I casually walk over to my door and open it widely for Mr. and Mrs. Naked. I stand by the door, lightly tapping my foot. A giant grin upon my face. This is going to be spectacular. Oh how I love a humiliated man. But as I wait, I notice neither Naked, is moving. In fact they are just standing, dripping tainted water onto my tile floors.
"Well?" Irritation and agitation, starts dripping from the corners of my mouth. I notice Cindy's, I believe her name is, face starts turning red. More so every second. I cock my head to the side, examining her face. I think I have that color lipstick or is it nail polish? Damn it! That's going to bother me all day! I know I'm weird. We've discussed this already.
"Mind letting us find our clothing first?" Darien (a.k.a. Mr. Naked) finally speaks. A sly smile starts to form on my face.
"Sure thing, that'll be $575, please. I'll take cash or check. Whichever is more convenient." I give him my most charming smile. He's been squatting in my apartment for God only knows how long. It seems only fair he pays a month's worth of rent.
"Ha! You've gotta be fucking nuts. It was your brother who invited us here. So technically we're you're guests. Now would you kindly avert you're eyes while me and my lady friend look for our clothing." Okay tell me I'm delusional. Please tell this male whore did not just insult me in my own home. Alright you may want to back away, things are about to get ugly. I walk towards him calmly.
"Listen here, you Chippendale reject, this is MY home. Either pay me the money or walk outta here naked. Everything in this apartment is mine. I don't care if you brought your grandmother here for a visit. If she is in my apartment she is mine. So fork over the cash." Haha, Chippendale reject, I gotta remember that.
"No." I know it's rude to stare, but I can't seem to stop. You'll have to excuse my behavior. I'm must be getting the flu or something otherwise this man would be twitching on the floor by now.
"Here Dare, just take your clothes. You really need to get out of here." I turn my head towards my brother. I can feel Darien's eyes are on me, smirking. Arrogant jackass. He thinks he won. Well we'll see. I strut over to my soon to be mutilated brother. Grab the clothes and quickly move to my window, opening it with my free hand. Both Darien and Cindy's eyes bulge out of their sockets. Sammy just shakes his head and mutters about a warning.
Darien and I lock eyes. He still seems to be taunting me. He doesn't think I'll do it. His eyes have returned to their sockets. I feel like one of those evil villains in the old soundless, black and white movies. All I need now is a mustache to twirl, a man to tie to train tracks, and a speeding train. It's always a woman. We're not defenseless. We allow men to tie us to train tracks. Remember without the woman to tie down, there'd be no movie. Okay back to the situation at hand, literally.
"You wouldn't. We both now I could take you to court and get a hell of a lot of money. Even for something so simple." He speaks as though he's bored. Well this should liven him up.
"You're trespassing." I take his black, leather pants and drop them. He lunges towards me, eyes again out of their sockets. Maybe he should glue them. Perhaps they'd stay put then. Before he reaches me I drop the rest of the clothes and block the window with my body. He stops suddenly. His face red, resembling Cindy's a little.
"You fucking bitch!" He screams in my face. I don't know how I stayed calm, I don't remember taking any medication this morning. Sammy jumps in then, he looks angry.
"Hey! Watch your mouth! That's my sister. Apologize." Darien throws his arms in the air in frustration. He curses towards the ceiling. I hope Mrs. Sparrow isn't home. That poor old lady. Ever since she saw my last one night stand hopping down my fire escape naked, I'm afraid her little old heart can't take much more. Oh did I just ruin my surprise? Okay well I'll fill in the blanks for you now anyway. I didn't throw their clothes to the street. But rather onto the fire escape. It's just more fun this way.
"Fine! I'm sorry your sister's such a bitch!" Did Darien actually just growled? The only other time I've heard a man growl was when I…..uh never mind.
"Darien!" Sammy yelled. Darien muttered an apology under his breath. His dignity completely gone, along with Cindy. Back into the bathroom I suppose. Now's my cue.
"Your clothes are on the fire escape." I say as I riffle through his wallet. Wow, this dude has to be rich. I pull out $310. It'll due. Some is better then none, right?
"Get dressed and get out." I start walking towards my bedroom, counting my newly acquired money. I stop when I hear him chuckling. I turn, eyebrow lifted in curiosity.
"You know, you've got some brass balls in those panties." End of our conversation. Five minutes later The Nakeds are gone. I watch as Sammy tries to inch his way towards the door.
"Freeze, worm! You are going to clean this entire apartment from top to bottom. You are going to wash ALL these clothes. Anything that belongs to me, you will fold and place neatly on my bed. You will restock my fridge with the items on this list. And if it's the last thing you ever do, you will get rid of that smell!"
"You have the rest of the day and night to complete your tasks. I'll be at Mina's and Sammy if I'm not completely satisfied, I'll make sure mom finds out about the time you and Karen Miller had sex on her and Dad's bed when they went to Bermuda." I knew saving that one would pay off sooner or later.
-----------------------------------------------------------------
'Dear Sere, I knew you'd come around once you got home. Let me guess…..Sammy trashed your apartment? Well sorry hun, I'm out of town. Feel free to stay as long as it takes your brother to clean up his mess. I'll call ya tonight. Kisses, Mina'
Despite my day I smile, that girl knows me too well. It's scary. I take the note down from her door and lift up her floor mat. I grab the key and enter her apartment. It still smells like peach. When I left three weeks ago Mina, went through a peach phase. The month before I left, it was mangos. She's fruity.
I go towards her fridge. I didn't even notice. It's like I'm caught in one of those alien beams. Not to my surprise though, it's empty. I notice a note on the inside of the door. 'Were you really expecting to see something?' Sighing heavily I exit the door I just entered mere minutes ago.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
Hmmm, which fast food chain should I clog my arteries with today? Jack in the Box? Nah, I'm still on their "list." Punch one person and everyone's against you! I told him I didn't like animals and he just had to make me a giraffe! Oh well, I never liked a man who wore more make up then me. I think I'll go to Star Bucks. Those things have just sprouted everywhere! It's like Johnny traded in his apple seeds for coffee beans.
I order a Caramel Frappuchino, light, and sit at a table, casually sipping my drink. I'm debating on what to eat. Some may call me picky, I call myself well thought out. I'm not an impulse buyer. Okay I know not a hard decision. I order a sandwich and leave quickly before all the weirdo's come in. Kid's now a days. They certainly have changed.
The sun is just starting to set. I don't like being out on the streets late at night. Not that I'm afraid, it's just……scary okay! Is that what you want to hear?! Yes I am scared! Heh, maybe I should look into that medication thing. Anyways, I decide to take a short cut through the alley behind Star Bucks. I slow my walk to a casual stroll. Despite the darkness slowly creeping on me, it's a very nice night out.
Someone's behind me. I hear their footsteps falling in tune with mine. Okay quick Serena remember what they told you in all those self defense classes. When they come from behind they grab at you. Grab their arm. Shift your weight opposite theirs and pull as hard as you can. My breathing quickens. I try not to scream bloody murder when I feel their hand on my left shoulder. I quickly grab their arm and flip the perp, I watch a lot of cop shows, onto his back. I bite my cheek to keep from screaming.
"Nice to see you again too." Darien grimaces as the pain hits his body. Great, now I have a stalker. Why couldn't it be a mugger?

Sorry for the wait. I hope I didn't disappoint anyone. Again thank you for all the reviews. They really made my day times 10! Please keep reviewing. Tell me what you like, even what you don't.
