I didn't need to force myself to go to work in the morning. I was actually glad to get away from my house and get paid for it too. But I couldn't concentrate at work at all. I stayed in my office till 7, which meant that I worked for an extra of 2 hours. I technically worked overtime, when in reality I had just been staring at a wall.

My wall staring session had been interrupted with a knock on my office door.

I waited until the Sun had set and it was dark outside. Nighttime seemed like an appropriate time to do sneaky things. I walked out of my house and heard crickets in nearby bushes. I used to love the nighttime, now it terrifies me.

I walked over to Lucius's front yard. slowly and carefully I made it to the side of his house. I passed by a window and thought that it would be a good opportunity to peek inside. I walk back to the window which I had past and look through it. All I could see was my reflection. I cupped my hands to the window and peered it. I saw something black. The black figure descended as a face faced mine. Lucius's eyes met mine with pure rage.

I ran back and make it to his driveway, but I heard his front door open and felt his arms wrapped around my waist. He pulled me into his house as I screamed in vain. I tried to hit him, I even tried to scratched his eyes out, but my efforts were of no use. He was too strong for me, or maybe he had been too experienced.

He threw me on his wooden floor and shut the door behind him.

"I'm sorry." I said, still lying on the floor.

He pulled out a chair, placed it backwards at about three feet in front of me and sat down without saying a single syllable.

"Lucius... I know that something is going on with you and-"

"What the hell do you know?!" He yelled.

"Besides an arm falling out of your trash bag, not much. But I want you to know-"

"Know what?!" He asked impatiently.

"I want you to know that I'm in."
