Me

I see you’ve lost interest…

Text bubbles appear before they disappear again. That happens a couple of times before she does send through a message.

Little Stalker

You know my life doesn’t revolve around you.

Feisty. I love when they have a bite to them. It’s always fun to break them.

Me

Oh, my mistake.

I thought the fact that you’ve been stalking me and killing anyone who comes near me was a sign that you’re more than just interested.

Little Stalker

Don’t be an asshole.

I’ve just been busy.

Me

Dreaming of me?

Little Stalker

I never thought I’d say this, but…

You’re annoying.

Me

I guess it’s better to watch me from afar and not get too close.

Little Stalker

Exactly. Your pretty until you open your mouth.

Me

You think I’m pretty?

Little Stalker

If you don’t stop, I’ll block you.

I let out a laugh of disbelief. My own fucking stalker is threatening to block me. If that isn’t irony at its finest, then I don’t know what the hell is. I know I’m testing my limit here, but I decide to call her.

The phone rings. Ring. Ring. And just when I think she’s going to let it ring ’til it goes to voicemail, she picks up.

“What?” she snaps over the phone.

Fuck, her voice is even sexier than I remember.

Am I nervous? No. There’s no fucking way she makes me nervous.
