Unexpected
“Tap. Tap.
The persistent knocking pulls me from my slumber. Lifting my head, I look around. I’m in my room, in my bed, under the covers, still fully dressed except for my shoes. I hear the noise again, but it’s not coming from inside. Shuffling to the window, I peer through the lace curtains.
There’s a guy, pretty strung out, pacing in front of the bar. I move the curtain all the way back and the movement catches his attention. Through the glass, he yells up to me. “Can you go get Connor? It’s ...an emergency.” I nod to show that I heard him and tiptoe across the hall to Connor’s room.

He looks so peaceful; I don’t want to wake him. Besides, I don’t remember all of the details from last night and what might have happened between us. But the guy said it was an emergency. Swallowing my pride, I place my hand on his back as I whisper in his ear.MoreLess
