"Jee-zus, Emma this is your house why would I be expecting someone?" He questions in a whisper.
"I-I don't know" I shrug.
" Get behind me," he says motioning his body in front of me to keep me safe.
I swear Jason could hear my heart racing cause I felt like it was going to pop out of my chest.
The door is silently moving through the dullness of the night, and a creaking sound is heard as the door closes.
"Shit, that means someone has entered" I mutter to myself and squeeze Jason's arm.
Gripping my heel, because I have no weapon other than this, I stand in a position ready to fight but at the same time, my heart is about to burst out of my chest.
A slight movement is heard, and Jason and I scream while Jason turns to hug me in an awkward position.
The light flickers on and standing at the door is Jessica who's trying to hold back her laughter but suddenly she lets out a loud chuckle.
"What are you guys doing?" She giggles.
"Why are you trying to kill us? " Jason yells looking at Jess in a funny way.
"Jason, what do you have those muscles for?" Jessica chuckles.
"To defend me and others of course," he says in a childish voice.
"Who's defending who here?"she points out at us still trying to hold back her laughter.
"And Emma, what's with the heel,you look creepy ?" She asks, pointing at my heel.
"Well good question Jess, she tried to kill me with it" Jason, yells looking thoroughly offended.
" You were on my couch snoring" I shrug defending myself .
With a chuckle" You guys are crazy ?"
"Jee-zus, Jessica you almost gave me a heart attack with your scary laughter, '' Jason says with a voice shrill.
"Stop whining like a baby" Jessica rolls her eyes.
"So you were hitting Jason With that, I suppose?" She points at the heel.
Looking at the heel and back at her, I nod like a child caught stealing sugar.
"Yeah, she did and she was screaming like a mad woman," Jason says incredulously, making me blush scarlet.
" Well, Pizza delivery," she says, taking off her coat.
" God, Jessica thank you for this delivery, I was so famished" Jason moans with food full in his mouth.
"God!, Jason take it easy," I say.
While eating Jason catches up with the recent gossip.
"So you mean, Andrew was here?" He asks with his eyes wide open.
"Yep," Jessica says with a mouth full of pizza.
" Oh, goodness Emma," he says, eyeing me.
"What!?" I shrug.
"Girl, you are too much," he says.
" Look guys he was just here to check up on me," I say.
"Oh!" They both sing.
"You guys are mad" I chuckle.
Telling them about the flowers I received at work wasn't such a good idea after all, to my dismay it took over our conversations and they came up with multiple theories all seemingly impossible to believe.
"What if it was Emir,?"
"Jee-zus, Jessica"
I continued, "There's no way he would do that?"
"What if they are from a kidnapper trying to kidnap you after work?" Jason says.
"Oh my goodness, Jason, that's creepy," I say.
"What I'm just saying, you know" he shrugs.
"God, Jason" Jessica and I say in a lyric.
They both start smirking while I look at them horrified "What!?" I shrug thoroughly creeped out after they are both just sitting there smirking for a steady minute.
"So let's just say you have a secret admirer," Jessica says smirking and Jason makes hooting sounds.
I flushed slightly because of the way Jessica is now calculating me.
Trying to change the topic to something else, they both don't buy it.
"Alright you two, you've had your fun for today," I say standing up.
"Oh goodness, Emma, just let us sleep over," Jessica says.
"Nope, I'm not letting that happen," I say.
They both stand up with puppy eyes.
"That still won't change my mind nope," I tell them, summoning them to the door.
"Goodnight, Emma," Jason says, kissing my forehead.
"Night, bitch" Jessica says, kissing softly on my cheek.
I close the door behind me and retire to my room, closing all lights on the way, Settling myself into the comfort of my duvet, I sigh deeply.
"What if they were from Emir,?"
