Thread: One Crazy Summer (Kassy & Friendlikeme)

Kassy barely heard her brother's alarmed voice asking about where she'd gotten the energy drink, her mind was too busy trying to figure out a logical explanation as to how the stranger from the bus had gotten here. There were just too many unanswered questions, she tried to run through the train of events that had led to such an unexpected and unlikely encounter could have come to pass. She'd gotten off the bus, while the stranger had not, she was sure of this because she was watching over her shoulder due to the creep-factor she'd gotten off of the guy in the first place. So that meant he rode the bus until atleast the next stop before exiting, with around 5 minutes in between metro stops, that put him pretty far off of her trail. She'd entered the building and talked to the nice and attentive front desk security guard. Sure, the guard hadn't asked for ID, but he was expecting her thanks to her brother's earlier notice. She entered the elevator and got up to the 16th floor in around 5 minutes, meaning the 'stalker' would have just been getting off of the bus...and what, he sprinted at Olympic level athletic prowess back to the building? No! no no NO! He was fat and balding and a creepy middle aged man that's atleast another 10 minute walk, maybe a 5 minute jog. Than there was the guard, he just lets a creepy stranger by? How did the stranger know what floor she went to unless he asked the front doorman? So we are supposed to believe that some grimy, out of shape, pervo comes jogging up and asks what floor the hot young chick got off on... and the Security guard tells him??? Next Kassy sees Heidi and a short conversation ensues, maybe a minute or two, then they used the KEY to enter the apartment...because the door automatically locks. Did she accidentally set the lock switch to 'unlock' when she closed the door? No she didn't think so, Did Heidi close the door, did she unlock it, and why would she? Next came the shower, Kassy walked into the bathroom in such a hurry that she dropped her clothing to the floor and hopped in with out even bothering to shut the door. 3 minutes to get a soap suds going and then the gun shot rang out. Then came a minute or so to internalize the reaction and decide that it wasn't just Heidi bumping into something...that was a gun shot. She hesitated, what for a minute realistically? maybe a minute and a half? That isn't enough time for this to logically happen? That isn't to even mention the fact that her brother arrived seconds....SECONDS LATER and subdued the creep. How'd he get up there that quick? Was he already on the 16th floor and just.....Hiding??? Did he ride up in the elevator with the stalker? WTF??? Suddenly her internal monologue was interrupted by the realization that her brother was yelling about some 1.79 energy drink she'd ganked out of his refrigerator in the midst of this unbelievable situation. Jeeeezus christ Alex....ARE YOU FUCKING KIDDING ME??? I'll buy you another energy drink! Kassy announced with absolute indignation. How about we talk about the fact that there is a bullet hole in your ceiling and you live in an apartment complex! Are you waiting to see if blood drips out of the hole in your ceiling before you go and check on your upstairs neighbor? What about the cops? HUH? They are gonna wanna talk to us! They aren't just gonna take the 'questionable' security guard's opinion on what happened here! SHOTS FIRED MAN.....SHOTS FIRED! Kassy screamed in righteous indignation. ...AND this is WHAT you are WORRIED about? She said holding up the still mostly full bottle of neon fluid. Okay ALEX....Okay....I opened your ENERGY DRINK! I did it! I will buy you another one, stop being such a smuck! Kassy screamed, and pulled the bottle to her mouth and poured it's entire contents down her throat like a coed at a keg party. Neon liquid poured down her gullet, splashing onto her cheeks and staining towel covered breasts. There it's GONE! She hollared.
