Suddenly felt like updating today, sorry it's late and I am tired so there are probably quite a few mistakes. But oh wells. Nighty Night enjoy!
I woke up in a bed, it was nice and spongy. Hmmm so nice, I then roll over hoping to fall back to sleep. Suddenly my eyes shot open. I was then faced with an unfamiliar bedroom; it was plain and gave no indication to its owner. I tried to think what I last remember…..Running…Hyperventilating…Panicking ….and Morimoto.
Suddenly I shot out of the bed, I tip toed to the door and opened it trying to harness my ninja skills, not sure what I would find on the other side of this door. No surprise, I failed and the door creaked loudly as I opened it. The door opened to Morimoto's living where he was sitting on his couch watching some kind of Japanese TV. He looked up when he heard my entry.
"You're awake" he said.
"Uhh yes." I said awkwardly, what do I say? I don't really know how I ended up at Morimoto's house and my past experiences with him had been a little creepy. I just stood there saying nothing unsure of what to do next.
"How do you feel?" he asked sounding concerned which actually surprised me, I hadn't really seen anything other than his flirty demeanour.
"I feel fine. Tired, Confused. How did I get here?" I asked voicing my concerns.
"Well I was going to take you home, but you feel asleep and I didn't know where you lived…." He answered letting the sentence go unfinished.
Oh well I guess when he put it like that it makes sense and it calmed me a little. But I was still standing awkwardly in the doorway.
"What were you doing- I mean why were you- How did you find me?" I asked not sure if he was like stalking me or something.
He looked to me and smiled "I was going to speak about some business with Han when I saw you walking.." he said frowning most likely because of the break down I had that followed soon after.
"Do you want to sit down." He invited
I hesitantly took the steps forward and sat down next to him, I sat stiff as a board but he seemed very relaxed sitting next to me on the couch. I look to the coffee table and saw my bag. I reached forward and checked my phone there were 10 messages from Neela, she was probably worried since I haven't spoken to her since I left the garage. I wasn't sure how long ago that had been a look at the little clock on the phone and it read 1:30 in the morning so I must have slept for around 7 hours. Morimoto did say anything and just watched me which maybe was a little unnerving.
I stood up and coughed awkwardly "I had better leave…." I said, even thought I didn't really have any idea where I was or how I could make it home. But he solved my dilemma by answering,
"I'll drive you" he said standing up and grabbing his keys, striding confidently towards the door.
"What are you waiting for" he looked to me when he was I hadn't moved, he held the door opened as I left his apartment.
He guided me out of his apartment building with his hand lightly pressed on my back, normally I would have been very uncomfortable by someone touching, but after today's events I wasn't so worried. Morimoto had helped me, did nothing too hurt me or creep me out. We walk towards the car in silence and I could only feel his warm hand guiding me down the staircase.
We hopped into his shiny car he had previously used to stalk me to the train station. He opened the door for me and I hoped in. The inside of the car was all decked out with a sound system and TV screen.
He had by then sat down in the driver's seat and beginning speeding through the compact Tokyo streets. After asking for my directions, he drove in comfortable silence, but somehow I think he was doing it just to make me feel better after all tonight had been quite dramatic.
I continued to look in the cars interior and suddenly the screen turned on.
"Wow that's so cool" I said randomly.
He smirked, and reminded me a little more of the flirty Morimoto I had known.
He said nothing but drove faster, skilfully handling the compact Japanese roads, showing off.
"Is your tricky driving supposed to impress me?" I found myself smiling.
"I don't know. Does it?" he said answering back looking at me and not the road but still driving at the break neck speed.
"Morimoto! Look at the road" I yelled.
He only laughed "Why does it make you uncomfortable?"
"Yes because I don't want to die and become a human pretzel around an electricity pole!" I answered
"Only if you admit that my driving impresses you" He teased.
"Fine, Fine! You're driving impresses me!" I yelled. He turned his eyes back to the road satisfied.
He continued to tease me about it the rest of the way home and I found myself giggling with him.
Soon we pulled up to my father's apartment building, I grabbed my bag and hoped out of the car, but before I left I turned to him.
"Thanks, for looking after me and not asking me about it" I said sincerely grateful I didn't have to talk about it right now.
"No problem, but if you wanted to talk about I'd listen. Or I could just impress you some more with my driving skills" he smiled back.
"Thanks" I said once again and began to walk towards the staircase entry. I turned and waved and he did a fancy spin and sped away. I smiled "Show off."
Review please, I love them!
