It was six o'clock on a Saturday night. As always, Larry remained home babysitting his little sister while his parents went off to some party or club. Luckily, Sandy posed no trouble. She was incredibly self sufficient and he was only there as a precaution in case the house caught on fire and because he had no where else to go. Larry sauntered away from his resting place, perched in front of the tv in his room, making his way slowly to the bathroom. Shutting and locking the door behind him, Larry undressed and stepped into the shower. As he turned on the water, a smile pierced his face at the feeling of warm water running down his back. He followed the normal routine of shampoo and conditioner, when suddenly, he felt a distinct sensation, once again, creeping up his spine. It was the day with Kate. He couldn't get it out of his head. There was a distinct sense of insecurity and discomfort. In her large, round eyes, Larry could now see something that hadn't been there before: Pain. A deep kind of pain that even she didn't realize was there. Smiling again, with the satisfaction of knowing something so intimate that even the owner of these feelings didn't realize them, Larry then felt another sensation creeping up on him. This time, however, it was an image of Kate. She was dressed in only two white scarves, strategically placed over her private areas. They seemed to be held on by the wind which was blowing at her, ruffling the scarves and letting her hair flow behind her majestically. He stepped into the picture and the wind seemed to stop. Kate smiled at him as the two scarves fell to her bare feet. He wandered towards her and slowly caressed her naked body. She moaned in pleasure as he leaned into kiss her, ever so gently. Hastily, Larry realized that he had now reached down and began pleasuring himself as the water ran softly down his back. Pushing his way back into his fantasy, he indulged himself until he'd finished and the image of Kate slowly faded from view. Wondering what this meant, he turned off the shower water and wandered slowly back to his room. In the hallway, he saw his sister playing with her Barbie dolls and felt a pang of guilt for what he'd done, with her sitting so close to the room. Yet this feeling lasted only a moment, while he stepped into his room and locked the door. A confused look still played across his face as he heard the sounds of a JC Penny's commercial in on the tv in the backround. Why Kate? What did it mean? He sat down on the edge of his bed and decided he would push her out of his mind. It was better not to get your hopes up about these things. It was better not to feel something so strongly for someone he didn't really know. Someone who hated him. Someone who he'd never thought of as beautiful before. Larry lied himself down on his bed and fell asleep with the lights still on.
